"Goodnight you frogs!!" Wally yelled as he exited Stumpys Dinner, "cya in the morrow." and with that he hopped away.. but not before tripping on a tin can.

He continued on his way down the forests path playing his accordion when a twig snapped behind him, he stopped in his tracks
"Hello.?" He said as he turned his head toward the noise
Nothing but silence responded
Something scattered behind Wally
He whimpered "what's that?"
He backed away closed to a bush only for a dark figure to arise behind him.
He gasped as he turned around
"No no no no!!" He screamed

The sun arose as it turned to day, it was a peaceful day in Wartwood with the occasional gigantic bugs and monsters.
A snail carrying a wagon came into view, in the wagon was an aged orange frog, a young pink frog, and a small pink pollywog. The wagon came to a stop and the old orange frog turned to the younger ones,
"Alright kids I'm gonna do a little shoppin you watch the cart!"
The pink frog jumped up, clearly very energetic
"You got it Hop Pop, I'll defend this cart with my LIFEEEEE" the pink frog yelled showing off his odd green mouth.
"Sprig, I was talking to Polly." The orange frog says pointing to the one named Polly.
"What?? Polly's a baby" Sprig said confused
"Your a baby!" Polly responded quickly
"Polly's got more responsibility in her little flipper than you have in your entire body." Hop Pop claims.
"Ridiculous! What makes you think I'm irresponsible?!?" Sprig says pointing to himself
"Oh, gee. Let me think." Hop Pop says sarcastically and thought back to yesterday.
"Ok, so yesterday was a bad day"
"Mhm" hop pop said in agreement before grabbing his sack and hopping off the wagon,
"Polly! Make sure sprig stays in the cart," hop pop said before walking into the store and talking to the stores owner "Well, how do you do Mrs. Jonkins?"

Sprig sighed and rested his head on the side of the wagon "wish there was a way to prove I'm not such a goof-up" as Polly watched him with confusion.
Suddenly the frog from the previous night- Wally was his name came screaming out of the woods.
"MONSTER!!" He yelled getting the townsfolk peoples attention
"T-there's a monster in the woods!! I seen it. I seen it!"
"Now, simmer down Wally just tell us what you saw." Mayor Toadstool said
"Oh it was horrifying!" Wally said going over to a fence to pick up a leaf and then he placed it on the ground.
"It had a huge head, a weird stubby bump right in the middle of its face. And long spindly legs!" Wally said distressed as he made a small diorama of the monster.
The townspeople gasped out of shock and horror.
"We better catch this beast before it hurts somebody, because for major toadstool your safety comes first" Major toadstool claims
The townspeople clap and one says
"Well, it's the responsible thing to do"
Sprig and Polly watched from the wagon.

"Polly. I just had a great idea, I'm gonna catch that beast and save the town!!" He says taking a heroic pose but before he could walk away
"Stop right there! Hop Pop said you had to stay in the cart," Polly interrupted him "you know you can't take me!!" Polly said flexing her muscles.
Sprig watches unimpressed before he says
"Ooh ooh polly look, cannddyyyyyy" he says before throwing them to the ground in front of her.
Polly watched in disbelief before she said
"Bribe accepted!" Then proceeded to eat the candy like pac-man.
"Let the monster hunt... begin!" Sprig says hopping into the woods.
Polly's only response was "DONT DIE"

Sprig was exploring the woods with his slingshot ready.. he gasped as he found a human footprint
"Seems like the beast roams these parts.. probably a good place to- AHHHHH"
He yelled as he was pulled up by a rope
The grass behind him shook ferociously
A tall brunette human girl came through the grass- missing one shoe of course. She pants
"Caught ya. Thought u got the best of old Anne, eh?" She pointed her spear at him "well you didn't! Hehe"
Sprig gasped "giant head, spindly limbs, face bumps! THE BEASTT"
Anne came closer to sprig "stop following me."
"I have bad news for you beast. I taste terrible"
"Ew I am not gonna eat you" Anne says sticking her spear in the ground
"Y-you tried to eat Wally" sprig remarks
"I tried to ask 'Wally' for help. He ran off screaming the second he saw me." Anne claims
"That does sound like Wally" sprig says after thinking for a moment.
Suddenly a girl about the same size as Anne came running through the bushes at about 100 miles per hour. She grabbed Anne's shoulders from behind and said "It's coming back"
"What is??" Sprig asked
Anne grabbed her spear and grabbed the other girls arm and darted out of there leaving sprig.
