The story of.... (do read on)

The other day Yukon and I decided to write a short story together. We have come out with the first part so please read it. Now it will be posted here and on yukons blog so you may want to read both blogs because there may be some slight variations of the story in the next few weeks.
Enjoy


Part 1

Once upon in the land of Stinking Bishop a young lad awoke to a bright day. This is were our story begins.


It was early morning when Constipatio a tall lanky young man (he was bald due too a birth defect) awoke. He was not like everyone else in his cheese loving village, because he was allergic to cheese it had been so from birth, which is where his name comes from.


Constipatio woke slightly groggy yet happy, this was the day of the great cheese festival!! Now he couldn't eat cheese but He, his dog Champlion and his friend Jack Walter Daniels (Who might I add LOVED!! rum) had a small party of there own. Now Constipatio ate his breakfast (all non dairy of course), quickly put on his boots and walked north to his friends house. Seeing as it was a warm sunny day he brought no jacket, just a knapsack (full of all manner of none dairy picnic foods and beverages), his walking stick and his dog, Champlion.


Jack (a short stocky man with dirty blond hair and a sparse goatee) was sitting on his back deck smoking a pipe and watching the fog melt away,as he sat he reflected on his plans for the day. He was going on a picnic with his friend Constipatio, now Jack did not like picnics in particular but his friend did and so Jack had said yes to the idea and they were leaving in half an hour. Little did he know that this picnic would save there lives.


Jack heard the doorbell and went to answer, it was Constipatio, “hello Jack ready for our outing?” said Constipatio, “Sure am mate,but how about turning it into an overnighter?” said Jack,”sure but that means carrying a lot more stuff,”said Constipatio. As they changed the plans Champlion
started arguing with a terrier on the street. When they were in the thick of it Constipatio opened the door, “be quiet Champ,” as Champlion slunk inside the terrier gave a parting yip. Constipatio picked up a rock and chucked it after him but the terrier was already gone.


As Constipatio walked back inside Jack said “what was that about?” “oh Champ was fighting with another dog, are we ready?” said Constipatio. Constipatio and Jack set out too there camping spot at about noon. Now it was only a short hike to the camping spot about 5 miles in all. They were planning on camping in a hilltop meadow, this meadow had quite the view, to the far east of the meadow was the great volcano prov., to the north the great forest, to the south was there dear village of Wensleydale , to the west was the great sea.


While they hiked along Jack noticed something,”were is Champlion?” He asked. “Oh he is probably off chasing rabbits,”said Constipatio. They soon reached the camp site and started cooking dinner. By the time they were finished eating Constipatio was getting worried Champlion was still not back,”have you seen Champ, Jack?” Just then they heard the most horrible wailing either of them had ever heard. “What is that?”said Jack, Champ came hurtling into the fire light and sobbed “help the village is gone!!!” “what!?” said Jack and Constipatio together. Then they noticed all was silent... and the stars were gone!!

Micah is right, if you will note the wording I said that "yes the dog was talking," but that does not mean he was a talking dog!!
