"Cram & Nort", a short story I didn't want to write, By Justin Holmes.
********************************************************************************
Lisa: I'm bored. tell me a happy story
Justin: Once there was this bunny. His name was Cram. Cram lived on a farm, and was happy
with his simple life.
Lisa: haha...cram
Justin: But one day, something bad happened... The farm was demolished by an earthquake.
Cram took his walking stick, tied a handkerchief full of vegetables to the end, slung it over his
shoulder, and set off. On the road, he met a platypus named Nort. Nort walked with Cram.
"Where are you from?" asked Nort.
"I am from nowhere. I have no destination. I have no name." Replied Cram.
"Yes you do, your name is Cram!" said Nort.
Lisa: haha...
Justin: "Don't be a smart ass." Said Cram, and beat him about the ears with his stick. They
stopped to eat lunch. Nort began fidgeting.
Lisa: hahahahah...I like this story more and more!
Justin: "Sit still," said Cram.
"I can't, I have A.D.D." said Nort. So they began to walk again. "Where are we going?" asked
Nort.
Lisa: he he!
Justin: "I'm going to find a new home," said Cram, "and YOU are going to stop following me."
"No I'm not!" said Nort.
Cram sighed.
Lisa: cram's a jerk!
Justin: Nort sighed.
"Stop copying me," said Cram.
"Stop copying me," chirped Nort.
"I'll kill you," said Cram.
"I'll kill you!" said Nort.
Lisa: he he!
Justin: Cram beat Nort about the ears with his stick.
"Okay! Ouch! Lemme go!" cried Nort.
Lisa: hahahaha!
Justin: "Not until you promise to stop copying me!" said Cram.
"Fine! I promise to stop!" said Nort. And they continued to walk. Soon they came to a town.
Cram looked around, but the town seemed empty of living people.
Lisa: ahaha!
Justin: "This town is creepy. It's just full of dead bodies that bleed sand when you cut them,"
said Nort.
Lisa: eeeek!
Justin: "Why did you cut them?" asked Cram?
"I was bored," said Nort.
SO CRAM KILLED NORT AND RULED THE TOWN, THE END.
Lisa: good story
Lisa: thanks!
Justin: You're welcome.
