Chapter 77: The Squirrel's Story

“Stop right there, squirrel!” said Klumpkrump.

“NO!” screamed the squirrel, whose voice was high-pitched.

“Explain yourself or I’ll zap you!!” said Mushpuff, showing off his Yalmton bracelet. The squirrel gasped.

“YOU HAVE THE YALMTON BRACELET!” shouted the squirrel.

“Yes, that’s right! And now you have no choice but to explain yourself. And could you please stop shouting?”

“NO!!”

“I’m tellin’ ya, squirrel, we need that thing!” said Klumpkrump, holding up the Energy Cube threateningly.

“AND WHY WOULD THAT BE!!” shouted the squirrel.

“Well, we’re on a quest to defeat some cows, and in order to do that, we need to be powerful, and in order to do that, we need artifacts, and so we are on a quest to collect them so we can take down the cows.”

“BUT THE COWS HAVE THE MOST GRICKLITE OF ANYONE IN THE UNIVERSE!!” screamed the squirrel. “YOU CAN’T POSSIBLY KILL THEM!!”

“Yes we can, squirrel!” said Klumpkrump.

“NOT WITH AN ARMY OF TEN THOUSAND SQUIRRELS COULD YOU DO IT!” shouted the squirrel matter-of-faculously.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

“So why are you stealing this artifact, yo?” asked Bird.

“IT’S A LONG STORY!” yelled the squirrel.

“Tell it to us or face our wrath,” said Plagiarize, holding up his normal fist and his spider fist.

“Fine,” said the squirrel.

“Thank god he stopped shouting,” said Mushpuff.

“IT ALL STARTED A FEW MONTHS AGO,” shouted the squirrel. “I was a normal squirrel. But one day, I decided to buy cashews from the store! I walked in with my money. Cashews costed one cent each! I bought three thousand of them! Later that week, I was enjoying my cashews when ALL OF A SUDDEN, some police officers showed up and accused me of stealing! As it turned out, the store was supposed to be selling those cashews at ten cents each, and instead of letting themselves get in trouble, they ACCUSED ME OF STEALING!!! THOSE DIRTY HUMANS!!”

“Wow, that is so unfair,” said Klumpkrump. “I really connect with you, squirrel.”

“SHUT UP!!” yelled the squirrel. “I’M THE ONE TELLING THIS STORY!!”

“Jeez, okay,” said Klumpkrump.

“Now WHERE WAS I?!?!”

“You just mentioned that the humans accused you of stealing?” said Klumpkrump.

“Oh yeah! Then I ran from the police!” continued the squirrel. “Out of the country. I stole a spaceship and escaped Earth. They haven’t found me yet, but I KNOW THEY’RE COMING!!! SO I NEED TO BE PREPARED!!!”

“So how did you end up here?” asked Snorter.

“I was almost out of fuel when I came here. I found refuge with 22 bears, and they offered to protect me. I live with them now. But they JUST GOT ATTACKED, and I think it’s THE POLICE AND THEY’VE FOUND ME!! So now I’m GETTING OUT!!! BY WHATEVER MEANS NECESSARY!!”

“How are you escaping if your ship is almost out of fuel?” asked Bird.

“The bears gave me fuel!! Now I’m getting OUT OF HERE!” said the squirrel, turning to leave through a door on the opposite side of the room.

“Wait!” said Bird.

“WHAT??” screamed the squirrel. “I GOTTA GO!!”

“...can we come with you, yo?”
