Riddles this week by Hong-Sheng Lu ------------------------------------------------------- S.S.A.A: The End Peanut turned, about to snap at Val, who had stepped on his tail. Before he could complain, a bright light seared through the vent. A cool, evil voice echoed through the tunnel. "Hello S.S.A.A agents. What a nice surprise." Marty was there, pointing a DeathX200 at his head. To his disgust, he saw Valentine creeping away down the tunnel to escape as it turned dangerous. "Join me, Peanut. You know you can never win." "Never!" growled Peanut, thinking bitterly of his chicken companion. "Well then, I guess-" All of a sudden, a sharp voice cut through the air. "Marthanel Gregory Houston McDonel!!! What have I told you about carrying around weapons of mass destruction?!" "Mo-om! I'm kind of busy here!" he whined. "Come here this instant young rodent!" Grabbing his ear, his mother dragged him out of sight, still complaining. Okay...that was odd..how? He thought. Spotting Valentine, who was smiling in the corner, Peanut said gruffly "Good job agent. And...thanks." They padded side-by-side down the tunnel, back to headquarters. That should hold Marty for a while... ................................. "But not for long! I will have my revenge!"

"Peanut, Val, you’re in charge of getting inside information. Kelly, you and Jules are in charge of weaponry and me," Bella paused, making sure everyone was caught up. "I will be in charge of planning the operations." Bella's eyes scanned them. Peanut and Valentine looked at each other in astonishment. They really needed to learn to get along. "You all might as well get organized. Meet back in an hour and I will have your plans ready." Bella sighed. This would be dangerous. She only hoped that her agents would be up to the plan she was about to make... To be continued... By: Emma and Brooke |

1.Mr. Slerigh is a night watchman in a
large company. On a certain morning when Mr. Slerigh wants to go
home, his boss tells him: "I'll go for a business trip to
Norway. Tomorrow I will depart from Heathrow airport." Mr.
Slerigh however advises him to take a boat. "Why should I?"
asked the president. "This night I dreamed that the plane to
Norway crashes, just before it will land," is the response. The
president smiles first, but since he is pretty superstitious he
decides to take the boat. When he arrives in Norway, he is told that
the plane which he should have taken had crashed. When the president
returns from the trip, he gives a big reward to Mr. Slerigh and
immediately fires him. Why? 2. This is the Einstien Riddle: There are 5 houses in 5 different

Valentine breathed deeply, trying to not let his anger get the best of him. Still, that rat was very annoying. "Ehem!" Bella called, attracting the attention of the arguing creatures. She gave them a glare that only a well-trained teacher could give. "We need to get back on subject. Emma, my owner for those who don't know, has been talking about the strange behavior of a certain teacher, whose name is currently classified information. Normally, I'd dismiss the behavior as the work of sleepless-ness, but this sounds like brainwashing." Val gulped, and then let a deep growl run through his throat. He had to appear tough. Otherwise, he would never fit in. Plus, he wanted to teach that rat a lesson. Again, Bella interrupted his thoughts. "Now, I'm going to assign our squads..." To be continued (yet again)....

Peanut gasped, "Danger? What is it?" "We don't know the details, but we suspect our old foe, Marty the chipmunk!" "Marty?! That traitor! He called me a sewer rat!" Peanut growled. "We need to get in there and find out what's going on. There will be five going on this mission. Kelly, Jules, Peanut and myself. We also have a newcomer named Valentine." Bella announced. "What type of animal is she?" Peanut asked curiously. Bella coughed. "He, actually is a Cat. On a diet, but high energy. He should be able to burn some of those calories now."

Kelly glanced around, making sure no one was watching. Quietly she slipped down the ally. Pushing her nose against the trash can, she jumped down into the hole under it. She raced down the passage, stopping to do a pawprint scan which opened the door to the S.S.A.A's headquarters. She walked into the meeting room, sitting down to wait for the others.

Our humans at Hanes Middle school are in grave danger." To be continued... |

| What Am I Riddles | ||

I can be found where anything cannot; dead men eat me all the time, but if a living man eats me, he'll die. What am I? Three lives have I. Gentle enough to soothe the skin. Light enough to caress the sky. Hard enough to crack rocks. What am I? I'm as small as an ant, as big as a whale. I'll approach like a breeze, but can come like a gale. By some I get hit, but all have shown fear. I'll dance to the music, though I can't hear. Of names I have many, Of names I have one. I'm as slow as a snail, but from me you can't run. What am I? I get whiter when I get dirtier. What am I? Post your answers on the comments! |
