The Chicken Lady

Comedy

One sunday morning, In Jerusalem a jealous king wanted the Jews to leave. So he sent his messenger to the town. The messenger declared the news and the town was furious.They were yelling, and whining for 3 months. No one wanted to be the one to accept the challenge for if they ruin there whole village would be mad at them.
For another month the worring and concerns went on, until a old woman who goes by the name "Chicken Lady" volunteered. But no one wanted her to be the one because she was supposedly "wierd". But no one else would go up so they said okay.
Three weeks later the king arrived on his chariot. The king rode up until he got to the open floorboard place for dancing and special occasions. Then he called for his volunteer and no one else. When she came he asked "What is your name". "Chicken Lady", she answered. Oh really, thought the king. This shall be quite easy. So the challenge started. The king put out his two arms toward her, but she put up her fist. The king was suprised, "Well done", he said. Then the king put out his two fingers but she put her up her hand sideways. The king said "Yes, quite right", shakily. For the last sign he grabbed out a moldy piece of cheese and the "Chicken Lady" brought out a ripe apple. The king was in shock. "Y-y-you've done it" he said astounded. So the king hurried away on his chariot.
When he got home his advisors asked him how it went. He said, "I lost". "But how" they chimed. "Well", he started. " I put out my two hand showing that there was two gods me and the one up high. But she answered by putting up her fist saying no there is only one god and it is not you. So then i put out my two fingers showing that they are a scattered town with cooperability but she put up he hand saying no we are one and united. So then for my final sign i pulled out a moldy, rotten piece of cheese saying that the jews are old and rotten people but she pulled out a ripe apple saying that, no we are new and fresh".
Back in the village the "Chicken Lady" was telling her people how the challenge went. "Well" she started. "First the king put out his hands seeming to grab me but i put out my fist saying if you even touch me i will sock you one. Then he put out his two fingers towards my eyes but i put out my hand and blocked him. For the last part he pulled out his lunch so i pulled out mine".
So the jews stayed.
