The Creation of the Animals

"Ok everyone, the creation of the earth is happening." the gods buzzed with excitement.

"Yes yes, quiet down, as you know each of us has a part in it and today we are working on."The god of business looked down at his clipboard and ruffled some papers.

"An-A-mails"

The god of Curiosity raised his hand.

"Yes Curiosity?"

"What's a an-e-mill?"

"They are beasts that will share the earth with man."

"Oh,"

"Any more questions?" asked business waiting for a moment, "Ok good, let's start."

He flipped through the papers and then sat down allowing others to come up and propose their ideas.

The goddess of happiness jumped up excitedly shuffling from foot to foot.

"I think there should be some animals completely covered in fur."

Business nodded and wrote something down,happiness then hopped back to her seat.The goddess of fashion struted up, checked her hair then proceeded to speak.

"I think there should be some called birds that are covered in beautiful feathers that can fly,but some can't and they won't give birth to life young,they will lay eggs."

Curiosity raised a hand.

"Yes," said fashion

"Why can't some fly?"

"Because," she said. Striking a pose, "they lack beauty."

The gods looked around at each other in confusion. She walked back to her seat and sat back down.

Happiness jumped up again,

"I want mine to lay eggs too."

"Sorry but fashion already took that idea," said business.

"Please please please," said Happiness

Business sighed,

"Fine, you can have one."

Happiness jumped back down into her seat.then the god of comedy came up.

"I want there to be an animal that is small, makes food out of spit,looks soft all over but has one sharp part called a stinger,and is so fat it looks like it would be impossible for it to fly but it flies anyway." he said, bursting into giggling fit.

Business rolled his eyes.

"I'll think about it," he said. writing something down on his clipboard,and motioning for comedy to sit down.

The god of fear hobbled up next,eyes darting from side to side.

"I believe there should be some animals that strike fear into the humans,small crawling creatures with poison in their fangs,long green ones with no legs and poison in their fangs,and huge furry ones with claws and-"

"Let me guess," said Business.sarcastically "Poison in its fangs?"

"No," he replied. "Jaws so big they could rip your head off,oh and the oceans need to be full of these dangerous animals so full of them you can't even look at them without perishing."

"Okay you can sit down now," said business.

"But i'm not done yet,there needs to be ones that eat souls and turn humans inside out and-"

'NO," said business, sternly.

"But but,"

"SIT DOWN," he said. Floating 5ft above the ground.

"And they made me the god of fear," he mumbled. As he wobbled back to his seat.

"Does anyone else want to suggest anything?" asked business.

The gods looked at one another,waiting for another person to come up.They all waited for a long time to see if someone would come up.

"Ok I think we are done here,you all can go home,"

The gods left back to their homes above the earth which was covered in swerling colors waiting to be put together.
