"I swear I don't have any money!" Arthur screamed, terrified. Rodney the neighborhood terror had him by the collar oh his shirt.
"Are you sure?" Rodney asked threateningly, shoving Arthur up on the brick wall. "Cuz I saw you with a twenty when you left this morning!"
"I spent it on lunch and a haircut and I left the rest as a tip!" he squeaked, terrified in the dark alley. Both boys' necks snapped to left at the sound of skateboards.
"Is there a problem here?" asked a voice that resounded all around them.
"Help! H-" Arthur shouted, but was muffled by Rodney's hand.
"Beat it!" Rodney shouted. "Or you'll get it too!"
"Wouldn't that be a shame, Rodney?" another voice asked.
"H-how do you know my name?" Rodney asked. His question was greeted with laughter that sparkled all around them. "Wh-who are you?"
"Your worst nightmare." said a monster voice. Rodney squealed in pain and fell to the ground as something hit him in the groin. Hard.
"Run Arthur!" the second voice shouted. He didn't need telling twice.
"We'll leave you to think about what you've done." two voices rang out in the dark alley, followed by the scraping of two skateboards. Rodney was left in darkness, the only sound being his own whimper of pain.

Snow and Tara were skateboarding around looking for trouble. They had decided to be superheroes and were so far being successful. They had just completed their second raid with triumph. Snow was sleeping over at Tara's, but had to go home tomorrow after church so they wanted to get one last raid in.
"Come on, Tar! I think I heard someone!" Snow whispered. In the not so distance they heard "I spent it on lunch and a haircut and I left the rest as a tip!"
"They're in the alley!" Tara whispered back. They rode the skateboards into the alley and could practically feel the boys eyes in their direction.
"Is there a problem here?" Snow's voice echoed.
"Help! H-" said the nerdy boy with glasses that was against the wall before the tall, strong, beefy boy covered his mouth with a chubby hand.
"Beat it or you'll get it too!" the fat one shouted.
"Wouldn't be a shame, Rodney?" Tara asked. She recognized the idiot from school. He had been held back about four times and was twice as tall and large as any student there. Snow looked at Tara through her night vision goggles and watched her mouth 'Arthur.'
"H-how do you know my name?" Rodney asked, terrified. The girls laughed together just to scare him more. "Wh-who are you?"
"Your worst nightmare." Snow replied in her monster voice before kicking him in the crotch from behind. Hard. He squealed like the pig he was and released Arthur as he fell to the ground. "Run Arthur!" Snow told him and Snow didn't think she ever seen someone as dorky as him move so quickly.
"We'll leave you to think about what you've done." they said. It was what they always told the 'bad guy' after a raid and they skateboarded away leaving Rodney in the dark. They reached Tara's house quicker than usual.
"That was awesome!" Tara whispered as they entered the dark house.
"I know. I can't believe the old 'worst nightmare' cliché worked." Snow whispered back. They were supposed to be sleeping.
"That was your best idea ever, Snow! Remind me how you thought of it."
"Well, Elizabeth was watching VeggieTales and the Larryboy theme song comes on and I heard 'there's no need to panic cuz this guy is manic and you know that he'll save the day' and I just thought it'd be cool to be a symbol of hope. A superhero."
"Okk. Nevermind. Come on let's get to my room before my folks see that we're gone." they rushed up the stairs and fell asleep before their heads hit the pillow.
