When everything was settled down Blink said, “Now brothers and sisters I have to tell you that, for the third time this week the fruit fly is eating fruit.” “No!” shouted some of the brothers. “This means,” continued Blink, “That we will create an army.” Now all this time the fruit fly had been listening. Once he heard those words, he called more fruit flies and made his own army. “Attack!” yelled the lead fruit fly. When Blink saw the fruit flies coming he said, “You know how to toast toast. Now let’s go toast some fruit flies!” Then the toasters attacked sending jets o...
