The next day, Roary and Fetch decided to invite another friend over for the night, Quackie the duck. But Roary wanted to have a sleepover in his cave. Fetch didn't want to sleep in a cold and dusty old cave and said she would bring a tent and sleep outside. But Quackie had a better idea: Why not go camping! So Roary, Fetch, and Quackie packed some food and things into a wagon and pulled it along until they found a good spot for a fire.
Once the fire was going, everyone ate marshmallows and sang songs and talked about the moon and stars. Then someone brought up the idea to tell scary stories! Roary and Fetch weren't very good at telling scary stories. Roary tried to spook everyone with a tale of the day a chicken nugget fell on the floor for longer than five seconds. Fetch told a story about getting a flea on her ear that wouldn't leave her be.
But Quackie's was the scariest of all. The Tale of the Deformed Duckling gave Fetch and Roary shivers that lasted until they were bundled up in their sleeping bags, when all the scary melted away into comfy. They knew they were safe, and they fell asleep fast and didn't have a single nightmare.
