It's a sunny day in Neighborville, thankfully, today is peaceful. The birds were singing melodies, decorating the city, no signs of any of the two sides attacking, this day will be a peaceful one, hopefully.

"Yeah, a can of energy drink. Yeah. Juzt a can." A zombie said in a deep voice, tapping on the glass counter of a small juice bar.

He takes the can throw a bunch of pennies on the counter, walking away. Sitting on the nearest chair and taking off his red, football helmet. Wearing a football jersey and cleats, a tall skinny body with pair of gloves too, Bald, big eyes and small maroon red pupils, chugging on an energy drink, the name's All-Star, most known dead football player in Neighborville. Spending time only for himself for now.

All-star is quite sportive but also such troublesome. He would make trouble with other zombies, from as small as messing someone's new haircut to straight-up stealing. Annoying, but that's expected from a physically big zombie.

"Doing matzhes wit plantz r very boring! You loze once n' you head fall on the ground! They cheatin' don' u thang?" Another zombie from far away can be heard.

"Ughh, Yahh! It'z so ztupid"

"Never play wit Plantz. Ever again!"

All-Star can hear a Buckethead, Conehead, and Browncoat gossiping from a few meters away from him, who happens are also customers of the small juice bar, All-Star saw the soccer match they meant, it was yesterday, and he knew the zombies play it sucks, he wouldn't even blame on the plants on that one. He just rolls his eyes away, however, he kept hearing their conversations anyway, because that's the only voice accompanying him on a quiet sunny day.

"Alzo, y'all herd about new people in the team?" The Conehead smiles while gently putting down his bottle of Super Brainz's coke drink.

"Yeah yeah! I heard there is astronoutz!" The Browncoat replied.

"New people? Me not yet hear! tell more!" Buckethead looked at both of them curiously, pulling the chair he sat on closer to Conehead.

All-Star's ears perk up as he hears "New people" Listening to those zombies more carefully, without looking so obvious, he does little finger taps on his can.

"I hear them will be here today!" The Conehead continues his words.

"When?! Where?!" Buckethead replied, getting even more excited

"Not zure.. but should be not far from here!!"

All-Star thinks about it. New people? How would they look like? Will they be stronger? Are they nice?. It might not be shown, be he is also quite hyped to see new recruitments of the Zombie team, maybe this time it'll be easier to attack the plants, or defend from the attacks from the plants. It doesn't take long until All-star stood up and wore his helmet again, leaving the place looking for better sights of the sunny, boring day. But his mind kept on thinking about the new recruitments. He walks around without any exact place where to go with a can of energy drink in his hand, just hoping to see a friend or two that he knows he can talk with. Without knowing he slowly walked to his house, but just halfway to his house something grabs him with his upper arm, all of a sudden he floats up to the sky, surprised, and shrieks in panic. He looks at his arms, bright orange gloves, and got relieved, It's  Super Brainz, the most popular zombie.

Super Brainz is All-Star's best friend, a partner in crimes. They would do a lot of things together, though All-Star's rebellious character and Super Brainz's narcissistic, goofy character look like would clash, they actually go very well together, it surprising. But yet not so surprising because they share half a braincell, they would do stupid things and laugh it off, maybe that's why they are such very good friends. Despite Super Brainz's popularity and reputation, he still keeps himself low and would hug anyone. Super Brainz is a loveable, sweet guy, just a bit too narcissistic but that doesn't make people like him less, he is everyone's favorite hero who just loves himself a bit too much.
