Fish Trouble

Rainbow and Posie were very hungry. So Rainbow came up with a great idea.

"Posie!", said Rainbow,"I have a great idea!"

"Well, what is it Rainbow?", said Posie.

"Well, you know how we always like eating fish?", said Rainbow.

"Yes, I do. I love fish. Would you like to eat some?", said Posie.

"Yes, pretty much all the time, I like to eat fish. But, there's a problem!", said Rainbow.

"What's the problem? We love fish! What kind of problem could fish present?", said Posie,"Are they frozen? Are they old and yucky? Are they not real and are instead plastic fish? Wooden? Are they too teeny tiny to enjoy?"

"No! No! No!", said Rainbow,"We just don't have enough of them in our refrigerator."

"Yes, that's because we buy our fish at the beginning of the week and by the middle of the week, we've eaten all the fish!", said Posie.

"Yes, so...", said Rainbow, "lets fix that problem"

"How?", asked Posie, "What did you have in mind?"

"Well, I thought that we could go and learn how to fish!"

"Wow, that's a great idea. Where should we go?"

"Hmm...Well, I know that sea otter knows how to fish. Let's go ask him.", said Rainbow.

"Okay! Let's go", said Posie.

So, they gathered up everything they thought they'd need to go fishing. They grabbed rope, sticks, galoshes, soup, bread, candy, firecrackers, cookies and olive oil. Then they took those things and the sesame seeds to see Sea Otter.

"Sea otter!", said Rainbow, "Are you here?"

"Yes, I here!", said Sea Otter,"What can I do for you!"

"We need to learn how to fish.", said Posie.

"Okay, well....whoa!", said Sea Otter, who had fallen on a spot of olive oil that had dripped out of the bag.

"Wow! Sorry sea otter!", said Rainbow, "I thought we had tightened that up!"

But as she said that, Sea Otter stepped on a slippery dot of oil again and fell!

*crash* *boom* *kersplosh* *kersploosh*

That's the sound that was made when sea otter fell , hitting rainbow , which knocked over the bag full of stuff, which knocked over Posie, who fell onto Sea Otter, and then all the fireworks fell into Sea Otters warm, toasty, fire.

What happens when fireworks fall into a fire?

*pekaow* *boom* *phewue* *kerblam*

The whole forest could hear them going off, but what you don't realize is that thier rope and sticks had fallen in the water, and some fish who were very surprised by the fireworks didn't notice the sticks and ended up getting caught up in the rope!

"Rainbow! look!", said Posie.

"Wow! What a good teacher Sea Otter is! Look at all these fish!", said Rainbow.

"But I didn't do anything!", said Sea Otter.

"Sure you did Sea Otter", said Posie," if it weren't for you putting the fireworks on the fire, the fish never would have been distracted enough to get tangled up in our fishing gear! You are a GREAT fisherotterperson."

So, Sea Otter said,"Well, I guess so. But next time, leave the fireworks at home!!!"

The End

The Chase

"Yes, that's perfect", said Posie, "Well, maybe a little to the left."

Rainbow moved the picture of the pickle they saw on their recent trip to the pickle factory a bit to the left. They were trying to center the picture over their mantle.

Rainbow, walked a little to the left.

"A little more", said Posie, a mischievous grin on her face.

"Here?", said Rainbow.

"Nope, a little more...."

Rainbow walked a little more, and a little more and noticed there was a little wind. She looked down......to see....nothing! she had walked out the apartment onto the branch onto ....nothing at all!

She fell!

"Posie!", yelled Rainbow,"I'm going to get you!"

She put down the pickle picture and chased after the running Posie.

Posie was not just a prankster, but a very fast runner. She ran as fast as she could to the stream where sea otter lived.

Sea otter was famous for wearing orange hats and raincoats. You could barely see her under all that gear. Posie knew this and ran to sea otters drying lines behind her dam.

Posie pulled on the orange hat and raincoat and tied them off just as Rainbow came running up.

"Have you seen Posie?", said Rainbow, panting and clearly beside herself.

"Yes, I have!", said Posie,"Thataway!" pointing to the other side of the stream.

Rainbow -hated- water but swam through it to get to what she thought was Posie.

As she got to the other side, Posie took off the hat and raincoat and hollared out to Rainbow "Rainbow! Here I am!" and with a flash she ran off.

Rainbow was -very- unhappy to have gotten all wet when she though sea otter had told her to cross. But it wasn't sea otter at all, but POSIE!

Rainbow ran so fast across the water that she practically floated and walked upon the surface itself. She was -so- upset.

She caught to Posie in the clearing. When she was surprised to hear...

"SURPRISE!", said -everyone- in the forest.

It was Rainbows birthday! Posie was there and wrapped her in a towel, a warm, lovely towel and said "Rainbow, I'm sorry I tricked you , but I wanted to make your birthday something very special. So, let's eat!"

"Wow!", said Rainbow, "that was really something. Let's eat!"

The End

The Bookshelf was a Disaster!

