Chapter Two – MachoChibi Floofypants II
Eduardo stood at the door of his parent’s house, shifting nervously from foot to foot. 何をしますか？何を言いますか？ he thought. He liked to try out different languages from time to time, so that he didn’t get too rusty. Even the perfect must practice. Reverting back to English, he wondered, What will I do? What will I say?
He moved his pack from his right shoulder to his left and kicked a pebble lying several miles away. He nervously glanced up at his mother. She smiled and gave him a hug. His father handed him some of his best homemade cheese bread and said, “Good luck, son. I’m sure that you’ll find some way to get the things you want. Whatever they were again…”
Eduardo grinned and waved to his parents. Maybe this will be okay after all, he thought. After all, I can just send them a letter whenever I want to. I can do anything.
Sauntering down the lane, Eduardo blew a kiss to Melinda and air-fived Felipe. Suddenly realizing that he didn’t have to walk, he bounded over the great green mountains surrounding their little valley and vanished into the distance. At the same instant, a bouquet of brightly-colored and fake-looking flowers appeared in Melinda’s hand. “What a lovely boy,” she said. “He turned out wonderfully.”
“I still think we should have named him Pancho,” sighed his father.


Skipping down the lane, Eduardo came upon a sudden forest.

Was it the same lane that he was sauntering down earlier?

No, no, you silly twit. He bounded away over the mountains, remember? This is an entirely different lane in an entirely different place. Now back to our hero.
Skipping down the lane, Eduardo came upon a sudden forest. Surprised, he skipped right into a tree. (Hardy har har – physical comedy. Told you this was an absurd story, didn’t I? ) Seeing as he had nothing else to do and seeing as the narrator says he did, Eduardo walked into the forest. It was certainly a very odd forest. There were lots of very odd noises and shadows that were there but really, really shouldn’t be.
As Eduardo could do anything, this made him very brave and rather conceited, so he kept on going into the very odd and sudden forest. He kept on going and going and going for so long that if I were to describe it all, why, I wouldn’t receive a grade at all because poor Mrs. Gaboury would have fallen asleep and dropped this comedic adventure epic on her face. But eventually (thank goodness for the poor bored narrator), something that was not boring happened to Eduardo. It was actually quite a downright interesting thing.
Eduardo was walking along, same as before, when a chinchilla dropped out of the nearest elm tree and onto his forehead. “HEY, BUDDY!” it squeaked, “GOT ANY SEVENS?”

Sevens? What in the world?

Shut up. Please, shut up. It’s my story, so let me tell it.

“Eh, sevens of what?” Eduardo replied.
“Cards, you idiot! I'm playing Go Fish. Got any sevens?”
“Um, no, unfortunately. But may I ask you who you are?”
“My name is MachoChibi Floofypants II, I’m a chinchilla, and my hair is better than yours!”
It was then that Eduardo noticed that the chinchilla had a pink mohawk.

ooooooh...a cliffhanger :)
Anyway, the thing about Mrs. Gaboury grading me on this is in there because I wrote this story for my Territory #2 paper. If you were wondering.

Also, if some random boxes happen to appear on your screen at the beginning of the chapter instead of words, that's because I typed in Japanese there. Just letting you know, in case Blogger or your computer can't read Japanese characters.

P.S. Please take a look at Bo's blog, RANDOM JUNK, to read the round-robin story that he and I are currently writing! It's funny! I love it! But it's full of private jokes that other people might not get....oh well. It was fun to write. High-five, Bo!
