How he got to the orphanage wrote:Pluto sat quietly under the bridge. Snow
danced toward the ground around him, beginning
to pile up. Red and green lights were strewn
around shops, and on tall, bushy trees, shimmering
in the distance. He curled up in a tight ball. His
fur may have offered some protection from the
cold, but no one could be warm, out on the street,
in the dark, lonely cold. The coldest
part of him was his heart. He had been alone
for so long. He had known the pain of
abandonment. It wasn't hard for him to believe
that whoever was in charge of miracles, seemed
to have forgotten him.
He barely moved as the woman appeared, carrying
a large cardboard box, and scanning her snowy
surroundings. Each breath Pluto drew was shaky,
casting a cloud of fog into the still air. The woman
approached him with a warm smile, and before he
could stand to run she had gently placed him in the
box.
Pluto looked around him. He had been set on a soft,
pink blanket, which seemingly emanated warmth.
The woman looked down at him. She had blonde
hair which fell over her shoulders, and green eyes.
Everything about her seemed comforting. As she
walked, she spoke to him in a soft voice.
"We find too many of you down here... What a
lucky guy. I guess Christmas miracles really do
exist, at least for you." She said, as they were
coming up on a small building. It's windows
glowed with a warm yellow light, and they were
hit with a blast of warmth as they entered. Many
young beans scittered across the floor, laughing,
and a few other men and women sat on a couch
in front of the fireplace, sipping mugs of hot
chocolate. The blonde haired woman set down the
box, and Pluto peered inquisitively over the edge.
After a few moments, he jumped out of the box,
and gravitated towards the flickering fireplace. He
stretched out in front of it, rolling on his side. So
that's what this day was- ...Christmas.

Pluto's beginnings wrote:Pluto tugged at the collar which was
clipped around his neck, then glanced to
the ring on his tail. Why had he been
given these items? He glanced around. It
was dark, and some snow littered the
ground. He crawled out of the box which
he had been in, shook the last bit of
eggshell from his head, And set off in a
random direction. Little did he know, he
would be doing that a lot in his future.
Blazing a new path, alone.

Pluto is a young bean. He is quiet, and reserved, and while he may seem antisocial or shy, he just tends to keep to himself. He is quite attached to the orphanage where he grew up, so he had a very hard time trying to find an owner. He's seen most of his friends leave, and decided that he should move on. His only memory of his parents was when they left him. The only thing that he had was his necklace. He doesn't know if it's supposed to symbolize anything, but he would never part with it, protesting when anyone tries to remove it. He is polite and obedient, and even though he wishes he was tougher, he's quite a pushover. Pluto is very independent, mostly because he took care of himself for a portion of his life. It's quite a task to get him to trust you but once you do he loves to spend time with you. He loves cuddling on anyone's lap, and even though he's independent, he loves to be spoiled. He's one of the oldest beans in the orphanage, but he's still a kid at heart. Pluto is an avid artist, and instead of actually creating any recognizable shapes, he almost always uses blue paint and scatters it randomly across the canvas. He particularly likes making long streaks of color, or textures.
Relationship with Aria;;
Pluto's best friend is Aria. Although she's slightly too energetic for him to keep up with, he's just as, if not more, curious than her. Pluto loves how creative Aria is, and shows her his paintings a lot. He doesn't mind how much she talks, and although he's not very talkative himself, he's a great listener and nearly never ignores her, even when she's on a tangent. If they're doing something potentially dangerous, Aria will always be the one to drag him along with her. Pluto ignores insults, they just bounce off of him like he's made of steel. But he knows his friend isn't the same way. He's always there to make her feel better when she needs it, sometimes more in just being there than with comforting words.
Pluto met Aria while he was outside one day, and ever since she'd come to visit him at the orphanage. As far as Pluto's concerned, they'll never part.

A few dozen miles away from a once busy and bustling city, there was a large metal power plant. Radioactive chemicals roamed freely in the surrounding area and smoke filled the air. This was a very hazardous nuclear power plant, and it was where Estrella grew up. Her parents were forced to flee from the comfort of their old home due to a terrorist attack, and this area was the only one away from the humans they had grown to fear. Estrella still remembers the horrible smell of the toxic waste and how hard it was to see through the smoke. Huge tower-like structures were belching gases, and there was little vegetation for miles around. Estrella and her parents had to hide from the few workers and eventually began to eat the scraps of food they left behind. Some of the food had picked up toxins from the machines and Estrella's parents became very sick. Their fur and nails slowly changed colors, going from their original to a neon blue, and from that neon to a dead green. The young bean had sat and watched tearfully as her parents slowly passed away, having to suffer from the effects of the poisons. It was then when she made her decision. At that point she didn't care what would happen; she wanted to avenge her parents. From sunrise to sunset she carefully constructed her plan.
Once the moon rose above the horizon and cast its shimmering light across the visible land she got to work. Sneaking in through an unlocked door in the side of the control building (the workers were rather lazy and seemed to always be drunk) she hid under a weak wooden desk. It was falling apart and she could hear one of the legs creak every so often. Looking around, Estrella checked for any sign of life in the room. Seeing none, not even the leaf of a plant, she slowly edged her way over to a rusted metal grate in the floor. By looking at it she could tell it had been there for quite a while, and it reeked of beer. Estrella cautiously put her paw on it, but she wasn't careful enough. With a loud, blood chilling shriek she fell in. Her eyes were full of signs of loss as they opened wide. Down into the shadows the young bean fell, coughing and sputtering wildly. Dust went flying as she hit a hard, cold surface. Estrella tried to get up but she quickly slipped and fell, hurting one of her ankles. The floor underneath her was smooth and unyielding, making it hard to get a grip with her claws. As she was holding her ankle in pain she felt herself sliding backwards, causing her to jump and try to run in the other direction in a panic. With nothing to grab onto and the slope beginning to turn even faster, Estrella curled up and whimpered a quick and sorrowful, "Goodbye, world," before falling into a smoke filled abyss. The gas around her seemed to burn into her lightly colored fur before making her gasp in pain when it suddenly touched her skin. Her eyes were closed, but it didn't make that much of a difference on the positive side of things; all she would have seen would have been a very dark grey and her eyes would have burned by the gas' cruel touch. Some of her fur began to darken and there were strands of neon blue that decorated it. Suddenly time seemed to stop, for the gases around her overheated and soon the power plant was up in flames (she later learned that some of the fur from her parents' bodies got caught on something in the cooling system).
The wooden furniture burned bright reds and blues and the metals practically turned as red as a tomato. Estrella heard the loud bang of an explosion before she went flying into the air. What she saw made her heart break and her mind forever paranoid; everything in sight was either in flames or was a bright red, and the bodies of dead humans who had tried to put out the fire littered the ground. All sense was lost to Estrella, and she just stared at what she had done. As the smoke started to clear she could see various pieces of metal and other debris covering the land below her. She continued to fall, gravity pulling her down forcefully, as if it was aggravated. The bean closed her eyes, curled up and whimpered, waiting for the impact she knew would come to end her misery. Finally it came, knocking her out cold. She was later found and picked up by a news reporter who gave her to a vet, who slowly nursed her back to relatively good health. Once Estrella was ready to leave the vet she was given to the orphanage, where she continued her life.
