Best First Day Ever – Complete story

“Everybody stood frozen in shock. Some gasped, others squealed; a teacher fainted.

William flipped up the secret panel on the arm of his wheelchair and yelled. 'Out of my way, I’m coming through!'"

"We interrupt this program with breaking news! An elephant has escaped from the travelling circus. Police advise people to be careful."

(ringing of a school bell)

It was William's first day at his new school. He wanted to make a good impression but he didn't know how.

(trumpeting sound of an elephant)

"Woah, that's dangerous, it could hurt someone. He could hurt himself too!"

"Out of my way, I'm coming through!"

"Water canons, engage."

(cheering from classmates)

"Now to catch an elephant."

"Help! The elephant is going to destroy the whole playground!"

"Peanut bazooka, engage peanuts!"

ALLERGY WARNING: THE FOLLOWING SCENE CONTAINS TRACES OF NUTS.

(blast of a bazooka)

And that's how William became the most popular boy at school on his very first day.

(classmates chant: "William! William! William!)
