Jerry the Sasquatch and his story

[Kittyara207]

A brief description and then the first chapter.  Let me know how you like it.   A few of us on a member's page were talking about Jerry and his apple addiction and many other ideas.  So I like weird stories if its liked I will do more chapters here otherwise only on the writing site I usually stay with.

Jerry was a wonderful Sasquatch.  He would do all the squatch like activities.  However, after years of doing things the way he was taught and brought up thinking terrorizing people and raiding their campsites was completely acceptable.   And he was one of the best at these activities.  Awards were won for his behavior.  Top Squatch and Hero to all forest inhabitants.  Many medals and keys to forest cities were collected.

But there was this one day where it all changed for him.  He learned he could make so many new friends.   He met a group of people that were not alike most people. They were special and this is the story:

 

Cahpter one  Who is Jerry

  Jerry is a special Sasquatch.  He prefers to be called 'An individual with a excessive hair growth, suffering from abnormally large feet'.  This is his story his origin story if you please.

Day to day and night to night he is a different individual than he was at one point.  

Jerry was training the new and upcoming Sasouns (the Sasquatches that are in the last year) these ones will be starting the raiding soon and Jerry's younger brother Mitchell is among these younger ones.  Jerry like many other of his kind that have many siblings!   Brothers and sisters!  They have been traveling from deep in the forest to closer to the outskirts for their first sight of humans.  This can be scary for some of them few cannot handle seeing these hairless beasts scary with their weapons and flashing devices always trying to capture them.  This is a right of passage to where they just watch the humans for a few weeks then their first full raid.  Jerry has been doing this for so many years he has forgotten what it is like to be young.  He will be retiring soon and moving on.  His middle brother will be taking his place as a teacher as it is his clan that has the responsibility of this position.

They are walking through the deeper part of the forest to closer to where the humans usually camp out.  As they get closer you can smell the smoke from their fires.  Jerry thinks to himself they had better keep an eye on these ones it seems like they have left a fire burning while out of the area.  He is talking quietly to his group there are only 5 this time.  Some of the Sasses have decided to keep their young home and forgo the traditional ways which is causing some tension amongst the elders and some of the older well rooted families.  He starts talking about the different things that they are noticing and that they need to be watchful for.  As the humans could be back at anytime.   One of his charges has noticed that the wildlife in the area have found and made their way here due to food left around.  

Upon the few weeks they have taken note of the inhabitants most only stay 3-4 days.  There is a new house that has been built close to the regular camping areas.  And there seems to be someone in this house.  They are moving around within the house he keeps an eye on this individual wondering what has a human so far into his territory.  Humans and their inability to smell and find out where places have been marked by others is a reason they are having so many people attacked.  Maybe they are looking for proof of their kind again.  The sasses have a trick they play on these humans which usually makes those humans laughing stalks of their communities.  

The Sasses that are of his best friend's clan are the ones that are charged with this.  They are the type that dress in overly fake looking 'Yeti' costumes and have these fake foot coverings to make their feet look comically larger than they are.   And they are already much bigger than the humans.  They parade all over deeper in the wooded areas attracting 'conspiracy' nuts and getting them to take their photos and make casts of their 'feet'.  So when the humans bring back pictures 'evidence' they are easily proven fake costumes.  95% of the sightings are set up to look real but are just this.  The few with real looking pictures are times they have been caught unaware.  As you can imagine it usually causes mild panic amongst many of Jerry's kind.

The Sassouns are doing well.  And taking notes knowing there will be a test at a later date.   One in particular seems really interested in a few of these humans and has to be reminded the humans are not to be trusted.   The sass was getting close to this one human and looked like they were going to approach the human.  Until he saw that human up close and saw that they may have had a beard and long hair but no hair elsewhere.   It was simply terrifying for the younger sass.  Jerry seemed to breath in relief at this.  Jerry had been around the humans so much he was no longer afraid and may have not been taking as many precautions as he should have.  He was getting more and more interested in such creatures.

The humans seem to be moving further and further into the woods and taking over more an more of the land.  This is unsettling.  Jerry and his kind have to find more of a way to keep them out seeing the humans are accidentally burning their forests down bit by bit.  There has been talk about finding a way to buy up the land to keep them out of their lands.  But so far they have no one on the outside.  They need to find someone whom they can trust but they have rules and laws in their culture to keep them apart.  They also need to find a way to make money to do such.   But too many are arguing about how to go about this and if they should abandon all their laws that have kept them safe for many more years than humans have been around.    No idea what should be done.  But something needs to be done and done soon.

 Chapter 2 

                                                                                                              Jerry and Andy meet

     Andy was looking to build his house in the forest.  He was always close to nature and loved to be away from everything.  Being amongst the big cities was tiring and just not his thing.  He was told by many people that these woods were haunted and also there were Sasquatches in the area and they did not take well to outsiders.  That they may attack or burn his house down.  But even if they are real which they're not why would they do anything that might attract unwanted attention or even chance burning down the very forest they call home? 

