Chapter #1: Helping an elephant 

Somewhere in the Asian jungle, a young man that is actually a Mouse-Faunus was able to gather some fruits, you might be asking the question is why is he alone without any family member..

The answer is this young male Mouse-Faunus is an orphan that didn't know anything about his past or who he was... So he decided to offend for himself while also learning many combat trainings such as stealth art taking on martial arts while also hunting in the wilderness for fruits and meat. 

And I forgot to mention young male Mouse-Faunus name is Lil Lupin It was actually been surviving at the age of 5.

Lil Lupin: (to himself) another lonely day being in this jungle while also not finding any elephants...

Lil Lupin always liked that gentle shines known as elephants that they were his favorite animals. However, whenever gets close to one elephant rather from Africa or Asia let's just say elephants aren't fond when they see mice. They get scared easily.

Lil Lupin: (to himself) dang it all. Why do I have to be a Mouse-Faunus, So I can't be around any elephants!?

Only Lil Lupin thought to be interrupted by crying of pain and in a trumpet of pain which sounded like an elephant trumpeting.

Lil Lupin: is that elephant in trouble..!?

Lil Lupin running as fast as he can seeing that it was an elephant. However, it was a female and she was somewhat from the circus but you could tell that she left from circus. She had light gray skin and was wearing and had a bow on her forehead while also had a pink rug with yellow trimmings on her back, Lil Lupin noticed on one of the elephants front legs was a bear trap. 

Lil Lupin: I should I help or should I not help her..??

Lil Lupin remember helping many of the other elephants that were in danger. However, he didn't receive the pleasant kind only for them to run away or other elephants throwing stuff at him that could have caused to get hurt, Lil Lupin decided to do the right thing to help this female Asian elephant living the bear trap from her when she was able to do. 

And the big circus elephant looked down at her savior was scared and trumpeted in fear standing on her hind legs. 

Nellie the big female circus female Asian Elephant: aaaahh!! A Mouse!!

As Nellie the big female circus female Asian Elephant grabbing a nearby rock with her Elephant trunk trying to smash Lil Lupin, only for him to dodge. Lil Lupin having his mouse ears down. Looking down with sadness. Walked away while also throwing the bear trap in front of Nellie the big female circus female Asian Elephant.

Lil Lupin: (sighs) I guess I'm not welcome here. Maybe I should just leave her to her fate.

As Lil Lupin continued walking depressingly feeling alone and dejected with his mouse ears down, Nellie the big female circus female Asian Elephant was shouting to him. 

Nellie: (softly) Wait... Please don't go!!

Lil Lupin was still walking away from Nellie the big female circus female Asian Elephant, his were still mouse ears down not even hearing the shouts coming from the big female circus Asian elephant.

Lil Lupin: (thinking) I don't understand... Why can't they just accept me for who I am? I'm not asking for much, just to be friends with elephants. Why is it so hard?

Feeling dejected and alone, Lil Lupin continued to walk away, his heart heavy with the weight of rejection. As he turned a corner, he stumbled upon a small stream, as Lil Lupin notice an green apple on one of the tree branches as he carefully climbed one of the branches. He was able to pluck green apple from the branches only for the branches to crack for him to fall on the ground with a hard thud.

A few seconds passed by, when Lil Lupin Open the one of his eyes. He was surprised to see that he was on the ground still up in the air which confused him. However, he looked and relenting was the opposite everything's upside down. However, something realized something wrapped around his tail from preventing him not to fall on the ground. She looked up to see and elephant's trunk that was holding up in the air by his Mouse tail, which he was shocked and caught off guard to see the same elephant that he saved and now she was helping him.

Lil Lupin: (In disbelief) You're... helping me?

Nellie's gentle eyes locked onto Lupin's, a mixture of concern and relief washing over her features.

Nellie: (nodding) Of course! You saved me from that trap. I couldn't just let you fall. 

Lil Lupin: (blinking) But you were scared of me! 

Nellie: (sighing) I was. I thought you were just a little mouse. But now I see you're more than that. You're brave and kind-hearted. 

Lil Lupin felt warmth spread through him. It was a feeling he had longed for—acceptance. He looked up at Nellie as she carefully lowered him back to the ground, her trunk releasing its hold on his tail.

Lil Lupin: (smiling shyly) Thank you, Nellie. I...I really didn't expect that. 

Nellie: (smiling back) You deserved help, Little Mouse. Now, let's get you back on your feet. 

Lupin brushed off the dust from his shirts and pants and looking directly up at the big female Asian elephant that was able to help it surprise him to the core of his heart.

Lil Lupin: (looking up at her) So, what's your name?

Nellie: (proudly) I'm Nellie! I used to be part of a circus, which I decide to leave accordingly to find my family or he can say my elephant herd somewhere in the jungle..

Lil Lupin: (curiously) Your herd? Do you think they're nearby?

Nellie: (sighing wistfully) I hope so. I've been searching for them for a while now, but I've only found myself wandering. Maybe together we can find them!

Lil Lupin: (enthusiastically) Yes! Let's search together! I want to help you!

Nellie: (smiling) That would mean a lot to me, Lupin. Friends help each other, after all.

With that, Nellie and Lupin set off deeper into the jungle, the air thick with the scents of blooming flowers and lush greenery. As they walked side by side, Lupin felt a sense of excitement and purpose swell within him. This jungle, once a place of solitude, now felt vibrant and full of possibilities.

Lil Lupin: (pointing) Look at that tree! It's so big! I bet it has a great view from the top!

Nellie: (chuckling) You're right! Want to climb it and see?

Lil Lupin: (grinning) I'd love to!

He dashed toward the massive tree, his small frame darting with agility. Using his enhanced speed, Lupin quickly scrambled up the trunk, finding footholds with ease. From his vantage point high in the branches, he could see far beyond the jungle—the sprawling canopy, the shimmering river, and even the distant mountains.

Lil Lupin: (calling down) You should come up too, Nellie! The view is amazing!

Nellie: (looking up) I'd love to, but I think I'll stay down here! I'm a bit too big for those branches!

Lupin laughed, appreciating the difference between them. It was a beautiful day, and he felt a sense of freedom he hadn't known before. 

As he surveyed the landscape, he noticed something in the distance—a group of elephants moving through the jungle. His heart raced.

Lil Lupin: (excitedly) Nellie! I think I see your herd!

Nellie's ears perked up, and her eyes widened with hope.

Nellie: (shouting) Where? Which way?

Lil Lupin: (pointing) Over by the river! They're moving toward those trees!

Without hesitation, Nellie began to trot toward the direction Lupin indicated. He quickly climbed down and jumped onto her back as they hurried through the underbrush, their hearts pounding with anticipation.
