not exactly an update, but heres a little photo of Lemonzest and Syrup's kids-

Staja is on the left, Paradise in the middle and Tikere on the right (unfortunately my random generator made all three of them cursed-)

Staja has some serious issues, Paradise is withdrawn from his family and tribe because he's horrified of hurting people, and Tikere is a twitchy baby who can barely keep his thoughts straight (thats not his curse, but its basically how he copes with it)

The random generator is merciless

Staja sighed, dragging his claws through the dirt. Something felt wrong-very wrong. He felt...empty. He was craving something, but for the life of him, he couldn't figure out what.

"Staja?"

He whipped his head around, locking eyes with his brother. Paradise seemed concerned, giving him a worried look from where he sat a few feet away, still a good distance from his brothers. He was probably scared of hurting them-Staja wasn't surprised, he was a little fearful of his brother ever since that incident with Tafune's brother when they were younger.

"Are you okay?"

Staja shook his head to clear the thoughts, trying to distract himself from the strange feeling.

"I'm fine."

"Are you sure?"

Tikere piped up from beside Staja, flinching when he shot him a look.

"You've just been-ngh-spacing off."

Tikere seemed even more concerned, although that wasn't new to see on his brother. He was twitching, ears turning every which way and his left hindleg thumping rapidly against the ground like a rabbit-a nervous tick he had. Staja was getting sick of the noise.

"I said I'm fine!" He snapped, causing Tikere to fall backwards with a small scream. He scoffed at his brother, before turning away and walked off to a different part of an island and ignoring Paradise's calls.

He really hated them sometimes.

 

"Hello?"

Staja stiffened, looking behind him. A small, red nicheling stared up at him with sightless grey eyes, resting her paws on his back.

"Do you know where sister went? She said she was going hunting, but she hasn't come back in a while."

"Who's your sister?"

"Palace."

"The one with the funky broken paw? How the hell does she even manage to hunt with that? she can barely walk properly-oh, no kid, I haven't seen her."

The child merely nodded, dropping her paws and laying down right next to him. Her gaze was locked on the far distance, although she obviously couldn't see it.

Staja suddenly felt some sort of...urge. Before he even knew what he was doing, he lurched forward, grabbing the little nicheling by the back of her neck. 

Her head shot up, but before she could get a word in, Staja tossed her to the ground. His jaws shot out, grabbing her hindleg and and twisting it to the right.

A scream and a crack echoed through the air, and he felt himself return to his senses. Even he was horrified at what lay in front of him. The child was on the ground, sobbing her eyes out-the place where her hindleg should have been was now just a bloody stump, and Staja gagged when he realized he was still holding it, immediately dropping the limb to the ground.

He opened his mouth to say something, anything, to apologize maybe? He didn't know.

But before he could get a word out, a searing pain shot through his face, and he stumbled back with a scream, clutching his eye with one paw. Peach crouched down next to the child, clearly panicking. He assumed she was the one who scratched him.

"Appleseed! What happened?!" Her voice bordered on hysterical, eyes wide with tears slowly filling them.

She didn't get a response, as expected from what just happened to the poor kid. Staja pulled his paw away from his eye, breath quickening when he realized that he couldn't see out of it.

He decided to get out of there before Peach killed him.

"Cherry? What's that noise?"

Cherry looked down from her spot on the tree, smirking when she saw Meara glaring at her with a question in her eyes.

She unfolded her wings, showing a baby splayed out in her nest.

"Oh nothing, just Crackle."

Meara blinked, looking thoroughly confused. "Crackle? Since when did you have kids? Hell, since when did you have a mate?"

"Oh, I don't. I just borrowed yours."

"What?" Meara froze, catching on to what she meant all too well.

Cherry snickered, spreading her wings and flying off to chat with Wisteria.

 

[Katumai]

"Has anyone seen Wisteria?"

Posh shook her head, grabbing a few more berries and handing them to her mother.

"I can't exactly see anything, Cream. But no, not lately."

"Tikere?"

"S-sorry, I-ngh-haven't seen her either."

Cream looked at the tree in thought, Unless and Tikere hadn't seen her friend either...

Feeling a small nudge, she looked down, smiling as Posh stared back at her. 

"Yes honey?"

Posh didn't say anything, just held out her paws, a flower gently cupped in them.

Cream's smile softened, and she carefully took the flower from her paws, gingerly putting it in the fur on her shoulder.

"Thanks fluffy." She pulled Posh closer, nuzzling her daughter. Posh just smiled back-she hadn't spoken a word in her life, Cream was concerned at first, but there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the child.

Cream went back to speaking with Unless and Tikere, not noticing her daughter wander away and into the tall grass.

(and yes, Cream's nickname for her daughter is 'fluffy')

WARNING:// ANOTHER GRAPHIC CHAPTER. THIS ONE IS PROBABLY WORSE THAN THE LAST ONE. SERIOUSLY, IM WARNING YOU.

 

 

 

Posh wandered through the grass, occasionally stopping to watch a rabbil or look at some flowers.

The field emanated an eerie vibe, making her fur stand on end. That, and the unsettling cracking noises coming from somewhere ahead of her.

Although she was definitely scared, the curiosity outweighed the fear, and she pushed forward.

As the sounds got louder, she slowed down, barely creeping forward. 

She stopped just by the shore, narrowing her eyes to try and get a good look at whatever was ahead.

There was a nicheling-no, Staja-half in the water, crouched over something. That's where the snapping and cracking was coming from.

As she looked even closer, she could barely see white paws peeking out from in front of him. Now that was unnerving.

Taking one more step forward, she suddenly lost her footing, tumbling forward.

There was a horrifying moment of silence as Staja froze, still faced away from Posh and crouched.

Then, he turned around, giving her a manic grin. She stumbled backwards as he slowly stalked towards her, watching the blood drip from his jaws and each step sounding ear-piercing in the silence.

 

Within seconds, he was looming over her, that same terrifying grin on his face.

Posh looked away for just a second. Only a second-she just wanted to see what he was doing.

She nearly gagged.

Wisteria-or, what was left of her-lay in the water, barely recognizeable. All the spikes on her back had been violently ripped off, her head was caved in-and...

The entire back of her neck was devoid of any flesh or skin, the bone very visible through all the blood. Both of her hindlegs were completely torn off, and she could barely catch a glimpse of the limbs-also nearly stripped clean-laying a few feet away.

Looking back up at Staja, she started shaking violently, feeling like she couldn't breathe.

Staja leaned down, face barely inches away from hers, still smiling as he whispered.

"You should probably run, little girl."

 

And she did.

All the way back home.

Back to her mother.

And she was still terrified, even as her mother held her in her arms and asked her what happened as she sobbed-

She was still terrified.

He was coming for her.

Oh no- that is definitely not good

[Katumai]

Everyone leaves to the next island, with most of the older nichelings staying behind-although Cream insists on coming with her daughter.

 

After heartfelt and tearful goodbyes, the travelling nichelings set off...

 

And begin their new journey.
