Something's Scon Wrong! by Ruby Allen
Read by Joseph Ayre from the 大象传媒 Radio Drama Company.
"Its scon!" cried the queen
"no its scone!" cried a very terrified sergeant
nobody knew what it was, scone...scon? (its definitely scone) If you're a scone hater then you are definitely not British! It even says so in the ABCDEFG thankyou scones for feeding me law book. This challenging word has been going on for centuries. I'm sure there's going to be a war over it one day...
"order order! Roared the judge "the queen has decided a law over the word scon! If anyone is to be heard saying the word: S.C.O.N.E will be sentenced to at least twelve years of utter misery and will be locked up in the deepest darkest dungeon where they only serve cold tea! Any questions please speak now!"
"Do they serve coffee?" asked Jeffery Bourbon
"oh yes! But they don't have sugar!"
A huge gasp abounded the audience! this was shocking! Even the Primeminester was a little bit annoyed. Then when no one was expecting someone from Bean party shouted "SCONE!" suddenly ten police men wrestled him to the ground and was soon dragged out to his twelve years of utter misery!
The next morning I woke up to find protesters outside my house, all holding huge banners saying: vote for S.C.O.N.E and chanters roaring out gibberish! As I turned away I heard a splat on my window! It was red and sticky! Was it jam? When I looked out again I saw Mr and Mrs Bloomsbottom holding a huge cannon. But instead of filling it with cannon balls they were filling it with cream and strawberry jam! "What are you doing?" I asked.
"filling me cannons dear the bombs are to heavy' they'll do me back in!" she replied "come and help me if youd like? Some huge sort of BEEF is on in London, apparently its World War 3!"
"that's sounds fun!" I shouted back "but WW3 quoor blimey!"
I rushed downstairs and collected all the jam I could find. And then rushed outside to help my fellow citozens. "okay then mam lets go win this for us scon-rejecters!!!!!!!
An hour later we arrived in London! Sure enough there were millions of people! You could see people loading there slingshots and canons and people getting ready to fight! When we had finished loading up are things we heared a loud bang! Then people from the scon side came rushing in! canons and bombs were shot and fired! Then I felt a pain hit my leg! As I looked down I saw red blood squirting out! "ive been shot I cried!" but then I tasted it. Oh its only jam... more cream came rushing our way and more cream came rushing there way! But then there was a holt!
"hang on why don't we just call it a sweet sandwich?" someone said
"oh yeah! Good idea! Cream then jam brilliant!"
"no, jam then cream" debated someone else.
OH NO! it had started again!
