Smiling Critters STILL continues on...

(Just a little teaser because I love you guys and I enjoy the support you've been showing me on this series 💛 Stay safe)

Dogday was so glad to see his friends again. He felt safe only for a moment though... he looked at Kickin' Chicken and immediately freezes. "K-Kickin' what happened?" Dogday was sure he already knew the answer but he didn't want to be right. "Catnap..." was all Kickin' said before he violently coughs, Bubba was holding him looking worried, even with Kickin' smiling Dogday could tell that the chicken was in immense pain with the way his body seemed to be trembling, and twitching. Dogday was about to ask Craftycorn what she planned to do but his heart drops at soon as he looked at her... she was near a wall, painting... with red paint. "C-Crafty..." Dogday looked at Craftycorn but the head shakes he gets from Picky and Bubba stop him. "She's in her own world right now... don't interrupt her..." Kickin' whispers, even as he's bleeding out Crafty sticks her hoof into his abdomen and he stifles a scream as Bubba holds Kickin's face against his chest, Crafty didn't seem to notice as she was busy painting a lovely picture on the wall... although her paint kept dripping onto the ground and wouldn't stay for long she hummed seemingly unbothered about what she was really using as her "paint" and the fact that Bubba and Picky both seem afraid of her says a lot too. They both seem almost afraid to talk to her about the issue here, even Dogday isn't allowed to talk to her, otherwise there will be more trouble. Dogday felt scared, he thought he was going to be happy being with his friends again, but now.. maybe the cell would've been safer.

Catnap was busy trying to find Mommy Longlegs again, he was extremely angry that Dogday escaped, but he'd make sure to not let it happen again. If he ever found Dogday again, he promised the Prototype that he will find him again and make him pay for ever thinking he'd be able to escape for long. Nobody will ever escape Catnap... his prey will never escape... alive. Catnap heard Mommy's laugh somewhere but he wasn't able to pinpoint it, and that infuriated him, even though he couldn't show it on his smiling face. He'd be able to show it in his actions though. Catnap tries to exit the Playcare only to find out someone had locked the doors from the outside of the Playcare. Catnap was fed up at this point, he had things to do, a plan to unfold in front of the Prototype, he wasn't sure when he started to worship the god-like creature that had supposedly saved his life, but if Lively and Lovely Lynx would have their way with him again... he'd follow the Prototype til the end. Since he couldn't leave the Playcare right now... perhaps he should work on his next step...
