《Peppa's Chronicles》


 The Start Of Suffering

    ¡°Mom, Dad, and George.¡±


    ¡°Look what I made at school today!¡± Peppa exclaimed, holding up a drawing that depicted her family with bright, crayon colors. Daddy Pig smiled faintly, ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so realistic!¡±


    ¡°I know¡­ It looks just like you, Daddy!¡± She beamed.


    Daddy Pig stood up; his expression faded as he slowly made his way to the door. Mommy Pig rose to take his hand, her eyes filled with concern. ¡°Where are you going, Daddy Pig?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m going to the bar.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Peppa and George replied in unison, their voices carrying an innocent tone. ¡°Bye, Daddy.¡±


    After they waved goodbye, Peppa and George settled into their bedtime routines. Later, as Peppa got out of bed to head to the restroom, she noticed George¡¯s bed was empty. A twinge of unease prickled her skin as she quietly crept downstairs, thinking George might have gone to get some water.

    But what she discovered sent a chill through her tiny frame¡ªher mother lay motionless on the floor, the scene a horrific tableau. Blood pooled beneath her, and the grotesque sight of exposed organs was almost too much for Peppa to bear. An unbearable odor seeped into the air, overwhelming her senses.


    As Peppa descended the stairs, a dazed look of horror clouded her face. She walked closer to her mother¡¯s lifeless body, her heart racing as panic engulfed her. ¡°This is a dream, this is a dream, this is a dream,¡± she repeated, clinging to the useless hope that it was all a dream.


    For what felt like hours, Peppa stood completely still above her mother¡¯s corpse, covered in flies, as the truth sank in¡ªher mother was dead, her brother was missing, and her father had vanished. In that moment, something inside her snapped.

 A New Beginning

    As Peppa slowly began to comprehend the gravity of her situation, a sense of urgency washed over her. Whoever had taken her beloved Daddy Pig and little brother George¡ªand murdered Mommy Pig¡ªwould surely be searching for her next. Gritting her teeth, Peppa rose to her feet and stepped cautiously out of the house, greeted by the soft glow of dawn. It must have been several hours since she had awakened. ¡°Where should I go now?¡± she pondered. ¡°Perhaps the coastal city of Rimoto¡­ It would allow me to escape the southern continent and journey eastward.¡±


    In that moment, Peppa resolved to train in the mystical eastern realm of Clazzerdia, seeking a mentor who could teach her to shed her fragile mortal skin and wield weapons fit for gods. As she walked, Peppa soon spotted a carriage coming to a halt. She realized she would need to wait until 10 a.m. for the first ride to Rimoto. Taking a seat on a nearby bench, despair enveloped her like a cold fog, and tears streamed down her cheeks as the enormity of her loss sank in. Flashbacks invaded her mind: the harrowing image of her mother¡¯s organs spilling out, the stark horror of George¡¯s abduction, and the desperate wish that this was all just a nightmare.Reading on Amazon or a pirate site?

    Suddenly, her turbulent memories were interrupted when an elderly woman settled beside her. The woman gently patted Peppa¡¯s shoulder, her voice warm and soothing. ¡°Tough day, huh?¡± Peppa looked up, meeting the woman¡¯s kind gaze, and nodded silently. The woman wrapped her arms around Peppa in a comforting embrace, and in that fleeting moment of solace, Peppa felt her consciousness slip away, darkness engulfing her like a protective shroud.
