Angel: Since I update late in the night, I will be updating tomorrow. Thanksgiving will be over by the time I update tomorrow, so it's not gonna affect me to the point where I wouldn't do it. Which is a first, I haven't released something on Thanksgiving ever since my very first story XD But I'm only on episode 80, so I might have to stop at some point. Maybe by next week so that I can finish the last 20 episodes.
Also :OOOO I HAVE OVER 300 PEOPLE FAVORITING ME!
Thank you SO much, you guys :D Virtual pie for all!
A wolf howls as a forest is surrounded by fog, which seems to only further the terror around a cabin. "The cries were coming from inside the house!" Mud is littered with trash and even a soupsicle machine. "The babysitter realized, it was a very cranky baby!" Randy states in a spooky voice, holding a flashlight in front of his face.
"That's it?" Howard asks in disbelief, the last boy in the row of Doug, Bucky, Accordion Dave, and himself. Amy is sitting on a sofa nearby Doug, covered up in a soft blanket.
"The most terrifying thing about it was how not-terrifying it was," Accordion Dave blinks lazily.
"Come on!" Randy exclaims at them. "The baby was supposed to be asleep! But it wasn't! It was a very cranky baby!"
"That story was 'horror-able'! Babies are only scary to new parents. Zing!" Bucky holds up a finger with a small smile.
"Ames?" Randy turns to Amy, who winces slightly.
"Umm, how do I put this in a way that won't hurt your feelings?" She rubs her chin and he sags his shoulders at her.
"You already did..."
"I'm sorry..." She bites her lip anxiously for his reaction.
"It's okay..." He pouts, going over to kiss her forehead. She smiles up at him, glad that he's not too hurt.
"Why is Amy here? Isn't this a sleepover?" Doug calls out, annoying the both of them.
"Sleepovers don't have to be just guys, Doug. Cunningham and I find our own guy time without her," Howard rolls his eyes, crossing his arms. "Even if his story stunk like a fart."
"Oh, okay. Alright," Randy turns around to them, hands on his hips. "You want scary?"
"Yes," Howard answers quickly.
"You're telling me you want scary," The tall boy smirks at him.
"I am," The obese boy slightly narrows his eyes.
"Cause I got the scariest. Story. Ever!" Randy wiggles his fingers with a scary look.
"Why didn't you start with that one?" Doug questions in exasperation, and it almost made Amy wanna throw a shoe at him. She doesn't get as annoyed with him unlike Randy or Howard, but sometimes he could get underneath her skin. She just doesn't say anything since he goes through enough at school.
"I didn't think you could handle it," Randy glances at him, arms crossed. "But you pushed me, okay?" He points at everyone accusingly. "You did this to yourselves."
"Just tell it," Howard tells him, getting more annoyed by the second.
"The Curse of Mudfart!" Randy starts off dramatically, dramatic music playing. Amy glances upwards in confusion, wondering where that came from. Howard covers his mouth.
"Whoa! You can't tell that story! My cousin Sebastian said he went to a sleepover where they told that story, and no one survived!"
"If no one survived, how did your cousin tell you what happened?" Doug rolls his eyes.
"I don't know, Doug!" Howard yells at him. "He was pretty shaken up, I didn't wanna press it."
"What's the story about?" Amy raises a brow curiously, earning shocked gasps from all of them.
"What?!"
"And why the simultaneous 'what'?" She does an impression of all of them on the last word.
"You don't know the story?!" Howard exclaims at her.
"I wasn't born in Norrisville unlike you guys, remember?" She crosses her arms. Out of the little things she doesn't know, this story is one of them since it's a legend. It's not like she could read a book about it, and she's never even heard the name before.
"Well, it's about-"
"Nah, Howard's right, Howard's right," Randy interrupts Bucky before he could finish. "I shouldn't tell it. I shouldn't tell it. But then again..." He grins at Amy, wanting to scare her. He's never scared her before, at least not intentionally, and he kind of wanted to get back at her after she scared him on Halloween. So he puts the flashlight in front of his face. "It all began years ago on a Halloween night just like this."
