#11 Monkey Business ~ part 2

“Maybe we should call Bobana since he is an expert on animals,” suggested Bob.

“Yes, that is wise. Let’s do,” answered Pit while punching in Bobana’s phone number on his mobile phone, “Bobana, please come quick! We have a professional-blem!”

Once done with the phone call, Pit took off the boxing gloves he used to punch in the phone numbers and passed the beaten up phone to Bob for safe keeping.

“Why do you bash your phone up like that Pit?” wondered Bob.

Pit grinned and sheepishly replied, “Oh, I give the phone a good wallop now and then to keep the battery going. Since the moblie phone is always battered, I don’t have to worry about the battery level falling to low.”

As Bob and Pit waited for Bobana’s arrival, there was a loud thud from a far away tree. Squinting their eyes, Bob and Pit saw two hairy objects on the ground. One was jumping in an erratic manner and the other was waving its hair.

Pit exclaimed, “I think those are the two weird monkeys…”

Before Pit could finish his sentence, Tunic used his super-sneezing power to propel himself within meters of Pit.

“CHIMP! CHIMP! I AM NOT MONKEY!” screamed Tunic, “I’m ashamed to share 99% of the same genetic composition with the likes of you humans who can’t tell a monkey from a chimp!!”

“I’m really sorry,” apologised Pit sincerely, “Have you any news from your space sheep?”

Just then, Sputnik reached where they were. Breathless after the extremely small distant that he covered by using his super power of speed tip-toeing, he managed to reply Pit, “No… The sheep in our spaceship sheepishly told us that he was out of wool…”

“So, wool is what is needed to save this cow?” asked Bob.

“No! Silly, this just means that the sheep’s master, dame and the little boy down the lane can’t have any black wool soup for the next few months,” replied Tunic in a rather irritated tone.

Suddenly, a groan was heard from Tutti.

“I can, see a light…” Tutti said with a very weak voice, “It’s as bright as the sun…”

Tunic gave Tutti a blank stare and said, “That IS the sun.”

“No, it’s not Tunic, look again,” said Sputnik.

Tunic looked again, and to his astonishment, he saw a bright light coming from the middle of a circular object far up in the sky. The object was descending slowly and the light grew brighter and brighter…
