nooo... must..... wake.... up!
With that last burst of energy, Shendron finally shook himself from the spell his mother had cast on him. He had known all throughout the dream that something was wrong. He had noticed the one fatal flaw in his mother's dream spell: everything had been too normal!
At last now he had broken free. Now he could stand and defend himself against his mother. But wait... Where had they gone? All he could see in the room now was a toppled over nightstand, and a large, oblong blue object moving about in the middle of the room. Every now and then he heard what sounded like either muffled screaming or the noise those machines at Milky Lane make when churning out choc-strawberry icecream. He couldn't decide which noise this was, so he left the blue object alone for now, not wanting to mess with something that could possibly be making ice-cream for him!
He decided now to try and discover where these light patterns on his bedroom floor were coming from. Although in the day time he would not have been bothered as the light would have merely been the result of sunlight streaming through the forest canopy, it seemed very mysterious indeed. More mysterious than the 8th wonder of the world, in fact, although not anywhere near as tasty. He wondered if he would have noticed the light if his wife had put up that roof they had been talking about for so long. But then in the middle of a forest, there really isn't much need for a roof, or so he had convinced his wife.
The light patterns seemed to be formed from a light source somewhere near the kitchen...
As he neared the kitchen he saw it. Between the crack in the grocery cupboard doors, he could see the bright source of light. Of course! The glowworms!! How could he have forgotten to bottle them up again. But then he remembered that his wife had used the only bottle in the house to store the cherry marmalade. That same bottle was now stuck on one of his hands....
WAIT! How could he have been so stupid! His wife had made the cherry marmalade! Which meant that she would have to be in on the plan with his mother!
