Chapter 2 Frozen consequences

Ferret looked upon the ice cube-covered street with a sense of triumph. Ferret sat down in the epicenter of the ice explosion thinking about the past day. the cold winds blowing past Ferret as he sat there still thinking.

Multiple hamsters had made it out of their houses to investigate the sounds of Ferrets fight, but all they witnessed was Ferret sitting in the middle of the road, surrounded by pieces of ice and small puddles of water.

Ferret got up from his resting place looking back down at his special note, it still said iceberg lettuce and ketchup, but the buy part was gone. ‘interesting’ he thought, now curious on how to continue to develop the notes text.

But for now all Ferret needed was sleep. He stood up from his resting place to go back home. Ferret started to gather his things that were now scattered across the street.

He picked up all his belongings, the ketchup, the special lettuce and packed it into his bag. and at last the journey home started.

As Ferret made his way back the same way he came, he passed the alleway were a hamster had been mugged

Now all that remained was torn clothes and a puddle of what could only be red wine.

Ferret feeling bad went in the alley to the pile to say sorry for not helping. But before he could say anything the two rats appeared from under a trash can

-We got you now

-we really did, did we not

-What do you want, ferret said not phased by the two thugs in front of him

-everything

-yes all you own.

-sorry that's a negative. ferret felt surprised at his newfound confidence

But as soon as one of the rats pulled out a small sword, every inch of confidence vanished instantly

-What do you want, please let me go. ferret said now a very respectable amount of scared in his voice

-all you own

-yup

-But i don't own anything,

-Then we will take your

-Life…

One of the rats looked at the other rat

-That was my line you filthy pest

-How dare you call me that and also its my turn today

-No its always your turn i wanted to do it today

-You imbecile you will pay

-with your life.. wait wrong line

One of the rats lunged at the other, short sword in hand. The rat had no time to react as his upper body was penetrated by the sharp object, red liquid started gushing out of the chest wound as the rat fell to the floor.

-Is he dead? Ferret asked as if the danger was gone.

-WhaT No HE iS AlIvE AnD WeLl. the rat said in the most sarcastic tone there is.

Both rodents now looking at the bloody and fuzzy pile of dead rat.

-Is he tho? Ferret genuinely asked.

The rat gave ferret the most disapointed look that screamed, you must be very stupid.

-You are joking right? the rat said now more concerned for ferrets well being

-What is there to joke about when he is only on the ground, he can wake up right. ferret said in a monotone voice

The rat now glaring at Ferret - You must be the most stupid being i have ever met

-That sounds like an insult that's not nice.

-i just stabbed someone and you are worrying about me insulting you?? He said dumbfounded.

-Why would I not worry about your insults? They were very mean.

-I can't.

-What is it you can't? Ferret asked

-I'm done with you, please leave me alone. The rat said on the verge of tears.

-Oh, alright but I did think this was nice exep the part where you insulted me but we can look past that fact. Ferret said in a happy tone.

The rat is now actually crying -What are you? you are like the devil's hellspawn.

-Im just a normal Hamster.

-I will do anything if you just leave me alone.

-Anything you say.

The rat has tears streaming down his rodent nose but still shows massive signs of fear to the friendly hamster Ferret.

-Yes, please just leave me.

-I want a bag to store my groceries.

The rat instantly got a blank expression and just stared into the brick wall behind Ferret.

-A bag………..

-Yup that's all. Ferret said still visibly happy

The rat turned around and picked up a plastic bag from the trash can.

-here you go, now please go. The rat said now visibly dead on the inside.

-Yes thank you.

Ferret then turned around and marched out the alley putting his things in the dirty grocery bag. Ketchup check, Iceberg lettuce check, The note check,

As soon as Ferret left the ally he heard a scream in agony as if someone had experienced a great deal of emotional pain.

Ferret continued his treck to get home. walking on all the familiar dirt roads of his home area.

As he yet again passed the weird hat man’s cart, but he was nowhere to be seen.

“strange he thought that man would never let a business opportunity go to waste”

Ferret had finally made it to his cozy house. It was located in a small clearing in between all the massive trees. Ferret opened the door to his house and proudly stepped in only to be greeted by Tiffany talking to another male hamster.
