Egon looks at the treasure.
Oh, so much gold! Just for me! Lucky me Lucky me!
He thinks. He feels someone lean on his shoulder "And for me of course, sweetie?" A familiar voice whispers in his ear. He turns around "Ah, yes, of course. I will share it with you, Coconut!" He says. Coconut was a small ghost she-cat, around 15 and his best friend. Though, it always annoyed him how everyone else ignored her.

Snowfall stares at him.
"He wants to kill you and take your treasure. Kill him, kill him, kill him" Coconut says loudly.
Egon crosses his arms "So. Snowfall. This is my treasure. Not yours," he snaps.

Snowfall nods "Yes, of course sir."
"Good job handsome. Now kill him," Coconut whispers. Egon shakes his head at her. Snowfall watches, confused.

It always annoyed Egon how everyone ignored Coconut. Of course, coconut said it was because she had done something wrong, and that the old Queen had banished her. That was why everyone ignored her. Well, Egon had decided to be her friend anyway. Though, he wanted to punch the people who walked straight into her, pushing her over and NOT EVEN LOOKING TO SEE IF SHE WAS OKAY.
How rude. Well, now I am King, and everyone will appreciate how great she is.

It was her idea, really, for him to become king. He was watching the news with his humans when he saw the attack. Coconut said he should've killed her and called off the attack, which he did. He loved living with the humans, though his siblings did not approve.

AND EVEN THE HUMANS IGNORED COCONUT, WHICH WAS REALLY UNFAIR!
They had asked him a bunch of questions every time he spoke with her. Asked who he was talking to.
Then, he would say who he was speaking with, and they would get worried.
Like, WOW CAN I NOT HAVE ANY FRIENDS OF MY OWN??
Apparently not, according to everyone.

Coconut had also told him to kill the Blackpaws and to hurt Thorn. She said it was for revenge. Though, he could not remember for what. Everything was fuzzy all the time. His memories were scattered. Coconut helps, she knows everything, always knows what he is thinking.
She is incredibly smart. Other people should listen to her too.

His brother, Aspen and his sister, Maple would get wary whenever he talked with coconut, then his brother would tell him to sit down and eat some white candy. Which Egon did, sometimes. Coconut would get furious when he did. He did not want to make her mad.
She would run around and yell at him if he ate it, then she would yell some more, then storm off and not return until he stopped eating the candy.
She said it was poison, poison that was twisting him, making everything fuzzy.

Egon Tried having an argument with his brother about it once. Aspen was furious. He yelled something at him, something he cannot remember. The whole fight felt like it had been happening underwater. Fuzzy, fuzzy, fuzzy. Snowfall makes a sound and Egon looks at him. "Sir," Snowfall starts, "do I get to keep my job? As second in command?"

"No, he is old. Kill him," Coconut says.
"No, I don't want to kill him," Egon snaps back.
"Who are you talking to?" Snowfall asks.
Egon glares at him and takes a step back.

"He is just like the others! He ignores me!! Besides, he is old!" Coconut cries. Egon crosses his arms "Sure, you can keep doing your job. Just don't bother Coconut," he points at her. Snowfall narrows his eyes at him, then slowly nods, not directly at Coconut, but close enough.
