The Adventures of Bloop and Marshal

Chapter One

It was a stormy night in Cocobean, and Isabelle was just finishing up some papers mayor Issa had asked her to fill out. Isabelle didn't mind doing so much work, it was just she was so... Tired! "Ah... When will the piles of paper stop..?" She sighed, letting her head drop onto the desk. Isabelle told herself she needed to finish the papers, but she decided to take a little nap. When she woke up, however, it was already morning! And, Marshal, was standing at her desk. "Umm... Miss Isabelle?" He poked her head. "Oh my! I'm up I'm up! I'm so very sorry Marshal! Now, what did you n-need?" Her face flushed. "There's going to be a new resident of Cocobean if you haven't heard already." "Oh!! Wow, a new resident! Can you give me his information? We can get his house and payments done immediately!" It had been awhile since there was a new resident of Cocobean and Isabelle was very excited to know people were still interested in the new land here. "Sure," Marshal called out. "Bloop! Come in! This nice puppy Isabelle is ready to take your information to file a new house for you! A small octopus came into the room and was very very shy. He hid his face in his shirt. "Aww... You're so cute! Don't worry, we'll get you fixed up right away!" Isabelle told Bloop. Bloop didn't reply. He was very confused about what was going on anyway, so he just stood there. Isabelle walked into the Mayor's room and dropped all the papers. Mayor Issa, the turtle, was sleeping, in his chair. He had been there all night and not noticed Isabelle's hard work! Isabelle shook him violently. "Mr. Mayor! You've been asleep here all night!? You COULD'VE HELPED ME!!" She scolded him and walked away. "Ugh... So sorry about that. The mayor can be very lazy and unhelpful sometimes..." Bloop sneezed and hid his face. He leaned over to Marshal and whispered, "U-Um... Marshal? C-Can you take me to where I can get my house? I kinda need a place to sleep tonight." Marshal nodded and asked Isabelle where to find the house. "Oh, no problem! Heehee. Go right to Mr. Thomas' shop! He will provide the bill, and you're own housing arrangement!" Marshal took Bloop's tentacle and walked him out of the Town Hall and into the nice green fields. They walked into the shop and Bloop saw an animal he'd never seen before.

He thought it was a raccoon. Or maybe a Tanuki? Anyway, he didn't look very appealing to Bloop. "Hello Hello!" He waved to Bloop. Bloop raised his tentacle up and waved shyly. The Tanuki looked at a paper for a moment. "Oh oh no!" Tom said to Bloop and Marshal. "We don't have enough funds to build a new house, for we do not have enough space. And, we cannot POSSIBLY afford to buy new land. I guess you're out of luck buddy. Sorry!" Bloop shrugged. Although in his mind he was freaking out. "W-Where will I stay!!?" He thought. Marshal then took Bloop out of the store and told him, "Hehe... don't worry my friend. You'll stay with me. I have plenty of space." Bloop's expression changed from solemn to excited. He would be able to stay with Marshal, his best friend! Marshal took Bloop's hand and took him to a small-ish but pretty well-looking house. They opened the door and Bloop covered his face with embarrassment. There were two bunnies sitting in the house, and Marshal was blushing.

"Hello Marshal~," They both said. "Um, girls what are you doing here?" Marshal replied. "It was raining earlier, so we dropped in, and you weren't here..." "Um, well it'd be nice if you'd leave, thanks." "Hmph!" They said and walked out the door. Bloop, confused, asked, "Who were they" "Their names were Chrissy and Francine, they....like me" Marshal giggled. "Um, ew, haha." Bloop replied. "W-Well anyway! You have a very nice house, I'm gonna be so happy here!"

  "Good!" Marshal laughed.
