A dogs life
Soon Uniqua and Austin were in Uniqua's kitchen drinking milk.
Suddenly the door flew open and there stood Tasha.
"AAHHH!" Austin screamed
"What?!" Tasha said
"Its natural for someone to be scared of you Tasha." Uniqua said
"I am very popular!" Tasha said, "Oh! I wish you two were as easy to take care of as a puppy!"
She stormed off.
"Oh no!" Austin said, "When will I learn! Even if Tasha doesn't know she has magic powers she's too dangerous to mess with!"
With a big poof the uniqua and kangaroo were no longer there.
They were dogs.
"We got turned into puppies!" Austin barked.
"But look at us!" Uniqua barked
They could still understand each other as if they were speaking English.
Austin was a husky puppy. Uniqua was a golden retriever puppy.
But their colors were different.
Where a husky was black and white Austin was violet and purple.
And Uniqua was pink with magenta spots.
They both walked outside wondering what to do next when a dog catcher found them.
They tried to escape but they got caught and sent to the pet store in the mall.
"We have to get out of here Uniqua." Austin said
"Yeah but how can we become our own species?" Uniqua asked
"I have an idea." Austin said, "I have 7 wish stars in my bedroom in case of an extreme emergency, I don't think 5 stars will be enough magic to undo this wish."
"Then lets get going." Uniqua said
"Through the mall." Austin said
"With a pet store." Uniqua said
"And a food court," Austin said
"And a beauty salon." Uniqua said
They ran out of their cages and into the isles.
They ignored all the people there.
"We're going to need wish stars to help us get out of here." Austin said
They walked around isles looking.
Austin found one.
Then they used their noses to find the others.
They ran through an air vent into another storage room. It was very dark.
Austin walked into the star pad.
"Its too dark to see past here." Austin said, "So I wish I had night vision!"
With a poof Austin could instantly see everything in the dark room.
"Wow." Uniqua said, "Your eyes are glowing."
"I can see the whole room." Austin said
"But I can't." Uniqua said
"Just follow me exactly." Austin said
They went around a big cage, got one wish star and went through another vent.
A fork lift holding a crate was there with several more crates.
Uniqua jumped onto a button on the forklift. It rose.
They jumped across the crates to the next air vent.
"Careful Uniqua." Austin said, "There are fans here."
"I can't see them." Uniqua said
"I'll guide you." Austin said, "Run forward …now!"
She ran through.
"Uniqua stop!" Austin said
Uniqua ran right into another fan.
Austin ran over to her.
"Are you okay?" Austin asked.
Uniqua hurt her paw.
"It hurts but I can't see it." Uniqua said
"I can." Austin said, "I'll take care of it."
Austin laid down next to her.
Austin started licking her wound.
"I have to get the infection out." Austin explained
They sat there for a while.
Uniqua sighed, "Its really hard to be a dog."
Music plays to the tune of its hard to be a wizard
Both: Its hard to be. So hard to be yeah hard to be a puppy.
Austin: Livin the life of a dog.
Uniqua: is like going through a bog in the fog.
Both: Cause its hard to be, so hard to be yeah hard to be a puppy!
Uniqua: We practice all our tricks! We always do our best! But we can't get it right! We messed up every test!
Austin: I say the say the commanding words! And think the commanding thoughts! But nothing seems to happen! It really hurts a lot!
Uniqua: When we try to run we end up on the floor!
Austin: and when we try to stay real still! We run right out the door!
Both: Cause its hard to be, so hard to be yeah hard to be a puppy!
Austin: Livin the life of a dog.
Uniqua: is like going through a bog in the fog.
Both: Cause its hard to be, so hard to be yeah hard to be a puppy!
Music ends
"Can you get up?" Austin asked
"Yes," Uniqua said, "And thanks."
She licked his face.
They continued along the path until they came back to the big cage they saw earlier.
Uniqua grabbed a wish star.
They walked out through another vent.
They ended up in another storage room with more crates and forklifts.
They each raised one of the forklifts and hopped through.
They ended up on a conveyer belt through a shipping room.
When they got to the other side they went through a door and found themselves in a washing machine shopping room.
They each caught 1 more star.
They ran into the next room where they were on the second story and big gaps.
They walked onto the star pad.
"We have to cross these gaps." Uniqua said, "I wish we could fly."
With a poof their tails were spinning like a propeller.
"Maybe I should have been more specific." Uniqua said
"Well wings would look weird on a dog." Austin said
They flew off across the second story crossing between platforms.
They got 2 wish stars and reached an elevator at the end.
They went down to the first floor.
"I have a plan Uniqua." Austin said
"What?" Uniqua said
"If we can get into the beauty salon I can get us out through an open window. It's the only way we'll be able to escape safely." Austin said
They ended up at the food court.
"Split up and look for stars." Austin said
They ran off in opposite directions and soon had five wish stars and got to the beauty salon.
But it was locked.
Uniqua stepped on a star pad outside.
"We need to get inside!" Uniqua said
"Maybe we can tunnel in." Austin said
"Good idea." Uniqua said, "I wish I had super digging powers."
With a poof Uniqua could dig super fast.
They dug into the salon.
Once they were inside they crossed several couches in the waiting room to the hair dryers.
They crossed the chairs into another air vent.
They went past some massage tables.
In the next room there was a big pool.
They hopped across floaters and to the other side where there were mud baths.
They carefully passed them and went through an open window.
They ran home.
Austin and Uniqua snuck into Austins room and got the wish stars he had.
"We wish we were normal again!" They both said
With a poof they were a kangaroo and a uniqua again.
They ran outside where tyrone Tasha and Pablo were.
Suddenly Tasha fainted as Uniquas book came out of her.
"We got all the pages of my magic book back!" Uniqua said, "And this time I'm going to hide it somewhere safe."
The end.
