Big was sitting on a nice sandy beach just outside station square. He was snoozing with his pride and joy froggy. Froggy was a friend, an companion. They stuck by one another through thick and fin. But unknown to our favourite giant cat, a storm was coming this way. Storm Alexander was nearing closer and neither was noticing. The storm was so powerful that it began to carry our heroes away, high into the sky. Cheeky storm Alexander sent our heroes far out to a place called sandopolis. They were still asleep when they landed. Big woke up due to the increase in heat and thirst. Froggy was woken up by Big's sudden movement. "Oh boy, where are we?" Big was drawing his eyes to the clear blue sky and the empty sand landscape. The two looked around in confusion. They had no choice but to look around and observe their surroundings. The sand crackled with each footstep, leaving big footprints in the shape of holes. Hours past before they discovered a desolate road. This was a huge relief for our heroes as now at least they have a direction they can go. "Should we turn up or down" Big said as scratched his hairy belly. His companion pointed south, with no idea where this path will truly take them, the two set off into what seemed an endless path.
Froggy sat on Bigs shoulder getting a slimmer of shade from the sun thanks to Bigs long ears. The two were already tired and looking for water. Froggy was clearly not used to this much sun and could barely keep his eyes open. Even with the road, alot of sand was covering the road so it was easy to be left astray. As the sun was setting on this seemingly endless day, our heroes decided to rest for the night. Big had sand all over his furry coat, he had to shake it off in a humorous dance. Anything to cheer himself up from this sad predicament. The two were left with nothing to lay on but a hard rocky surface in the middle of the sandy highway. The night was chilly with the sand constantly getting in their faces. However as Big says "any rest is good rest". The morning stretched along the sky giving our heroes a new day. With two yawns and a stretch, they were off. Both were hungry and desperate for civilisation. An hour into walking the could hear something behind them. At first thought to be hallucinations actually turned out to be a car! They were saved! "Hooray" Big cried. The car was a blue Audi A8. The stood at the side of the road with their thumbs sticking out. Hitch-hiking like they did in the movies. The car made a stop directly in front off them and the car window slid down. The fellow was wearing a sombrero and sunglasses He was roughly in his 40's, very buff, wore a black shirt and had a cigarette in his mouth. He took his lighter and took a quick puff. "Well what are two strangers like you doing in the middle of the desert." Big kept his response simple. I'm Big and this is Froggy, we need a ride". The man took another puff before crushing it out with his hand. Without responding with words or action, Big got into the passenger seat and strapped his seat belt on. The man turned back with a smug look of regret for ever stopping. A pause was followed with fiddle of the peddle and off they went. "Oh thank you thank you, who are you kind mister?" The stranger left him with silence before responding. "Tom Stuart." They left a fast trail of dust as they drifted 110mph on an open highway.
