"AAAAH WHAT THE HELL!" The thing that jumped out of the bushes scared the hell out of me. My hand reached to my heart and I turned around. But the thing wasn't scary at all. It had big, black, sparkling eyes and it looked like a marshmallow with hands and feet. It waddled around towards Torin and me. It had trouble keeping its balance. It looked at me and screamed as well, but didn't back away. It actually looked amused. It smiled at me. I smiled back and looked at Torin.
"Isn't it cute!" I exclaimed. In the corner of my eye I saw Faith playing with it.
"Come here buddy!" I said. The little marshmallow looked at Faith and waddle-ran towards me. It sat down right in front of me and reached its little arms out to me. I picked it up.
"Hello buddy!" I said.
"Kello!" He said. I melted. His voice sounded like a minion voice, but a little softer. I looked at the others. Faith looked at the little marshmallow with love. Mo had big eyes as he looked at the marshmallow from a distance.
"Should we ask him questions?" I asked. Faith nodded.
"Yes! We could bring this one along as well!" She exclaimed. I smiled and looked down to the creature in my arms. He smiled at me.
"Can I ask you some questions?" I asked.
"Ba!" The little one exclaimed while clapping his hands.
"I guess that's a yes! Now, are you a girl?" I continued.
"Po!" The marshmallow said, shaking his head. I looked at Faith.
"What should we call him?" I asked.
"How about Bo? Fits with Mo." Torin said. I looked at the little guy.
"What do you say, huh?" I asked. He started clapping his hands.
"Ba, ba!" He said. I laughed.
"Bo it is!" I looked over at Mo. I put Bo down and signed to Mo to come over. He carefully waddled over to me. He softly sniffed in Bo's direction. Soon, he gave Bo a big hug. They started playing together. I giggled happily.
"They seem to be getting along just fine!" I said.
"Did you know that Bo's species is called adipose?" Faith said.
"That's a cute name." I replied. Faith cutely smiled. Suddenly, a loud roar came from deep in the forest, followed by some sort of earthquake-like phenomena.
"Shit! Forest giants!" Torin exclaimed. We took all our stuff. Torin grabbed my arm and I quickly grabbed Faith's. We all ran away as far as we could. The ground kept shaking.
"We're not going to outrun them!" I yelled.
"We don't have to!" Torin said. I gave him a confused look.
"What do you mean?" I said.
"We just have to make them tired!"
