Hand of Nature: Water (7svendye)

Did you know that the word ‘tsunami,’ which is now being used worldwide, is a Japanese word? This is indicative of the extent to which Japan has been subject to frequent tsunami disasters in the past: Junichiro Koizumi


When it comes to the city of luck-fish CA, being near a large body of water was both a blessing and a curse, and yes the city was protected by a Seawall, which gave the people some form of reassurance, however, The Committee of Public Safety were concerned on how fast the wall was made. The Mayor would reassure the public that the wall would protect their city. On November 3, 20XX, Luck-fish would have a category 6 earthquake.


On the clear sand of Luck-fish, the people were packing up their beach essentials as the clouds were beginning to roll in. On one side of the beach away from human eyes, a small herd of bowl fluffies were enjoying the ocean, not caring for the clouds that were rolling in. In the sands, the herd would play huggy tag or simply enjoy a nice nap while, the fluffies in the water were enjoying the calm swaying of the sea waves. A sea green fluffy bowl mama was enjoying the swaying of the waves with her special friend a red and blue fluffy stallion who was not too far from her and on her belly were her four talkie babbhes, one the same color as her and with a pointy horn on his little head who was looking out to the beautiful sea, a pink wingy filly babbhe who was drinking from her milky place, a dark blue foal who was enjoying the ride and was napping on his mama’s fluff, and lastly, a light grey filly who was dancing for her mama.

“babbhie mak bestest dance fo mama”

“heeheee, babbhie mak bestest dancie”

The Stallion though was beginning to worry as the clouds were coming in and when they came that meant the sky wawa would come and fill their bowls with wawa and cause them to sink.

“special fweind nee hea back to hewd, nu wike scway cwouds”

The foals all look towards their father with sad looks as their father as they did not want to go back yet.

“pwease daddhie babbhies wan stay in wawa”

“wan pway”

“pwease daddhie”

“wan stay”

The Stallion looked at his children and the big eyes they were giving him. He could only give a big sigh and smile at his babbhies.

“otay just a wittle moe”

“Special fweind am bestest daddhie”

as the family continued to enjoy the calmness of the sea, the peace would not last as they felt their entire world shake.

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Bothe the bowl fluffies in the water and the beach felt everything shake. The fluffies on the beach were freaking out, some would duck and cover using their bowl bodies to protect their young, and some would run in fear leaving families or their newborns. The bowl fluffies in the ocean did not fair any better, some bowl mamas were also freaking out as some would knock over their babbhies in fear, some would land on their backs and float but some would land face first in the wawa.

“MAMA HEWP BESTEST BABBHIE!!!”

“NU BABBHIE!!!”

A bowl mama had knocked off one of her favorite foals, as the babbhie panicked and began to sink into the water.

“NUUUUUUU BESTEST BABBHIE!”

The mare could only cry for the lose of her favorite, ignoring the still-living foals on her gut.

“mama nu cwy, wook am dancie babbhie”

A green-colored foal with a white mane tried to cheer up his mama. His reward for tying to cheer up his mama was a hoof to the face as he was now knocked over face-first into the water.

“SHUT UP DUMMY BABBHIE, MAMA WAN BESTSTEST BABBHIE HUUUHUUU”

Before she could strike more the the Shake became greater, as it launched the mare and her foals into the air and came crashing back down with the mama sinking into the Sea dragging down her last foals.

“Nu wook babbhies holwd on to mama”

The shake continued.

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Until it finally stopped.
.
.
.
.
Silence.

The scary shaking had stopped, as the fluffies began to calm down and comfort.

“huuuuhuuuu, special fweind an babbhies am fowebew sweepies, nu am daddhie nu mow”

Many of the bowl fluffies began to cry for the loss of a mate or young. it then began to rain.

“NU!!! pwease sky wawa nu fwall am still in wawa”

The fluffies began to shake in fear of the rain coming down. It is then the Sea green mama saw the scariest thing ever. They began to drift away from the rest of their herd from the beach.

