"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.
