Craig of the creek: From beyond the creek

The D-class Weevil

"it's been two days, why is it taking him so long ?" said Jeremy impatiently while looking from the top of the tower, the sun was setting on the third day since Will said he was going to come back and Jeremy was actually getting nervous, maybe this was Will's way to retalliate for almost drowning him, but it wasn't like him to get revenge "calm down lardex" Rose taunted him, she was sitting in a corner of the tower, polishing her shield "he's probably swimming upstream instead of walking" but just as she spoke the bushes nearby the bridge rustled "there he is ! come on let's go down" Jeremy quickly grabbed Rose's hand and bolted down the stairs, Rose barely had time to grab her shield before getting dragged down the stairs by her rather large friend "no-no-no wait ! ow-ow-ow-OW ! stop !" she yelled as she hit every single step on the way down, but to no avail, before she realized they were already at the bottom of the stairs "sorry, I might have gone a little over board" Jeremy apologized while chuckling "a little ?!" Rose said "I just got carried down a whole flight of stairs against my will ! but no that was just you going a LITTLE overboard, you absolute brute ! you piece of- !" "now-now let's not get 'carried away'" Jeremy chuckled at his own clever pun before getting rammed into the water (not unlike how Will was rammed into the water a couple of days ago) "That's what you get for coming up with some silly pun while I'm mad" scoffed Rose "I could have broken a bone because of your fat-" "OK OK I get it, I'm sorry" apologized Jeremy this time sincerely, Rose crossed her arms, deciding on whether or not to forgive the brute in front of her  "aw come on don't be like that" Rose rolled her eyes "fine, get out of there you big goof"  Rose said with a smile before extending her hand to help Jeremy out of the lake, he grabbed her hand and got out of the water, before shaking himself dry (not unlike how a dog would do so) "alright let's go !" Jeremy shouted before running across the bridge, with Rose right behind him, once they were both past the bridge Jeremy shouted "Will ! are you there ?" he shouted "come on man don't leave me hanging like tha-" but he was cut short when firework was shot at him from behind the bushes he would have gotten hit straight in the chest should have rose not put her shield to block the projectile "welp, that was close, but you didn't have to do that " "why ? because your fragile masculinity can't handle a girl saving your sorry butt ?" Rose taunted proudly "no, because I got this Fossil plate on my chest, it wouldn't have done anything anyway" Jeremy tapped the fossilized shell on his chest "and also... are you OK ? did someone dump you again ? haha" Rose blushed with embarrasment "no ! shut up ! that's none of your business !" before Jeremy could taunt Rose any further, Jack stepped out from behind the bushes, loading another inciendary charge onto his crossbow (a firework that he only uses when ticked off) before aiming it at the deserting duo "well, I thought you two lovebirds would never get off that island" under normal circumstances both of them would have panicked but what Jack said caught them off guard "excuse me ? what did you say ?" asked Rose "you mean me, and her, being a-" Jeremy and Rose looked at each other and then they both began to laugh, and not a tiny laugh either, we're talking a full blown attack of laughter  "you really think I would date HER of all people ?! haha ! please just look at her !" Jeremy spoke in between laughs "she is so pale and thin she looks like a sick stickbug  !" "and why would I date this tub of lard ?! " rose piped in "look at him ! he's more obese than an elephant in an all-you-can-eat buffet ! Ha !" this show of public dis-affection went on for a while until Jack got tired of it "are you two done ?" "no hold on... yeah I got nothing, how about you rose ?" "nope, I think I ran out of synonyms for fat" "come on it's not all fat, I'm just big boned" Rose looked at him accusingly "ok, maybe a little fa-" "will you two can it ?!" Jack interrupted "first you conspire against me and then you expect me  to just wait for your little giggly time !" jack changed the red dart in his crossbow for a gray one "well, looks like you two knuckleheads need to be tought a lesson in loyalty" he spoke in a low threatening voice "oh yeah ? what are you going to do?" taunted Rose but Jack grinned "I was hoping you would ask that" Jack then fired his dart to the floor, it detonated instantly creating a screen of foul smelling smoke "argh ! this smells worse than the toots I rip !" Jeremy exclaimed as he ran outside of the smoke screen with Rose following close behind. Once outside they heard a voice from the inside of the smoke "aw what happened? don't you want to see my brand new toy ?" Jack cackled from the inside of the smoke, but then that cackle turned into a coughing fit "ack ! no wonder it says not to use it indoors ! blegh" then some bushes rustled, then the ground shook and mechanical whirring could be heard Jack's began cackling again, but his voice sounded mechanical, as if it was coming from a really broken speaker, then from the smoke 4 lights shined, one a firery red, another one a watery blue, then one lighting yellow, and a gassy purple "w-what the heck is that ?!" exclaimed a panicked Rose as the mechanical horror stepped out from the smoke