"The winner of the NHS costume competition was a kid named Jason Meyers." A spotlight waved around until it fell on the boy wearing a game console outfit. He was eating something covered in chocolate until he smiled, realizing that he won. He went over to the stage.
"No one knows what caused it, the bobbing for sauerkraut, the build-your-own bean burrito station, or the chocolate-covered prunes. One thing's for sure." Jason appeared on stage to take his trophy. "When Jason Meyers took his bow, he ripped the wettest..." He let out a loud fart that was heard even without the microphone picking it up. "Juiciest stinker in school history!"
Coach Green timed it with his stopwatch. Then the microphone tilted towards Jason, the fart sound amplified by it. He glanced around in embarrassment.
"It lasted 67 seconds."
After he was done, everyone started laughing at him. Jason ran out of the gym. "Jason Meyers was so embarrassed, he ran to the muddy shores of Lake Larusso where he was swallowed up, never to be heard from again." He sank into Lake Larusso, a look of horror on his face.
"From then on, he was known only as Mudfart." He secretly grins at Amy shaking in her seat. "Legend has it that if you say 'Mudfart' 67 times on Halloween night, Mudfart himself will rise and drag you into his muddy, farty grave! ...Oh, and there's mice there."
"Ahh!" Amy yelps, diving underneath the sofa.
"How many times did you just say it?" Howard asks Randy in fear.
"Uh..." Randy takes a moment to silently count. "Five. Five Mudfarts. Okay, now that's six. That would be six now."
"Ran!" Amy whines from her hiding spot.
"Relax," Randy tries to assure her as he bends down to her level. "I'll protect you. Are you really that scared?"
"Even without the mice thing, it's terrifying," Her eyes widen as she looks a bit pale. Randy helps her up, giving the girl a one-armed hug.
"What if someone else says...Mudfart," Bucky whispers the word, adding it up to 7.
"Does that add to the Mudfart total?" Dave asks cluelessly, and it does, making it 8 now.
"Would you shoobs stop saying it?!" Howard exclaims at them, a palm on his forehead.
"Has anyone ever seen Mudfart?" Dave wonders anyway, which makes a total of 9.
And they keep saying it, now up to 22. "What if you say Mudfart really quiet?" The band boy whispers.
"Just because you say it quieter doesn't mean it doesn't count. So stop saying Mudfart," Amy's eyes widen as she covers her mouth in embarrassment. "Did I really just say his name after telling him not to?"
"What if you say Mudfart really loud?" Doug asks when they're at 37, making it 38.
"Ooh!" Bucky tries to find a loophole when they're at 62. "If you say mud, mud fart, fart, is that the same as saying Mudfart Mudfart?"
"Oh my cheese, YES!" Amy answers in exasperation and Howard gasps as that makes it 66. He covers up the counter.
"Stop saying you-know-who you know-what!" However, he unknowingly makes that 67 times now. "What?! That counts?"
"Eh, the intent was there," Randy explains to him from behind. "That makes 67!"
The clock chimes as it's 9:30 now, gothic music playing. Dave sweats as the curtains go flying, bringing in leaves from outside. The wind from the open window puts out the fire from the fireplace. Howard glances around in fear as the music is coming from a record player. The album is literally titled 'Unsettling Music for Abandoned Cabins.' The four gasp, whimpering as they run away from Amy and Randy. They barricade the doors with various objects. Amy bites her fingernails nervously, glancing out the window to her right.
Randy notices a basketball, an evil grin on his face as he tosses it out the window. The ball bounces off the roof, giving the impression that something is on the roof. The boys stop what they're doing as Randy goes over to them.
"Oh no! What was that?"
The ball lands on the lawn and the five scream, running to hide. The tall boy stands in front of them. "Boom! Scary story! You're welcome."
The only girl furrows her eyebrows, stepping towards the window and seeing the basketball.
