The Butthead Trio

Chapter 1: How It All Started

It was a nice Saturday morning in the city of Highland. Mr. Tom Anderson was mowing his yard with his fancy new riding mower, Mr. Van Driessen was at home doing Yoga, and Mr. Bradley Buzzcut was at home with a weekend project of doing 10,000 push-ups. It seemed that everyone was being very productive, except for two slackers by the names of Beavis and Butthead.

Beavis and Butthead were both 14 years old, and they were very bizarre teenagers. They lacked in intelligence, and they always ended up in stupid situations. Beavis had puffy blonde hair and brown eyes. His head was huge and looked almost like a peanut. He had a pointed nose and big nostrils. He always seemed to have his head turned at an angle, and people hardly ever saw his face looking straight forward. Beavis wore blue shorts, and he also wore a blue shirt that said, "Metallica." Butthead had brown hair that looked like a Mohawk when he turned to the side. Like Beavis, he had a very large head. Butthead wore red shorts, and he also wore a black shirt that said, "AC-DC".

Beavis and Butthead didn't seem to hang out with anybody else. They were each other's best friends, and they did everything together. They watched TV together, ate together, and slept in the same house (but NOT in the same bed!) They usually hung out at Beavis's house. Beavis's house was a ranch, and it was somewhat of a dump. The grass was in bad need of cutting, and several roof tiles had fallen off. The yellow paint had started chipping off the siding. The wooden Pickett fence that surrounded the yard needed replacing, but Beavis and Butthead were not up to fixing it.

Neither of them seemed to have parents, which made it very easy and convenient for them to get into mischief, such as goofing off in school.

At this moment, Beavis and Butthead were in their cramp living room watching TV on their old 21" 1987 Sony. The TV was years outdated, but it still worked, and it was all Beavis and Butthead had. Occasionally, though, they had to readjust the VHF and UHF antennas since they didn't have cable. Their science teacher, Mr. Van Driessen, had an assignment over the weekend. They were to pick a grass blade from the lawn and watch it only once a day just to see it begin to wither. But even that was too hard for Beavis and Butthead. Right now, they were watching daytime infomercials.

"Eh heh heh heh heh heh," snickered Beavis, who sat on the red couch with his best friend, Butthead. He was snickering for no apparent reason.

"Huh huh huh huh," Butthead chuckled. He sat to the right of Beavis.

The two of them continued to laugh and snicker for seemingly no reason whatsoever. They watched TV as they snickered. Finally, they stopped the snickering for a while and started talking.

"Hey, Beavis…I'm bored," Butthead said.

"Heh heh. Yeah, me too. Heh heh," Beavis said.

"Why don't we like do something?" Butthead said.

"Okay, but what? Heh heh?" Beavis said.

"Uh…why don't we see what Stewart's doing?" Butthead suggested.

"Yeah, okay," Beavis said. The two of them snickered as they got off the couch and left for Stewart's house. Stewart's house was just down the street, and he lived in a well maintained split-level home. Beavis and Butthead knocked on his door. His mother came out.

"Hello, boys," she greeted. Beavis and Butthead chuckled.

"Yeah, uh…we like want to talk to Stewart and stuff," Butthead said.

"Oh, I'm sorry, but Stewart's out with his youth group," his mother said.

"Darn!" Beavis said. Stewart's mother shut the door, and Beavis and Butthead left. They stood in the middle of the street. "Now what are we supposed to do?"

"Uh…let's go buy a magazine," Butthead said.

"No, no, no," Beavis said. "We do that every day! Besides, we don't have any money!"

"Uh…oh yeah. Huh huh huh," Butthead said. "Uh…why don't we like call people and stuff?"

"Oh, yeah, good idea, Butthead," Beavis said. "Heh heh." The two of them walked home to go to their phone. When they arrived, Butthead picked up the black wall phone in their small, rickety kitchen.

"Who should we call?" Butthead asked.

"I don't know. Just press random buttons and see who comes up," Beavis said.

"Uh…okay," Butthead said. Butthead mashed several buttons at once and listened to the phone. It made the beeping sound made by phones when it has reached a phone. The beeping continued for a few moments, until someone answered the phone.

"Hello?" the person asked.

"Hi," Beavis said. "Heh heh."

"Yeah, hi," Butthead said. "Like, who are you?"

"Who is this?" snapped the person on the other line. "Dang teenage kids and their stupid prank calling!" The person slammed down the phone, and Beavis and Butthead snickered hysterically.

"Hey, Butthead, heh, heh, let me try," Beavis said. He dialed another number. Beavis and Butthead waited until the person on the other line answered.

"Hello?" a familiar voice answered.

"Uh oh, it's Mr. Van Driessen!" Beavis said.

"Beavis, Butthead, is that you guys?" Mr. Van Driessen asked.

"Uh…no. He's Butthead, and I'm Beavis. Huh huh," Butthead said.

"Did you guys call me for no particular reason?" Mr. Van Driessen asked.

"Um, heh heh, maybe," Beavis said.

"Now, look, guys, calling people on the phone without wanting to talk to them is not a very nice thing to do. It is rude and can interrupt people when they're in the middle of their daily lives, m'kay?" Mr. Van Driessen said.

"Uh…huh huh, whatever," Butthead said.

"Next time, try not to prank call people from now on, m'kay?" Mr. Van Driessen said. He then hung up.

"He was stupid. Let's try somebody else," Beavis said. He dialed another random number. The boys waited anxiously to see who would answer. Finally, they heard somebody on the other line answer.

"Hello?" the person asked. The person sounded like a boy similar in age to Beavis and Butthead.

"Heh heh, hi," Beavis said. "Who are you?"

"My name's Joey. Who are you?" Joey asked.

"I'm Beavis, and this is my friend, Butthead," Beavis said. "Say hello, Butthead."

"Uh…huh huh huh, hi," Butthead said.

"Are you guys the same Beavis and Butthead from the TV show?" Joey asked excitedly.

"Umm, yeah, sure, I guess so," Beavis said. "Heh heh."

"He said 'show'," Butthead said. The two of them started snickering more.

"So, uh, heh heh, where do you live?" Beavis asked.

"Down in the South!" Joey said.

"The south?" Butthead said. "Are you a hillbilly or something? Huh huh."

"Sort of, I guess," Joey said.

"Whoa! That's cool," Butthead said.

"Hey, heh, do you wanna hang out with us or something? Heh heh," Beavis said.

"Sure, where do you guys live?" Joey asked.

"Highland," Beavis said.

"Okay, I'll see you guys in an hour," Joey said. He hung up.

Beavis and Butthead hung up as well. "That was cool," Butthead said.

"Yeah, I know. Heh heh heh," Beavis said. The two of them continued to snicker, and they walked into the living room to continue watching TV. They were glad that a visitor was going to show up.
