Once, not so long ago, in a small town on the outskirts of Australia, there lived two very small but very intelligent twins called Harry and Kensington. One was shy and the other wasn’t. Kensington was shy because she didn’t like meeting new people but Harry on the other hand was very energetic as a cheeky cheetah and Kensington was as shy as a squeaky mouse. One day, they were sitting down in their monstrous, ginormous lab playing a nice quiet game of chess. Then this happened... as Kensington and Harry turned around they heard a strange noise. Boom! “What was that?” yelled Harry. Harry and Kensington were losing hope fast, they had to act quickly but as Harry looked outside he saw gargantuan chess pieces all over town smashing through tall, towered buildings. The problem was even though they were intelligent twins, they had no idea of what they were going to do. So Harry and Kensington did something very clever. They made a potion called, the Calm The Earth Down Potion. All they needed was a small TV and a piece of paper to eventually get an aqua coloured potion. They also needed a button to blow the potion up in the middle of the city. Harry and Kensington arrived in the middle of the city and said, “This is the end of you chess pieces.” Then they pressed the button. Boom! The potion exploded and the chess pieces returned back to normal sized chess pieces, just like they were before. After a few days of rest, Harry and Kensington felt proud of what they had done but they heard a strange noise. Did the potion work or did the potion have a malfunction? To be continued...
