A Task From Vask - Story Complete!

[Freya_Druid]

It was at this moment that Vask heard the distant chittering of Zipper’s devouring front teeth…

 

[-Apples-]

He then ran away and got out of the tunnel, hoping that Zipper doesn’t chase after him.

 

[Zerous]

Suddenly, Vask came to a halt, realising that if maybe he could also use the egg...

 

[You got mail!]

He went back to the tunnel, sprinting towards the egg as fast as possible.

But off in the distance, Vask could hear the Easter music amongst the bounding leaps that Zipper was making towards him and the egg.

 

[duckvely]

Vask knew that he couldn't let Zipper reach the egg before him.

 

[LittleMissPanda]

But before either of them could reach the egg, to their complete surprise it sprouted two tiny legs and made a run for it!

 

[Mimi Cheems]

The egg ran swiftly, away from both Zipper and Vask.

 

[-Apples-]

The egg then hatched, revealing itself to be a chick, which looked really scary, but acted very goofy.

 

[Tiger_Lily]

Little did they know, this chick held the key to their survival.

 

[corlee1289]

One that would surprise everyone.

 

[Firesquids]

The chick, tweeting and whistling in increasing pitch and volume, began to swell in size.

 

[-Apples-]

The tweeting and whistling was so loud that the same carriage that Jack was in came towards the tunnel.

 

[airpeaches]

With the increase of its pitch and sudden intake of air, the chick began to float upward, flapping its petite wings to keep propelling it further from the three pursuants.

 

[Sarah3]

But before the chick knew it, the air keeping itself afloat became thin.

 

[Holla]

The chick struggled to breathe in the thin air resulting in its wings slowing and it slowly drifted back towards the ground.

 

[Ravenkitty22]

After a couple failed attempts at flying, a substance that resembled a cursed pixie dust started to surround the chick.

 

[Darkesque_]

Right before the chick’s beady eyes, he began to ascend toward the horizon.

 

[-Apples-]

He began to fly away successfully because he was happy, and the pixie dust only works while the affected creature is happy.

 

[corlee1289]

Some of the cursed pixie dust surrounding the happy chick started to take shape into little soot balls with eyes, these were to become little companions for the chick.
