Chicken Little ("C.L.") is the main character of the story. In Story Mode the player starts out as CL, and must also play as her on the final level. The game begins when CL, while reading a book under the shade of a tree, notices a horrible storm approaching the kingdom. From there she must race against time to warn the King before it's too late!

CL's special move is EARTHQUAKE, and is a relection of her ground-breaking determination.

Henny Penny is CL's mother, and the first person CL turns to for help. Henny thinks CL's pulling her leg at first, but once defeated fires up the station wagon and decides to ask Goosey for advice.

Henny's special move is PEACE / PROTECTION, a reflection of her motherly nature and retro culture.

Goosey Lucy is Henny and CL's next door neighbor. Henny and CL go to her for help, and her advice is simple : go tell the king. However she refuses to budge from her home, despite the approaching storms. Once defeated she agrees to come along.

Goosey's special move is SLOW FREEZE, a result of her coldened exterior of a personality.

Shaky Snakey is an inept villain who tries to trap CL on the road to the city. CL stuffs the defeated Snakey in a mailing tube so he won't cause any more trouble. Snakey accompanies the heroes for the remainder of the game, complaining constantly about his predicament... except most of the time none of them can hear a word he's saying (thank goodness!)

Snakey's special move is TELEPORT because like, he has a cellphone. You know how fancy those things are getting these days.

Burly Bunny is an auto-mechanic that is called to help when Henny's station wagon breaks down on the way to the palace. The car can't be fixed without towing it to the shop, leaving our heroes without transportation. They ask Burly to take them to the King, but he's not allowed to use the company car (his towtruck) for personal trips. Once defeated, he agrees to bend the rules and give them a ride.

Burly's special move is FIREBALL.

Turkey Lurkey is a local punk and artist. When our heroes arrive at the King's palace, they find Turkey spraypainting graffiti on the doors. He refuses to move out of the way until he's finished his masterpiece. Once defeated, he moves out of the way.

Turkey's special move is SPRAYPAINT, and trust me, he's had a lot of practice.

Our heroes find the palace deserted, except for Foxy Loxy, who sits in the king's throne. It appears that he has cooked the King, and furthermore attempts to eat our heroes. Once defeated, he admits that the King is alive and unharmed. Foxy escapes, and our heroes pursue him.

Foxy's special move is ROAR. Yea, the whole huff, puff, blow the house down thing is from an entirely different fable, but it works.

Foxy is chased to the docks, where he steals a speedboat and escapes. Burly's friend Ducky Lucky is on his boat nearby, but he's currently taking on supplies. Once defeated he agrees to stop everything and chase Foxy. The player faces a second match with Foxy out on the water, during a boat chase.

Ducky's special move is LUCK, because he doesn't look like he's had much of it up to this point and we figured the poor fella deserves a break.

Our heroes step onto an island Foxy was heading for, where they find a volcano surrounded by a security wall. Foxy tells them the king is being held in a building built into the volcano. When our heroes try to enter however, they are met with resistance in the form of the security robot BOLT.

Bolt's special move is MISSILE SWARM.

The King is the true villain of the game. Inside his volcano lair is a weather machine he constructed to create the storms with. The royal treasury was empty, so he devised a money-making scheme. When the storms destroy his kingdom, he will collect the insurance and be able to retire to a tropical island somewhere. Unfortunately since our heroes have discovered his plan, he has to destroy them.

The King is the final level of the game, and is a special scenario. The left half of the screen is the player's gameboard, and the right half is the king inside his weather machine robot. The player has to manage three Level 3 special moves to destroy the weather machine and win the match.

The King's special move is LIGHTNING. He has gadgets that allow him to control the weather and create storms after all.
