Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.

Randy and the Pukwudgie

Ken had spoken of the Pukwudgie once before. A nasty little creature that according to American Indian lore labored under a curse! They could not directly attack their prey, so they learned to entice their prey. They used be friendly little harmless creatures but they became upset with both man and the Creator and since then the Pukwudgies had been something avoid, they liked luring people deeper into the forest. Ken had never heard of anyone having a friendly encounter with a Pukwudgie.

Pukwudgies were described as two to three feet tall with features that resembled those of a human but with enlarged noses, fingers and ears while also having smooth, glowing grey skin. They could appear and disappear at will, transform into a porcupine, they could attack and lure people to their deaths, they could use magic, they had poison arrows, they could create fire at will and they could control the souls of the people they had killed.

So, Randy went in search of one while Howard went in search of the Dover Demon. Why? Because the Dover Demon always ran away from witnesses! Howard would be safe! Going after a Pukwudgie was something best left to a Ninja! And so it was that the Ninja did go in search of Pukwudgies.

Deep into the forest he went, as the Ninja of course! He knew not if the Pukwudgie was real or if it was just a myth but according to Ken people had encountered these creatures therefore they must have been real if someone encountered on. And yet there was something Ken said that Randy could not remember. Something about messing with them…

When Randy did see a Pukwudgie it was just as Ken had described it. It was weird looking! It was like something out of the darkest part of the human consciousness. So, there was a Pukwudgie… Now what was he supposed to do?

"Come to us! Come to us!" said the Pukwudgie.

Us? There was only one of them! Unless… There were more of them? But where? It did not matter. He was here to mess with the Pukwudgies! Except Ken has said not to mess with the Pukwudgies or they would repay whoever messed with them by playing nesting tricks or following them and causing trouble.

Randy had come to mess with Pukwudgies. What would they do? Follow him back to Norrisville?

That thought only caused Randy's eyes to widen. What if they did follow him back to Norrisville? He and Howard were neighbors now they'd probably follow him to school causing trouble… Theresa! What if they went after her?

No! No! That was not something he would risk. Randy would go back into town. Messing with Pukwidgies was for shoobs.
