Master Lox Returns



It was a horrible sight. Fires flashed. Money was lost.
Master Lox and his henchment destroyed the portals.

The only one who escaped was one Funkey, Scratches, who had the power of music. He managed to escape through a portal before it was
destroyed.

At the other side, was Kelpy Basin. He was looking for his relative,
Twing. When he got to her home, the door was broken.

There was a note. "We took Twing. Sincerely, Master Lox.
(P.S. Funkey Island)" Then, Scratches knew what he had to do.

He went to visit his friend, Glubs. He asked him to take him to
Funkey Island so he could save Twing.

When he got to the island, it was heavily guarded. He used the power of music to defeat the guards.

He traveled through forests and over hills till he found a castle made of
crystal. When he found the entrance, it was locked. All of a sudden,
a laser killed Scratches and somebody threw Twing's body over the castle
walls.

The End.

This epic poem was dictated and written by Alex Foyt, and not edited by anybody.

It was inspired by Funkeys and by the epic poem of Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh tried to get eternal life, but instead, returned to his town as a wiser man. In a way, Gilgamesh is immortal because his name was written on the city walls.
