Welcome to Chapter Six - writing in blue is Hannah's, and writing in red is Jess's

"I'm sick of following this stupid road!" Xander exclaimed.
"How far's Disneyland, Lee?" asked Otto.
"About a mile...then the Wild Wood's about a mile out the other side."
"Ah, that's not too bad," said Ben, positively.
"Disneyland is 27 miles across," Lee said, morosely.
"Oh...b*gger."
"Why don't we fly?" suggested Peter, sarcastically.
"Oh, that's REALLY funny, Peter, thanks," said Xander, annoyed.
"That's an excellent idea, Peter," said Lee.
"What?" Ben exclaimed.
"Lion can fly," said Lee.
"Oh...God."
"You could fly all this time and you didn't TELL us?" Spike exclaimed.
"You didn't ask," said Lion.
"Just all get on," Lee said, tired of arguing.
They all struggled onto Lion, who took off.
"This is RIDICULOUS," said Hannah, closing her eyes.
They flew over two men walking along the road.
"Ugh! Christ! What was that?"
"Bloody pigeons."


"Are we there yet?" Jess shouted above the noise of rushing wind. "Are we there yet?"
"Ding dong doodle!" Spike cried.
"Precisely Spike! 275.259 metres to go!" Lee shouted.
Are we there yet?" Jess called again. "My hair's going to look nasty after this!"
"Yeah yeah," said Hannah.
"Are we there yet?"
"What's the time Otto?"
"Are we there yet?"
"11:15am apparently."
"Are we there yet?"
"Actually we run on a different time scale."
"Are we there yet?"
"It's 72:47."
"Are we there yet?"
"Oh great. I'm not even going to begin working that out."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
Otto threw Jess off the Lion but unfortunately for him they had already landed.
"Welcome," declared Lee. "To DISNEYLAND!" A huge Mickey Mouse head stood ahead of them, with a big door where his mouth would normally be.
"Oh my GOD." Hannah looked around. "How...quaint."
"Hee hee...look at the big mouse!" Jess giggled, pointing at the huge figure.
"Yes, Jess," sighed Ben, patting her on the head.
They approached the mouth of Mickey Mouse and were greeted by a young guy wearing a pair of Mickey Mouse ears on a head band and holding tickets.
"Welcome to Disneyland!" he said with practised enthusiasm. "Prepare for the funnest, most fun, funniest, funnest day in the history of-"
Lee stopped him. "Excuse me - what was your name?"
"Joe."
"Right, Joe - please, for your own sake, for you own sanity - GET OUT OF HERE."
Joe nodded slowly, dropped his tickets and ran.
"What was that about?!" Jess giggled.
"Doesn't matter," Lee dismissed. "Let's find Chuck Jones...he's got to be round here somewhere..." Lee wandered off towards the Mickey Mouse head where there was a small, not very apparent door to the right of the mouth. Lee knocked on the door.
"WHAT?" came a shout from inside.
"CHUCK? IT'S ME, LEE."
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" came a grouchy reply.
"I'VE GOT TO COME IN!"
The door slowly opened to reveal Chuck Jones squinting from the sunlight, coming out of the darkened room behind him.
"I was drawing."
"Very sorry, my Lord but I need to transform everyone here into cartoon characters and then need passes."
"You can only get day passes because if people stay in for longer than a day they stay in cartoon form forever!" He cackled.
"COOL!" giggled Jess.
"Yes, well...we'll take the chance. We need to cross Disneyland and go to the Wild Wood," said Lee.
"What for?" asked Chuck.
"We need to capture the magical flying Possum."
"Why?"
"Because - look, I really don't have time to explain, can we just get our passes?"
"Just walk through that machine over there." Chuck pointed and they all saw a large, shining silver machine with a dark doorway in one side of it.
The group lined up nervously and began to file into the doorway. When they each popped out the other end, they were all completely two-dimensional.
"WOW!" laughed Jess. "I've never been this thin in my LIFE!"
"I feel suddenly...lightheaded." Hannah declared.
"Well, your brain has been squashed into one centimetre ac-"
"What do you know about The Brain?" Hannah cut Peter off in mid sentence.

"Nothing." Peter bowed his head and walked off.
Hannah looked down at herself in cartoon form and cried aloud, "I can't take over the world looking like this!!"
Ben looked up. "What did you say?"
"I said smurfs are cooking crisps."
"Where?!" Ben ran off excitedly. He had seemed to have turned into a little boy with a sling-shot in his back pocket.
Otto was the last person to be cartoonified and he had turned into an extra evil black gothic man and evil 'Jaws' theme tune music played whenever you walked near him.
Lee was now an official Sofa Gremlin with real green ears and a sofa-like material outfit on.
Xander and Ben had officially turned into the two naughty twins. Spike now had hair like a mad scientific professor and Peter seemed to have acquired clown trousers much to his displeasure.
"Are we all ready to go?" asked Lee.
Jess bounded over dressed like a cartoon duck.
"Right, off we go..."
"WAIT!" Lion ran over dressed as a toilet.
"How ironic," said Hannah, laughing.
"That's enough, Hannah. Let's go," said Lee.
