"The Lucky Negg" by i_lovee_icecream
Part 1 It was a brisk day in Brightvale and the sun was setting over the treetops. A Cybunny named Juniper was taking a stroll through the forest on her way home when she stumbled upon a bush full of strange-looking neggs. She approached the bush and reached her paw down to grab the negg, swiping her finger across its jewelled surface. The jewels were iridescent and shone with warm tones of pink, yellow, and orange as the sun danced across its surface. “What kind of negg is this?” Juniper thought aloud. She plucked one from the bush and put it in her basket. Juniper swung her basket back and forth all the way home, humming a tune until she reached her den. * * * Once she was home, she asked her brother, Jon, about the negg. “Have you ever seen a negg like this before?” she asked. “Why, no. I haven’t. It sure is beautiful!” he replied. “How do you think it would taste?” she prompted. “It looks like it would be sweet and juicy. You should try it,” he said. Juniper ate the negg, like he suggested. As soon as she bit into it, juice exploded out of the side of her mouth. She giggled. It was indeed sweet and delicious!
