Chapter 2: The Footprint
The following morning as dawn was starting her ascend over the sleepy small mountain town that the boys had got up so fast, which they were running out as they were throwing their clothes on out of the door to find any evidence on what was stalking them last night. At the campsite, that they had came across a scene of disarray, which it looks like someone had gone through their stuff to throw it around the area.
"Dude, what the fuck had happened here?" Dovahkiin asks, as he was walking over to his spot to see his stuff lying on the ground everywhere.
"Man, someone had trashed our shit overnight." Stan said, while he was sitting there busy with picking his stuff up from after being tossed like a toy, if a child has a fit when they do not get their way on the ground.
"Hey, you guys, come over here now." Token screamed that alerted all of them to his area, only to find a large human like footprint imprinted in the dirt.
"Dude, what the hell was it?" Kyle added, as he was staring down at the ground just as the other boys are doing at that moment.
"Oh, hamburgers, fellas, we have another monster running around town right now." Butters replied in a great panic when he had seen the print within the ground. That is when they all noticed Cartman standing next to them.
"Waz up, you assholes, and what did I have missed last night that I was enjoying the comfort of my bed." Cartman teased them about his warm bed.
"Cartman, what the fuck, are you doing here?" Kyle questioned, while still remembering about Cartman's blowout from last night.
Meanwhile at South Park City Hall inside the private conference room, that a city-planning meeting is under way to discuss about building an indoor yearlong farmers market with Randy Marsh is leading the charge that someone is not there.
"Where is the mayor at, Johnson?" Randy asks when he looks at the mayor's right-handed man, Johnson, who was sitting looking at papers right now.
"Marsh, she did not call or show up at all that I still wonder that she does have a little hatred for you over what you had done to BarBrady." Johnson explained about the mayor's no show with a little white lie to covered her last night romantic tryst with BarBrady up.
"Should we give BarBrady a call?" Freddie added. "Shit….We needs to sign off with this project." Randy panicked that is when Mayor McDaniels had came walking into there in a good mood and wearing a pair of sunglasses.
"Deb, Freddie and Johnson…What we have on today's agenda?" McDaniels asks, while still ignoring Randy that he looks super shocked at her bitchy behavior, which Deborah Testaburger just sat there in silence.
"Mayor, are you going to say anything to me at all?" Randy complained that is when she had taken her sunglasses off and places them on the table.
"Can we finish finalizing this project, please?" McDaniels demanded that the tone of her voice was filled with annoyance, a little egged on that her little game of ignoring of him continues to piss him more at that moment. "Just give me the paperwork to sign that I've stuff to do around here!"
"Oh, boy…. This nonstop bickering between those two needs to stop now?" Johnson sighed in a low whisper with disgust that is when Mayor McDaniels had gotten up from her seat, after signing the documents to give the project a go ahead to replace the Whole Foods once stood with a local indoor farmer market. Where a large open yet deep crater had now taken its place, which it had became an eyesore lately.
"Mayor, I see that you're still pissed at me over everything that I'd done for the local PC movement." Randy vented that had made her stopped in her tracks to give him a dark glare, before continuing on to her office.
"Oh, whatever, Marsh that I've no time for this argument again." McDaniels replied in a stone cold tone, as she had stormed off.
Back at Jimbo and Ned's cabin that the two aging war vets were sitting out on the front porch in their rocking chairs cleaning their guns , while the boys were still away at their ruined camping spot.
"Hey, Ned…. Do you sense something in the air with your hunter's sense?" Jimbo said that he could sense something is wrong right now. "Get your gun that we have some boys to protect around here."
"Yeah…" Ned replied, while he was grabbing his hunting rifle from the porch to head out into the woods to see if the boys are okay. A few minutes later, in the clearing where the boys were sitting around to figure shit out on what had happened last night.
"Boys, are you okay?" Jimbo asked when both he and Ned had stepped out of the woods to look around very wary for any disturbance that the boys looking a bit confused back at them.
"Hey, Uncle Jimbo….We had found this strange large footprint in our camp a few seconds ago." Stan explained about their discovery to his uncle, while the boys were showing it to them.
"Ned, go back to the house, get the casting plaster that we are going to cast it." Jimbo said, as he was looking down at the footprint that Ned had quickly raced back up to the house at that moment.
"Dude, I think we have a Bigfoot running around in our town's woods right now." Dovahkiin whispered to himself that he knows what that print is.
"Gee whiz….There's another monster out there somewhere in the woods." Butters nervously said, while he was standing there between Kenny and Dovahkiin wringing his hands together, as they were trembling violently from great fear.
"Jesus Christ, Butters…It is nothing new around here that a monster stalks our town all time." Cartman snapped back at Butters that he looks scared when he had back away from him that alerted Dovahkiin, which he hates seeing Butters getting hurt or scared at all.
"Yo, Cartman….Fucking chill out, man…. Butters is only concerned about us that is all, don't take your assholish mood out on him at all." Dovahkiin defended his first best friend that he had met on his fist day of setting his foot into South Park two years ago.
"Oh, fuck you, Douchebag!" Cartman screamed his annoyance out, and gives Dovahkiin the finger at that moment."Back at you too, fat ass." Dovahkiin replied along with his own middle finger.
