I. The Discovery
Our main protagonist calls himself AxePumpkin or just Axe for short. He drags around a heavy axe that causes more damage than usual pumpkinmen.

Axe spent most of his time on the ground, even if it was dangerous because of all the munchballs rolling around. He would eliminate some individual balls and have his teammates take care of large groups of them.
CannonPumpkin and ButcherPumpkin were a package deal that came together. Cannon was shorter with a cannon for a left hand. Butcher was taller, blind and had a set of abnormally long arms. He was only blind in high levels of light, making him an expert nocturnal hunter.

Cannon and Butcher usually spent their time on rooftops eyeing the enemies on the ground below them. Butcher also had a small obsession with Cannon's butt, which she had to learn to tolerate. Cannon often had red marks on her cheeks from all of Butcher's "playful" spankings and ass grabs. She could just be peacefully looking out over the roof minding her own business, and then a sharp pain would be felt across her asscheeks from an ambush. Axe was hiding in an alleyway when he heard a female voice call out "sir" to him. He turned around to see a pumpkinwoman leap off of a short, nearby building and onto the ground before him. She stood up with a sword on either hand and two sword holsters on her belt. Her expression was mildly pissed and worried at the same time. She approached Axe and asked him why the hell was he out on the streets alone with just an axe. Nothing was said at first, and upon realizing he was shamelessly staring at this stranger's breasts for way too long, Axe jumped back into the conversation before she can notice where his gaze was fixed on. "I prefer to work alone." Before the conversation could continue, a shadow flew across the pavement around them. Axe and the new character turn to face this particular direction in time to see a winged munchball fly over its brothers and sisters before landing on the road. A bit later, late at night, the Board of Pumpkins were having a meeting that was called by Axe. King Pumpkin had attended the meeting and Axe was not about to make a fool out of himself in front of the most powerful people of their secret nation. With the straightest face, he stated the direct problem. A winged munchball. The government officials looked puzzled, as if not knowing to believe this man or not. Axe described the new creature as the same as a munchball except with some sort of feathery wing on either side of its body. He called in two witnesses to speak with them, Cannon and the pumpkinwoman who never told Axe her name. Cannon explained that she only saw the winged munchball out of the corner if her eye and didn't get a good look at it. The other witness, who introduced herself as SwordsPumpkin, told the government officials that she also saw the new creature with Axe. King Pumpkin rubbed his stiff chin thoughtfully before leaning to his right towards SargeantPumpkin and whispering something to him. Sergeant then got up from his seat and walked over to Butcher, who had been passively leaning against the wall. He told him to put his night guards on alert and extra precautions in case the new creature was abnormally dangerous, since Butcher was in charge of Night Security. Because of all the light in the room, Butcher was unable to see. So, he left the room running his sharp fingernails along the walls, feeling his way out. King Pumpkin assured Axe and Swords that the issue would be taken care of and dismissed the meeting. Axe and Swords left the room, dicussing about what was next to be done. Swords explained that she was a bit of a night owl and wanted to help gaurd the HQ from nocturnal munchballs, which of course seemed like a terrible idea to Axe. He told her that Butcher's team had it covered, but Swords insisted she should do it. As Swords ranted on about this, Axe once again found himself staring at her boobs, feeling like Butcher when Cannon leaves her ass vulnerable and undefended to a smack or a scented face-plant. "Hundreds of soldiers die every week," Axe warned her, "and you don't seem to be professionally equiped or experienced for the army." "You wander the streets, lugging around an axe and you're fine." "I pick them off one by one," Axe said through gritted teeth, "and I have decent experience in combat." HelmetPumpkin worked for the Armory Shop located nearby to the Military Camp. He was very skilled in crafting armor for the soldiers, whilst his boss, SmithPumpkin, made their weapons. On one fateful day, his little sister arrived home very late. Of course, like any older brother who's in charge of his siblings, Helmet was mad. He had been very worried and felt the need to scold her, which he did. But he didn't see the danger. The danger of the flying munchball that crashed through their living room window. Helmet felt pain like he never felt before. The pain of two giant jaws crushing his body as the munchball snatched him up. The last thing Helmet would see were his little sisters. One, an infant, in the hands of the other, fear in their eyes as they saw their gaurdian swept off his feet and flown out of their sight towards his eventual death.
