Chapter 1

"Okay, you wazz-bags got your money, so somebody take me home,"Ellie said in frustration as the two teenage girls, Sam Puckett and Cat Valentine, were cheering about finally getting their money from the rocket intended for her stuffed animal

"Sure, let's take you home right now. Could you wait a minute? Goomer has to adjust the seat for you," said Sam with a mysterious and cunning grin the young 11 year girl did not seem to notice

"That sounds suspicious good for you, but ok,"said Ellie as she bent down to grab Poober, her childhood stuffed animal that Sam and Cat were originally assigned to get rid of

"Wait a second,"Ellie paused and thought to herself; "Why would they ever give up on getting rid of Poober?" before she froze when she suddenly heard some tires screeching

"Hey, what the heck!; You guys can't just leave me here in a cemetery shack!" as she began running after Goomer's truck but tripped over a rock
"Looks like it's just you and me, kid; Well, you, me And my ukulele," said the guy that used to work at the Pear Store back in Seattle; Ellie got off the ground and covered her ears as the man sang his song

It's midnight.
And I'm a-waiting on a 12:05.
Hoping it'll take me just a little farther down the line.
Ooh! Ah! Playing with the Queen of Hearts.
Knowin' it ain't really smart

"Por unos momentos, estuve silenciado, pero ahora, me," said the foreign radio in Spanish

"I'd know what he just said if I spoke Spanish," said Cat in frustration as the radio got turned off

"And you'd understand this. Si no encontramos nuestra pina llena de dinero tendre que agarrar unas tijeras y cortarse los dedos de los pies," said Sam in very fluent Spanish

"Gracias?," said Cat even though she had little to no idea what her roommate had just said to her

"I'm just messing with you, kid. Look at the bright side," said Sam as she felt happy

"What's the worst that could happen?," asked Cat "I'm sure she'll sleep at that guy's shack over there in the cemetery. By the time we go pick her up in the morning, I'm sure she'll learn her lesson!"

~2 minutes later, Cemetery~

"How about I sing it again?," suggested the Pear Store guy as he adjusted his ukulele

"Shut up!," yelled Ellie as she was starting to get irritated from listening to the same song for the 3rd time in a row

Heartbroken and upset, the man quietly walked in towards the small shed. The man locked the door from behind and said, "Now that I'm away from her, I can finally play my ukulele as much as I want!" before he started to hit the strings again

"I can't believe that mom would ever actually hire someone to get rid of Poober," said the heartbroken girl as she began sobbing

~30 minutes later~

"So here is the deal. We go pick her at 7 a.m," suggested Cat as she changed into her pajamas

"Aw, man. Can't you make it 11 a.m?," suggested Sam in a lazy manner as she happened to be a late sleeper

"Fine, whatever," surrendered Cat as she went into her bed before she heard thunder

~Few hours later, Cemetery; 4 A.M~

Ellie was now becoming to get exhausted and fell on the ground in defeat; Ellie tried to get up but felt defeated by her exhausted brain

"I have got to stop relying so much on coffee," Ellie noted to herself as she tried to drag herself. Ellie froze when she began to hear footsteps but passed out

~8 hours later~

Sam and Cat were now ready to leave their apartment: Cat was drinking her afternoon coffee while Sam was watching the news

"BREAKING NEWS: A bear found in the bushes near V's coffee shop that was originally conceived as dead actually turned out to have been just knocked out"

"Let's go now," ordered Cat as she threw her coffee into the trash can like she was a basketball player

"Knock, knock, knock," the door answered suddenly

Cat walked from the kitchen and opened the door

"Hi, Cat. I'm here to pick up Ellie," answered Kim's beautiful looking mother

"She's not here, right now," answered Cat in a nervous manner, referencing the previous night at the cemetery

"Oh, is she playing in the park with her friend Kim?," guessed Ellie's mother

"She's in a cemetery," Cat nervously answered

"They made a new playground in the cemetery?," asked Ellie's mom in amusement

"No, we kind of left her there last night," said Cat in a normal tone, not realizing her mistake

"You what?!," asked Kim's mother in an angry manner and slapped her hard in the face

"Ow!," yelled Cat as she grabbed her bleeding mouth, now missing a baby tooth

"Hey, what the hell is going on out here?!", yelled Sam in a rude manner as she walked out towards the front door, now facing Kim's angry looking mother

"You left my kid in a cemetery?!," yelled Kim's mom as she pulled the blonde girl by the ear

"Hey, we can explain!," yelled Sam, now completely overwhelmed by the pain originating from her ear lobe

~5 minutes later~

Sam had just finished explaining everything that had happened last night

"You too are the worst babysitters I have ever hired!," Ellie's mom scolded both the girls

"Hey, we just did what you hired us to do!," countered Sam, even though it didn't seem like a strong argument

"I hired you two brats to persuade her to let go of that bear!; Not to just abandon her like that!," yelled Kim's mother

"We are sorry, miss," apologized Cat as she quickly realized her mistake and bowed down in front of her, hoping for forgiveness

"I can see you are sorry, but sorry won't bring my daughter back!; I'll give you 6 hours to find Ellie, and if you don't: I'm calling the police and getting you arrested!," threatened Kim's mom

"So, do we get paid more if we find your daughter?," asked Sam in an inappropriate manner

Kim's mother got infuriated at Sam and slammed the door in her face and left

"I guess that's a no," said Sam

"Sam, you are being really inconsiderate. She's right, we did the wrong thing and now we have to go look for Ellie and tell her we are sorry," scolded Cat as she ran towards the motorcycle, completely horrified of her actions the previous night
