     Jak had told Ham and Grits a little bit about himself. To start off, one day, he and his sister, Jil, went to fetch a pail of water. But when they came close to the top, the ground shook, and Jak fell down, making a frown, but when Jil came tumbling after, she had a concussion and, unfortunately, died. So, ever since then, Jak had trained himself to be a survivalist of the fittest, which answered why he had a tent, frying pan, and sleeping bags in his backpack. He also found out the giants were the ones who had shook the ground that day, and swore to kill at least one of them. But, he hasn't been so successful. After a year had passed, Jak was tracking down a way to reach the heavens where the giants hide themselves, when he found a magic green bean, but he didn't believe it, so he ate it. Two to four hours had passed, and when Jak used the 'latrine', a gigantic bean stalk burst out of the ground. It barely missed him. Jak climbed to the top and reached the cloudy kingdom he tried so many times to reach. He saw a giant castle and went inside, soon finding a tiny, little, golden humming bird that laid eggs about the size of bowling balls, a beautiful harp that made the most atrocious sounds, and a giant that knew he was there before he even went into the castle.

     Anyway, Jak had zipped down the bean stalk, the giant fell to the ground, and that's how he got here. "We need to find a way to slay the giant.", Jak said. "If we could find a way up him, we could climb to the top. But if he sees us, we're done for." "There is no way I'm killing a giant.", said Blue Bell. "I'm leaving." As soon as she stood up, the giant roared, "FE FI FO FUM, JAK, YOU'LL PAY FOR TAKING MY HUM!" Blue Bell ran into the tent and said, "On second thought, I'll stay here." Ham and Grits tried to help, but didn't know how to help. "How 'bout we trip 'em?", said Grits "Hmm...", said Jak, "That could work."
