Fan Fic - And what is on the other side...?

[Beauregard]

Just a tiny bit more tody, I am afraid....



In Reanbu....time was catching up...

Mrs Regard ran into her house, and slammed the door. The event with the greying birds had made her more afraid than ever before. Was the rainbow passing punishment on them all? Or punishment for Beauhoth's return? Mrs Regard began to hurriedly stuff clothing into a bag...she would run while she could.

She grabed handfulls of clothes from a drawer, running across the tiled floor and letting them drop where they fell.

Suddenly the sky went dark. She heard screams from outside. A shadow passed over her window. Thunder rumbled, lighting cracked.

"Save us from the wroth!" Mrs Regard screamed. "Save us!"

In the Muppet Labs Bunsen beant over the Rainbow machine. With his assitent's assitence he had fitted a new wire into place where the old one had been cut. Bunsen was still unsure of the mystery sourounding it. Someone had cut it, and disptite the Newsman's repeated protests, he could say no more than that.

"I think we are ready to raise a rainbow now," Bunsen said. "Beaker, if you would."

Beaker shook his head, and twiddled his fingers. "Mee, mee, meee!"

"Now, that is very naughty...oh, all right, I'll do it." Bunsen stepped op to the sphere, and pressed the red-button. A small rainbow arched out, and Bunsen clapped his hands in delight. "Wonderfull!" he said. "Splended. We should go through and save that little frog now."

But Beaker was pointing to it, "Mee, mee! Mwoo!"

"What? Oh...oh my."

The Rainbow had turned black, grey, and white. "This can't be right," Bunsen said.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[The Count]

Ah! Splendid, you've turned it into a darkbow.

So nice to see a bit of darkness in a world so full of color. Helps bring about the story's climax much better.
Mind if I borrow a darkbow or two Bo?

 

[Whatever]

Ooooh the suspence!

Apsoloutly not. I have no problem with anyone borrowing any aspect of my stories. feel free to help yourselves.

 

[TogetherAgain]

Well, Beau, it appears it is time for me to nag you about this again. I mean, look at this, you haven't given us any story since... the 18th! And here it is the 21st. That's not cool, Beau. Now, I've been trying to go easy on you, because your parents have been cutting back your time, and I understand that, but... well, I can only be understanding and patient for so long, you see...

So.

GIVE US MORE! SAVE THE RAINBOW! NOW! HELP! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

 

[Beauregard]

Believe it or not...here is some more story....

"We'll split up," Skeeter said, taking charge. She knew from her jungle experience that when half a group wanted to stay, and the other half wanted to go, a split was totally necessary. Besides, if one group got hurt, they'd need the others... "I'll take Sam, Robin and Kermit. Rowlf, you and Gonzo stay here with the machine. See if you can figure out what makes it tick."

Robin shivered at the word. "What makes it go," he corrected, remebering the ticking of time.

"All right." Rowlf nodded. "Good luck."

And they left. Skeeter took the lead, with Kermit beside her. Sam hurried behind, faffing about. Robin sat on Skeeter's shoulder. "What are we looking for?" he asked.

"Anything," Skeeter said. "We have to let Beauhoth and Beautingleroth, and Beauregard into the building. We must find Miss Nancy and warn her of the time."

"Find Miss Nancy? Skeeter, she tried to kill me..." Robin said.

Kermit stopped, grabbed Skeeter's arm. "What? What! Who tired to kill my Robin?"

"A woman," Skeeter said. "The now ruler of Reanbu. I'll explain as we go."

"Skeeter, Robin cannot stay here if he is going to get hurt, and I mean that," Kermit said.

"Uncle Kermit?"

"Not now, Robin. Skeeter, do you see what I'm saying? Robin must go back to the others."

Sam leant over. "Can we hurry, I get the itchy-twitchies in this place."

"Uncle Kermit!" Robin shouted.

"What?"

"Uncle Kermit, I wanna stay with you. I wanna put things right here. For Beau. For us. For the rainbow."

Kermit watched the sincerity of Robin's face, and wondered what exactly the rainbow had spoken to him. He looked at the fierce determination on Skeeter's face. "Right," he said. "Let's go."

There was a scream...

(*)(^)(*)(^)(*)

Rowlf rubbed his hands together, and glanced at Gonzo. Gonzo's eyes widened, and he glanced at Rowlf. "Let's do it," Gonzo said.

"Ready when you are."

They stepped closer to the machine, and both of them touched it. The Rainbow hovered overhead, as if watching their moves.

"Do you know how to do this stuff?" Gonzo asked.

"I'm not Bunsen, but I get by," Rowlf said.

"Right."

The machine, as has been noted, was mainly black. A keypad was set in the middle, and a dial to one side. A white screen, inlaid near the back of the machine showed a pulsing line, like a heartbeat. The main point of the machine was a screen, that wasn't a screen at all. It was nothing that you could feel, but it was open to veiw the world on the other side of the rainbow.

Rowlf stared at the keypad. "See these numbers," he said. "if we look at them like I would look at ye olde keys on the piano."

Gonzo frowned. "How exactly is that..."

Rowlf ran his fingers lightly over them. "With care and lovin' attention, young friend."

"Oh, like I'd look at a chicken."

"No, not, exactly. Thing is..."

"What is the thing?"

"The thing is, some of these keys are definatly more worn than others."

"Wanna try playing them, or what?" Gonzo asked.

Rowlf mved his fingers onto the worn keys. "Yeah," he said. "Yeah, why not..." He kne which keys to hit, but not the tune to hit them in. If he had his piano here....and there were worn keys, he'd know those were used in a delightfull little often used melody, but without the music...

A thin beam strobbed from the rainbow.

