Give the Dog a Bone!

By the St Mary's Gang

Have you ever heard the story of Rumbo the dog? It's a story filled with magic, mystery, danger and suspense.

Rumbo, the cute little pink-haired dog who lived in the desert, had a collection of bones. His favorite was a dinosaur bone that was green and chewy. He loved that bone more than any other. He was chewing on the dinosaur bone in an alley one evening, when Andrew, a smart magician, who was usually a pretty good guy, used his magic to make the bone disappear!

Rumbo was amazed that the bone vanished and even more amazed when he saw it reappear in Andrew's hand. When Andrew vanished in a cloud of smoke, Rumbo was stunned speechless.

Rumbo barked for his friend Bailey, a dog who was as big as an elephant, and asked for his help. They saw Andrew and chased him, but when Andrew threw the bone into a lake, the dogs stopped chasing him and jumped into the lake.

While swimming after the bone, they were pulled underwater by MERMAIDS! Bailey and Rumbo were fighting for their lives! The details here are sketchy, but somehow, the dogs escaped with the bone and got to shore.

Andrew was arrested, but did not stay in jail long, because - well, because he's magic, of course. As he disappeared, he was heard to shout, "I'll be back!"

The end.
