Thanks for the comments. I can't post the artwork yet, beacuse it's not done. Here is the next chapter:
Chapter 5: The Truth
Scrap and Kru sneaked to the gate of the village quietly. "How are we goin' to get out of the village?" whispered Scrap. Kru held a finger over his mouth, then pointed up. Scrap looked up and saw 10 mudokin heads staring at him from the top of the gate. "Damn, they saw us. We gotta run." said Kru. Scrap said, "Are you crazy! They'll send a whole platoon after us!". Kru thought quickly. "Grip my back tight, like you were climbing a tree. Hang on, and don't look down.". Scrap did as he was told, then closed his eyes.
Scrap heard Kru jump and stomp on the ground. He felt the frigid air on his face, then opened his eyes. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!" Scrap screamed. They were about 80 ft. in the air! He saw them go down, and land with a hard PLOP. "What did you do?!" asked Scrap. "I can jump really high. It is a tallent me and Bud have. Didn't he tell you?" said Kru. "Nooo..... In fact, there is alot of things he didn't tell me! Why did he find me? Why were you nearby the village? I want answers!" Scrap yelled. "Kru looked around and saw a strong wind swirl around them. Scrap's skin turned black. "What's happinin'?!" Yelled Kru.
Scrap toned down his temper and said, "Sorry. I was just really stressed out. It's kinda hard to take a death in your fami-" Scrap was cut off by Kru saying, "Shut up!". Scrap looked around and saw mudokins closing in on him. "NO MORE!! I'm tired of these mudokins attacking us! Time to fight back!" Scrap yelled. Scrap's skin turned black again and he let out a loud roar. He grew taller, like Bud and Kru's size. Wind swirled around Scrap and Kru. All of the mudokins were knocked back. Scrap skin turned normal again, and all of the mudokins were dead. "Ssssscccrapp." Said Kru, as he fell down. Scrap was out cold.
"Wake up!" said Kru. He said this over and over until Bud came. "Brother?" said bud in a scruffyu voice, as if he was cut at the throat. "Bud!" said Kru loudly. "Kru, come here. Tell Sceap the truth. I'm not gonna make it. Take care of him, and don't bring him back to Ssskkum....." his voice trailed off. Don't leave me now brother! Please!" said Kru crying. He held his ear up to Bud's chest. His heart wasn't beating. "NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Screamed Kru. Bud was dead.