"You're mean!" Amy gasps in realization of what he did, glaring at him. He chuckles and kisses her forehead. He then takes off his jacket and gives it to her. She smiles a bit, hugging it to her chest. She didn't know when she got obsessed with it, but she just loves his clothes. They're soft and they smell nice—whenever Howard isn't in proximity to fart. He turns around, heading for the entrance.
"Cunningham! Where are you going?" Howard demands him.
Randy opens the door, stepping past all the objects barricading it. "Outhouse," He holds up a roll of toilet paper.
"Don't go out there," His best friend warns him.
"So you want me to do it in-house?" Randy asks in disbelief with a raised brow. His right hand reaches out and grabs his shoulder, pretending to get grabbed. "Oh no! He's got me!"
The five scream, Amy in fear. Randy pulls himself back and then emerges from the windowsill laughing. "You guys, you guys! It was my hand!" He wiggles his fingers. "I wish you could have seen, but it was all..."
"Stop iiiiit!" Amy whines at him. "That's not funny anymore!"
"But it is!" He continues chuckling, yelping as Amy throws a shoe at him. He ducks his head and peeks upwards, smiling nervously at her. "I'll be back. Stay cold, okay?"
He walks through the forest, still reeling over his prank just now. "Hey, Randy! How bad did you scare those shoobs and Ames? Well, I don't know. Come on, Randy! How bad! Tell us! Well, so bad I have to...tell me about it." He chuckles as he stops and ends up sinking a little. "Some kid gets stuck in the..." He looks down and sees that he's in the same situation as Jason. "Mud!" He tries to pull himself free, but it's too muddy. "Guys? Guys? Guys?"
"That stinking Cunningham," Howard grumbles as he paces around, arms crossed. "I told him not to tell that story."
"Mud! The mud's got me!" Randy shouts from outside, the brunette's eyes widening.
"Now the mud's got him!" Howard yells, gesturing to the window. "The honking story's coming true!"
"Ran?!" Amy runs up to the window. "Ran!" She clutches his jacket to her chest.
"Sounds to me like Mudfart's got Randy!" Doug brags, hands on his hips.
"Zip it, Doug!" Howard looks over his shoulder from the window.
"Just saying, he's probably dead," Doug shrugs casually, irritating the boy further.
"Oh..." Amy cries out in worry.
"DOUG!" The other three shout at him.
"What?" He turns to the only girl and flinches. Amy has her face hiding in Randy's hoodie, holding it tightly as tears stream down her face. Howard facepalms at Doug for this reaction.
Ran's hoodie...he always wears it...but this time he wasn't...
"A-Amy, I-" Doug stammers nervously, he definitely didn't mean to make her cry on purpose.
"Now you've done it, Doug!" Howard screams at him for doing that to his best friend. "You made her cry!"
"Ahh, don't cry, please!" Doug pleads with her, but she doesn't listen.
"It's all my fault!" She cries out, the boys flinching. "Cause he let me hold this!"
"It's not your fault, Amy! He's the one who gave you that hoodie and got himself killed!"
Howard smacks the back of Doug's head.
Bucky plays an ominous tune from his triangle as Dave takes off his hat to spare a moment for Randy's probable death.
"We've got to go out there and save him," Howard informs them.
"Because he's our friend," Bucky adds in softly.
"What? No! I warned him about Mudfart and Mudfart got him! I need to rub it in his face!" Howard grins, rubbing his hands. The other three boys glance at each other, Bucky glaring at him. Howard chuckles and then looks, flinching as he sees Amy's red eyes from the crying, along with an angry look. "...And the...because he's our friend thing."
They suit up with various objects to protect themselves except for Amy because she feels like she doesn't need it. If Mudfart's still out there, she'll make him pay!
"Okay, I know we're all scared, but we have to go out there, for Cunningham," Howard declares to the four. The three shout, charging towards the door like an army. Then they get stuck at the door because of the large helmets over their heads. "Alright, ditch the helmets!" Howard takes his off. "I told you helmets was a dumb idea, Doug."
