Chapter 3: Bulge
 

“Cripes! I’m ten ounces overweight!” Secret Agent Disco Dancer cried. “It must have been that giant bowl of flyball soup I ate last night. Or perhaps it was that triple-decker Forbidden Fudge Brownie Sundae! Hmm...let’s see here...” He leaned on one foot. “Eek! Two more ounces? How can I be a secret agent with this big belly of mine? They’ll take away my License to Croak...kick me out of the Frogternity...I’ve got to lose the lard fast! This is my greatest challenge of all time: The Battle of the Bulge!” He hopped off the scale.

 

“You’re not pretending to be a secret agent again, are you dad?” said his son Laike. Laike was still a wee frogling, with dark blue skin and his father’s beady eyes.

“But I am a secret agent, son.” Secret Agent Disco Dancer grabbed a pair of dumbbells and began exercising.

“Yeah, right!” Laike sneered. “If you’re really a secret agent, aren’t you supposed to...you know...keep it a secret?”

“I don’t expect you to understand, son.” The father strained with the weights. After a few sets, he finally relented.

“Well I’m not going to let you run off again. The last time you did, you were gone for six months. Eventually I found you in some kid’s house, trying to convince them that you were Super Frog.”

 

“But I am Super Frog, see?” Secret Agent Disco Dancer grabbed a bar full of weights and lifted it over his head.

“Sure you are...”

Suddenly Secret Agent Disco Dancer’s cell phone rang.

“Great Scott! A distress call!!!” He tossed the weights aside.

“Careful, dad!” Laike ducked as the weights crashed through the floor, sending splinters of wood flying through the air.

Secret Agent Disco Dancer shrugged and answered the phone. “Yes, Mr. President...I see, Mr. President. What?! The world is in danger? Great horny toads! Evil must be working overtime these days.” His red eyes flared. “What am I doing today? Well, I was planning on attending the annual Twinkle festival in Downtown Disney. But when duty calls, everyone must make sacrifices, even the most fearless of frogs.”

He paced the floor, growing more and more concerned. “Frogwart Fisk, again, hmm? Why am I not surprised? Fear not, Mr. President. Pot belly or no pot belly, I’ll put a cork in that stinky tree frog once and for all!”

Secret Agent Disco Dancer tucked the cell phone in his coat pocket and ran for the door. “Time to go to work. Take care of momma frog while I’m gone, ok?” He waved and exited the gym.

“Here we go again.” Laike rolled his eyes.
