B.O.B., The Missing Link, Susan Murphy and Dr. Cockroach were out driving old betty out in the desert, enjoying the warmth of the sun and wanting to clear their minds for a bit. Of course it was pointless for B.O. B who doesn't have a brain, but he came along just because the other monsters were doing it. They were just about to head back to the base when B.O.B saw something in the sky.

"Hey, what's that up in the sky?" He wondered out loud. Link, Susan and Dr. Cockroach look to see what B.O.B was talking about. There was a strange shadowy bird flying really slow across the sky, looking as if it was injured. Suddenly the bird stopped and fell right towards the ground with a thump. Wondering what it was, Link drove over to where the strange bird landed.

When he stopped the jeep, the monsters went over to the helpless creature that was lying on the ground. They were surprised when saw that the bird was not a bird at all, it was a bat. But they were even more shocked when they saw a wooden stake was stabbed through the poor little creature's wing.

"Do you think it's dead?" B.O.B asked the others. Link, Susan and Dr. Cockroach were just about to wonder the same thing when the bat tried to get up, only to fall right back down, too weak from its injury.

"No, it's just injured." Susan said, she crouched down and picked the little unconscious bat up in her hands.

"Weird" Link said "How did a bat get all the way out here?"

"I have no idea," Dr. Cockroach said "Lost its sense of directions maybe?"

"He must have passed out from the heat." Susan said. Dr. Cockroach went over and felt bat head. Susan was right; the little creature felt like it had been in a toaster oven for a very long time.

"The poor little guy, he must be in a lot of pain." Susan said, feeling sorry for the little creature "Let's take him back to the base and cool him off, then try to get this stake out of his wing."

At that moment, B.O.B, Link, Susan and Dr. Cockroach were back in the jeep, driving all the way back to the base with Susan holding the injured animal in her hands. They had to sneak the bat in without anyone seeing it, because of General Monger's "No Animals Allowed on the base" rule, but of course, the monsters didn't want to leave the poor little bat out here to die. They of course had no idea of what this bat really is.
