Iced Gingerbread

Chapter 1

Chad and Jeremy were out taking a walk with Brer Rabbit and Brer Bear. 

They'd been outside for hours and they had no idea where they were.

"Are you ready to admit it, Chad the lad?" said Jeremy.

"We are not lost. We're... exploring!" said Chad.

"Fo fahv owas?" said Brer Rabbit.

"In complete circles?" said Jeremy.

"I'd know exactly where we are if Brer Bear hadn't eaten our map" Chad sighed. 

"Again! I thot it wuz a candy wrapper" said Brer Bear.

"Again! Dat don't explain it!" Brer Rabbit sassed.

"Don't quarrel now, fellas. There's a cabin up ahead. Maybe there's someone who can help us not die out here" said Jeremy.

The guys approached the cabin and saw a ton of signs that call guests off.

"Blimey. Look at all these signs" said Chad.

"No trespassing" Jeremy read.

"Seriously, go away" Brer Bear read.

"What is you still doin' heeah?" Brer Rabbit read.

"Fellas, I can lead us back to the mountain. Trust me" said Chad.

"Ya lost ma trust fo' owas ago, Brer Chad" Brer Rabbit sassed.

Jeremy knocked on the door. 

"No one's home!" a raspy voice snapped.

"Great. No one's home. Now what do we do?" said Brer Bear.

"Uh, sir? We're just hoping for some directions back to Splash Mountain?" said Jeremy.

An old man answered the door with an angry look on his face.

"You guys ain't kids, but you're young. That's it. I'm putting up a barbed wire fence" he said.

"We're so sorry for bothering you, sir. We'll go back to our exploring" said Chad.

"We're lost" Jeremy interrupted.

"And in desp'rate need o' wattah" said Brer Rabbit.

"Wit' ice. And if you can throw in some froot wedges, dat'd be grate" said Brer Bear.

"We're not in a bar, Brer Bear" Chad whispered.

"You can drink from the hose if you promise to get outta here. Your mountain's that way" said the old man.

"Dare's a seventy-foot cliff ova dayah" said Brer Rabbit.

"Ha! So you caught me. It's the other way" said the old man.
