969 - SCRAM

ARchie, the python, enjoyed various prey when he was hungry. But today he wasn't hungry, but instead fancied a bit of fun. He'd decided to play a prank on a group of furry creatures that had been on his menu a couple of times before. So he dressed up as a moray eel fish. He slithered up close to the guard hyrax and then froze. When the guard spotted Archie, he was nervous at first. But never having seen a moray before (why would he? - they lived in water) he relaxed and went back to his duties looking out for danger. This was Archie's moment! He burst out of his disguise and hissed "Scram" to all the hyraxes and they rushed back to their burrow at great speed. Archie laughed and laughed and then went off to doze in the sun.