“Fweinds nu weave fuwffys nee hewp!!!”

They as they began to drift, as things got smaller and smaller.

“Biwdy fweind?”

The bowl fluffies saw that a bird had passed them by as they were very close to the creature. Everything began to slow down as the rain got worse and they got higher and higher. Then Like lightning, they were heading back to the beach at incredible speed.

“wook fweinds am coming back”

The beach fluffies were happy to get the rest of their herd back. That happiness then turned to fear as they saw that they were being carried back by a wawa monster.

“WUN!!!”

The beach bowl fluffies tried to flee from the beach, but their stubby legs could not save them.

CRASH

they are then swept by the sea heading toward the sea wall, some fluffies are crushed by the pressure of the water and the wall. The committee would be proven right as two waves repeatedly hit the wall, breaking it as a tsunami would hit the city of luck-fish.


Elsewhere

“BIGEST POOOPIES!!!”

an apple-green color mare with a strawberry mane was giving birth in a random alleyway. This is Daisey a former show fluff who was kicked out by her human mama after she was told no to having foals. She had been on the street for a week and survived on garbage food that people did not bother to finish or had stolen from other feral fluffies. The stallion who knocked her up had gotten run over by a pizza boy after looking for food in a nearby alleyway leaving her as a single mother.

“huhu, am mama now?”

Daisey had three pretty color babbhis and to her dismay an ugly poopie babbhie. their was one who was the same color as her green-apple and had wings like his daddhie, one that was white as snow and had a horn, the last pretty babbhie was purple with no extra appendages. She the began to groom her pretty babbhies.

“mama wub babbhies, babbhies wu-”

PEEEEP CHEEP PEEP CHEEP CHEEP

The mare then began to frown upon the crying of her poopie babbhie. There was nothing really special about it, it was an ordinary brown newborn already forgotten by his mama simply for being born with brown fluff.

“dummy poopie babbhie am tu woud”

Walking over to her forgotten new born when the grabs it roughly by the scruff of its neck not caring if she hurt it or not.

SCEEEEEEEEEEEE

The little brown foal cried in pain at how it was being carried. The foal could only cry and chirp for a mama who did not love her. She is then dropped into the poop pile that had been made on a piece of plywood.

“now shud up dummy poopie babbhie nee gib milkies to PWETTY babbhies nu poopie babbhie”

The newborn foal continued to cry and chirp for her mama who was now walking away from her.

“Mama wub babbhies, babbhies wub mama, dwink wots of milkies gow up big an stwong”

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

The world began to shake, as the home that Dasiey made with her special friend began to jiggle.

“SCEEEEEEEE, MUNSTEW NU NUM BESTSEST MAMA”

Dropping the white foal that she was grooming, the little foal landed on his rump and began to chirp and peep in pain.

SCEEEEEE PEEP CHEEEP CHEEP CHEEP

The others soon joined in as the world was shaking. The building next to their nest also shook. The family could only cry and shit in fear as the rumbling continued.

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

RUMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

As soon as it had started it began to stop and soon rain followed. The foals continued to cry and chirp for their mama, and the rain hit their small fluff bodies.

“babbhies!!! mama come, am hewe babbhies nu saddie wawas!!!”

Going back to her foals Dasiey remembered her duties and tried her best to comfort her foals. As she was comforting her foals she then noticed all the noise that was happening outside the alleyway, as she saw Vroom Montser and hoomens run away.

“RUN MAN GET FUCK OUT HERE!”

“OUT OF THE WAY”

“MOMMY!!!”

“HOLD ON SWEET HEART!!!”

After comforting her foals, she then put them on her back and went to look what the hoomens and monster were running away from. Looking down the street where they were running towards shen then looked back and were they were coming from.

“wha…!!!”

She then wished she didn’t look back because heading her way was a big monster made of wawa as it swallowed the vroom monsters, hoomens, and other fluffies heading her way. Not knowing what to do, Dasiey then throws her young off her back and towards the wawa monster hoping that by giving them she would not turn into nummies.

