Drowning Underneath

''Sputter, sputter. Cough, cough. Then nothing. Just a few bubbles on top of the glassy water. Once those bubbles pop, its done. Its too late.''

A fox padded into Jamaa Township. It picked up the Jamaa Journal, and started to flip the pages. All of a sudden, a page caught its eye. It peered down at the fine text, taking it in.

The Finals
The fox hurried down a narrow pathway, hoping to show greatness. It's footsteps made eerie echos, as the path soon lead into a cave. The fox had made it to the finals of were it can be picked as the Fox Alpha! ''Ocean the Fox Alpha has a ring to it! ''The little fluff-ball thought, reaching its destination. There stood Sir Gilbert, grand and regal looking, as he told the quest. "You must race down this trap-filled, narrow passageway. And every time you see a flag, reach its placeholder and answer the complex riddle. then, figure out the puzzle problem at the gateway. This is not the end. Now, you must tell fibs and truths. When Liza asks you how many tales you told, answer honestly, or give up on your dreams." He instructed.

Our main fox scurried down the pathway, the others not far behind. Soon enough, she pounced at the first flag, the others groaning. '''"If 1 equal 5, 2 equals 25, 3 equals 325, and 4 equals 425, what does 5 equal?" '''It questioned. "Hmm..." The little fox mumbled. ''1 equals 5, 2 equals 25, 3 equals - WAIT! 1 equals 5!'' "I got it! Its 1!" She exclaimed. The questionnaire released the flag, and Ocean hurried on. Grabbing almost all the flags and answering riddles, she finally beat the others to the puzzle. "Huh?" She gasped. The puzzle was already in place! "Yea~!" she hollered, pressing the lit up button. She told lies and tales, truths and honest-tales. Liza stood at the portal. "How many fibs did you speak?" she cooed. The little fox peered into her violet eyes. "I told 10.." she said guiltily. Liza held up a paper and hugged her. "You did it!" She exclaimed.

Alpha-hood
The fox grabbed her quarterstaff. She placed Amelia's old jade into its keyhole. She held up the staff, beaming. Her new outfit - a rare headdress with a black long- shone in her room's light. She headed to the secret building's door, and fell. This was normal. She landed gracefully onto a luxury cushion. Stepping off, she gazed at her statue. Shining white in the first floor of Alpha HQ, her bio read,

' '''{image} Ocean, the Fox Alpha, is always beaming with skill. Even she will admit, that she always gets carried away. With her quarterstaff sparkling, she is the most graceful Alpha. This fox's hope is that one day Jamaa will not fret of the Phantoms. '''

She let the amazed Jammers in, all rushing over to find out more about Jamaa's newest, Alpha.

Betrayal
Ocean gathered around Crystal Sands' glittering, BUT EXTREMELY DEEP, ocean. Greely took of her headdress and black collar and sneered, "You won't be needing this anymore." He skillfully pushed her into the deepest part - now known as Ocean's Hollow - "AHH!" She exclaimed. All the Alphas just waved. She gasped, as Peck eerily explained:

"You foolish little pet. You thought you were grand? Skillful? Courageous? Anything good? Nope. Didn't it seem strange that the puzzle was ready for you? You were foolish. Those other foxes were robots." "Goodbye now." Cosmo added. Sir Gilbert pounced on her, and dragged her down. Sir Gilbert swam up. Not knowing how to swim, Ocean panicked. She looked at what server she was on her Jam-Watch, and I said blankly, "Drowning" "Help..." she whispered, using her last breath.

The lights went out of her eyes.
