Based upon a true story.
Charlie's head darted to the side as she heard what sounded like a helicopter lowering in front of the garage. She flinched as the wooden door burst open and two masked figures entered.
"Charlotte Watson? We're here to vacate you from the premises." A masked man said through a deep, booming voice changer. "We believe there may be an attempt to kidnap you."
"Y-You stay away from me..who even are you?!" Charlie backed up and raised a wrench. "Who's trying to kidnap me because it looks like you are!"
"Miss, put the weapon d-"
"I'M NOT PUTTING IT DOWN UNTIL YOU ANSWER ME."
"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR ANSWERS NOW, MISS. GET IN THE SHIP."
"SHIP?!?!"
"YES, COME OUTSIDE WITH US." The voice changer crackled as his voice continued to raise. The shorter of the two figures hit the man on the shoulder.
"Shh! Dude, you're scaring the shit outta her! I told you we didn't need masks!" Winter removed her mask and looked at Charlie. "Miss Watson, we'll explain everything, honest, but we don't have a lot of time."
"Do better." Charlie trembled fearfully.
"You may not like it."
"Try me."
Winter sighed and cursed under her breath.
"An intergalactic humanoid frog is out to kidnap you because you are a person of interest among his group. Their purpose for you is unknown but…" Winter's eyes went to the floor and she shrugged. "I, uh, have my theories."
Charlie stared at her.
"An…an intergalactic frog…?" She gave a less-than-genuine smile. "Oh, I understand. Alright. Yeah, I'll go with you in your space ship. Sounds great."
"Miss," Ben removed his mask. "After everything you've seen I wouldn't expect this to be hard to bel-"
"HEY." A third voice approached and a humanoid raccoon kicked the door open. "Are we doin' this or not? I thought the SIMPS were like two jumps behind us!!!! DRAG the chick to the ship if you have to dammit!!!!!!!!"
Literally the next thing Charlie knew she was on a spaceship breaking the sound barrier to evade Kermit the Frog, an intergalactic warlord and founder of the Clan of Sharlies.
