Norton the Evil toad.

Once upon a time in a land far, far away (okay not that far) in a mucky swamp, there lived a toad named Norton.  Now, Norton wasn't your average toad.  He was a wizard originally, but evil doings caused him to be transformed into a pink (yes...pink) toad.1

For many years, Norton had done good deeds to be transformed back into his human form, but the Supreme Council of Crappy Wizards said he had not proved  himself worthy, just yet.2

This made Norton very angry, yes VERY angry, and hence he went back to his evil ways upon the poor creatures of the nearby forest.3

"Norton, darling, this is not the time to be playing around with magic. The tadpoles are hungry!" exclaimed Emily, stirring the soup with her extendable tongue.4

"Emily, magic is a serious thing! You should know that, being a witch yourself. Anyway, I wasn't playing around, I was just concocting another death spell!" he replied frustratedly.5

"Yes, well that's all very well, but you do have responsibilities you know!" she said. Norton sighed. He stalked out of the house.6

Later on, Larkson, a peace loving panda, was sitting having a feast of endless bamboo. He was extremely content and had a massive grin on his face. Suddenly, just as he was about to have a large bite of bamboo, he heard a roar of laughter. Norton.7

"MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You stupid, wimpy panda! You fell right into my trap! I planted that drugged bamboo for you! HAHAHAHAHAHA" he bellowed. Larkson started to shout at him but found that he couldn't. He looked at the surface of a crystal clear lake near by and saw that he had no mouth. He burst into floods of tears.8

Hankerstein was rocking in his chair agitatedly by the fire. Everything was wrong with the world nowadays. Suddenly, he heard a knocking.9

"It's open!" he called. In hobbled an old looking female goat.10

" Have a carrot! As your such a kind goat, I shall give it to you for free!" she cried. Hankerstein groaned.11

"And why would I want a carrot from you?" he asked disapprovingly.12

"Aaahh, well you see it is five minutes till I die, and I was just trying to sell something in my entire life," she said cheerfully.13

"Oh, fine then. Give me a carrot!" he said finally. The goat hobbled over and popped it in his mouth. He swallowed. It was a very tasty carrot after all.14

" You fell for it you stupid stroppy goat! You really think that I am an old goat!" With that, the goat transformed into a pink toad. Suddenly, Hankerstein felt a strange feeling in his stomach. He grew and grew and in the end he exploded all around the room.15

Fredrick was sitting in a perfectly safe tree. He was a complete slack off, lazy and didn't do any work. His tail swished behind him. He could feel himself drifting off into a cloud of unconsciousness when...16

"Hello there handsome." He opened his eyes and saw the most beautiful monkey he had ever seen.17

"Err...err...hello..." he muttered. She fluttered her eyelashes. 18

"I came here to give you one, big kiss!" she said, grabbing him. Fredrick closed his eyes and puckered up. He felt one big kiss on his lips all right, but also a searing pain.19

“AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!” he screamed. Suddenly, the once beautiful monkey mutated and once again became Norton.20

“MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I ripped off your lips with my magic! Now, they will never grow back!” he mocked. 21

A shadow fell over Norton. As he looked up, he saw Squables, the sophisticated tiger, looming ahead.22

“Err…..hello Squables,” he said nervously, with no spell up his sleeve.23

“ Norton, you never were civilised enough for me, you know. Goodbye!” Squable casually said. A large striped paw came stamping down on Norton. He popped like a balloon and suddenly, now that he was dead, his insides change from being toadish to human. A head landed beside Squable’s paw.24

“He was even uglier as a human than he was a toad!” he stated.25
