Birdis v.s. Wormsly

by Valerie

 

 

It all started when Birdis and Wormsly were taking a walk through the woods. Birdis said in a devilish manor, "I bet you can't do this."

Then he took off, flying through the air and caught a butterfly in his mouth and ate it.

Then Wormsly said, "Well I bet you can't see those two ants fighting down that hill."

Birdis looked and couldn't see a thing. They began to argue, saying who could do what and who was better than the other.

Finally, Wormsly smirked, "The only one that can settle this is Artemis."

They both went to Mt. Olympus where Artemis was next to Zeus.

"Birdis and I are having a problem. I think that I am better than him and Birdis has this stupid idea that he is better than me," complained Wormsly.

Then Birdis argues, "No, you're the one that seems to think that you are better than me."

Wormsly and Birdis began fighting again. They forgot all about Artemis being there watching them.

She got a headache listening to them yell and was starting to get angry.

Finally she had had more than enough and made it so they couldn't talk. Artemis was nice enough to give Birdis a beautiful voice for singing. Artemis really liked singing and music, so this was a good thing for her. Then Artemis, the goddess of hunters and wisdom, turned the two friends against each other.

All of a sudden, Birdis gulped Wormsly right down. He tasted so good that he went searching for more little Wormslys.

Zeus took some part in this. He changed Birdis to "bird" and Wormsly to "worm".

From then on, all birds hunted and ate worms.
