However the Wizard Wifel had need of Alexander the Human far more then he had of Alexander the Rooster
so he left the cage with two roosters in the kitchen and then sat Damon down on the sofa in the living room
and explained his problem.Although he dabbled in wizardry now and then his main
line of work was as a farmer
they called him Old Man Wiffel
and a common problem he and other farmers
had was to get enough rain on the crops
in this dry parched worthless dessert everyone
lived in.
If Old Man Wiffel
could get a decent rainfall
on the tens of thousands of acres he owned
he and anyone
who partnered with him
stood to make a fortune when the value of the shot up.
Which was where Alexander came in,
Alexander owned several hundred acres in earlier ventures
with the Wizard
that had worked.
So no
Old Man Wiffel didn't want roosters.
He pulled out and showed Damon a 4 x 6 photograph of a island whose central mountain
looked like a giant apes
skull.
"Skull Island" said Wiffel
On that island is a temple guarded by a cult of anthro dragonesses
who claim their
ancestors
were from the future
and had come with a time machine that
broke down.
According to the cult high priestess
the original eight
ancestors were a anthro dragoness rocker chic
band who knew how to play
music but not how to fix time machines.
Old Man Wiffel then told Damon that in the center
of this Temple to Damona Too
stood a huge jewel that could control weather and make it rain.
Whether the huge gem was magical or just technology from the future
the Wizard
didn't know
but he had been trying to convince Alexander
to join him on a expedition to Skull Island to stral the gem.
Alexander had refused,even to the point of being turned
into a rooster.
It appeared the sly crooked but good at stealing
guarded valuable gems
Alexander had fallen in love with
the latest anthro dragoness
High Priestess
Damona the Tenth
"So my boy" said Wiffel
"I'm going to turn Alexander and Brendan back into humans and give you three days to convince
your step brother
Alexander to join me on my expedition to Skull Island
to steal the Weather Gem.If in three days Alexander still says "NO"
I'll leave him human but turn you into a hen!"
The Wizard waved his hands and a glowering Alexander and Brendan popped up in the Living Room
human once more
"Ta dah" said Wiffel as he left,winking at a nervous Damon
