=__The Adventures of Superopossum__= = = = = =It was a cold rainy night when the bear was born; the only threat to superopossum; Jack. He was a large opossum; his fur was black as night, his teeth were sharp as nails, and his face ugly as satin's. The black bear weighed over 300 pounds. He was strong enough to pull a train and was as fast as he was strong.= = = =Jack roamed throughout the night eating anything in his path. The opossum was 5 years old, nearly a veteran hunter. He saw his prey, pitiful petunia, he creeped quietly towards the sleeping flower, he savored the scent of the meal waiting to come. The 140 pound opossum vigorously ripped apart the midnight snack, clorophyll dribbled down his chin like water winding down a rock. He was always ready to battle. Any size animal. Suddenly the black bear appeared from behind a tree. Circled Jack, and hissed wildly. The opossum jumped and scratched the creature across the face blinding him in one eye. Then Jack ran home.=

=So then next day Jack trained to fight Big Bear. He spent 3 weeks training for the deciding battle. At the end of 3 weeks Jack was fiercer than 10 dragons. He set off to meet Big Bear for their epic battle when all of a sudden he sees Tiny Tick attacking him from behind. Jack whipped his tail at Tiny Tick and struck him in the face. Tiny Tick got up, jumped on Jack, and started sucking his blood. Jack started to feel weaker and weaker until he fainted of exhaustion. When he woke up and didn't know where he was. All of a sudden he heard Big Bear talking - and Tiny Tick too. Tiny Tick said "Come on Big Bear, let me suck his blood." Big Bear responded, "No, he is waking up now and I want to finish the job." Then Jack said: "Big words for such a big weakling." This made Big Bear angry and he slashed his claw at Jack, who quickly dodged the incoming blow. Just then Jack saw poison mushrooms which he quickly grabbed and threw at Big Bear. Big Bear took one whiff of the mushrooms and died from their poisonous fumes. Jack, the super opossum had defeated the mighty Big Bear.=
