No Name and the Curse

Culture Night at Fighting Words, 21st September 2012, Illustrations by Alan Worrall
Once there was a dog called “No Name”.

He always wanted an owner but was afraid because an evil witch put a curse on him.

His best friend was Robert the Stripey Bear. Robert was a lazy bear so he wasn’t the best ‘best friend’ in the world.

No Name asked Robert, “Could you help get rid of this curse because I really want an owner.”  Robert said, “If you want to get the curse lifted, you’ll have to see Random Steve.”  

“Oh I hate that guy and his stupid spider and monkey. Where does he live?”

“Up Witch Mountain, where the witch lives and down a cliff.”
