"Oh boy, I hope I found the right place eh?" The furry beaver said to himself as he got to the back of the theater. He looked around, and went down the alley, past the garbage cans, and went up the concrete stairs. He straightened his red sweater, with the white maple leaf on it, and knocked on the door.
"Coming!" Said a excited voice from the inside. The door opened, and a blue fellow with a crooked nose appeared in front of the beaver.
"Hi there! Welcome to the Muppet theater. My name's Gonzo, my stage name is Gonzo the Great, and my barber's name is Tim, but you can call me Gonzo." He extended his hand for a handshake.
The beaver gulped. "I really REALLY hope this is the right place." He thought to himself as he stared at the blue guy in front of him.
"...uh....hello?" Gonzo asked, waving his hand in front of the beaver's face.
The beaver snapped out of it. "Oh! Uh, hi there! My name is Ripley the beaver, and I was wondering if you guys were holding auditions eh?"
Gonzo lead Ripley into the backstage area, and looked at a clipboard.
"Well let's see, what can you do?"
Ripley's tail began to thump excitedly.
"What can I do? What can't I do?! I can sing, I can dance, I can juggle, I can do impersonations, I can build dams, I can balance a computer on my head......and I can do this!" He began to knaw on a leg of Kermit's desk, and it fell over.
"Oooh! Cool! You're a living breathing handsaw! You have potential kid. I'll go talk to the head honcho, so you stay right here, OK?" Gonzo asked.
"You got it Gary!"
"It's Gonzo."
"Oh...Gonzo! Sorry eh?"
"Say, are you Canadian?"
"Born and raised, eh?"
"Cool, I hear that Canada has great french fries!"
"Uh....well....." But before Ripley could correct him, Gonzo ran off to find Kermit the Frog. So, he sat down and began to hum a little song. Just then, Annie Sue Pig came out of her dressing room, and walked down the stairs, and went over to the water fountain. Ripley noticed her, and decided to walk over to her and introduce herself, because he was a polite beaver.
"Hi there. I'm Ripley."
But, Annie Sue had her back turned the whole time, and hadn't seen his face at this point.
"Oh....hi there. My name is Annie Sue." With a bored tone of voice.
"Have you been in show business long, eh?"
"Well.....kind of." She replied.
"Oh. Well, I think I am going to be working here too."
"Really." She replied while looking at her nails.
"Yeah! This is going to be so cool!"
Annie Sue started to get fed up with Ripley and started to turn around.
"Well listen kid, I....." But when she saw his face, she was over come with emotion. "....I...I..uh.."
She had never seen anything like him. He had a cute furry face, and eyes that were kind of sleepy, but easy going. He had buck teeth, but straight white teeth. He was wearing a red sweater with a white mapleleaf on it, and was kind of short, but very cute in Annie Sue's eyes. She felt cupid's arrow, and she didn't fight it.
"Here he is Kermit, the Canadian hand saw!" Gonzo pointed Kermit towards Ripley.
"So, tell me, do you really want to be in show business?"
"Oh yes, very much sir! I watched you guys on television when hockey season was finished! I really want this!"
"Oh good, because your hired." He handed Ripley a contract for him to sign, and Ripley's hands were shaking.
"I...I don't know what to say Mr. Frog." Ripley said with a shakey voice.
"Well, I can tell you what to do. You can repair my workdesk." Kermit said, with a somewhat firm tone of voice.
"Oh absolutely! Right away Mr. Frog! Whatever you say, eh?"
Ripley immediately went to find the tools, and started to fix the desk, and Annie Sue kept her eyes on him the whole time. She didn't move a inch from where she was standing before.
"I think I am in love." She thought to herself with a sigh.
"Coming!" Said a excited voice from the inside. The door opened, and a blue fellow with a crooked nose appeared in front of the beaver.
