Breakfast Surprise

Chapter 1: Early Morning Wake Up Call

It was quite early in the morning for Bikini Bottom local-Spongebob Squarepants as he was sound asleep, but what woke him up wasn't his usual alarm, it was some sort of a strange call he had never heard before, which spooked the sponge quite a bit even waking up his pet snail-Gary whom was sleeping on the floor next to his bed.

"Gary, did you just hear that?" asked Spongebob as he took a glance toward his pet snail.

"Meow" was all the snail's response.

"Hey Spongebob!" cried a familiar voice which belonged to Mr. Krabs'.

"Mr. Krabs, what the heck are you doing here so early, it's only about six o'clock" said Spongebob as he opened the window of his room and looked down below.

"Nonsense boy, I got a special assignment for you" continued Mr. Krabs, "now open up and let me enter your residence."

"I aye captain!" replied Spongebob as he rushed downstairs.

As Spongebob rushed downstairs, and opened the door for his boss, with some sort of strange sea creatures in some cages with him.

"Mr. Krabs, what the heck are those?" asked Spongebob as he noticed the strange creatures in the cages.

"Spongebob me boy, these are what we call Sea Chickens" replied Mr. Krabs as he handed Spongebob the cages, "I want you to take care of them before I announce my latest plan to make Plankton look like a fool."

"You mean I have to take care of whatever these Sea Chickens are?" asked Spongebob.

"Yes, Farmer Jenkins' price in taking care of these sea chickens were too expensive for my taste, giving them to an employee like you would be right up your alley" replied Mr. Krabs.

"What about Squidward?" asked Spongebob.

"Good idea, you can wake him up and he can help you out too" added Mr. Krabs as he was leaving, "well, I got to go and Squidward up, I'm sure he'll help you out."

Back at Squidward's house, Squidward was still sound asleep having his usual dreams such as being a wonderful clarinet player when reality was certainly not. When suddenly, Squidward heard a disturbing sound every time he placed his mouth on his clarinet in the dream. The sound was quite abnormal for him, but as he woke up he found Spongebob right beside his bed with some strange creatures in a cage with him.

"Hi Squidward!" shouted Spongebob with joy.

"Spongebob, what the heck are you doing in my house again?!" cried Squidward.

"I found a spare key you always keep outside your house" replied Spongebob as he chuckled a bit.

"Give me that!" cried Squidward as he grabbed the spare key away from Spongebob, "Now please, get those horrible creatures out of my house as well. They seem worse than your snail Gary."

"Oh come on, these are sea chickens you silly" said Spongebob, "Mr. Krabs brought them to me, he said you would help out."

"I'm certainly not, these creatures belong in a barnyard!" cried Squidward.

"He also said that was a bit expensive as well" added Spongebob.

"You mean we're going to have to take care of these sea chickens?!" cried Squidward.

"Yep, that's what Mr. Krabs said" replied Spongebob.

"Then forget it" said Squidward as he got out of his bed and headed for the shower, "now if you don't mind Spongebob, I need to get ready to go to work."

"Hmm, if Squidward won't help me take care of these sea chickens, maybe Patrick would" thought Spongebob to himself, "I'll go see what he can do."

A few minutes later, Spongebob had arrived at Patrick's rock, where he calmly knocked on the rock. After the rock was lifted up, Patrick was still sound asleep on the rock. But after the rock was well lifted up, Patrick fell right down from the rock onto the sand and noticed Spongebob was up quite early.

"Hey Spongebob, do you mind, some people are trying to get their beauty sleep here" said Patrick to which he didn't seem to have a hint of image of beauty whatsoever.

"Patrick, buddy, I need your help" said Spongebob to which Patrick then noticed the sea chickens being cooped up in the cages Spongebob was struggling to carry.

"Are those sea chickens?" asked Patrick as he rushed over to his sponge friend's side.

"Why yes they are buddy" replied Spongebob.

"Oh boy, can I keep some of them" begged Patrick, "please, please, please I always wanted a pet like this."

"I'm sorry, but these sea chickens are needed for some job at the Krusty Krab" replied Spongebob.

"Can I at least help out with whatever the big red, sweaty guy you work for has for these sea chickens?" asked Patrick.

"Sure Pat, I'm sure Mr. Krabs wouldn't mind a bit" replied Spongebob, "come on, let's go build a chicken coup for these sea chickens."

"You got it buddy" replied Patrick.

Meanwhile, while Spongebob and Patrick were taking care of the sea chickens Mr. Krabs had given Spongebob earlier, a certain small, yet evil villain known as Plankton was just waking up at the Chum Bucket to see what he was going to do for today's agenda.

"Good morning sweety" said Karen, Plankton's computer wife as she lowered her computer face, which was on a screen to Plankton as he got out of bed.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm getting up" replied Plankton in his usual grumpy mood to which he then heard some sort of a strange cry, "say what the heck was that sound, are your wires on the fritz again?"

"No dear, that didn't come from me, I don't have any sea chicken sounds installed on my program" replied Karen.

"Well, where did it originate from?" asked Plankton.

"The mini-spy satellite you had launched earlier should pick it up" replied Karen to which the computer screen then switched to what seemed like Spongebob and Patrick building some sort of a chicken shed for some sea chickens whom were cooped up in cages.

"Well, that isn't so surprising, I always knew those two would be a bunch of chickens" laughed Plankton.

"Wow, isn't this great Patrick" said Spongebob who didn't know he was being watched by Plankton, "Mr. Krabs wants us to keep a close eye on these sea chickens. He says he has some sort of a surprise."

"Yeah, I hope it's something new to be added to his menu, no offense Spongebob, but I think the Krabby Patty still needs room for improvement" continued Patrick.

"What?!" cried Plankton as he turned off the computer screen and began to get really steamed up, "Mr. Krabs has another secret recipe, I never got to know what was in the first one?!"

"Well, I'm sure if you want to get ahead of him first, you may wish to find out what those sea chickens are being used for" replied Karen.

"Hmm, now that you mention it I do see scrambled eggs going well with a Krabby Patty, maybe it'll help my Chubby Joe recipe out, then I will be the one who'll have a breakfast menu, and the people of Bikini Bottom shall come to me!" laughed Plankton.

"Less talking, and more action, get to it genius" said Karen.

"Oh, I will, I will" laughed Plankton as he left the scene.
