The monster truck came to a stop, and a man got out. He wore fatigues and had a mustache. He looked prepped for combat, and so did his truck.

"Who are you?" he asked, adjusting his shades.

"I'm Kevin. This is Janet, Courage, Sandy, and Molly."

"Why are you here?"

"We're tourists." Janet said. The three dogs nodded in agreement.

"Did you stop toake a picture of that damn sign?" he asked.

"No, we were reading it." Kevin said.

"Well, you still have your car, so you must've. I'm Burt Gummer." He said extending his hand.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Gummer." Kevin said. Handshakes all around.

"Call me Burt. I had to check up on you. Make sure you went, him." Burt said, looking around.

"Him.who?" Kevin asked.

"Why Rex of course. He's coming here for some stupid thing he's sponsoring. Calling it the 'Great Graboid Hunt'."

"Rex? Oh No!" Courage said to himself.

"And you condone this?" Janet asked.

"Hey, as long as he doesn't kill ElBlanco here, there's nothing I can do. I entered just to keep an eye on this guy. I don't trust him."

"Let me show you guys around." And they were led off.

In town, Burt introduced them to everybody. There was the very friendly Jodi Chang, who owned Chang's market. She had a lot of interesting toys of the towns creatures.

Nancy Sterngood was kind of weird, and always talked of negative chi causing all the strange thing around.

Rosalita Sanchez owns the local ranch. She apparently hates it here due to her losing a few cows every now and then.

Then there was the new guy, Tyler Reed. He bought the Desert Jack's Graboid tours to make a quick buck off ElBLanco.

"This place is weirder than Nowhere." Courage said to Sandy. She nodded.

There was also a pudgy guy in a well pressed suit. He kept mumbling about "That Damn Worm."

"That there, is W.D. Twitchell. He's assigned to protect this here town. ElBLanco is an endangered species, and Perfection is his habitat. He keeps people like Melvin away, who want to make this place a big time metropolis. But we like our way of life." Burt said to the group.

Everyone nodded, all except Courage. He saw a blue viper on the horizon and approaching.

Suddenly it stopped. Burt looked at the device on his wrist, and so did everyone else. ElBlanco was coming!

"Don't move." Burt said to the group. Everyone held their breaths and held still. Burt kept his eyes on his watch-like object.

"All clear." He motioned, relaxing.

Everyone else sighed in relief. The viper approached the town, and two all too familiar figures emerged.

"Hey Burt, ready for some competition?" Rex asked. Dark Sonic laughed.

"I'm keeping my eye on you! I don't care if I win, I just want to keep scum like you out." Burt snapped.

"Now, now. You want to win this as much as anybody. I know." Rex said.

"C'mon Dark Sonic, we got to grub before we Grab a Graboid!" Rex motioned.

"I here Jodi has got some great microwave burritos." Dark Sonic said, as they walked to the market.
