Turn the Tides 2020

Chip ends up in the dead center of the rescue mission helpers, being asked to go from high water to low, watching out for those trapped and seeing all the wreckage the tsunami caused around them. “What exactly caused something like this to happen, there's been talk all over the place and it's just too weird!” The peanut butter and chocolate colored onini says to themself under their breath. Slowly trudging through three foot high water, he ends up at a house painted in a leafy green with a large mural of the ocean on one side wall right by the shore, one that had been almost completely ripped off its base in the worst of the storm. Looking closer it wasn’t exactly in the best shape but it seemed like something was urging him inside, a small cry of an Orch. Since the second floor was high enough to be out of the water and most of the roof was intact to keep them out of the rain, it was the only place safe for the little ball of fire. Quickly heading up Chip finds the, now much smaller than normal, companion. He tries to reach for them but quickly gets their paw burnt. After a moment of deliberation he takes his cap off and scoops the thing up, fully covering them. Sighing with relief that it worked Chip begins to leave and head for a safe area, keeping the hat and whats inside out of the flood waters and at times even over their head with the residual waves crashing about between buildings.
