Episode 3
Monster Hunter

With his head resting on the counter, a chef sat at Tony’s bar with a look of sadness upon his face. The chef was dressed like any ordinary seemed rather depressed.  He sighed rather loudly and rudely that frustrated some of the other customers in the bar. Tony, taking note of the customer’s aggravation rather than the sad depressed chef, decided to talk to the chef before he would freak out any of the other customers with another sigh.

Tony: Hey…Gilbert…what’s wrong? Your nephew was in here but he didn’t nearly look as sad as you do!

James’s uncle, Gilbert, looked up at Tony, who was still busy polishing another beer mug.

Uncle Gilbert: …My’a shop’a just closed’a down’a! Now…I’ll never get to make’a my extra large’a Angel Hair Pasta!

Uncle Gilbert, speaking in an English Italian voice, also sounded very saddened by the closing of his bakery.

Tony: Ah geez…and your nephew didn’t get the gig because they closed down the musical hall…it’s a real shame…

Leaving Uncle Gilbert be, Tony went about his business and helped his customers in the bar. Racing by Tony’s bar, James huffed and wheezed as he stopped in front of the bar to catch his breath.  Turning his head, he found Uncle Gilbert inside the bar, looking not like his cheerful self. James burst into the bar, gripping onto his stone arm.

James: Uncle Gilbert! …I think I have a problem…

The other customers glanced over at James. Everyone began to mutter to themselves by James’s appearance.

Tony: Geez…what happened to your arm, James?

James: Well….I was playing my guitar in the woods when all of a sudden…there was this girl who got trapped by a giant meteorite that fell from the sky! I reached in with this arm and pulled her out. I think that meteorite made it so that I can transform my arm! …I know it sounds crazy…but look! I’ll prove it to you! Hand me that water!

James grabs a glass of water and pours it onto his hand, allowing it to transform back into the water form.

Tony: This is…certainly unbelievable. I mean…a meteorite? What’s next? People howling in the moonlight?

At that very same moment, everyone in the bar heard howling. Tony looked around scared as if he had just jinxed everyone in the bar. With a sudden burst of shattering glass, a human-sized Werewolf creature growled at all of those within the bar. No one moved…and then…chaos! Everyone screamed and ran for the door. Being the closest to the creature, Uncle Gilbert fell from his stool and quickly crawled from the creature. The creature slowly stalked it’s pray until it felt something wrap around its legs. James looked as shocked as the creature as he had used his aqua arm to wrap around the creatures legs. Pulling his arm back, James tripped the creature on to its back. Uncle Gilbert quickly got to his feet and exited the bar. Suddenly, one of the many tables found throughout the bar is thrown at James, causing him to fly out the window and land onto the pavement. The wild monster picked up another table and aimed it for Tony. Fortunately, Tony was able to make it into the back section of the bar before sharing the same fate as James. The werewolf proceeded to chase after Tony.  In the back of the room Tony raced over to the emergency exit and tried to force it open. For whatever reason, the door to the room would not open and Tony turned to see the creature emerge in the room. He then glanced over at the electrical box and noticed that the wiring was disconnected. He nervously fumbled with the wires as he tried to connect them only to be pinned to the ground by the Werewolf. Tony screamed as the creature scratched his chest. Not allowing another painful experience, James uppercut the creature in the face with his hand, now transformed back into stone due to hitting the pavement. The creature rose to its feet, making James feel rather insignificant as to how tall the creature was. Not willing to show fear, James thrusts his hand to strike the creature. Unfortunately, this time, the creature anticipated the attack and dodged it, allowing James to thrust his hand into the electric power generator. James felt the electricity run through his arm as it began to transform. Pulling his arm away from the generator, James starred at his electrified arm, crackling loudly. James quickly turned his attention away from his arm and quickly rolled out of the way. The creature smacked its body against the emergency exit instead of hitting James and caused the door to fall off its hinges. Shaking its head, the creature race toward James. James fell backwards as he held up his hand to brace the impact of having the creature pounce on top of him. But instead of feeling his back pinned to the floor, James watched as his electrified hand that he held in front of him, electrified the creature, paralyzing it. James watched as his arm continued to strangle and shock the creature. His arm looked much like his water arm, being extended out like a rubber ban only it was in the form of electricity. James lowered his arm and watched as the creature fell to the ground lifeless. James sighed in relief, finally free from facing such a horrid creature. Tony quickly crawled as knees and wrapped his arms around James’s legs.

Tony:  James! Oh James! Thank you! Thank you so much! You…you saved my life! How can I ever repay you!?

James:  Tell you what…you give me 2 thousand dollars…and we can call it even…

Tony: Oh!? Well…uh…can’t it be…a thousand?

James: Ok…but if something like this happens again…don’t expect me to come and save you now…

Tony: Ok! OK! Two thousand dollars! You drive a hard bargain…

Tony quickly wrote out a check and handed it to James. James nodded his head and the two exited the building.

Uncle Gilbert: JAMES! James! Oh thank’a goodness your’a still alive’a! What was’a that thing’a?

James: …To me…it looked like a Werewolf…

Uncle Gilbert: But…those things’a are only in fairy tales’a!

James: And so should having the powers of Earth, Water, Fire and Thunder. Don’t you see Uncle Gilbert. This! This is a sign! A calling for me to do something great with my life! The meteorite…the powers…the monster….

Uncle Gilbert: This’a is happening to’a fast’a…hey…what’s that?