PEEEP CHEEEP CHEEEP SCEEEEEEE

The foals could only scream and cry as their mama fled from the flood

“MAMA, SABE DAS-CRASSSSSSSH

Daisey and her foals are then swept into the flood as they are hit with debris and drowned from nature’s wrath.

PEEEP PEEP PEEP CHEEEP HUUUHUUU

Either by luck or nature showing mercy the brown poopie foal had survived as the poopie had been given a makeshift boat thanks to the plywood. The Foals cried as she was being rocked by the waves and pelt by the harsh rain. The waves pushed the little foal forward into the flooded city.


The mama and daddhie bowls stuck together by using their mate’s tail to ensure that they would not get swept away. one minute they had been at the beach enjoying the sand and the Wawa, now they back in the hoomen land as they saw the glass housies and the vroom monster that were now bein carried by the running water.

“special fweind nu wet babbhies fllaw in da wa-”

The bowl stallion could not finish is sentence as he had been hit with something. Looking back at the bowl mama saw that another fluffy had hit her special friend. It looked like he was now trying to stay afloat by using her mate as a means to avoid drowning.

“DUMMY YU AM PAW UB BESTEST SMATY HEWD NOW SABE SMAT-”

SNAP

SLASH

The mama hears a loud snap, as she see’s a black line strike the middle of the other fluffy and her special friend thinky place.

“why…smwaty nu fee weegies?”

The top part of the smarty falls into the wawas along with part of her special friend’s head. Blood spews from the severed areas as the water around them begins to be dyed in red.

“DADDHIE!!!”

One of her foals screamed for her father as he now began to sink in the water along with half of the smarty.

“BABBHIES STAY WID MAMA!!!”

The mare could only cry and scream and her children as she did not want to lose them to. She then saw the rest of her herd suffer an almost similar fate as her mate.

“HEWP!!! HEWP FUWFFY NU WAN-”

The Bowl fluffy screaming for help is dragged down into the water by a falling street light. Kick and gasping for air the little bowl fluffy dies in fear as the light begins to leave his eyes.

“NU WAN!!! NU WAN SCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

a bowl soon Mama is then hit by a down power line as over 1,000 volts of electricity course through her little body. She then explodes into a pile of guts and unborn foals. Her mate could only watch as she goes boom.

“NU!!! SPECIAL FEWIND STAB SCEEEEEEEEEEEE”

The Stallion does not fair any better as he is then caught by some floating barbwire. He and the wire are then caught by a flagpole. The fluffy could only kick and scream in pain and the waters try to drag him away, only causing it to dig deeper into his flesh.

“MAMA, PEEP SABE BABBHIE, CHEEP, NU WAN DIE!!!”

The waters got worse as the herd and either dragged into the flooding waters or hit by floating debris. A large truck then passes them by as some bowl fluffies and regular fluffies who tried hanging on to some lose parts, then crash into a passing gas station.

BOOOOOOOOOM

the truck and the fluffies nearby are caught in explosion. Flaming debris and fluffy parts scatter over the waters. A flaming fluffy leg lands in the bowl of a red bowl fluffy as he is then ignited into flames.

SCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BUWNIES HUWTIES!!!”

Seeing the destruction and misery the Sea Green Bowl mama tries to sing to her babbhies.

“MAMA…WUB…BABBHIES, BABBHIES WUB MA-”

The bowl mare strikes some form of debris as she and her young are flung into the air. The serving family cries and shit upon flying with one foal saying “AM NOT WINNGIE BABBHIE!!!”. They then crash back into the water, the foals by luck land on their back, but their mama lands on her front. Trying to stay afloat and reach her young, the mama sticks a hoof out trying to reach her young.

“BABBHIES MAK SWIMMYS TO MA-CHOMP SCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The Bowl mama is then caught in the jaws of a gator that had escaped from a nearby zoo. The Gator thrashes about with the fluffy bowl mama in its jaws, limbs fly off, as the Gator snaps the mare in two. The Foals could only watch in terror of what had happened to their mama.

