The Adventures of Click Click Cluck

Click Click Cluck roamed around the vast savanna. He wasn’t looking for anything, he was just exploring. As Click Click trotted along he spotted something far away. As he jogged toward it he noticed that it was bright like the Sun, but went up towards the sky from the ground. He got closer to it shielding his eyes from the sheer brightness.

Suddenly the ground beneath him gave way. Click Click plummeted into the hole shrieking. When he opened his eyes the vast grassland had disappeared, replaced with sky-scraping buildings built out of some sort of rock material. Picking himself up he began to notice how many people were around him. Not many of them looked like him either, some had white skin, others had purple hair. Instead of just wearing a simple loincloth like him they wore whole body-covering garments, ‘shinnies’ hanging from their ears and noses. Click Click noticed someone his color.

“Click click cluck, clock clook?” he asked.

“Man what you talkin’ bout’?!?”

Where was Click Click?!?
