Ben, baby Otis, Miles, Alexa, Lauren and Penny sat at a table.
Lightning struck as Dag opened the doors of the barn.
He threw a golden necklace across the floor and it slid to Ben. The engraved letters were "BSTSTFRNDS".
"Don't come looking for me." he said.
Penny ran up to him.
"You don't have to do this!" she said.
Dag picked Penny up by the neck and choked her to death.
"No!" shouted Alexa.
The next morning.
Baby Otis finished up chocolate covered cud and Ben let him play with some of the other babies: Jane's son and daughter, Duke and Stamps; a mouse named Pip; a piglet named Pig and a chick named Peck.
"I can't believe Penny is gone." said Alexa.
"I can't believe Dag went to the dark side." said Ben.
Jane, the dog who'd been over at the house, walked in the barn doors.
"There's a new barnyard member in Farmer Buyer's house." she said.
All members but Lauren and Alexa went over to the farmer's house as he wasn't there right now.
The baby's father, a ferret named Arlo walked out the door with the baby in his arms.
"His name's Freddy." he said.
Otis's first day of Kindergarten.
Ben was getting Otis ready for school.
"Daddy, why do I have to be up this early?" asked Otis.
"Bubby, I know you don't like this, but this is what time you have to be up." said Ben.
"Daddy, I wanna go back to sleep." said Otis.
"How's about this." said Ben. "You get ready, you can go back to bed until the bus comes and when the bus comes, you can go back to sleep. Sound fun?"
"Okay, Daddy." said Otis.
So, Otis was ready and he climbed back into bed. He had a propeller hat on with a yellowish backpack.
"Daddy." said Otis.
"Yeah?" asked Ben.
"I love you." said Otis.
"I love you too, Otis." said Ben.
Ben went to his own room and took out a picture of Alexa. Before Otis knew anything about her, she passed away and Lauren left.
"I love you. Otis and I are doing fine as you can see from Heaven. I just really miss you so..." said Ben.
Later that day, at school.
"Well, well, well!" said a bully's voice. "A newcomer! A beef-boy!"
Otis looked over and saw a duck with a backwards hat and a toothpick in his mouth.
