Falling Furniture Causes Mass Panic
Written By Fallout

A beanbag caused chaos and discord when it came barreling out of the sky and into the center of a crowded marketplace Monday evening. The origins of the beanbag, shaped in the likeness of an Arctic Vix, still have yet to be explained.

“It was terrible!” says one Phelocan, a mother of five, who had been out shopping with her children. “All I remember is hearing someone shout, 'Watch out!' Then there were bodies everywhere. I think I even saw an airborne Cheran or two. And the fruit! Oh the fruit! It was everywhere!” In the ensuing panic, her chicks had gotten separated from her and ran around in circles screeching until she found them again.

There were many injuries, including two Comeils that had some bruising on their legs, a Stignightus with a black eye, and an overturned Mandoran that had to be towed. Sadly, among the many bruises and stepped on toes, the chaos did present a few tragic casualties. A carton of eggs had been dropped and an overturned fruit stand had scattered apples, oranges, and grapefruits everywhere, attracting a large camp of hungry Frodrinn interested in helping with the cleanup.

“When I first received the call, I thought it was just an overreaction to someone knocking something off their balcony,” quoted Officer Coppa, the first to respond. “But then I saw the shattered eggs all over the place and immediately realized it was serious. I felt sick to my stomach.”

“I have never seen that beanbag in my life...” Maury the local mail delivery Phelocan replied nervously when asked for a comment. Shortly after giving his testimony, he apparently saw a three-headed monkey behind the interviewer and disappeared before they could find it.

The beanbag is currently in possession of scientists who are struggling to explain where it came from. Theories range from falling out of an airplane to being the product of a time travel experiment from the future. Along with the more logical and scientific theories, a couple of loonies have devised their own theories behind its mysterious origins. One group claims that it is a sign of the end of times, quoting a prophecy as foretold by the homeless guy living in a dumpster behind their apartment complex, while another claims that the being is really a visiting alien trapped in the body of a beanbag chair and have formed a cult around it. The cult is currently demanding its release from the scientists' custody, claiming it just wants to go back home. It has also been theorized that the mysterious appearance of the beanbag and the recent three-headed monkey sightings may be interlinked.
