As we previously covered, it was a time of unrest for The Bed. Nora was concerned evil factions wanted her throne. Pito, the Mighty was eating oats, cause that's what llamas do.
Over a late lunch, Pito had listened to Nora's rantings and just decided she was hallucinating and crazy.
It was in the middle of a particularly tasty brownie that Pito saw a young duckling. It had a sweet face and was watching Pito eat his brownie. Just as the llama was about to ask the waiter to help the child find it's mother, the duckling took out what Pito thought was a straw.
As he watched, the duckling lifted the straw to it's beak and took a deep breath. In that instant Pito's thought was, "That's not how you use a straw."
His next thought was, "Where's that duckling's glass of milk?"
Then his thought was, "Duck!" which he shouted at Nora.
"Where?" Nora asked as she started to turn to see the duck.
Pito tackled the lion, rolling them both to safety behind another table as the poisoned dart the duckling shot at Nora landed in Nora's chair.
"Pito! You messed up my dress," Nora whined.
"Later, some duckling just tried to kill you," Pito said as he stood and raced toward the Maitre D stand, only to find a note.
On one side it read:
Your rule will end!!!
On the other was a grocery list.
Peanuts
Peanut butter
Wheat grass
Peanut butter cookies
Something the llamas like
Pito put the note in his pocket. There was only one animal who could be so cruel and evil as to try and bribe the llamas.
Evil Emperoress Elsie!
Until next time, be ever attentive!
