Larry the walrus
It was any other day in the North pole, and Larry, a purple walrus, with tusks 3.6 ft long, was swimming in the water looking for food. When Larry went to surface, something terrible happened. Above Larry was a seven inches of solid ice, stretching over three miles. Larry knew that he was in trouble. Larry tried to break the ice by pushing it, slamming it, and scratching it. But it just was too thick. Larry felt the last air bubble leave his lungs, and he could feel the darkness creeping in. He asked him self,”is this the end?”
Three months later…
Larry felt warmth coming to his body and he was actually hot for the first time. He could acutely see light, and he heard a squeaky voice cry out, “Look mommy look, it’s a Woopwrus!”
Before he had a chance to think, he was hit in the eye with a peanut. Larry blinked and then he was hit with another one in the other eye. Through blurry eyes, he looked around to see where the peanuts came from and who was throwing them at him. Instead of finding the peanut tosser, he notice a big sign above the wall that blocked him in. The sign read, The World Famous, San Diego Zoo.
“Oh no !”, cried Larry, “This can’t be … I must have died and gone to Hell.” In fact, Larry was not dead. He was alive and well. He was now a guest of the San Diego Zoo. To make matters worse, Larry noticed his reflection in the deep puddles his tears had created, and he was mortified to see his beautiful long tusks were missing. “Oh no, my lucky lady catchers are gone”, he whispered. Just then he was hit in the eye with another peanut and he realized he was not dead, he was a prisoner in the dreaded San Diego Zoo.
Larry had heard stories about this place from a couple of other walrus’s he met last summer while hunting for food. They had warned him about hunting ships that collect the weak and injured animals they find in the arctic. Obviously, Larry was found by them when he was trapped under the ice. Larry gathered his senses and decided that the San Diego Zoo was not going to keep him, and he would have to plan his escape.
That night, Larry hid by the security door and waited for someone to come in for his night time feeding. He heard footsteps heading towards his door and a husky voice cried out, “Dinner time you fat lump of lard.” Before the man could get out another word, Larry made his move. “WhooooooooooAAAhhhhhhhh, KaaaKaaaChaaaaa!”, howled Larry as he put on his special Ninja moves. He learned them at the North Pole, to defend against the Great White sharks and Killer whales. When the smoked cleared, Larry stared at the man that should have ben blown to pieces by his onslaught. The man was still standing in front of him with a wide open mouth and eyes. He appeared to be frozen in time. Larry let out a grand burp … and the man collapsed to the floor. Larry grabbed the mans keys with his thick whiskers and headed for the main gate.
Three weeks later, Larry was relaxing in the warm tropical waters of Cancun, Mexico. His tusks were growing back in and his purple skin was getting a golden tint. The fake mustache and beard he glued on to aid his escape from San Diego were finally starting to wear off. Just then his eyes caught noticed the girl of his dreams getting in the water by him. She was big and beautiful. She had course dark hair on her cheeks. She had big brown eyes and she was looking straight at him with those giant white teeth. She even looked good in that strange one piece swim suit with a yellow inner tube around her waist. She waded out to Larry and screamed at the top of her lungs,”Look everybody, look, It’s a Woopwrus!
Larry went Ninja on her.
The end!
