Eep pulled the log off of our body. We began working on a fake bird, similar to the one that Thunk was trying to steal an egg from. We agreed that I would be in the head controlling the mouth. We thought it would be a good idea, but I don't think I will ever recover from that.

I curled up in the head, I'm surprised I fit in there. I clamped my hands to the jaws of the bird and braced myself to be scarred for life. They started moving around and I sneezed, catching the bird's attention. It slowly moved it's way to us. Eep and Guy had some trouble and got entwined. I felt a pang of jealousy as this happened.

While they were trying to untangle themselves, they accidentally slapped the bird with the wing they made. Guy jumped up and grabbed my dangling legs. Eep looked at me angrily. I lightly growled at her. The bird slapped the head back causing it go flying with Guy and I hanging to it. 

Grug was looking in and out of the log, clearly looking for us. Guy let go of me and slid into the log. 

"Where's Eep and "Y/N?" He asked. Then Eep made a roaring sound and I began running after the bird. 

"She's awesome." Guy said dreamily looking at me. 

"Eep!" Grug said as he ran after us. 

"Dad watch out!" Eep said as we ran past the trap. 

The bird walked right into the trap sending it flying into the air. It landed with a thud and the feathers came flying off of it. Belt and Scarf cooked it and we were to have a great dinner. 

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

Grug chained us to a rock. Guy and I picked up a leaf and some sticks to eat with. We took off a piece of meat and began eating. We watched in disgust as the Croods sloppily ate the bird, crawling into it and eating it. Guy and I looked pat it and our gaze shifted towards Eep who was waving at us, Guy in particular. We waved back and Eep ripped off a piece of meat and literally inhaled it.

Eep came over and sat next to Guy. "Looks like we won't have any leftovers." Guy said.

"What are leftovers?" Eep said looking at Guy.

"It's when you have so much food you have to save it." I said. Eep squinted at me.

"We never have leftovers." Eep said sadly. Guy and I looked at each other sadly. Belt and Scarf looked at Eep. A tear rolled down Scarf's eye.

"Story time!" We heard Grug shout. 

"Yeah story!" Thunk exclaimed happily.

Guy and I sat on our rock. I lay my head on his shoulders and listened to what I thought was going to be a peaceful story, but Oh man, was I wrong.
