During the 3 Days...
Sam had just arrived back at Mad Town Skate park on the night of the first day, after having to successfully sneak out of his house without his mother's authority. However, this time he had no helmet or protective gear what so ever, his body was nows vulnerable to injuries and easy wipe outs, but Sam Dullard just gave a face of complete carelessness, as if he couldn't care less on what happens to him when he wipes out.
As he stood at the top of the Half pipe with the moon silhouetting his appearance from behind, Sam conducted a few stretches in order to prepare himself for the half pipe, after stretching several times he stopped and was now ready to succeed.
"Now it is time, for Rogue Sam to master the half pipe, and it will be a success tonight." Sam urged with a large note of confidence in his voice as he readied himself to launch down the half pipe, a look of deviousness stretched across his face as he stared at the bottom of the half pipe, even though he could no longer see as good, as he had no glasses in order to clear his vision.
"SAM!" A voice called out as he groaned with annoyance, "You've gotta be kidding!" Sam snapped knowing who it was, as he turned to see Otto, Twister and Reggie racing down leaping over the Mad Town closed gate, while on their skates and were quickly racing down the ramp and into the skate park.
"Curses! They have arrived," he said to himself, but soon realized that they were still not close enough to the half pipe in order to stop him from leaping off the edge and riding down the half pipe anyway. His devious smirk returned as he turned back towards his formal friends.
"Your too late guys, See ya on the other side! Ha ha Ha!" Sam laughed with intense malice as he leaped off the top of the Half pipe much to the others horror, "Sam No!" Twister cried as him and the others saw Sam trying to shred it, despite not doing a good job like he planned, he still had trouble keeping his balance, but his refusal to stop would soon cause an injury.
In a split second Otto realizing that Sam was down for the count, had decided to quickly use this to his advantage and race at fast speed for the half pipe in order to stop him before he could do anymore damaged to himself, he was quickly followed by Reggie and Twister close behind.
Sam snapped out of his short daze, quickly looked up and now realized he had no time left in order to try shred the half pipe a second time, this was mostly due to the interference of his formal friends. Sam then growl angrily, as he quickly got up, grabbed his skateboard, leap off the half pipe and began to race off, hoping to escape his formal friends.
"Sam stop!" Otto yelled, as he chased after with his roller blades, while Twister and Reggie followed closely from behind in their roller blades. "Yo Squid Man! You gotta stop dude! We just wanna talk!" Twister yelled as he had hoped that Sam would hear, only for his words to be erased in Sam's ear drums.
"Why should I?!" Sam called back as he knocked over one of the Mad Town garbage bins, sending it rolling straight for the three, "Watch Out!" Reggie cried as both Twister and Otto ported around the garbage pale in opposIte directions, while Otto jumped over it.
"Sam! You could have womped Us!" Otto yelled out angrily, only for Sam to ignore everything that he had just said.
In a split second Sam steared himself down the Roller Skate bowl as he whirled around the Tunnel on his skat board. "Reg, get to the other side and cut him off! Twist your with me!" Otto ordered as he and twister entered the skate Tunnel, while Reggie launched herself out of the skater bowl, quickly made her way to the other side.
As Sam reached the other side he attempted to escape the bowl only to be blocked by Reggie. "Okay Sam! That's far enough!" Reggie growled beginning to lose her temper, as Sam just glared, he attempted to retreat back down the tunnel only to find and notice otto and Twister blocking his path back through the skate tunnel.
"its over Squid, just hear my man Otto out will ya?!" Twister snapped as he pointed at Otto, as he step forward, only to get a harsh snap from Sam.
"And hear what?! That I'm not good for this group?! That I'm a waste of time for the powerful Otto Rocket! That I can't even hold my balance on the Half Pipe for not even 2 seconds!" Sam screamed back which shocked Twister but not Otto.
"Sam Otto is trying to say he is sorry." Reggie begged placing a hand on Sam's shoulder only for him to swat it away, which made Reggie jump a bit. "Ow!" She grunted as she felt her hand with her other.
"Yeah Right! I thought I was just a four eyed fat kid, with glasses." Sam snapped, as Reggie looked horrified at Sam's sudden voice of Malice, which mimicked Otto's words. Otto himself had felt as if a sharp knife had stabbed his heart, he remembered just when he told Sam that the other day during their argument.
"I don't need any apologize from a stupid Rocket." Sam barked at Reggie, before turning back to Otto and pointing. "You threw me out of the group! And I am staying out of the group. The squid you knew is gone now, and the name is Rogue Sam!" Sam finished off with an even more sterner look on his face.
Otto and Twister look seemingly horrified on what their friend was becoming. "Your not Rogue Sam, your our friend Sam! I didn't really mean what I said back on the Pier-" Otto was cut off by Sam who just held his hand out at him, as if he were saying "Talk to the hand Rocket." In a split second, Sam forced his way passed Reggie knocking her to the ground and racing out of the bowl, leaving Otto horrified.
"Sam why did you do-" Sam was gone before Otto had a chance to finish his sentence, he could dl nothing now but watch in horror, as Twister quickly ran over to help Reggie.
After helping Reggie back to her feet, Otto just stared at the spot where Sam had escaped. "I've completely turned Sammy into a monster." Otto said with horror in his voice.
