It was late afternoon in the jungle of nool, in the heat of the day in the cool of the pool. Not even a splash or a noise to be heard not even a wickersham throwing a turd.
There were birds who were girls and girls who were birds that were perched on the trees without singing a word.
The animals of the jungle sat around all day, even the sour kangaroo had nothing to say.
"It's quiet here, too quiet." Wickersham 3 said
"Yeah you'd think with The Who's here it wouldn't feel so dead." Wickersham 2 agreed
(Bitch i give up on rhyming)
"I don't know guys I think we've had our fun, the bounty is over, can't we rest and be done?" Wickersham 1 tried to reason, but it seemed like no use, to cause trouble the siblings would make any excuse.
(Okay I'm seriously done this time)
Wickersham 3 rolled his eyes and tore a sharp branch from a tree
"Do you think I could use this to cut Hortons knee?"
"What?" asked Wickersham 2 "why would you want to do that?"
Without answering he looked to the pool where Horton sat.
(Okay okay for real I'm done only because it's 2am and I genuinely can't think of any more good ones)
The three monkeys peered over a bush at Horton. As much as they wanted to try and change their ways, they were monkeys at heart and the jungle was getting a bit dull. They needed to stir up some trouble.
"You can go, but count me out," wick 1 started
"Yeah sorry but im gonna stay back this time" Said wick 2
"Fine Fine I'll do all the work then, but I get full credit for this." Wickersham 3 said stepping over the bush and creeping to the pool.
He nearly got sprayed with water from hortons trunk as he tried lining up strait for the kneecaps. The other two monkeys watched from the bush in anticipation. He lifted the makeshift knife in the air and jabbed it into the elephants knee to which he let out a sharp yell in pain. Wick 1 and 2 giggled to themselves watching Horton flail around but their laughter was brought to an unexpected halt when they heard a loud crunch followed by the screaming of a nearby girl bird.
The animals came rushing towards the loud sound and they saw the poor bird girl with no one around
Her wing was out stretched pointing down towards the pool
There had been a murder in the jungle of nool!
