red

After some hours of wandering,
Abbie and Pengin started to get cold.

They leaned Penguin's bicycle against a tall tree and made a fire to keep warm.

Abbie was roasting marshmallows when Penguin noticed something weird above them in the darkness.

It was a streak of light in the sky.
"Bicycle?" Penguin speculated.
It fell behind a nearby tree.

*BOOM*
The crash was so loud, Abbie dropped a marshmallow she was about to eat. 
Penguin jumped on her bicycle and rushed to the rescue,
with Abbie close behind. 
But what they found wasn't a bicycle at all.
A bright star had crashed into the ground.
But the strangest thing was...

The two monkeys trying to pull it out!

With the four of them working together,
it was easy to dislodge the star!

Abbie shared her marshmallows with the gang, including the star (whose name was Red).

The monkeys' names were Mesus and Bad One,
but you probably knew that already.
After marshmallows they waved goodbye to Red; stars have a lot of very important things to do.

The four new friends sat still for a few moments in the darkness.


And then, there was Red! Rising up over distant treetops.
Abbie stomped out the fire.
Penguin hopped on her bicycle.
And off they went on a new day's adventure.
