Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!
Heya! The day that you have all been waiting for— Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES. I might as well give you a brief introduction, but if you had missed the last chapter you can catch it here, or start from the beginning here. I also have some art that you can find here.
The story ended last time when Clumsy Bird, Witty Toothpick, and Jazzy Hawk got word that there were more people out there surviving, and that they would hold a meeting on Goofball Island, in the city hall. So they set their yellow blimp on course to that island… but… someone is watching their every move. And the team knows nothing about it at all.
What happens next?
You’ll have to find out for yourself.
ZOMBIES, ZOMBIES, ALWAYS ZOMBIES!
A Zomberry Series
Episode Five: Goofing Off
It’s nearing morning.
The yellow blimp passes several peaceful fields, gliding through the crisp morning air, over dew-spangled grass.The sun, just peeking over the horizon of hills, is bright and pure.
And then there are the zombies.
They are a bright indigo color, and occasionally speckling the grass. But they are what turn this rather calm morning into something of a nightmare.The birds tweeting and calling are drowned out by the eerie moans and groans.
Clumsy Bird
It’s MORNING? Isn’t this WONDERFUL?!
Clumsy Bird (or Birdy) seems extra cheerful this morning, perhaps because they were on their way to meet fellow survivors. She is bouncing around the small blimp, making it shake a little.
Witty Toothpick
Stop shaking the blimp! It’s too early in the morning! *yawn*
Clumsy Bird sits down on the chair by the blimp’s steering wheel, and keeps bouncing her feet off the group.
Hello. The last time we were with Friendly Thunder, he woke up in a diner, met Dizzy Claw, and encountered an enigmatic girl at the factory. Now let’s get started!
FADE IN.
We see FRIENDLY THUNDER, DIZZY CLAW, and ICY SNAKE sitting at the factory. DIZZY CLAW quickly sees something blue near a window. He grabs it. They’re blueprints!
Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Silver Sword. Enjoy!
Hey Poptropicans! Before I start this new story, I just want to share with you that this fanfic idea is inspired by a comment from Magic Kid on another post of mine, The Story of White Cloud, Part 2. Now let’s begin.
It was a dark, starry night on Goofball Island. The stars didn’t light up anything in Dullsville, though, because it was so dull. Anna Gram had just become a detective, and she browsed the street for a mystery. She became hungry and hurried over to the Dusty Crust Bakery.
ANNA: “Hello! Seen any mystery?!”
Anna had just moved to Dullsville, but she had lived in Goofside for a while. So whenever she talked, she was super cheerful.
BAKER: “All I’ve seen is bread. Want some?”
ANNA: “Why are you so dull?”
BAKER: “Why are you so goofy?”
ANNA: “Because I’ve been living in Goofside!”
BAKER: “And I’ve been living in Dullsville. Now, would you like some bread or not?”
ANNA: “Yes!”
The baker handed Anna some bread.
BAKER: “Don’t pay. Money is colourful.”
Anna took a bite of the bread, or she would have, if she could bite it.
ANNA: “First mystery: find out why this bread is the opposite of normal!”
To be continued…
