April Fool! {open}

[Panchito]

It was April Fool's Day, almost Panchito's favorite day of the year, a day dedicated to playing tricks on people.

In the spirit of the day, the rooster scouted out the perfect location for a prank. He sneaked a bucket from a maintenance man whose back was turned, filled it with water and placed it over a half-opened door to a gift shop.

Sitting back on a bench a few yards away, Panchito waited for the fun to begin.

[Prince John]

"I want everything this shop has to offer," Prince John said waving his ring studded hand. He and Hiss approached the cashier.

"My! Don't you think that is a bit...oh I don't know...much...sire?" Hiss asked cautiously, looking about the shop.

"Much? Hahahaha! Ridiculous you silly snake! I'm doing them a much needed favor, haha, yes!" He replied.

Hiss sighed. "Even these...stuffed animals si--?" Hiss asked, slithering up the leg of a bin that contained various animals of the fluffy variety. Hiss lost his balance and fell into the bin.

Prince John continued walking before he even realized his assistant had vanished. "Hiss? Hmmm....sir Hiss?" He turned around and saw the stuffed animals in the bin moving seemingly by themselves. The Prince marched over there, jabbed his hand into the bin and pulled Hiss out by the neck.

Disoriented, Hiss said, "Is it n-necessary?"

"YES!" Prince John shouted and carried him towards the door. He said on his way out to the cashier. "I would like all of these...purchases...delivered to my castle. Make the delivery especially speedy, you ought not keep r-r-royalty waiting, haha, am I right, Hiss?"

Hiss sighed. "As always," he answered sarcastically.

"As always...hahahha, yes! Oh Hiss you certainly have a charming way with..." Prince John opened the door and SPLASH! The bucket of water came crashing on his head, making him drop Hiss.

"Oh dear!" Hiss exclaimed, slithering about not knowing what to do. "Sire! Are you alright?" A laugh started to bubble in his stomach and he tried hard to keep it in.

Prince stood there, his hands in fists, his royal robe soaked, his brow frowned, his crown slopped over his eyes, his jaw locked in a snarl.

"Sire?" A bit of a snicker escaped his lips

Suddenly Prince John leaped in the air, throwing his fists about and screamed, "WHO IS THE CONNIVING CULPRIT WHO DARE DAMPEN MY RRRROYAL ROBE! MY ROYAL HEAD?! THE ROYAL HANDS?!" When he was done jumping about, he pushed his crown back on his head, but it only slipped down again because of the water. "HE SHALL PAY DEEEARLY!"

"I have no idea! I--" Hiss started to laugh but covered his mouth with his tail.

"What was that I hear?" The Prince snapped. "Was that a chuckle?" He approached Hiss, his fur sagging, heavy from the wetness.

Hiss slithered backwards, shaking his head.

"A snicker?!"

Hiss continued, shaking his head.

"A GIGGLE, SIR HISS??!"

Hiss shook his head vigorously, still trying to hold in his laughter.

Before the Prince could grab him, he looked up and saw a rooster sitting on the bench. Was this the culprit???

[Panchito]

Ole! A hit already! Somebody tripped Panchito's trap and got a bucket of water over the head.

The rooster had intended to sit quietly and watch without giving himself away, but it was simplemente imposible.

The victim, whoever he was, was a scrawny lion dressed up muy elegante...very fancy. He obviously thought he was somebody special.

When the water hit, it made him look even scrawnier. And his crown...kept falling down...ah, ha, ha...over his face...

It was inevitable: Panchito lost it completely. Holding his sides, he laughed uncontrollably, but still managed to shout out, "April fool!"

[Prince John]

(gaah sry for holding this up!)

The rooster started to laugh and he shouted "April Fool!"

Prince John stood up right and glared at the pest, his eyes flaring with anger. "April....fool?!"

Hiss finally was able to uncover his mouth to speak. "S-s-sire! See? It was simply a joke! A funny! A harmless laugh!"

"HARMLESS, you say?" The prince said, outraged. He tried marching up to the rooster but tripped over his sagging and wet robe.

Hiss slapped his tail over his mouth again to prevent himself from laughing again.

Eyes narrowing, the prince looked as if he were bubbling up with more and more anger as each moment passed. He then recovered, and tried pouncing on the bench, aiming to almost football-tackle the small animal. He shut his eyes upon landing, not knowing if he succeeded in capturing him or not.

(u can decide if i succeeded or not )

[Panchito]

Panchito could hardly stand it! The angry lion king just got funnier and funnier! Now he was tripping over his own robe--and the rooster thought he'd die laughing.

His fun was interrupted, however, when the dripping lion pounced.

Was he serious? Panchito had been in many a brawl in his day. In fact, he enjoyed them.

And he ate up wimps like this para el desayuno.

"Oho, so you want to fight, eh? Muy bueno!" With that, the vacquero smacked his adversary a beauty right on his royal nose.
