Mrs Van De Tramp released 13 être verbs that caused chaos across the globe. The verbs each had strange powers and behaviors, such as "Immortal Mort" who went in circles forever, and "Resting Resté" who went on strike and did nothing. Another, "Snotty Sorti", never went back indoors after leaving and got a cold. Eventually, heroes were able to defeat the verbs - "Amazing Allé" was shot, "Return of the Retourné" got the plague, and "Angry Arrivé" was arrested. Mrs Van De Tramp was then sentenced to prison for as long as "Immortal Mort" shall live.

1. HELP! IT’S THE ÊTRE VERBS!
Thomas C
To the rescue!

2.  Until the evil Mrs Van De Tramp released 13
être verbs, and caused chaos across the globe!

3.  The first was a zombie
called ‘Immortal
Mort’. Because he was
dumb, he went round
in circles forever.
 The second was
‘Resting Resté’. He
went on strike, and just
sat waiting for
something exciting to
happen. It never came.

4.  The third was ‘Snotty
Sorti’. Ever since he
first walked out of a
door, he never went
back in again. This led
to a huge cold.
 The fourth was
‘Unavailable Venu’.
She comes but never
arrives to anything.

5.  The fifth was
‘Amazing Allé’. He
was the most quickest,
the most handsome,
and the most
unobservant criminal
there was.
 The sixth was ‘New
Né’. She was obviously
too old to fight.

6.  The seventh was
‘Descending
Descendu’. He was
stuck descending
stairs he’d been going
down for his whole
life.
 The eighth was
‘Never-ending Entré’.
Whatever door she
went in, she had to go
through another door.

7.  The ninth was ‘Tired
Tombé’. He lived in
midair, fell for all
eternity, and never
slept. Unfortunately his
falling spot was above
Mount Etna. Oh dear!
 The tenth was ‘Return
of the Retourné. If you
meet him, you’re dead.

8.  The eleventh was
‘Angry Arrivé’. Once he
returned, he could never
leave, which made him
furious!
 The twelfth was
‘Mountaineering
Monté’. He tried to get in
by climbing the walls. He’s
still doing that as we
speak.
 The thirteenth was ‘Love-
to-party Parti’. He was
attending his 670th party.

9.  Nothing. ‘Amazing
Allé’ was easily shot,
‘Return of the Retourné’
got the plague, ‘Angry
Arrivé’ was quickly
arrested, and the rest
didn’t turn up to the
battlefield.
 Mrs Van De Tramp was
then arrested, and was
sentenced to prison for as
long as ‘Immortal Mort’
shall live.
