Yes this is a rewrite to the CGI short of the same name I thought it was good but maybe it could've used a few touches on it I hope you like it

It all starts one afternoon outside the Nowhere farmhouse near the old well, where we find Courage digging a hole beside it, while Madeline was playing with a toy plane running around the area.

Courage as he's digging, discovers a shiny golden locket with a picture of a woman's face who looked like someone out of the nineteenth century, as he then grasps it by the chain to get a better look at it.

Madeline noticing Courage take it out ,stops what she's doing and asks "hey Courage, what's that you got in your hand?"

She was soon in bewilderment at the trinket before her ,she couldn't help but stare in amazement.

"What are you going to do with it?" Asks the four year old, to which Courage answers by getting out of the the hole with a grin on his face, before walking to the farmhouse with Madeline following behind.

Unbeknownst to the two, of a strange looking type of smoke that started to appear from out of the hole.

Inside the living room ,as Eustace was reading the newspaper in his chair, Katy was on her phone on the sofa we find Muriel dusting all the furniture around the house, but she is having trouble reaching a framed picture on top of a cupboard taller than her.

"Eustace would ya mind givin' me a hand?" Asks the elderly woman to her husband, in which he grumpily responds with "I'm busy!" Not once looking from his paper.

Katy lowering the device from her face, says to Eustace still reading his paper "oh for the love of-you know, it wouldn't kill you to get of that chair and at least try!" Placing her device on the small table beside the rocking chair afterwards, then she approaches the cabinet to grab the frame, handing it to her grandmother.

"Thank you darlin'" Muriel says, dusting the picture afterwards and looking at it ,it was a picture of Muriel on her rocking chair with Courage on her lap, Katy with a smile on her face, says "hey that's a pretty cute picture ,that dog must mean allot to you right?" In which Muriel answers "ever since the day I found him."

Then as Muriel places the picture onto the small table beside her chair, we see Courage and Madeline walk in to greet her with a hug.

Gina walking in from upstairs, notices Madeline and Courage as she then asks "well hey, what have you two been up to?"

Madeline afterwards, happily runs to her saying "mommy mommy, look what Courage found look what Courage found!" while tugging her hand.

Gina giggling at her daughters attempts to show her what they found ,joins the family in the living room, where Courage then presents to the ladies in the room the locket he found.

Muriel in admiration over the artifact in Courage's paw , asks "oh well isn't it lovely?", Katy staring at it in surprise exclaims "wow its beautiful!", Gina replies "it's the most incredible piece of jewelry I've ever seen" to which Madeline explains "yep, Courage found it."

Gavin walking into the living room after hearing the bustle, asks "now whats going on in here" Madeline then takes the locket from Courage, to show to her dad asking "look daddy, isn't it pretty?"

Gavin takes the locket from her to get a better look, and just like his family he was marveled at the locket, saying "i-its amazing ,who would want to get rid of something as alluring as this?"

Looking up from his paper, Eustace finally notices the locket in Gavin's hand as he continues to admire it, asking "where did you find it Maddie?" Only for Madeline to reply "I didn't ,Courage did" making the dog blush at this newfound recognition.

Afterwards Eustace getting up from his chair, walks over to the family and says "you found that on my property dog, that means it's mine!" snatching up the necklace form Gavin to take a better look at it.

Looking at it, Eustace at first is confused by it asking "what kind of necklace is this?" Before Katy snatches it from him to get another look ,then opening it up she finds a message inside as well as the date, as she explains "hey this locket's from the eighteen hundreds, I heard museums would pay big money for things like this " much to the family's surprise ,especially Eustace's.

Snatching back the locket, Eustace jumps for joy cheering out "I'm gonna be rich, filthy rich!" Then running to the kitchen he states "I got me a phone call to make" when he does ,the others resume to what they where doing.

All except for Madeline ,Courage and even Katy, who was still thinking about the message in the locked, she still remembered it clearly To my beloved Cariana "there's something's off about that locket ,but what?" Katy wondered.

That night, she, Madeline and Courage went into the attic to investigate more onto the computer ,as it shows them the results explaining The Cariana Love Locket: A Medieval antique, very valuable...But be warned, a curse will befall anyone who removes the necklace.

Listening in, the trio are then presented with a couple that consisted of the same woman whose face was on the locket, and a man shorter than her with crooked teeth, short black hair, a smooth mustache, and all dressed in black as the computer explains It will separate two departed lovers, unless the necklace is returned...The computer afterwards shows a dark storm cloud over what appears to be a set of tombstones being separated by a lightning bolt, causing an earthquake separating them as it continues to say The guilty will be separated from their loved ones ...FOREVER!"