 

      He had finally finished his house made mainly by him and a few of the carpenters and he did most of the electricity and plumbing himself.  Kind off the grid or as much as he could.  He has the plans of teaching the everyday people how to live more off the land and with the wildlife.  Not that he was a vegetarian but still hunting was not really his thing.  Andy was most definitely one of those guys.  Red flannel shirts, hiking boots, baseball cap, country music lover and pick up truck driving.   Retired semi truck driver.  Just the all around next door type of guy.  

      There was little touches he still needed to do to get things just right.  A few pictures to hang up.  Rearranging furniture the people who had helped him move things just kind of left them right inside.  He had a tv but it wasn't the focal point of his livingroom.  A huge fireplace with big thick carpet in front of it.  And overly sized bay windows that would let in plenty of natural light and allow one to see the moons light.  Even large sized sunroofs in many of the rooms.   As natural as could be.   The neighbors cat Mr. Snuggles has been coming over almost daily no idea what or why.  Just a huge white cat not to body shame this cat but with how much activity this cat gets how much it must eat!  He's not a very agreeable animal.  Always seems mean or on guard.  Wondering why such a creature likes him enough to come over?

       Upon setting things up in the house he passed the over sized windows seeing something tall and brown at first thinking it was just the trees the object seemed to move slightly.  Knowing trees don't move on their own unless you ate the mushrooms in the forest.  Andy makes like he's going to walk away when the object turns and pretty sure he just saw glowing eyes like you would an animal but yet a bit different.  Andy walks a bit more to the window and sees a big brown bear like creature however walking on two feet with arms hanging to the sides like a person.  Shaking his head maybe its from being over tired from the move and not eating very well during the move.  Walks over to the cupboard seeing only pepperoni, and in the fridge grape soda...thinking to his self 'Ummm wow definitely need to hit the store.  Breakfast looks bleak.

 

       Grabbing a pepperoni stick, a small knife and a bottle of grape soda...Wondering who bought grape soda?  Never being a big fan of it.  Knowing orange is so much better than this.  But oh, well.  Walking out onto the big wrap around porch he has multiple chairs out here for when he starts his mentoring or survivalist camp.   Cutting into the pepperoni seeing the movement once again.  Places the pepperoni and a bottle of the grape soda its one of those big 2 liter bottles out on one of the picnic tables.  He even opened the bottle and unwrapped the pepperoni to make it more accessible for whatever creature might want it.  Saying aloud in English and also says it in French this is closer to the Canadian border after all.  "Just going to leave this here in case you are hungry or thirsty."  Than thinks what creatures actually understand human languages?   Shakes his head as he leaves back in.

       After about an hour Andy decides to head to bed for tomorrow there is still so much to get done as well.  He looks out front and sees the big brown creature has come closer and can kind of see a face.  Long hair past his shoulders.  His face has little hair other than regular eyebrows, hair on chin but he looks more humanoid than not.  Tall about 8ft tall brown fur well groomed on arms and legs.  Not a stitch of clothing on the body other than a loin cloth like on his nether region.  Looking down to his feet they are quite big but proportionate to the rest of his body.  The big footed, hairy creature we will be referring to as a sasquatch.   Is now staring at the food and drink with a hairy eyeball.  Considering if it is any good.  Looks around for anything that might represent a trap or trap like.    The sasquatch picks up the pepperoni stick and sniffs it...it must smell good because he licks his lips with a smile on his face and bites into it and grunts in approval!  Looks at the grape soda and sniffs it giving it a grimace but takes a big drink from it.  It must taste worse than perceived because the squatch glares at the soda throws it down makes a horrid face like a kid biting into liver.  And throws said drink to the ground grabbing at his stomach.

 

       With the thought he may have given the first true sasquatch ever seen a major stomach ache and possible indigestion he has no way to fix said issue and probably should never have left the food or drink out without better knowledge of the creatures sensitive stomach towards sugar and overly processed substances.   A loud growl and screeching noise coming from the sasquatch is unnerving and kind of scary.  Well time for bed most assuredly before he does anything else to endanger wildlife in his backyard.  Maybe tomorrow will shed new light on this or maybe he's already asleep and this is just some messed up dream.

                                                                                              Not A Dream

        Andy is awoken by a knocking on the door.  Someone visiting at this time and on a weekend?  What and who could it be?  Getting up and stretching looks at bed blankets all strewn all over indicate he obviously didn't sleep well last night.  That was one heck of a dream.  But it seemed so freaking real!!!   No idea what caused such a messed up dream...Maybe linked to what he had for dinner.  That pizza was a late night snack maybe he should've not added all that hot sauce.  Andy makes his way to the front door and seeing the curtains are not up yet...should have gotten to that.  There stands a game warden and a sheriff.  Wondering what he may have done to warrant the visit of the local law enforcement.  Andy looks down at his clothing thanking the fact he had some clothes on.   Well might as well find out what they are needing.  

