Summary

Prologue
One evening, Butch Cassidy, a dark brown-haired young man of twenty-two years who wore a blue shirt with a white stripe, a blue ascot, white pants, and white shoes was driving home from a trip to the local mini-mart in his 2014 Nissan Cube when he heard a loud pop.

"That's odd," said Butch.

Butch pulled the car over, and when he investigated the source of the pop, he saw that one of the tires had burst.

"Whoops," said Butch, "Must've hit some sharp rocks or something."

Butch got a car jack, a lug wrench, and a spare tire out of the back of the vehicle.

"Good thing I have this spare tire," Butch said.

He soon got to work. However, Just as he was unscrewing the first lug, he heard a rustling in the bushes. He looked to find the source, but found nothing.

"Must've been the wind," Butch said.

Butch resumed working, and suddenly heard footsteps.

"Who's there," Butch asked.

No response came.

"Okay," Butch thought to himself, "I'm officially freaked out now."

Just then, Butch saw a green-skinned humanoid creature with dark red hair and eyes with yellow sclera and black pupils and wearing a black shirt, a dark green trench coat with matching pants and black shoes fastly approaching him.

"Uh oh," Butch said to himself.

The creature moved closer and closer to Butch.

"Mommy," Butch cried.

But it was too late. The creature slugged Butch hard, causing him to fall down. The creature then started dragging him and slumped him over a drainage pipe.

"Help," Butch cried weakly.

Butch then slipped into unconsciousness.

Story
That same evening, four friends and their dog were traveling home after a long night on the town in a yellow 1965 Ford Taunus Transit van. At the wheel was Shaun Carlson, who was an eighteen-year-old blond youth who wore a blue-striped cardigan over a white t-shirt, gray glasses, blue jeans, and white sneakers. In the passenger seat was seventeen-year-old Rebecca Morgan, better known as "Sunset Shimmer", who wore a black leather jacket with studded lapels, a purple tank top with a sun image on it, an orange skirt with yellow and purple stripes going down one side, and black and purple boots. The other three passengers were nineteen-year-old Alonso Espina, a Hispanic boy who wore a dark green hoodie over a dark red t-shirt, blue-gray jeans, and multicolor sneakers, Clarice Metzger, also known as "Gloriosa Daisy", who was the same age as Sunset and wore a flower headband, a crystal necklace, yellow and green blouse, blue shorts, and brown leather closed-toe sandals with flowers stitched onto them, and Alonso's dog, a teal hound named Goober, who wore an orange beanie with a yellow stripe and pom-pom and a red dog collar.

"So, Shaun," said Sunset, "How do you think that Jumanji film was?"

"I thought it was pretty good," said Shaun.

"I loved it," said Gloriosa.

"So did I," said Alonso.

"It stinks that dogs aren't allowed in the cinema," said Goober.

"Don't worry, Goober," said Shaun, "Once it hits the DVD rack, we'll get it."

Just then, Sunset spotted a pair of white pants with white shoes sticking over the drainage pipe.

"STOP," Sunset shouted.

Shaun immediately floored the brake pedal.

"What's the matter, Sunny," asked Shaun.

Sunset pointed to what she saw.

"Better check it out," said Shaun.

Shaun pulled the van over and the friends investigated. There, they made a rather unpleasent surprise when Shaun saw the face of the owner of the clothes.

"It's Butch," said Shaun.

Shaun then pulled Butch over. Butch had a black eye and a bloody nose. On top of that, his clothes had scratches all over them. Sunset grabbed the first aid kit out of the van's glove compartment as well as a water bottle. It didn't take too long for Butch to regain consciousness.

"Butch," asked Alonso, "What happened, mi amigo?"

"It..it got me," said Butch.

"What got you," asked Sunset.

Butch relayed everything that had happened.

"Well, guys," said Sunset, "it's time to go to work!"
