Stories From The Swamp

"Shellington, would you like to read the next one."

"Um," The marine biologist rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly, the memory of the incident where he dropped the tablet still fresh in his memory, but to his
dismay (and delight) a crowd of Vegimals waddled up to him and stared up at him with big pleading eyes, and he caved.

"Oh, alright." He chuckled as the Vegimals cheered and wrapped their tiny flippers around his ankles.

"From @DolphinGirl123456, Question For Tweak: What is your family history? and Why did you live in the Everglades?"Tweak put her paw to her mouth, letting her mind roll the question around before answering.

"I am no expert on my family history, I'm sorry." Tweak said finally, "But I know that my grandparents on my dad's side were carrot farmers, but my pa chose to be a Park Ranger instead. I never knew my momma well enough though, she left my dad when I was just a little bunny."

"How old were you?" Peso asked nervously, but his eyes were full of love and sympathy for his friend.

"Two, I guess. I wasn't old enough to remember anything, that's for sure." Tweak responded, "As for the second question, I lived in the Everglades with my dad cos he was and still is a Park Ranger for the Everglades. I lived with him cos, well, I love my Pa, and I wouldn't want to leave him alone like that, if that answers your question."

Tweak barely had time to finish her sentence before all the Vegimals rushed up to her, wrapped her in a hug, and started chattering.

"Oh," Shellington's smile was warm and seemed to hide his desire to melt into a puddle at whatever the Vegimals had just said, "They're saying that they're sorry that you don't have a mummy, and they want you to be their mummy if you can."

Tweak softened and she bent down to stroke the heads of the sweet little sprouts currently smiling up at her from her shins.

"I want to be your momma too, but I'm too young, I'll have to settle for being your older sister right about now. This seemed to please the Vegimals, and they happily gave her one last squeeze and ran off to play.

"Soooooo," Kwazii cut in, "What do we do now?"

Everyone was sitting on the beanbags in the Game Pod, slouched with large bags of boredom weighing them down.

"I'm BORED!" Kwazii complained for the 500th time in 5 minutes.

"Oh, we all know you are, you've been saying nothing but that for the last 10 minutes or so!" Tweak grouched, out of clothing items to throw at him. Everyone winced and prepared themselves for what would come next. Soon, words thrown across the room began to overlap each other, and a screaming orange cat went flying across the room.

"I'm out of here, mates!" Kwazii shrieked and leaped into the Octochute. The Captain put his paws on his temples and sighed,

"We really need to invest in health insurance for that cat." And no one could disagree at all.
