It's not easy.
Chapter one
Why can't we be friends?
Fiona was in the swamp trying to get the kids to go to sleep. Shrek was having a mud bath. They heard sounds of an argument. "Not again!" they thought as they ran to where it was coming from. Puss was fighting with Donkey again. Ever since the day they met, they were enemies. "You're not the top banana here senor!" Puss yelled as he lunged at Donkey with his sword but was stopped by someone.
"Time out! I can't believe you guys are still acting like that! We thought you guys were friends!" a voice said calmly. It was Shrek. "Hey cool off! We've got enough to deal with without you guys losing your heads!" he said as he took the sword in his hands and sheathed it. He then walked off with it. Puss and Donkey looked at each other staring daggers. "Enough! I've wasted enough time on you burro! I've got more important things to do." He growled as he back flipped onto a tree branch and disappeared.
Donkey scoffed at this. "That stuck up Latino hit man thinks he's so great but he's not! I know how to make him pay!" he said as he walked into the swamp house. Fiona saw the look in his eyes and was concerned. "Are you okay? You're up to something aren't you?" she said to him. He then walked into her and Shrek's bed room. Their twins were asleep and he smiled wickedly as he got an idea. He then grabbed one of them and dragged it out of it's cot. "I can't wait to see the trouble Puss gets into for this!" he thought as he took it to the Poison Apple Pub and put it in Puss's room. "This'll teach him not to mess with me!" he said as he got back to the swamp.
Fiona had realised one of the babies were missing and was upset. Shrek wondered what had happened. He then came into the room. "I know what might have happened. Puss came here and took it and it's in his room in the Poison Apple Pub." He told them. Shrek wondered how he knew this but saw a look of mischief in his eyes and realised what he'd done. "Donkey you wouldn't have anything to do with this, would you?" he asked curiously.
"I don't have anything to do with this. I figured that Puss would take it to the Poison Apple Pub because he could still be evil and just pretending he's gone good to gain our trust." He said. Later that night Puss snuck in with the baby. He was angry at Donkey for trying to get him into trouble. Shrek caught him doing it. "I can explain this! Donkey took him making it look like I did it but I was doing errands the whole day." He said to him. "It's okay, I believe you. I knew Donkey was lying about it." He said to him. "Thanks amigo. Le siento for the trouble this caused." He said as he left. Shrek shook his head as he came into the bed room and put the baby in the cot next to his sister. He then got an idea. "Where are you going?" Fiona asked him.
"I'm going to see a friend about our little… problem." He said as he walked out the door and into the forest. He had to stop Puss and Donkey before things went too far. He then came to a cave. "Come in!" a voice said. He then went in hoping to find a solution.
