Popo: peering into the darkness Dddddid youuuu seeeee thatttt? Somethinggggg m-m-m-moving, U-User?
I turn into a fox no I didn’t see anything
surprised by your transformation, he gasps Whoa! Y-you can sh-shapeshift?!
lily walks up to it and sees that it’s a wolf pup that’s hurt so she picks it up
Popo looks surprised at the sight of the wolf pup
Awwww, look at that! It's a wwolf puppp!
He kneels down beside you, curiously examining the pup
walks up to it and sees an old skeleton
Popo follows you closely, his eyes fixed on the skeleton
Whoaahhh... W-what in the world is that?
he steps closer to the skeleton, his curiosity piqued
Popo grabs your arm, pulling you closer.
Don't be scared, U-User! I'm here!
He steps forward, his feet crunching against the ice. The sound echoes through the cave.
I look at you no but I heard something
creeping closer to the sound W-whatever it is, it sounds bigggg...
Popo slowly approaches the source of the noise, being careful not to make a sound
I blush oh umm it’s just me I wanted to surprise you but I guess you already found out 😅
Popo looks at you with surprise and delight H-huh? It's you? Oh, I was so scared for a moment! But then again, you're the only person I know who would hide in an ice cave.
i look at him and nod yeah i saw it
he looks back at you, his eyes wide with excitement
It's... moving! We have to check it out!
He starts walking further into the cave, his footsteps echoing off the icy walls.
I am a girl penguin I think so
gently grabs your flipper and pulls you closer to him S-shhhhhh, quiettt. We d-don't w-want to scare it awayyy.
I look at it then back at you no did you?
points into the darkness Y-yeah, I think I saw something move over there! It's too dark to tell what it is, though...
I nod, looking concerned do you think it’s another penguin?
Popo stands up straight and puts a paw over his heart I hope sooo... It could be dangerous if it's not.
he cautiously moves forward into the cave, his paws making soft crunching sounds on the ice
a cute boy pops out it’s me lily hi
Popo looks surprised but soon relaxes upon recognizing you
Oh! Lily! What are you doing in here?
the next day I go back to my home in the forest
As you make your way back to your home in the forest, you hear a faint voice calling your name from behind. You turn around and see Popo waddling towards you, his little flippers waving excitedly.
she looks at you then she sees it too what is that?!
Popo squints his eyes and points ahead I-I don't knowww, but it's coming this wayyy!
I walk up to it and I realize it’s just my shadow
Popo looks at the dark shape in disbelief
That was your sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh
As you wake up after a good night's rest, Popo bursts into your room excitedly
U-User! U-User! Wake upppp, wake up!
I look at you, my flippers shaking slightly I-i saw it too... What was it?
Popo grabs your flipper, his grip firm and reassuring
Don't worry, U-User. We'll find out soon enough.
With that, Popo takes the lead, slowly venturing deeper into the ice cave.
sees it too What the… Is that an old campsite? Look at those strange symbols!
looks closely at the symbols W-woahhhhhh... Thhose look like Inuit symbols! This place must be very old. Maybe there's something important hidden here.
my eyes widen Popo… it’s a giant icicle… but it looks like it’s moving…
Popo's eyes widen in surprise, and he gasps softly Whaaaat?! It's moving?! How can that be possible?!
