“Mother, I'm going out!” Audio shouts as she nears the library doors.

Entering the land of books, Audio zooms her way to a book on a lectern. It's a travel guide.

Audio flips through the pages and lands on something that catches her eye. A place called Kahari.

Following the instructions, Audio opens a triangular portal and leaps in.

The air is cool, the sky is dark, the stars are out, and everything is grand. Audio pulls out her phone and turns on a game soundtrack. Her adventure starts.

Walking, walking, and more walking. A town can be seen in the distance. Target acquired. As Audio makes her way to the town she hears a voice calling out.

“HEY! WAIT COME BACK!!”

Curious about what's going on, Audio makes a detour. She finds a young woman chasing after a swarm of white puffballs. She is out of breath.

“Excuse me,” Audio catches up to the woman. “Need some help?”

“The eeps,” the woman huffs. “They escaped from the shop.”

Audio tilts her head. “What kind of shop?”

“A pet shop. Someone left their habitat open and they all zoomed out the door!”

Audio feels something attached to her back.

“Eep eep!”

She pats around till she feels something soft. She gently detaches it from her back. A small teal puff with a little curly antenna sits in her hand.

“Eep eep!”

“Oh hey!! That one seems to like you!”

A horde of white puffs pass behind the woman and attach to her back.

The woman sighs with releaf.

“Looks like they found me instead of me finding them.” She laughs.

“Eep eep eep!!!”

The small thing in Audio's hand is incredibly soft.

“Looks like that one wants to stay with you. I have to get back to the shop before these guys wander off again. Come stop by!”

“Sure! I'll come with you!”

The woman and Audio with the new Eepy friends make their way into town. They come across a large building with a sign reading “Pets-o-Frendo”

They enter.

“Susan you're back!” A man holding a cat with little mushrooms growing from its fur exclames.

“Yes I have returned and with the loose Eeps!”

“Thank heck! Here let me help you!”

The man places the mushroom cat onto a counter and heads over to Susan and Audio. He helps detach the Eeps and releases them into a room labeled “Eep land”.

“One more?” The man gestures to the Eep Audio is holding.

“She can keep that one. It really seems to like her.” Susan smiles at Audio.

“Eeeeeep!” The Eep is happy with this news.

“Alright, have you ever had a pet Eep before?”

Audio shakes her head.

The man takes a pamphlet from the door of the Eep room and hands it to Audio.

“Eep care is simple, almost as easy as a fish. Maybe simpler!”

“Thanks!”

“Eep eep!!”

They all giggle at the little guy.

“It was nice meeting you guys, I should be going home now.” Audio says.

“No problem! Have fun with your new friend!” 

Audio leaves the shop with her Eep and summons a triangular portal back to The Above.

Bringing the Eep home was the best thing. Audio decides to name it Little Man. Little Man and Audio head back to Audio's room.

“Freedom for the Man!” Audio sets Little Man on her desk as she sits and starts to read the pamphlet.

“Eep care,” it reads. “Eeps are simple to care for, they can eat most anything and love to be pet and brushed.”

Audio looks at her friend and gives it a pat before reading on.

“Eeps are low maintenance. Just remember to keep your Eep happy by giving it love and attention.”

“You're going to get all the live and attention.” Audio picks up Little man and lifts it to her face. The Eep gently rubs against her cheek. It vibrates with joy.

“Let's get you something to eat.”

Audio sets Little Man onto her head and leaves her room. On the way to the kitchen Audio runs into her mom, Cass Spell.

“Look mom! I made a new friend!”

“That's nice dear. What is it?”

“It's called an Eep! I took a trip to Kahari, met some nice people and made a new friend!”

“Does it have a name?”

“I called it Little Man!”

“Sounds like a name you would come up with.” Cass giggles. “Alright. I need to check in with the Chaos Keepers.” 

“Say hi to them for me!”

“Will do.”

Cass and Audio part ways. Audio makes her way to the kitchen with Little Man. 

“What have we got for you to eat… Do you like pizza rolls?”

“Eep Eep!!”

Audio takes the pizza rolls out of the package and starts to heat them up.

Little Man waits excitedly.

Diiing 

“All done!” Audio plates the rolls and brings them back to her room with Little man.

Setting the plate and the Eep down on her desk, Audio decides the rolls. “These are yours and these are mine.”

Chomp chomp chomp chomp.

The new friends eat the pizza rolls as Audio plays some music.she then goes down to the kitchen to get some water for the Eep.

Returning to her room, Audio sees that the eep has fallen asleep on her pillow.

“Cute little friend.” She places the water bowl on her desk.

She lays in bed carefully not to wake the eepy Eep.

“Today has been a good day, I'll have to go on another adventure soon.”
