Blog Post 3! I told you I wouldn't be able to do tis regularly...ah well.
Anyone remember those little electronic things that there used to be so many of around? They looked like little aliens or monsters or something and they beeped and made mad little noises when you talked to them or clapped or stamped...on them...
Basically the sort of thing you begged your parents for and once you'd played with it a few times it just became annoying so you threw it down the stairs. I guess it's the same sort of story with Furbies. I wonder what age it is you start to find them creepy? I have a wonderful little story about a Furbie, I find it rather uplifting.
My friend's friend went round to play with her friend for the day. I'm sure everyone had a swell time, and she went home and went to bed at 7pm like a good little child. (Ok, I have no idea what time she went to bed but I'm trying my best to make this a nice little story for you.)
Soon after, her friend went to bed, then her parents and her friends parents (let's call them Bob and Mary) went to bed too. Everyone was all tucked up, nice and warm and cosy.
Then, in the dead of night, Mary heard a noise coming from downstairs. She was scared, so she woke Bob up and made him go find out what it was. Armed with a baseball bat, (ok, ok, so I made that bit up, there was no baseballbat.) Bob went downstairs to search out the cause of this mystery noise.
As he reached the bottom of the stairs, he could make out that the noise was a voice. He opened the creaky door and suddenly the voice became clear!
"I'm coming to find youuu."
"Give me a hug!"
There, emerging from the darkness, was a gigantic, axe weilding, killer Furbie! It's eyes glowed red and it wobbled towards Bob, leering at him, swinging the axe towards him with such power that only a half owl/half alien could have.
...
Ok, so it was probably just a normal sized Furbie lying on the floor somewhere. Minus the axe.
Pretty creepy though, huh?
I shall leave you to dwell on that while I go and find some other way to procrastinate from geography revision!
