FIERY FRACAS ( DAY 14, LETTER F)

CHAPTER 13

FIERY FRACAS

The brawl raged – fur flying, wood creaking, critters yelling. The pigs were outnumbered, but they weren't going down without a fight. Swinedell smashed a wooden chair, sending splinters flying. Porkinn kicked Chipper, sending him tumbling. Dapper somersaulted off a shelf, landing a series of rapid-fire nips on his scalp.

Goldwynn yanked Baconne's tail, spinning him into a bookshelf. Hopper grabbed Porrkinn holding him in a tight rabbit grip. "Yield, porkchop!" he growled.

Porrkinn grunted, his eyes glinting with malice as he cracked his knuckles, the sound echoing through like a threat. His porcine features twisted into a cruel grin, flashing a missing tooth, a souvenir from a previous brawl.

"You see, girl, we run things here," he drawled, his voice dripping with arrogance. "Like these pets." He snapped his fingers at the Chipper, Hopper, and Dapper, as they trembled in unison.

Swinedell lunged, grabbing the Chipmunk by the scruff, its tiny paws kicking wildly as it squeaked in terror. Chipper's fluffy tail quivered with fear, and its eyes rolled wildly, searching for an escape. Swinedell’s grubby fingers dug deeper, making him whimper.

Baconne pinned Hopper to the floor, its ashen grey fur flattened beneath his meaty hands. "Hah! Gotcha, fluffball!" He chortled, his laughter bouncing through the den.

Dapper, sensing danger, folded itself into a ball, its eyes squeezed shut, tiny chest heaving with fear.

Goldwynn tensed, her eyes flashing with anger. "Hey! Let 'em go!" she growled, her fists clenched at her sides.

Porkinn laughed, a cold, mirthless sound, as he circled her. "Or what? You wanna play?" he taunted, his grin parading across his face "You're no match for the Three Little Pigs, girl!"

Goldwynn dodged his swinging fist, her hair flying as she countered with a swift kick to his gut. Dapper somersaulted off a shelf, landing with a soft thud on Baconne 's shoulders, his tiny claws digging in. Baconne howled, bucking like a bronco, but the squirrel hung on wildly mauling him.

Chipper darted between Porkinn 's legs, tripping him up. The young pig tumbled, his mohawk askew, as Hopper pinned him with a knee. "Gotcha!" the rabbit growled, his ears twitching.

Porkinn stumbled back, his eyes watering from Dapper's flurry of nips. Goldwyn seized the moment, grabbing a nearby wooden spoon and wielding it like a sword.

The cottage trembled with the force of the brawl.

Baconne charged, his massive frame hurtling towards Goldwynn. She sidestepped, tripping him with a sweep of her leg. The big pig crashed into a bookshelf, sending heavy tomes tumbling.

Porkinn squirmed free from Hopper's grip, his face twisted in a snarl. He lunged at Chipper, but Dapper intercepted him, their paws flying in a whirlwind of fur and claws.

Hopper, cornered and frightened, bit down hard on Baconne’s leg, its teeth sinking into flesh. Baconne yowled in pain, releasing the bunny as it thumped its hind leg in distress.

Chipper, not to be outdone, scratched Swinedell's face, its claws leaving deep gnarls in their wake. Swinedell howled, releasing the Chipper who flew across the room, landing with a soft thud against a cookie jar, sending it whipping and the contents crashing to the floor.

Dapper, sensing an opportunity, uncurled, its eyes fixed on Porkinn. With a tiny squeak, it launched itself at the pig’s face, its claws jabbing wildly.

Porrkinn caught off guard, stumbled backward, momentarily blinded by the flurry of fur and claws. Goldwynn saw her chance and lunged, her fists flying as she aimed for the pigs. But they were too strong, too many. They swatted her down, pinning her to the floor.

MOXIE N' METTLE In slivers and fragments as my sleep tiptoes, did I do right or wrong my heart needles… Some skies are born of black holes and tempest wreck, There glitters not a ray of light, nor a speck When curtains turbid hold all light hostage, Sandstorms, hailstorms, dust storms, snowstorms, windstorms assail and ravage Spanning my wings as a raging fire Or as a mellow glow of a fairy light in the distant darkness, quite debonaire I'll ignite my spark from within like a star born into itself spurting lava Or explode leaving trails of cosmic dust like a Supernova I will be the Sun creating galaxies and many a constellation. Or burn like a single flame of the candle to keep my hopes and dreams alive with determination! I will be at my own pace I will be whoever and whatever I want to be—in my own race Collapse, crash and crumble! But I'll...

RUTHLESS REVELATIONS (DAY 16, LETTER R)

CHAPTER 15 RUTHLESS REVELATIONS The Three Little Pigs stood triumphant in the whimsical cottage's living room, surrounded by mismatched furniture and waltzing dust motes. Baconne , Porkinn , and Swinedell grinned at each other, puffing out their chests like gangsters. Baconne swaggered closer to the makeshift bar. "You know," he said, stroking his shoulder, "the Big Bad Wolf wasn't so bad after all, was he?" His grin split wide, showing a gold-capped tooth. The pigs snorted, their belly laughs vibrating the chandeliers above. Swinedell poured three tiny glasses of wild truffle liqueur with a theatrical flourish. "Cheers to us!" he growled, hoisting a glass. "We wanted his posh cottage for ourselves. Wolfie mutt was just defending his pad." His eyes glinted like cheap jewels. Goldwynn's face paled. She stammered as she whispered, " Wha...

NO ESCAPE !( DAY 15, LETTER N)

CHAPTER 14 NO ESCAPE! Porkinn snarled wickedly, his gold chain swinging like a pendulum. Goldwynn, curled up and froze her eyes wide, face getting paler by the minute. Baconne lumbered in, Swinedell sliding in behind like a ghost. Goldwyn lifted her chin, voice shaking a little. "I'm waiting for the bears." Porky chuckled, low and mean . "Bears ain't comin’ They're... displaced. Baconne guffawed, Porkinn’s grin was sinister. Goldwynn squinted her lips tight. Porkinn leaned in, breathing on her face. "You wanna play nice? Tell us where the Locke Jewel is." Goldwynn clamped her mouth shut . No sooner Porkinn’s grin vanished . Baconne grabbed a nearby vase. "Tell us, or... Goldwynn flinched. Porrkinn laughed, darting to the kitchen. "Let’s rummage the place." Baconne smashed the vase on th...

THE BIG BAD WOLF( DAY 17, LETTER T)

CHAPTER 16 THE BIG BAD WOLF The pigs snarled like proper rascals, fixing their cold steely eyes on the Wolf's cottage. How dare he refuse to part with his cottage! When the pigs demand, it's given to them---no questions asked! Porkinn limped, Baconne was soggy, Swinedell rubbed a sore bump on his head, but they were far from defeated. Swinedell snorted, a crooked grin spreading across his face. "Wolf thinks 'e's posh, don't 'e? " Baconne sniffed the air, his nostrils flaring. "We want the cottage!” He growled. Porkinn cracked his fingers, his sly glance darting about. The pigs crept towards the back door, their footsteps silent on the soft grass. They spotted the Wolf through the kitchen window, stirring a pot of steaming stew for dinner. They kicked the door in, the wood splintering jaggedly. The latch gave in....
