Despicable Me: A Bouncy Day

Today Gru was expecting his family to greet him. But there was nobody there. ''Helloooo? Lucy? Girls? Dru?'' he called, ''Where is everybody?''. He went outside. ''SURPRISE, SURPRISE!'' shouted Dru, Lucy, Margo, Edith, Agnes, Dr Nefario and all the Minions. Before Gru's eyes stood something very big and blue. ''What in the name of Billy Bones is going on?'' asked Gru. ''It's a bouncy castle, brother'' replied Dru, ''For us all to have fun on''. ''How thoughtful'' said Gru, ''But don't you think I'm too big for this?''. ''Relax, Dad, it's for kids and adults'' said Edith. ''Try it'' said Agnes. ''Alright, here we go'' said Gru climbing up onto the big inflatable. He bounced up and down on the spot. ''I can't jump high enough but it sure is fun'' he said. ''Does anyone else want a go?''. ''Me! Me! Me!'' chanted everyone.

''You try it, Lucy'' Gru said to his wife. Gru got off and Lucy got on. She bounced about so wildly her shirt flew up and down so everyone got flashes of her bare belly with every jump. ''See how high you can jump, Mom!'' cheered Margo. So Lucy did, ''Join me, Margo, we can bounce together'' she said. So Margo climbed up onto the bouncy castle. Lucy and Margo bounced holding hands. Margo whooped with joy. ''Is it my turn now?'' asked Edith.''Yes, let Edith have a go'' said Gru. ''You can join us, Edith. And Agnes, you can come along, too'' smiled Lucy. ''Yay!'' cheered Agnes as she and Edith climbed onto the bouncy castle. Soon Lucy and the girls were bouncing happily together. ''Grandma! Dr Nefario! Come join us!'' called Agnes. ''Yeah! It's great fun'' added Margo.

''Oh, no, thank you. We're just watching you youngsters'' replied Dr Nefario. Marlena agreed. ''Oh! Let me! I wanna do it on my own!'' begged Dru. ''Alright, Dru, your turn'' said Lucy. She and the girls got off to make way for Dru. ''Watch me, everyone! Cos I'm really good at this! Weeeee!'' he thrilled. Like Gru, Dru bounced up and down on the spot. The Minions wanted to have a go as well. When Dru got off, the Minions went on as well, bouncing up and down like the humans did. Lucky bounced on it, too. And so did Blondie. One of the Minions, Bob, dragged Kyle onto the bouncy castle as well. But the monster dog didn't want to go on it.

But the Minion didn't seem to notice. Kyle did everything he could to escape, but to no avail. Then he got bounced by another minion and landed on his teeth which made holes in the bouncy castle!

There was the sound of air hissing as the castle began to go down. Down, down, down like a balloon until it was all flat. ''Kyle! Bad dog!'' said Margo crossly. ''You broke it! We can't have anymore fun now!'' moaned Edith. ''No, we still can'' said Gru, ''I have an idea''. He and the minions got some sticky tape and a tyre pump to fix the bouncy castle. They wasted no time. Soon the bouncy castle was blown up and in working order again. ''There! Done! Everyone aboard!'' said Gru. He, Dru, Lucy, Margo, Edith, Agnes, Lucky, Blondie and the Minions all went back on the bouncy castle together. ''I hope you're enjoying so much, Dad, because we are!'' said Agnes.
