In Our Island, Its "Treasure"
Far off of Dimention City, there was a gray, foggy zone filled with jagged rocks and ruined docks due to massive waves. In the middle of it all, there was Ghost City. It is an infamous place for a dumping ground but it's not always like that...
Ghost City was originally a normal city, but pranksters took it too far and ruined the city island by scaring the islanders away and cause actual ghosts to haunt there. They later abandoned their crazy "influence" and decide to work as garbage men to illegally dump their finds to the island as a source of food and clothing for the ghosts there...
Many ghosts live there because it's rent free and the fact that there's no laws to follow due to the rise of homelessness and criminal activity.
"Dad and I called this place a home and I have no complaints about it" that is what he said about how his life is like to me.
Ghost City is terrible compared to Dimention City, there were no working elevators and has a ferry ride for one or two people whenever they want to leave the island, and most of them don't have any money earned. No businesses opened, people fighting for toys or furniture, collecting cans and other plastics in hopes for earning some pocket change. Worst of all, it was ruled over by a big boss brooming away the populace like rats, with two orphaned horses as his henchmen.
This is a story of an old friend however, within the island, yokai lived there to hide away from broken laws, but one family in particular want to escape the economic civilization altogether.
As the ship leaves their trash at the island and sailed away, many raccoons and rats try to rip open for any new finds.
The big moss-colored lion, Arrowhead, takes charge and pushes away the raccoons to see better finds for his collecting.
He uses a staff wired in curtain lights and sees the important stuff inside the bags "Now let's see what those idiots threw out... Bronk! Grab that one over there"
"Yeah" Bronk agreed, Bronk is one of the horses born in the island, all animals are allowed to walk and talk, but his black horse parents were forced to abandoned him, due to panic, not knowing that their son was alive during the supposed fright. He isn't bright like all the stereotyped bullies but either way, this island is not a well educated place
Bronk dig through the bag and found a discarded tube mp3 player, "got a music player boss!"
"I have plenty of those already, you can have this one once our job is done Bronk" Arrowhead chuckled as he grabbed several bags, "Ice Salt, find any shampoo and body wash bottles, I'm due for a fragrant bath"
"Roger that Arrowhead" Ice Salt saluted as she dig through the trash. Ice Salt is a fine horse on the island, she is peach colored and try to keep her hair well brushed, but she lost her parents when she was a foal due to malnutrition and sicknesses that was caused by the island. She and Bronk act like rowdy siblings whenever their boss was gone.
Arrowhead grew bored of the slow pace and turned around to see a blue maned white horse, with a striking ivory horn piercing through the skull, and dusty wings that aren't prepped for a flight. He appeared to be peeking behind the building, waiting for the leader to get his findings and leave the dumping grounds.
"You look like you want to take me on there, well we can't stand theft around here, you know..." Arrowhead found all the good things he was looking for and they take them to city hall where his home is at.
Soon after the raccoons and rats grab all the stuff, he came out and uttered, "it's clear"
"Well done Peganyan, I was hoping those rats will never leave" Another strange male horse came out from behind the building and smiled as they dig through what's left over from the ripped open bags
All they collected was thrownout food and broken items that can easily be fixed, Peganyan grabbed parts of metal and ripped toys as well as used newspaper for their bedding. Peganyan and his father, Alinyan, were the two alicorns living on the island, all they do is hide away and protect their findings from other civilians who would steal. Peganyan was 7 years old at the time, the same age as Bronk and Ice Salt, but he isn't allowed to be friends with anyone of the community due to mistrust and scheming him into being bad, that's not part of his faith he and dad followed.
Peganyan, regardless of where his community was at, lived in a strict household. His dad wanted him or his son to be very pure in order to reenter the promise land for all the unicorn-like horses, to do that, he has to endure the harshness of reality and live in complete misery, no electricity, no friends, no separation from family members, no fresh foods, no money, no entering in the mainland, and no outside learning. Despite the struggles, he was happy for what's coming for him at the end.
"Look at that, there's Alinyan with his enslaved cult follower, Peggy the Pessimist" Some raccoons gossip to each other as they leave from them
"Bullies don't enter the promise land son, they won't call you "Peggy the Pessimist" there" Alinyan remind his son to keep following his faith
"Yes father, I know" Peganyan smiled as the gossip continued and it manifested something within his shadow, opening his yellow eyes for the first time
