shoot lasers from his eyes and paws. He gains super-strength. He
can blow cold air from his mouth if needed. Benny can also
strike lightning.
Night vision is one of his powers. He has super speed, which
helps him run faster than a cheetah. He can also fly. He has other

Darkwave: What? How about you go inside?
Darkwave laughed evilly. Valentino ignored the comment.
Valentino: How about you be quiet and do something useful for
once? Look, I’m drawing!
Valentino has a notepad and a pencil. He drew a picture of a
superhero tiger. It was not very good. Darkwave was wondering
what he drew.
Darkwave: Let me see!
He saw Valentino’s drawing.
Darkwave: That’s your drawing?! (Laughs). It’s hideous!
Darkwave the cat slapped the notepad out of Valentino’s paw.
Valentino: Hey!

The Snowstorm
There is a severe snowstorm currently in Locktown. The roads
and grounds are filled with snow and ice. It is cold and freezing.
However, Darkwave and Cheddar are stuck in the mountains
outside of town. They were hiking in the mountains, taking
photos, and enjoying the outdoors.
Cheddar, the cat, is Benny’s cousin. He is a chubby, orange cat
with green eyes. He loves to eat. He wears a yellow bow tie. He
sometimes wears a yellow superhero cape. He looks up to
Benny. Cheddar is nice, kind, funny, and loyal.
Cheddar and Darkwave notice that it is very hard to see with the
strong winds. Cheddar is wearing a yellow beanie hat, yellow
mittens, and a yellow scarf with thin white stripes. He is wearing
a light green backpack.
Darkwave is wearing dark purple earmuffs, purple mittens, and
a black scarf. He is frustrated. He is wearing a purple backpack.
Darkwave: Looks like the snowstorm is getting worse! I told
you, Cheddar, that this adventure was a bad idea!
Cheddar was worried.
Cheddar: I’m sorry! I just wanted to—
Darkwave: Save it! Now how are we supposed to get home?!
Cheddar: Don’t worry, we’ll be okay in no time!
Darkwave and Cheddar try to make it back to town by walking.
They are freezing. They find it hard to find their way back
home. So, they try to think of ways to get help.
Cheddar and Darkwave are cold and freezing. Cheddar quickly
thought of a plan.
Cheddar: Oh! I got it! Maybe we could call Benny for help!
Darkwave: What?! Who?! Benny?! I’d rather freeze!
Cheddar: No! We have no other choice! Take out your phone
and call him already!
Darkwave: Why don’t you call him?
Cheddar: Because I left my phone at home.
Cheddar was sad. His eyes watered.
Darkwave: Oh, okay, fine! I’ll call him!
When Darkwave tried to call Benny, the phone was out of
service!
Darkwave: I can’t! It’s out of service! Now what are we going to
do?!
Cheddar was scared.
Darkwave: Hmmm. Doesn’t Benny have that super hearing
power? Maybe we can make loud enough sound for Benny to
hear so that he can come get us!
Cheddar: But how?
Darkwave screamed very loudly, and when he did, his yelling
triggered an avalanche. There was a fast flow of snow coming
down from the mountains. Luckily, Benny heard his voice from
afar.
Benny was at home. He is wearing a blue scarf. He is drinking
hot chocolate from a blue-colored mug. He spat out the hot
chocolate when he heard something loud. When he hears the
loud sound with the help of his super hearing powers, it catches
his attention.
Benny: Someone’s in trouble!
He put his superhero cape on.
Benny flew fast out of town near to the mountains.
He was up in the air, floating, looking for the people who called
him for help. He used his super sight to look for them. His eyes
turned yellow.
Benny: Come on! Come on! Where are they?!
Benny gasped as soon as he noticed it was Cheddar and
Darkwave who were the ones that were lost and needed help.
Cheddar and Darkwave were waving from below to catch
Benny’s attention. Benny goes near them.
Benny: Hi!
Cheddar: Oh, how glad we are to see you!
Cheddar hugged Benny.
Benny: Aww. You guys okay? What happened?
Darkwave: Yeah, we’re fine. Cheddar decided it was okay to go
on an adventure trip to the mountains in this cold weather and
decided to tag me along with him!
Cheddar: But—
Benny: Hmmm. Let’s get you two home!
Benny helped them to get home. The trio all decide to stay in
Benny’s apartment until the snowstorm ends. Darkwave,
Cheddar, and Benny all make it to Benny’s home. Benny offers
Darkwave and Cheddar warm blankets and some hot chocolate.
They all sit on the couch.
Darkwave: Well, today was a cold day.
Darkwave glared at Cheddar. Cheddar frowned.
Benny: Cheer up, buddy! At least you’re safe! Now let’s see
what’s on TV!
Benny used the remote and turned on the TV. The weather
channel is on.
