One night, in new york, there was a husband and a wife with a baby. They were walking when suddenly a gun shot came. It was an evil cowboy called Texas Pete and his very cowardly, outrageously camp henchman, Skeleton. “What are you doing here?” Shouted a husband. “Get away from us!” Shouted a wife. “Let the baby go!” Shouted Tex. “Or I shall kill you both!” “Never!” Shouted a husband and a wife. “Go get them, Tex!” Shouted Skeleton evilly. Texas Pete and Skeleton chased after a husband and a wife. “Help us, Police!” They cried. But it was too late. Texas Pete was already going to shoot them. “Ahhhh, how sweet!” Said Tex. “Ow! Skeleton, the baby is trying to pull my mustach!” “All right, Tex. Now, my pretty baby boy,” Said Skeleton, “that’s naughty. Are you all right, Tex.” “No, Skeleton! I’m not all right!” Shouted Tex. “What?” Said Skeleton. “I am not all right!” Shouted Tex again. “The baby is so stupid. He’s so bulky. I’m gonna call him Bulk.” “Why are you going to call him Bulk?” Asked Skeleton. “I just think it’s a good idea because he will be an overweight fool with intense stupidity.” Said Tex. “Arrest Tex and Skeleton,” Shouted the leader of the coppers, “who murdered the baby’s mother and father!” “Quick, Skel!” Shouted Tex. “We’d better go back to our hideout!” As the years passed, Bulk grew into an overweight man. “Good morning, Skeleton!” Said Bulk. “Good morning, Bulk!” Said Skeleton happily. “I hope you slept well. You are my best friend ever.” “I certainly did, Skeleton.” Said Bulk. “After all, that’s what friends are for.” Tex woke up. “Morning, boys!” Said Tex. “Morning, Tex!” Said Bulk and Skeleton. “Today, we have pears. They’re really tasty.” Said Tex. And Tex began to sing. “One picks up the pear. The most best fruit ever! You can have pear pies or pear tarts. One picks up the pear. The most delicious thing ever!” Tex ate the pear. “There,” Said Tex, “now that was delicious, wasn’t it?” “It certainly was, Tex!” Said Bulk and Skeleton. “Now, Bulk.” Said Tex. “Yeah?” Said Bulk. “Outside of new york, there’s a Statue of Liberty.” Said Tex. “When you see a lovely roof at the top, you gotta see it. Before you and Skeleton can go back, throw him off first. Well, go now.” So Bulk and Skeleton went out of Tex’s hideout. They were walking down the street outside of new york. When they got to the Statue of Liberty, they climbed up the steps. “Tex said there’s a lovely roof at the top.” Said Bulk. “He would.” Agreed Skeleton. “And he wants us to see it.” Said Bulk. “There, isn’t it pretty?” “Oh,” Said Skeleton, “I suppose it is if you like that sort of thing. Oh. Oh, please, let’s go back.” “Uh, no.” Said Bulk. “Tex said I have to throw you off first.” “What?” Shouted Skeleton in a panic. “You is probably joking!” Then Bulk let go of Skeleton. “Whatever you do, don’t look down.” Said Skeleton to himself. “Ahhhhhh! Help!” In the treehouse, there was a teddy bear called Superted and his bumbling companion, Spotty. “Tell me the magic word, Superted.” Said Spotty. “No.” Replied Superted. “But I won’t tell anyone else.” Said Spotty. “Nop.” Said Superted. “But Superted, why can’t you tell me a magic word?” Asked Spotty. “Because it’s a secret.” Answered Superted. Then the screen came on. “Superted!” Shouted the leader of the coppers. “Calling Superted! There’s someone on the Statue of Liberty!” “I’ll just say my secret magic word.” Said Superted. So he said his secret magic word and he and Spotty flew to rescue Skeleton. The villain was ready to drive his van to Superted’s treehouse. “At last!” Said Tex to himself. “After all these years! If it wasn’t hard to find, just follow up the trails and you’re there.” Tex laughed evilly. “When I know that magic word, no one in the world will be safe.” Said Tex. “Now, where shall I hide these microphones? Ah ha! There. Evil Bulk will be able to hear