Mission Color-it-All

mouse-on-the-prowl

“Agent M, have you landed?”

“Yes, Control. I’m hiding on their dinner table.”

“How does one hide at a dinner table, Agent M? We’ve surely taught you better hiding skills.”

“I’m pretending to be a normal mouse, Control.”

“Oh, OK. Look around carefully. You will find colorless surroundings. Your aim is to spread color. By the end of mission there shouldn’t be a single speck of black or white around. How will you proceed?”

“I will. Oh no! A little guy is trying to pick me up. What should I do, Control? Control! Help! AAAAAAARRRGGHHHHH……”

WHAM!

  1. Dear Ankita,

    I have a lot of computer mice in my house. I’ll never look at them the same way.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    A very imaginative idea! I work on a laptop, so I have no fear of spying mice.

    That’s too funny. Poor Agent M though. He can come over to my office and spread some colour if he likes.

  12. And so the world remains grey and brown another day. The C.I.A. (color intelligence agency ) lost a great agent today. 😦

    If that’s how the little guy treats what he thinks is a regular computer mouse, I wonder how often his parent(s) have to replace them! Or maybe the child is actually unusually perceptive to the presence of aliens, and this was a deliberate household defense strategy. 😉

      That’s an interesting thought! I am wondering how he would explain it to his family later. How he saved them. 🙂