The mud bubbles and a hand emerges from it seconds later, lightning striking. He gets back onto the grass, moaning and warbling. It's just Randy whining from the mud all over his clothes and skin, though.
"Oh, schnasty! Between my toes and on my arms!" He looks at his non-covered arms since Amy still has his jacket. He falls back into the mud again after tripping.
"I really would rather be in the cabin," Bucky speaks up as Howard leads the way into the forest. "Let's branch off and leave this place. Oh, I do more zings when I'm terrified, zing!"
Howard gives him an annoyed look as Amy is at the rear, still worried for her boyfriend. She clutches onto his jacket like she depends on it. Randy's groans are heard from the distance. Howard throws Doug up in front.
"But you're taking point, Doug. After all, you made Smith cry, and now you gotta pay for it."
Doug gasps as he stops, pointing up ahead. "Look!"
Randy, all muddy, looks like Mudfart to them. "Hey, guys!" His voice is all muffled.
"Mudfart!" Howard clenches a fist. "What'd you do to Cunningham?"
"I am Cunnigham, you idiot!" Randy exclaims at him.
"I think he said he destroyed him and he enjoyed it! And he would do it again!" Doug shouts in fear.
"No!" Amy cries out, hiding her face into his jacket again and crying into it.
"That shoob said that?" Howard points up ahead.
"Uh, yeah," Doug looks away slyly. "He also said you shouldn't be so mean to Doug."
"Yeah, well, he doesn't know what he's talking about," Howard denies that one. "He killed Cunningham! Get him!" The boys charge forward and Randy could only run so that they don't tear him apart. He trips from a branch and rolls down a small ramp.
"What to do?"
He lands in front of someone.
"Ooh, what do we have here?"
He gasps as he looks up to see a blond man looking down at him. The man giggles as he rubs his hands together.
"Who the cheese are you?" Randy asks him slowly.
"Name's Jason," He gestures to himself in greeting. "Jason Meyers." He lets out another creepy giggle.
"Jason..." The mud-covered boy recognizes the name immediately. "M-M-M-Mudfart!"
Jason then reaches out to him...
Howard pants as he leans against a tree, the other three boys bumping into him. Amy slowly walks up to them, not in the mood to run as she's still upset over Randy.
"Why'd you stop?" Bucky looks around in a panic.
"Cause running...is the worst thing...that could ever happen to anyone," Howard wheezes out. "Smith, I don't know how you can do it with soccer."
"Except for what happened to Randy!" Doug chimes in.
"Should've been you, Doug!" Howard points up at him, and then they see a left behind shoe from Randy. Howard picks it up and sniffs it. "This was Cunningham's shoe. And now he's gone. At least he died knowing I was right...Would've been nice to run it in though."
Amy narrows her eyes, slapping the back of his head hard. "Ow!"
"Randy's dead and all you can think about is rubbing it in!" She scolds sadly and he holds out the shoe to her.
"I'm sorry. Here, he would've wanted you to have this..." The other boys are shocked that he actually apologized, probably because Amy is emotional right now.
"Waah," She closes her eyes, a few tears escaping her.
"Let us remember Randy the way he'd want us to. In the safety of our homes!" Bucky states in fear.
"No," Howard has a scary look on his face. "Mudfart has to pay. I want him to suffer. I want revenge!" He shakes his fists into the air.
"That won't bring Randy back!" Doug points out. Amy sniffles into the jacket.
"Shut your wonkin' hole...Doug!" Howard yells, pointing a finger at his face.
"No! No!" Randy screams as Jason raises a cleaver into the air. He then uses it to slice cabbage. "No, you did not make this cocoa from scratch!" Randy waves a hand in disbelief, cuddled in a snuggie while holding a cup of cocoa. "What's your secret?"
"Cabbage," Jason holds out the vegetable.
"Oh, cabbage. I never would have guessed," Randy glances away. After Jason took him back to his trailer, he helped Randy clean up and get warm since he still doesn't have his jacket.
