Chapter 3

I watched as the Brown Bar-Ba-Loots played until they got hungry then pick some Truffula fruit and lay down under the trees. That reminds me! I have to plant more! I have my suspicions that the Lorax sent the Brown Bar-Ba-Loots and if they stayed, he would send the fish then the swans.

"Macii, we should go plant some more trees now," I whispered to the sleeping lump.

"Huh? What? Where am I?" Macii asked confused.

"You are in the NEW Truffula Tree forest that we planted, remember?" I explained.

"Oh, right. I remember now," Macii got up and we went straight to work digging and planting and watching the amazing sight of the Truffula Trees grow. Neither of us could tear our eyes away as the trees changed from brilliant color to brilliant color. Soon, we were three quarters way done, so we took a lunch break.

"Yumm…"Macii muttered as she bit into her half of the fruit. We only took one fruit so the Brown Bar-Ba-Loots could eat as much as they wanted.

"I agree," I said with my mouth full.

"Don't talk with your mouth full," she slapped my arm playfully, "just because our mothers aren't here doesn't mean you shouldn't have good manners!" I stuck my tongue out at her. I probably shouldn't have because we were right next to the lake.

SPLASH! A humongous wave erupted when I fell in, but unfortunately, Macii had jumped out of the way.

"Come on best friend, I forgive you!" I said reaching out as if to give her a hug. Macii screeched and ran out of my reach, but I climbed out and started chasing her.

"GET AWAY FROM ME YOU SEA MONSTER!" Macii yelled so loud that the Brown Bar-Ba-Loots looked to see what was happening, when they saw me chasing her, they joined in.

"Now you've got the Brown-Bar-Ba-Loots chasing you wierdo! You are so LOUD!" I shouted at her.

"Shut up Jake!" Macii retorted. I had caught up to her. I pushed my legs to go faster, and they did. I finally caught up to her and gave her a huge, wet hug.

"GET OFF ME! You're WET!"

A few hours later, (Macii had insisted that we dry off) Macii and I went back to work planting the seeds. We were watching the truffula trees we had just planted grow, when I realized there was no more seeds left in my pouch.

"MACII! We are DONE! Done done done done!" I shouted gleefully.

"Jeez, no need to shout! Are we really done? I mean, now what do we do? We probably could plant more. I love doing that, planting the trees I mean…" Macii started going on and on. That's how I could tell that she was excited. Macii ALWAYS talks too much when she's excited. But, I did agree with her, it was fun planting the trees.

"Okay, I agree, planting the trees is fun. We can do that as long as we want," I mumbled.

"Come on, it's getting dark, let's go eat," Macii said, getting out of this weird daze we were in.

"'kay," I whispered. We walked back to our camp site by the lake, on the way we picked two Truffula fruits on the way. We felt like celebrating. As we ate, I felt a drop of water fall on my hand. I looked up at the sky. No clouds were in the darkening atmosphere. No clouds? That doesn't make sense! I stopped eating. Macii was looking at me weird, it must have been my confused expression.

"What?" Macii asked. Another drop landed on my hand, but this time I heard a splash. Suddenly I realized what was causing it. I whipped around.

"MACII!" I yelled even though she was right next to me.

"Jeez Jake! Quit with the yelling! What?"

"LOOK!" I shouted, ignoring her order. Macii looked over and saw what I did.

"Humming-Fish," She murmured wonderingly. We were so tired that we could only gaze at the beautiful fish.

I felt something nibble my ear, so I shooed it away. It would not stop bothering me. I kept shooing it away again and again. Finally I opened my eyes. A Swomee-Swan gazed at me expectantly. It's eyes looked from mine to the half-eaten fruit by my side and back agin. I got the message.

"Do you want some fruit little birdie?" I asked him. The swan just looked back at the fruit then at my face, so I hand him the fruit. He gobbles it up quickly.

"I should name you," I said while I thought of one.

"Who are you talking to, Jake?" Macii asked sleepily.

"A Swomee-Swan," I answered absently.

"Oh. Okay. I'm gonna go back to slee-WAIT A SECOND! A Swomee-Swan?"

"Yeah," I kept thinking of a name. The Swomee-Swan was orange with a big beak and even bigger eyes.

"Geemee," I said the bird it looked at me then at another bird. Name taken, it seemed to say.

"How about Kemek? You flip it backwards and it is the same!" He walked over to a Truffula Tree and picked up a stick that was at the roots. He held the stick in his beak like I would hold a pencil. The Swomee-Swan drew something in the ground. I moved forward to see what he drew.

"Breemee" It said. Not the best writing but…

"Oh, you're a girl. Sorry, nice name," I apologized.

"Apology excepted," her eyes seemed to say. I noticed that Breemee stuck out from the rest of the swans, they even looked at her oddly. I took a closer look and saw that Breemee had a short wing.

"Ahh… So, you've met Breemee. I always liked her. She is special," A raspy voice said. I knew who that was!

I whiped around and I saw a orange, three and a half foot fuzzball. He even had a light orange mustache!

"The Lorax...?" I wispered forming a question on accident.

"Who else would know what Breemee's name is?" He answered impaitently.

"But, she just told me hers… wouldn't a lot of people know her name if she just wrote it?" I asked. Although I was sure it was the Lorax just by looking at his orange fur and hearing his raspy voice. He sighed.

"Kid, you've done a good job planting the Tuffula Trees," He admitted.

"But it wasn't just me. Macii helped. MACII! WAKE UP!" I wanted to introduce her to the great Lorax.

"What? Did something happen?" She snapped awake, " The Lorax!" Macii whispered in an amazed trance.

"Yes, yes Macii, it is,"

Sorry if this seems rushy still. Please review and tell me what is wrong!
