'Ello! Naomi's the name and picking on Picard is the game.
Garet: What are you going to do this time?
Nofing. The people asked why Picard is afraid of rubber duckies and I have to tell them! I think that some fanfic writer's law or somefing requires me to.
Garet: Why are you refusing to pronounce the 'th' sound?
No reason.

Chapter One: A new story and betrayal
"Read us a story, Naomi!" Kaylee demanded.
"Why should I, cat food breath?" I asked.
"Because Mom and Dad told you too," Jewl pointed out. Crap, I was cornered. Two little sisters that demand a story are not a fun thing to deal with.
"How about I tell you a real story?" I questioned.
"Real stories are boring!" Kaylee yelled.
"Yeah! Boring!" Jewl agreed.
"Fine," I sighed. "I'll tell you a fake story."
"Don't tell us that it's a fake story!" Kaylee groaned. "That ruins the fun."
"Yeah! Ruins the fun!" Jewl agreed.
"Fine, how about I tell you a story about Orchid's boyfriend?" I finally queried.
"Orchid has a boyfriend?" Kaylee stared.
"A boyfriend?" Jewl repeated.
"She wishes," I muttered. "Okay, a story about Picard it is."
***
This story begins (as all good stories should) with a really buff guy. One day he decided to go fishing.
:: "I hate fish!" Kaylee shouted.
"Yeah, fish are gross!" Jewl agreed.
I rolled my eyes. "Shuttup!" ::
Anyway, his name was Picard and he was a Mercury Adept. He liked to fish and Jenna, a Mars Adept, had ordered him to. Jenna liked to order people around. So, Picard was fishing.
:: "This story is boring," Kaylee groaned.
I covered Jewl's mouth before she could agree. "Do you want a story or not?"
"I'll be quiet," Kaylee lied. ::
"La de da de da!" Picard sang. "I love to fish! Don't you love to fish, Rubber Ducky?"
Rubber Ducky squeaked.
Picard smiled. "Let's do some more fishing!"
Picard was fishing and fishing and fishing until he finally caught the biggest whale in the world! He tried to reel it in, but the bait broke off. "Oh no!" he cried. "I don't have anymore bait."
Rubber Ducky squeaked.
Picard turned slowly to stare at Rubber Ducky. Rubber Ducky stared back with his beady black eyes. Picard reached for a hook and crept towards Rubber Ducky. Rubber Ducky squeaked and jumped into the water. Unfortunately for Rubber Ducky, it is a law of nature that all rubber duckies float. Picard plunged his hand in the water and grabbed Rubber Ducky.
Rubber Ducky squeaked.
:: "Oh no!" Jewl shouted.
"Orchid's boyfriend is mean!" Kaylee cried.
I just smiled. ::
Picard slowly hooked Rubber Ducky mercilessly. All the while he just stared into the pained black eyes of the ducky. "It's all right," Picard grinned. "We're just going to catch us a fish. Then I'll let you go."
Rubber Ducky squeaked.
Picard lowered Rubber Ducky into the water. They waited and waited, until a big fish came up and bit Rubber Ducky's tail and got stuck. Picard reeled the fish in, but it was too late to save Rubber Ducky. Instead, Picard threw the deflated ducky into the ocean.
It seemed that Rubber Ducky would never squeak again.
:: "That's nice," Kaylee yawned. "The ducky was getting boring anyway."
"Yeah!" Jewl agreed. "Boring!" ::
Picard took the fish he had caught into Jenna, where she cooked it for dinner. Everybody had some very nice fish that evening, except for Rubber Ducky.

"The end," I said as I got up to leave their smelly room of beds.
"That wasn't a story!" Kaylee shouted.
"Yeah! It wasn't!" Jewl agreed.
I rolled my eyes. "That's because it's just the first part, benjo meusi."
"Fine!" Kaylee cried. "You have to tell us more tomorrow night!"

What did you think?
Garet: *snoring*
That's why it's called a bed time story.
Garet: What are you going to do this time?
Nofing. The people asked why Picard is afraid of rubber duckies and I have to tell them! I think that some fanfic writer's law or somefing requires me to.
