And now, ladies and gentlemen, we are back with another story from your favorite writer, which is me! It's been a month since I wrote something. This is based on a movie that you probably thought I'd never write about, which is "Onward"! You know, this was the last movie I got to see in the local cinema near where I live before it was temporarily closed due to the coronavirus outbreak. It's scheduled to re-open at the end of July. Are you ready to read? Let's begin!


In New Mushroomton, Ian and Barley Lightfoot are packing things that they are taking with them on their brother time vacation. Barley checks off each item that they're bringing with them on a list.

"Doritos?" Ian asked.

"Check." Barley answered.

"Other snacks?"

"Check."

"Full permission to take Guinevere 2 for a vacation?"

"Checkamondo."

"Map? GPS? Compass? Dragon?"

"Check, check, checkity, check."

"Giant rusty anchor?"

"Anchor, anchor?" Barley gasped. "I didn't pack a giant rusty anchor!"

"HAH! That joke never gets old!" Ian breathes in.

"Oh, really funny, Ian." Barley said sarcastically. "NOT! Okay, let's just get ready for our vacation."

"But where are we going?"

"To Paradise World. That's the best vacationing place in this world. It's got many theme parks, restaurants with food at a cheap price, sunny beaches and even a disco ball."

"WOW! I can hardly wait! And everything there is at a cheap price?"

"Exactly!"

"YEAH!" Ian jumps in the air cheering as if he had gotten sugar rush.

The two elf brothers went out to the driveway and get in Barley's yellow van.

"Bring out, the keys." Barley commanded.

"Got the keys." Ian said as he holds up the keys.

"Now, to the best time we ever ha—" Before Ian could finish his sentence, his mother called to them from the door.

"HOLD IT! I want to go through a few safety rules and restrictions, so the van won't come back a wreck."

This reminded Barley of when he wrecked his previous van in order to prevent Colt Bronco and his fellow officers from chasing them.

"Rule number 1: No fighting over the wheel. Rule number 2: Stay in your seats buckled tightly. Number 3: No arguing. And 4: Absolutely, positively no random button pushing."

"And in case of any unfortunately inevitable disaster, I'm granting you each a communicator to contact me and your mother." Colt Bronco added as he came out the door and gave the boys a walkie talkie.

"Colt, I promise you that all this walkie talkie's gonna do is nothing but collect pocket lint all the time we relax." Ian remarked. "So, you've got nothing to worry about."


Later, Ian and Barley are on the road with Barley at the wheel. "Paradise World, here we come!" Barley shouted proudly. "BOOM BABY, BOOM!"

"Now, which way is Paradise World again?" Ian asked.

"At 70 miles, turn right." The GPS voice commanded.

"Alright. We have 70 miles to go." Barley declared.

Five miles from the van's position, a gang of pixies are at a bar. One of them caught sight of the two elf brothers in their van driving past.

"Dewdrop, it's those two elves that angered us recently!" One of them alerted their leader, Dewdrop.

"They're in a new van! We need to get back at them!" Dewdrop declared and the pixie gang run outside the bar, start up their motorcycles and begin pursuing Ian and Barley.

Ian saw the pixie bike gang approaching in the van's rear side mirror and panicked. "Barley, it's those pixies that chased us while we were on the quest to find the gem we were gonna use to bring Dad back!"

"Let's smoke those elves!" Dewdrop exclaimed.

Barley pressed on the pedal hard, causing the van to go at top speed, but that didn't stop the pixies as the drove their motorcycles faster and started to catch up to the van. After a lengthy chase, they are now on a road in the middle of a desert.

"Suck on THIS, you elves!" Dewdrop yelled as she takes a dagger out of her blade pouch and throws it at the van. The dagger hits the back tire, causing the van to go out of control.

"We've been hit!" Ian screamed.

"I don't want to die!" Barley screamed in a panicky voice. "Please, dear lord, spare me!"

The van swerves off the road and down a hill. Once it reaches the bottom, it flips over a couple times before landing right-side up with a loud CRASH!

The pixie gang looked at the crashed van for a short while.

"Mission accomplished, gang." Dewdrop addressed her gang. "Those two got what they deserve for knocking down our bikes back at the mart. Let's go!" They ride away from the scene.


Bet you didn't expect this first chapter to end with the van crashing, huh? Don't worry about Ian and Barley. They aren't severely injured. The next chapter will feature them being taken to a western town where most of this story's plot will take place.
