LuluSalesAway 46 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) The Loch Ness Monster and the Dreaded Camping Trip with the San Diego Marlins The Loch Ness Monster has always been somewhat of a loner. With her family dead for 180 million years and her deep disgust for human beings, it had been a long time since she traveled or went on vacation with anyone. Towards the end of Nessie’s first season playing in the VHL for the San Diego Marlins, the General Manger @thadthrasher and Assistant to the General Manager @Spence King told the team that there would be a trip, that there would be bonding, and Nessie would have to go. Nessie hated this idea and dreaded the week ahead of her. What did the management have planned for the team you ask? A camping trip. The San Diego Marlins were going to be spending a whole week together, off grid in the Rocky Mountains in the middle of winter. Nessie liked the idea of seclusion, but then remembering her teammates would be there day and night, she returned to her state of despair. Now Nessie’s hatred for humans may seem harsh, but she felt as if they have always hated her. It was always one extreme or the other when it came to Nessie’s experience with people in the Scottish Highlands; they either called her a fake or tried to stalk, hunt, and put her head on a stake. But because Nessie loved hockey more than anything else in the world, she decided to put up with her teammates, cause no fish species, fellow cryptic, or other creature was as good at playing hockey as human beings (other than plesiosauruses of course). The first day of the trip went just as Nessie had expected in would go, terribly. When the team arrived at the campsite, everyone was excited to see it was located next to a spring, a hot spring. Nessie was unable to go swimming for fear of being boiled and cooked alive. Then when it came time to set up the tents, none were big enough for Nessie, she felt excluded and shammed for her thicc beautiful blubber. Then someone decided to document the first night of the trip with a candied photograph of the group, triggering Nessie as she remembered all those countless stalkers of hers, trying to photograph her in her own home. And to top it all off @Eldredman kept bugging everyone to play D&D with him, which everyone, not just Nessie, thought was super lame. The following four days went just like the first, a lot of activities that excluded Nessie due to her size, her fish like body, and her own stubbornness. But on the fifth day everything changed between Nessie and the rest of the San Diego Marlins. A major snowstorm was approaching on the radar, the food supply was low, and @Justin Burg was missing. Nessie was sent out on the search party to help look for @Justin Burg and because of her absurdly long neck she discovered him laying on top of a frozen pond looking for turtles (the only thing he loves more than hockey). As the team rushed forward to tell him about the snow storm the ice beneath their feet cracked and they plummeted into the Icey waters. Without thinking, Nessie flopped into the lake, rescued her teammates, and decided to catch some fish to replenish the food supply. She then carried her shivering shocked teammates back to camp on her back. Around the campfire that night, the truth came out. Nessie’s teammates told her that they were skeptical of playing hockey with a plesiosaurus, and that they didn’t really think she could make it on their team. But one by one her teammates looked into Nessie’s gigantic buggy eyes and said, “but now, I believe in The Loch Ness Monster”. That was the night that The Loch Ness Monster decided to stop being a loner, and to start being a team player. -------------------------- 659 words, claiming for week ending 21 February Edited March 15, 2021 by LuluSalesAway mediocrepony, Eldredman, NSG and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
