Don't Touch the Butt

Once upon a time there was a cold cloudy day. There was definitely a chance of meatballs. (Cloud with a Chance of Meatballs reference anyone?) A parakeet was out in the rain, hunting for worms when the worms revolted. They didn't want to be eaten, so they decided the parakeet must die. With lightning speed, the worms asked the owl to help them. He quickly agreed, because no one messes with the worms. The worms, by the way, were covered in glitter.
So the owl and worms came up with a plan. When the parakeet took the bait of a worm squirming on the ground, the owl swooped in. He grabbed the parakeet like his prey and flew away. The purple parakeet was so surprised that she dropped the worm. The owl took the parakeet home and was about to eat her injured body and all, when a male parakeet swooped in angrily.
"Step back!" the male parakeet snapped at the owl, getting between the two. "You will not harm her!" (Harry Potter reference anyone? ^.^) The owl looked at the male parakeet like he was retarded, and moved towards the two parakeets. As fast as a speeding bullet, the male parakeet pecked the owl in between the eyes. The owl flew away in pain, being the coward that he was.
As he took flight though, his wing clipped the male parakeet, sending him tumbling to the ground. The female parakeet followed after and a faint thud was heard where they hit the ground. Their bodies were too broken to be able to move, so they just laid on the ground waiting for someone to come eat them.
A hunter found them that fateful day and decided they would make a great birthday present for his niece once they healed up. So he picked them carefully up and went home. He plopped them into a cage with a volcano in it and walked off. The cage was a miserable place to be and the parakeets never were fully healed. All they had to look forward to was the fact that the butterfly told them the niece with metal in her mouth couldn't keep an animal alive for more than a few minutes. They would die of shaking.
THE END
Can you find anymore references that I didn't point out in the story? ^.^
