     While most mythical stories start at the 

beginning with the "Once upon a time" theme, 

and all that jazz, this one is different. It begins 

somewhere in the middle, that is, somewhere in

the middle of all the events that shaped our unique

island. 

     This is the tale of the one event that changed 

our small island forever, the incident of the stolen 

epic slice of pizza. That's right, I said . . . PIZZA.

    Or, should I say a catastrophe that changed 

our great island forever. 

      Before I begin, allow me to introduce 

 myself. I'm Dr. Theodore Weenie, the ruler of

 Miscellaneous Island, which we'll call Misc. 

 Island for short. Our island got its name from

 all the miscellaneous people and things that

 live here. 

    For example, we have mermaids and merman, 

horsemen, phoenix, and all those unusual things. 

We have lions, tigers, and bears, Oh My! And . . . 

then there's all different kinds of people who live 

here from the very young to the very old, and all 

the unusual folks in between. 

      But, I suppose the most intriguing thing  

 about our little island is wishes do come. You 

 may wish for for any one thing up to seven times  

 and it will be granted.

     I know what you are probably thinking, "Wow, 

I 

can wish for anything I want and it will happen?" 

But you see, it was these wishes that put us in the 

middle of a humongous disturbance that almost 

tore 

Misc. Island apart. 

     So you might say my story begins with a last 

wish for an epic slice of pizza. So, this is how it

all happened . . . 

     Horseman, a centaur on the island loved pizza. He had 

wished for pizza six times and it had been granted to him. 

Then, on his seventh wish for pizza, he wished for an epic 

pizza of great proportions because he knew that it was the 

last time he could wish for pizza. Since he loved pizza so 

much, he decided to ration it out so that it would last longer. 

He dug a hole underneath a large rock and placed his pizza 

in a special box in the hole. Then he wished that his pizza 

would stay fresh until he ate the last piece of it. And so it 

was, or so it almost was.

     Each day at noon, he went to his special hiding place,

took one piece of pizza out of the box, and laid it on the rock 

like it was on a table. Alone in the noon-day sun, he savored 

every bite, and all was well on Misc. Island until . . .

     He arrived one day at his special place and saw his best 

friend, Merman, sitting upon the rock eating his last piece 

of epic pizza. This made Horseman furious. 

     "What do you think you are doing!!" He shouted. "How 

did you find that?" He inquired as Merman looked up at 

him with a sly grin spread across his face.

     "I followed you yesterday to see where you were going 

every day at noon." He replied. 

     "That's my last piece of pizza!" Horseman shouted!

     "But, I'm your best friend. Should you not have shared it 

with me?" Merman calmly replied. Merman's relaxed 

demeanor fueled Horseman's rage, so he called in his 

mighty cat warriors from the east and declared war on 

Merman.
