Frank's War
By: Darth Belch
**********************

	Frank, leader of the Sharks stood in the backyard of the arcade. He was looking over at 
 scraps of wood. Ness walked in from the distance.

	"Hey Frank!"

	Frank looked up. "Yo! Ness! What's goin on!"

	Ness shook Frank's hand. It felt rough. "Nothing, just walking around. Your hand is rough. 
 Are you working on something?"

	"Ya, Im tryin to make a Frankystien Mark III."

	"What are you gonna go with it?"

	Frank scratched his head. "Um, I dunno."

	In the distance, a Pogo Punk has hopping around. All of a sudden he got hit in the head 
 with a brick. Ness and Frank ran up to him and Frank picked up the brick. The Pogo Punk was knocked 
 out. There was a note on the brick. They started to walk towards the back of the yard. 

	Ness asked, "Frank what does the note say?"

	The Pogo Punk was starting to get up in the distance. Frank had taken the note into one 
 hand and the brick in the other. He threw the brick without looking where he was throwing it. It 
 ended up hitting the Pogo Punk again. The Pogo Punk threw his pogo stick down.

	Frank read the note:
********
           	"Dear Frank

                       You have caused my gang a very hard life in Threed. Your Sharks have been fighting 
 my Dolphins on our turf. Now its time for me to invade YOUR turf. You will surely pay for this! 
 Since this is a note, and we are not meeting, pretend I am laughing hysterically and evilly right now.
 Expect us here in a week! Well, I would be there tomorrow, but I hurt myself in my Yoga For Newbies 
 class. But thats a different story. We will be there next week! So dont get scared and start to 
 pee in your pants. Remember, last time, I didnt pee in my pants, I spilled, um, coffee on, my pants.
 Um, ya, thats what I did!
						Your Nemesis,
							Benji.
**********

	Ness looked at Frank. "Whats up with that?"

	"Thats my rival Benji. He was always bad at writing threats. Now it seems like his gang 
 is gonna try to take over my turf! It aint gonna happen!" Frank took out a knife and threw it 
 blade first into the pile of wood. The knife stuck into the wood.

	Ness peered at the note. "Is this gang tough?"

	"We have about the same number of people in our gang. Were about on the same level as the 
 Dolphins. We have been fighting for a while now, and no on was able to win any battles because we 
 were so evenly matched. If he is invading us, he...must, have some plan."

	Ness looked at his watch. "Oops. Sorry Frank, but I gotta leave! I think im gonna  go over 
 to Paula's house." Ness and Frank said goodbye and Ness left.

	Frank sat down on a rock, while sharpening one of his knives. He thought to hiself for 
 a while. "Something is definitely wrong here. I mean, he would NEVER move his gang out of his 
territory and into ours. He is too chicken. I must find out whats going on!"

	Frank called over a few of his gang. "Ok, listen up guys. I need a few of you to help me 
find out what is going on in Threed. The Dolphins plan to invade Onett, and overthrow us! This aint 
gonna happen!"

	A few Sharks stood up. An hour later, they left for Threed.
*****************

	It was dark. Barely Frank or the 3 Shark members that joined him 
could see. They snooped around in the shadows of the trees.

	One Yes Man Jr stopped. "Frank, I dont see anything."

	Frank  hit the Yes Man Jr. and said, "Hey you! Shut up. Your not looking hard enough."

	At that moment, a Skate Punk pointed over to the graveyard. There was many figures standing there. 

	The Skate Punk kept pointing. "Hey, um, boss, I, um, think its them!"

	Frank took a closer look. "Ya. Good job. Lets move closer to get a look."

	The group led by Frank sneaked closer to the graveyard. They all stopped.

	Frank walked ahead of the others, and then hit the ground. "Ok guys, stay there. I'm gonna move 
 closer."

	Frank crawled on the ground to get an even closer look. It indeed was the Dolphins. However he saw 
something else. He crawled back to his group. "Hey, who has the binoculars?" 

	A Skate Punk gave him a pair of binoculars. Frank crawled back to his spot. He put the binoculars to 
his face. He saw a group of Dolphins next to an even larger group of  Dolphins. They were surely planning 
an invasion. Frank looked around some more, until he saw Benji, the leader. However, Benji wasnt alone. He 
saw Benji talking to a man with a beard and glasses. Next to the bearded man were 2 men in blue robes on both 
sides of the man. Frank got curious and started looking around that area. 

	Frank then spotted something. It looked like a blue mask, or a blue hood on a tombstone. Before he could 
get a real good look at it, one of the Dolphins notice someone spying. Frank signals everyone that joined him 
to run. While running away, Frank tripped over a brush.
