Chapter 12: To The Park

(Thanks for the cover art, @TheUnk0wn!)

*Fuzz's POV*

I wake up to smell Ice's scent on top of me.

"Get up!" Ice mewed excitedly. "We're going to the park!" I got up, and yawned.

"Why are we going there?" I asked, but the fact that we were going to the park made me excited. I remember when my dad used to take us to the park, and we'd eat all the leftover food in those big silver cylinders.

"Um, for..." Ice said, but he trailed off. "For good exercise! Right, good exercise." I cocked my head.

"Are you okay?" I asked him, and I felt his breathing get quicker.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm totally fine." I replied quietly. "I'm just so excited about exercise! Yay, exercise!"

I could tell Ice was keeping a secret, but I didn't argue. Maybe he has a neat surprise for us there!

"Is Turtle coming?" I asked hopefully, thinking back to the night before. I never realized how much I liked her...

"Of course she's coming!" Ice meowed. "We need a quick person to help get Mous- I mean, the mouse. Yeah, a mouse for dinner." I raised my eyebrows, confused.

Is something wrong with Ice today?

....

We arrived at the park a half an hour later, and Turtle gasped for breath.

"Why did you choose the park?" She complained to Ice. "It's so far away from our nests!"

"Exercise." Ice responded. What is with Ice and exercise these days?

"Maybe we could find one of those silver cylinders," I mewed quietly. "They're full of leftover snacks that humans didn't finish."

"Sure," Ice meowed, and I pictured my friends licking their chops. We strolled over to the cylinder, and I could tell because the stench was stronger than it was a minute ago.

I heard it clatter to the ground, and it nearly spooked me out of my fur. I forced it down, and felt Turtle pass me a chip bag. I sniffed it, and took a bite of out a chip.

"Yum!" I exclaimed, and buried my head into the goodness. Suddenly, I heard Ice gasp quietly.

"What's wrong?" I asked, and Turtle snorted in disbelief.

"Impossible! Mouse can't be alive!" She mewed. "I saw her. How did she survive?"

"I don't care how she survived," Ice said impatiently. "Let's go save her!" I heard paw steps pad away from me, and I followed.

Is Mouse really alive?
