1 Sweet Relish and Meteors

Aaron's dark blue eyes fluttered open as light shines through his blinds. The small brown wolf yawned while stretching. He began to go through his normal morning routine. He took a shower, brushed his fur, ate breakfast, and grabbed everything he needed for school. Aaron quickly put on his favorite bracelet. It had a real silver chain with a larger star shaped sapphire with smaller stars around the chain. Aaron didn't come from some rich family, but the bracelet was something passed down from generation to generation. It was made hundreds of years ago, and was given to him once he turned 15. Aaron ran out the door, his mom already out work. He sped through the town, trying to get to school on time. It was the last day of school, but he wanted to talk his Blake, his best friend.

He arrived at school, panting heavily. The small wolf raised his head and smiled. "Hey Blake" Aaron barked, still out of breath. He was then wrapped in a bro hug.

"Dude! It's the last day of school! I overheard some seniors talking about a big prank and-" began Blake. Blake was a tall wolf. He was only 17, but was taller than most wolves in town. He had lush orange fur, with a grey face, paws, and tail tip. Blake had beautiful hazel eyes, always glistening like stars.

"Well don't spoil it!" Aaron yapped, his tail wagging at his friend's antics.

"No no no no no. You don't understand. We're in on it."

"Wait wha-" he started, but he was soon being dragged by a tall orange mess into the auditorium. "What are we even doing?" Aaron asked. He wasn't upset, in fact, he was ecstatic. Aaron loved pranks. Blake quickly shushed his friend as a black and white cat tested a microphone.

"Testing testing. We good? Alright. Everyone may I have your attention! Thank you. It appears to me, that you are all in the danger zone! Look up, sheeple!" The beautiful she-cat called, her voice ringing throughout the whole room. As soon as she finished talking, multiple heads whipped upwards to look at the ceiling. It was covered with huge containers of some unknown substance. "Once I press this button" she announced, holding up a remote with a big red button on it. "Relish will come pouring down! Unless you would like to smell like pickles all day, I suggest getting behind the curtains." The cat finished.

Soon enough, after loads of pushing and shoving, they were all hidden. All except two. The she-cat from before, and her best friend, a sandy brown male coyote with silver accents on his head. "And before we do anything, I'd like to thank my good friend QuickRush. This wouldn't been possible without him." She said into the microphone. The coyote took the microphone from her, smiling.

"She's just being humble. Domino, you are the real MVP behind this" QuickRush said to the Black and white she-cat before addressing the crowd once more. He opened his mouth to say something but was cut off with a round of applause from the seniors, and two juniors. "Now let's get this prank started!" The coyote exclaimed once the cheering died down. As he said that the cheering started right back up. QuickRush ran out of the auditorium and soon enough they heard his voice over the speakers. "Please report to the auditorium immediately, I repeat, please report to the auditorium immediately"

The crowd was having trouble holding in their giggles but they managed. Almost the entire school flooded into the room. The teachers were confused, but lead them into the auditorium. QuickRush was well liked by almost every teacher, so that probably had something to do with their compliance. He walked up onto stage and tested the mic. "Hello. I just wanted to tell you... it smells a bit like relish in here." QuickRush said smugly. The students and teachers appeared to be sniffing the air, confused. "NOW!" He yelled and Domino pressed the button. And at the moment tons of relish came pouring down. The teachers were livid.

"FOLLOW ME BOYS! The black and white she-cat screamed and the entire senior year, plus the two juniors, ran after Domino, out of the school, and into the nearby woods. All was quiet for a moment before they all burst out laughing, the stench of sweet relish still in their noses. The group had a nice moment of chatting, clowning around, and over all having a good time.

That is, until something fell. Something big. From the sky. Something big fell from the sky and it landed really close. The ground shook and most of the students fell to the ground. Scared whispers and screams were heard all around. Aaron looked around and got up from the ground. "I'll check it out" he announced daringly.

"No, I can-" Domino started

"No. I'll check it out" Aaron insisted.

"Look, kid, it's fine. I'll go check it out. It's not safe"

"No, really, I'm checking out." The tiny brown wolf yapped. He was angry, but he just looked like a pouting middle schooler. "I can handle it. Right, Carrot?" Aaron asked, looking to Blake.

"It's dangerous Minty... you should probably let Domino go.." Blake mumbled, not meeting his friend's eyes.

"Bullshit..." Aaron mumbled before sprinting towards the direction of the sound. He heard calls of protest followed by paw steps but he kept running until he found the object. The small wolf paced around it, studying it. It looked like a meteor. 'Strange...' he thought. The paw steps got louder and louder until they came to a haunt.

"Oh thank God youre o-" someone began before everything went black.
