Chick On the Loose

Newton: What’s this jumping across the room? Could this be one of Ashton’s missing chicks? * SLURP * It looks like a little chicken, but it doesn’t taste like one.

Newton tastes the wind-up chickNewton: Whoa! Did you have a little too much catnip, little guy? You’re not very steady on your feet.

Newton knocks over the wind-up chickNewton: It’s not getting up.

Pierre: Did you hurt it?

Newton: I barely bit it! How could I have hurt it?

Newton_pats_wind_up_chickPierre: It looks like you killed it.

Newton: Not on purpose. Can you keep it while I figure out what to do next?

Pierre: I guess so….

Newton pushes wind-up chick to Pierre
Newton: Oh, hi, Ashton! Are you missing something?

Pierre: Uh-oh.

    Oops. We agree with Summer, though. That chick must have been defective in the first place.

    That does look a lot like a chick! I think Ashton is a step closer to her Chicken Emporium 🙂 I hope you can wake that chick up before Ashton sees what you did!
