The Tale of
Chatterbox: Inkwell
The Tale of
The Tale of the Great Toucan War
JBE and Pete the Trollslayer stood on top of a hill at the foot of a rainforest. The only noise was the light whistling of the breeze and the animal sounds of the jungle. This wasn't a sightseeing trip, though. This was the begining of a great war.
"Do you hear anything?" Pete asked, squinting into the dense jungle.
"Nothing yet," JBE replied. "But they'll be coming sooner or later. General Bob wouldn't listen to reason after we stole his muffins. The only way to settle this is war."
Pete was about to say something else but he was cut off by a maniac screeching sound from deep within the rainforest.
JBE and Pete tensed, clutching their weapons. "They'll be coming any second now," JBE whispered.
Another screech sounded, this one much closer. It was followed immediately by a colorful cloud exploding from the jungle. A swarm of angry toucans.
"Ready your weapons!" Pete yelled. JBE raised a bow, and Pete unsheathed a huge sword. Together, they ran at the enormous flock of toucans, screaming battle cries of fury.
The birds quickly spotted the two warriors and divebombed them. Pete started slashing at the birds, while JBE shot at them from a distance. One of the birds attacked JBE with a sharp peck on the head, while three more flew in a circle around Pete, dizzying him until he fell over. Pete and JBE weren't doing too terribly, but it was clearly a losing battle.
"This is hopeless!" JBE cried. "General Bob's forces are relentless!"
Pete smiled. "Don't worry, I have one final trick up my sleeve..."

Will do!
Pete reached into his satchel and took out an enormous hammer that couldn't have possibly fit in such a small satchel. He raised the hammer and cried out: "BY THE TROLLSLAYING POWERS BESTOWED UPON ME, LET THESE BIRDS MEET THEIR FATE!" Pete swung the hammer in an arc, knocking the toucans into oblivion. The ones who didn't get hit flew off, squawking in fear.
"Well, that was easier than expected," JBE said, putting away his bow.
"Or so you think!" cackled a voice from within the jungle. Out of the trees rose the biggest toucan of them all, wearing a badge of authority. The terrible general Bob.
"Aw, come on, man! I just put away my bow!" complained JBE. "Now I have to take it out again!"
"That petty weapon is the least of your worries," General Bob sneered. "I'm going to destroy you for what you did to my muffins!"
"Here's one of your muffins, General Bob!" called Pete, taking a half eaten blueberry muffin out of his satchel and thowing it at the huge toucan.
General Bob caught the muffin in his talons and crumbled it to bits. "That's not gonna cut it, pretty boy," the bird snarled. "I want your blood!" General Bob swooped down with open talons, just barely missing JBE and Pete. General Bob circled around and prepared to dive a second time.
Pete raised his swored again. "We can take this guy! There's two of us and only one of him!"
"Yeah, but he's a giant psychotic toucan and we're not," JBE reminded. "I think it's best to get out of here while we still can. What we need is an army."

JBE and I ran away from the jungle. I looked back, and General Bob was on the horizon. I couldn't, tell if he was following us or not, but better safe then sorry.
"Y'know, he kinda reminds me of Ugly Bird," I mumble.
"Who?" asks JBE.
"Nobody," I say. "Anyway It'll take us at least a week to get back to the Chatterbox. What do you suppos--" but I'm cut of by Bob's terrible screech. JBE and I ran fast, But Bob flew faster. He was about to clamp his colorful beak around one of us, when a stick hit him in the eye. We turn an- It can't be- It is! Joe the Stickfiddler!
"Joe!" I exclaim.
"Where have you been? We havn't seen you in months!" says JBE.
"No time!" shouts Joe. "Get to the character cafe. It's safe there! I'll fight him off!"
"With... sticks?" I question.
"Just go!" commands Joe. So off to the charrie cafe we went.
