(Hey.. I know I've said that the next chapter was going to be "coming soon", I'm sorry. Its just that this chapter was very hard to write, but I think I got the chapter to a point on which I am comfortable, Now that I've got over this rough path I think it'll be smooth sailing from here, But I cant promise anything.)

Update: I fixed all the HORRIBLE grammar, (For the most part) and added extra details

Third Person POV:
____________________________________

Randy hesitated for a moment before finishing is sentence, But feeling his friend's gazes burning into him, he took one last look around the room and took a deep breath,

"...But... we... uh..." The ram stammered on his words,

Before he could manage to squeeze out any words, Kevin, always quicker with words, spoke up on his behalf. "We found a human. A real, live human!"

After the rabbit blurted out the news, a long silence ran out in the kitchen, Randy's gaze dropped almost immediately to avoid their gaze, but could still feel it burning into his skull.

"Dammit... I should have known this was a bad idea, I should've just let that thing go when we had the chance" He thought while biting the inside of his cheek

After gathering some courage, Randy slowly lifted his head
glanced around the room again to see their reactions. Their expressions ranged from the expected disbelief to hints of shock, casting a palpable tension upon the room. The weird scent seemed to fade into the background, momentarily forgotten.

Tammy's reaction was a mix of surprise and unease. She looked at the two with wide, uncertain eyes. She swiped quick glances at the others as if she seeking some sort of validation or reassurance while not saying anything.

Right next to the wolf was the white cat Ella, Her reaction was different from her friend, she had her arms folded with skepticism etched across her face as she shot the ram and rabbit with a disbelieving stare as her tail swished slowly.

Looking over at Owen, he appeared genuinely shocked by their news. His eyes widened as he tried to process it. He opened his muzzle like he was about to say something before shutting it. but the way he looked at them wasn't like he believed the rabbit, But instead it was a look of disbelief, as if he thought they had lost their minds.

And lastly, Jacob. The look on his face says that he didn't believe them at all. His muzzle turned into a frown as he looked at Kevin and Randy with a mixture of disbelief and annoyance. His fur seemed to bristle, and his tail wagging from laziness earlier now hung stiff and still as he leaned against the kitchen island.

"Come on, Really Kevin? don't mess with us, I thought this was going to be something actually real," Jacob spoke up, breaking the silence.

"Right, how dumb do you think we are to believe that?" Ella joined in with an annoyed look.

Kevin, however, was determined to make them see the truth. "B-But it's true! We found a human!"

" Oh Yeah sure you did.." Jacob said in a overly sarcastic tone while nodding

Ella added her dose of doubt. "Kevin, seriously, I've known you for at least a year now, and you've pulled some stupid pranks similar to this before. But this time I honestly cannot believe you'd expect us to buy into this."

Randy couldn't stay silent any longer as he spoke up Much to Kevin's relief "Look, I know it sounds insane, Believe me, I do. But I promise you we're not making this up."
