O.O Noo! You're making me neverous and shakey! e_e What if we don't make it because I wrote it too!? What if they forget to give me a trophy? What if the site goes down again? What if..

Ok, that's fine by me! I hope you fixed up the Snowbunny and the Turdle one...

Yes, I did.

I was very shaky sending it in--"Are they all attached?" "Are there any typos?" "Did I remember to thank Josh?" "Did I...." "Did I...." "Did I...."

I'm always like that whenever I send anything in.

[Lappi]

O.o I forgot to thank Josh! Oh my... Josh!

Err... for some reason, I have a suspision I jut can't send stuffies to them. I mean... I sent in billions of editorial questions and only one of them was answered (a looong time ago).

Anyways... Meep!

Little Red Riding Hood

Raeanne, a small Babaa, took her red cloak from a hook. She put on the clothing and felt free. It was her favourite thing to wear, and it was extra protective in windy days. Whenever she wore it, she only looked like a speck of red walking through the forest.
The Babaa lived in the Uni Meadows, which was rather close to the forest in which her grandmother lived. Currently, her grandmother fell ill but was not in serious pain. Raeanne was instructed to visit her dear grandmother every day to deliver her food and comfort her, since Raeanne was the sweetest Babaa many ever knew.
Raeanne picked up her basket full of food and marched through the meadows, looking spotting the Endless Plains not so far ahead. When she finally arrived at the edge of the forest, she took a deep breath, checked her basket, and continued walking, although more cautiously.
The woods were a truly dangerous place to wander round, especially at night. It would be quite a long walk, for Raeanne’s grandmother was nearly on the other side of the forest. It was very pretty there, with a flowing blue stream, sparkling in the light. There were many flowerbeds, their colours blending beautifully, the blue sky making it even better. The grass there was lush and green, and whisked back and forth with the glistening wind.
As Raeanne dreamed of being there with her grandmother again, she heard some growling noises from behind her. Shocked, the Babaa hurried along the forest path, careful not to trip or panic. To her relief, nobody jumped at her, and after a few minutes, the growling stopped, and Raeanne was sure the creature was gone.
When the sun shined brightly, and the sky was cloudless and spectacularly blue, Raeanne began to whistle. The notes filled the gentle air, and she could hear many songs of Beekadoodle colliding with her music, and the buzzes of Buzzers and Poppits make a wonderful background sound.
Skipping along the forest path, Raeanne looked around the sky curiously. From a distance, she could see beautiful Rowzez winding up larger plants and trees. The magenta bulbs gleamed in the sunlight, while the deep green leaves blended with the leaves of the plants, and the lush green grass.
Raeanne carefully admired every single thing around her, and stopped to smell many flowers, helped hurt Petpets, and constantly checked her basket to see if her food was still safe.
After a while, the Babaa was nearly there. She felt almost like running to her grandmother’s, excited of seeing her beautiful house and the surroundings, and of course her old grandmother. But if she did run, the food would be mush and a mess by the time she was done.
When she got her breath, Raeanne began to whistle again, and soon enough, the other creatures of the forest began following her music. She could feel the warmth of being free and well, and the beauty of seeing all those things she could, and how lucky she was to –
Before Raeanne realized what was going on, the Petpets stopped singing, and she heard growling noises again. She tripped on what seemed to be a clear, glass jar with a cork for a lid. She could tell it was already opened before and stuffed back on, but Raeanne only had a second to think about that when she began worrying about the food.
“Oh no!” she squeaked with her small voice. “Grandmother’s food is all ruined! Perhaps I can make up by cooking a nice meal at her home, or bringing her a pretty flower.”
Raeanne’s grandmother had always appreciated her work, and Raeanne was her personal favourite grandchild. She loved seeing her granddaughter very much, mush food or not. She also loved when she stayed at her house to do anything at all, and especially liked it when she brought something for her dear grandmother.
Raeanne quickly picked herself up and looked around warily. Beekadoodles retreated from their tree and flew to another one, and after a few minutes time, they began to sing again, bringing happiness back to the worried Babaa.