his magic word.” Then Tex had an evil laugh. Back on the Statue of Liberty, Skeleton was slipping. Then the seagulls came and tickled his bones. Superted and Spotty came. But Skeleton fell. However, Superted managed to rescue him. Back at his treehouse, Superted and Spotty had a talk. “I think we should lock Skeleton up.” Said Spotty. “No. We can’t lock him up because he was afraid of heights. But what was he doing?” Said Superted. “I think Tex is up to something. He put a microphone on the football. Bulk doesn’t listen to my magic word unless he tells him too.” “What?” Shouted Bulk. “He’s just stupid, Spotty.” Said Superted. “Well if we ignore Bulk, would you like a game of football?” “Um, no thanks.” Answered Superted. “Bulk might spot my magic word.” “But Superted, Bulk is a nice man and is friends with Skeleton.” Explained Spotty. “Well don’t talk such nonsense, Spotty.” Said Superted. Back in new york, Texas Pete and Skeleton were on the boat. “Thanks for my arm, Tex.” Said Skeleton. “You’re very kind.” “Who are you calling kind?” Snarled Tex. “That you are, Tex.” Said Skeleton. “You’re very kind and generous.” “Generous?” Shouted Tex. “No one calls me generous and gets away with it!” “Tex, what are you doing? You’re not really kind or generous. You’re horrible and nasty and…! Ahhhhh!” Cried Skeleton. “Tex, don’t leave me here!” “Now I only hope Bulk’s listening.” Said Tex to himself. “Tex!” Shouted Skeleton. “Oh no! Not again!” Said Superted. “Who’s that, Superted?” Asked Spotty. “He looks like a coastguard, Spotty.” “Superted, hello! We need your help!” Shouted a coast guard. “We’ve recived someone floating in the sea a hundred miles off the coast!” “I’ll be right there!” Said Superted. “I’ll just say my secret my word.” “Yea?” Said Bulk excitedly. Bulk was overjoyed to hear his secret word. “I’ve heard it!” Shouted Bulk excitedly. “I think I’ll say my magic word, Spotty.” Bulk immediately said Superted’s magic word. Then he was ready to fly off. He sang. “Who’s a bear that flies through the air? Superted! Superted! SUPERTED!” Superbulk was flying through the sky. “It’s easy when you know how!” He said. “I can go backwards. Wa Hey! Oh no! Help! Whoaaah! Oh!” Superted and Spotty rescued Skeleton again. “I told you Tex was up to something.” Said Superted. “How did you know?” Asked Spotty. “He obviously wants to keep away from the treehouse. But why?” Explained Superted. “Come on, Spotty!” They put Skeleton down on the sand. Skeleton saw one of the seagulls who had got his arm. “Come back with my arm!” He shouted. “Oi you! Come back!” But the seagull didn’t come back. Back at Superted’s treehouse, Superted saw something. “There’s no one here.” Said Superted to himself. “Someone left a pear. It might be poisioned.” Just then, Spotty bumped into Superted. “You don’t think you’ve left a microphone, Superted.” Said Spotty. “I haven’t, Spotty.” Replied Superted. “It’s just that we’ve been bugged! We’d better go down and see.” “Well, it’s the least we can do.” Said Spotty. They went to Tex’s van. “If you hear the microphones, you can listen to anything.” Said Superted. “Let’s go inside. There’s no one but a shape of…… BULK!” Cried Superted and Spotty. “Come on, Spotty!” Cried Superted. “We’d better stop them or then we will be in trouble!” Meanwhile, Bulk was flying with the bees. He saw some flowers. He sniffed them but then sneezed! He bumped into Texas Pete in the tree. “OK, Bulk,” Said Tex, “Fun’s over. This is where you tell your uncle Tex the secret word.” But Bulk flew up. “Tex, I can fly just like a bee.” Said Bulk. “Don’t play games with me, you dummy!” Shouted Tex. “Tell me the word!” “Ah, don’t do that, Tex.” Said Bulk. “You’re spoiling my lovely costume. I only got it today.” “Tell me the word, Bulk, or I’ll tear you limb from limb!” Shouted Tex. “Don’t push, Tex!” Shouted Bulk. “Tell