Here is a story I've wanted to do once I saw the incredible movie 'Smallfoot' and I couldn't wait to post it! Enjoy and no flames please!
WARNING! Contains spoilers for the movie 'Smallfoot'.
At a local restaurant located in the United States countryside, Percy Patterson was inside having dinner. He was the only customer there because his friend, a gentle yet giant Yeti named Migo, had accidentally frightened all the other customers and waited outside for his food.
A while ago, Percy Patterson, a wildlife documentary filmmaker arrived to Nepal in the Himalayas and tried to stage a fake Yeti sighting to boost his ratings.
However, Percy got the shock of his life when Migo, a real Yeti appeared before him. Although Percy was terrified of Migo at first, Percy and Migo became close friends and after saving Migo and his friends from the persecution of the local police by disguising himself as a Yeti and throwing the police off their tracks.
After Percy's selfless act, Migo and his fellow Yetis learned that even though humans may still be scared of the Yetis, but decided that they should still try to communicate with them. The Yetis leave the village and after Percy and his assistant Brenda emerge from the crowd and police barricade and stand up for the Yetis, the humans slowly welcome the Yetis and accept them into their lives.
Ever since that day, Percy and Migo have been traveling the world doing interviews. Migo was happy to see the world after living in his remote Yeti village high on a mountain.
But...Migo couldn't help but feel a little homesick.
Migo spotted a woman and her daughter walking down the sidewalk. Her daughter waved at Migo. Migo smiled and was about to wave back until the girl's mother pulled her close and walked faster.
The chef, who was also the manager of the restaurant, went outside to deliver Migo's meal. He looked up at Migo with large, wary eyes before bringing the Yeti his food and rushing back inside.
Migo sighed. He wished humans weren't so afraid of him, but he just had to deal with it. The Yeti picked up the warm pot, sniffed its contents, then took a sip. Eyes lit up with satisfaction, Migo slurped the whole pot of soup.
Percy walked outside and smiled seeing Migo enjoying his meal. "Taste good, big fella?"
Migo growled and licked his lips in satisfaction.
"Well, now that both our bellies are full, we better head back to the Himalayas! Brenda has been blowing up my phone like crazy!"
Happy with his meal, Migo stood up to his full height, he heard a scream and a crash coming from the parking lot. That's when he saw a frightened man running out of his car that was ran into a street light. Apparently, he scared that man, causing him to crash.
Percy heard a low growling and saw the hurt look on Migo's face. He rubbed the Yeti's ankle. "Don't feel bad, Gruff. It'll take some time for the world to get used to you."
Migo and Percy can't understand each others' languages, but they try to communicate as best as they can. Percy decided to call Migo 'Gruff' because of the Yeti's low gruff, growly voice.
"We better hurry to the airport, Gruff." said Percy. He hopped into his truck that had a huge platform attached to the hitch. It was strong and sturdy enough hold Migo's weight and carry him anywhere. The Yeti sat on the platform and was ready to go. Percy took of forever into the night
Thunder rumbled and Percy saw dark clouds in the night sky. The storm had already hit as Percy drove down the dark street. Luckily, Migo had a huge waterproof tarp to protect him from the rain. Migo wasn't used to rain. It was like falling snow but it made his fur all wet and drippy. So he wasn't a fan of the rain.
Percy had his windshield wipers going at full speed to navigate through the storm. It was strange how this storm occured all of a sudden. "Blimey. This storm is nasty-"
CRASH!
A large object landed on the hood of Percy's truck. Panicking, Percy screamed and swerved, crashing to the side of the road.
Percy sat there, his eyes bulging and knuckles white from clutching the steering wheel so hard. All he could make out was that a big, black blur jumped on his truck and disappeared in a flash.
He just remembered something. "OH, NO! GRUFF!" Percy jumped out of the truck and saw Migo off his platform, lying on the wet ground tied up in his tarp. Migo staggered up to his feet and got the tarp of off him.
Migo was okay, but what was that thing that crashed into Percy's vehicle?!
Percy's truck was completely destroyed. "What the heck just happened?!"
"Hey, buddy!" A voice called out.
Percy and Migo saw a woman drive toward them on a shiny red scooter. She pulled over and took off her helmet. She had platinum blonde hair in a pixie cut and warm brown eyes. Her choice of clothing were blue jean overalls over a yellow turtleneck and green rain boots caked with mud.
"Holy cyanide! What happened here?!" the woman exclaimed. "Huh?" She looked up at Migo, then at Percy. "Wait a minute! You're Percy Patterson! The guy who discovered the Yetis!" She took Percy's hand and shook it vigorously. "It's an honor!" She waved at Migo. "And this is Gruff! How's is going, big guy?! Huge fan!"
"Um, w-who-who are you?" asked Percy.
"Oh! Sorry about the late introduction! I'm Harriet. Groundskeeper for Miss Grimwood's Finishing School for Girls." She walked over to the demolished pickup. She let out a low whistle. "So, what exactly happened here?"
"I don't know! Something dropped down on the hood and just disappeared!" Percy said. "Now we're going to miss our flight and there's not a hotel in sight!"
"Don't worry, Percy. I'm good with a wrench. I'll fix this crate up. Meanwhile, my boss Miss Grimwood will take care of you." She lead Percy and Migo down the road to her workplace.
Percy gasped when he saw the school. It was a run down, gothic nightmare that stood behind a gate with snarling gargoyle statues that seemed to be eyeing Percy.
"Here we are! Home sweet home!" Harriet smiled proudly.
"Home?!" Percy couldn't believe this woman lived in such a spooky looking place. Or the fact that this spooky looking place was a finishing school! The gates seemed to open by themselves and Percy's shock grew when he saw a moat around the school.
"Why is there a moat?!" Percy asked Harriet.
Harriet looked at Percy like he asked a stupid question. "Why not?"
A drawbridge lowered down and Harriet stepped forward. She looked back and saw Percy and Migo standing still. "Hey, what's wrong? Let's go before you guys catch cold!"
Percy had a bad feeling about this. But he had to get out of this rain. He and Migo crossed the drawbridge. Once they got to the other side, the bridge was pulled back up.
