A story of two Prawns.

Feek · 01-11-2007, 15:49

There were these two prawns, who were friends, and lived their life, unsurprisingly, under the sea. Their names were Christian and Phillip.

Now, being prawns, they were not exactly at the top of the natural order of things, and so were looked down upon by their fishy friends, and so on. They weren't very happy about this and pondered what to do.

One morning, in the morning paper (well, seaweed strictly, but there you are), Christian spotted an advertisement for a travelling sea-witch, who ran freelance. "Look there" he said, passing the paper to Christian - "I bet she can help us". Christian was a little sceptical, and would not go with Phillip.

Phillip, somewhat downheartened, went to see the witch, and explained to her about his problems about being a smallest and weakest creature in the sea, and how it was affecting his social life and ego and so on. "No problem" the witch said, "soon that'll all be a thing of the past!". With a flick of her tail, she turned him into a Shark.

Overjoyed, Phillip swam home as fast as his fins could take him (which was considerably faster than his prawny legs that he previously had), to tell his friend the good news. On seeing him, of course, everyone swam away rapidly, and was very scared! No one in fact would have anything to do with him - including Christian - everyone was afraid he would eat them.

Distraught, he went back to the seawitch and told her about how much it sucked being a shark, that no one would be friends with him, and how his best friend now hated him. "okay, okay, I can't have you spouting off about me to everyone saying my work is shoddy, I'll sort it out for you and reverse the spell free of charge" she said, and no sooner said, than done.

Overjoyed, Phillip rushed home again, burst through his little clamshell door and exclaimed "Look! I'm a Prawn again Christian!".

The Prawn Joke - That is all.
