Shrek sees chaotic fairy tale creatures roaming around and playing.

"WHAT...ARE YOU DOING IN MY SWAMP!?" he explodes.

"Alright, get out of here. All of you, move it! Come on, let's go! Hapaya Hapaya!" he tries to make them leave.

Seven refugees go for his house instead.

"Quickly. Come on!" one of them shouted.

"No, no. Not there, not there." Shrek tries to stop them, and he failed.

He is locked out of his house. He looks at the rest of the people, including Donkey.

"Hey don't look at me. I didn't invite them." Donkey replied.

"Oh gosh, no one invited us." Pinocchio followed.

"What?" Shrek angrily approaches Pinocchio.

"We were forced to come here."

"BY WHO!?"

"Lord Farquaad." one of the three little pigs answered.

"He huffed and he puffed, and he signed an eviction notice." he then said.

Shrek sighs in frustration.

"Alright..." he said.

Rather than deal with this problem the friendly way, he instead goes for a quicker, aggressive way.

"But you are still not allowed to stay here. Find some other place." he gives them the hidden last warning while he approaches his beware sign.

"But we can't-" the pig is interrupted.

"GET OUT OF MY DAMN SWAMP NOW!" he finally snaps and takes the sign off to hit a person.

Some of them try to run.

"Where do you think you're going?!" he goes for a fleeing elf.

One of the people inside Shrek's house takes a look at his aggressiveness. Shrek spots them and throws the elf at them.

He keeps attacking the others. A witch tries to sabotage Shrek by flying near him. But she fails. Shrek luckily grips the broom by luck, ejecting the witch. She stands up, and tries to call it. He snaps it in two and throws the pieces at the witch "spear-styled", decapitating her.

"You get what you call." he smiles.

Shrek spots another witch coming at him. He grabs both the witch and her broom, and then throws her to another creature. Using the broom, he  keeps pushing them aggressively until he luckily finds a torch left by the killers that fled. He smiles, thinking of a plan. He then runs to his house to get through one of its openings.

"This is my swamp!" he ignites the torch.

"Either you leave, or be my lunch!" he threatened.

The refugees leave through the door Shrek opened for them.

The panic still continues. He sees Pinocchio and grabs him.

"Wait, wait! Lord Farquaad is my friend!" Pinocchio lied for his life, shown by his lengthening nose.

"Hmph!" Shrek puts the torch closer to Pinocchio.

"No! Please don't hurt me! Please!" the wooden boy pleads.

Shrek pauses for a few seconds before deciding to burn him. Pinocchio screams in pain.

He throws him to his swamp, unintentionally igniting a tent, increasing the panic. Pinocchio is extinguished in one piece, with just some black spots. He is knocked out for the rest of the night.

Feeling he has had enough, he stops hurting people and waits it off. The crowd calms down. Some of them had left.

"You don't want more of this, do you?" he loudly asked.

Some of them answer and nod no.

"Then, stay out!" he scares the crowd.

The remaining people flee his swamp, while Donkey chooses to stay put.

"And you, you're staying with me." he points his finger to Donkey, who is shaken by the chaos.

Shrek lets Donkey in his house, where both of them calm down. They go to the table for a discussion.

"Donkey, you seem good for a steed." he said.

"Wait a second, I really am?" Donkey asked.

"Of course." 

"Really?"

"No." Shrek jokingly replied.

"I'm just messing with ya!" he laughed.

"Oh..." Donkey slowly joins with him in laughing.

"Welp, it's time for the both of us to rest." Shrek leaves the table.

"I better go sleep as well." Donkey finds a nearby bed.
