Chapter 1
the admirable germ
Alcompous Worm Soil is a small, green mongerstopeger[i]
that cared for the environment. He had an extremely kind personality, a curious
way of thinking and an energetic way of moving. All the mongerstopegers of
Germland[ii]
admired him because his job helped them live healthily.
Chapter 2 Alcompous’s job
Alcompous’s job was to stop careless mongerstopegers from
dropping filthy rubbish on the floor. He talked very seriously so the mongerstopegers
would listen to him. However, his boss, Criplishpee, was jealous of how much
attention Alcompous was getting. “I can’t figure out why all the mongerstopegers
like Alcompous so much but don’t give me the same attention even though I do
the same job!” he muttered to himself. So,
one day Criplishpee thought of a trick that would make Alcompous look stupid.
Chapter 3 Alcompous’s confusion
One dark, gloomy day, Alcompous was cleaning up as usual but
Criplishpee was creeping behind him and tipping over the rubbish cans! Criplishpee
sneaked back to his office and waited for Alcompous to come. When Alcompous
came back from cleaning, Criplishpee told him off and shouted, “Why did you
leave the street untidy, stupid mongerstopeger!”
Alcompous was confused and ashamed. He went to his house to
think of a clever way to make Criplishpee proud. He didn’t want to be called
stupid because everyone he met admired him. He looked in his room for an idea
of what he could do but he couldn’t find anything, so he went to sleep.
Chapter 4 Alcompous’s big idea
The next day was bright and sunny and Alcompous kept looking
for something he could do to show Criplishpee that he was wrong. He looked for
an hour and then found something that produced an idea in his head. He could
build a diamond to help clean up the mess! The best part of building a diamond
in Germland for your boss is that building a diamond is hard to do and bosses
of mongerstopegers like diamonds because diamonds are sparkly and shiny. So, if
a mongerstopeger builds a diamond for their boss, they get rewarded with a
lifetime supply of food.
Alcompous started building the diamond as fast as he could.
When he finished, he ran to work swiftly, feeling proud of himself. He was so
quick that he was 3 hours early! Alcompous thought Criplishpee would be amazed
that he built a diamond to clean up Germland. “Look boss I built something
sparkly and shiny to clean the mess!” Alcompous said proudly. But when he
showed Criplishpee the diamond, Criplishpee shouted, “What are you talking
about Alcompous this is just a shiny, sparkly rock. A diamond does not clean!”
When Alcompous heard this, he felt like a failure and went back home and went
to sleep.
Chapter 5 Alcompous’s incredible invention
At 2am, Alcompous jumped out of bed feeling excited. He had
had a dream that showed him inventing things like the ripeou32, which is a mongerstopeger
version of a water bottle. He also dreamed about the friptonko, which is a mongerstopeger
version of a house. He felt better because he remembered how good he was at
inventing. He collected a hammer, a saw, a fire lighter, some metal, a wipe and
a water sprayer. He made lots of noise in his room and when he finished, he
wiped his invention clean and thought of a name.
He ran to his children (Al, Come and Pous). Pous, who always
woke up earlier than the others, heard the noise and checked behind the door to
see if Alcompous was there. When he saw his dad he asked, “Daddy, why was there
so much noise and what are you doing?” Alcompous explained, “I was going to
wake up you, Al and Come so I could show you an incredible invention called the
stiplikonko[iii].”
Alcompous gently shook Come and Al while Pous sat and played with his cars. Al
slowly got out of bed and yawned. Come got out of bed and stretched. “Come and
see my new invention!” Alcompous said excitedly. Come was excited because she
loved seeing her dad’s inventions. The four of them ran to Alcompous’s room and
the children were so surprised that they ran around the room exclaiming, “What
an incredible invention!”
Chapter 6 Alcompous makes a team
Soon enough Alcompous had to go to work. He was excited
because today he would show Criplishpee the stiplikonko. Alcompous arrived
earlier than usual and started using his new invention. He really enjoyed using
it because it sucked anything in its way (No matter if its big or small.) Criplishpee
watched in anger as Alcompous worked and muttered, “This is ruining my plan!”
When Alcompous came in from work he found a ginger beer can that
he had cleaned the day before and then he got extremely suspicious. Criplishpee
was feeling uncomfortable because he knew Alcompous might find out that he made
the mess. So he confessed, “It was me who made the streets messy!” “What!”
cried Alcompous “No wonder I was so confused. It was you who made the mess in
the streets and then you blamed it on me! I quit!”
Criplishpee cried “Please don’t quit, you’re our best
cleaner! I’m very sorry for what I’ve done. I shouldn’t have pretended that you
made the mess just because I was jealous.
“You were jealous?!” Alcompous exclaimed, “There’s no
need to be jealous because you helped me be a good cleaner!” Criplishpee calmed
down because he realised that he actually did get attention because he led
by example.
Chapter 7 Alcompous’s rewards
Criplishpee was so amazed and proud of Alcompous because he
made a machine that would change everybody’s cleaning lives and Alcompous
helped Criplishpee feel like a winner. Criplishpee gave Alcompous rewards that
were so amazing that all the mongerstopegers came to look! First, Alcompous got
a lifetime supply of food for building the biggest diamond. Second, he got a
note saying that he could work whenever he wanted so he could spend time at
home inventing objects and spending time with his family. Finally, he got a stiplikonchiworks,
which is a machine that shoots out stiplikonkos as fireworks.
Alcompous felt important and was so happy that he skipped
and danced all the way home. Alcompous called his family so he could show them
the rewards he got. Al, Come and Pous were extremely impressed. After he showed
his wife, Lileypompous, they all had a nice meal together. Alcompous ate quite
a lot after the day he had had!
The moral of this story is that you don’t have to be jealous
because working together makes everyone a winner!
