I want to enter the contest!
Name of bat: Birdy
Gender: Male
Story: Birdy was born in fruitopia. He had a family who loved him, a mother bat, who was a pure black coconut back and his father, a long tailed coconut bat who was white with a grey patch over his eye. But that's all Birdy remembered about himself. He didn't even remember the name that his parent had given him, because a week after he was born his father lost him in a bad thunderstorm. Birdy ended up in the ocean, on a small bit of wood, floating further and further away from his hopes and dreams. He was too young to have learnt his name yet, so he brought nothing from his home island with him. After a few days he started to become dehydrated, and hungry, to the point where we lost consciousness and was going to die. That's when his mini boat found land. A human female found him. She nursed him back to health, and even gave him a growth potion she made. When he awoke she asked him where he was from. But really, Birdy didn't know. That night Birdy laid in the bed the human made for him from forest ferns in her tree hut, and Birdy heard some noises. Three huge rainbow birds with empty eye sockets attacked. Birdy struggled as they pecked holes in his wings and back with their strong rainbow beaks. That's when the human ran to him from hunting, dropping the things she had and hit the birds with a log. She knocked one of them out and the other two ran for their lives. The human picked up Birdy gently ad tried to help his wings and back. Suddenly the holes glowed all different colours and Birdy fainted. When Birdy awakened the holes where gone, and in their place where rainbow marks, exactly where the holes where. The human took him outside to play when he met a regular, harmless bird, but Birdy squeaked in fear and ran. When the curious bird followed Birdy made loud noises in effort to scare the bird but the bird ignored. Eventually it got bored and flew away. That's when the human named him Birdy. She called him Birdy because he disliked birds due to the trauma and bad first experience with birds. Birdy spent two weeks with the human, and during that time the human finished building a small boat she was making the human claimed to have been working on for months. That day, the human and Birdy set of in the boat to find a new island. They had enough supplies to survive two weeks on the boat. They spent four days on the boat when they spotted fruitopia on the horizon. Birdy had a burning feeling in his heart to return to the place he faintly recognised. That's when the boat was attacked by an unknown water creature. It tore the boat to peaces. The human told Birdy to run minutes before she was eaten. Birdy, traumatised, floated to shore in a day, still sad about his human friends death. Birdy explored the island, until he finally found his dad. He excitedly greeted his father and told him about his adventures and how Birdy was his son. But his father shook his head and said his son was dead, and that they found the body of his son and that Birdy was a liar, plus the dad claimed that his real son was not rainbow. Birdy tried to explain but his father wouldn't listen. When Birdy asked his father if he had a mate he said gruffly that she's dead and he flew away. Birdy walked to the shore disappointedly and Gummii appeared. Birdy made a loud noise and batted Gummii in the head with his wing. Gummii was scary in Birdys eyes because she was a bird. Gummii asked what his name was while dodging Birdys swiping wings. Birdy replied through attacks at Gummi, so Gummii asked the fruitituti bat owners to adopt him, so that he would have someone who he could trust, because obviously Gummii couldn't keep him. That's when he met me. Originally I named him Disco, but when I got to know him he explained his journey and I changed his name to Birdy; in memory of the human female.
Extra: Thanks for the opportunity! I hope you like it, also I added the story behind why he doesn't like birds. Sorry it's super long... I'm a writer and I love detail. Thanks for reading this (whoever does) because it's so long... I hope I get him and I will adore him! If I do get him I'll wait until a breeding slot is open and he and Asha will be mates. I'm also probably going to write a story about Birdys life because I could have included so much more information, but I made it as short as possible.Enjoy my story and thanks again for the opportunity! Good luck to everyone else.
(Also do you pay the jars immediately or when the contest is over? Just curious :>)
