Prologue

Once upon a time, a person named Michael decided to go crab hunting. He was on a beach with a river leading away from society. He heard from someone that many blue crabs were in the river, so he ventured off into the wilderness. When he had gone far into the river, he used his net and caught a small blue crab. After that, 19 blue crabs blocked off the river and chased him out. He had dropped the blue crab and ran for his life.

Chapter 1

The Meetup

Once Michael ran out of the river, he was greeted by his brother, Cameron, and his best friend, Eddie. He had told them about his discovery, and they immediately took off with survival items: Michael and Cameron with nets, Eddie with his bare hands. They came across a dry spot that they called their home base, then they devised a plan to investigate further.

The plan the three came up with was simple: Michael would bonk the crabs with the pole of his net, then catch the crabs. Cameron would then take the crabs back to the place the group initially met up to put them safely in a bucket.

Chapter 2

The Capture

The plan worked flawlessly. Crabs were flying into the net left and right. Michael swiftly retrieved three crabs and Cameron brought them back to shore immediately. A large group of people were attracted. The catching slowed down after that. More and more people arrived, scaring away the crabs, and the crab catch was soon coming to a stop.

Another group stated that there were 17 crabs scampering away, meaning that there were 20 crabs total. Michael told everyone and every group in the area about how the crabs were coordinating a plan to fight back against the catchers, as he had previously experienced. Eddie, Michael, and Cameron explored further, while others stayed behind in fear of experiencing what Michael had experienced.

Chapter 3

The Wasteland

Eddie, Michael, and Cameron were alone in an area far away from the rest of the crab catching groups. They were in the territory of the crab gang, and evidence showed. There were holes everywhere, the river had many places to hide inside and out for the crabs, and there were no people in sight.
