Cookie Lovers

Cookie Lovers.

Mr. Boddy had all of his guests come to the Dining Room. Miss Scarlet yawned and Colonel Mustard fidgeted. “I have a competition for each of you, it is called the cookie challenge”. I” will give you 20 cookies and whoever eats the most in 10 minutes will win. We will eat outside since it is such a lovely day.” “Is there a prize” asked the forgetful Professor.” In fact there is”, “it is a gold plated cookie sheet.” Before the match started each guest began arming themselves with weapons. Professor Plum completely forgot what they were doing and took the Candlestick and went back inside. Mr. Green fiddled with the Lead Pipe inside his briefcase. Colonel Mustard put the Wrench in his lap. Mrs. Peacock wanted to sharpen her weapon but couldn’t. Mrs. White fiddled with the Rope in her apron. Miss Scarlet put the Revolver in her purse. The match finally started. Colonel Mustard was disqualified for trying to smash Mr. Green’s plate with the Wrench. That gave Miss Scarlet a chance to trade the Revolver for the Wrench. Then Mrs. White took the Revolver and exchanged it for the Rope. Mr. Green stole 2 of Miss Scarlet’s cookies and gobbled them up. But that gave Miss Scarlet a chance to snatch all of his cookies and put the in her purse. To his dismay, Mr. Green could not steal anymore cookies. He slumped and went inside. However, Mrs. Peacock was so full from lunch  that she could not participate. She went inside to. That is when Mrs. White exchanged her weapon for Mrs. Peacock’s. Then suddenly Professor Plum came out with the Candlestick sleepwalking. He had been so lost in thought inside that he had fallen asleep. He snuck up behind Miss Scarlet and when Miss Scarlet saw the sleepwalking Professor right behind her she fainted. The remaining guest then pushed Miss Scarlet and Professor Plum to the floor. Then Mr. Boddy came out and said “What happened?”. “They have fallen asleep” said the remaining guest. “All of the other guests are inside”. “It looks like we have a winner!” said the delighted Mr. Boddy.
