Fred-Eric Goes On An Adventure.

Frederick was a nice bug. Polite, calm and a little shy he kept mostly to himself. One spontaneous day he decided to explore the world from a human's perspective and so ventured out into the unknown until eventually he arrived at a train station. Freddie had no Oyster Card because of course he wasn't in London and he was too small to carry the epic one pound coin to the ticket machines to purchase a valid ticket.

Like most of the other bugs in the station, Freddie found himself restlessly waiting on the window frame. He watched all the people come and go, feeding their tickets into the constantly opening barriers and he knew that he could easily take one from their pockets but NO! Freddie was no thief and besides he was trying life as a human and he was pretty sure that people were good and never stole. How little Freddie knew.

Whilst wandering around the little ledge, Freddie took no notice of the two girls who came and stood beside him until tragedy struck and Freddie was flung through the air by a giant finger! Shaken and confused Freddie couldn't understand why this had happened and struggled uselessly on his back. The two girls peered down until one of them helped him back up.

Of course, this was only the beginning. Freddie was then a victim to the dreaded camera! He tried unsuccessfully to climb the wall to escape. He didn't want to be posted on Photobucket. Eventually, Frederick was left tired and exhausted. As much as he hated to admit it, being a model was quite fun after the initial shock.

Hopping up onto a higher ledge Freddie was stunned into silence when he came face to face with his rival Harold. Harold was a Green Fly and believed that his petite figure made him superior to Freddie. A fight soon ensued and although Freddie tried his hardest, he was soon thrown from the ledge to once again land painfully on his back.

Holly and Gemma, who had been watching the fight with avid amusement and chanting 'Fight, fight, fight!' gasped in horror as Freddie stopped moving. Gemma gave Freddie a hand and he scrambled to his feet while Harold casually stolled from view.

Soon, an emotional goodbye arrived as Freddie discovered he had to part with his new found friends and once they were gone he decided that Oyster Cards, train tickets and a rematch with Harold could wait for another day. He headed home to make some tea and watch Coronation Street.
