Just An Experiment

Chapter Twenty Four: Welcome Home

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Planet Anima...

It had been one week to the day poor Scratchansniff had been abducted. The thought of meeting other aliens and visiting another planet was impressive to him. Plus, knowing the slaughterers were being busted out and would be after him also stirred him to agree to come. But as he looked around himself?

Yakko and Wakko both sighed simultaneously. Anima wasn't like Earth at all. They forgot just how crowded and messed up their planet really had been.

Scratchansniff just watched as 'something' kept crossing back and forth on the road. "What is that?"

"That is a those." Yakko smiled at Scratchansniff. "Little warners, not raised in captivity are a bit different Doc, so watch it."

Scratchansniff was about to take a step when Yakko stopped him.

"Ah, ah doc! This isn't Earth, you can't freely walk wherever you want," Yakko warned him. "We don't have the right away on this path." He pointed to the fast moving blurs. "The den parents and the little warners do. They don't have to follow the rules."

Scratchansniff tried to count the blurs that crossed, but he couldn't even manage that! "Well, how do we move?"

"We move on high paths. Little warners aren't allowed on them." Wakko pointed a few feet away at a red road? That went up like a bridge?

"So we have to walk over there?" Scratchansniff asked curiously. "What exactly is that? It's shiny, like plastic?"

"No Scratchy, you can't walk on the road freely." Yakko just rolled his eyes. Didn't he just say that?

The little warners were already scurrying off with their parents by their side. Aroma, Dot, and Zenny were upon the safety of the free landing square. Their kids were supposed to stay put for now until they came back. After all, the kids didn't have to follow the rules but Anima wasn't known to them. Best safe than sorry.

Dot just laughed behind the guys. Anima wasn't like Earth. It was built by the warner race. The laws, the streets, nothing ever made sense. Heck, the planet was built like a huge game itself.

Scratchansniff looked below his feet and saw a happy face. "Why am I standing on a happy face?"

"Well, cause you're not sitting," Yakko joked. "Now listen. Warners have always liked nothing but fun and games. So well, our world's a game too." He pointed to the sad face on the next tile on the path. "That's a sad face. If you step on that, a warner is bound to show up and start bugging you."

Wakko chuckled. "Yeah! You thought we were bad, you haven't seen anything yet."

"Well, I don't want to step on that." The doctor announced quite clearly. "How about on the grass?"

"Grass is just for den parents and small warners," Yakko replied. "You have to follow the squares. See the square after the sad face? That's our language so you can't read it but it says advance two. If you walk to that, you'll land on..." Yakko tried to look ahead. "Free candy. Someone'll come over and give you candy."
