I'm HUNGRY! by raspberry60 | |
Once upon a time there was a polite, quiet white Moehog named Harry. Harry_77379,
to be exact. He was a nice Moehog. He lived with two brothers and a sister.
His problem? He lived with two brothers and a sister! This is his story...
Harry always dreamed of having a room of his own. But so did his older brother,
Lad, a brown Shoyru. Lad was the oldest, so of course, he was the first to get
his own room. Jet the starry Quiggle, the second oldest, also wanted a room
of his own. However... his family had fallen upon hard times. They were always
starving, and traveling to the Soup Faerie often. The Soup
Faerie got to know them well, and seemed to favour Harry, which pleased
him. But the others were jealous. One day, they were about to go to the Soup
Faerie, when his brothers, Lad and Jet, stopped him.
"I think you oughta stay home today, Harry." Lad growled. "We wouldn't want
anyone to get hurt now, would we?"
Harry gulped and told his owner he would be staying home. His owner looked
questioningly at him, but Harry simply replied he wasn't hungry.
The next day, Lad and Jet stopped Harry from going to the Soup Faerie once
again. Poor Harry was dying of hunger.
That night, Harry's owner came to him and said, "The Soup Faerie has been wondering
where you have been. I told her you haven't been hungry, but..." she stopped
and smiled. "I know you're hungry, Harry, so I want you to come tomorrow, okay?"
Harry gulped, then nodded. Harry was up all night, wondering what terrible
thing his brothers would do to him. Jet had everything. He was painted starry,
and had a Faerie Snarhook. Lad had his own room, so Jet was jealous of Lad.
Jet had everything, so Lad was jealous of Jet. Their jealousy made them good
friends, strangely. Then, their was Korbattie the checkered Korbat. Korbattie
was furious at their owner for painting her checkered, even though she told
her that's what she wanted to be. She was previously painted Christmas, but
since them, she had come to hate her new checkered look. Their family was total
chaos! Finally, Harry, scared of his brothers' wrath but also very tired, fell
asleep.
The next morning, he got up, and found to his surprise, that his owner had
bought Coco
NeoCrunch cereal for them all! He was so excited!
"Help yourself," their owner told them and smiled, knowing it was their favourite
cereals, and left to see how the construction on Jet's new room (made out of
jelly) was coming along. Harry reached for the box, when Lad grabbed the box
and poured himself some more cereal. Then he handed it to Korbattie. Korbattie
handed herself some cereal, then handed the box to Harry. But Jet, wanting his
cereal first, punched Harry and grabbed the box. While he poured himself some,
Korbattie glided over the table, and helped Harry to his hooves.
"He's just a jerk. Ignore him. He thinks he cool now that he's finally getting
himself a room of his own."
Harry nodded. Jet, finished pouring his cereal, put the box on the counter.
Harry reached for it. He grabbed it and went to get himself a bowl. He poured
some, finishing the box, and sat down on the tiger bench in the hall. (They
didn't have a kitchen then, they were planning on making that after Jet's room.)
On the way to the bench, Lad tripped him, making milk and cereal fly everywhere.
So, when their owner came back in, there was milk and coco NeoCrunch cereal
all over the bench and twig floor. So, Harry had no breakfast that day. And
since it rained and their trip to the Soup Faerie was canceled, Harry was more
hungry then ever.
The next day, Harry woke up extra early, even before his owner. He opened
his piggy bank and counted 44 Neopoints.
This is it, he wrote in his diary I can't take it anymore. I'm going
to the food shop myself.
Harry closed his diary and put it away. He went out the front door, and was
on his way to the food shop. And when he reached it, oh, what a wonderful time
it was for him! He bought NeoCrunch cereal for breakfast, and for lunch, a bitten
apple, and for dinner, a white chocolate Chia. He was so happy! He brought all
of the food home and sat down to eat it all when his owner came in.
His owner asked, "I could have bought some for you... so why?"
Harry then burst out in tears and told his owner everything his owners had
threatened to do to him. His owner then said, "From now on, you'll never go
hungry again."
The End
Epilogue
Lad and Jet were both grounded for a week and got no new toys for two weeks.
Harry got his own room made out of straw, and his sister Korbattie also got a
room of her own. They also got a kitchen too, if you were wondering. ; )
Author's Note
The characters in this story were actually my pets on my different account.
By the way, their full names are Harry_77379, Korbattie55, Waterjet960, and
Lad31. Oh, and also, Lad and Jet are actually very nice to Harry, and are not
actually mean like they appear to be in the story. |