The Weather Reporter (voice): Today, the severe snowstorm will
last all day. However, roads will be affected for several days.
Darkwave: Awww! We’re stuck here all day!
Benny: Well, I hear no thanks from you!
Darkwave: Eh, sorry, Benny. Thanks.
Benny looked at Darkwave. Cheddar’s stomach growled. He is
hungry.
Cheddar: I’m so hungry!
Cheddar hopped off the couch and went into Benny’s kitchen to
look for some snacks. He found Benny’s cookie jar! It is filled
with soft chocolate chip cookies!
Cheddar took one bite and was pleased.
Cheddar: These are the best cookies I’ve ever eaten!
Cheddar ate them all! Darkwave also wanted to get some
snacks. He sees that Cheddar ate all of the cookies in the cookie
jar. Cheddar burped.
Darkwave: Cheddar! Did you eat all of the cookies?!
Cheddar: Yeah? So?
Darkwave: I wanted some too! Save some for the rest of us,
cheesehead!
After that, Cheddar, Benny, and Darkwave all sit on the couch
watching a movie about superhero lions. However, the movie is
interrupted!
Benny, Cheddar, and Darkwave: Huh?!
There is static noise coming from the TV! Flash wants to
communicate with Benny. The TV screen shows Flash’s digital
computer face. The screen is light cyan with black dot eyes,
eyebrows, and a mouth.
Benny smiled as soon as he saw Flash on the TV screen.
Benny: Flash! What’s up?!
Flash: Hey, Benny! Listen, it’s snowing outside, and I’m a little
cold! But it’s okay! How are you holding up?
Benny: I’m fine! So are Cheddar and Darkwave.
Darkwave: Hey, Flash!
Cheddar: Flash! The best car in the world!
Cheddar hugged Benny’s TV. Flash chuckled.
Flash: What's up, guys? Well, catch you later!
Flash logged off. Everyone was happy they spoke to Flash.
Benny: Well, the storm will be over soon. At least the heater is
not busted. What do you guys want to do?
They all decide to color and draw. Cheddar, Darkwave, and
Benny all sit at the table in the kitchen. Benny’s kitchen table is
blue with four orange-colored chairs. Cheddar and Darkwave
are drawing a picture, while Benny is working on some math
puzzles.
Darkwave: Whoa, dude, do you always work on math puzzles?
Benny: Yeah! You know, I wasn’t always a math whiz.
Darkwave: Seriously?!
Benny nodded.
Benny: Anyways, how was your trip to the mountains with
Cheddar today?
Darkwave: It was boring! A total waste of time!
Benny frowned. Cheddar was upset! Cheddar was drawing a
picture of him and Darkwave smiling. The background of the
picture was of snowy mountains and a bright yellow sun. It says
best friends on it. Cheddar left the table crying and took his
drawing with him.
Benny: Cheddar! Wait! Darkwave?! What is your problem?!
Darkwave was surprised. Benny went to talk to Cheddar.
Cheddar was sad in the living room. Cheddar was sitting on the
couch.
Benny: Hey, Cheddar.
Cheddar wiped the tears from his face.
Cheddar: Huh? Hi.
Benny: What’s wrong?
Cheddar: I wanted to go on an adventure trip with one of my
best buddies, Darkwave! But it turns out he did not like today’s
trip.
Benny: Aww, I’m sorry, buddy!
Darkwave was eavesdropping on them.
Cheddar: Well, it’s okay. I made a drawing of us together!
Cheddar shows Benny the drawing he made of himself and
Darkwave’s adventure trip.
Benny: Aww! That’s cute!
Cheddar: But I bet he won’t appreciate it.
Benny: Don’t be so sad, Cheddar! You know how Darkwave is.
The important thing is that you care!
Cheddar: Aww, thanks, Benny!
Benny and Cheddar hugged each other. Benny noticed that
Darkwave was listening to their conversation.
Benny: Darkwave?!
Darkwave feels awful and wants to make it up to Cheddar.
Darkwave: Look, I’m so sorry, Cheddar! I didn’t know our
friendship meant that much to you!
Cheddar sniffled.
Cheddar: Really?
Darkwave nodded.
Cheddar showed him his drawing of him and Darkwave’s
friendship. Darkwave gasped.
Darkwave: This is the best drawing I have ever seen!
Darkwave hugged Cheddar. Cheddar smiled. Benny smiled too.
Benny looked out the window. Looks like the storm ended.
Benny: The snowstorm is over!
Darkwave: (chuckles). I guess! Thanks for saving us, Benny!
Benny: Anytime.
Benny, Cheddar, and Darkwave all hugged each other!
Darkwave: Hey, since the storm is over, let’s all have a snowball
fight!
Benny and Cheddar: Yeah!
The cats put on their mittens and go outside. Darkwave and
Cheddar also built a snowman! They are all happy!
What’s next for the cats?
