Adventures In A Poisoned Foodchain
Termy Thunker was a radioactive mouse. Termy had just recently escaped from a scientific research laboratory. The radioactivity had made Termy so big that he was able to overpower the scientist by biting his hand off. The commotion allowed time for Termy to escape. However, Termy was a mouse the size of a small dog. A mouse that big is pretty rare and gets noticed. Termy went for the forests outside of the city. He figured that the further he could get away from the laboratory, the less chance he had of them finding him. He ran for hours and hours. He finally reached the outside of the city and disappeared into the forest. Suddenly, a snake jumped into sight and swallowed Termy whole. The snake was named Raoi. Raoi was now infected with radioactivity. She began to get longer and larger. However, just then a bird swooped down and ate the snake. The bird, named Squabby became radioactive. Squabby began to get bigger. now at that moment, the scientist from the laboratory was relaxing with his family at a nearby cottage in the woods. The scientist was recovering from his hand being chewed off. The scientist's brother was out hunting. He spied the now gigantic Squabby and shot her down. The hunter took the giant bird back to the cottage for supper. The scientist was sleeping and did not see the bird until it was on his plate at dinner. Though still struggling to eat with only one hand, the scientist still ate several large portions of the bird. Very soon after, the whole family was sick with radiation poisoning. The scientist's family all died, leaving the scientist to be a one handed bitter man--much weakened by the poisoning and grief.
