Farm Days (One-shot) (English)

[...]

One night, almost before spring, at the Chickin Sanctuary, Molly was about to go to sleep, Rocky was already putting her to bed.

–Dad, can I ask you a question?– Molly said, tucked into her nest, ready to go to sleep.

–Of course, what do you want to ask?– Rocky said as he tucked Molly in.

–How was your life like before you met mum?– Molly asked, Rocky was stunned when he heard that question.

–W-well, honey, you know, I was a circus animal, they pulled me out of a cannon and made me fly...– Rocky said a little nervously, but Molly interrupted her.

–No, I mean what your life was like before the circus, you know, when you were young– Molly said, she was curious to know if Rocky came to be on a farm like Ginger, or if he was directly raised in the circus.

Rocky remained silent again, he didn't want to remember those days again, he just wanted to avoid that question –...It's late, Molly, you should sleep now–

–Don't you want to talk about it?–

–Just, good night, okay?–

–...Good night– and with that, Rocky kissed Molly on the forehead and retired, leaving her to sleep peacefully.

When Rocky left Molly's room, he was nervously fingering the corner of his beak. For years he had wanted to avoid talking about his life, he just wanted to focus on the new one he had with Ginger, but now that he had remembered that...

–Rocky, are you okay?– Ginger asked, passing her wing in front of Rocky's eyes, taking him out of his thoughts and returning him to reality.

–Huh?...O-oh! Yeah, I'm fine Ginger– Rocky said, coming to, still a little dazed –I was just, you know, too deep in thought, that's all–

Ginger chuckled and gave Rocky a kiss on the cheek –I'm already sleepy, I'm going to go to bed, okay?–

–I'll be right away–

Ginger soon lay down in her nest, Rocky following her to do the same and giving her a little kiss goodnight before she fell asleep. That night, Rocky had difficulty sleeping, since he couldn't get his past out of his head, he didn't like where he came from or who he was before being "the lone free ranger", he just wanted to be happy with the good husband and father that he was in the present...

The next day...

The sanctuary hens were preparing to go on their next mission, they had detected a chicken farm in the northwest of the island, it seemed to be a farm where they treated the chickens well and free range, but even so, they were going to make sure that no human was doing anything bad to those poor hens.

Ginger's team would infiltrate by land, while another team would infiltrate by air, that is, using the cloud-shaped ship, they would infiltrate the house to see if they were treating the chickens well or not, Ginger's team would interrogate the hens.

Ginger's team was hiding among some trees near the farm, seeing how the chicken coops did not have wire fences or extreme security, and how the hens were having a peaceful time –Everything seems normal, but we can't jump to conclusions so quickly...– said Ginger quietly.

–It remin's me of me old home...– Mac said, nostalgically remembering the days she was on the Scottish farm where she was born, playing with her siblings in the pasture.

–Well, we just have to question the chickens to find out how they live– said Ginger –Remember: Act natural so that humans don't suspect anything–
