Everything was normal in the village of Cupcakeville, Foodopolis. People were happily feasting on their everyday cupcakes. The innocent villagers of Cupcakeville had no idea that their diets were about to go downhill…
Bob was having an excellent day. He woke up and got dressed. After waving to his neighbor, he went to the Cupcake Cafe to eat breakfast. He settled down on a couch with his strawberry cupcake and started to watch the news.
He started to nibble on his cupcake. Suddenly, the screen of the television started to blur, and it seemed to lose connection. A few moments later, a person appeared on the screen.
“Hahaha! I am Colonel Cakecup. I created a machine called the ReverseRay2000. I have selected this pathetic little village to be my victim. I will turn all the cupcakes in this place into cups in the shape of cakes.” And with that, the TV turned off.
The sky started to turn black. The whole village rumbled. Bob hid under the table for safety. After the shaking stopped, he climbed out and saw a half-eaten Styrofoam cup on the table. Rushing into the bathroom, he whipped on his Captain Cupcake costume (Yes reader, Bob is alternately known as Captain Cupcake, savior of dessert) and flew out the window only to find that the curse had worked. The villagers’ nightmare has finally come true.
Every cupcake shop in the village was selling cakecups. The villagers all knew that cups weren’t edible. They refused to believe that their main food source was gone. Soon, some of the villagers snapped, causing them to go into a frenzy.
Captain Cupcake called on his sidekick Cake Boy (Also known as Billy Bob Joe) to try and brainstorm solutions. They decided that they needed to find out where the evil colonel dwells. Flying around, our captain searched day after day but to no avail. After interviewing some people who claimed to have seen the malicious colonel, our heroes became confused.
Some claimed the colonel everywhere, others said he could be found nowhere. Some believe that he’s formidable, others think he’s very vulnerable. Some claim that he’s gigantic and monstrous, but others state that he’s invisible and trivial. Others insist that he can take down entire nations without breaking a sweat, and some state that he’s fragile and can be destroyed easily. The strange thing is, Captain Cupcake had a feeling that they were all telling the truth. How is this possible? To figure this out, our hero dived into deep study.
Months of research and analysis guides the hero to finally figure out that this “Colonel Cakecup” was a virus. Our dynamic duel started to make a vaccine to cure this infection.
At last, this horrible crisis is no more! The captain and his sidekick sprayed the newly made vaccine over the town, and the curse was finally lifted. Joy is again bestowed to the village. The townspeople learned about this and praised Captain Cupcake for his ingenuity and bravery. After this exploit, the captain learned something crucial to his success: don’t judge an evil book by its cover.
