The King and The Queen

[Queen]

Cinderella was notorious for losing her glass slipper. On this particular day, Queen was looking for that particular slipper, because if that princess was silly enough to lose it once she was bound to lose it again. After all, finders keepers was an equally notorious saying. And where better to look for a lost slipper, than the one place everything is destined to end up in. The scrapyard.

However, she couldn't find it in the collosal heap of junk, so she began searching the surrounding area, wondering if it had fallen off. She found tap-dance shoes, slippers shaped like a fuzzy red animal, and snow shoes, but not her glass slipper. Dejectedly, she began walking away from the scrap heap, when she caught a glimmer flicker around a wall. She peered around the other side, hopefully, and made a shocking discovery. An item, like she'd never seen before.

[King]

King was having an intense staring match with an insolent goggled, golden plush toy, as he sat atop his pile of treasure. Or at least, what he knew as treasure, for most people would look at it as a pile of junk. However, his expression became irritated, as he felt another pair of eyes on him.

How dare anyone double team me!, he thought peevishly. He turned to look at the new enemy, repositioned his shiny plastic crown as it slipped, and sat up as regally as he could childlishly muster. But once again, his silly expression soon changed, to one of suspicion. After all, he was a very important man. At least, according to himself he was. And very important men were often the targets of assassins. Assassination was completely unnacceptable.

Standing up in an outraged, childish fit, he pulled a loaf of french bread out of a jar of elongated objects and demanded:

"Bow before your God!", and once again repositioned his hat.

[Queen]

It was glorious and holy. A shining, most splendid hat, like none she'd ever seen before. She stood in astonished, appreciative silence as she tried to take it all in.

She was shocked back into reality as a voice from above yelled, and realized there was someone underneath the hat.

"Bow before your God!" it had yelled. Queen obeyed, and immediately slapped her hands to the floor and touched her forehead to the ground. A revelation dawned on her. She had seen God. Who else could own such a hat? It was God that stood before her with a pout on his face, brandishing a loaf of French bread, as if it were a mighty scepter.

[King]

As opposed to what he had expected, King was suprised to find the small, strange creature plop itself immediately onto the floor. He stared dumbly at the curled up mass as he took a bite out of a long stick of bread he had realized was in his hand, and began to walk curiously towards the tresspasser.

King scrunched up his face as he debated what to do with it. However being who he was. he never spent much time thinking about anything, and settled for poking it with the tip of his shoe.

"Hey," he began curiously, taking another bite of bread, and vengefully kicking the insolent yellow toy, "What are you doing on my floor?"

[Queen]

...Did I bow the wrong way..? Queen thought in confusion. She reviewed all the ways of bowing she'd seen performed and decided this would be the right one. She looked up hesitantly, not knowing how to answer, and found herself staring at a yellow toy. She stared at it, admiring the goggles it wore, and momentarily lost track of the situation.

Jimmy crawled out from under her hat, his long, spider legs seeking prey.
