Socks was sitting in the woods alone, again.
He was furious about yesterday, he stabbed the ground with a stick.
Rage growing inside of him, he again, flipped a switch on his glove.
Voices began to ring in his head.

"Do it."
"Set the forest aflame"
"Make the flames grow"
"It's time"
"He's waiting on your mark"
"Time to shine"
"It begins now"

   The voices began to overlap each other, and Socks was wrapped in the voices control. He made up his mind.

"It is time!"
Socks cheered.

   He burst out flames from his gloves, and he set the forest in flames. The fire grew and spread quickly, and smoke began to fill the sky. Turning it dark, even though it was noon. Socks ran out of the forest, trying to run from this crime.

   As he came back to where everyone was at, they didn't see the fire, just the smoke.
They all had their mouths open in shock, but Laff wasn't reacting to it. He looked at Socks and gave a tiny nod.

"Where is this other fire!?"
Oof asked.

"We need to find it!"
Woolfster urged.

"We do, otherwise it's going to destroy us more than ever."
Nadwe predicted.

"Stop talking here, and let's go find it!"
TBVG urged.

"Alright, we need to send several searching parties."
Nadwe quickly added.
"Muffin and I will go together, and y'all choose your partners and-"

"It's right here!"
Dino gasped.

   Oompa stared at the flames that were coming in their direction, and he was horrified as he lost most of his mustache in the previous fire. Nadwe spouted wings from his back, and carried Muffin away from the place. Everyone was now accepting defeat, but Meme wasn't.

"We are not going to lose our homes again!
We must end this!"
Meme shouted.

   Socks had different plans though, he shot out a burst of flames at Meme's face.
Meme screamed, and got devoured in the fire that was shot at him.
Everyone had seen, and ran at Socks.
But the spaceman shot out more bursts of flames, and burnt his friends.

   He protected himself well, and Laff transformed into a robotic suit.
Dino hesitated, but ran to their side.
He grabbed out a sniper, and Meme knew that was the one that killed his wife.
The three terrorists were now winning this fight. And they let out a shout of victory.
Socks didn't, but did shot out more flames.

   But he forgot someone who meant the world to him...

Nadwe.

He had forgotten about his only son, but luckily he had escaped his madness.
Dino, Laff and Socks were maniacally laughing. Everyone was letting out screams of horror, and pain.

  Socks couldn't hold in his anger, and focused on a specific target.
Meme.
He ran at him, aiming his hand at him.
Meme was blinded by all the smoke, and hardly noticed Socks. But as the smallest hint of orange, he ran out of the way.

   The spaceman let out a growl of annoyance. Woolfster tried to leap at Socks, but Dino shot his leg. The furry winced in pain, and looked deeply at his old friend.
Dino gave a face of guilt, but then turned to look at Laff.

"They're trapped by the fire surrounding them, is it time too?"
Dino asked the gas-man.

"If they escape, it would be a miracle!"
Laff chuckled.
"But they can't, have fun."

    Woolfster limped toward Dino, hoping for him not to shoot. He didn't, luckily, and Dino just stared at his bleeding friend.

"Why, Dino?"
Woolfster asked, weakly.
"After all the good memories we had-.
All the things we've been through..."

   Dino let his tail go limp, and his eyes started to water. Emotion was taking over, but Laff made sure he didn't.

"Cmon, he's a furry."
Laff urged.
"No point in having him as a friend."

   Laff grabbed Dino's shoulder from behind, Dino let out a sigh but agreed.
Woolfster let out a gasp, he was horrified at what his best friend had become.

"I can't believe you!"
Woolfster coughed.

   Dino lashes his tail to shut up Woolfster,
but he also couldn't believe himself.
Flames were behind him, and luckily that let him get back to target someone else.

    Laff was launching metal arms from his back, and sent people into the air.

"Stop...Laff...before you...lose..."
A old voice whispered in his ear.

"Jooice!?"

But no one was there.
Socks heard what Laff said, and immediately stopped. He did miss Jooice, he didn't mean to kill him.
All he wanted was to warn them.
Not kill...his brother.
(THEIR NOT ACTUALLY BROTHERS
They just seemed like brothers)

    Screams rang in his ears, and luckily Nadwe wasn't here.
If Socks hurt Nadwe, he would kill himself.
But now...he couldn't.
He was under his own, and Laff's rule.
Nothing could stop this madness.

   Fire was overwhelming the area, and Socks made it grow. Screams kept growing louder, sounding like cheers to Socks.
Meme was laying on the ground as blood dripped from his mouth.
The grass was covered in blood and ash.

Socks walked up to Meme's body, thinking he was dead.

"You're dead, at last!"
Socks cheered.

"Nuh uh"

  Meme awoke and grabbed Sock's neck.
As he was strangling him, Socks let out another burst of flame from his glove.
Meme's foot got burnt, he instantly let go.
Pain was overwhelming him, and he let out roars of pain and fury.

  Socks was enjoying it, and proceeded to burst more flames from his hand.
But his strength was weakened by exhaustion. He gave out a last blast of flame, and tiredly walked over to Laff.

"Alright,"
Laff began.
"Dino, Socks!
It's time we go. Let them suffer."

  As they went through the fire, unburnt, they left. Everyone was coughing and fighting for their life.
Everyone went limp, and thought that the fire would burn them alive.

They accepted their defeat.
It was up to Fate if they would even survive this madness.

Alright, quick start.
But I like it >:)))
Also somehow some managed to predict all the events that happens 🥲😰😱

Horrifying.

Crispy, Juicy, Tender!