"That's why it's a secret!" He chuckles giddily, rubbing the cabbage. He then snaps out of it. "Mmm, uh, so, where was I? Oh, yes. I've been living in these woods for 20 years," He walks past Randy, who sips his cabbage cocoa. "But the memory of that hoarded laughter still echoes in my mind! Drives me to the brink of insanity!" He slowly takes a bite out of cabbage. "More cabbage? Cocoa?"
"Oh, I shouldn't," Randy insists to him. "Cabbage makes me far—too gassy. Ah!" He cringes at that. "Thought I saved it, but I didn't."
"We know you're in there, Mudfart!" Howard announces from outside. Jason moves away the curtains to look out the window.
"It's them! They've come back to laugh at me!" He exclaims in fear, sliding away.
"Hmm?" Randy looks outside to see the five, and they do not look happy. Amy is still hiding her face into his jacket. He opens up the door and Howard gasps sharply as the four boys cheer happily.
Howard hugs his best friend with a small smile on his face. Randy looks down at him for a few seconds before smiling too.
"Oh, I'm so glad you're alive!" Howard exclaims up at him. Amy sniffles and looks up from the hoodie behind all the boys. Howard then pushes Randy away. "So I could tell you that I was right. Mudfart's real and he killed you!"
Amy's eyes widen at the sight of him.
"Uh, but he's alive!" Doug points out. "Mudfart's not real."
"Doug! You always ruin everything!" Howard screams in anger, taking off his shoe and throwing it at him.
"RAN!"
Amy rushes up to Randy in a hug, and he gasps, seeing the brown hair. Then his eyes soften, knowing how she must've felt. Even though he's taller, he can feel the tears from her eyes.
"I was worried...are you really okay? You're not hurt?" She manages to say through her crying.
"Ames..." He murmurs gently at her. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset."
"You're not injured or anything?" She finally looks up at him and he holds her cheek, wiping a stray tear. "Are you sure you're alright?"
"Yeah," He hugs her as her crying slows down a little.
It's kind of getting difficult to cry...
Howard rolls his eyes at the two, but is kind of relieved that she's happier.
"But guys, Mudfart is real," Randy insists to them, taking off the snuggie. "Well, not Mudfart, but...meet Jason Meyers," He gestures to inside the trailer as the man peeks out, eating a bite out of cabbage.
"Uh, what's up with the raw cabbage?" Amy whispers to her boyfriend.
"I don't know, it's kind of his thing, but you should try his cocoa! The secret ingredient is cabbage!"
She raises a brow at him in confusion. Jason stares at the boys and they stare right back. "Hey, you're not the boys who laughed at me. You're different boys!"
"That's right, Jason," Randy smiles softly at him, putting an arm around him. "And we're not gonna laugh at you."
"I know I won't because you must have helped him," Amy beams slightly. "Thank you, Jason, I was worried sick."
"It was my pleasure," He gives her a subtle wink.
"Oh, hey! Your shoelace is untied," Randy points to the man's feet. "Might wanna take care of that." Jason puts the cabbage in his mouth and bends down, but then he feels gassy.
"Uh-oh!"
He lets out another loud fart like he did 20 years ago. "Uh..." Randy looks down at him as Amy bites her lip nervously. The boys all gasp sharply, mouths wide open.
And once again, it lasted 67 seconds until he's finished. The four boys let out some giggles.
"No, no, no, guys!" Randy exclaims immediately. "Do not laugh at him!"
"Honestly, don't you think he suffered enough last time?" Amy frowns in disapproval. "I mean, he stayed here isolated because of that."
They don't listen as small laughs escape them, Jason whimpering. Randy gestures to him with an annoyed look directed at his friends. "Come on! He's been through enough!" Honestly, it would just kill the man if they end up laughing at him...plus, he did help Randy out.
But the four laugh out loud. "But Mudfart...mudfarted...again!" Howard points at him.
"Children's laughter! No!" Jason cries out in anguish, holding his head. He runs inside his trailer to hide in shame, the boys still laughing.