“MAMA!!!”

The four foals are then carried by the harsh waves, as they are pelted by rain and junk. The pressure was so great that the little grey fluff was thrown from the waters at great speed.

"SCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

STAB

“guuuuushgh…guurgle…ma…ma…”

The Foal had been launched from the waters into a pair of dear antlers that were used for truck decorations.

“HEWP AM ONWY WITTLE BA-CHOMP

The same gator that ate their mama had come back for seconds as the gator had made lunch meat out of the pink filly. The two serving foals cried and scream as the waves got worse. By luck, the dark blue fluff had landed on a log that a human was using as a makeshift raft.

“NICE MSISTAW HEWP, AM ONWY WITTLE BABBHIE”

The man then gave the foal a deadpan look. Reaching out to the foal the man flicked the snout of the bowl babbhie.

“OWIE!!!”

The foal is then crushed by a falling traffic light.

“Sorry only room for one shit rat”


The unicorn Sea green Bowl foal was now the only one left as he cried and begged for his family to come back.

“NU HABB FAMIWY NU MOE, WAN HUGGIES, WAN MILKIES, NU WAN FOWEBEW SWEEPIES!!!”

It is then he feels himself launched from the water.

SCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

He then closed his eyes as he waited for his end.

THUMP

He landed on his belly as he hit something hard. He still had his eyes closed not wanting to see what he is on or why he is not dead.

PEEP CHEEP CHEEEP

Hearing chirping and peeping, the Bowl foal saw another fluffy this one being a chirpy babbhie as it had its eyes closed.

“ne…new fweind…?”

Scooting his little body the bowl fluff held onto the little chirpy foal as their makeshift raft was being pushed into the flooded city.


6 Hours later

Luck-Fish had faced a major tsunami and although he had finally stopped it had caused major damage to this costal city.

VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

A brightly colored rescue raft was making its way through the flooded city, the passengers being a black and white husky wearing a raincoat, a white fluffy mare with a blonde afro, wearing a special raincoat that protected her and her babbhies, a little girl of 10 with brown hair and pigtails wearing a raincoat with dogs on it, and a man who looked about reaching his thirties wearing a blue hat and wearing a black raincoat.

“look at this, I told that bas-, I mean the jerk that the seawall was shotty”

“I know Dad, you been saying that for hours now, right pompom?”

“daddhie nu hab to keep saying, Mr. mawe am dummy”

The man could only sigh as looked for people to help. They had gotten through the worst of it and now it was time to help where help was needed. The young girl and fluffy looked out in the devastated city, they would occasionally find a person face down in the water, as their father had to leave a black tag upon discovery. They also saw a lot of drowned fluffies.

“Yesh, with this amount of fluffies they gonna keep someplace flooded”

The man remembered an event in Wilmington where they had a flash flood and some areas of the county remained flooded due to the corpse. there was not a doubt in his mind the same thing was gonna happen to fish-luck. so caught in his thoughts the man would not notice his dog Bruno and Pompoms ears perk up.

peep cheep peep

Pompom then looks around upon hears chirps and peeps. At first, she thought it was her own young, but looking back she saw their little heads sticking out of her special fluffCare Raincoat made for mamas. Running to her daddhie shen then puts her hoof on his leg.

'Daddhie pweasse stop boat, pompom herb som ting"

BARK BARK

Looking at the fluffy and his dog the man stops the raft and turns the engine off.

peep cheep peep

“pwasse nu mak chippy, babbhie…”

Looking around the group realised it sounded close. The young girl and man look around as the dog also begins to sniff the air. Pompom knew what those noises were along with the smell.

“Babbhies?”

Looking around she wondered how the little babbhies did not drown. She smelled the air and realized they were very close. Shen then looks down and sees the most shocking sight to a fluffy. A sea green foal laying on its back as it floated on the water and laying on its side was a brown chrippy babbhie. The sea green foal seemed sacred as he stared up at the unknown fluffy.

