I do not own Chicken Little. Chicken Little is owned by Disney. I only lay claim to Chauncey Cheetah, Chester Cheetah, Chelsie Cheetah, and Chip Cheetah.

Chapter 6

"You're an only child, right?" Chicken Little asked the cheetah.

"Yes. However, I really don't mind as I've got you guys to hang out with," Chauncey smiled.

The group was heading to the living room as they talked. Once they entered the living room, Chicken Little and his friends were immediately stunned. In the back of the living room was the biggest TV they had ever seen. Surrounding the TV were huge, comfortable couches with armrests and small tables for food and drink. In the middle of the TV and the couches was a beautiful, shiny crystal chandelier.

"That is one big TV," Runt pointed out.

"It's a ninety-inch flat screen TV. Very high-quality balance of colors and HD cinema," Chauncey said.

"Ninety inches?! How many feet is that?" Abby wondered.

"Seven feet and six inches," the cheetah responded.

"You're pretty smart Chauncey," Chicken Little complimented.

The cheetah smiled.

"What movie are we going to watch?" The chicken asked.

"It's all up to you guys. You're the guests," Chauncey suggested.

"What movies do you have?" Chicken Little wondered.

"We have pretty much every movie. There's The Avengers, Spider-Man, Ironman, Captain America, The Lion King, Finding Nemo, Aladdin, Tarzan, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Batman, Pirates of the Caribbean, Rise of the Guardians, Shrek, you name it," the cheetah explained.

"What about Zootopia? That one's good," Fish tried to say.

"Fish asked if you have Zootopia," Chicken Little said.

"Oh yeah! Zootopia is one of my favorites. You guys want to watch that one?" Chauncey asked.

Everyone nodded.

"Alright. Zootopia it is!" The cheetah exclaimed as he placed the Blu-Ray disk into his Xbox One.

"Before we start the movie, is there anything you guys would like to eat or drink while we watch the movie? We've got lots of snacks and drinks to choose from," Chauncey said.

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

"I'd like an orange soda and popcorn please," Chicken Little smiled.

"Of course!" Chauncey beamed.

"Water and a bag of chips please," Runt requested.

"You got it!" The cheetah smiled.

"For me, I guess I'd like a grape soda and popcorn please," Abby grinned.

"Sure thing!" Chauncey stated as he went to the kitchen to grab everyone's snacks and drinks. Soon he and his butler returned with them. Chauncey was carrying everyone's drinks, while Chip carried the snacks. The young cheetah had gotten a container of almonds and a bottle of chocolate milk for himself.

As soon as everyone was settled, the group started the movie.

After the movie had concluded and everyone had pizza for dinner, the cheetah was showing them around the mansion once again. Chauncey, however, decided to wait until the time was right to show them something his friends had not seen yet.

"Guys, I'd like you to see my secret room," Chauncey said.

"Secret room? What's in it?" Chicken Little wondered.

"Oh you'll see. There are some awesome things in there I'm very happy to have, but I haven't had a chance until now to show it to someone else," the cheetah explained.

They were led down the stairs from the first floor to the basement. Soon they were in front of a door, the only door that was on the way down the stairs.

"This is where the magic happens," Chauncey winked as he opened the door.

Chicken Little and his friends were astonished at what they saw next. Along the shelves of the walls were many basketball trophies and medals. At the back of the room were two arcade basketball machines, each with a high score of ninety-nine. That was the maximum score anyone could get due to the fact the scoreboard for each machine had just two digits.

However, the thing that surprised Chicken Little and his friends the most was what lied in the middle of the room.

In the middle of the room was a huge, metal rolling ball sculpture encased in a square-shaped exhibit. At the bottom of the tall metal swirl elevator were sixteen billiard balls. The 4-ball and 12-ball were pink, and the 7-ball and 15-ball were light brown, while the usually white cue ball had a few red dots on it.

"Wow! This is so cool Chauncey! Never knew you had something like this," the chicken smiled.

"Thanks Chicken Little. I had never shown this room to anyone other than my parents and Chip until now. Guess I decided it was about time I revealed it to the world," the cheetah winked.

Chicken Little couldn't help but chuckle. "Were you in like a youth basketball league or something?"

The cheetah nodded. "Yes, I was. The good old days. We won a lot of championships during the time I played for them, and I was named MVP every time. The season typically ran from the start of Winter Break in December until the end of July. Championship games were usually held at a very special arena where the pros play. I started playing for them when I was the minimum age required to be in it, which was when I was five, until this past summer. I'm twelve now, and that is the maximum age you can be to participate in the league. Everyone knew me for my shooting skills and how I would always get hot and carry my team to victory. Keep in mind though I never wanted to score every single point for my team. I cared very deeply about getting my teammates involved as well. That is something I must do to be the new leader of the boys' basketball team."

Everyone smiled at the cheetah's selflessness. Would his caring personality be enough for him to be a great leader? Surely it had to be.

"You should turn on the rolling ball sculpture!" Runt said.

"Of course, Runt! I must admit this thing is the best thing my parents had ever got me. It's perfect for killing time whenever you're bored," the cheetah stated as he went to a switch on the wall and turned on the sculpture.

After watching the sculpture for about two hours, it was time for Chicken Little and his friends to return home. Chauncey said goodbye to everyone, and happily waved as he watched their parents drive them off into the beautiful, clear night.
