Oft strolled through cheery cactus grove went Zappo our young hero, showed peacefully contentment. A broken shell of Elephant Bird across his path became. His eyes and ears alerted up. His nose a-twitchy raised to the wind. He saw them leave their silver ship; he saw their mutant hatching. He heard their evil plans for dogs and beasts. He said, 'I shall not fear these fiends from Planet Mars, they are but chickens'. He wished he hadn't for every single chicken turned to where he stood, and hoisted up their fearsome weapons. With nothing left to do, he jammed the broken egg shell on his head. The confusion reigned for half a tick and while he ran away, a thousand flaming bolts of fire burst all around his tail.
