The Croods (Male!Eep x Reader)

Ch°1 : The Beginning

                                                               ________________________________

Once upon a time, well, an old time, there lived a family, The Croods.

The family wasn't ordinary, you see, as they were a family of cavemen, composed of an elderly woman, two adults, two sons, a daughter and a baby. 

" Daughter " was a little bit far fetched as she was taken in by Grug, the father and Ugga, the mother, when they found the girl as a babe, hidden away in a dry bush, about to be eaten by a bear owl.

This beautiful girl with soft (s/c) skin, and (long/short) (h/c) hair, was named (Y/N). And let's just say that the second Eep's eyes fell on (Y/N)'s, he fell in love, and he fell hard.

"With every sun comes a new day. A new beginning."

There on a cracked, stone wall, rose a shiny yellow drawn sun.

"A hope that things will be better today than they were yesterday."

And suddenly, a boy with firey tossled hair appeared on it.

"But not for me. My name is Eep. And this..."

Mere seconds later, six new figures appeared next to him.

"Is my family, The Croods. If you weren't clued in already by the animal skins and sloping foreheads, we're cavemen."

A nearby animalistic noise was heard by the father, who by fright, quickly pushed the rest of his family into a small cave, where he sealed the entrance with a giant rock.

"Most days we spend in our cave, in the dark. Night after night. Day after day. Yep, home sweet home."

As the father pushed the rock aside, he ushered his family out.

"When we did go out, we struggled to find food in a harsh and hostile world"

The family ran off to find substenence, but instead, kept being chased by large predators.

"And I struggled to survive my family."

Eep stood on a branch with his "beloved", starring lovingly without her notice, when the rest of his family came and stood next to them, only for the branch to break.

"We were the last ones around. There used to be neighbours. The Gorts, smashed by a mammoth. The Horks, swallowed by a sand snake. The Erfs, mosquito bite. Throgs, common cold."

Scared at the sight of their neighbours dying, the drawings of the family backed away and bumped against the back of a bear owl.

"And the Croods, that's us."

The bear owl, just as it was about to eat them, was thrown away thanks to the father, only for it to get back up and chase them again.

"The Croods made it, because of my dad. He was strong, and he followed the rules."

Backed up in the cave, the family gasps in fear as the animal scratches the door.

"The ones painted on the cave walls. Anything new is bad, curiosity is bad. Going out at night is bad. Basically, anything fun is bad."

The wall slowly turns red, as painting handprints are obscurring the "bad" ideas.

"Welcome to my world !"

The stone wall suddenly and slowly cracks over the paintings.

"But this is a story about how all that changed in an instant. Because what we didn't know was that our world...was about to come to an end. And there were no rules on our cave walls to prepare us for that."

Hello everyone ! After a few years of no writing, I decide to write again. 

It has been tough for me as I was BAMBOOZLED by a lot of things these past few years (such as graduating with depression, moving away, getting into uni, and much more).

I have made a promise to myself now that if I start something, I must also see it through the end.

So I will be updating this fanfic and the fanfics to come every week, on saturday, with 3 chapters.

So enjoy it !