[Lappi]

Not long after, Raeanne only had a little more to walk, so she spent the rest of her time admiring her surroundings again. She longed to ask the other Petpets what had bothered them, but then she decided that if she took any more time, her grandmother would be worried sick, just like she was when she had tripped.
Scurrying along the path, Raeanne finally saw it. Her grandmother’s house was beside a gentle stream, with plants growing around the area. When she arrived, Raeanne spotted an error. The grass was rather muddy, as though someone fell into the pool and went back to walk on the grass. Thinking about this, Raeanne hopped over to the stream, finding bits of hair in there. It must have belonged to one of the forest creatures, was close to what Raeanne thought, for she never thought danger could come too close to her. Leaning over to another side, Raeanne saw the pretty flowerbeds all mush as though they were sandwiches in a basket that had been thrown around.
Raeanne made a quizzical look and decided to go inside and deliver the food like she was suppose to. The old door of the wooden cabin creaked softly when Raeanne opened it. Her grandmother had four rooms in her Neohome; a storage room, a kitchen and dining room combined, her bedroom, and a small lavatory.
The first room was the dining and kitchen room. It took up nearly half of the house, but it was very pretty. Raeanne’s grandmother kept many plants in there, and it was as lovely as the outside. Unlike before, where the plants were neatly organized, the pots were now broken and chipped. They had toppled over sideways, and were placed back by Raeanne, who still didn’t have worry much. The Babaa may have been kind and caring, but she was only young, so very bright she was not.
Raeanne hurried to the back of the room, which contained two doors; one leading the storage room, the other to the bedroom. Her grandmother was most likely to be in her bed, and so, Raeanne went inside and opened her basket of food.
Sitting on her bed was a creature, Raeanne knew, who was dressed in her grandmother’s old clothes. The Babaa sat down, took a glance at the strange Lupe-looking creature, then smiled.
“Hello, Grandmother,” she said cheerily, as she would always. “Have you been feeling alright?”
“Oh, why yes, er – Granddaughter,” stammered the Lupe with a hoarse voice. “I’ve been doing just fine… dear.”
“Why, your voice does sound a bit croaky, doesn’t it, Grandmother? Perhaps you would like some Kikoughela Syrup or some Sporkle Syrup to help it.” replied Raeanne worriedly, although knowing the Lupe would refuse.
Shivering, the “grandmother” said, “No thank you dear, I’m fine, really.”
Raeanne examined the Lupe more carefully. “Oh, what a large nose – or snout – you have, Grandmother!”
“The more better to smell you with, darling.”
“But oh, what… small eyes you have!” exclaimed Raeanne.
“The better to see you with, dear,” replied the Lupe, and seeing Raeanne’s quizzical look, he added, “The smaller the eyes, the less sun that gets into them, and that means I can see you better.”

[Lappi]

“Right, but what large ears you seem to have! They’re almost as big as a Faerie Babaa!”
Grinning at the word “Faerie”, the Lupe said, “The better to hear you with, dear. I’m very old, and my hearing has gone worse.”
“My, oh, my!” stammered Raeanne, looking nervously at the Lupe. “What – what a large mouth you have!”
“The more better to…” and with that, the Lupe thought for a second, then grinned. “The more better to eat you with!”
With that, Raeanne squeaked and ran out of the room, into the kitchen and hid behind a large counter. She clutched her red cloak tightly, as she saw the Lupe enter the room.
“Where are you, Babaa? Balthazar has come to eat…!” sneered the Lupe, looking behind various objects. He leaned over toward the counter Raeanne was hiding behind, and exclaimed “Ah ha!”
Raeanne squeaked in reply, and then gathered enough strength to say, “Are you going to eat me? Did you eat my grandmother? What did you do to her? What are you going to do to me?”
Balthazar chuckled and smirked. “I just put your dear grandmother in her storage room, and I don’t eat Petpets unless they have a poor attitude, so don’t worry about it.”
Relieved, she saw the Lupe rummage through a cupboard. “I-if you want, I can make you some food for you and Grandmother,” squeaked Raeanne, getting up.
“Really?” said Balthazar curiously. “That would be great, thank you.”
Seeing that Balthazar wasn’t as bad as he seemed, Raeanne went into the storage, told her grandmother everything, and began cooking together, as the Lupe sat at their small table, looking at his sharp claws.
When they finished, the two set up the table and began eating together, until they were full. After that, they cleaned up, and saw Balthazar leaving.
“I hope you had a nice stay, Balthazar,” Raeanne said, smiling. “And have a nice journey!”
And with that, they waved sadly, and saw him dash off, into the Endless Plains.

Oh, yes, I'm sure I said something, now. I originally said Meerca so she would let down her long tail, but Kyrii works as well.
