The first animal Rosie and I saw was the lions. We didn't look at them for long. We were only standing there for two minutes when Rose began to pull me away. But I wanted to play!
All the lions were sleeping, so I picked up a small rock and threw it at the biggest one in the cage. He got up quickly and ran over to where he must have thought the rock had come from. So, the lion went the completely opposite direction to where I was standing. Silly lion.
"No, Emmett!" Rose screamed.
"But Rose! I wanna play! I was just trying to wake him up!"I said. What was her problem?
"No, Emmett, you can't do that!" She pulled my arm really hard, but I didn't move a bit, because I'm the magnificent Emmett!
Silly, silly Rose. She thought I would get hurt if I went to play with the lions. I laughed really loud at this. "Aw, Rose. You don't have to worry about me getting hurt! You know that would never happen! I'm Emmett!" I puffed out my chest so my muscles would stand out more.
"No, Emmett, I mean you can't do that to these lions! Look!" She pointed to a group of men in funny hats walking towards us.
"Let's go!" Rosalie pulled my arm real hard again.
I pouted and followed her. "Fine." Why did Rose have to be so much of a sour sob?
Next we got to see the tigers, but we only stayed there for 10.54 seconds, which I know because I have SUPER VAMPIRE COUNTING POWERS! They weren't very interesting anyways, sleeping like the silly lions. Silly, silly lions.
Then we got to go in the big cage where all the pretty birds are! My beautiful Rose pointed out all the names of the birds she knew, which was lots 'cause she's my smarty Rose.
There was this one bird, I think it was called a pea . . . pea something. . A peacock! That's it! I had no idea why it had a silly name like that, but it had really big feathers coming out of its butt! They were blue, and green, and purple, all those pretty colours.
"Rose, look at all those feathers coming out of that peacock's butt!" I said to her.
Some little kids looked at me and laughed. I waved to them and smiled my favourite smile. Rosie rolled her eyes. Spoil sport.
The next animals we got to see were these big grey things, they were like . . . bigger than Edward's hair spike! And THAT, my friends, is BIG. I wonder if Rose noticed the same thing.
"Hey Rose, those things are so big! They're even bigger than Edward's hair spike!" I told her, pointing at the animals. They had really long noses.
Then, Rose burst out laughing, and didn't stop for about two minutes. When people began to stare, I whispered to her "Shh Rose! You're so embarrassing!" I pulled her away while she was still laughing her head off.
When we got to the next animal, Rose had finally finished laughing. I never found out what those long-nosed thingies were called. "Hey Rose, what were those things called back there, anyways?" I asked her. She would know because she's my SMART COOKIE!
She looked at me with her lips pressed together. Then, she burst out laughing again. NOW why was she laughing so much? I turned around and looked at the next animal . . .
