## Plot

In Rubyswell, Wisconsin, a giraffe named Virgie Yellowface makes a new marionette that looks like a black baby bull calf. So she names it "Brilliant Bull."

The next night, she presents Brilliant Bull at her puppet show at Butterpine Park. Brilliant Bull gets to be controlled to dance and dances with some other marionettes in the show. One, night, Virgie makes a wish upon a wishing star.

She wishes that Brilliant Bull would be a real bull calf and have some special super powers. She drives her truck on her way home. Brilliant Bull gets loose, falls out of her trailer’s window she has forgotten to close and gets lost. The star Virgie Yellowface wished upon comes down and hits Brilliant Bull unharmed. He is magically brought to life and turned into a real calf. He begins to move by himself and starts to talk. "I have been brought to life" were his first words.

Later, he finds a farm where he chooses to live and he discovers that he has got super powers. Next day, he practices using some of his powers and they eventually become handy. He even has flying powers. Brilliant Bull enjoys his new life until one night, he becomes very sad and lonely because he wants someone to keep him company. He even begins to cry.

Next day, some baby animals that would live on the farm are delivered to Brilliant Bull. He approaches towards them and starts to meet them. A white baby calf named Courageous Cow falls in love with Brilliant Bull. All the other babies introduce themselves when they meet each other. All the babies show that they all have powers to each other. Brilliant Bull decides to be the leader of the group they get be in and the other animals agree.

Their powers get to be useful for miscellaneous things, especially for solving problems, especially for saving someone in distress. As six years go by, they grow up to be bigger kids. While going to school, their ages match all six grades. The next two years, while they are eight years old, they are in eighth grade and graduate from middle school. When four more years pass, while they are twelve years old, they are in twelfth grade and graduate from high school. Next year, while they have their first year of college, they become thirteen years old. Three years later, while they are seventeen years old, they graduate from college. In a few days after graduating from college, all the love couples of that group of animals get married and go back to their farm. For their honeymoon, they go to New Orleans, Louisiana. They hang around in the French Quarter. While they are there, they have some beignets topped with powdered sugar and some coffee to go with them at Café du Monde. They have a cable car ride through the Garden District. They even had some other fun things to be done in New Orleans, especially while riding on a riverboat along the Mississippi River. To end their honeymoon, they fly above Bayou St. John and they wave to some people in public and the people wave back.

One day in the next year, in Rubyswell, while all those barnyard animals were eighteen-year-old full-grown adults, they find a bottle with a message for help at the beach. It is from someone named Faith Cuddletoe at Pine Island, which is located in Waller County, Texas, where she has been purloined by Madam Vice and brought to a mansion called "Vice Mansion", where she and her henchmen live. Brilliant Bull gets an idea. He decides that since he and the other animals in his group have got super powers, they could be superheroes and look exactly like superheroes. They make and put their suits and have a name for the group, which is called "the Barnyard Hero Brigade." They make a magical bus to travel with and it flies up into the air.

Later at dusk, at a creepy mansion, which was Vice Mansion in Pine Island, Texas, a door opens and out steps a lady dachshund, who is Faith Cuddletoe. She sneaks outside and runs away. A lady’s voice calls Faith, but she does not answer because she keeps running away. That voice was from none other than…

An evil human woman, Madam Vice who feels furious. She tells her henchmen, Upperfreak and Peazooka to look for Faith and bring her back and they start looking.

The Barnyard Hero Brigade lands in the forest by the bayou in Pine Island safely. They meet the Woodlandvillians in the forest. Some of the Woodlandvillians explain that a day ago, they were having a one-week cruise vacation, sailing along the North Atlantic Ocean on the seventh day of their cruise vacation after they visited London, England, something mysteriously made a huge hole in the left side of the ship, which caused it to sin and they got shipwrecked, got on an emergency life raft and were hoping to go home, but unfortunately, a dreadful storm began and it rained hard. A huge tidal wave came towards the Woodlandvillians. Some of them tried to row faster, but they were not fast enough because the wave splashed all over them and caused them all to go overboard. They swam back to the raft until it deflated when it got punctured by a rock. So they swam for their lives and another tidal wave carried them and brought them to shore on the beach at Fort Lauderdale, Florida. So, they took a stroll there and found Fort Lauderdale Grand Hotel and stayed there for the rest of the day and for the night. While the Woodlandvillians were having breakfast in the lobby the next morning we watched the news about Faith Cuddletoe, who had been missing and was taken somewhere in Pine Island, Texas. So, they finished our breakfast, got packed up and ready, and we went to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport to take a flight to William P. Hobby Airport in Houston, Texas. Then, they had some rides called and they took those rides to Pine Island in some taxis. It took an hour and forty-four minutes to get to Pine Island. The superheroes feel shocked when they hear that story.

Meanwhile, Faith gets found grabbed by Uppercut and Peazooka. The superheroes and Woodlandvillians fly to Vice Mansion. They sneak in while they are invisible and they go into the room where Faith Cuddletoe is locked up.

Faith Cuddletoe out of the room. The Barnyard Hero Brigade and the Woodlandvillians secretly follow her into the Cave Without a Name to accompany her. They find the emerald and Faith gives it to Madam Vice.

The brigade and the Woodlandvillians go to the deck of the mansion and see that Madam Vice is planning to send Faith Cuddletoe to Mauritania in a trunk on wheels at 9 pm. When Vice and her henchmen are asleep, The Barnyard Hero Brigade and their Woodlandville friends go inside. The heroes set Faith free and Hero Horse grabs the emerald. Unfortunately, one of Madam Vice's henchman, Picklepucker and Rottenhead come inside after guarding outside and spot the animals with Faith and the emerald. Hero Horse gets hit by a plunger Picklepucker throws at him. It causes him to rebound and bump into Madam Vice, which wakes her up so suddenly.

Vice notices that the alarm on the clock is turned off. She wakes up the rest of her minions with an alarm bell. The chase and battle begin. Everyone has a wild chase and battle until the BHB ties, gags and locks Madam Vice in the trunk and sends her outside. They also send the other rascals away on Vice’s motorboat that was out of control. At 9 pm, a postal truck arrives in front of the mansion and the trunk gets picked up and taken away.

When everyone gets to the city in Rubyswell, many citizens see them. Even Virgie Yellowface is there. Brilliant Bull explains about the adventure. Everyone in the crowd cheers. Virgie is so happy to see Brilliant Bull as a real bull besides being a superhero. The Barnyard Hero Brigade becomes famous. Faith has a reunion with her husband, Hanmer Cuddletoe and thanks her new friends for rescuing her. The brigade makes a clone copy of the emerald so it would be displayed in a museum while they keep the one they found before.

The brigade had designed a telephone that could be their hotline that would be for emergency purposes only. After a while, the B.H.B. let their friends visit their barnyard. Soon, Faith farewells and she and Hanmer ride away in their car. The Woodlandvillians also farewell the Barnyard Hero Brigade and go home too. And so, the Barnyard Hero Brigade is the greatest group superheroes of Rubyswell. From now on, if there would be any heroic thing for them to do, they would always be congratulated.
