Twin Trouble - Humanized
A request from magic135, hope you like it.
Donald and Douglas are Scottish twins; they're smart, strong and proud. They nearly always work together.
One day, Donald and Douglas were biking through the countryside, pulling a very heavy load of text books. Down the line, Trevor had been struggling to move a cart load of hay with his traction engine; crossing the road, the cart's wheels had broken off, then Trevor heard a whistle.
Trevor: Oh No!
Donald could see the cart.
Donald: STOP!
Donald pulled on his brakes, but it was too late. Donald crashed through the cart a landed in a ditch, luckily he wasn't injured.
Donald: Stop bein' pushy!
Douglas: Don't call me pushy!
Donald: You shouldna pushed me inna the cart!
Douglas: You pulled me inta it!
Donald: Did ne!
Douglas: Did!
Donald: Did no!
Douglas: Did to!
Before long, the road was cleared and Donald and Douglas were on their way, but the twins were so cross they refused to speak to each other for the rest of the day.
The next day, Sir Topham Hatt needed a student to help Duck stack some books at the library.
Donald: May I go sir?
STH: I only need one student not two.
Donald: Ah am only one student sir, and ah would like to work with Duck.
Sir Topham Hatt was surprised, but agreed.
Thomas was worried.
Thomas: Wouldn't you miss one another? I would miss Annie and Clarabel.
Douglas: I'll work better on ma own.
Donald: Ah have work ta do. *Walks away to the library*
At first, Donald enjoyed working with Duck, then things started to go wrong.
Donald: Did you stack those books on the other shelf?
Duck: You said you wanted them on the other shelf.
Donald: No that other shelf, the other other shelf. Douglas woulda known what ah meant.
Douglas was working on his own, he biked smoothly along the beautiful countryside, but Douglas had no one to share it with. Although he tries not to, he was beginning to miss his twin.
That night Donald was sleeping over at Duck's, Douglas came to see him.
Douglas: Ah was just passin' through.
Donald: Have you come ta say ya sorry?
This made Douglas very cross.
Douglas: Ah've nothin' ta be sorry fa!
And Douglas biked back to his home.
The next morning Donald was in a bad mood, Duck could see he was getting close to an unstable book shelf.
Duck: Look Out!
But it was too late, Donald bashed right into the book case and it fell over, pinning Donald under it.
The librarians were very cross.
Librarian: This wouldn't have happen if you were working with Douglas!
Donald knew he was right, and Duck knew he wasn't strong enough to get Donald out, so he went for help.
Douglas was sadly finishing his work, as Duck ran into the hallway.
Duck: Donald's in trouble!
Douglas: Dono in trouble! I'm on mah way!
And he sprinted as fast as he could to Donald. Douglas pulled and pushed as hard as he could, until he got his twin out from under the book shelf, he was relieved Donald wasn't hurt.
Donald: Thank you, and I'm sorry.
Douglas: No, I'm sorry.
Donald: I'm Sorry!
Duck: You don't have to have a row about who's sorry, just be glad you back together.
And they were.
The End
