Spoon Suit Man: Part 1 (Lauren)

In the city of New Spork City, the mysterious hero known as Spoon Suit Man (a.k.a. Sven Spencer) was having nightmares...

Oh Mr. Spencer... said a young lady whom Sven had never met before, Please will you sign my notebook? No, sign mine! Clamored another young lady. I saw him first! screamed another. Soon Sven was surrounded by young ladies clamoring for his autograph. He tried to reach his suit so that he could escape but it was being scribbled on by a bunch of young men. One of the boys snickered as he painted a mustache on the helmet.

"Nooooooooooo!" yelled Sven, and he awoke with a start. At that exact moment, his arch-nemesis the Evil Clementine burst into his room.

"Sven Spencer!" he screamed, "PREPARE TO DIE!"

"I'm ready." sighed Sven.

"Good!" cackled Clementine, "Because - wait, what?"

"I'm ready to die." Sven repeated glumly.

"You're not supposed to be ready to die! You're supposed to be begging for mercy!" Clementine was aghast.

"Have mercy and make it quick."

"I'm really going to kill you!"

Clementine raised his new weapon. It gleamed in the light of the night light.

"I'll show you how to kill a spoon! you-" but his slow-talking mouth never finished the sentence, for at that exact moment Sven's sidekick and cousin Dr. Spork (a.k.a. Ben Spencer) entered the room.

"Hey, Cuz, can I borrow some money?" he asked.

"What for?" Sven inquired sullenly.

"Well, you see - oh, hi Clementine - you see, I want to see the new movie they're playing at the theater."

"Which one?" asked Clementine, curious.

"Just - just a movie," said Ben Spencer, blushing.

"Ben, what are you up to?" asked Sven.

"Nothing!" protested Ben.

"Is this about that girl you told me about?"

"... maybe..."

"A girl? Do tell." said the evil Clementine, perching cross-legged on Sven's bed.

"Fine," sighed Ben, " I met this beautiful girl named Jazmin, and I want to take her to see the new romantic comedy."

"Romantic comedy?" said Clementine incredulously, "hahahaha!"

Sven pushed Clementine off the bed.

"How much do you need, cuz?" he asked, ignoring Clementine's indignant cries.

"Enough for two tickets, and some popcorn... and maybe dinner afterwards, and a taxi ride there and a horse carriage ride back."

"Sorry, Ben, I'm too broke for all of that."

Ben sighed. "Me too."

Then he finally realized that the evil Clementine was in the room...
