Zork, part 2

Remember Zork?

Well, my older son apparently was very motivated to write (more than I have been lately), and decided to write a sequel. Here goes...

The galaxies once created a planet named Zorkanog far far away from anyone’s solar system. Zork finally got a job that his parents Zork and Zork liked. Zork worked at the mission control center preparing the spaceships for Zorkanog orbitings. He knew all the instructions so whenever someone shouted, “Pour the oil!” He would do it.

One day when Zork was working on the ship, the instructor shouted, “Squeeze the lemonade!”

It was almost as if Zork had a question mark on top of his head. “Squeeze the lemonade?” Suddenly, Zork’s eye spotted something. It was a lever that had the word LEMONADE on it. Zork had the urge to pull it and when he did, the rocket started rumbling. The label was upside down! The rocket ship was really called the EDANOMEL.

“I said to squeeze the lemonade! Not the lever!” The instructor shouted

“Uh oh!” Zork mumbled.

The rocket ship started to rumble.

“Whoah!” Zork shouted.

Zoom! The rocket ship flew into the galaxy of Altania. Boom! Zork landed on the ground of the EDANOMEL. The platform opened and Zork walked out onto a dusty planet. There was a sign that said:

Welcome to Languia

Zork thought to himself, Languia? I’ve never heard of Languia before. Zork walked along a dirt path until he came to a noisy carnival.

An alien went up to Zork and asked, “Lang lang lang lang-lang lang?”

Zork responded, “Zorky zork zorkety zork zork.”

The creature that spoke Languish had a confused look on his face. The problem was Zork spoke Zorkon while the creature from Languia spoke Languish. Zork saw a roller coaster. When he went on, he could feel the roller coaster taking up speed. Flip! Zork forgot to buckle up. He landed in the EDANOMEL.

“BLAST OFF! a pixelated voice spoke.

Zoom!

When Zork was back in the comfort of his house he thought to himself, Maybe I should think of something better to do than squeezing lemonade.

Zork knew he could now do better.
