Chapter 12: Troubles Through The Trees

[Fair Warning: Cussing/Inappropriate Language will be mentioned in this chapter] 

It's almost been 2 months since the last time I posted a chapter, and I apologize for the long wait. I had to take a quick break from writing stories for a bit. °^°

A lot of the hermits will agree that Cleo was an incredibly big help with watching over the kids, but even our favorite zombie has her limits. From Saturday to Monday, the daycare is left unoccupied and the hermits take time from their bus schedules to watch over their own young hermit/s. 

Wels' usually quiet base ain't quiet no longer. You'd expect high pitched voices of young living beings going crazy and enjoying life as a flesh sack, right? Wrong. Instead it was the sound of the furnace cooking up a meal with a mix of continuous groans coming from the young blonde.

Wels looks up from the furnace and just chuckles. "Falsey, how long are you going to keep glaring at the food like that?" 

Young False quietly whines in return. "I'm bored… Cubby won't play pirates with me!" 

"Well, I can play pirates with you instead," Wels suggested, grabbing two more raw meat from the chest. 

"But Uncle Wels, you're busy cooking?.. 

A smirk slid across the knight's face. " Aye matey, but I 'ave a treasure hunt for ya-" Young False breathes out a sudden giggle as Wels attempted a horrid pirate accent. " What I want ya ta do is to go to account n find me a fish from the bottom of me wooden chest, or it's sleeping with the fishes for ya!"

The young hermit squealed as Wels sprinted towards her for a tickle attack. "AHH- Uncle Welsy!? She escaped from Wels' attack as she sprinted away from the kitchen with a giggle.

False walked across the main hall till she stood before the chest. She quickly opens the chest and dives inside the wooden box, in search of a fish. "I found it!" she exclaimed to no one but herself, grabbing the sea creature and hoping out of the chest. 

"Uncle Wels! I found the f- huh?..False frowned, looking up at the window to find a familiar figure near the forest. She looked around her surroundings for a bit before running towards the door. She quietly exits the house, but grips closer to the door knob, so she would still be considered inside the house. 

"Cubby!" She called out. 

The young pharaoh took notice of his friend, but chose to ignore her. He leaned closer to the tree, his head sticking out from behind the trunk every few seconds, almost like he was spying on something. 

"Cub!?" she called out again, but this time ran across the small grass field and joined him. "Cub, uncle Wels says we can't go outside without him. Wha-" 

"Shhh!" He hushed the young female and proceeded to look back at whatever he was looking at. False leans closer to Cub's arm, peeking at whatever he was peeking at.  

"Why are we whispering?... " 

"I saw something funny looking," Cub chuckled softly..

The two continued to stare at nothing but a sea of trees. It was quiet, it was dull, it  was even more boring than False observing Wels' cooking skills. False wanted to leave the area and go back inside the house, till.. 

" I see something!" False quickly grabbed the closest thing that was attached to Cub and dragged him through the forest. "Eh?- Falsey wAiT-"
