A young boy ran through the woods, with an older girl, and an older boy chasing him, giggling.

"Mumbo! Where are you!" The girl, around 10, said. "We'll find you, sneaky spoon!" The boy, 3 years older than the girl, said.

Mumbo grinned, hiding behind a nearby tree as his siblings walked past. Taking the moment to catch his breathe, he lowered his guard.

"RAH!" He jumped as both his siblings appeared behind him. They both started laughing, and soon, Mumbo joined himself.

As the trio pulled themselves together again, Mumbo spotted something out of the corner of his eye. As his brother and sister conversed, he snuck off.

Soon enough, he found himself lost. The deeper he went, the more scared he was. He turned around, walking backwards.

A sudden dip in the ground made him lose his balance as he tumbled down, headfirst into a tree.

It was blurry, then it went black.
