"Now, don't kill me." Mei Mei said to the largest hen that was closest to her. "I just need one egg, that is if the size of your eggs matches up to your bizarre size. What did they feed you to grow this big? You are not a chicken, you are a chicken-strich, half chicken-half ostrich." She tiptoed further and further into the barn.
The hen closed its eyes, it seemed to be rather bored and tired of waiting for her to make a move. The rest of the chicken were dozing peacefully, nestled on piles of gigantic eggs.
Mei Mei reached the hen, reached under it and touched one egg.
"Mommy, Mingzhu has come to help." Her daughter's loud childish voice called out from the entrance of the bar.
Shit! Mei Mei thought.
The hen snapped opened its beady eyes.
Double shit!! Mei Mei thought.
She grabbed the egg tighter and turned around to escape and that was when she heard the loudest screech she had ever heard in her life. It was loud enough to wake the dead.
