He is allowed to carry the fish food.
Roy shakes in the food while Lucas looks on.
Lucas shouts at the fish to come and get their dinner!! Which the fish do but I don't think Lucas shouting made them arrive!!
Later everyone is busy around the house when Lucas finds a very interesting tank......
" Wow! " sighs Lucas looking at the bearded Dragon in his Vivarium " A Dragon! " he stands watching the dragon for a while until...
he is joined by Mossy " What are you looking at ? " asks Mossy unable to see past the rocks at the front of the glass.
Lucas smiles........
He takes Mossy to the other end of the glass but there are some plants in the way so Mossy still cannot see
" Are you sure you cannot see? " questions Lucas smiling
" Nope !" replies Mossy getting on the tips of his paws " Not a thing !"
" Nope!" says Mossy " What is it? "
" I think it's a bears play ground " Lucas says softly
"Really!" gasps Mossy " Let me look 1"
Lucas gives Mossy a boost into the Vivarium , Mossy is so busy looking at the rocks and plants around him he does not see a very interested spectator watching from under a nearby large rock.
Suddenly Lucas slides the door shut and starts walking away !
Mossy taps on the glass " Lucas Lucas !" he calls " You have to open the door for me! Lucas !"
but Lucas just walks away humming a little tune happily.
The bearded Dragon watches the little grey furry thing tapping on the glass and shouting, he looks a little big for lunch but maybe it's something new?
Mossy decides to see if there is another way out and wanders round the rocks until he comes to one that appears to have an EYE!! He freezes , his little heart pounding so loud he is sure the creature will hear it and gobble him up.
The Bearded Dragon decides to play it cool and pretend he's not seen the furry thing and looks off into the distance.
Seeing a chance to save himself he rushes up onto the rock above the creature and lays down!
The Dragon looks back to find the furry one's disappeared! So he wanders off in search of it!
Mossy uses this as he opportunity to get back to where he came in.
Just as he stands frozen against the glass Hattie comes into view. She sees Mossy immediately " Mossy Green what are you doing in there!" she asks heading towards him
Hattie slides open the door speaking to the terrified Mossy in a calm and gentle voice while Mossy babbles away in gibberish!
Reaching in Hattie quickly lifts Mossy out and onto her shoulder just as the Dragon sees them.
The Dragon is somewhat put out that that little person appears to be taking his lunch ! But he was not too sure about that furry skin and he would definitely been more than one mouthful!!
Mossy clings to Hattie with the grip of a bear that's seen his end coming...Hattie coos to him gently while she shuts the door firmly on the Dragon.
Gently she asks " How did you get stuck in there Mossy ? "
Mossy who is slowing giving in to the relief of his rescue just manages one word before he closes his eyes to sleep.

Oh Dee, I think you have a lot of work to with Lucas, just when you think he might be reforming, another burst of naughtiness happens instead. i hope Mossy recovers from his fright soon, Clemence suggests a honey sandwich might help.
ReplyDeleteI fear it will be a long slow process ! after all it was with the Ice Queen for a good while!!
DeleteMossy I am sure will be insisting on many Honey Sandwiches!!
Oh dear! Just when I thought that the 'Taming of the Shrew' (ooops....sorry... I meant Lucas!) had finally 'come to pass' then it all falls into disaray again.
ReplyDelete(I'm hoping that this post wasn't the result of the response from the Ice Queen's comment yesterday?)
Had it been me in there instead of poor Mr Mossy I might well have suffered a fatal heart attack.....and where would my Sasha Dolls 'be then poor things?'
Thank goodness for dear eccentric Hattie to the rescue. I'm sure that a warm sugary drink and, as Clemence suggests, a tasty honey filled sandwich, followed by a little afternoon nap will do the trick (.....whereas I might have needed a large 'tot' of Whisky and a small tin of Condensed Milk before a long nap to sweeten my fright!)
My late father used to keep a large tank of tropical fish (my favourites were the tiny little turquoise lit Neons)..... as did my dentist in his waiting room (but I'd rather not have to remember that!)
It's very early days yet for Lucas's rehabilitation ! ( This post was planned before the garden swing post!, )
DeleteI can assure you Kendal if that Dragon had escaped that Vivarium, i'd be on the heart ward now!! I can assure you that I personally stayed well back from the glass in order to be first out the room should anything escape!!!!
Oh my goodness that Lucas is a naughty little boy, isn't he? Fancy doing such a frightful thing to poor little Mr Mossy! I'm so glad that Hattie came to the rescue and gave him such a lovely cuddle, she really is such a sweet girl...no wonder my Ellory wants to look like her so much! I agree with everyone else though, a nice honey sandwich should hit the spot!!
ReplyDeleteI just don't know what you're going to do with the naughty little Lucas though....he really does seem to have a very 'unfortunate' streak, doesn't he!
He can be a terror if left to his own devices!! I'm sure Mossy will be telling all about his dice with the dragon!!
DeleteHattie is a very good and valiant child !
I'm sure Hattie will be having a word with young master Lucas!!
Oh my God! This is a great story and Lukas is a rascal. Thanks the translator I enjoyed the story. We used to have an aquarium too. We had neon tetras and the mollies and of course angelfishes. But here in this region we have hard water and it's very difficult to produce a good water quality.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barbara, glad you enjoyed it :)
DeleteThat Lucas is a big rascal!
That's a shame the water is too hard where you now live for an aquarium.
Wow, so happy Mr. Mossy is okay and what a rascal Lucas is---shame on him! I just love Hattie though and she saved the day :). Great photos Dee and really enjoyed your aquariums :) xxxx
ReplyDeleteYes lucky Hattie came along when she did! Lucas is indeed a rascal and will need more attention!
DeleteThe aquariums are my daughter's, so I have the joy to see them and the joy not to have to clean them!! :) xxx
Good Boy Lucas! I am SO proud of you :)
ReplyDeleteHe may slip
DeleteHe may slide
but in the end
he will abide
in this village
good and true
with no help
from frosty you!!
:))
Ah! So it IS Lucas. Noway would Connor be so cruel as to try to frighten that poor dragon by putting a Bossy, oops, I mean Mossy Bear in with him. I'm glad both dragon and bear survived without injury.
ReplyDeleteHee hee, it seems the CLAN have Lucas' little tricks to deal with from time to time. I'm sure Miss Hattie will deal with him when he gets out of hand. She is definitely an organized small person.
Yes I'm afraid Connor is STILL missing? Bossy .. mm I mean Mossy survived his visit with the dragon!
DeleteMiss Hattie of the village CLAN will be more than capable of sorting out one frost bitten toddler !!
Lora said to tell you -she knew Mossy would be much safer here!
ReplyDeletePlease tell Lora...Nice try!! :)
DeleteMossy loves his little Miss Ginny and his great friend and mentor Edward Panda to ever leave them, although he does love having fans!! :)
