Prologue--- For months, fires raged over the county, forcing many to evacuate. After the people, the wildlife left the area as it became too smoky for thier liking. But one family left behind a coop of twenty chickens, including two roosters. After their food and water ran out, in about three weeks, the chickens escaped, and headed for the riverside hills, the nearest unburnt area. The chickens settled in an area on top of a hill, in an area surrounded by a creek--the creek ran from a large spring, than snaked around the hill almost all the way back to the spring before falling down the hill. For the first year in Creekside village, as the chickens called it, it was a fight for survival, but slowly, the chickens began to adjust, and then to thrive.
