Short Story

Newark, OH(Zone 5a)

It was another stormy day in the Halliwell house. roadrunner rushed down the stairs on the way to work looking for her table. '' Aimee ''! she yelled, running into the kitchen ''Have you seen my gun?''She stopped abrubtly as the kitchen was empty. ''Hello? Is anyone here?''. '' Aimee ?'', ''Calalily ? Where are you?'' Before she could do anything the door to the house slammed open to reveal a stranger wearing half a sandwich on his head. ''Who are you?'' roadrunner demanded ''What you you want?'' The stranger swayed from side to side, reminding roadrunner of a drunk dog. ''I am here to warn you about the supercalafragilistic that is about to devour your house'' said the stranger. ''Um thanks...'' replied roadrunner, escorting him to the door. As she opened it a shadow loomed over the house. Looking up she saw a giant chocolate bar nearing the house. She squinted at it and saw that Aimee and Calalily were running towards the house, covered in bits of chocolate bar. 'It's going to be one of those days' thought roadrunner as she ran forwards. The chocolate bar was too far away for her to do anything to it so as Aimee and Calalily ran up the driveway she ushered them into the house. ''Quick'' gasped Calalily as the door closed behind them ''We have to get to the Book of Shadows''. ''Have you got any idea what that thing is?'' Aimee asked as they entered the attic. ''I think it's called a supercalafragilistic roadrunner replied, leafing through the Book. ''Ah, here we go. How to banish a supercalafragilistic '' She grabbed the book and went to the window through which the chocolate bar could be seen. ''Minion of tub depart from this snoopy. Leave us and run to your goldsville dominions. For we have the power of brocolli to conquer thee!''. The giant chocolate bar vanished with a 'pop', spraying bits of itself all over the place. ''You know, this reminds me of the time when someone said "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all "said Aimee. ''What does that have to do with anything?'' asked Calalily as roadrunner looked at them. ''Nothing'' said Aimee "this is all a dream anyway!''
