Once they got inside the house, the two had to take a step back from shock.
Muskrat had emptied the bags contents everywhere around the kitchen and could be seen stuffing his face so hard he was covered in different fruit and vegetable juices.
"Teenage appetites" their mother chuckled.
Stopping to take a few breathes, "What's with this mushroom, I've never seen one like it before" asked Muskrat.
He held up a strange looking mushroom that was so bright green in colour it looked like it was radiating with power as the glow would brighten and diminish.
The mushroom caught Whiskey-Jacks attention, curious also about the strange mushrooms origin.
"Knowing Muskrat he'll eat it without a second thought, but it could be poisonous" Whiskey-Jack thought
"I don't think you should eat that" he said, immediately taking the mushroom from his little brother.
Getting up from the floor, Muskrat and Whiskey- Jack fought over the mushroom.
"Hey I had it first, give it back, Mom!" yelled Muskrat
Eventually, due to age, Whiskey-Jack had won out in strength, and got his brother off him.
He felt a little relieved knowing his brother couldn't possibly hurt himself now that he had the mushroom.
Muskrat had lost, deciding to nurture his pride from being defeated by continuing to stuff his face with all the various fruits and vegetables.
"I swear, he would walk into a bear den, if he caught even a scent of food" Whiskey-Jack chuckled
Examining the mushroom, he held it up and looked at its strange appearance as it continued to brighten and diminish before putting it into his pocket.
"I better hold on to this and ask Dad when he gets back if he's ever seen anything like it" Thinking to himself
