When we last left our hero, he was on his way to the stables. There, he could get a horse to ride on his mission to save Lady Guinevere. When, suddenly, three Peasant stopped him.

Lancelot- AAAHHHH! …. uh, I mean *ahem* What is the meaning of this? Who are you people?

Peasant 1 – I’m John.

Peasant 2 – I’m Jacob

Peasant 3 – And I go by Fred

Jacob – Whoa man! Check it out! Get a load of his head.

Fred – Hey, your right! I’ve never seen such a big head on a knight!

Lancelot – Hey, its not that big.

Jacob – Not that big! It’s as big as a whale!

Fred – Biggest head in the world! So far as I can tell.

John -Please forgive my brother’s they don’t mean to be rude. Their just kinda hungry. They really need food.

Jacob – Yeah, when we saw you walking down the road. We thought, perhaps, you had some food we could unload.

Lancelot – Hey, you are rhyiming!

John – Yes, its a curse placed on us at birth. All we say must rhyme, so long as we live on this earth.

Lancelot – I wanna play! I wanna play! Lemme play too! I can rhyme just as good as any of you!

Jacob – Play all you want, but please give us something to eat.

Fred – Yes, we’ll eat anything but pickled pigs feet!

Lancelot – Sure, here you go. You each get an orange!

John – Thank you so much! Now we….uh…smlorange? no…..totorange….uh…Hey, fred what rymes with orange

Fred – I don’t thing anything does.

Jacob -Wait! We no longer rhyme! We are free! The curse is broken!

All three peasants – WOOT!

John – Thank you, sir! You have broken our curse.

Lancelot – Aw Man, and it was just getting fun.

Fred – Now what are we gonna do?

Jacob – Let’s write a book about our curse. We will be rich!

John – Good Idea, lets get going.

After the three peasants left, Lancelot continued on to the stable so he could get a horse.

Lancelot – Quick! Edd! I need a Horse!

Edd – So, why bother me?

Lancelot – Because you take care of all the kings horses! Duh!

Edd – But I can’t give you one of the kings horses! They belong to the king!

Lancelot – But the king sent me to get a horse!

Edd – Well, why didn’t you say so? I will be glad to give you a horse. I just need the secret password.

Lancelot – Secret Password?

Edd – Yeah, the king said I can’t give anybody a horse unless they say mayonnaise…uh, I mean unless the say the secret password.

Lancelot – Is the secret password mayonnaise?

Edd -yeah, here you go, take Rosebud. She’s the best horse we got!

Lancelot – Rosebud?! Don’t you have a manlier horse?

Edd – Well, there’s killer. Nobody has ever survived ten seconds on him.

Lancelot – Come here rosebud!

After getting his horse, Lancelot raced off! He rode through sandstorm and snowstorm. He rode through kingdom after kingdom. Then suddenly he realized he was going the wrong way! He did not let stop him though! He turned around and rode on. Knowing that with every passing moment he grew closer to Guinevere. When suddenly, there was an explosion in the road just ahead of him. Rosebud bucked Lancelot off and ran away. Picking himself up off of the ground, Lancelot saw a mysterious laughing figure behind the cloud of smoke left behind by the explosion.

What does this mysterious stranger have in store for our hero? Is he friend or foe? Will Lancelot ever save the woman of his dreams? Why am I writing a story when I should be doing something more productive? Find out in the next chapter of “Lancelot of Camelot”!
