Kyles Joi's Fanfiction Corner (Sparrow)

We got angst in this chapter.

Better Forrest ducked into a secluded part of the zoo where no one else was around. "Sparrow!" He called in a hushed whisper-yell. "Sparrow, are you here?"

"Yeah," Instead of a possum coming out of the shadows, it was a teenager who looked identical to Robin Ha. "Couldn't you think of a less obvious fake name than Sparrow for me? You literally gave yourself the fake name Beauregard Zen Ryouma von Granzreich vi Vespaland. It looks like you also managed to return to human form. Has Myles suspected anything yet?"

"No," Better Forrest. "I'm still pretending to be some random rat from this universe that coincidentally looks like Forrest Lee. He doesn't know that I'm actually the Forrest Lee from his universe,"

"Fortunately, we returned to our human forms," Sparrow, who was actually the Robin Ha from Myles' universe, said. "Some weird beam started transforming some animals into humans. I'm just worried that we'll eventually revert back to our rat and our possum forms,"

"Myles..." Better Forrest said sadly. "Myles had a nightmare last night about our 'deaths.' Kenny calmed him down and comforted him,"

"You can tell him the truth if you want," Sparrow suggested.

"No!" Better Forrest vehemently shook his head. "Not until we find Sam. If we tell him 'Hey Myles, we survived. The explosion caused some of your equipment to malfunction and we ended up in this universe but had transformed into animals. Oh, but we don't know where your son is. Since we're alive then he must also be alive, but he's five years old and all alone.' Robin, we can't face him until we also find Sam!"

"We will find him, Forrest," Sparrow placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. 

"He's been alone for three years," Better Forrest fell to his knees. "That's more than half his life. Since  he's young, does he even remember us? Does he even remember his dad? What if he actually behaves like a wild animal? We don't even know what animals he is! What if he had been transformed into a...a fish? What if he got eaten!? What if he's already dead!?"

"Don't say such things!" Sparrow told him. "Calm down, Forrest! I'm sure Sam's fine! He's Myles' son, so he's strong. He's alive and we just have to find him,"

"Is he even in this universe?" Better Forrest sighed. "It's just...it's been so long. I'm losing hope, Robin. It also hurts to see Myles like that too. Even though he believes we've been dead for the past three years, he's still traumatized and haunted. I'm just glad at least the Kenny Ji of this universe is there for him,"

"Grape," Forrest Lee asked. "Do you have a brother?"

"Other than being pseudo-adopted as Better Forrest's and Fireball's brother, then no," Grape answered. "I don't have any biological siblings either,"

"So this raccoon isn't one of Myles' kids?" Robin pointed at the raccoon with a dark purple and light purple fur pattern. 

"Not that I know of," Grape shrugged. "It's just me, a rat, and a fire tortoise,"

The raccoon made a grabbing motion towards Forrest and Robin.

"So we should just ignore it, right?" Forrest asked. "It has nothing to do with us anyway,"

The raccoon began to tear up when Forrest and Robin began to walk away. He tried to run after them but ended up tripping. Tears welled up in his eyes. 'Uncle Forrest? Uncle Robin?'

Grape, who hadn't immediately followed after Forrest and Robin, noticed the tears.

Myles' son and friends are alive!
