There once was an alien who was silver all over and had green hands, feet and head. They were all perfectly round like circles except on each hand he 3 fingers and 1 thumb and on each foot just 2 toes. His name was Frederick and he lived on the most famous planet outside of our solar system, it was the planet Charlie’s Toe of course! Today Freddy was looking out his window at a cluster of brown cats. They were dancing and it seemed to Freddy like they were having plenty of fun. He wanted to join in and started jumping in circles in his bedroom, jumping to his own beat and rhythm. His window was open, the brown cats could hear Freddy having a lot more fun than them, so they came to his window to see who had so rudely interrupted their dance. Meanwhile, Freddy was getting carried with his jumping, jumping high, jumping low, twisting and turning whichever way he wanted. The cats soon joined in, but they had their own ideas. They started to meow and dance around Freddy, they were actually chanting for a huge monster to appear! Oblivious to this monster chant, Freddy joined in unaware of who was going to turn up. Thunder started to rumble and the glass in the Freddy’s window shattered and the Sun lost it’s light for just a second. When the Sun’s rays filled the room again, a Werewolf was crouching by the window. It crept towards Freddy but something else appeared. Udders! The Werewolf had udders! It was a Cowolf, only ever talked about but never seen! The cats had summoned the great Cowolf to help them take over Charlie’s Toe. Cowolf was very angry he had been brought there for such silly desires and started to howl and snarl getting ready to show why he was a monster indeed. Meanwhile, Freddy was still playing catch up and by the time he realised his life was in danger the brown cats had already pawed it away from Cowolf. Freddy pleaded for his life and tried to reel out his best/worst (it’s a matter of opinion) jokes to befriend Cowolf.
Freddy wimpered “What do you call a lost wolf?..... A where-wolf!” Cowolf stopped. Assessed Freddy and chuckled “That was terrible but lucky for you I don’t eat my greens. Drink?” Cowolf, as a gesture of friendship offered Freddy a bucket of milk from his own udders. Struck dumb by his luck, Freddy accepted the gift heartily, took one hesitant sip and then put it to the side, as he thought it would be rude to drink it all in one go. Freddy and Cowolf got into long and deep conversations that afternoon, they talked about themselves, their dreams and plans for the weekend. But the room starts to rumble again like before, both of them are nearly swept off their feet and out of the window. A very powerful tornado was sucking them out of Freddy’s house. But I didn’t mention earlier that Freddy has suction cups in the palms of his perfectly round hands on the tips of his fingers and toes. With Cowolf on his back he crawled (or suction cupped) to his basement and into a secret passage that lead deep underground where they were safe…for now. Whilst Cowolf was searching around for any other passages he stubbed his toe on a trunk. It was unlocked. At first Cowolf could only see darkness when he opened the trunk, he stuck his nose in further he couldn’t see the bottom, he thought it was empty but them he bumped his nose on a cold surface. He dragged his claws along it’s metal seal and found a handle. It opened a hatch, a hatch to a rocket. Freddy rushed over and knew exactly what as was going on. This was the enchanted trunk that could fit anything in it just like Mary Poppin’s bottomless carpet bag or the Hogwart’s room of requirement. And it seemed this one held a rocket. They both hopped in and started the engines, they powered up and blew through all the soil and cement above them and broke through the ground. Straight through the tornado and past the atmosphere of Charlie’s Toe into Space. They had an unlimited supply of fuel so they decided to check out the far away and very trendy planet, Earth. However, on their arrival the FBI and Men in Black were already waiting for them with all sorts of regulations and rules about visiting Earth. Instead, Freddy and Cowolf invited the both teams to Charlie’s Toe for a working holiday! And that’s another whole story!
