Chapter 1

Many Meetings and Pizza with Marzipan

Disclaimer: Homestar Runner is totally the creation of the Brothers Chaps. Grong, is my character and just is created for the story.

Grong walked up to Strongbad's house. He looked like a giant lizard. He wore a red shirt and blue jeans that were custom made just for his tail. Anyways Grong walked up onto the porch and rang the doorbell. The familiar face of Strongbad peeked through the screen door. He asked "Who the crap are you?"

.Grong put down his suitcase and said "I am Grong. I lived in a cardboard box with my laptop and would earn money getting bottles and giving them to bubs. He would always say something about a pyramid of them or something like that."

Strongbad looked mad as usual. "Go back to your box Chong or whatever your name was…"

Just then Strongsad walked by. He looked up and saw Strongbad ragging on Grong. "Oh! You're here! Come in, come in."

Strongbad looked at Strongsad, then Grong, then Strongsad again. "Strongsad?"

"Um, well. I was IM-ing Grong on the internet last night and well, I invited him to stay with us."

Strongbad looked really mad. "HEY! WHERE THE CRAP IS MY COMPUTER!"

Strongsad looked down. "If you are wondering about the matters of the computer, I moved your computer desk down next to the trogdor game."

"Hey my lappy, is easy to move, but what about the desk?"

"I got it down, but then Homsar lost his grip and it ran me over. While I was lying there, he said something like 'That sofa turned on you Rhinoceros!'."

Strongbad laughed then said "Now that was something I should see."

The three walked into the house. At that very moment, the leaves were beginning to fall off the trees. Fall had officially begun.

Grong was bundled up for the cold winter as he walked down Main Street. He was just coming back from his job at the local bookstore. Marzipan and Homestar were walking in the opposite direction. Grong looked up and saw them. Marzipan noticed him and said "Hey, I remember you! You were that guy at the bookstore!"

Grong said "Right. I'm going out to lunch."

Marzipan asked "Do you mind if we joined you? I want to learn more about you."

"No not at all, in fact I'd love some company."

Homestar shouted "WOW I love coffee!"

The three walked down the street to the pizza parlor. They got a booth near the window. Homestar was playing the 'space invaders' game that was from experimental film. Grong and Marzipan were talking. "So that's why I never saw you until recently." Marzipan said.

"Right. The people at the cyber café were nice to me so they would let me connect for free."

"Wow."

"Yes I know. In my philosophy there are three kinds of people, those who are kind and care for others; like you" Marzipan blushed. "then there are the people who try to attack others if things don't go their way, like Strongbad and then there are people who are complete idiots, like Homsar."

Marzipan started to laugh.

Grong started up again "Have you ever been to his 'concerts'?"

Marzipan shook her head.

"Well he has some really weird music on, and then the rest of us go around hugging trees. It's quite odd. I think its some kind of a 'new age' religion."

Marzipan laughed really hard.

"I wasn't joking."

Marzipan started to calm down. "I know."

Just then the waitress came back with each of their orders. Grong had a chicken Caesar salad. Marzipan had the same, only without the chicken. Homestar just had a pizza. Homestar finished his quickly and charged it to his credit card, adding 17.20 to his enormous debt.

Homestar went back to his game and Marzipan and Grong resumed their conversation. "You know, I try not to eat meat very often. It gives me bad gas." Grong said.

"I'm a vegetarian so I don't eat meat." said Marzipan.

"Oh that's nice. I can eat it every once and a while, like thanksgiving. For some reason though, if I have it in a salad it doesn't hurt me."

"That's very odd."

Marzipan and Grong continued to talk. Outside the gentle snow began to come down harder. Soon everything would be covered by a white blanket.

Meanwhile at Strongbads house.

Strongbad was laying on the couch in a drunken daze. There were bottles of cold ones strewn about the basement. I've got to get rid of this guy he thought. Suddenly, Strongmad came down, "CHEAT, MISSING!"

Strongbad made an attempt to sit up, but fell back down afterwards. He meant to say:"Strongmad, go ask Strongsad will help you." But it came out more like "Strongmadgoakstornsadhellhepyou"

Strongmad had a look of utter confusion on his face. He walked away.

A while later, Strongbad sobered up. He decided to do a TGS to take his mind off of Grong. It went pretty much like another one but as he was re-reading it, Grong appeared and saved everybody from their demise, then went on a date with cheerleader.

"What the," Strongbad said as he was reading. "What, huh, hey! HOLY FREAKIN CRAP!" He tore the paper to shreds. His voice echoed through the house..