“pwease…hewp…”

“MAMA OBEW HEWE DEW AM WITTLE BABBHIES!”

The Little girl looked over Pompom and was surprised as well. Reaching into the water she grabbed the pair. At first, the Chirppy struggled as it kicked its little legs and chirped like crazy, but the calmed down as the little girl rubbed its belly with her thumb, the foal on instinct hugged her fingers and began to suckle hoping to get some milk. The Bowl foal at first braced itself but found comfort in the gentile touch of the girl. The girl turned to her father hoping he could help. seeing the girl, the father instructed ger to hand them to her. She handed the brown foal first as it looked like a newborn.

“little fella looks ok, but judging by the way he sucking my thumb poor thing must be hungry, Pompom?”

“Otay daddhie”

The Mare gently woke up her other young and first, they seemed upset at waking up, but they understood what their mama had to do. Three foals a yellow unicorn, an aquamarine alicorn, and lastly a chunky earth babby blue foal left her back as they went to go cuddle Bruno. Pompom sat up and let the little chirpy feed from her milky place. Upon the smell of milk, the little chirpy scooted herself to Pompom and drank as much milk as she could and began to cry upon being fed.

“it am otay now wittle babbhie dwink wots of milkies”

The girl then handed the sea-green foal. At first, the foal was scared that he was gonna get hurties but realized the man was being gentle with him. The man turned the foal over looking at his back and flenched, the foal had all kinds of cuts and bruises on its back. opening his medical kit the man pulled out some ointments and disinfected.

SCEEE HUWTIES, BABBHIE AM SOWWY!!!”

“SHHH, I know it hurts little guy, but you need this, so it doesn’t get worse”

After applying the needed care to the foal, he then put a bandage on his back. Handing the bowl fluff to Pompom to receive some loving care as he restarted the engine.

“Nu make saddie wawas nu moe babbhie scway times am obew now”

The raft then sped off as it continued with its search as the sun began to shine.


The City of Fish Luck had suffered a category six earthquake today, which in turn caused a massive tsunami. The Seawall that was meant to keep the damage to a minimum was discovered to have faulty materials were cheap imitations and workers rushed construction under the order of Mayor Brooks. Police will continue with this investigation. So far the Casulity rate is in the hundreds along with another hundred unaccounted for. Some areas remain flooded due to the remains of feral fluffies as workers try to clear the areas of the remains to unflood the sections of the city.

Luck-Fish is a stupid name for even a fictional town but that aside it was an enjoyable story. You characterize fluffies well so that even those with small parts still have a decent chunk of personality. The encroaching disaster (punctuated by the rumbles) is also pretty effective as the reader knows what is coming but the fluffies have no clue what to do, giving a sense of dread.

God damn, that was brutal. I sort of thought that the human casualties would have been glossed over, but nope. Several hundred.

Also my dumb brain got the earthquake strength system confused. I thought “I don’t think a Category 6 earthquake is possible, it only goes up to Category 5” before I remembered that I was thinking of the hurricane strength system. The strongest earthquake ever recorded was 9.5 on the Richter scale, but 6 is still nasty.

Also, random gator out of nowhere. Wasn’t expecting that :joy:

If you ever did a volcano story, I’m curious about what you’d call it considering that the name Hand of Nature: Fire was already used. Hand of Nature: Ash? Hand of Nature: Earth? Lava?

One of these days I’ll do a volcano story i’ll actually call it krakatoa

I feel like earth would be more appropriate for something earthquake based or maybe a landslide/avalanche of some kind.

Also I’m not sure if we should be concerned the gator felt that being in the middle of a Tsunami was the best time to start feeding, you’d think it’d be trying to find its own shelter in the worst case scenario that it got caught up in this.

Well, I needed a scientific method on why this tsunami happened and my best method was Earthquake

Also the gator was for shock value, you can thank the movie crawl for that

Oh I’m not blaming you in the slightest on that front, the amount of causes for a tsunami in the first place are on the small side, though admittedly they and earthquakes basically go hand and hand depending on the location.