"Don't worry Otto, we'll get through to him man." Twister said with a look of confidence in his voice. Otto then looked determined and just nodded with agreement before saying, "Alright guys, Sam has lost it, from now on we will watch him every twenty four seven, if he tries anything dangerous we will stop him, if he tries to run, we will box him in. He will hear my apologies even if we have to pin him to the ground, and use a blow horn at him."
Twister just looked at Reggie and both nodded in agreement, as the three conducted their woogie shake.
The very next day after failing to find Sam anywhere in the skate park, or Pier area, Otto, Reggie and Twister had tried to find Sam in his house, but were unable to find the eleven year old computer genius, however on the night of the second day, Otto and Reggie, had managed to find Sam about to shred a large hill heading straight down for the Pier from the Cul-Da-Sac, but his attempt would be shattered when Reggie and Otto stopped him, and he was forced to run once again, with Otto and Reggie, chasing after, but like on the first night, Sam despite his blind vision, was able to escape the siblings by losing them in an alley way.
on the third and final day, Sam attempted to skate through rough traffic including between cars and under tight spaces left on the side walk. This was enough to almost give Reggie, and the rest of his formal friends heart attacks, but fortunately for Sam's safety, Twister had managed to pounce on him and prevent him from heading towards a crossroad.
Despite having Sam finally pinned to the ground, Sam had managed to outsmart Twister by tickling him and forcing him to let go, allowing him to escape his grasp and lose formal his friends once again.
During the three days, Otto, Reggie, and Twister's attempts on trying to talk to Sam had kept failing, as Sam had always had managed to find a way, to either escape or trick his friends into letting him go, before any of them could get a word out. By this time, the weather had become worst, as the Storm was now just a mile out from Ocean Shores.
After stopping Sam a third time from conducting something very dangerous, the gang turned in for the night, Twister automatically went home, while Otto and Reggie raced back towards their house.
Both Otto and Reggie were shown to be exhausted as they were both lying down on the living room sofa, both felt like falling asleep right and not waking up at all the next day, but Otto gathered the energy as best as he can in order to prevent that from happening.
"Wow you kids still weren't able to talk to Sam, it has been over three days already." Raymundo said as he looked at the kids on the sofa with a hint of worry in his voice.
"He doesn't want to hear me out Raymundo." Otto said with an exhausted voice. "Every time we find him and I try to apologize he always runs, and Reggie Twist, and I, always have to chase him, every time we do, he outsmarts us."
"Its true dad," Reggie replied sitting up to look at her father more clearly. "Sam was really scarred by Otto's words two days ago, and if we don't do something soon, Sam might hurt himself." Reggie than added with a hint of worry in her voice.
"You kids get some rest, we'll talk more about this tomorrow." Raymundo started off before finishing "With the weather the way it is now, I'm sure Sam won't try anything tomorrow." Raymundo then said finally to his kids before he helped both his kids to their rooms.
Post 3 Days...
Meanwhile at Sam's residence, things really didn't seem to change in Sam's attitude. He was constantly playing a game of Squid Power in hopes of forgetting each and every time he had failed to conduct such a cool stunt.
The game has changed dramatically over the days, as Otto, Reggie, and Twister were erased from the game, leaving only Super Squid to in habbit the game. However Super Squid's appearance changed as Rogue Power Sam, to conduct all the stunts.
Though Sam was beating the game with no problem, he couldn't get the images of Otto, Reggie and Twister out of his head, even if they weren't in the game.
They were always stopping him no matter what he tried to accomplish in the last three days, finally he stopped playing, and just had to clear his mind.
"I hate friends, I hate.. Hate.. hate... Friends" Sam muttered to himself as he had spent the last three days trying to conduct very dangerous stunts, while at the same time running all the time from Otto, Twister and Reggie, refusing to speak or hear either one of them out.
"Those fools dare to stand in my way of becoming as good as they are, well I won't have it!" Sam snapped pounding his desk only to receive a sharp pain in his wrists. "Ow." He moaned as he shook his hand a bit to relax it.
"3 days on the run, 3 days practicing, and I've never made any progress, I've tried twice on the half pipe once during the shallow storm, but I was stopped by Reggie, than I tried a second time at night only to be stopped by the whole gang!" Sam growled unable to contain the anger within his heart.
He than recalls the second and third days in his head "I even tried to go down the Hill at night during towards the Pier below, I couldn't even do that." Sam snapped with even more force in his voice than the last, as he pounded both his fists against his desk at the same time, only to once again receive a sharp sting of pain in his wrists.
"Ow." He muttered again as he shook both his hands in order to relax them once again. I'm always found by Otto Reggie and Twister!" Sam snapped with even more annoyance than ever before.
He than shut his eyes in order to try and think of another solution in order to prove himself once and for all that he can and will be just as good as Otto and Twister."
All of a sudden, an idea formed in the young genius's head, and his eyes flew open with a look of determination, after his idea had been approved by his brain. "Well never again!" He snapped standing it up."Today I will take my surf board out, and ride the waves, I don't care even if there is a storm coming, I will show Otto and Twister that I can be just as good as them, or better yet, the Rhino."
Sam grabbed his surf board, and yanked the safety strap off of it, and ran out of his room, ignoring his mother's pleas to stay in the house, and out the door ahead towards the beach, without even looking back or stopping one moment to even listen to his very own mother. The sky was now dark, and grey with thunder heard over head, the Storm had come.
