Missing Mommy Mystery

 

Transcript:
            

One day a snake and her mommy were out walking through the park. The sky was clear, the birds were singing in the trees (They would make a nice meal for a snake!), the day was perfect (at least for the moment). Then, a thunderstorm struck. It caught everyone by surprise. Panic broke out and between the sheets of rain, the snake couldn't see her mommy. She was lost! She found a log and curled up inside it. She fell asleep listening to rain falling on the log.

 The following day Anti was walking in the park. He saw a log and thought ants might be living in it. Unfortunately there were no ants in the log, but he did find a sleeping snake who was crying for her mommy. The snake woke and asked, "Is it done yet?!!". "What are talking about?", asked Anti, "And what is your name?". So the snake had no choice but to tell her tale to Anti who nodded reassuringly. She said her name was "Tailed". Anti said "Please to meet you, Tailed. I'm Anti!". "Can you help me find my mom, Anti?", asked Tailed. So they looked.

And looked, and looked, and looked. The mommy snake wasn't at home, the store, somewhere in the park, or at the police office. Where could she be?!! They literally looked everywhere, well almost everywhere. They did not look around or in a strange, private lake that was owned by an old bunny who claimed to be a wizard but was considered insane. They didn't look there because of the mysterious sawing noise and the screams of pain. "Wow, I don't want to be cut in half! It might hurt a lot!" said Tailed, wincing. "I agree!" exclaimed Anti.

Luckily, Anti liked to build robots that took the form of animals, from antelopes to zebras. He built a tiny frog to scout out the lake and look for a creature of the mommy snake's description. The frog scouted out the lake and it was the same as any other lake except it was red. The frog did not find the mommy snake because its battery mysteriously failed. Now knowing that nothing was going to 'happen' to them, such as being cut in half or eaten, made Tailed and Anti feel a lot better, but Anti was still worried about what happened to the robot frog. "What if the same thing happened to us?" he reasoned. "How would it happen? We don't have a battery." said Tailed. Anti said, "I guess you're right, Tailed.". So, off they went in search of the missing mommy snake.

At that moment the mommy snake was trapped in a cave that had scary pictures in it. The pictures were of lots and lots of…Owls! Poor snake.

Anti and Tailed were listening to scared hissing sounds coming from a cave covered in rocks. Suddenly Tailed exclaimed, "That's my mom!". "That's your mom in there! Oh, dear! Oh, dear!" said Anti, "To the house!". "Why the house, Anti?" asked Tailed. "So I can get my inflatable bulldozer, of course!" said Anti. After they had gotten the bulldozer they went back to the covered cave and moved the rocks covering the entrance to the cave. After the rocks were removed, a snake looked up, shocked to find that her daughter was with an anteater with a bulldozer. The mommy snake said, "I've been waiting for a long time for somebody to save me from this cave full of owl pictures, but was not expecting you two to save me!". "Momma!" cried Tailed "We looked all over for you!". The snake said "Who is that with you, Tailed?". Tailed said "It's Anti, Momma!". "Hello, Anti. Pleased to meet you." said the mommy snake. Anti, Tailed, and the mommy snake ran or slithered into the sunset, laughing about what had happened to them after they had been separated. The End

  2. Aaron,
    Oh that was such a good story! You put so much work in to it. The "puppets" if you will, were very creative. I loved it and so did Anna, Brooke and Dylan. I can't wait to read more of your stories.
    Love,
