Description
The morning was still fresh when Razzle and her squad of bug scouts ventured out for the day for their activities. Thankfully they didn’t have to go out at the crack of dawn like they had to last week, and they were all glad about that. Seeing other groups of Wyngrew already gathering around the area, they went to quickly seek out Fievel for their list of activities. For whatever reason Fievel seemed a lot more chipper than he’d been the past few weeks. He noticed Razzle and the others approaching and waved them over excitedly, clutching the activity list all the while.
“Hello! Good morning you four! Do you remember the Buddees you made cute little houses for in our first week of camp?”
Everyone nodded, including Thumper who seemed a little embarrassed over how scared he’d gotten of them initially.
“Well they loved the houses so much that they metamorphosed into adult Chummys!” As Fievel said that he excitedly handed out their list of activities for the day.
“Meta…morphosed? What does that mean?” Kermit asked curiously.
“Good question little one!” Fievel responded. “Metamorphosis is a process some insects go through where they wrap themselves in a cocoon for a while to turn into adults! The process usually drastically changes their appearance and sometimes even their behavior as you’ll see with the cute little Chummys.”
All the Wynglings looked surprised by this knowledge, and even Razzle did as well. She admittedly didn’t know a lot about bugs at first aside from the fact that they were cool.
“Well off you guys go~” Fievel chimed. “The Chummys love to sing, so I want you guys to play some music for them. I have a small collection of instruments here that you can borrow for it~”
Hearing that, Thumper quickly rushed over to the instruments, the others following suit. It didn’t take long for him to dig up a drum while Kermit picked up a small little guitar.
“I think I’ll help by serenading them with a song.” Purisima stated happily. “Just be sure to give me a good tune to sing to.” She jokingly winked. Thumper admittedly seemed a little frazzled by that gesture.
The trek to the woods wasn’t as tiring as last week, even with the instruments in hand. Fall was starting to hit parts of Wynsiph more than others, and some of the trees were already starting to change colors and lose their leaves.
It didn’t take long for the group to hear the chirping and humming of the Chummys, right around the area they’d initially made little houses for them.
“What do you think they look like?” Kermit asked as she plopped down on the ground, guitar in hand.
“Maybe they’ll come out once we start playing some music.” Razzle suggested as she sat down as well, gesturing for Purisima and Thumper to follow suit.
The little concert was a little awkward at first as Thumper and Kermit tried to get a decent tune going together, but once they did Purisima joined in with her singing. It didn’t take long after that for the Chummys to start coming out. They certainly looked like Buddees, but different enough to tell they were adults.
“Look, look, there they are!” Thumper said excitedly as he pounded away at the drum.
As they continued to play, more Chummys started to gather. They were a little quiet at first, almost listening to the music to contemplate how to add to it before they all began to harmonize with the group. Their chittering combined with the music was a delight to listen to, and Razzle couldn’t help but close her eyes and listen to it as a light breeze swayed over the area.