Grabbing the check from James’s hand, Uncle Gilbert slapped the check across James’s face, feeling disappointed.

Uncle Gilbert: James! Did'a you ask'a for money from Tony in'a exchange for helping him?

James: Of course! I could have died in their too! I mean…we need the money right? Besides…I’m thinking of using this money for something…something that will help earn us the money we need and fast.

Uncle Gilbert: A new business? But…what about your dreams about being a guitarist?

James: It was hopeless from the minute I picked up that guitar that I wouldn't be a rock star. Besides...dreams isn't always the reality of life...money is.  And so is this arm! Its a chance to make a difference in our life and make our lives
easier….from this day forward…I’ll be…a Monster Hunter!

Uncle Gilbert: …But what'a makes you'a think there are more monsters out there?

A loud howl is heard in the midnight air as James and Uncle Gilbert stopped their conversation to listen.

James: …What makes you think there aren’t? Spread the word for me Uncle! James the monster hunter is for hire!

Uncle Gilbert: James! Wait'a! Don’t be reckless! I know things are bad but…

James rushes does not listen to his uncle as he quickly races off to fight the other Werewolf. Uncle Gilbert lowered his hand glanced at the check written for James.
Uncle Gilbert shook his head, disappointed at James’s decision…

Uncle Gilbert: …Oh James…if only you’d come to'a realize that money isn’t everything in life'a…

Uncle Gilbert glanced up into the night sky and shed a small tear.

Uncle Gilbert: Oh brother…what'a am I to do'a with your son?

Uncle Gilbert slowly lowered his head from the sky as he began to walk away saddened by James’s motivation…

One Year Later…

With dazzling special effects, credits zipping chaotically across the screen and epic music playing in the background, Modesto, California’s so-called “Number 1 News station”, KBSV TV 32, started promptly at 7:00 AM. A man, who was obviously wearing a wig to disguise his bald head, fixed his red tie, tucking it underneath his dark blue suit. The men working behind the camera counted down for the news anchor to speak. 5…4…3…2…1…

Jack: Good morning, I’m Jack Hammer…

Tess: And I’m Tess Steckle…

Jack: And welcome to Good Day, Modesto. Our top stories for the morning, Lindsey Lohan has been found after relatives stated that she had been kidnapped. Turned out, she was just sleeping out at the nearby Happy Burger and was stealing their food. She was finally caught when she no longer could fit through the door frame...

Tess: Also, Former President Hathaway has appointed General W.R. Monger as the new President of the United States. This decision comes months after the President “accidently” fired nuclear missiles that would later be destroyed in mid-flight. We’ve actually have the new President with us and we shall be conducting an interview...

Jack:  But first, it’s been exactly one year since Modesto’s own beloved, Susan Murphy also known as Ginormica, has saved the world from misguided and mutated creatures from all over the world. The world over knows her name and always appreciates the generous amount of kindness she portrays. To help celebrate the one year anniversary, Good Day Modesto has put together a very special report on Miss Murphy with our very own special reporter, Andy Faggot…I
mean, Flagot! Flagot…I’m sorry about that Ira. Hahahaha…

Andy: That’s ok, Jack, I get that a lot. Modesto…viewers of the world…I bring you an in-depth look of Modesto’s beloved Susan Murphy. A woman who grew to great potential and eventually the status of a true heroine…

The camera changes scenes to when Ginormica used the giant alien robots arms to knock the creature over into the water and disable its head from the rest of its body. Ginormica gazed over the edge of the once beautiful Golden Gate Bridge and watched as the robot sank to the bottom of the sea. Ginormica looked over to the other side of the bridge and heard the faint cries and cheers of the people. She blushed and waved to them.

Andy: This is footage of Ginormica’s first good deeds caught on tape. It would also be the first time people would call her “America’s Beauty Giant”. She had just stopped an alien robot from outer space that seemed to be sent down here by aliens for some unknown purpose. But before her heroic deeds as an alien buster and monster negotiator, Ginormica was once the happy-go-lucky girl of Modesto…looking forward to her wedding day.

The film changes scenes to when Susan and Derek were about to get married.

Andy: Here we see beautiful Susan Murphy about to get married to once Good-Day’s own weatherman, Derek Dietl.  Of course, moments earlier, dear Susan Murphy had been struck by a meteorite. And due to the meteorite, Susan Murphy grew in enormous size, growing 49 ft. and 11 inches. But, due to the laws that were given back 50 years ago about certain entities, aka, monsters, existing in our normal day-to-day lifestyles, the government thought it would be best to hold Susan Murphy prisoner against her will and have to change her name to Ginormica. Soon, the aliens would invade, and President Hathaway issued that the monsters be released and attack the aliens. Soon, after the monsters would, in fact, be able to subdue the alien invasion and save the world from complete annihilation. Thereafter, Susan Murphy and her monster friends continue to travel the world, helping everyone they meet. And though not everyone excepts the monsters, they are most certainly heroes…

The film changes back to Andy, who stood their smiling after he finished speaking about Susan.

Jack: Well Andy we certainly appreciate your report on Miss Murphy. Moving on now we have the President with us today who is going to tell us about …hold on… well it seems that we’re just in time to show you this breaking news. As it turns out, Ginormica and her monster friends are in Moscow Russia now, trying to put a stop to the giant spider creature…we take you live now to Tuscany, Italy. Please be advice…this may get graphic…
