Author's Note: I have not played the game Monster Hunter or any other games in the series, but I've done a bit of research on it and I think I have an understanding of it. Plus, I wanted to do a crossover fanfiction with Lazy Town for a while and I figured this was a start. Also, I decided to make the children teenagers in this story, hope that won't be a problem. Please let me know what you think and enjoy!

Chapter 1 ~ Monster Hunting for Beginners -

On one fair Tuesday afternoon, the teens of Lazy Town were all playing and having fun at the town's old playground. Stephanie and Trixie were at the seesaw while Stingy and Ziggy were playing castle with the wooden playset. The only one who wasn't playing with the equipment or with the others was Pixel. He had brought his laptop with him and was focused in on one of his games. Needless to say, he wasn't doing so well on what he was playing.

"Come on! Come on!" Pixel yelled as he started to smash a random key on his keyboard.

The wooden playset was closest to the bench Pixel was sitting on, so Ziggy and Stingy were the first two to notice what Pixel was doing. The boys decided to pause their game and head over to where Pixel was. Trixie and Stephanie noticed that the boys have stopped playing and went along with them after noting that Stingy was signaling them with a nod of his head to follow.

"NNNNOOOOO!" Whatever happened in Pixel's game, it did not end well. He failed to noticed that he was now surrounded by his friends at this time.

"I tell you. Those savage Deviljhos really can screw ya over."

"A what?" Ziggy asked, poking at Pixel's shoulder.

Pixel, still a bit pissed at what had just happened, calmly repeated to the blond boy, "A Deviljho"

"We heard that bit, but what exactly is that?" Trixie asked, getting very curious and slightly interested.

"A Deviljho," Pixel began, regaining control of himself, "Is a monster species from my current favorite game. The savage Deviljhos are basically like the Deathclaws of the series. I can show you guys the game, just one second."

Before anyone can object to what the orange-haired teen, he pulled up and image of his game for everyone to see. The picture he showed, was the Monster Hunters official logo. Everyone was in awe at the sight of it.

"Monster Hunter?" Stingy asked, "What's that game all about?" It was obvious that everyone, except for Pixel, was unfamiliar with the game.

"Monster Hunter is a role-playing, action video game series," Pixel began explaining, he enjoyed educating his friends on different video games, "In it, you play as a hunter and you go on quests to hunt and kill or capture various different monsters in order to protect any villages in the game world. You can obtain equipment for your hunter by either buying it a stores or create them using any items obtained by defeating monsters."

When he had finished, everyone was in amazement by the idea and seemingly simple concept for the game. There was a pause for a moment before Ziggy started to jump up and down with excitement.

"I WANNA GIVE THE GAME A GO! CAN I GIVE IT A GO!? CAN I PLEASE, PIXEL?! HUH, HUH?!"

Pixel was in shock due to Ziggy's yelling (and the fact that the boy was right next to his poor ear). When he had calmed down, he gave a nod.

"Sure. I have a copy at my house that has an extra profile on it. You can sure give it a try. In fact, I'll let everyone give it a try."

The teens cheered as Pixel gave out his offer, Stephaine was interested in the idea as well, but was slightly concerned.

"Pixel," The pink-haired girl began, "I do appreciate the offer. But wouldn't anything get messed up?"

"Don't worry," Pixel assured her, "I completed that game to 100% anyways. So if anything does happen, I won't get too mad. Besides, I got the data saved on my other computers and systems anyways."

With that final statement, the teens started to head over to Pixel's house for a little "hunting lesson".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At Pixel's House ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!" Trixie let out a loud, frustrated yell as she slammed her fist down on the table, right next to the computer.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to warn you about that bit," Pixel told her with a bit of guilt, "Sometimes monsters can be surprising like that."

"Well this sucks," Trixie started to rant while letting Stingy take control of the hunter, "The worse bit is that I didn't get any money nor spoils."

"Well Trixie, as the Price of Lazy Town, I will defeat the monster and get all the spoils and money for myself." Stingy told the dark-haired girl.

"Stingy!"

The boy in yellow let out a yelp and jumped at the call. He placed Piggy right next to the computer and got all settled in the chair and tried to remember the attack functions. Pixel ended up finding a quest that required the capture of a simple monster, A Bullfango he told them. Surprisingly, Stingy was actually doing well with the attacks until the creature ran into him and knocked him out. This ended up making the quest a failure. At this point, everyone ended up getting a turn and none succeed at the challenge.

Pixel felt guilty that they all failed at capturing the monster, since he was the one trying to help them learn how to play.

"Well, I'm sorry everyone," Pixel began, "I thought the Bullfango was gonna be a simple monster to capture. Guess I forgot about how stronger and dangerous they actually are."

"That's alright, Pixel," Stephanie replied, "We all did our best and we all gained from it. At least we know how to handle the monster now. Right guys?"

"Yep!" Ziggy said.

"That is true. But the experience is mine." Stingy said.

"Yep." Trixie huffed, her arms crossed. She was still angry about her defeat.

"Well then, I'm glad you all enjoyed it," Pixel said, feeling a lot better, "Thank you all for giving it a try. I know it may not be your thing, but I enjoy teaching you guys new games."

"No problem!" The other four teens have told him.

"You guys wanna come over and try again tomorrow?" The orange-haired teen asked.

"Absolutely!" Said Ziggy.

"Why not?" Said Stingy.

"It wouldn't hurt if I try it again." Said Stephanie.

"Only if the Bullfangos don't KO my hide." Said Trixie.

"Alright! I can't wait!"

With that, the five teens agreed to play the game again the next day. Stephanie, Trixie, Ziggy, and Stingy all left Pixel's house and went to their own homes for the evening and gave each other all a "good night!" before leaving. Pixel was just so happy that night, he couldn't wait til tomorrow.
