ASTERI CITY, MICHIGAN

It was a sunny, early summer evening, the Holidays were starting in 2 weeks and the last lecture at the Asteri City Unversity just ended. A rather short for his age, slightly thick boy left the classroom. Suddenly, a high blonde guy approached him and pushed him, making him fall.

-Hey, fatass, you got the money?-the blonde asked.
-Money?
-You give me 50 bucks every thursday, remember? Your parents are hella rich, and I'm not going to work at some gas station or something if a have such a motherlode here!

The boy just realized. Yes, he indeed was forced to agree to give Billy G, the school bully, 50 bucks every single week. He forgot to take the money today, and it was the third time in a row.

-Hehe, Yeah, Billy, I forgot to take the money today, but I'll give you all the money I forgot to give you before tommorow! All 150 bucks! I promise!- He said stuttering, while being all sweaty already.
-You're not getting away if it today, Lopez!-He said as he grabbed the fat boy by his very short neck he had and started threatening him to scare him.

Hamo Brown, a boy with a surprisingly long neck saw Billy G holding the terrified boy in the air and decided to intervene.

-Now what in the world are you doing to this boy, Billy?- he asked the bully.
-I don't think that's your business, giraffe.- Billy responded, clearly surprised that such a nerd could oppose him.

Hamo was enraged after he heard the insult. Everyone was laughing at his long neck ever since he was a little child. But it wasn't his choice. He was always wondering who his father was, since his mother had a perfectly normal length neck.

-Listen up, G!- Brown said with anger in his voice.- leave this guy alone or face the consequences.
-You think you are a match for me? What are you gonna do? Hit me with your abnormal neck?- He said laughing before throwing Lopez in the corner of the hallway. Billy G was ready for a fight. Lopez quickly escaped towards the exit, but was observing everything. 

Hamo hit Billy, but the only thing he really did was making G hysterically laugh. Billy punched Brown in the stomach, kicked him in the crotch and right-hooked him in the face, almost breaking his nose. Billy laughed at Hamo and left. 

-Are you ok, man?- thick guy that ran to him as fast as he could asked.
-Yeah. Yeah I think so.- Brown said, Lopez helped him up and they left together.

-Ya know?- Lopez said.- you helped me a lot. Maybe you want to play some video games with me?
-What games do you want to play?
-I bought the new Captain Menel game, the gold edition...

Hamo smiled. He didn't know any other Captain Menel fans in person, and he was too broke to buy the new game, even the normal edition.

-I wanted to play this game since it came out. I'm Hamo Brown, by the way, since I should probably introduce myself.
-Carlos Lopez.- Thick boy answered.

They were walking away towards Carlos's house while talking about their beloved franchise. Little did they know. They were being constantly watched by 3 mysterious figures.

-Wallence, tell our boss we found his son.- One of the figures said to a walkie-talkie.
