August,
11, 1928 in New York City, a new museum was opening in 3 weeks and the museum’s
founder, Mr. Mole, wanted a very rare item called the Staff of Rockness. The
Staff of Rockness is said to be on the mythically island called The Island of
the Last Kind. Some sailors say the island is very real, but it’s also said to
be cursed. Mr. Mole and his investors Mr. Hunter and Termite tried to find the
greatest explorers to find the Staff of Rockness, but they all turned down.
Mole only had one more explorer left, probably the best of today, and his name
is Stork. Stork was not only an explorer, but he was also professor at City College of New York. Stork taught World History and knew a lot about the past.
Now we go to Stork heading into the museum. “Welcome Mr. Stork, welcome to the
Museum of New York,” said Mr. Mole while shaking Stork’s hand. “So, what do you
want from me,” asked Stork. “Come with me to my office,” said Mr. Mole. Now we
go to Mr. Mole and Stork at Mr. Mole’s office. “Look, you are the only explorer
left that could handle such a mission,” said Mr. Mole. “What is the quest,”
asked Stork. “Have you ever heard of the Staff of Rockness,” asked Mr. Mole.
“No not really,” said Stork. “Well, it’s on an island that may not even exist,
that island is called the Island of the Last Kind, sailors say it’s real, but
they’re scared to explore it, they say the men who went on this mysterious
island were never seen again, but you with your years of experience can, maybe
can, survive,” said Mr. Mole. “So how much does it pay,” asked Stork. “I’ll pay
you about $900 if you bring it back, now, can you do it,” asked Mr. Mole.
“Sure, I need the money,” said Stork. Then Stork and Mr. Mole shook hands. “Now
Mr. Stork, a ship at the city’s harbor will be waiting for you at dawn and…,”
said Mr. Mole. Then Mr. Mole heard a knock on the door. “Come in…those must be
my investors,” said Mr. Mole. Then two men walked in, but it wasn’t Mr. Hunter
or Termite. “Hello, my name is Hawk, and this is Deer, I’m a famous movie
producer at Lixey Bros. Studios, and
Deer is a cameraman, I overheard you two talking about a mysterious island, we
want to film it, so what we’re asking is that can we bring a film crew with you
when you go on this island,” asked Hawk. “Sure, get your movie crew ready
tomorrow at dawn,” said Mr. Mole. Then Mr. Mole and Hawk shook hands, and now
the quest for the Staff of Rockness begins!
Stork
was getting ready to go to the Island of the Last Kind, and then his nephew
Zach walked in. “Uncle Stork, don’t tell me you’re going on another adventure,”
said Zach. “Look Zach, I know your parents asked me to watch you, but I need to
go on this quest, I’m being given a lot of money for it,” said Stork. “Look I’m
old enough, could I go with you,” said Zach. “You’re only 15, and if you die on
this quest your parents will kill me,” said Stork. “Please, I promise I will be
good,” said Zach. “Fine you can come, pack your things and be ready at dawn,”
said Stork. “Thank Uncle Stork, you’re the best,” said Zach. Then Zach started
packing. “Bark old buddy, come here boy,” yelled Stork. Then Bark ran to his
master. “Now Bark, you are coming with me okay buddy boy,” said Stork. Then
Bark started licking Stork. “Alright, now let’s get ready,” said Stork. Soon it
was dawn and Stork was waking up Zach. “Time to go,” said Stork. “Five more
minutes,” said Zach tiredly. Soon Stork, Zach, and Bark were at the harbor,
also at the harbor where the movie crew from Lixey
Bros. Studios. “Hello Mr. Stork, you
remember me right,” asked Hawk. “Yah, you’re the movie producer from
Lixey Bros. Studios,” said Stork. “You
also remember my cameraman Deer right,” asked Hawk. “Yes, now can we get on the
ship or not,” asked Stork. “So ready for adventure Mr. Stork,” said a
mysterious voice. It was the ship’s captain. “Hello, my name is Captain Insane
Dog Catcher, the museum hired us to be your crew today, get on my ship now
whoever is brave enough to go,” said Captain Insane Dog Catcher. Soon everybody
was on the ship. “Let’s go to the Island of the Last Kind,” yelled Captain
Insane Dog Catcher. Soon the steamboat was leaving the harbor. Now we go to
Zach talking to Hawk. “Ah Mr. Hawk, since you’re with Lixey Bros. Studios, I
was wondering if you know if an acting job was open,” asked Zach. “Why,” asked
Hawk. “I want to be a famous movie star, I went to acting classes, and since
you’re in the biz, I think you can hook me up,” said Zach. “Yah, when the stock
market crashes,” said Hawk sarcastically. Then Hawk went to his room. “Damn,
people are right, movie producers are assholes,” said Zach to himself. So now
our heroes are at sea, but can they make it to the Island of the Last Kind?
We’ll have to wait and see!
