"The Annual Petpet Prank War" by maddie_bangz
“3…2…1…” “It’s midnight! Let’s go.” The house was otherwise silent except for the whispered murmurs of the Petpets and the soft snoring of their Neopets. The Gruslen and Harris duo grabbed their backpacks, stuffed to the brim with supplies and thrown over their shoulders with a soft thunk. The two stumbled clumsily under the weight of the bags. They quickly tiptoed out of the room and down the stairs, making sure to avoid the creakiest steps. They couldn’t risk waking up anyone else in the house. The Petpets slowly opened the front door, pausing to listen for the reassuring snoring of their Neopets, making sure no one had woken up. The Gruslen nodded at the Harris that the coast was clear, and the two stepped outside while carefully closing the door behind them with a click. It was a crisp, chilly night that was typical for April. A full moon glowed in the sky with hundreds of stars twinkling around it. The perfect night for mischief, and the Petpets were buzzing with anticipation. The two nodded at each other and burst out into a run and quickly made their way into the nearby forest, feeling much safer under the cover of the trees. Other than their hurried footsteps in the dirt, the night was quiet and still. Their packs felt heavy as they sprinted through the brush until they finally heard other whispers in the distance. “Shh, I think we’re here!” The Gruslen hissed at the Harris, who was racing to keep up. They slowed down as they approached a break in the trees, taking in the large open field around them. This normally quiet spot in the wilderness was packed full with hundreds and hundreds of whispering Petpets.