Rowlf knew the correct order.

"I'd like the pistachio soup, with a little salt. Medium rare," Beauhoth said.

Miss Piggy's eyes narrowed. She'd had quite enough of this now. "Fozzie, Skootie, can you two stand back a litle please," she said.

Beautingleroth touched her shoulder "What are you doing?"

"Kermit once had amnesia," she said.

"Kermit?"

"Yes, and you know what knocked him out of it? Being knocked."

"Knocked.."

"Mummy, can I run outside and play?" Beauhoth said. "Whahahahahah! I wanna go outside and play! Please Mummy. But Tinny ALWAYS gets to go outside and play!"

"Alright, that does it. Hi-yah!"

Beauhoth felt every part of the glass cracked as he smashed into the mirror. He felt the engraved mirror etching press into his skin. He felt his head hit the wall. And he felt much better.

He fell to the tiled floor, and crawled into a sitting position. "Beau's, Miss Piggy....friends, I am so sorry."

"Alright, I wanna know what just happened?" Piggy said, advancing on him.

Beauhoth held up a hand. "It's just....i lost control to Mrs nancy. She has the Hearts. and she is using them."

(^)(*)(^)(*)(^)

The scream came from the direction of a small hallway. The four Muppets started running, and screetched to a stop in front of a thick door. Robin recognised it immediatly. "The tower!" he exclaimed.

Skeeter grimiced. "Miss Nancy can only have shut someone else in there."

"Gee, this Miss Nancy sounds like an interesting woman," Kermit said.

"Intersting or not," said Sam the Eagle. "She sounds as evil as Knievel."

Kermit laid a hand on the doorknob. "Weird thing is," he said. "Usually we'd have had a confrontation with the bad guy by now. This Miss Nancy hasn't shown up around me yet."

Robin hopped from Skeeter to Kermit. "Trust me," he said. "You don't want to met ehr."

Kermit poushed the door open, and stopped.

Sketter stepped in behind him. "Looks like you don't have a choice," she said.

Mrs Nancy was chained to the wall....and had fainted.

 

[Beauregard]

Beauhoth paced the floor, his soft feet brushing against the cold tiles. He waved his hands expressively as he spoke. "She's done it," he said. "She got hold of the Hearts, dispite my attempt to hide them, Miss nancy stole them, locked me away, took them for herself. I never saw what she did with them...I guess I would never have known if the two yellow humans had't saved me from The End."

"What has she done?" Miss Piggy asked. She glanced to Fozzie and Skooter. They had lain Beau on the floor, and Beautingleroth knelt by him. Beauregard was still out cold.

"She....when you did that, thing. That -"

"- Karate chop?" Piggy promted.

"I think, yes."

"Like this, Hi-"

"Yes that!" Beauhoth said hastily. "When you did that, I had a moment of clear thought, then I throw the pain, she, Miss Nancy, she was usuing my, you see. She controlled my mind. So I gathered the pathway, and throw the pain to her. In that moment I saw everything. What she did with the hearts...she's killing the rainbow..."

"What? Why?"

"I think it was an accident...but it may be too late."

*)(*)(*

Animal hit up a beat on the drums, Floyd plucked strings, and Dr Teeth started out on the electric-organ. The saxaphone and trumpet picked up. And it sounded bad, it sounded terrable. "Woah, mans and gentlebeasts," Dr Teeth said. "Let us pause for a moment."

Lips set his trumpet down. "Why there, what's the problem?"

Animal smashed his head into a drum, and went silent.

"May I ask, where be your hearts today, my friends?" Dr Teeth asked.

"Like, elsewhere, I guess," Janice said. "We're all, rully worried about Robin Frog."

"Well, now, you all know that Kermit my main man has gone in search of our litte green friend."

"Well, yeah, man," Floyd said. "But, I don't know'as that'll help us feel the calm for him".

Dr Teeth loked over his little band with concern. Their faces did show worry. He said, "Many years ago I chanced upon a kindly man named of Cantus. He taught me a song that I think you should know to sing, it went, When you long for the height of the mountains, when you long for the blue..." he began to play. "Leave your heart where it's deep and it's down again, lose your heart till it's new.

Zoot began with the notes floating from his sax.

"Seek your heart on the high blue skyway,
Keep your heart and it's bound.
Steep your heart in the deep of the earth again.
Lose your heart and it's found."

Animal touched his sticks to the cymbol, then settled to a slow beat.

"Once I thought I could fly like an eagle can.
Once I thought I was brave.
Now I wait till my heart starts to beat again,
Deep in the heart of the cave."

Janice joined for the corus, "Like, Seek your heart on the high blue skyway,
Keep your heart and it's bound.
Steep your heart in the deep of the earth again.
Lose your heart and it's found.

And Floyd, "Lose your heart and it's found."

Together, "Lose your heart and it's found. Lose your heart and it's found."

"You see," Dr Teeth said as the music faded. "Our friend is lost in the caves, and we sure did loose our hearts there with him, but we must find our hearts once more and progress forward on. Robin would want it, Kermit would want it."

"Why, like, your right, but I sure hope Robin is ok-ey," Janice said."

And Rowlf watched them on the machine, and assured them he was. "And he'll be back before you know it, too," he said.

The coordinents, for such they were, that Rowlf had pressed into the keypad had led to the center of the Muppet Bording House, well, one room in particular. Beauregard's. But a little practice, and Rowlf had figured to move the veiw from room to room.

Gonzo watched him. "This is all very fun," he said. "But we really don't know where we are yet," he said. "I mean, this machine, sure, it's been watching us, but why? And how?"

For answers...tune in to the next addition of What's On The Other Side...

 

[Whatever]

Ooooohh!