        Opening the door the men have an uncertain look to them and like a curious stare as they look at him.  "Well, hello what brings you to my door officers?"  One of the them says "Not an officer Game Warden and he is the Sheriff" pointing at the slightly older man with him.  Taking both men in the one claiming to be the game warden is dressed in green and the sheriff in that horrible brown color.  The sheriff takes the lead "May we come in and talk with you about a weird occurrence and disturbance to things last night and the odd substance in your yard."  With that statement Andy looks out past the law enforcement and see a purple like foam on his lawn and around.  And immediately looks skeptically at the folks in front of him.  And knowing his rights he steps outside with them and offers them a seat on his porch.

        The Game Warden wants to know if Andy knows anything about the purple substance and if he had anything to do with it.  Andy seems perplexed and shakes his head saying he went to bed late last night and saw nothing that could have caused this.  The officers ask him when he had gone to bed so they can get an idea of the time frame this had to have happened during.  It is at this time that Andy sees the neighbor's cat covered in the purple foam.  It seems there is a grape scent in the air.  Like grape soda.  Thinking back to the 'yeti' dream.  Claims ignorance on the whole thing.  The officers have sent a sample to the labs to be tested.  And lets him know a clean up crew will be coming in to the area to clean up.  The labs have said there seems to immediate danger to humans but it is unknown if the local plant life will be effected.  Andy bids them a farewell and thanks them for the information.

        After his uninvited guests leave he walks out seeing the neighbor's cat looking upset and unimpressed with the substance.  Andy puts his gloves on and decides he may have too much blood in his system and needs a form of blood letting.  Bathing a cat will cause him blood loss.  But the cat is definitely in distress.  Did he cause the Sasquatch to be sick?  Is that like vomit or?  Nah, that was just an odd dream right?

 

       Jerry seeing the food that was left out for him looked and smelled tasty the meat was a stick?  Since when does meat come in a stick?  It had a bit of spice to it but really good.  And in a see thru like container there was a liquid a purple color it smelled really sweet and tempting picking up the container and tipping its open end into his mouth the drink hits his mouth and tongue it feels like its alive!!!  It moves and feels fuzzy like?  He sputters a bit pulls the container away from his mouth staring at it realizing he likes the flavor but it would be better without the fizzy.   He swallows a bit more and he's getting more used to it.  So he drinks more.  All the while watching to see if the human comes back out.  He can't be fully seen by them.  He eats the food and finishes the drink.  He looks at the container seeing words on it it says 'Grape Soda'.  Well that is not grape he has eaten grapes before.  But maybe the word soda is like the word like.  Maybe Grape Like?

       A few minutes later his stomach starts to feel off.  And it starts making a horrible noise and a crippling pain strikes him and he hollers out loud.  Could the human be trying to poison his kind?  His stomach is reacting like he ate rotten food or bad water.  The noises coming from his stomach are very loud and it is causing him major discomfort.  Its like that time when he was very young and he ate those unripe apples and questionable berries.  As he tries to breathe through the discomfort a loud growl from his stomach or his mouth things are kinda blurry!  He feels a bit dizzy.  He sees a bush and decides to go behind it.  As he is on his way oops purple colored foam like stuff comes from both ends at the same time.  He tries to walk away it keeps coming out.  This is going to be a long, long night.  Human food is not good for him.  It was probably the grape like drink.  It just won't stop!!!

       After what seems like hours and hours it finally slows down.  He can feel it still on his fur he needs to remove it he sees this white four footed creature it might be a cat he picks up said creature and uses the animal to rid his fur of this foul smelling material.  Never touching grape anything again.  Curse this human for trying to poison him with such horrible yet tasty food.  Jerry looks up and sees the sky getting a tinge lighter knowing he needs to be back before full dawn he looks once more at the house here and glares at it.  

      Getting closer to his home he looks around to be sure no one is looking and reaches a huge boulder that is concealed by vines and bushes and slowly pushes the boulder away to reveal a hole and a dark passage.  He steps in and rolls the boulder back into place with a satisfied grin that he and his people are safe from those humans with their horrid food and drink.  As he walks along the passageway the light is visible.   There are trees here where he and his people live.  All around are the houses some on the ground some prefer the trees.  Its like a whole other world here.   Its always summer here they never have winter and it rains only at night from 1am to 3am.  If you could call anywhere's perfect it is this place.  Camelot was thought of based on this place.  Flowers blooming all year long, fruit growing all year.  Animals passing by of all types throughout the village.  There are about 350 of the Sasquatches.  There are many types and ages.
