Zee Froggie Major

Clad in their bright green cobalt suits, Zee Froggies were very much like the name suggested. Codenamed ZF, they were the B.I.I.P.O's most efficient, effective and establised strike force. Often selected from the country's most talented triatheletes, they were equally competent on land and in the water. They would run, jump, hop, crawl, swim, dive, snorkel and (of course) do the rest of the stereotypical Ninja Turtle business.

They were in for a shock.

Major Kermit III */// narrowed his eyes at the desolated landscape that lay before him in disbelief. "And how are we going to nab this unknown thing from this messy unknown place with an unknown gender and an unknown age when the odds of nabbing it are unknown!" he exclaimed in exasperation. His men had scoured the area five times over but had yet to locate their target.

Then came revelation- a tapioca chip auction. Regaining his composure, Zee Froggie Major began to order his servile underlings about; allocating them tasks, such as making a big hullaboo on purpose about the auction to catch everyone's attention, while he sat by the road sipping his tumbler of hot cocoa. He was confident of receiving his fourth stripe.

The auction sailed smoothly. The bag of tapioca chips was haggled over and fought over, as planned. Froggies in plain clothes had been planted among the bidders to spread rumours about its mystical properties in order to increase the item's value, and to stir up petty rivalries. The auction was won by a vertically-changed creature with enormous statellite dish-like ears.

Major Kermit */// waited for the crowd to disperse before walking up casually to the winner, congratulating 'it' and incapacitating 'it' with vicious blow to the torso. It was too late.

*/// represents a star and three stripes received from His Royal Greenery. Stars are awarded for courage in battle and stripes for impressive service and leadership, or for proposing tactically brilliant strategies on combat missions.
