Once upon a time, there were three friends who lived next door to each other. Elvin was an otter, Daisy was a bunny, and Harold was a hedgehog. Despite their differences, they became the best friends.

1

One day, while hanging out at Elvin's house, the three friends became bored. So, they decided to go to the meadow. Once there, they played all kinds of games, including hide-and-seek, tag, Simon says, and the Black queen.

While playing the Black queen, Harold never got the chance to be the Black queen and became very angry.

"Guys, I don't want to play this game anymore," Harold said.
"Why?" asked Elvin, confused.
"Because...because...I just don't! I don't want to see you guys anymore!"

Harold ran away into the dark forest at the end of the meadow, leaving Daisy and Elvin in shock. They had never fought before, so this was new to them. While they were thinking about what to do, Harold continued to run through the forest.

After a while, Harold stopped and looked around. He realized he was lost and didn't know where to go. As he walked, he thought about why he got angry in the first place. He realized it wasn't a big deal, but he made it one. And then he sat down and began to cry.
Meanwhile, Daisy and Elvin were worried sick.

"We should start looking for him!" said Daisy.
"Yes, you're right!" replied Elvin.
