NOT A Good Deed

What happened? asks Terence.

I did a good deed, says Prawny.

Why? asks Terence.

Because I'm the second main prawn guy, says Prawny

What was it? asks Gaius.

Stop asking questions and I'll tell you, says Prawny.

We're listening, says Margaret. It wasn't about the reward, was it?

No more questions, says Terence.

Sorry, says Margaret, but it's rather important.

He did say he didn't want to know, says Gaius.

Shut up everyone, says Terence.

At last they shut up. 

Prawny commences the tale of his tail.

Rosalie and me went to the far side of the pond (says Prawny). And she held me up, and I looked for the torch. And I spotted it under the water. It was ON! 

I didn't turn it on, says Terence.

Prawny ignores him.

And then I spotted my tail, says Prawny. So I told Rosalie.

Excellent news, says Gaius. But why didn't she give it to us before leaving?

Because of what happened! says Prawny.

Which was what? asks Terence.

Stop asking! says Prawny.

Sorry, says Terence.

Prawny continues. Umm, where was I?

You told Rosalie, says Margaret. What did she do? No. Forget I asked that.

Right, says Prawny. She put me down and went into the water. 

We thought so! says Terrence.

Prawny frowns.

And she picked up the torch and my tail, continues Prawny. But THEN!

What? asks Terence.

I'm about to tell you, says Prawny.

Terence is quiet.

The green and golden bell frogs came out of their holes and started booing, says Prwany.

Why? asks Terene.

They said we'd cheated them out of their reward, says Prawny. And I said but it's my tail . And they said so what, they were the ones who were suposed to find it. So I said to Rosalie, drop it back in so they can find it.

And they said hurrah! Now we'll get the snack of our choice thanks to you.

That was NOT a good deed, says Terence.

Oh? Why not? asks Prawny.