Posie's bookshelf was a disaster.

Normally, it was quite tidy and neat, with one shelf for soft cover books. One shelf for golden books. One shelf for special books and one shelf for magazines.

But, that was not how it was today. It was ....a.....disaster.

Not the ordinary, run of the mill disaster, oh no, it was a total disaster. First off, half the books were not even on the shelf. They were on the couch, the bed, the floor, the table and Posie was very frustrated.

She knew Rainbow was to blame. She had left that morning and everything was in tip-top ship-shape . Now, she comes home and it was a -----disaster----.

What was she to do. Well, she knew that she had to talk to Rainbow about it.

Luckily, the door opened and through it, at just that moment, came Rainbow.

"Rainbow!", said Posie.

"Yes, wow! What a disaster!"

"Yes, I wanted to speak with you about that, Rainbow.", said Posie.

"What about?", said Rainbow.

"Did you make this mess?", said Posie.

"Goodness no! This is not just a mess, it's a disaster and I'd maybe make it a little untidy, but this ....well...this is just toooo much for me."

"Well, who did it then?", said Posie.

"Well, we did let elephant have a key. Maybe we should go ask him.", said Rainbow.

At that moment, there was an enormous crash from the bathroom!

Out came Elephant! Who had just used the bathroom, and do you know what Elephant said?

"What a disaster!", said Elephant!

"What!", said Rainbow.

"What!", said Posie," We thought that maybe you had done this."

"Oh no, I just stopped by to use your bathroom", said Elephant, "and it was fine when I got into the bathroom, and now...well...now it's a disaster!"

"Yes, but....", and that is when Rainbow, with her terrific, catlike sense of hearing heard.... flllluf....which as you know is the sound of a page being turned.

"Who was that!", said Rainbow and Posie.

"Just me! Sea otter!", said sea otter.

Now, not many know this, but sea otters love to read. And they read very fast and very very messily.

"Don't worry!", said sea otter, as a book bounced against rainbows nose, "That was a good book! I'll clean up when I'm done reading!" and another book went ....*bonk* against Posie's head and then two bounced off elephants ears, then another against his trunk. It was like a crazy book reading machine, sea otter was....

Indeed, sea otter did help to clean up though. And that, is , the end...

Elephant Learns to Juggle

One day, Elephant decided that he wanted to learn how to juggle. He only knew one person who knew how to Juggle. Do you know who that is?

That's right. Sea Otter. She is a fantastic juggler. She manages to juggle all kinds of things at once, even using her flippy, floppy tail to help out.

So Elephant set out to find Sea Otter to see if she would teach Elephant how to Juggle.

As Elephant walked along the stream, he called out "Sea otter! Sea otter! Are you there?"

And eventually, Sea Otter said "Yes, I'm here. What can I do for you Elephant?"

"Well, I need to learn how to juggle and you are the best juggler I know."

"Well, I'm pretty good, but you should meet my friend, the eggman. "

"The eggman?"

"Yes, the eggman. He can juggle eggs, big boxes of powdered sugar, honey and cats all at the same time."

"Cats!"

"Yes, he's very good at this and is a great teacher. However, he will only teach you if you loan him some cats to juggle for a day."

"Well, I guess I need to go find Rainbow and Posie.", said Elephant.

So elephant went and found Rainbow and Posie, who were at home.

"Rainbow, Posie?", said Elephant, "I have a favor to ask of you."

"What is it Elephant?"

"Well, you see, I'm interested in learning how to juggle."

"Oh no! Not the eggman! We've heard about him!"

"Yes, what do you say? Are you game."

"Well," Rainbow said with a sigh, "I guess it would be okay. Because we used to work for him , and being juggled is actually kind of fun."

"Oh, okay, let's go then.", said Elephant.

So they did, they went into town when Eggman had a juggling school.

"Welcome to my juggling school!", said Eggman. "I'm just finishing up my class."

Elephant looked over Eggman's shoulder to see a class of 5 or 6 animals juggling different things. Like eggs, glasses, christmas ornaments, porcelain dolls, and more.

"Wow! You look like you could really teach!"

"Yes, I'm the best. But I have a price......RAINBOW! POSIE! Did you come to be juggled?"

"Yes, we did, for our friend Elephant."

"Cool! Let's juggle."

Now, what's funny is not that he wanted to juggle cats. Which is not what he likes to do. He likes to juggle -with- cats. With everyone juggling. You see, cats are natural jugglers, and able to juggle from birth and they can juggle on their tails and ears and bottoms and everywhere.

So that's what they did, the juggled a lot. They juggled together, passing things back and forth between each other.

Then, elephant tried to juggle too. He hopped in between a very complicated egg, honey, candy and bowling pin juggle.

*BOOM* *CRASH* *KERPLOOSH!*

Elephant, Rainbow, Eggman and Posie were -covered- in honey, candy, powdered sugar and flour. It was a huge mess and took -forever- to clean up.

It was quite a mess, but with time, Elephant became a very good juggler.

The End.
