Neoxian City: Writing Prompt #15

Hello Hivers,

The infamous April Fool’s Day is fast approaching. Some of us might be thinking of the next joke or prank to play on someone or reminiscing about being caught - off guard of course. On this day pranksters have an excuse to practice their craft. Whether you are the prankster or victim and got tricked or not, it can be a day full of laughter and practical jokes or somewhat embarassing.

This is a monthly event where a prompt is shared. You can write a story based on the prompt below.

Before you start writing, please read the following Guidelines which can always be found in the #city-prompt.

Guidelines
a. Write your entries using the Neoxian City frontend.
