My part of the story are in blue and Jennis in black

One afternoon Lilliputt was out in the Carrot Fields collecting carrots as she usually does when she noticed someone approaching. It was a young lady that seemed familiar somehow. As Lilliputt continued with her chores the lady spoke:
"Awrite. How ur yeh?"
Lilliputt scratched her head as she tried to think about the ladies odd remark.
"What?", she said confused
"Aye. How ur yeh?"
It still made no sense to the little islander so she pointed at herself
"I.... AM.... LILLIPUTT", she said, "Who....are...you?" she finished pointing at the lady."
"I'm Jenni ", said the young lady, her accent seemed strange to Lilliputt, "And I'm Electrogirl", said another girl.
Lilliputt scratched her head for the second time, these two girls...they seemed so familiar to Lilliputt.
"Where are you from?" , questioned Lilliputt.
"I'm for Scotland", said Jenni, "And I'm from Guernsey", said Electrogirl ,"We are twins", they said at the same time.
"Ah, of course you are", Lilliputt said as if she knew what Scotland or Guernsey is. "You just look so familiar. Maybe we are related. I can never keep track of all the relatives. I'm such an old Lilliputt". Lilliputt shook her head and looked at the pile of carrots. Still it was Jenni that caught her attention. She was really the one that looked familiar though not her twin. It seemed to have something to do with poems, but she just couldn't put her finger on it.
As Jenny followed Lilliputs gaze and spotted the carrots Lilliputt suddenly realised what it was. She glanced at Jenni and there it was. Her PROFILE, it was almost like a SIGn. She was the spitting image of Robert Burns!
Lilliputt knew what it was now, the SIGn! It was A RED,RED ROSE! Lilliputt was familliar with Robert Burns, she had met him once before and he had read the famous poem to her. It was so strange how Jenni looked like him, they even had the same nose and where Robert Burns was from Jenni only stayed 20 minutes away from there.
Lilliputt chatted away to the twins but she seemed to have more in common with Jenni than what she had with Electrogirl, maybe it was because of Robert Burns.
All the time they were on Carrot Island the twins felt as though they were being watched.....
Lillputt wondered what was so sparkly with Electrogirl.
"You know, you light up a lot. Why is that?", she said curiously as Electrogirl uneasily took a step closer to her sister.
"Huh?... oh, that. I have a lot of energy and that can sparkle at times. I'd like to resaerch it some day."
"Oh", Lilliputt said again not fully understanding the concept of energy. To her energy was usually something she was in great lack of, or so her friend the alien kept telling her."Well, I have started a scientist team, would you like to join?" Lilliputt said feeling proud.
"Yes", said Electrogirl,"how many scientists are there?"
"Uhm", Lilliputt hesitated,"so far there is me."
"Oh", said Electrogirl and tried hard not to giggle at the sweet old lady.
There was a noise comming out of the bushes and suddenly a wolf jumped out behind Lilliputt.
"What is it?" Lilliputt asked as the twins practically jumped in each others arms.
"Look out!" shouted Jenni and together they screamed "there is a wolf behind you." The wolf looked wild and sharp teeth were glittering in the bright sunlight.
"Oh...", said Lilliputt and turned around. "where have you been? Didn't I tell you ta be back earlier? Now, I have to start over dinner."
The twins dropped their jaws as they looked at each other in surprise while the little old lady was telling off the scary looking wolf. They whispered to each other that Lilliputt might be in need of stronger glasses...
The twins were in a state of shock! How could this lady not be scared of the wolf?! Lilliputt had forgotten that she had visiters. "Ohh how could I? Please excuse my bad manners ," said Lilliputt ,"This is my best friend, Becky".
The wolf turned around, she didn't want to look the two young girls in the eye, for her eyes were yellow and ofter shocked people, as if these poor girls weren't scared enough!
Lilliputt explained that the wolf was no threat to them and that Becky was friendly.The twins werent so sure and it took a while for them to trust Becky.
"In Scotland we dont have wolfs that talk", said Jenni.
Lilliputt and Becky's eyes were filled with tears because they were trying to keep there laughter in.
"No, i shouldn't think you have!", blurted out Lilliputt.
Just at that there was a very loud noise and a huge object circled there heads. "OMG!", shouted Electrogirl," Is that a ...a....spaceship?!"
(my stories seem so small compared to yours )
(I think you are doing VERY WELL, dear Jenni You are so funny! )
"What is that meddling alien doing here? I told her that the spaceship is not good for my carrots and ta use that beam thingy some place further away!"
Of course you'd think that a person would react differently when a craft of another planet approaches but Lilliputt only seemed irritated. The twins nedded some time to grasp the situation. A friendly wolf, a meddling alien... well what would show up next. "Hello mother" a voice said and from the opposite direction a cat appeared from where the twin stood. "A .... talking CAT?!" both twins thought as a beam of light spread out and a green creature walked out of there.
"Greetings Earthlings", it announced and bowed clumsily.
"Mistery what have I told you?!, I said you landing on my carrots isn't a very good idea my dear alien!" , Lilliputt said in a tone Mistery had never heard before.
"Ohh ..I'm sorry Lilliputt", Mistery said sadly. "Come here", Lilliputt ordered Mistery, Misery walked over to Lilliputt.
"I want you to meet my new friends, this is Jenni " Lilliputt pointed to the Robert Burns look-alike.
"Butaaaa..isn't that Rober...." Mistery started but did not manage to finish.
"And this is Electrogirl" beamed Lilliputt.
While the twins explored there new surroundings and discussed the new people as it were Lilliputt was having a quiet word with Mistery.
"Ohhh my dear alien....i have a feelin' i know those twins, and da Jenni! She is Robert Burns' spitting image!!
(I tried to speak the Lilliputtish lingo ^^ )
(I am telling you we MUST be related
I am ORDERING da alien around I die!! oh, I hope she NEVER reads this )
"Yes" the alien said though still a little confused at the islanders behaviour. In her studies of humans she had concluded that showing signs of sadness, put humans in a forgiving mood, but the little islander for some reason usually didn't follow any kind of known rational thinking to her knowledge. She was sure she had used the typical tone of sad voice that humans would use to achieve compassion but so far the islander seemed more interested in her studies of some other humans than their friendship. "Am I forgiven?" the alien said quietly.
"What?", Lilliputt said still occupied in thought. "Forgiven? Oh ya means da beamz. Yeah, yeah... you never learn the easiest things do ya, my dear alien. Ya always have ta go analyzin' and stuff. Now... ya got that thingy with da button that goes bzzz and then it flashes?"
This was a very interesting answer and Mistery felt she now understood that trying to analyse the little islander was a waste of time. She sighed and smiled. "Do you mean the tranmodifier?" she said trying to be helpful.
"Yes", Lilliputt said and felt happy her friend understood her so well, "have you made any experiments with that on anyone of late?"
Aww... thaz ok, dearest Becky. I have saved the story on my PC. I can send it to you whenever you wanna read it. I hope to see you soon. Bye, my dear precious friend! HUUUUUUGE WARM
