The Story of Snail: Chapter Three

BRAEBURN:
"Look where your shouting and yelling and screaming got us" Horn whispered angrily to Snail. "Skip the long talk and give it to Spike" said Snail. "He was the one who screamed in the first place." "Because he screamed I could scream all I want and the humans would still hear Spike." "Yeah, I guess your right." said Horn. "But you told us you knew a house when you saw one." suddenly the voices outside stopped. "Were the snails inside that box talking?" the boy said. "Maybe they need food." "What'll they eat?" asked the girl. "Hey!" shouted Spike. Snails heart stopped beating. What in the world was Spike doing? Spike continued. "We want rose petals to eat!" "What are you doing?!" Horn wispered to Spike. "Telling them what we want to eat so we don't starve, of course" said Spike, not bothering to keep his voice down. "HEY!" shouted the boy. "THEY DO TALK!" And before anyone could do anything, he opened the door, got rose petals, came back in and opened the lid. "HI!" he said.
