SPIKE

Page Three

Spike was at the beach.  He walked along, struggling with his inner tube.  Spike was soon stuck.  Spike:  Uncle Bulk!  Spike loses his balance and falls onto the sand.  Bulk pokes his head out of a huge hole he is digging.  The back of Bulk's head is facing Spike.  Bulk:  Can't you see I'm busy?  What is it?  Spike:  I'm stuck.  Bulk:  Me too.  I can't decide whether I should make a sand sculpture of a samurai in full armor or a sand castle with a real moat!  I'm stuck!  Spike:  No.  I'm stuck!!  Later, Spike managed to get himself out of the inner tube.  Bulk is enjoying himself, still in the hole he had dug for himself.  Spike gears himself up to jump into the water.  As Spike runs past Bulk, Bulk shouts out, don't do it!  Spike causes a huge splash in the wading pool he has jumped into.  The water splashes all over Bulk.  Spike notices and starts laughing.  He asks Uncle Bulk if he is still stuck?  Bulk doesn't answer, he just sprays water out of his mouth.

Spike and Bulk were sitting in the park, holding their "swords" in front of them, meditating.  Bulk:  Meditate on the image of your samurai sword cutting through injustice as easily as a knife slices into cake.  Spike laughs.  Spike:  What kind of frosting?  I like vanilla!  Spike opens his eyes and sees Mooger standing in front of him.  Spike:  Monsters!  The Mooger runs.  Several more Moogers run past Spike with a rickshaw and a bride, screaming, inside it.  Spike quickly gets up.  Bulk:  No, not monsters, cake.  Spike:  No....monsters!  Bulk opens his eyes and sees in the distance, several Moogers carrying a rickshaw with a bride on it.  Bulk quickly gets up and joins Spike as they watch the Moogers vanish through a gap.  Bulk:  We're too late.  Spike:  Bummer!  Bulk:  Huge Bummer!  Spike:  So, do you think there is any leftover cake?  The next day, Spike and Bulk were back at the park, meditating with their "swords".  After awhile, they could hear screaming.  Bulk comments there has been a lot of weddings lately.  Later that day, Spike and Bulk went into a bakery in the city.  Spike is in front of a cupcakes and doughnuts shelves.  Bulk is looking with longing, at another shelf of doughnuts.  Spike can't decide which one he wants.  Bulk gets annoyed and walks over to Spike.  He tells Spike, this in not what I meant when I told you to imagine your samurai sword cutting through injustice, easily as a knife slices into cake.  Spike doesn't respond.  Bulk shakes his head and goes back to gazing at the doughnuts he would like to have.  Spike comments, let me slice into the vanilla cupcake's injustice.  Bulk shakes his head.  Spike laughs.  Bulk buys lots of goodies and they start to head out. There is a bit of a jam at the door, as Emily and Jayden try to walk in as Spike and Bulk try to leave.  After a bit of jostling, Emily and Jayden make their way in.  Bulk is carrying several boxes of goodies and Spike laughs at him as they walk out.
