The Puntastic Adventures of Crouton Salado: Prolog

Slowly, the soft light permeated throughout the room. Shapes emerge from the endless darkness, glowering at the miniscule figure they surround.
A deep rumbling sound comes from the largest one.
“Pebble”
The dark grey shape in the middle cowered at the mentioning of its name.
“Yes m’lord? What do you desire of me?”
“Pebble. Once again, the evil robots have swarmed the land of Fude. With great care and consideration, you have been chosen to defeat them.”
Pebble tried to stifle a gasp, shocked at the project he was assigned.
“But how, m’lord? I am but a mere rock! Not even part of this noble kingdom, you so kindly rule.”
“But that special difference about you is what allows you to defeat the robots. Only you are tough enough to withstand their blows. Only you can resist the power of the Cheesaract. And only you can take it from the robots to harness it for the better good of Fude!”
He crouched and sprang, zooming off into the infinite void it appeared they were in. The smallest now revealed itself to Pebble.
“Do not worry, small friend, for you shall not be alone. In this quest, you are assigned 5 companions to help complete this task. They have been watching this, seeing what you see and hearing what you have heard. They know. They shall wake soon, and begin their search for you. Go. Find your enemy Crouton Salado. He shall be the first.”
And Crouton woke with a gasp.
