The sad saga of Quax the duck

Once upon an Easter time there was a little yellow chocolate duck named Quax...



Quax lived happily in a little shelf with his cholcolate duck family, patiently waiting for the right family to adopt him. The day that he was taken off the shelf was so exciting! He was told by a very nice lady that he was going to a new home with a young boy named JP who would love him. Quax saw a bright future ahead and was happy. Several days pass and Quax was told that he would meet his new family at a local park that night. How sad he was when the car left without him. However he had faith that soon he would meet the mysterious boy named JP. The very next day he was tended carefully in climate controlled vehicles and a law office. At noon he was to be given to JP's mom to take care of him till he met JP. How exciting it was that things were moving quickly.  In the middle of the day, which was unseasonably warm, Quax was taken to a new office and was handed to JP's mom who was by her car as she needed to run errands. the nice lady that found Quax on the shelf and brought him to JP"s mom did talk about how she was careful not to leave him in the car in the heat.. and JP's mom promised to be careful with him as well. Quax and JP's mom soon were off in a warmer, but bearable car. They had to make 2 stops. Quax was tired at the first stop and asked to lie down take a nap and assured JP's mom that the car was fine and comfy and he would be fine. He was snoring when she was done so she did not check him. On the way back she stopped at another store for longer then expected due to a problem at the register. She did ask Quax if he was still ok.. and he assured her he was still fine.

However, lets remember that Quax is a hollow duck and well.. rather empty headed.

On the way back to her office, JP's mom picked up Quax to see how he was doing as he had fallen oddly silent.... turns out that Quax had underestimated his ability to stay full of life in the heat.



JP's mom wondered what to do as Quax was no longer able to help.. he was also hard to understand and mumbled everything at this point... Well it turns out that there is a Hollow Chocolate Duckie hospital called Rite Aid. the next day Quax was miraculously revived...


However... lets also remember that Quax is a chocolate duck... and although revived enough to meet JP finally... the love that JP had for him... was because he was chocolate....
