## Plot

### Part I: Raccoon on the Run

Titus, the miniature greyhound creeps into the paths of Ankle Snap Alley, a place beneath the Slivered Sky full of thieves, crooks & cheaters, where he awaits info on the whereabouts of the Bone of Contention which contains marks of Azban, the first raccoon. Sixclaw, the orange cat shows ups & brings a trapped woodpecker to peck the address of the current owner of a stone with clues to finding the bone. With this newfound information, Titus orders Sixclaw to have the raccoons who own the bone killed.

Kit, A young, big sky raccoon gets woken up by his mother who tells him to run as he & his family are attacked by a group of bloodhounds, as his parents fight off the hounds, Kit runs to the top of the tree to avoid being attacked by the hounds, as he curls up, he remembers the time his parents explain about Ankle Snap Alley, how Uncle Rik lives in the alley while they try to study the stone & the story of Azban, who tricked Brutus, duke of dogs, in a game of chance & won the moonlight from him. Kit is then shocked by the voice of Sixclaw whose above him as he then shoves him off the tree and into the hounds.

As the hounds circle Kit, ready to attack him... Kit's mother attacks one of the hounds to protect her son, she then fights off the hounds while Kit gets chased by two of the dogs till the leader yells for everyone to stop as Kit's mother holds the leader's collar, urging the dogs to let her son go. She then orders the dogs to roll on their backs as it's now nothing but silence as she twists the leader's collar and then shouts for Kit to run. As they begin to break for it, Kit's mother tells her son that they can't go back home & they have to find Uncle Rik, but that all came to a stop when Kit's mom was snapped by a metal trap hidden beneath some leaves. Without any means of escape, she then hands Kit the stone his father was studying as she tells him he has to run and give the stone to his uncle. Kit then forms a letter A, a sign of Azban to his mother as he runs off to try to find his uncle at the Ankle Snap Alley.

### Part II: Liars, Cheats, and Uncles

When Kit got to Ankle Snap Alley, he made sure to keep his stuff & the footprint of Azban safe, he saw the folks of the alley like a python collecting seeds from Ansel, Enrique Gallo & others. Nobody but The Blacktail brothers Shane & Flynn noticed Kit arriving at the alley, so they start to set up their shell and nut game to get Kit's Attention.

As Flynn got Kit's attention, Kit decided to ask the Blacktail brothers to see where his uncle is, they suggested a friendly game of shell and nut but Kit refuses, they talk about how the place isn't safe with the traps & the Flealess but the Rabid Rascals such as them makes sure the folks are safe from danger, the Blacktail brothers show Kit how their game works, as they played their game, Kit ignored Flynn's talking to hear the noise of the nut, he wins & a crowd cheers for him, they urge Kit to keep playing, Kit wasn't sure at first but everyone kept telling him to keep going, so he decides to continue.

Flynn suggested to Kit to bet all his seeds, he didn't want to but he also didn't want to be called a baby fur in a shiny coat, so he bets all of his seeds, however... he loses the game & he either had to pay up all the seeds or get a loan, as Kit was about to pay them, his pouch & the stone was stolen by an albino rat & he wasn't going to let it get stolen, so he escaped from the crowd that kept wanting Kit to continue & chases after the rat.

As Kit entered the underground cavern to search for the rat that stole his stuff, a grey church mouse gives him a pamphlet & talks about how the Bone of Contention brought peace before Brutus betrayed them. As he walks away from the crazy church mouse, a noise & a scream echo through the cavern, no one went to the sound to help... so Kit went to the sound of the scream which leads him to a place torn down by the Flealess, inside the place was Eeni, the rat that stole his stuff with her tail trapped.

He gets mad at her for stealing his stuff but helps her out of the trap, Eeni tells him she only stole it to get him away from the Blacktail brothers from getting "rabbit-rolled" & gives his stuff back, he tells her about his uncle and doesn't know where his uncle lives, so she helps him out by taking him to the Brood... which is the place chickens like to gossip, Eeni asks the chickens about where Kit's uncle lives and they tell them where he lives for a fee but they also warn that Rik doesn't like visitors.

When they got to Uncle Rik's place, he tells them to leave until Kit says that his parents got killed and starts to cry, so Rik lets them inside his place and brings them some water, Kit explained he tried to save them but he couldn't, but he did bring the stone to Rik & gave it to him, Rik tells them that the dogs wanted the stone destroyed because it was proof that Azban was here in Ankle Snap way long ago, before he could continue, the Blacktail brothers & Basil, the python burst through the door to have Kit pay what he owes them or they make Basil eat him alive.

Kit gets coiled up by Basil and is unable to escape, so he comes up with a lie with the help of Eeni and Uncle Rik to get the Blacktail brothers and Basil into the tire filled with traps. Once they trick them into getting into the tire, Kit, Eeni, and Uncle Rik roll them away from Ankle Snap, which gains them the support of the rest of the Alley's residents. Rik then takes Kit and Eeni to Ansel's Bakery to get something to eat.

Behind the shadows, Sixclaw tells Titus that Kit was the raccoon that escaped the hounds, so Titus orders Sixclaw again to kill them so they can make sure the bone can never be found.
