Cliff ran to an old boom trunk. He looked around and then waved his hand towards some trees. Nook and Scar ran from behind the boom and ran to Cliff. Cliff opened a secret hatch on the boom stump and climbed in with Scar and Nook after him. When they got to the bottom, they ran down a couple of hallways and got to a big room. Bard was waiting for them," Well? Is half the forest gone?" He asked. "No, sir. We had some trouble with that stupid wild cat. We only got a quarter of the forest cut down." Bard slammed his hand against the wall," That's not good enough! We need to cause huge amounts of damage! Chop down trees, burn up the bushes! Stomp on flowers if u have to! We need this forest destroyed!" "It would be easier if u told us why we were doing it!" Cliff yelled at Bard. Bard walked to him and got in his face," Are u yelling at me, Cliff?" " and so what if I was?" Cliff snapped back. Bard stepped back and laughed," Then there would be consequences." He punched Cliff square in the stomach. Cliff lost all his breath and fell to the ground. Bard laughed some meer and then looked at Scar," Since u three bag heads don't have any clue on how too burn stuff, I'll give u someone who does. Selena! Get your tail out here!" A purple hedgehog came from another room, " u don't have to yell! Sheesh. What do u want?" " I need u to teach these three babies on how to burn down a forest." He growled. Selena eyes glittered at the word burn. She walked to the three boys," Name's Selena. u better remember, cause I'm not repeating." Bard laughed at her attitude. " I found Selena in town pickpocketing from strangers. She had to at least picked fifty pockets before someone noticed. I hid her until the heat died down and then I offered her a place in our gang. She also told me she has a liking of burning things, so this job is perfect for her. Now go and get busy! I want it done soon." All four of them left. They got to the forest and notice Rose and her vrienden healing the forest they just destroyed," Dang! Why are they here?!" Scar growled silently. " We'll have to do the other part of the forest. Come on, follow me!" They followed Scar to a beautiful part of the forest. The leaves glistened in the sunlight and a river rushed blissfully. The birds singed happily and forest critters played near by, " There's one thing Bard left out about me, boys." Selena zei and looked at a tree. She pointed her hands at it and it was engulfed with fire," I'm a pyromaniac." Nook and Cliff took a chainsaw and cut down trees left and right. Scar was also catching trees on brand when he slipped in the river and he was swept away in the current. " Scar!" Nook yelled and ran after him. Cliff rolled his eyes and kept chopping down trees and Selena didn't even notice. Scar ended up in a small pool. He opened his eyes and saw a pair of eyes staring back at him. He jumped and stood up. Four Chao were looking at him. meer came out of the bushes and then It looked there was probably ten of twelve. " Scar! What are ya doing?! We have a forest to-" Nook saw the Chao. One Chao walked up to Nook and raised it's hands up, like it wanted to be held. " What are these thing?" Scar said, picking one up. The Chao made a small noise. " I think they're what people call Chaos." Nook said. Scar shook his head," No it can't be. Chaos are extinct. No one has seen a Chao in 20 years." Then Selena and Cliff came over," What are u too slak brains doing?! We have work to be done!" Selena yelled. " Look!" Nook zei and put a Chao in Selena's face," I don't care what that thing is, get it out of my face!" Nook put the Chao down and it started to swim in the pond. " Look," Selena said," I don't care what lives here, I just want to burn it. So let's do what Bard zei and burn everything. That includes these...these Things." Selena then pointed her hands at one.
