Challenging the challenger
elliana has posted a challenge today
It’s a difficult challenge, the hardest I’d say
They left it wide open which gives it a twist
It’ll take a few moments to work out the gist
Is it mystery, murder, escapism or fact?
I’ll have to tread careful, employ some tact
I think my main character is harsh and is blunt
I need a good name, what about Mike Hunt?
No nothing is emerging, elliana a clue
If the challenge is correct I’ll leave this challenge to you!

"I used to smoke like a chimney. Never took a vitamin in my life.
I abused my kidneys. Knew I had two so I didn't think twice.
Never ate breakfast. Then I get stoned and eat too much.
I was kinda reckless~ until I fell in l o v e .
Now I call my doctor everyday, since I met you something in me's changed.
The second that you call me yours I had something worth living for.
Now I'm scared of planes and heart attacks. If I die I'll never get you back
You
make
me
a hypochondriac"
PROIE
The pack had picked up her scent. They howled and were off.
She ran as fast as she could~ running past an owl- that flew off the second that it spotted her. Even with all the many trees in the forest, there was no place for her to hide. She stopped and had an idea.
The pack carried on their chase and soon passed by the girl’s hiding spot. She quietly waited for them to move along.
Once they did, she came down from the highest branch of one of the Jacaranda trees. She jumped the minute that she heard a twig snap.
Looking for the source of the disturbance, she spotted a bunny. It raised it’s head and then hopped away.
She laughed and shook her head. Now even a bunny was going to give her a heart attack.
As she started walking, she didn’t notice the leader of the pack watching her make her way home. He was not going to let her out of his sight.

MONKEY GONE: Have you seen my pet monkey?
Early this morning, my pet monkey, Alabaster, went outside to get my mail and never returned. He was wearing a bright green vest, black Converse footwear, and a double-handled mesh backpack. Alabaster plays guitar quite well and responds to the name “Alabaster”.
He is rarely a threat, but does not like music by Fall Out Boy. I like Fall Out Boy well enough, but he much prefers the sounds of Blink-182. He once signed to me that Fall Out Boy was bad because they have weird names for their songs, then he ate an entire bag of Fritos and fell asleep for seventeen hours.
While there is no reward for the return of Alabaster, if this wide-faced monkey is brought safely back to me, I will give you a handful of coupons to IHOP and schedule you for a free 2-hour supervised visit with Alabaster on the morning of April 25th, 2023.
And if you’re reading this Alabaster, I want my damn mail.
