ok guys, we all know this one. We keep a story going as long as possible.

OK....starting now





ONCE apon a time, in a cosy stone cabin, lived a lovely girl.

10 Nov 04:30
This lovely girl her name was Lolly. She loved to make all sorts of candy. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

10 Nov 04:57
And there standing was this wonderfully hansom man. She asked his name, and with a deep throated laugh, he pronounced he was Willie Wonka's illegitamate son, and he was here to offer her a chance to work at the Willie Wonka Candy factory and create new and different num-nums

Lolly's eyes lit up, this was the chance of a lifetime for one such as herself! She promptly asked; "Why sir, you are my dream come true, whatever do I have to do?"

10 Nov 16:40
With a laugh and a giggle, he walked off through the rain, "give me a day, and i'll see what we can do." Without another world, he was gone for that day.

10 Nov 20:18
Lolly began to pack her bags getting ready for her new adventure. Filled with happiness she had to tell someone. Then she heard a crash from the other room. When she ran to see what it was she was suprise to see a horror disfigured man. "oh no a zombie!"

10 Nov 20:29
thinking quickly, Lolly grabbed some leftover spaghetti and threw it at the zombie, hoping it would mistake it for brains!

(lol!)

10 Nov 20:35
the zombie wasn't fooled by the spaghetti though & quickly advanced on her, licking his lips at the thought of making her his next meal!

10 Nov 22:17
Lolly was frozen with fear. just as the zombie was about to grab her, Willie Wonka's illegitimate son breaks through a window and tackles the zombie to the floor.

11 Nov 01:20
After an increasingly brutal fight to the death, and a wicked bite from the Zombie, Willie Wonka's illegitimate son wins, and completely dismembered the body. As Lolly was fixing up the wound on his arm, she noticed that where there should be clots of blood forming a scab, there is what seems to be Crystalized sugar...

11 Nov 02:50
she is surprised and wonders what to do.

11 Nov 03:29
Before she can even think, there's another sound outside, and she sees a shadow pass the window... was that a... candy cane?

11 Nov 03:34
curious, she crept towards the window to take a look

11 Nov 03:53
Lolly suddenly finds herself face to face with Mr. Mint from Candy Land. his red stripes running in the rain, dripping from the blade of his candy axe like blood and pooling at his feet.


(thought our story could use some pics ;)

11 Nov 09:44
She invites him into the house, so he doesn't completely melt. He seemed nice enough...

"MR. MINT!" Willie Wonka's illegitimate song exlaims with delight and suprise in his voice, "What are you doing here?".

"Well I was just out going to ... erm... Meet up with Queen Frostine.. to uh... ya know.. hang out. Anyway, uhm, what are you doing here Frank", says the suddenly nervous Mr. Mint

"Finding a wonderful candymaker", He glances at Lolly with a smile and a wink, "well glad to see you man. Hey, uhm... could you help me out?". Frank shows him the wound.

Lolly could barely see over Mr. Mints ginormous shoulders, but she thinks she saw mr mint break a part of his candycane axe off and meld it into franks wound. The next chance she gets, she looks at Frank's arm, and she see's its completely healed.

11 Nov 14:49
She is amazed, and wonders what she has stumbled upon.

11 Nov 20:47
Frank, now fully healed, bids them both a sweet goodbye. "I came back to help when I saw the zombie... now that you're in ...uhm...capable hands... I'll be on my way. I'll come by again tomorrow, Lolly!" and he skipped out the door.

Mr. Mints turns to Lolly with a large, cavity-filled grin...

12 Nov 03:32
"uhm... *clears throat*... so uhm... hi", Says the awkward and confused Lolly.

" I suppose you're wondering what I just did to him arn't you?", asks a knowing Mr. Mint.

"oh, haha, that?! Nooo, of course not... haha... uhm... *awkward silence* buuut, since you brought it up".

"haha, well...

14 Nov 16:11
"... that is something you will understand when the time is right." Mr. Mint said mysteriously.
Lolly cocked her head slightly, confused at the odd response. Then she cleared her throat again and tried to compose herself... "Um... well, Mr. Mint..... sir.... would you... would you like to come in for a cup of tea, perhaps?"

15 Nov 04:05
"OH NO" Mr. Mint says in a polite but nervous voice. "The heat from the tea would melt me. You see, I am made completely of sugar. We all are".

"we... who is we"

"Me, Frank, the-"

"FRANK?!"

"oh... uh... he ... didn't he tell you"

[DUN DUN DUN!!!]

15 Nov 20:14
"No! ... I...but...am I?"

"am I made of sugar?"

16 Nov 02:59
"haha" says Mr. Mint, "well, not as far as I know. Only those from the sugarcane falls are made of sugar"

17 Nov 02:22
Lolly was curious to find out more about Sugarcane Falls, but before she could ask him anything about it, Mr. Mint spoke up. "I should get going," he glanced over at her open suitcase on the bed. "and looks like you still have some packing to do."

17 Nov 03:35
Lolly smiled, glancing back at the suitcase herself. "Yes, yes I suppose I do. Very well then, Mr. Mint... until we mee---" she stopped abruptly, as she had turned back to him to find him vanished... leaving naught but the scent of peppermint in the air.
