Fifi was reading her book outside the Acme Looniversity building. She was humming Alouette, enjoying the peace and quiet. Not only that, but she was also laying on a pink, heart-shaped pillow that had white fringe all around it. The French skunk giggled from reading a passage that she thought was hilarious. “Oh, whoever wrote zis silly story de l’amour needs some professional tips from a true expert.” She flipped the next page just before something big and neon yellow crept this way.

It was slowly approaching her without being seen. As a matter of fact, there was a subtle hissing coming from behind. Because Fifi was terribly focused on the book, she hardly even noticed that the thing was coming her way. Since she’s reading underneath a tree, not even the shade from the massive thing even caught her attention. It was until the thing reached her book and starts shoving it towards her face.

“Pardon moi?” She reacted in French. Fifi place the book on her knees and to her surprise, something was in her way. “Sacre bleu!” She peeped. “Or more like jaune fluo…” She saw a massive balloon that was still being inflated. “Who’s doing zat!?” She hollered at the orb’s side. “Who’s ree-spon-see-bull for zis!?”

Who do you think is doing this and why?
