Kook The Comic

Another quiet morning in the Splatalot castle, the defenders were off duty and Kook was on his own, Kook was sat by himself on the castle battlements.

"I'm bored." he thought.

There was never anything to do on such a quiet, lazy day like this...then Kook got the best idea ever, the jumped down and sneaked back inside, he hadn't done anything like this for a long time.

Kook sneaked past the defenders lounge where everyone was currently hanging out, and went all the way to Gildar's room, this was going to be so worth it, he found Gildar's favourite hairbrush and sprinkled a pinch of his special super-itchy-itching powder on top.

"I can't wait to see Gildar's face later." Kook thought as he sneaked back out.

But Kook wasn't finished yet, he continued to walk down the corridor to Skabb's room, using an air horn and some tape, as accurately as he could he taped to horn to the wall, Skabb always flings the door back, that will give him a real surprise.

"Let's see how fearless Skabb really is."

Kook could hear some footsteps coming towards him down the corridor, it might be Skabb, he does normally come back to his room round about now, Kook quickly hid himself out of sight and watched as Skabb flung the door back.

"Agh! What the...?" Skabb yelled as the horn blared out.

"Hee hee." Kook sniggered before sneaking off again, this has been the best day ever for Kook in a long time.

Kook couldn't stop sniggering, what will it be like when Gildar finds his "surprise"?

"KOOK!" A familiar voice shouted.

"That'll be Gildar."

Kook was eager to see what was going on, maybe it won't have worked as well as he thought, the itching powder was quite visible on the brush, hopefully Gildar didn't notice it.

Gildar hadn't noticed the powder, Kook almost burst out with laughter when he saw Gildar, he was furiously scratching his head.

"What's wrong Gildar? Are you feeling a bit...itchy?"

"I knew that you'd have something to do with this, I'm gonna get you this time."

"Good luck with that."

The rest of the defenders knew that this time Kook has gone a bit too far and this has been going on for too long, something had to be done about this, and it had to be done now, Knightriss arranged for a meeting with the defenders apart from Kook.

"I think that we can all agree that Kook's pranks are getting out of hand." she said.

"I'm sick of it." Gildar explained.

"Does anyone have any suggestions on what we should do?"

"Well we can't kick him out, that's too harsh." said Shaiden.

"Too harsh?" Gildar replied. "What about all the things he's done to me?"

"Shaiden's right Gildar, no matter how annoying Kook must be, no one deserves to be kicked out for a couple of harmless pranks."

"We could give him a taste of his own medicine." Ballista suggested.

"You mean, play some of our own pranks on him and see how he likes it?" said Thorne.

"Exactly."

"Great idea."

"All those in favour?"

Everyone raised their hands, Kook was in deep trouble now.

"So what are we going to do?" Vane asked.

"Well before we talk about that could you just wait until I get this stuff washed out of my hair?"

After a couple of hours of planning, the prank was decided on, Gildar, Thorne, Skabb, Ballista and Shaiden were the ones in charge, the ones who were going to be getting the whole prank together.

"Okay, is everyone ready?" Gildar asked.

"Yep."

"Me and Thorne will take care of the bed prank, Ballista, Shaiden, you can see to the sofa prank, and Skabb you're in charge of the grand finale."

"Good luck everyone." said Thorne.

Gildar and Thorne quickly went to Kook's room, Kook was currently out for a walk, he was going to be about an hour, that was plenty of time to get everything ready.

"So what's the plan?" Thorne asked as they walked inside.

"I'm going to put this inflatable pool in his nest then we're going to fill it with water." Gildar explained.

"Then when we put his sheets on top and he comes for a lie down..."

"He's going to get a very wet surprise."

Gildar lined the nest with the pool while Thorne connected the hose to the sink tap in Kook's bathroom.

"What about the girls?" he asked.

"They're going to hollow out the sofa, then one of them is going to hide inside and surprise Kook when he walks in looking for us."

"Then Skabb comes over with the bucket of slime."

"Exactly, the ultimate prank."

They filled up the pool and stretched Kook's bedsheet over to hide it from sight, there was about ten to twenty minutes before Kook got back, this task had been completed, so Gildar and Thorne went to check on the girls, see how they were doing.

"How are you doing with that girls?" Gildar asked.

"We've nearly finished." Ballista replied.

"Could you do with a hand?" Thorne offered.

"No, we're alright."

"Done."

Two minutes later Skabb came running through the door.

"Kook's coming." he whispered.

"Okay, places everyone."

Gildar, Thorne and Shaiden sat down on the spare sofa while Shaiden slid into the sofa. Kook walked past the lounge door to his room, Gildar and Thorne were both sniggering. Kook closed the door, took off his boots and sat in his nest.

"Agh! What the...Gildar." Kook clambered out and stormed out of his room and down the corridor. "Gildar! Where are you?"

"I think he's found the pool." Thorne whispered.

They could hear Kook get closer and closer to them, soon he appeared in the doorway, his trousers and socks were soaked through, Gildar nearly exploded with laughter.

"Gildar..."

At that point Ballista jumped up from the sofa.

"Ragh!" she screamed.

"AGH!"

Kook went to walk out of the room but Skabb blocked his exit, Kook turned to see him stood there with a large bucket of slime, Kook tried to get away in time, but his reactions were too slow, Skabb had already poured the slime over his head.

"What's going on?" Kook asked.

"Payback for all those pranks you've played on us recently." Gildar explained.

"Did I go too far?"

"A bit."

"I guess that I should apologize. So, I'm sorry.

"Apology accepted."

"I'm going for a wash."

"You could use the pool, there's water there anyway."

"Don't push it."