Courage now in fright ,begins to imagine Muriel vanishing before his eyes.

Katy after hearing this, began to worry as Madeline now curious about what she had learned, asks her "Katy, what does separated from loved ones mean?"

Turning to her little sister, she replies "meaning, if we don't get that locket back to where you found, it mom and dad will be taken away from each other forever...Or worse."

Madeline now in worry begins to imagine being separated from her parents and being left alone with Katy, just the very thought of this made her hug Katy out of fear ,as she says "no no no I don't want mommy and daddy to go away forever I don't I don't!"

Suddenly as Katy was comforting her little sister, Courage began to hear a faint noise out in the distance of the field, taking a look outside he finds a large cloud of smoke appear out of nowhere.

Noticing this, the girls out of curiosity join him, only for Katy to instead notice Eustace getting into his truck, before Madeline noticing the giant cloud of smoke approaching the farm points it out for her big sister ,asking "what is that?"

Katy impatiently replies "I don't know ,but I'm not gonna wait around to find out" running out of the attic while Madeline and Courage continue to look on, until they suddenly start so see something big and almost human like crawl out of the smoke.

It was a ghost like person made entirely out of smoke, with a face that almost looked similar to the man seen with the woman who possessed the locket ,crawling toward the farm with thin bony like arms and hands, as it moans out in a creepy fashion "CARIANA!"

This causes both Courage and Madeline to scream in terror, before they run out out of the attic .

Meanwhile outside the front porch, we see Katy as she makes her way to the truck which was conveniently wasn't starting up no matter how Eustace tried.

As she does, Katy's ambition soon turns to fear when she stops to notice the giant smoke creature crawling toward the farm at a fast rate, moaning out "CARIANA!" Her body had now become stiffened by its appearance ,as she continued to stare while it came closer and closer moaning out "CARIANA!" repetitively.

Then the teenager was Later snapped out of her paralyzed fright, when she starts to notice Courage run past her reaching Eustace's truck ,before the approaching smoke creature.

Quickly Courage pulls Eustace out of the truck through the open window, before carrying him back inside just as the face that lead the large cloud of smoke goes right through the vehicle, then Courage picks Katy up from the middle of the field on his way back into the farmhouse ,where Madeline was waiting for them on the porch.

Inside the farmhouse ,just as the three run straight inside ,Katy slams the door shut, while Courage worriedly returns Eustace to his chair much to his anger "you stupid dog, what the heck did you do that for!" Eustace scolded, to which Katy sticks up for the pink dog by angrily replying "hey he saved your life grandpa ,that thing out there almost swallowed you whole!"

Gina walking into the room in concern, asks "what happened, I heard the door slam!" In which Eustace getting up from his chair, bitterly replies "I'll tell ya what happened, your stupid daughters and that lousy dog just ruined me one chance of getting rich that's what happened."

Muriel afterwards, enters from the kitchen only to notice the girls and Courage frightened out of their mind ,as she asks "girls, Courage what's wrong?"

As the girls try to catch their breath, Courage in his usual gibberish tries to warn the family of the danger they're in, as he takes form of the locket with an arrow on the side ,before morphing into the smoke monster, then Katy steps in explaining "there's something out there that's coming toward the farm, and it wants the locket Courage found ,we got to give it back."

Eustace unfortunately with a stern look on his face ,replies "over my dead body!"

Gina walking over to them, says "alright you two ,are you sure you aren't making this up? I'm pretty sure it's just the wind" in which Madeline says "no mommy we're not ,there really is somebody out there that wants to eat us!"

Gina simply rubs young Madeline's hair ,as she chuckles saying "alright honey, mommy will look outside and see what it is" but as she does ,she see's nothing outside beyond the porch but thick fog, in which Muriel looking outside with her afterwards, says "oh my you can barely see anything out there in that fog."

Just then, the groaning of the name "CARIANA!" Was heard again from outside ,as the front door was then burst open by strong wind blowing away both Muriel and Gina into different rooms ,as well as covering the entire room in fog until it was impossible to see anything.

"MURIEL!" Courage cried as he looked around the fog for his beloved mistress ,until he hear's her voice call out to him ,making Courage follow the sound as he happily cheers out "MURIEL!"

But to his fright, it was instead the creature that caused the fog, as it moaned out "CARIANA!" Causing him to scream, while his lower jaw began to run before the rest of his body followed ,then he bumped into what appeared to be Madeline ,who was very glad to know he was ok, hugging him saying "Courage your safe!"

