Day 89

Gum E. decided that no matter how upset she was with her friends she couldn't leave them behind, especially if they'd decided they wanted to come along still.  She headed back inside as quickly as possible just in case the creature decided to shut the door.

In her absence her friends started to feel bad about the way they'd been acting.  She'd been right to get angry with them.  She hadn't asked them to come along and here they were whining.  They felt terrible and were determined to make it up to her.  But when they peeked over the edge of the mug they couldn't see her anywhere.  Savory Avery gave a terrified squeak and pointed to the open door.  "She must have left without us."  Sticky Lucy started to sniffle, it was rather pathetic sounding since she was determined not to cry.

Just then Gum E. poked her head up and smiled.  "What's up guys?  Wanna see where this adventure takes us?"  They all tackled her and after everyone had apologized they moved towards the open door.  The first thing they had to tackle once they got outside was a ginormous set of steps.  But once again it wasn't too much of a problem since they were so elasticy.  They bounced their way down the stairs and into the bushes.  Not sure what they should do next they waited.  It sure was hot out here and heat is not good for little gummies.

They were just about to panic when they saw a familiar pair of feet.  These particular feet belonged to a two legged they'd seen before.  Deciding this was safer than melting in the heat they hitched a ride on a shoe lace.  Unfortunately the two legged did not go very far.  It stopped in front of something silver and shiny and huge.  Transfixed by this new object they were not prepared when the two legged gotten eaten by the object.  They fell off in fright, deciding they did not like the shiny thing.  But instead of running Sweet Pete suggested they follow it.  He'd seen more of these shiny objects around and they moved pretty fast.  So, being careful not to anger it, least it eat them too, they climbed aboard wondering were it would take them next.
