Blizzard Blowout 64

Chapter 1

Akaman.

He was the tallest, and proudest of them all.

A snowman...

In fact, he was so proud he decided to move to the mountains.

In his tiny home, he now stretched his arms a little.

"Haha; indeed very beautiful."

He smiled at it-- a tiny picture on his left.

He'd imagined his first friend saying it again as he once did a long time ago...

Unlike him, Akaman was tiny. And a snowman. 

This friend was both ripped and confident.

"It's a tiny picture, hm... like no other," the second guy would say. This guy would give Akaman a thumbs-up for the good work he'd done.

He, however, was squeezed almost out of the picture entirely!

Akaman remembered adjusting the Polaroid camera a little so everyone would fit correctly, but a quarter of this friend's face was lost out of the frame.

"Welp," the third would shake his head. "It's the... um... I hate to break it to ya dude— but erm... it's the only picture you have."

They would all burst into a gentle laugh, including Akaman— who did it out of painful scorn— as the camera would flash, taking the selfie...

And the quick flash ending so fast was like a few months that flew by so fast...

Everyone searched their hearts—and Akaman too.

However, he did the unthinkable— left for the mountains.

All the villagers thought he was out of his mind, and his friends said he needed a little sleep to think through it all.

He'd been walking back and forth— thinking of meeting his long, lost parents.

He was never gonna give them up.

"Where could they be?" he'd ask nervously, pacing up and down all over the living room. "Who could they be? I have too many questions."

"You're crazy!" and the friend would poke his forehead.

*POOF!*

Akaman's tiny portion of his snowy forehead would fall off without pain...

"But dude," Akaman'd say concerned, looking at the mirror. "I've been practicing every day— exercising! I reckon that maybe... I don't know— I'll find a clue at the peak or something."

"There's no need." The friend would say in a hushed voice. "To risk your life, all for the sake of... Just stay here and make everyone happy, please."

"My parents could be in danger; I can't let that happen,

"I need to go and look for them, man!"