me!” Shouted Tex angrily. “You’re hurting!” Shouted Bulk. “Tell me the….!” Shouted Tex. “Tex!” Shouted Bulk. Then he punched his face. “I can take a few words at the time like that, Tex. And when you talk like that, the words go in my head, and I get very confused, and I don’t think you should do it again!” Shouted Bulk. He threw Tex to the tree trunk. “Bulk, how could you treat your best buddy like that?” Said Tex. “Look, there’s Tex!” Called Supeted. “How did he get up there?” Asked Spotty. “If he knew the magic word, maybe he flew there!” Said Superted. Tex fell but was saved by Bulk. “Are you really my best friend, Tex?” Asked Bulk. “Sure!” Replied Tex. “Well you’ve done too much trouble. If only you told me the magic word, we can both fly and you wouldn’t have to carry me.” “Yea!” Said Bulk. “Why didn’t I think of that?” “Probably because you’re too stupid.” Thought Tex. “I think it’s like abra kadabra.” Said Bulk. “We’ve almost got them!” Shouted Superted. “What do you do when you don’t get a pear?” Asked Tex. “It’s no use, Tex.” Said Bulk. “I’ve forgotten.” “You idiot!” Shouted Tex who knocked his head and fell to the ground. “All that trouble, he forgets the magic word?” Sobbed Tex. “Yea hey!” Shouted Bulk cheefully. “Come back here!” Shouted Tex angrily. Then he began to cry. “Bulk might know in a few minutes.” Said Superted. He and Spotty flew to the seaside. “By my calculation, Bulk should stop any moment now!” Said Superted. Then Bulk stopped and fell to the sea. “Ah hello, Skeleton.” Smiled Bulk. “Oh Bulk, my arm!” Said Skeleton. “I just knew you would come because you’re my best friend ever.” “Well, Skeleton,” Said Superted, “We’ll take you and Bulk to our treehouse in no time.” Later that night, Superted wasn’t very happy. “I can’t do it.” Sighed Superted. “Why not?” Asked Bulk. “Well if you can be my superhero, you can save people when they’re in danger. By the way, Tex is not trying.” Said Superted. “That’s right, Superted!” Said Bulk. “I’ll never see him again because he’s really evil.” The next day, Tex was eating a lot of pears. “That Bulk.” Said Tex angrily. “He doesn’t know the magic word. I think I’ll listen to the microphones again.” “I’ll just say my secret magic word, Bulk, Skeleton and Spotty.” Said Superted. “Ah ha!” Snarled Tex in an evil surprise. “Now I know. I’ll say my secret magic word.” Then he transformed into Evil Supertex! Then Tex flew threw the woods. “Do you think Tex said my magic word?” Asked Superted. “He did!” Cried Skeleton. “He’s the worst villain in the world!” “Come on, Spotty!” Shouted Superted. “Run!” “There’s no way you can run, Superted.” Hissed Tex. He chased after him and his friend, Spotty. But luckily, it was Superbulk to the rescue! “Thank you for saving us, Bulk.” Said Superted. “You’re the best hero ever!” Said Spotty. “You’re welcome, Superted and Spotty.” Said Bulk. “Because that’s what friends are for!” “I made a wax of pear, Superbulk.” Said Superted. “Will you give it to Tex?” “Of course, Superted.” Replied Bulk. He put a waxed pear on the tree trunk. “Well, what have we got here?” Said Tex in a surprise. “A pear!” He ate a pear and….. “Yuck! This pear is made of wax. BULK!” Roared Tex. “Oh no!” Cried Bulk. “It’s Tex!” Bulk flew as fast as he could. But Tex fell to the ground again. Then the coppers came. “There he is!” Shouted the leader of the coppers. “We’ve been looking for this evil cowboy for years! Arrest him!” “Noooooooooo!” Cried Tex, and was taken to jail for good. Everyone in new york were happy with Bulk. “Now, Bulk,” Said Superted, “I give you a medal!” “Thanks, Superted!” Said Bulk happily. “It’s nice to be friends with you and Spotty. Come on, Skeleton! Let’s go home!” Skeleton said the last words. “Bulk wouldn’t leave me all alone. Because it’s the end, he’s my friend.” And they lived happily ever after.



The End!
