Here it is.

Planet of the Furries

A story about all the random crap that happens on the PF forums and some other stuff that we made up. Compiled and edited by Nick "Midi the Squirrel" Kovacs with submissions from everyone else on Planet Furry forums. All characters used in this story are copyrighted to their original creators. For information on submitting characters/chapters or other questions, email [email protected].

CHAPTER 1

"Captain's log. Stardate: 178-34-809-its/9000. We're approaching a blue and green planet that could be capable of supporting life. We are going to land there and begin our investigation for a suitable colonization site where future generations of humanity will be able to learn from our mistakes of old and start anew on an unspoiled landscape. I am now going to awake the others and prepare for the landing."

Captain Leon "Cap'n Lol" Oliver Laws shut off the vocal recorder and left the ship's bridge. He was traveling with a team of four.

First there was Professor Zachary Abraham, a renowned biologist and computer specialist who specialized in computers and biology, as well as other biological and computer-based sciences. The others preferred to just call him Z most of the time.

Then there was the ship's engineer Joe Frost and his sister Madison. No one would have guessed it at first sight, but Madison was the team's weapon specialist, and this had nothing to do with the fact that her nickname was MAD. She got that name because she was easily annoyed by her brother's tendency to do anything to get on her nerves by any means unnecessary.

Leon entered the sleeping quarters and turned on the lights. At the same time the sleep pods commenced their waking procedures, and the rest of the team were roused from cold sleep.

"Morning, Cap'n," John yawned, "Land ho yet?"

"As a matter of fact, yes," said Leon, "We've got a promising looking planet ahead of us. How's about
we get this bird on the ground?"

They all went back to the bridge and began the landing protocols. The ship glided down through the atmosphere, burning hot particles glancing of the shields, and extended the landing gear. Then the retro rockets fired to hold the ship steady, and it landed softly on the hard rock below.

"Wow," said Madison, "Congratulations Cap'n, you actually landed without--"

CRASH!

The rock below them suddenly began cracking apart and fell out from under them. The ship plummeted down the side of the mountain; the landing gear snapped off and flew away as twisted bars of metal. Then they were sliding down until they smashed into a boulder and stopped.

"Everyone sound off!" Leon commanded.

"I'm all here," said Z.

"Check," said Joe.

"Bruised but alright," said Madison.

"Okay," said Leon, "Atmospheric readouts show the air is breathable. Let's check out the area real quick and then report back here at sundown. Get your gear, and if you see any natives, do not approach them until we can confirm they're friendly. Got it?"

"Roger," the team all said.

"Good. Move out."

They got together some rations, re-breathers, side arms, homing beacons, and a few other tools, and then set out to explore this new wild world they'd landed on. They had no idea fate was laughing its ass off as it prepared to put them all through the most insane adventure they'd ever had...

CHAPTER 2
[By Midi]

The team split into two pairs and set off in opposite directions. They chose to do it like this because they'd be able to cover more ground without risking anybody going off by themselves. The teams were chosen in a way that their skills would be most balanced; Maddie went with Dr. Z and Joe went with Leon.

"It's interesting how these plants are completely identical to the ones back home," said Z, "I wonder if the wildlife here is the same as well?"

"I'm wondering why we haven't seen any wildlife yet," said Maddie uncomfortably, "This is a pretty dense forest; you'd think it would be teeming with life, but there's not a creature around."

"It's probably because of our presence," Z considered, "Crashing the ship like that most likely spooked all the animals around here into hiding. But I'm sure we'll run into something soon."

Oh, they'll run into something soon, alright!

"I guess so," said Maddie, "But still, this silence is really eerie."

They continued on until high noon when they decided they would take a break and then head back to make their report. Z examined some of the moss and ferns growing around the area while Maddie did a supply check.

Suddenly there was a rustle behind them. They stood up and wheeled around as the sounds grew louder.

Something was coming their way.

They were so not prepared for what came out of the brush. The creature that emmerged appeared to be a grey wolf, but it stood up on two legs, had a very humanoid figure save for the legs, hands, head and tail, and even wore human-like clothes, yet it was certainly not human.

The wolf didn't seem angry or afraid of them, but rather more surprised. By surprised I mean "HOLY CRAP! WHAT IS THAT THING?"

Z figured the best way to handle this was with diplomacy. "Hello," he said, "My name is Dr. Zachary Abraham, and this is Madison Frost. We're humans from a planet called Earth. Can you help us?"

The wolf's expression changed to one of grave horror. He turned his head to the side a bit, not taking his eyes off the humans, and called out nervously, "To-o-o-ora-a-a?"

Some rustling later, and another wolf emerged from the woods. This one was a lighter grey than the first one, and had little speckles in his fur that changed color and moved when the sunlight hit him at different angles. "Kasyl?" he asked, "What's the matter?"

The wolf called Kasyl pointed weakly. "H-humans!"

Tora crossed his arms. "Oh shite. There goes the planet.”

****

Leon and Joe were having a similar, but not quite the same, experience as Maddie and Z were.

They hadn't been traveling long when they spotted a very large creature ahead of them.

"What is that thing?" Joe asked in a hush tone, "It looks like a bear with calico fur!"

"Must be a native," said Leon.

"What makes you say that?" aske Joe.

"Since when to wild animals wear baggy shorts?" Leon pointed out.

"Oh, hey! You're right!" said Joe in excitement, "He looks just like Smokey the Bear, only not qiute so smokey!" He wasn't paying attention to his footing, and accidentally snapped a twig under his foot. Although when was the last time a twig screamed bloody murder when it got stepped on?

The bear heard the twig screams, and looked around to see who was nearby. He didn't spot Leon and Joe, but he obviously knew something was up, and started off in the direction the sounds came from to see if anyone needed help.

Of course Leon and Joe didn't know his intentions; they figured he was protecting his territory. They prepared for a confrontation, when suddenly the bear was gone. He'd taken a side track, and lost himself from their sight.

The two explorers drew closer, facing back to back to make sure they weren't snuck up on.

But then the bear showed up from the side and shouted, "HI THERE!"

Leon and Joe turned, drew their guns, and took aim.

The bear immediately threw his arms in the air, cuz he's a true player! "Wait! Please don't shoot! I didn't mean to scare you!"

Leon lowered his weapon. "You can speak our language?"

"Of course I can," said the bear, "I'm speaking plain furry just like you are."

"What?" said Joe, "We're speaking English."

The bear put his arms down. "English? Wait, then that means you're humans, right?"

They nodded.

The bear pondered a bit, and then pounce-hugged them. "Oh, this is great! Wait till I tell the others, I found humans! This is so epic!"

Leon and Joe made choking noises.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" the bear stood up, "I should have introduced myself. I'm Newmanman."

"Newmanman?" said Joe, "Well I'm Joejoe, and this is Leonon."

Newmanman scowled. "You're making fun of me, aren't you?"

Leon stepped between them. "I'm sorry, please ignore him. He's an idiot sometimes."

"Oh," said Newmanman, "Well, I know plenty of idiots. I'm friends with one as well. Oh, by the way, where are you guys staying?"

"We have a ship up that way," said Leon, "It's a bit dinged up, but it'll last until I can get it fixed."

Newmanman shook his head. "Not good. The woods aren’t safe out here. Why there could be lions, or wolves, or even bears!" He took Leon and Joe by their hands. "Nope, you're coming back to town with me. You'll be safer there than in the wild."

Leon and Joe had no idea what was happening, nor had they any idea that Maddie and Z were not going through the same thing.

Chapter two's up now! Also to anyone who joined in, I remind you that you can submit your own chapters as well. Since the story hasn't really picked up yet, I suggest character origin chapters.
