Hello! This is a story that my sister wrote. We both came up with the idea one random day. I hope you like it! (I've written an epilogue for it)
"Aargh!"
Yuri sat up straight. He didn't know if it was possible, but for some reason, that sounded strangely like a...
...potato.
******
"YURI!"
"What?" Yuri rolled over sleepily and sat up.
"HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO SLEEP YOU...."
"I'm coming, Wolfram, stop yelling already!" He got up, yawned, stretched, and got dressed. He was feeling really sleepy. Potatoes had been haunting his dreams. In one of them, he was being chased by a giant potato that kept calling him a wimp, and he ran into a dead end, and then the potato breathed fire, but it(the fire) stopped right in front of him, turned around, and COOKED the potato. Conrad appeared out of no where and tasted it. He said it was delicious. The other dream...he didn't want to think about it.
"Heika!"
"Good Morning Everyone,"
"Oh, Heika! You took such a long time! I thought..." Gunter's voice trailed off.
Yuri sat down. "Geez, I'm hungry! What's for breakfast?"
"Baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes, sliced potatoes, steamed potatoes, half-boiled potatoes, fried potatoes,...Heika, is something wrong?" Conrad looked at Yuri's horrified face.
"Nn..No...It's nothing," Yuri replied.
"Are you sure?"
"Seriously, it's nothing," he began to pile his plate with potatoes. Potatoes. What was with those dreadful potatoes? No one else seemed to find it peculiar. Well, DUH! They weren't the ones to wake up in the middle of the night to hear a potato screaming. Theyweren't the ones who had their dreams being haunted by nothing but potatoes for three dys. And now he had a whole bunch of them for breakfast. Ugh!
"Oh Heika. You have to finish some paper work you neglected yesterday." Gwendal announced.
"Yeah, okay..." First potatoes, and now paperwork. Maybe today was being cursed by the letter 'P'?
After a 'Marvelous' breakfast, he dragged himself upstairs to finish his paperwork. For a change, he decided to read some of the papers he was signing. After he did, he found out he shouldn't have.
'I, Yuri Shibuya, 27th Maoh of Shin Makoku hereby declare that after three years, all of Shin Makoku's potatoes will be given to Big Shimaron.' Yuri gaped. He skipped it, and picked up the next one.
'I, Yuri Shibuya, 27th Maoh of Shin Makoku hereby declare that in Shin Makoku the 26th of December will be celebrated as National Potato Day.' He skipped that one too, and reached for the next one.
'I, Yuri Shibuya, 27th Maoh of Shin Makoku hereby declare that for one year the citizens of the great and Noble country, Shin Makoku, must have nothing but potatoes for breakfast.' Yuri screamed and fled. Gwendal turned around (He was in the room too) .
"Hmph. He ran out on his paperwork again."

For once, Yuri was looking forward to Gunter's lessons. He didn't know why. He just felt like it would be a distraction. From what? Potatoes? If he had thought it would be a distraction, from potatoes (Which he did), he was wrong.
"Ah, The history of the Magnificent house of Potatoes is extremely interesting!" Gunter's eyes turned dreamy. "First, you have the Palaeolithic Potatoes, which are dark-brown, with light-brown spots, and then the Mesolithic Potatoes, which are..."
Yuri screamed again, and ran out the door. He didn't notice the two people who were standing outside when he ran. He just wanted to get away from those dreadful potatoes. The two people (being Murata and Shinou) turned around. That is, Murata turned around with Shinou on his shoulder.
"Maybe you went a bit too far..."
Shinou shrugged, "Perhaps."
Thankyou for reading! Please review.
P.S. If my sister joins this site, I'll give the story back to her.
