Courage, Sheep, Eustace, and Farmer John screamed and ran for the door as Weremole Muriel chased after them. The door was flung open as the foursome ran, but only went a few yards before they crashed into Private Public and a trio of troopers who were running from Weremole General Specific. The group laid in a tangled heap and Sheep and Farmer John immediately recognize Private Public.
"Private Public! Are you and General Specific behind what is going on?" Demanded Farmer John.
"No! We're not behind anything we're running from the general!" Said Private Public.
Weremole General Specific arrived on the scene and let out a roar before he leaped in the air at the down group, but before he could bite anyone, Weremole Muriel leaped into the air and tackled him to the ground. The two Weremoles roared and clawed at each other as they rolled across the ground. Courage and the other quickly scrambled to their feet and Private Public decided to pull out his tranquilizer gun and dart the monsters to knock them out, but when he pulled the trigger nothing happened.
"I could have sworn this thing was fully loaded!" Said Private Public in confusion.
"Our tax dollars at work." Grumbled Eustace.
"We need to head inside and come up with a plan." Said Farmer John.
The little group raced inside closing the door and barricaded it. Private Public pulled out his phone and called The Angry Scientist.
"We have a situation, the general and a civilian have transformed into creatures similar to that one we caught, please tell me you found something about that creature." Said Private Public.
"I did. The creature we have is a weremole and it likes to mainly eat rabbits and humans. It's bite is capable of turning humans into weremoles." Said The Angry Scientist.
"Is there a cure?" Asked Private Public.
"There is. Grab a hair from the weremole that did the biting and feed it to the people who were bitten, that will turn them back to normal." Said The Angry Scientist as he grabbed a dart gun and headed to where the weremole was being kept.
The Angry Scientist arrived at the cell with the carrier only to find the carrier empty with a plate of half eaten flan with a nail file next to it. Someone had helped the weremole escape!
"Ok, slight problem. The weremole escaped with help and I have have no idea where it is. Really makes me angry!" Said The Angry Scientist.
"This is terrible! The weremole could be anywhere! Without there's no cure!" Said Private Public.
"I think I see it outside." Said a solider.
Everyone looked out the window to see the weremole breaking up the fight between Weremole General Specific and Weremole Muriel.
"There...communicating." Said Farmer John.
The weremole then pointed at the house and began giving ordered to the two weremoles.
"I don't like where this is heading." Said Private Public.
The two weremoles charged forward and dove into the ground heading beneath the house.
"They're coming in from below!" Yelled Farmer John before the two monsters burst through the floorboards and began to chase after the humans, sheep, and dog.
Everyone ran around grabbing furniture or other throwable objects to try and keep the monsters at bay. Eustace pulled out a large mallet and swung it at the beasts yelling at them. As all that happened Courage and Sheep snuck out the front door to confront the weremole. Sheep pulled out a bottle labeled 'Wool Grow' and began to rub it on himself as Courage threw some rocks at the weremole striking it and getting the monster's attention. The weremole roared angrily and charged at Courage with it's mouth wide open, but Sheep got in the way as his wool grew out and became extra puffy. Instead of biting Courage the weremole bit Sheep's wool and his teeth became stuck in it. The weremole tried to break free, but couldn't as Courage pulled some hairs off the monster and ran back into the house.
Eustace and the other humans were grouped together as the weremoles charged at them roaring, but Courage leaped onto their backs and tossed some hairs into their mouths. The weremoles swallowed the hairs and made some chocking sounds as they both fell to the ground and began to change back into Muriel and General Specific.
"My...aching head." Groaned Muriel.
"What...happened?" Mumbled General Specific.
Sheep walked in with the weremole still on him and Private Public took Eustace's mallet and gave the monster a whack dislodging it from Sheep and knocking it out, before returning the mallet to Eustace. The troopers looked at Sheep then at Private Public for orders.
"Grab the general and the weremole and return to base. Sheep helped save us, so he gets a pass for now." Said Private Public.
The troopers nodded as they did as they were told. Private Public nodded at Sheep and left the house.
"What all was that about?" Asked Muriel.
"It's a long story." Said Farmer John.
On the way back to the base, Private Public began to wander if there were some dark evil forces at play in Nowhere. The weremole hadn't escaped by itself and Private Public planned to find out who was responsible.
To be continued.
