Chapter 9A – Here's the more cynical idea to finish off the story.
David watched as they waddled round – it was a strange way of walking, considering that they weren't in any way prone to waddling – and found a place to rest. The young boy found the chair and sat down. Moments later the woman and girl were on the floor next to him, each looking adoringly at him.
"Oh, Arkie, you ain't half looking down." The girl had the voice of a woman.
"Well," the boy called Arkie squirmed in his seat, "This thing is so uncomfortable, and there's barely any room!"
This sentence shocked David. The boy was barely half his size, and had plenty of room.
"I'm coming out!" he shouted.
David stopped himself from snorting. With the two adoring 'chicks' by his side, he had decided to become gay. Weird!
"Arkie, we ain't got time! We 'ave to find the boy; I 'eard the parents say he wandered off. The bloody twat!" The little girl got up and turned to the woman. "Don't you ever go wandering off like that."
The women smiled with the innocence of a child.
"I can't stand it!" The boy grabbed at his fringe and hoisted it up over his head, revealing a blue glowing zip.
David opened his mouth. He'd heard about these things that confined a large creature in small bodies, so that must be what this was! It explained the unusual family.
This chapter leads on to basically have David captured. Please tell me what you think... REMEMBER COOLIO! Oh, and 9B should be up soon.