"You guys..." Amy pinches her nose. "Now look at what you did."
And they just happen to be near a sewer system, where the Sorcerer is disappointed over something.
"Remember when Halloween wasn't so commercial?" He holds up a jack-o-lantern. "It was about fear and terror! Now it's all cheap costumes and TV specials," He puts down the pumpkin and smashes it with his hand.
"No!" Jason's shouts echo into the lair from his home. The Sorcerer sticks his tongue out into the air, an evil grin on his face in realization.
"This just took a turn for the frightful!" He laughs sinisterly as he releases stank into the air, and it flies out of the sewer system. The only two not laughing see it approaching. Looking down, they see it seep through the door between them.
"Uh oh..." Amy murmurs in concern.
"Okay, guys, seriously! Stop!" Randy exclaims at them.
Howard looks up after letting out another laugh. "Why? Is he gonna fart again?"
A green light glows brighter from the trailer and the two look over their shoulders. Something starts hitting the walls and Randy cringes. He takes Amy's hand and they run down the steps. They stop laughing, looking towards the shaking trailer. Then a large monster made of mud breaks off the roof, letting out a huge roar.
"Mudfart!" The four boys shout, and they fart in fear.
"And that's why you should've stopped," Amy deadpans at this. Howard looks up to see the two running off to hide behind a tree. They quickly transform and a cloud of red/pink smoke appears between the boys and Mudfart.
"Smoke bomb!"
"Okay, big fella," Ninja speaks up. "I think that's enough scares for one-"
Mudfart knocks the two into a tree using his arm. "Halloween..." Ninja groans as they fall to the ground in a heap.
"Okay, that hurt..." Kunoichi places a hand on her forehead. Ninja looks up to see Mudfart inching towards the group of boys.
"Ninja rings!" He tosses a bunch of rings but Kunoichi does not. "Ninja ring, ninja ring, ninja ring!" They just fall off from Mudfart's body, not affecting him in the slightest. "This is not working!"
"Because he's made out of mud, Ninja..." Kunoichi mutters to him. Mudfart then reaches out to his back, holding a large mud ball in his hands. He lets out a giddy laugh. The two charge in and he tosses the mud ball as they leap into the air. They immediately get hit, sliding to a stop side-by-side on the ground. Ninja sits up, shaking the mud off him.
"Schnasty!" Kunoichi looks at herself before it thankfully slides off her body. But she will definitely scrub herself clean tonight...
"Look, Mudfart-" Kunoichi elbows her partner. "I mean Jason, you don't have to do this. That fart was 20 years ago."
"But we're laughing at the fart he ripped 20 seconds ago!" Doug calls out from a bush.
"Doug!" The other boys, Ninja, and Kunoichi exclaim at him out of frustration. Howard pulls him back into hiding.
Mudfart lets out a fart, which builds up until he jumps, the two running away. Ninja turns around and throws his chain sickle, pulling backwards, but with the mud the end just goes right through it. Kunoichi yelps as the mud debris falls around them and she leaps backwards several times to avoid it. One mud pile lands on Dave, and then on Bucky.
"That is not touching me again!" Kunoichi exclaims as she stops, but then some lands on her face. "OH! My mouth was open, it's seeping right through my mask! Gross!" She whines, gagging as she wipes herself off. She then tries to spit it out, but it's stuck between her mask and her mouth.
"Focus!" Ninja calls out to her, moving his hands around. She groans and closes her eyes, her hair slowly moving out of the braid. "Muddy battle fighting back, time for ninja earth attack!" Ninja directs his energy to the mud below him.
"This fight might seem black, but now direct the mud back!" Kunoichi opens her eyes, directing a hand to the mud. Ninja summons a bunch of mud balls, using them to hit Mudfart with. A flow of mud appears behind Kunoichi, who directs it at Mudfart to spray it at him. This pushes him backwards and then he stops, absorbing all the mud to make his whole body grow bigger.
