The True Story: The Three Troublesome Pigs

6A Fung Hei Yiu

On a day in 2022, a wolf woke up from bed and decided to find his three companions. His name was Mr.
Extrovert, a tall and powerful wolf who was intelligent and kind-hearted. He had to find the three pigs as soon
as possible in order to control the spread of a newly discovered virus which was killing thousands of animals in
the Modern Forest.
Mr. Extrovert was full of beans. He walked to the first pig’s house and knocked on the door. “Is it you
again, Mr. Extrovert? What do you want?” said Potato Couch, the pig in the straw house, lazily. “I need your
help, Potato. Please, I’ll explain to you once you come out,” said Mr. Extrovert pleasingly. The feckless pig
gave a wry smile and continued eating his chips. Mr. Extrovert called him again and again, but no response
was received over the door. He came up with a brilliant idea and damaged the straw house. He negotiated
with the pig that if he agreed to assist him, then he would give the pig a house made entirely with sweets and
biscuits. Hearing the benefits, the pig was tempted and accepted the offer instantaneously.
Afterwards, Mr. Extrovert went to find the second pig, Evil Couch. Things did not go as smooth as he
expected. When he reached Evil’s house, he felt a splash of water on his face and heard the pig in the wooden
house cracking with laughter. The pig consequently agreed to help him only when Mr. Extrovert told him that
there would be an Artificial Intelligence House rewarded to him if he compromised.

Mr. Extrovert later went to the brick house and called the third pig, Careless Couch. “What do you want
from me, you fool?” exclaimed Careless. All of a sudden, a loud bang was heard and the house shuddered.
Careless had fallen down onto the ground. Mr. Extrovert demolished his house and told him that he would be
given a safety house if he agreed to help. Finally, Mr. Extrovert explained his plan to them, “As a new virus is
spreading across the forest, I want you there to help me find Unicorn Belle on the mountain and ask her for the
magic power.” “Then why don’t you find her yourself?” asked Careless, casting a dirty look. “Potato, you have
a good sense of smell. And Evil, you’ve got extraordinary eyesight. And for you, Careless, you have excellent
hearing. So that’s why I need you guys,” replied Mr. Extrovert. The pigs were persuaded and followed the wolf
into the forest.
They went up to the mountain and came across some dangerous creatures and plants, such as roses with
thorns and Coral Snakes. They reached the top of the mountain and succeeded in finding Unicorn Belle. She
lent them her magic power with her horn. At the end, the virus was gone, and the animals all lived in peace and
stability. Besides, Potato Couch was rewarded a confectionary house in which he could eat everything. Evil
Couch was rewarded an Artificial Intelligence House with numerous solar panels, automatic doors as well as
myriads of advanced equipment. Careless Couch was given a safety house made of metallic bricks. The non-
slippery floor inside the house was specifically designed for clumsy pigs like Careless Couch.
From that day on, the three pigs all lived together in their special houses happily ever after.
