The story I'm about to tell you is true. It happened a couple weeks ago. Three
of my pets, Meghanmoomoo, a red Kyrii who is the oldest of my pets, TerraForce90210,
a green Shoyru who is second oldest, and LittleRenamon, a green Wocky who is
third oldest, were talking about a camping trip. They begged me to let them
go on a camping trip with their friend, Toomo234, in the Haunted Woods. At first,
I didn't approve of this. But later, LittleRenamon came up to me and made her
sad "Puppy Eyes" at me.
I couldn't say no.
"YAY!" they screamed as I got their backpacks out. Casie_mon273, a lovely young
blue Korbat, must have overheard the shouts of joy. She was the youngest of
my NeoPets. She flew into the room and said, "What's going on?"
"Oh," said TerraForce90210, "Rika said we can go on a camping trip with Toomo234!
We're going to Haunted Woods! That place is haunted, you know."
"Duh, it's haunted. Maybe that's why they call it Haunted Woods," said LittleRenamon
sarcastically.
"Mummy, can I go?" said Casie_mon273.
"Don't let her go, Mum, she's to young. She, uh, might burn herself in our
campfire!" said Meghanmoomoo. His Puppyblew barked in agreement.
"You just don't want me to go!" cried Casie_mon273, tears streaming down her
face.
"No, it's nothing like that," I said, "I just don't want you getting hurt,
that's all. Maybe when your older."
With that, Casie_mon273 flew into the living room crying, "I hate being the
youngest!"
I felt sad. I was about to go into the room to cheer her up when the phone
rang. I picked it up and said, "Hello? This is Rika"
"Oh, hi!" came Toomo234's voice, "Can I speak to TerraForce90210?"
I gave the phone to TerraForce90210. He talked to Toomo234 for what seemed
like eternity when he finally hung up. "We're leaving now to go camping. Toomo234
told me to meet her by the Rainbow Pool. She's bringing marshmallows!" shouted
TerraForce90210 as cheers arose from Meghanmoomoo and LittleRenamon.
They grabbed the tent and ran out the door. I went into the living room. Casie_mon273
was sitting on the couch, crying her eyes out. I went over to her and said,
"Casie_mon273, I'm sorry you couldn't go camping. I don't want you getting hurt.
You brothers and sister are much older than you. They can take care of themselves."
"It's not fair," she shouted, "I hate being the youngest. I hate it! If you
really loved me, than you'd let me go with them!"
Before I could say anything else, she jumped out of my arms, flew upstairs
to her room, and slammed the door shut. I felt horrible. I didn't want Casie_mon273
to feel sad. I sat on the couch and stared at the ceiling.
Meanwhile, Casie_mon273 was in her room, still crying. "It's just not fair!"
she shouted, "Why can't I go camping?"
She hung upside-down and looked across the room. The window! she thought,
I can fly to the Haunted Woods! She jumped off her perch, first grabbing her
Sparkshooter and snowballs, and flew towards the window. She opened it and flew
outside. When she got out, she noticed it was raining, but not that hard. She
flew towards the Rainbow Pool, wondering if she had done the right thing. She
swooped down and landed by the Money Tree. She quietly tiptoed to the pool.
They're not here, she thought, they must have already left for the Haunted Woods.
She flew higher. The wind blew and Casie_mon273 shivered. She flew for hours
until she saw something. It was like a shadow moving across the ground. When
she squinted, she could make out what it was. "THE SHADOW USUL!" she cried,
"And it's heading for the Haunted Woods!" she kept flying, trying to keep up
with the Usul. But she accidentally dropped one of snowballs. The Peach Snowball
fell and landed right on top of the Shadow Usul's head! The Usul looked up and
made an angry noise. Then it ran towards Haunted Woods. "Oh no, my brothers
and sister are camping there!" shouted Casie_mon273, "I have to warn them!"
She flew like lightning towards the direction where TerraForce's tent was. She
swooped down and and knocked on the tent's door. LittleRenamon popped her head
out. "Casie_mon?" she exclaimed.
"I don't have time to explain," said Casie_mon273, "The Shadow Usul's coming!"
"I thought someone destroyed the Shadow Usul!" said Meghanmoomoo.
Suddenly, the bushes wiggled and out jumped the Shadow Usul.
"This place is haunted!" screamed TerraForce90210.
Casie_mon picked up her Wet Snowball and swiftly hurtled it towards the Shadow
Usul. But the snowball just shattered into tiny pieces in front of it.
"OH NO!" cried LittleRenamon, "We're out in the middle of nowhere and a ghost
is here! What do we do???"
Determined, Casie_mon273 took out her Sparkshooter and aimed it at the Usul.
She shot it and sparks flew everywhere. The Shadow Usul (or its ghost) disappeared.
"Woah!" said Meghanmoomoo, "Casie_mon273, you saved our lives!"
"I did?" exclaimed Casie_Mon.
"Yeah," said TerraForce90210, "You can come camping with us anytime! Now, who
wants some roasted marshmallows?"
