Almost large enough to be considered a theme park while remaining free to the public, Terrace Park is rumored to have been the site of the Grand Hollowheart's defeat, leading to the Hollowhearts first accepting a pact with humans. (+2 Fame, +2 Endurance)

Waddling Around the Park (RE2) [Done]

(Beware that this is really just to earn me a bunch of KS for the raffle, so the content won't be as well written as normal.)


"Do you think that we'll find one of those flappy-birdy-thingies here?" Squeak said in her high pitched voice as she bounced along the sidewalk.  "I doubt it, but maybe.  Those things are pretty cool." Pip said, equally hyper.  This was the twins first time out of the caverns, and the new sights and sounds were so foreign and fun to them.


If you knew knew what the bluebirds sang at you
You would never sing along
Cast them out cause this is our culture
These new flocks are nothing but vultures

Because they took our love and they filled it up
Filled it up with Novocaine and now Im just numb
And don't mind me, Im just a son of a gun
So dont stop, dont stop until your heart goes numb
I dont feel a thing for you

It was already extremely hot that day, and the warm coats that Pip and Squeak had wasn't helping at all.  "What I wouldn't do for a cold pool." Pip said in a tired voice.  They hadn't been out for more than an hour, but the heat was taking its tole on them.  "Come on, we can take it.  Besides, once the sun starts to go down, it'll be better." her brother said encouragingly.  That was one of the reasons she admired Squeak so much.  He was always trying to make her feel good, and keep her happy.  Perking up at his words, she picked up the pace.  "Let's try some of those trees.  Maybe a birdy will be in one."

And so the two went shaking trees along the sidewalk, but nothing seemed to want to come out.  Once an angry Matches came out squawking at them, but it burst into flames right as it was coming for Pip.  Not waiting for it to come back to life, the two hurried off, suppressing giggles.  "We'd better be more careful." Squeak said between laughs.  "Yeah, I guess you're right..." Pip amitted with a sigh.

It was already about three o'clock, but the two didn't have any thoughts of heading home.  As far as they were concerned, they were going to stay in the park for the next few days.  It was much to fun here, especially compared with the Caverns.  Everyone there was hustling around, and they always found themselves cooped up in a room, bored out of their little minds.  But here, no one could tell them what to do.  It was like a dream come true.

"So now what do we do?  I don't really want to go back and search the trees.  Not after that mean old Matches..." Pip said.  Trying her best not to sulk in front of her brother, she trudged on.  Normally she would play around in the nursery, sense they were so small.  Of course, that didn't mean they were young, they were actually about to turn eight.  But a lot of the people there thought they needed to be protected.  It annoyed both of them, but now that they were finally allowed out, they didn't mind now.  All that mattered was that they got to stay here and have lots of fun.

"If you don't want to try and find a bird, than what should we do?" Squeak challenged his sister.  In his opinion, that encounter with the Matches was actually really funny.  He wouldn't mind having it happen again actually.  "Well, I dunno.  Maybe we could look around some other places." she said, knowing that her brother would probably argue with such a weak protest.

"Whatever, I'm going to go look around more.  You can stay here if your to afraid." Squeak said in a mocking tone.  Knowing that she would follow, he set off toward one of the bigger trees.  It was getting a bit darker, but he could still see pretty well.  Going up to the tree, he grabbed onto one of the lowest branches, and began to jump on it.  That sent a wave of rustling through the tree.  But suddenly the leaves all seemed to come straight at him, but they weren't actually leaves. They were Batty!  "Aaaah!" he screamed, falling off.  Panting, he was at his sister's side in an instant.  "I told you so." she said in the most innocent way she could.

"That wasn't funny you know." Squeak said with a sour look on his face.  "Besides, they were totally hidden, how was I supposed to know that they were there?" Pip of course, had a big grin from ear to ear on her face as she walked over and pointed at a sign in front of the trees.  It read, 'Please be aware of the Batty that migrate and sleep in these trees.'  "Well I didn't see that either..."

Now that they both agreed on staying away from the trees for a while, the two had to figure out what to do next.  They certainly weren't going to just sit around and waste this precious freedom.  "Excuse me." The twins both jumped at the gruff voice that just spoke.  Turning around, they saw a park ranger looking at them. "Hello little ones.  You're awfully young to be here alone.  May I know where your parents are?"

Now this was something that the two definitely hadn't planned on happening.  Luckily though, Pip was fast on her feet, and smoothely looked into the ranger's eyes.  In her cutest voice, she said, "We aren't here with our parents sir.  Our baby-sitter is here though." Hoping that he wouldn't go over and confirm what she was about to say, Pip pointed to a young Tali girl that was sitting on a blanket a few feet away.  "She's the one that brings us here most of the time.  You can go ask her if you'd like to make sure.  She won't mind." "Oh no, that won't be necessary.  Thanks kiddos, have a fun day here in Terrace."  With one last smile, he walked off.

"That was waaay to close." Squeak said as they started walking in the other direction.  Hopefully they wouldn't meet up with him again though, or else there would definitely be trouble.  "So where were we." he said playfully.  "Trying to figure out what we should do next, right.  Hmmmm, how about we go see if there's any of those dumb old Nueleefs around here.  They're always really fun to fool with."

Grudgingly, Pip agreed, but she still didn't think it was right.  Sure, the Nueleefs were pretty dumb, but it still wasn't right to mess with them.  "I wish that we could find one of those shoe-bird-things around here.  I betcha everyone else would be so impressed that they'd let us go out whenever and wherever we wanted." she said dreamily.  "Don't get your hopes up sis.  You know that the chances are like, one in a million."

"Yeah, and thanks for being sooooo supportive." Pip said, rolling her eyes.  Squeak could be so down sometimes, and yet to happy and positive other times.  It never really made sense to her...  "Well yeah, but let's just keep going.  It's pretty dark out already.  But I don't really wanna go home, so how about we camp out here?"  The idea of camping out on their own thrilled and scared both of them.  But after a few minutes, they both agreed to it.  "I just hope that everyone back home won't be scared." "They won't," Squeak reassured his sister with a warm voice. "I bet they don't even remember we're gone."

Once that was decided, the twins set to work.  Pip went off and began to tug some big branches toward her brother, who was pulling some old ivy vines down.  Using those, they were able to tie the branches together.  "Help me lean this against those trees." Squeak said.  It was extremely heavy, even with the both of them lifting it, but once it was leaned up against three trees that were extremely close together, it was perfect for sleeping in.  They gathered up some leaves and smaller twigs, and soon there were two nests inside.  "This is great!" Pip exclaimed.  Going in, Squeak used a bunch of twisted vines and branches to block off the entrance.  Once they had finished, both collapsed into the nests, and went straight to sleep.

With a wide yawn, Squeak sat up.  He wasn't sure what had woken him, but now that he was awake, it would take a while to get back to sleep.  Knowing that he wasn't patient enough to just lay there and try to fall back asleep, he pushed aside the little makeshift block at the entrance.  Placing it back as quietly as he could, Squeak looked around.  It took a minute or two, but his eyes finally adjusted to the pale light outside.  Dawn couldn't be but a few hours away though.  Not wanting to stay out and have his sister wake up alone, he decided that he would stay close to their little 'camp while exploring.  "Well, let's see what we can find."