"Oh boy," Ninja murmurs at this.
"I thought fighting fire with fire would work," Kunoichi frowns a bit. "Or this case, mud." Mudfart raises a fist to strike Ninja, who backflips and lands next to his partner.
"I'd de-stank you..." His eyes widen as he picks up Kunoichi bridal style. He jumps out of the way as another fist lands where they were standing. "But how do you de-stank a fart?"
He turns to Kunoichi, who has a blank look. "This situation is gross enough and you expect me to know how to de-stank a literal fart?"
They jump again from another fist directed at them, sliding down some mud. "Ninja slice!" Ninja exclaims as he slices a leg. Kunoichi pulls out her fans and then holds them out to slice off the other leg. Mudfart goes falling, attempting to stand up. The two flip behind him. "Ninja mud-buster!"
Mudfart bends down to some mud just as their feet land in his back. "Uhh...it's mud...stuck in the mud," Ninja attempts to pull his foot out. Kunoichi tries to bring up her hair to help them out, but that's stuck in the mud too.
"It's like we're in cement!" She grunts as she continues pulling. Mudfart slowly gets onto his feet, his feet growing back. Ninja punches his hands, but those get stuck as well.
"Oh!" He groans as he looks at himself, Kunoichi wobbling. She lands on the mud face-first, pulling herself up to find that all her limbs are in the mud. "Can't get free!" A mud bomb farts in their faces and Ninja looks like he's about to throw up.
"I feel nauseous," Kunoichi murmurs in disgust. Mudfart tries to pull them off, but his arms aren't long enough to reach them. He steps backwards as the duo continue pulling, only for Mudfart to fall into the lake.
"Oh no," Ninja says as they're heading for the water. All of them scream as they land in the water, slowly sinking...
The boys could only watch as they're all submerged into the water. They wait a few seconds for something, and then scream as two hands pop out of the water. By the colors of black and red, and white and pink, they obviously belong to the Ninja and Kunoichi. Then Mudfart's hand comes in and smacks them away, and then nothing...
"And the Ninja or the Kunoichi were never seen again," Randy finishes as all of that was just a story. The six surround a camp fire on the sand.
"Jeeper," Dave turns to the smiling purple-haired boy. "You spun a terrifying yarn, Randy."
"That one's gonna stink with me. Not getting any sleep tonight. Zing!" Bucky adds in.
"I'll admit, you got me on that one," Amy rubs her arms, slightly shivering. "Even though we're in front of a fire, it still gave me chills."
Randy takes off his jacket and puts it on her, causing the brunette to smile.
"Uh, I have a question!" Doug pipes up. "How'd Mudfart pay the rent? I mean, trailers aren't free unless he was squatting, but surely, there's a law or an ordinance or-"
Everyone else groans, interrupting his questioning. Even Amy looks annoyed, and she's the smartest one in the group.
"Really, Doug?" Howard narrows his eyes at him. "You just ruined Halloween! Hey, if anyone asks who ruined Halloween, tell 'em Doug did!"
Amy's probably assuming the only reason why her friend even invited Doug in the first place was to yell at him. Howard storms off, followed by Dave.
"No, guys, where you going?" Randy calls out in protest. "Everyone doesn't have to leave, it's just Doug." Bucky follows after them, Howard looking over his shoulder.
"It's over, Cunningham."
"Guys! Come back!" Randy shouts, sagging his shoulders.
"Sorry Ran, but once Doug ruins something, it's hard for Howard to go back to it," Amy shrugs at him. "Remember when he ruined tater tots for a whole month? Howard couldn't even look at one, let alone remember the taste after that."
"True...come on, I'll take you to get some fro-yo and then-"
A loud fart interrupts him, causing the two to gasp. "Okay, guys, very funny, but you can't scare me with my own story," Randy looks around for the culprit, despite the fact that everyone else has gone. "There's no such thing as Mudfart." But he said it for the 67th time since he said it a lot in his story, and Mudfart emerges right behind them, causing them to scream.
