The sky was blue and cloudless, and it was a perfect day to do anything else; however, Bennie the Salmon sat inside his house eating waffles drenched in syrup.

He felt that waffles were a normal thing to eat instead of grass tacos, as his friend Marty the Cow had said he should be more normal. "You're perfect," he whispered into the waffles, which thankfully did not respond.

After finishing his unresponsive breakfast, he put on his top hat and tuxedo, looked at his scaly green self in the mirror, and said, "Habamapamapa!" Then, the mirror swallowed him up and he was transported to Falunapuna.

You see, Falunapuna was the world. Instead of doors leading to people's houses, they had portals-whether they made the person enter through a mirror or window was the owner's choice.

Anyway, Bennie used his fishy legs to go to Marty's house. When he rang the doorbell, the large, circular door with a creepy smile on it swung open and a cow jumped on the fish.

"HELLO!" Marty screamed, though it sounded more like "HEWOO!" since all his words had a faint 'moo' sound to them. He was a cow, after all. "Marty," Bennie managed, "you're choking me."

"Oh... sorry." Marty let up, getting off a slightly squished Bennie. "Alright, come on in," the cow said.

But then, a mysterious voice came down from high above, accompanied by faint ukulele music: "BENNIE BENNISON," it said, "YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE UKULELE LAW AND HAVE BEEN SUMMONED BEFORE THE UKULELE COUNCIL. COME, MY FISHY FRIEND."

And Bennie the Salmon disappeared.
