An Idiot's Chronicle

Chapter 1: Assignment to Do

It was just an average day at Ms. Butterbean's class as she was just about to give an assignment to her students.

"Students, you are going to be assign to write your own story" said Ms. Butterbean, "the minimal amount of work should be roughly 40 pages long. The assignment will be due in three weeks, and I advise you all to start immediately."

"Oh boy, we get an assignment!" cried Billy with excitement, "But I gots no ideas for my story."

"How about that stupid Happy Nowhere story you once told Grim and me about?" asked Mandy as they were leaving class for the day.

"But Mandy, I do not have a computer and you forbid me to use yours" said Billy.

"True, that happened after you downloaded that virus" added Mandy.

"But I thought I was going to win the lottery" replied Billy.

"No one can just simply win just that instantly" said Mandy to which as she and Billy had gotten onto a bus and headed off to home.

"But I just need something to be able to write my story" said Billy, "there's just got to be someone to be able to write my story for me."

"Hmm, maybe Grim might know someone who could help you" said Mandy.

The scene the switches back to Mandy's house where Grim was just simply watching television on the sofa.

"Grim!" cried Billy to which scared the Grim Reaper right up into the ceiling and down back to the sofa.

"What do you want Billy?" asked Grim as he dusted himself off.

"Billy wants help into writing this story for an assignment" replied Mandy, "and I forbid him to access my computer or for that matter anyone else's."

"Hmm, now that you mention" said Grim as he thought to himself, "there's one sort of person who could be able to assist Billy. I know, the Ghostwriter."

"You mean an anonymous writer?" asked Mandy.

"No, the Ghostwriter" replied Grim as he took out his scythe and formed a portal, "we're going to go off to the ghost zone to meet him."

As Grim, Mandy and Billy left Mandy's house they entered to be what looked like a large door. Grim then knocked right on it to which a man in a scarf and some sort of goatee beard answered the door.

"Grim, what a pleasant surprise to see you" said the Ghostwriter, "just who are these two?"

"These two are Mandy and Billy, my, uh, friend-masters" replied Grim.

"It's been quite some time since you helped me get a good lawyer to get out of Walker's prison" said the Ghostwriter as he let the three in, "so what can I do for you?"

"Billy has to write a story for his assignment and it seems that your fancy supernatural computer seems to fit the bill for the job" replied Grim.

"I see" said the Ghostwriter to which after a few seconds, the Ghostwriter then agreed with Grim, "well, since you managed to get a good lawyer to get me out of Walker's prison I can guess that Billy can use my computer."

"Yea!" cried Billy as he rushed right toward the supernatural computer, "I'm going to write my story on Happy Nowhere Village!"

"Uh, do you have anything that'll protect the magic of your supernatural computer now that Billy is just about to write his story?" asked Grim.

"Sure thing" replied the Ghostwriter as he got out some sort of strange rings for Grim, Mandy and himself, "now these rings so long as you wear them shall make you immune to the power of the supernatural computer."

"Let's just hope these things work their charm" said Grim as he noticed that Billy was beginning to type on the supernatural computer.

"Okay, let's see, the title of my story, oh, I know a Tale of Two Cities" said Billy as he was just about to type it.

"That has already been taken Billy" said Grim as he leaned over.

"Fine, I'll just have to use this title-The Day that Happy Nowhere Village Met Mean Nowhere Village!" said Billy as he began to type the pathetic title on the supernatural computer.

Billy's narration:

Okay, the scene is set in Happy Nowhere Village as the happy villagers of Happy Nowhere Village had just elected Chuck, the formerly evil wizard as their leader.

"I am so happy that you people have elected me as your mayor" laughed Chuck with such happy joy.

But even while the people of Happy Nowhere Village were enjoying their wealth, a few miles away, in another village was not so-happy. The village in question was the Mean Nowhere Village. Where a mean, cruel mayor known as, uh, Vlad Masters was in control. Now old Vlad never wanted people in the village to ever be happy to which why he changed the name to Mean Nowhere Village to make them miserable. He was also the only one to be the richest of them all.

"Yes, this is the sort of power I have always desired" laughed Vlad quite in an evil manner looking down at the miserable subjects.

Even though the mayor of Mean Nowhere Village was always mean and terrible, his semi-adoptive daughter-Danielle Masters was quite the opposite. Now this made Vlad quite mad as mayor of Mean Nowhere Village, he kept on crushing any sort of desire for her to have any happiness as one time in her life she drew a rainbow which made the mayor tear it to pieces.

"No, no, no!" cried Vlad as he grabbed the piece of paper with the rainbow drawn on it, "This isn't what I have in mind! These sort of things are not allowed in my village, and you are my daughter like it or not."

"But I can't help it" said Danielle, "you make everybody miserable here. That includes all of those high taxes you demand to make them pay, and you made the Fenton family one of the most miserable families."

"Hey, I make everybody miserable" laughed Vlad.

End of Billy's narration.

"Hmm, what do you think Ghostwriter?" asked Grim as he was overlooking Billy's work so far.

"Even for the mind of an idiot" said the Ghostwriter, "this is pretty good for his level."

"I say we change Billy's stupid title" suggested Mandy.

"To what?" asked the Ghostwriter.

"How about An Idiot's Chronicles, because only an idiot like Billy could make up names like Happy Nowhere Village or Mean Nowhere Village" replied Mandy.

"Seems fair enough" said the Ghostwriter as he was helping Billy change the title.

"Wow, I'm going to get an A for sure on this" said Billy.

"Oh most likely at least a C" added Grim.
