Monocerous Sighting!

by Sharon Bohn

News-A-Roo: Hello! News-A-Roo here with GROUNDBREAKING NEWS! Today at precisely 4:20 PM, NeoPets owner Taki9 saw the dreaded MONOCEROUS!! Here she is now!

Taki : Hi. Is this live?

News-A-Roo: Describe the event, Taki, if you can.

Taki : Well, I was sitting there, grooming my Mynci, with the soap. He started shrieking so high and loud it hurt my ears. I turned to look, when out of nowhere came the...the Monocerous! It was so evil looking. Half bull, half horse, I've never seen it before and hope to never see it again.

News-A-Roo : And what did he do, ma'am?

Taki : He bellowed really loud saying, "I'm hungry...I've eaten 13 NeoPets this month!!!"

News-A-Roo : So this is truly serious. Tell us more ma'am, if you can bear it to relive it. What happened next, ma'am?

Taki : ......

News-A-Roo : Are you okay? I can leave now, if you wish.

Taki : .....Firesa, my JubJub, seemed to be immune to him. So she held him off long enough for me to gather up my Blumaroo, Chankya, my Mynci, Mykio, and Xazza, my Zafara. Then we ran as fast as our legs could carry us.

News-A-Roo : Anything else you wish to tell us before you get going?

Taki : Yes....I think everybody should be very careful. If it had not been for my JubJub, we might not have been here today. Try to watch where your pets go...I don't know where that horrifying beast is now or when it will strike again.

News-A-Roo : Yes, I must agree. Everyone keep your pets inside. Be sure to be extra careful, the Monocerous is running loose. If you see the animal, run as fast as you can and report to police IMMEADITLY! Thank you . For Channel One News, signing off this is News-A-Roo…
