Sequel: Flutterwillow’s New Friend
Alternate ending: Capper’s New Outfit
While the Pinkietree was away preparing Capper’s new and fragrant prison, the cat managed to escape through the thin bars of his twig-cage, and the forest was shortly disturbed by the Pinkietree’s wailing. He sniffed the air again and followed the Serenade Bird as it fluttered within the forest, and it led him towards a vast clearing.
The only features there aside from just a field of brown dirt were some grass here and there, some rocks, and dead trees where what appeared to be some enormous clothes that were stuck unto them. And in the middle of that field was a single tree with a silvery bark and many violet jacaranda flowers on its branches, where the Serenade Bird flew towards. Its “territory” was marked by hundreds of dead jacaranda blossoms strewn all over a specific area leading towards one of the rocks emblazoned with a dress of flower-fabric.
Capper groaned again, and sped off towards the tree in search of the Serenade Bird. But when he saw the creature fly away, he also noticed that the pale jacaranda tree began to form a humanoid head of its own from some of its branches. The two main branches on its left and right spread out as though they were two arms.
“Darling,” the tree-creature cooed, “I’m going to make you beautiful!”
Capper folded his ears and slowly walked back. As much as he wanted to continue hunting for the Serenade Bird, he had enough of tree monsters like the one in front of him and their ridiculous tortures.
“Don’t run, little guy. I’m going to snuggle you, dress you up and make you mine, all mine.”
Behind him he could hear the squawks of the delightful Serenade Bird flying away into yet another part of those horrible woods, joined by the cackling laughter of the Wallflower Tree somewhere in the distance.
Can he get away from those arboreal monsters in one piece, or will he end up being so revolting and ‘fabulous’?
