Characters:

Snake-Sprite
(girl-green & white stripes)
Tommy the cat was talking to Bill
the fish one day and said, “I want to eat you.”
“What do you mean, you want to eat
me? I thought we were friends!” said Bill.
Tommy said, “You’ll be yummy!”
Bill swam into his castle in the
fishbowl to hide. He peeked out of his
castle window and noticed Sprite acting suspicious by the windowsill.
Then, suddenly, Sprite eats the
cactus on the windowsill.
“Don’t eat a cactus!” exclaimed
Tucker.
“Too late…” grumbled Sprite. Her
belly started to hurt because all the spikes from the cactus were stuck inside
of her. She began twitching and turning, trying to get the cactus out. Tucker
watched as Sprite began to puke on the floor. Tucker was afraid that Sprite
would turn into a snake-cactus!
After much effort, most of the
cactus came out of Sprite, but there was a small part left in. That small part made Sprite sick. She just
lay on the floor and wouldn’t play with Tommy and Tucker all day.
While Tommy and Tucker played, and
Sprite lay on the floor, Bill emerged from his castle cautiously. He whispered down to the invalid Sprite, “Are
you okay?”
Sprite whispered up at him, “No…I’m
really not. I feel like there’s a porcupine in my stomach.”
Tommy noticed that Bill had come out
of his castle and came over to apologize. “Hey Bill, I’m really sorry I said I wanted
to eat you. I’ll never do it again. You just looked really good and I just said
it. I promise I won’t say it again. It must have scared you.”
“It really did. Thanks for
apologizing,” said Bill.
While Bill and Tommy were talking,
Tucker went and got some medicine for Sprite.
He gave it to her in a baby bottle because she’s a snake and only has
fangs. Once Sprite took the medicine,
after a few hours she was good as new, and decided to go dancing with her
friends.