Before long, the terrifying face looms out in front of the two ,frightening Madeline as she hugs the pink dog ,making the poor kid break down and cry as she calls out for her help ,in which someone calls out to her saying "Maddie ,if you can hear me follow the sound of my voice!"

Madeline rubbing the tears out her eyes, proceeds to try and follow the sound of the voice calling out to her ,as she tells the little girl to go to the stairwell , to Madeline's surprise when she and Courage reach the top, the person who had helped them to escape the fog turned out to be Katy.

"KATY!" Cheers Madeline, running up to hug her sister sobbing in relief, as Katy replies "it's alright now little sis ,your safe" before our three remaining survivors hear the moan again ,as Katy now says "but if we don't get that necklace back soon ,we're next."

Madeline curiously enough, then asks "but where is it?" And right then they hear the sound of giggling from their bedroom, Katy says "I think I already know" as the three then head toward their bedroom.

Steeping inside, they find that the giggling came from Eustace who was wearing the necklace ,while observing himself within Katy's mirror.

When he notices the girls and Courage behind him, he turns to face them and in an annoyed tone asks "what?! Cant a man be alone with his jewelry?"

Katy furiously replies "YOUR Jewelry, that thing is trying to break us apart because of it!" referring to the fog monster, in which Eustace comments "who care's ,once I'm rich I can afford an even better house ,and pay someone to get rid of that thing once I sell this baby."

Now in disbelief at what the old man is saying ,Katy approaching him with the others asks "you didn't hear a single thing I said did you?" Only to be abruptly interrupted by the appearance of the fog monster ,who managed to find them as he crawls toward them moaning out "CARIANA!"

All four of them as it approaches scream in fright, before making their way out the window and onto the roof of the house with the creature hovering behind ,when it reaches them ,it once again moans her name "CARIANA!" However refusing to give up the locket ,Eustace stubbornly answers "make me!"

Angered the monster then begins to breath out clouds of fog that then begin to for a tornado around them ,Katy grabbing Madeline into a hug says to her "Maddie, if we get out of this alive I want you to know that despite everything in life, I've always loved having you as a little sister!" In which Madeline sobs onto her chest ,while Eustace angrily calls out to the fog, saying "GET YOUR OWN YOU LOUSY FREAK!"

Courage after he looks at this, says to himself "the things I do for love" then while Eustace was arguing with the fog, Courage snatches the locket from Eustace's palms with ease, then as the girls notice this, Courage was aiming for the face that now appears before them.

Courage throws it at the monster's mouth ,thus easing the monsters anger as its expression turns to love and relief , it then moans in a now calming tone "Cariana" before vanishing ,along with the fog until everyone saw the clear night sky.

Then as it clears ,the girls now seeing the clear sky before them in amazement, before they all see what remained of the fog ,carrying the locket back to the hole that Courage made when he found it.

Now angered ,Eustace glaring at Courage says to him "you stupid dog ,I can't believe you gave away my necklace!" in which Katy lifting Courage into her arms, says "I cant believe you saved us, thanks...Courage" to which Courage was then embraced into a big hug, before the worried Madeline asks "wait, where are mommy, daddy and grandma?"

Just then they hear someone from below, which sounded like Muriel call out "Eustace ,Courage, girls are ya all alright?" When they look down ,they see Muriel ,Gavin and Gina as they wave at them, in which Madeline in joy says "they're OK" before Katy answers back to her beloved grandma" don't worry ,we're alright grandma!"

The next morning ,we find Muriel sitting on her rocking chair out on the porch with Courage on her lap ,looking out at the fields as she says to the dog "oh Courage, I'm just so glad you and the girls are ok ,ya know I think I notice Katy's starting to grow fond of ya" in which Courage comments to himself "now that she mentions it, yeah I think me and the girls are starting to get along just fine."

Gavin walking outside ,notices his mother sitting on the porch ,before he asks her "mom ,have you seen where dad went ,I cont find him anywhere" Muriel simply points to the whole out beside the water fountain .

Inside the hole ,there was Eustace sitting inside, joyfully glancing at the necklace that had been returned, as he says "I'm rich, I'm rich, rich , big money!"

Then appearing beside him was the fog monster in a now smaller form, as it stares romantically at Eustace seductively calling out "Cariana" ,in which Eustace distancing himself from it ,says "get away from me!" All while it approaches him to Eustace's dismay.
