Once upon a time there was a burger called Cheesy. He was afraid to be eaten so he escaped from a restaurant called WacDonald’s. He jumped into the bin to hide so he could sneak out when the binman came to collect the rubbish.
Cheesy was trying to get out of the bin and at that moment he saw a spicy nugget that was abandoned and about to be attacked by a very large seagull.

“MACAWK ... I’m Sally, the meanest seagull in town. You all fear me, or I’ll eat you.”
Cheesy wished he was a human being so that he could save the nugget. The nugget was screaming in a high-pitched voice “HHHHHELP MEEEE!”

So Cheesy jumped out of the bin and waddled and rolled over to help. He searched everywhere and he found a genie lamp on the ground. He was not able to rub it so he used his cheese, but it started to melt because it was 30 degrees outside.
Suddenly there was thunder and a storm came and Cheesy was struck by lightning.
