Skulker Python and the purple-backed gorilla
Summary: Ever wonder how people reacted when Skulker went to pick up the books and stuff? You're about to find out!
Disclaimer: Don't own it, never have, but maybe someday (God willing) I will do.
The PDA bleeped and Skulker found himself flying off to the library to pick up a book on purple-backed gorillas. (cough) Unfortunately, (cough) he couldn't find it.
"Darn this infernal device! Where can I find this damned book!"
Suddenly, a head popped out from under the librarian's desk.
"What do you want, silly metal person?" It demanded in a really bad, fake French accent. "Do not waste my time by looking for your silly book with me, for I-a already have one!" The so-called librarian then proceeded to drive Skulker out the library with a copy of the dictionary and some stuffed farm animals thrown over the desk.
"I-a fart in your general direction. Your mother was a stuffed gerbil creature, and your father smelled even worse than elderberries! Now go away, before I taunt you some more!"
Once safely away from the taunts and ammunition of the librarian, Skulker swore revenge on him, before flying off to attempt to catch Danny. Or at least, he would have¼
BEEP!
"'Go to magazine stand and pick up magazine with article about purple backed gorillas!'"
(At the magazine stand)
"You come for a magazine?" the squeaky-voiced teen manning the stand sniggered. "It ain't Halloween for another year, practically"
"Ridicule me again and your pelt will adorn the front of my armour," Skulker growled.
The teen looked freaked out for a minute. "O¼ .kay¼ . Seriously dude, I meant no offence, what's eating you?" he stammered, handing Skulker the magazine.
Suddenly, the staff of the stand burst into song:
We're the staff of the magazine stand,
We dance on glossy page-hands!
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork on demand
We a little bit mad at this place,
Crazy fruit-loops in your face!
We're the staff of the magazine stand
Our shows, are built to stand
But many times we're given rhymes
That don't make sense and can't
We're comic mad in this stand
We've read practically every brand!
In selling we're tough and able
Quite indefatigable
In our selling-fests
We sequin vests
And impersonate Inviso-Bill
It's a busy life in this stand
I have to put magazines in hands!
Skulker was more than a little freaked out. And so the day carried on, in pretty much the same fashion. That is, Skulker being millimetres away from capturing Danny, and being pulled away to someplace else like the zoo. (Ni!) The next morning, Skulker forgot about the PDA. Until…
BEEP!
'Go to library and check out book on the eating habits of purple backed gorillas!'
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Yeah, I know, it's pathetically short… Read and review please! No flames unless accompanied with ways to improve!
