Another original Jay-Jay story, this time it's "Herky's Tummy Trouble" Enjoy and comment.

It was a sunny day at Tarrytown Airport. Herky was relaxing in his hangar, when Jay-Jay came over.

"Want to try Brenda's new candy?" asked Jay-Jay.

"Do I ever!" exclaimed Herky.

And so, the two friends set off to find Brenda.

"Right on time!" said Brenda Blue when the two friends arrived.

"So, can we have some of your candy?" asked Jay-Jay.

"Of course." replied Brenda Blue. "Dig in!"

So Jay-Jay and Herky began eating the candy.

However, there was just one problem. Jay-Jay ate a moderate amount of candy, but Herky ate a lot, and I mean A LOT of candy.

After eating the candy, Jay-Jay went to deliver apples to Farmer Ben's farm, and Herky went back into his hangar, for a nice rest.

But when he woke up, he felt really sick.

"Oh dear." he groaned. "I'm sick."

Herky didn't know why he was sick, but he decided that he was going to go on with his day.

"I'm doing my jobs anyway!" he told himself as he flew away.

As he was flying in the clear blue sky, he saw Tracy.

"Hey Tracy." he said weakly.

"Herky? What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing." replied Herky, trying to cover up the fact that he was sick.

But Tracy instantly knew that Herky was sick.

"You're sick Herky." she said calm but sick. "You need rest."

"But I need to make these deliveries!" protested Herky.

"Rest is more important Herky." said Tracy.

Brenda Blue soon found out the news, and went over to see Herky in the hangar.

"You know why you're sick, right Herky?" she asked.

"I don't know Brenda." replied Herky.

"Because you ate too much candy."

Now Herky knew exactly why he was sick.

"I'm sorry Brenda." said Herky sadly,

"It's alright Herky, but you do need to rest, and start eating healthier food, like apples." explained Brenda Blue.

Herky had learned a very important lesson not to eat too much junk food, and eat more healthier food instead.
