She didn't want to believe that all these things that her sisters were saying were true. But the more they kept telling her, the more worried she was. She kept telling herself that she was not a chicken. When she woke up the next morning she was happy to see that she was perfectly normal, except, she found an egg in her bed and feathers on the floor. She was a chicken. She decied that she had to find her real family, so she snuck out of the house and walked down the road to the farm. She found the chicken and joinded them and did everything they were doing. Her two sisters found her with the chickens and told her that she needed to come home, they were in trouble for telling her that she was a chicken. They tried to tell her that she was not a chicken, but she kept saying she was, she would not believe them that she was not a chicken. Everything they said she would not listion to them, even the famer said that he would like to be a chicken, and he let her stay with the chickens.
