The Mystery at Usukiland

Polly hated waiting in line, especially when it came to a sale. The later she showed up to Usukiland, the less likely it was that she’d find a Paranormal Time Detective Usuki Doll left.

Night had fallen on Faerie City, Kreludor illuminating the shattered windows, burnt out lanterns, and rubble still piled up on the streets and curbs.

"A Chocolate Meltdown" by weiyannn
As the Month of Eating neared its end in Neopia, the cool spring time breeze began to give way to the warm summer air. Before the heat got too unbearable, Ruth the Yellow Chia thought she could seize her chance for a last spring picnic. She woke up early that morning with the sun shining comfortably through the windows. “Yup, today’s the perfect day for a picnic!” She jumped out of bed and stretched out the tension in her body. “Rise and shine, Mars! We’re going to the park today! For a picnic, and a walk!” Mars, her Chocolate Noil, stirred from his Petpet bed in the corner of the room. At the sound of the word ‘walk’, Mars’ ears perked up. That was always his favourite word. He blinked up at Ruth, and stretched his front paws out with a big yawn. His mane of icing shook vigorously as Mars shook away the sleepiness. As he shook his body to get energized for the day, the thick mane of icing bobbed with the movement. “Mars! You’re gonna get sprinkles everywhere again!” Ruth bent down to pick up some rainbow sprinkles that came loose from Mars’ icing mane and stuck them back on. Who knew that a Chocolate Petpet could be so messy! Actually, she should have known. She had an uncle who got zapped to a Chocolate Chia for a while and he used to drip chocolate syrup all over Grandma’s furniture. The family did NOT want to sit next to him during their dinner.
