CHAPTER 2
"Everybody's lover, everybody's brother, I wanna be your lifetime friend, crazy as a rocket, nothin' in my pocket, I keep it at the rainbow's end," Dr. Teeth sang with his gravelly voice as his skilled hands moved with ferocious agility on his electronic keyboard. In the background, Janice and Floyd were strumming their guitars, along with Zoot sleepily playing his golden sax They were still driving to the airport, and Lips had recommended a while ago, "How about a little travellin' music?"
Kermit was anxiously checking his watch every now and then, making sure he wouldn't miss the flight. He wasn't at all perturbed by the chaos going on. He was used to it, and, no matter how loud, noisy, rowdy, clamorous, blustering, or cacophonous they were, they were family. From pigs to bears to penguins to... Weirdos, they were a (somewhat dysfunctional) family.
"Fact is there's nothin out there you can't do," Floyd and Janice harmonized. " Yeah, even Santa Claus believes in you."
Besides the booming rock of the Electric Mayhem, Bunsen was explaining to everyone what his latest invention was as Sam the Eagle slapped his forehead as, to his chagrin, Gonzo triple-lutzed on a chair while juggling electrical wires to the tune of "Merry Go Around Broke Down".
When they finally got there, it was 3:27. Their flight was taking off at 3:30. When Kermit realized this, he urgently told the Muppets to make haste.
That set the bomb off. Most of the Muppets bit off more then they could chew and made a grab for so many suitcases and trunks they were lying on the parking lot in a writhing, tangled heap in a matter of seconds. The columns of luggage tipped over and had to be picked up.
3:28. They skidded into the airport and sprinted to the security check.
3:28:50. They were held back for a while when Gonzo's cannon and Chef's blunderbuss was confiscated. They eventually got past, with Chef angrily shouting in Mock Swedish.
3:29. They made it to the gates.
They just got near the tunnel that connects the airplane to the airport when they heard, "ALL PEOPLE, PREPARE FOR TAKEOFF."
They saw the plane moving, in its incipient stage of flying.
"Everyone JUMP!!!!" Kermit shrieked. Everyone lept from the tunnel edge and Kermit was the first to get to the plane. However, most of the others were hanging on for dear life as they clutched the plane's entrance's door, forming a large chain.
"Ay ay ay..." Kermit sighed, but couldn't help chuckling a bit.

After he got everyone onboard, they all sat down at their individual seats.
The stewardess, a young and vibrant looking lady offered, "May I get you something?"
Pepe's eyes nearly popped out when he noticed her.
"No, but maybe I could get jou somezing, okay?" he flirted.
His response was Rizzo creaming him with a pillow.
"What ze heck? Why did jou do that?!" the king prawn exclaimed.
"If I didn't, I'm sure you would've melted like ice cream, and dat's true," he retorted furiously.
Few rows ahead, Animal was being chained to his seat by Floyd.
"Now Animal, behave," Floyd ordered.
"ANIMAL BEHAVE! BEHAVE!!!" Animal screamed as he went berserk.
"Animal! Sit! Heel! Down, Animal, down!"
As Kermit glimpsed at the seats behind him, with boomerang fish sailing through the air, he noticed Gonzo and the Swedish Chef got their items after all. He shook his head, smiled, and whispered, "You know Fozzie, I think this vacation will be quite nice."
"Yeah Kermit."
Kermit smiled and eventually drifted off to sleep, thinking about piles of luggage and cannons and pillow fights.

"My plan is gradually piecing itself together... I will have control of the vast powers of the Rainbow Emblem!!" a mysterious voice cackled maliciously. "Soon the abilities of the Metachromonians will be bestowed upon me!!!!!"
