The Three Word Story, Part 3

[JudyA]

Hi all... standard operating procedure applies: each poster has three words to continue telling a (rather wacky) story - and the rule is you don't post twice in a row to continue the story... you have to wait for someone else!

Now, it's been PAGES since we did a recap, but here is the latest...


They quickly sank towards the ground under the heavy pigeons that sat eating plastic until one of them took a huge baggie and blew up a small double post. The post sank to the floor and the pigeons swarmed around the carcass of Tinkerbell who had eaten a rather smelly old sock and perished because of its weasel infestation.

Suddenly, everybody started dancing which surprised Gandalf so much that he dropped the big, sparkly new handbag on a hairy hobbit foot and ran screaming from the scene. The Shirriffs were eating dinner with a flock of noisy parrots that sang Happy Birthday to absolutely anyone, but this annoyed the Shirriffs, so they took up the art of feng shui to avoid an outburst from Treebeard.

However... Treebeard being the main event at the Festival of Forest Fauna, he dressed in Christmas lights and long green tights, which made him say a few curses in ancient Elvish.

This made the Shirriffs even more dangerous than usual, so they decided to lock up the greatly offensive Treebeard, with tights, and lights about him in a tower made of bark and vines – until he could dance a jig in pink boots for the Shirriffs. But they couldn't make Treebeard dance, because he had dug his toes into a pudding with whipped cream. The furious Shirriffs drank a pint or two of frothy lager before having to burp three times and get aftershocks from too many hops.

Treebeard twisted his finger as he escaped and it broke off, landing with finger and ring in the mud. As soon as he realised that someone had stolen the Christmas cake from the pantry, he saw red and green exploding sticky bubble gum fly across the room, until it reached a critical switch, and all the shiny lights began to shine glory with the random pieces that fell across Treebeard's limbs and killed a few passing mice.

Treebeard's nose got caught by a passing tree branch, which made all the mice run for Disneyland. Mickey Mouse greeted them with great joy and exuberance. It was surprising, but nevertheless, Treebeard wasn't about to ride the Roaring Camp Railroad.

All the pretty horses were much more sensible than the blue jays because they didn't run off in Treebeard's or Gandalf's backyard. Understandably, Minnie Mouse got cross, all because of a broken souffle! Incidentally, the flavour was annoyingly deficient, so that's why nobody really cared that Minnie gave it the boot and went for the fudge instead. Gandalf loved fudge, and he just had to take some to scoff – just a few, which he hoped would not be laced with potions from Minnie and kill everyone there.

Right on the table's edge, fudge became entangled in a giant spider that had crawled away from Gandalf to pounce upon the chocolate cake nearby. Gandalf ate half of the frosting first and the edible candles but Treebeard snaffled some extra fudge while Gandalf wasn't looking that way. Scoffing the lot, he turned bright pink, which was a lovely shade for someone with long, flowing white hair – although Treebeard's beauty parlour was taking reservations after the incident with sweets for all. He then said that never again would he ever use permanents with green dye, because green was so hard on roots!

Suddenly, without warning, a hungry eagle swooped on the head of Frodo,
who barely managed to dodge. Then... Gandalf raised his bag of jellybeans and they flew all over the forest floor which caused Pippin to slip and fall! Grabbing a pumpkin and landing on Treebeard's head, Gandalf instantly remarked, "Thunderation!", and leaped into a nearby stream where pumpkin seeds were transported by Pippin's boat service to the coast where Pumpkin People adopted them. Happily all the seeds grew up well making evil faces, causing parents to wonder why they make them when they are all so scary.

Eventually all Pumpkin Children stop doing faces and instead begin a new diet of fresh raspberries and clotted cream. But the diet will make their teeth fall out without root canals. All over the forest, teeth were falling willy nilly, so Treebeard grabbed them and planted each one carefully, singing them lullabies, so they would grow into a big, giant enormous very dramatic looking pumpkin. Each one wanted nice teeth so this involved daily dental care
