Hey!
I was REALLY bored, and while browsing my blog, I found my entry of the Siopao Brothers. OMG! I totally forgot I was supposed to write even more stories of them!! I really liked my idea of Sio and Pao, (because my love for siopaos must have inspired me) so I wanted to create the next chapter.
In the previous entry, the Siopao Brothers were stuck in a ship, and managed to survive the humans from being eaten. And while onboard, they met Hannah! And finally, they have arrived at Natatic Island! (Or was it a city?)
“Arrival at Natatic Island”
”I can smell the fresh air!” Sio cried. “You can’t smell anything, Sio. Since we’re siopaos and siopaos don’t have any noses to smell,” Pao replied. “Gee, you love to shatter dreams, don’t you?” Sio grumbled. “Anyway,” Hannah interrupted, “I can smell the fresh air, too, Sio.” “That’s great, but I just want to head to a city or something,” Sio quickly replied. “You change moods easily, Sio,” Hannah muttered. “That’s the kind of siopao Sio is!” Pao whispered back. “Also, Sio, there isn’t any city in here,” he added. Sio got startled. “WHAT?! There’s no city?!” Pao smirked. “Of course. Have you ever heard of an island that has a city in it?” he said. “He’s right, Sio,” said Hannah. “But there’s the Island of Mauritius and it has a couple of big houses in it!” Sio cried. “It’s called a town, not a city, Sio.” Hannah explained. “Plus cities have tall buildings.” While the three were so busy chatting and weren’t moving anywhere, people around Hannah began to wonder why was she talking with food.
“Why is that girl talking to siopaos?!” said one. “Young people often feel lonely, you know,” said a grandpa. “she’s probably making an imaginary friend.” “Makes sense, gramps,” replied another.
”Psst, hey, is it me or is people around us gossiping?” Pao whispered. Hannah looked around. “You’re RIGHT! We totally forgot we were in an island, not an All-You-Can-Chat-Island! ARGH!” Hannah screamed. She picked up Sio and Pao in her arms, and sped off while Sio asked, “What’s an All-You-Can-Chat-Island?” “It’s basically an island, Sio.” Pao said. Hannah ran at breakneck speed and arrived at a little town called Sandy Town. “Why is it called Sandy Town when there isn’t much sand?” Sio asked. “You ask way too much questions, Sio.” Pao told him. “Poor Hannah is tired from chatting with us.” But actually Hannah was very tired from running. They found the villagers very warming and welcomed them. They stayed at a little hut for FREE. Imagine that! “Wow! Staying at a house for free! How cool!” Sio squealed. “It’s called a hut, Sio,” Hannah corrected. “But there must be a catch. You don’t give away huts for free all the time,” Pao said with a cautious voice. “C’mon now, Pao! Don’t be stingy!” Sio told him in a cheery voice. “Stingy?!” Pao cried. “I’m not stingy! I’m only saying that staying in hats - I mean huts, or whatever you call them is weird!” “Now, now you two. Let’s just relax and head to the beach!” Hannah cried, clapping her hands. She slipped on her bathingsuit and raced for the beach (with Sio and Pao of course) and happily splashed in the water. Except for the Siopao Brothers, who can’t swim, stayed in the sand to build sandcastles and stuff. While playing for a long time, it began to get very hot. “It’s so hot! I want to take a shade in something!” Sio complained. “I must agree with you,” Pao said. They scanned the beach in some place not hot, and eventually found a tall sandcastle. “Look! A palace! Let’s stay inside!” Pao cried. “What if the owner doesn’t like strangers?” Sio said. “They won’t mind, Sio. It’s very hot and I’m sure the owner will understand.” Pao replied. “You’re right, Pao! Let’s go!” They headed inside the sandcastle and stayed there for a long time. Bu then suddenly, a man with his dog came walking by. The dog caught the scent of the Siopao Brothers and broke out of its leash. It charged for the sandcastle. OH NO! Sio and Pao!! Get out of the waaay!!!
The dog destroyed the sandcastle and Sio and Pao were sent tumbling. “The sun! It burns!” Sio cried. “What are you, a vampire?” Pao said. “No…” Sio replied slowly. The dog glared at them and began to chase them around. “Tex! Don’t steal other people’s food!” the dog’s owner cried. Then he looked at the sandcastle. “And you ruined someone’s castle!” The dog continued to chase them around and around, as the Siopao Brothers ran for their lives. “Being chased by a dog is a total NIGHTMARE!” Sio screamed. They ran and ran until Hannah spotted them. She scooped Sio and Pao in her arms and shooed the dog away. That was close!!
For the rest of the day, they spent at the beach, and after a few days, they left Natatic Island. “Yahoo! Natatic Island was fun! Where are we going next?” Sio asked. “Back home, Sio,” Hannah replied. “HUH? Our journey is over?!” Sio cried. Even Pao had to agree. “We have to visit father again. But I promise you’ll have lots of adventures back there!”
Meanwhile, with the villagers…….
“Did you see those white, fluffy things the girl brought with her?”
“Yes, I did. They were so adorable!”
“I agree. I let them stay in a hut for free!”
“Lucky you!”
0_o So that explains why the hut was free. Pao was right! Anyway, I hoped you liked the story. Pretty long, and they talked most of the time. But I was REALLY BORED. (Psst! I got braces! I have to admit, I look like a nerd.)