"Man, I like Dovahkiin even more along with David." Kyle added that he was getting a kick out of this whole matter that a couple of people are finally standing up to Cartman at last.
XXXXXXX
Later on that same night, cut to Stark Pond Park that both Principal Victoria and PC Principal were quietly enjoying their nightly scroll. All sudden in the corner of their eyes that they had noticed something or someone had run across the dirt-walking trail in front of them.
"What was that, Peter?" Victoria asked nervously that PC look around the large area for any signs of movement, which it was dead silent around them right now.
"I don't know, Vicky…..Did you had noticed that there is no other animals out tonight at all." PC said that he was keeps hearing things like heavy limbs breaking close to them that they cannot see anything at all. "Goddamnit, Leslie, if you are back that will be hell to pay!" That is when they had heard a loud angry roar came from the woods.
"We need to get out of here now….It could be a hungry grizzly, or a cougar are out looking for food." Victoria panicked, as she was trying her best to drag him away that she does not know what out there, which they were running out of the park so fast. All sudden a large river rock came flying out of nowhere from the deep woods, which it flew over their heads that had left them in shock yet fear was gripping over their bodies right now.
"Do you see anything in the tree line at all, Vicky?" PC asks, while they both were slowly backing away from the spot, suddenly they had heard a loud whoop call that rattled their bones came from not far from them at that moment. "You're right that we need to get out of here now." Both of them had fled out of the area so fast without looking over their shoulder to see anything is running after them. "Run….Don't stop at all, Vicky!'
"God, something smells so rancid around here?" Victoria questioned about the dreadful smell that had filled the air that was making their eyes watered so bad.
A few minutes later…Cut to the police station inside the main squad room, where all of uniformed officers were standing there chatting among each other's that is when Det. Sgt. Harrison Yates was heading toward his desk from a trip to the bathroom that he was overseeing operation, while BarBrady still recovering from his injury right now. All sudden, his office phone starts to ring at that moment.
"Hello, this is Det. Sgt. Harrison Yates, you're saying there's a big hairy creature is running around our town right now…..Hey, Mitch, come over her now that there are people seeing Bigfoot within our town limits." Yates mocked that Adams had came walking up to him with a big smile on his face.
"What a bigfoot in South Park… Should we tell the mayor about this?" Barkley added that all of the squad members just sat there so quietly.
"No way that she had been on my ass since ever for failing to capture Josh Myers after the whole BarBrady fiasco had gone down." Yates replied that Det. Murphey was seated next at his desk to do his reports looking up at him with a faint smile had formed on his lips, after he had gotten off from the phone . "Someone must be playing a sick prank on us right now."
"Well, Sarge…It is a Friday night that the locals must be drunk by now?" Foley reminded them about the typical Friday night within the town.
"I know that, Foley." Yates said that he looks a bit annoyed at the young dark haired young officer who was standing before him. Not long after all the police had blew that caller off with disbelief of a monster running around the town right now. Across the street, South Park City Hall that most of the city office staff had left for the night or have a drink in Shi Tpa Town. As both Johnson and Freddie were leaving that he had noticed Mayor McDaniels was still there doing her mounting paperwork had piled on her desk since the day of BarBrady's brush with death that she had stepped away from her civil duties to nurse BarBrady back to health, due to feeling guilty for causing that mess for him.
"Hey, mayor….Do you want to join us down at Skeeter's for a drink?" Johnson asks, while he was standing there in the doorway that the mayor stopped writing and looks up at him.
"No thanks guys that I've a lot of stuff to do right now." McDaniels said that she was trying her best to get them out of there that BarBrady was hiding out in the pitch-black back stairwell at that moment. "Have a good night…" Outside in the main upper main stairwell by the elevator that Johnson was on his cell calling Randy.
"Sorry, Rand…We had done our best to get the mayor come down to Skeeter's with us." Johnson spoke on his cell, as both he and Freddie had got on the elevator, after the door had closed that BarBrady had stepped out away from the stairwell to heads into her office, which he was dressed in his civilian clothes.
"My sneaking little devil… Are they gone now, George?" McDaniels said, as she had raced around her desk to hug him tightly that she has a smile on her face.
"Yeah, they're gone." BarBrady replied that his left shoulder still sore, which he had made a funny face from the pain. "Mary, there's something is wrong that I can see it in your eyes right now."
"It is nothing at all, George… It was a bad day." McDaniels reassured BarBrady that she does not want to pulls him into her little war with Marsh that is raging right now.
Back out on Jimbo and Ned's land that the boys had sneaked out of the cabin, while both Jimbo and Ned had gone to bed that they were heading out for a little monster hunting trip in the nearby woods armed with flashlights.
"What the fuck are we doing out here late?" Cartman nervously asked, as the boys were walking toward their former campsite to find the creature who had created mayhem within their camp a night before.
"We are monster hunting, dude!" Stan answered, they were continues to push through the woodsy trail that it was so thick ahead of them, which it is a perfect place to hide for a monster or any creature.
"Goddamnit, Cartman ….Did you fart in my face again?" Kyle protested that he was standing behind Cartman that dreadful foul smell had filled the air once again.
