PPP-1 Live On National TV

 

 Bobby was watching the Giant/Dodger game at home on TV when the view of his PPP-1 appeared on the screen.  It seemed bigger than life has it took up the whole picture.  Bobby could even read his name on the fuselage.  He had put his name on it the night before in case he lost it.  The PPP-1 wasn’t lost anymore but it would not be an easy retrieve.  The stadium was over 50 miles away and people were already starting to throw things at the PPP-1 in order to dislodge it.  Bobby watched with the rest of the world, as the PPP-1 seemed to magically plummet from the beam.  The camera followed the plane with a close-up shot.  Bobby thought he could see ants running all over the wings as the plane dove and looped towards the ground.  To the worlds surprise the plane leveled out and landed on a railing high in the upper seats.
     Wise-ant had ordered the maneuver, spotting a piece of hotdog on the railing; he had directed a landing right next to it.  The other ants were hurrying to load the soon to be feast as a large group of people who had seen the landing ran towards the PPP-1.  The ants were working fast but the crowd was faster.  They had just loaded the hotdog when the plane was grabbed by someone.  The ants had seen that there was two people leading the pack, one was weird looking and wore thick glasses and the other was your basic nice looking person.  The ants were hoping that if they were going to be caught they would be caught by the nice looking guy.  They were briefly relieved when the nice looking kid picked up the plane, but that disintegrated quickly as the kid threw the plane straight into a wall.  The ants were stunned, they watched in horror as the weird looking kid picked up the PPP-1.  The ants were surprised when the kid re-creased the wings and straightened the nose where it had crumpled with the Wall collision.
     Still staring at the TV, Bobby watched as the weird looking kid re-launched the PPP-1 high into the stadium air.  Wise-ant quickly barked commands and soon they had worked the lift out of the stadium.  Centered in the rising thermal the ants gathered at the center of gravity and were feasting on baseball stadium hotdog while drifting downwind oblivious to the world.
