Rabk- Part 1


I decided to make a story. No Paragraphs though!

Rabk, Part 1

Beginnings



There was once an odd man named Rabk Doomfish . Rabk was about the average height and weight of a 20 year old. He had ruffled brown hair and always had a confused look stuck on his face. One day, Rabk went for a walk. While walking, he decided to go down to the nearest local coffee shop. When he got in, he found all the customers in two groups. One group was made up of medieval soldiers, and the other half looked as though they had popped right out of the 25th century. Despite this, Rabk kept his mind and went up to the cashier, who was a talking raccoon, who had a name tag which said "MR. Raccoon". Rabk ordered a mocha, but instead, Mr. Raccoon handed him a goblet of wine. As he drank, a boy with glasses and a scar on his forehead peeked into the room, then he and two other kids in black robes came in. Scar-head grabbed the goblet, saying "At last! The professor will be so pleased with our finding of his Goblet of Fire." Another man came in through the manager's office and jumped over the counter. He had a Faddora on and held a whip in his hand. "I don't know about this 'Goblet of Fire' of yours," he said, "but that cup ain't on fire, and it's the Holy Grail." He then used his whip to pull the goblet from the boy with the glasses. "No, you can't take the Goblet!" said the boy, and with that, he pulled a wooden stick out of his pocket, and pointed it towards Fedora-Man. Then he said something which, to Rabk, sounded like 'Poof ' in Latin. A blue light came forth from the stick, shooting straight for the whip guy. The man ducked, and the blob of light hit Mr. Raccoon. The scar boy and his friends jumped on the Fedora man. The medieval dudes and the futuristic men all took sides. Rabk went outside for some fresh air. When he got outside, a bus rolled, on its side, through the parking lot. It stopped on the opposite side of the parking lot, lying on its side. A roar came from inside and the whole ceiling crumpled in and was ripped of the rest of the bus to reveal a green blob of a monster. A lady in high heals ran out from behind the monster and ran away, screaming. The blob roared, lumbering after the damsel, but as he did, a voice came from behind Rabk, saying "Stop, Grendel, you monster of evil. Your days of destruction are over, for I, Beowulf, have come to stop you, for I am Beowulf the great, the brave, the awesome." And with that, Beowulf ran around Rabk, charging towards Grendel with his sword pointed right towards Grendel. Grendel looked over, roared, and charged. Beowulf then jumped up on a car, using it as a ramp and jumped, turning around in the air, landing onto Grendel's back. Grendel, taken by surprise, flailed his arms wildly, trying to grab Beowulf, who raised his sword and cut off Grendel's arm. Grendel roared, grabbing the stub of an arm he had left and retreating sluggishly towards the grocery store. Rabk walked up to Beowulf, standing heroically over the arm. "Hi. Can you tell me where I am and how I get back home?" Beowulf looked at him "This is the fantasy world. Without this world, reality could not exist with all those books ever written." Rabk was unsurprised. He had kind of grasped the fact that this wasn't earth when the raccoon started talking. "Well, I'm from the real world." He said "and how do I get back." Beowulf looked at him, confused. "Oh, you're from the real world?" he asked "Well, forget that life, 'cause there's no going back. Anything that comes here, stays here.
