Smiling Critters continues on...

Chapter 557

"Argh... revenge is so petty" Dogday finally says but quickly shuts up when Huggy Wuggy growls. "Sorry" Dogday raises his paws in surrender. "Dogday don't be rude, I think Killy Willy may do something way worse to the CEO if we don't get in there first" explained Hoppy. "What do you mean?" Dogday tilts his head confused what his friend meant "think about it, all these changes are because of the CEO and the Prototype, they're working together to make this place better for everyone, us included, yet they've changed us all, you, myself, Kickin' and even the blue husky over there are all stuck with smiling faces" Hoppy tries to explain. "Just because we're stuck with smiling faces doesn't mean that getting revenge is the answer, plus you said the CEO and the Prototype, this has nothing to do with Killy does it?" Dogday questions with his arms crossed. "Dogday don't be stupid, Killy worked with the Prototype remember?" Hoppy challenged, but Dogday seemed hesitant to say anything. "Hoppy look, I love you, you're a great friend but-" Dogday tried to explain but Craftycorn spoke up "Dogday are you turning against us now?" with that question in the air Dogday freezes and looks directly at Crafty. "What do you mean?" he asks quietly eyeing the white unicorn in front of him. "I mean are you siding with the CEO and the Prototype, I mean we've all heard you and the Prototype talking, you apparently killed us as kids and made us into The Smiling Critters for your own benefit" Crafty's voice got stronger as she glares at Dogday. "Crafty, I'm not siding with anyone, I'm just trying to understand" Dogday explains but it seems to have fallen on deaf ears. "Dogday listen, we know what you did, and we're not happy, and honestly... I'm not even happy to call you my friend anymore" Kickin' spoke up as he walks over to Crafty and places his wing on her shoulder while looking at Dogday. "So you all are challenging me, and my loyalty?" Dogday said with a low dangerous undertone as he looked at those he used to see as his friends. "Dogday... you helped kill us, and make us into these" Kickin' said with an irritated voice. "I was helping you guys!" Dogday growls out but Kickin' just stood in front of Crafty protectively. "Don't growl at us Dogday, we still see you as a leader and a leader shouldn't growl at those who trust and support you" Kickin' said as he stood directly in front of Dogday, they seemed to be in a standstill for nobody moved, Huggy even watched a bit intrigued by what was happening. "Don't fight" a voice spoke up and everyone was shocked out of their staring at Dogday and Kickin' to instead stare at Happy Husky. "I thought your voice box broke" Craftycorn said as she walks over and places her hoof directly on Happy Husky's speaker system. "This is a back up, incase the old one fails, the CEO is a good man who helps those who need it most" Happy Husky shakes his head at the last part. "He isn't a good man is he..?" Dogday asks to which everyone gives him deadpan looks and raised brows, at least those who could, those who couldn't just groan and shake their heads in disappointment. "Heh.. oops" Dogday shrugs a bit sheepishly.
