Previously on __Frogunamu__, Specks the frog narrowly escapes Toto the silver chub, however, Toto was able to eat Ralph, Specks baby brother. Now Specks seeks out the Legendary Red Panda, known to defy the laws of nature, and somehow bring Ralph back to life. = __ The Hunt for the Red Panda __ = **Written by: Max M. and Ashton C.** Specks stumbles over yet another bush on his adventure for the Red Panda. Specks hears something overhead and looks up. Something swoops down in front of him. It rushes forward and scoops Specks off the ground and starts flying. When they landed they were in a nest up on a tree.

Specks says to himself “It’s over”

Then the creature looming over Specks bellows “So you finally made it to dinner, huh? Well now you can finally see where I live”

Specks recognized the voice, it was his friend Veevo!

 “The location isn’t great but the Red Cedar doesn’t mind. So what’cha doing ‘round here, little man?”

“I’m searching for the Red Panda to bring my brother to life again!”

“Woahhhh, Deeeeep maaannn, need any help, little dude?”

“Can you fly me around?”

“If you wannnt maann”

“Yes I would”

“Hold on maann”

And with that Veevo snatched Specks and flew off with him into the distance at the speed of sound!

“Wait, Wait land there”

Veevo swooped down and landed in a Red Cedar where a dark figure stood waiting.

“I’ve been waiting for you. You must get past me to get to the Red Panda.” The creature said. It stepped out into the light.

Veevo and Specks laughed, it was just a tiny termite!

“What are you laughing at?” The small monster shouted “I am frightening!!!”

“Frighteningly adorable!” Specks laughed.

At the last statement the termite spit a piece of wood at Specks. Specks wasn’t expecting it and stumbled back a little.
