Once upon a Wednesday, a poor
woodcutter named John Key lived in a small
cottage in the Redwoods with his two
children, Max and Stephie Key. Their
stepmother, Birtha, was always horrible to
the two kids and the woodcutter.
One night while the children were
meant to be asleep, Birtha sat John
down to talk. "We need to get rid
of those stupid kids," Birtha
exclaimed. "We simply just don't
have enough food to feed our huge
family."
After managing to get John to
listen, she came up with a plan for
John to take the kids far into the
redwoods. Leave them and let them
freeze to death.
Max and Stephie were woken up at
dawn. As soon as they were dressed,
their horrible step-mother shoved them
out the door with only a pie each.
What Birtha didn't know was that
throughout the time the kids and
their dad were walking, Max was
dropping small parts of his pie
along the trail so they could find
their way home.
As night fell, Max and Stephie
began following the first few pieces
of pie, until it came to an
unsettling stop. "We're lost!" yelled
Stephie. "No, we're not. We'll find
our way home. I promise," Max
replied calmly.
Max and Stephie had been walking
through the redwoods for hours,
when suddenly they came upon a
very large cottage which happened
to be made out of cake and candy.
As they began stuffing their faces
with candy, the ground began to
shake. They heard the door squeak
as it opened.
Out walked a huge man. He said
his name was Kim.com. "Come on
in!" he said nicely. The kids quickly
followed the huge man inside.
As soon as they sat down Kim.com
began to fatten up the kids with
possum pies and pineapple lumps.
The kids had no idea why he was
feeding them so much.
After an hour of non-stop eating,
Max and Stephie reached the
point where they could barely
speak. Kim.com moved them to an
empty room where they were all
alone. He quickly shut the door as
he yelled, "I'll be back to eat you
soon!"
What Kim.com didn't realise was
that his walls were made out of
vanilla cake. It only took 2 minutes
for them to chew through the wall
and break free. When Kim.com
came back from the kitchen, he
was shocked to see no kids, but
didn't have the energy to chase
after them.
As Max and Stephie reached their
house, their father was waiting for
them with all their bags packed.
"What happened?" Stephie
whispered. "Birtha had a terrible
accident and passed away, so
we are moving to Fairyvale."
"Yay!" both the kids yelled.
So John and the kids packed up
the car, moved to Fairyvale, and
lived happily ever after.
