August 21st, 2019. My teacher had a very old, rusty bell he kept for many years. He pulled it out of a special, little box and put it on the table in front of the class. Posting this now, I do not remember the exact details of the assignment. The instructions probably went somthing like, "Look at this old, rusty bell and write a story about it."
A long time ago in a field of green rolling hills far, far away, a shepherd and his flock of sheep were suddenly startled by quite a loud, explosive sound. It was early morning, just as
the sun was beginning to peek through the mountain tops and the beams of light were shining down on the pasture and the sheep. Understandably, the shepherd nor his sheep were anticipating such a loud commotion at an incredibly early hour. The shepherd then noticed some rocks in the distance tumbling down the mountain side. He carefully decided to go investigate the ruckus. Angered by the loud noises waking him from his peaceful sleep he spoke under his breath to his sheep as he made his way across the field.
"I'm sick and tired of this garbage man. These sheep smell like a gym sock full of moldy cheese and I'm tired of sleeping out here like some kind of animal. I'm
an interior design major for crying out loud! I'm not a Bible major."
Before he could finish his next sentence, his face was too busy colliding with the ground. It seemed as though Stanley the sheep had collapsed and died. The shepherd, now even more angry, saddled up a second sheep, hopped on, and proceeded with his march across the field.
"My mom says I'm big boned", he told himself reassuringly as he took a bite of his Popeyes chicken sandwich with extra mayonnaise, large fry, two biscuits,
and a Diet Dr. Pepper to balance it out.
As they neared the mountain side, the shepherd noticed an angelic ray of heavenly
light shine upon the mouth of a cave in the mountain. They heard the approaching steps of a four-legged beast walking towards them from inside the cave accompanied by the faint sound of ominous music. The shepherd began to shake with fear, for this was not in the job description. Even more shaky were the legs of the sheep beneath him struggling to support his 350-pound frame. Even so, the steps drew ever nearer. Suddenly its head appeared from the shadows of the cave with the sound of 40 loud trumpets exclaiming its arrival. The shepherd dropped his Diet Dr. Pepper and fell to the ground in a faint with nothing but mayonnaise and a half eaten biscuit oozing from his mouth.
The beast then started shouting some inaudible hullabaloo from the cave, but no one could hear it over the sound of the trumpets, not to mention the sheep don't speak English and the shepherd was passed out. The sheep then kicked the shepherd in the face to wake him up. The shepherd put his oozing mayonnaise and biscuit in his pocket to save for later, then focused his attention on the shouting beast. The beast, having noticed he's just shouting at sheep and an obese shepherd, then turned off his boom box, hence silencing the incessant trumpets. The beast came down from the cave to greet the shepherd.
"Behold, my name is Geoff", the beast said. The shepherd simply could not
believe his eyes. He was a little skeptical to believe what he was seeing, having smacked his head on the ground a couple times before the sun even came up, but it was all too real. There were no other words for it, the beast was no beast at all, but yet a rainbow-colored sheep with hair like a clown's wig, crooked teeth, big beady eyes, a big forehead, 6 legs, and timberland boots on 4 of his feet. Geoff then explained he was from the planet Gyro and he was being chased across the galaxy by an evil billy goat named Richard who wanted the infinity sheep bell of power because he thought he was the greatest of all time.
Geoff continued to say his spaceship malfunctioned and crashed into the side of the mountain and the infinity sheep bell was lost. Geoff emphasized that if the infinity sheep bell of power ever fell into the wrong hands it could lead to the loss of half the
population of the universe.
They say the bell of power was eventually found and entrusted to a very unsuspecting human to Keep secret and out of the wrong hands. Even to this day
Richard still hunts for the infinity sheep bell of power and will destroy anything in his path to get to it.
