Gummy smirked, pulling out a lasso before whipping it in circles above his head, his wrist knocking his balanced cowboy hat a couple times as it edged down his head.
He adjusted it, his cerulean gaze focused on the intimated birds now gathered before him. Gummy chuckled with confidence, his lasso still prepared to strike as his feet collided with the mauve feathers of the beastly bird below him.
Clawed feet dug into the dusty grounds of the rodeo with every quickly paced step the birds took - some from fear and means of escape, and some from the control of a true cowboy!
"Ride 'em gumboy!" Gummy screamed, a beaming smile of pride crossing his face.
Sorry, a true gumboy!
To complete the hectic events of the last few minutes like icing to a cake, the truck that delivered the army of emus skidded around a corner of the neighbouring road at uncontrollable speed.
The blackened wheels of the canary yellow truck drifted into place as the vehicle came to a sudden halt, the back doors smashing open to reveal the darkness where the emus once stood.
"Bam boozie! Just in time!" Gummy cried in relief.
The emus scurrying in front of himself scampered across the dusted auburn ground, leaping into the safe yet darkened depths of the truck.
Gummy smirked, his lasso continuing to whip above his head with confidence with pride running through his cobalt eyes at the sight of retreat.
In a single swift move, Gummy leapt from his comfortable position nestled within the mauve feathers of the beastly bird, allowing it to scurry into the vehicle with its fellow emu companions.
Gummy landed in a heroic stance, observing as the bearded cowboy from previously leapt out of the seat that would allow him to manoeuvre the vehicle.
Meanwhile, Harry remained flattened to the ground from the stampede of monstrous birds. He groaned in distress, pain shooting down every one of his limbs as he raised from the dust in agony.
Harry turned his head to examine his surroundings in a state of panic, searching desperately for his emu chick son.
A chirping sound alerted him to his presence, Harry quickly whipping around although in unbelievable pain until his panicked eyes laid upon the chick.
Harry scooped the ball of feathered fluff into his trembling hands. "Thank goodness you're safe!"
Unexpectedly, however, the mini emu sent his tiny beak pounding into Harry's face, aggressive shrieks from both himself and Harry echoing over one another.
Harry grasped his pretty plain nose in shock and pain, watching with guilt as his feathered friend scurried across the ground before nestling into the darkness of the truck surrounded by his fellow emus.
The cowboy driver of the vehicle chuckled in amusement. "Told you they was mean! Like I said, emus is bad news!"
Gummy smiled, reminiscing on the events of the past few hours. (Y/n) sighed, a hand to head in an attempt to cure her headache from the hectic events of the day so far as she slouched her shoulder beside her boyfriend's.
Gummy turned to her, his smile growing with pride and joy before facing his remaining companions.
"But the good news is, I got to be a cowboy! And ride emus! And I think I even broke my pelvis! So I can get a big cast that everybody can sign!" He cried in happiness, cobalt gaze focusing on his girlfriend as her aching head slouched against his.
"What a great day..." she mumbled sleepily.
Gummy chuckled, his head leaning against hers as they allowed exhaustion to take over, ready to just doze away into the land of peaceful sleep any minute...

A hardened shape of white material kept Gummy's waist and hips in a restricted position, a happy expression examining the many scribbles that coated it.
Gummy held the cast protecting his broken pelvis, fingers brushing against the most precious message of the many that decorated the creamy white material.
Is this what you wanted, gumboy~? I love you, silly <3
His thumb gently brushed against the sparkling pink ink scribbled with delicacy into the cast, a smile creeping across his face from the jokey tone yet true love the words emitted.
Gummy sighed, head resting against the immaculate white pillow squashed into the mattress of the hospital bed, eyes slowly closing to recollect the previous day's events in comfort and relaxation...
and his most recent surprise...
that he actually has bones...
