“Thanks Peeps!’ said a grateful Juliana. Her friend had just saved her from the ugly greed demon. She wouldn’t have made it out of there if Penelope hadn’t tickled the demon. What a smart idea that was.
“Three hours have passed, the clock is ticking. Where do you suppose we could find the Sloth demon?” Penelope asked.
“Luck is on our side,” pointed Juliana. “Look over there!”
There was a path before them and it had signboards pointing to the caves of other demons. They noticed the Anger Demon’s cave. Juliana checked her survival map. “We should see the Envy Demon’s cave about thirty minutes from here. The Sloth Demon’s cave would be about two hours from Envy’s Lair.”
”I’m so tired from the walking already.” They kept going until they finally found the Sloth Demon’s cave.
“This is it,” declared Penelope. “We’ve one hour to get those pants back. We’ll need to lie quietly to wait for the Sloth Demon to fall asleep because we can act.”
“Great, we can finally rest our legs!” Juliana sat down beside Penelope but they soon dozed off because they were so tired.
Fifteen minutes later, the vibration of their iPhone jolted them awake. It was an sms from Chastity Jane. It read, “Get to work, you don’t have enough time!”
“She’s right,” said Juliana yawning. “We only have about forty five minutes to go before the brains of our bosses blow up. The Sloth demon is asleep. We’ve got to do something now.”
“Ok here’s the plan,” said Penelope. “We’ll have to get into the cave and surround his bed with the pig tails. This will hold the Sloth Demon down while we search for the pair of missing pants.”
Quietly, they sneaked into the cave of the Sloth Demon and did as planned. They dug the drawers and wardrobe. They searched but they couldn’t find it.
“We’re getting desperate here,” said Penelope. “Where do you think the Sloth Demon would hide a pair of stolen pants.”
“I see something under his pillow,” pointed Juliana.
Carefully, they lifted it head and pulled out the missing pants.
“Got it!” whispered Penelope. “Let’s get out of here now!”
They ran out of the cave. However to their dismay, a group of Big Wigs and Ssob creatures are standing outside.
“Why does it always happen that way?” complained Juliana. They drew their swords and decided to fight to the end.
“Lift their wigs!” yelled Penelope. “That will put them for now!”
They fought as hard as they could. They were going to get the pants safely back no matter what. “There are too many of them!”
“In here!” yelled Penelope to Juliana. They scamper into a corner under a tree.
“What are we going to do? We’re outnumbered. There is no way we are going to get of this place safely.”
“There is only one thing left to do, “said Penelope. They both joined their hands and prayed to the angels for help. Then miraculously in the sky, an army of the skunk people arrived. Both Penelope and Juliana cheered.
They came by the thousands and they released their skunk juice at the big wigs and Ssob creatures. There was a series of confusion as the enemies were attacked. The Skunk people fought viciously and drove the enemies deeper into the forest.
