Narrator: If you answered “it will fart rainbows”,
then that is incorrect. Let’s see what is happening at Branden’s place.
Ring. Ring.
“I’ll
get it.”
“Oh,
come in.”
It
is April 1, 2159, Princess the Unicorn (literally a unicorn) and Magar, a
wizard, from the book Bad Unicorn
have been invited to eat at Branden’s (from The
Kid War, which was from June 13, 2052 to June 30, 2052) great (130
generations) grandchild’s place.
Branden
VII opens the door and sees a unicorn who has a basket, perhaps with frobbits
inside. Frobbits are short, small, and a bit salty creatures with bog ears,
hairy feet, large eyes, and roundish bodies because of eating and drinking. The
unicorn has a blue mane, and tail, and a forehead with stars on it. Standing
beside her is Magar, a skinny guy with grey-flecked hair and a black goatee - the
goatees you see on evil henchmen, but he is not evil. Magar wears “pajamas”
with stars and moons and a pointed hat with stars and moons.
Branden,
Princess, and Magar sits down at a dining table covered with scrumptious
Chinese food steaming hot.
“I
don’t like salmon,” grumbles Magar, poking the salmon.
Princess
opens the basket she bought, “I present, frobbits. Now eat them or else say
good bye to the world.”
“UMM,”
everyone replies simultaneously. “OK.”
“So,
Magar,” says Branden VII. “What is the Codex
of Infinite Knowability?”
“Well,”
Magar explains. “The Codex is an old
book whose pages are placed randomly so you should not use the book for book
responses. The book also contains the fifteen prime spells, the foundation of
the magic in the three realms. The Codex
is guarded by eletricity that stings you when you touch it. Only few have ever
opened the boo-”
“I
was wondering, why do people draw unicorns with horns?” asks Princess.
“DON’T
ANSWER,” whispers Magar in a hushed tone to Branden VII.
“Hm.”
Everyone
talks, relaxes, and eats the food while watching a hologram show.
“What
is this, a magic picture maker that shows you anything?” wonders Magar.
“This
is a TV,” Branden replies. “You can watch whatever TV shows on it, depending on
the TV provider. The newer versions are small boxes that project a TV like
hologram into the air. This TV was created by Johnly’s (from The Kid War) great (127 Greats) grandkid. But, his son is currently trying to make the
new TV better by letting it project colors. That TV is coming into stores in
2020.”
“That
is an interesting tec-no-lo-a-giez or what humans call electronics. I think I
am going to bring one back to entertain me while on the two year trip to the
Magrus where I live.”
Princess
brings up the question.
“Seriously,”
Princess ponders. “Why do people draw unicorns with horns?”
Silence.
“Branden...
Magar...”
Silence.
“You
better tell me.”
Silence.
“Grrr…”
(Horn sparkles.) “RAH!”
Princess
flips the dining table over - salmon slapping Magar, rice smashing Branden,
broccoli fumbling onto Mrs. Wang (Branden’s mom), and eggs colliding with Mr.
Wang (Branden’s dad) – and the ground cracks. Well, you might be worried that the
people are going to be thirsty. Well fear not! The next three minutes everyone
will be basically showering in sweet and sour soup.
“AH!”
everyone cries.
“MUAHHHH
MUAHHHH MUAHHHH!” Princess yells.
Narrator: The answer to the question? We don’t
know. A unicorn has not come to the Earth from the Magrus - where Magar and
Princess live - soooo we don’t know. What? You expect us to KNOW? But, we can
guess from the story that once you invite a unicorn to your house, it will wreck
your house so hard.
~MORAL~
Do not invite princesses with horns to
your house. Wizards are fine.

Branden, I love the hilarious, action-packed surprise ending. And your vivid writing made me feel like I was right there in the dining room with your characters. A superb creative piece!
Hi Branden,
Another hysterical piece of work you have there! Your writing is getting more sophisticated everyday. Great job to both student and coach! You should be proud of having such a great coach. :)
