Chapter 13

Everybody had woken up and found Daddie Dodo sleeping in the field with them.

"Oh, that was weird", said The Count, "I usually don't sleep without counting sheep."

"I thought Ernie told me that counting sheep doens't put you to sleep", said Gordon.

"Well, we found Daddie Dodo", said Big Bird.

"yup", said Daddie, "You found me."

"Good, let's get out of here", said Alan.

"Hey, how are we awake, anyway?", asked Elmo.

"Whenever smoke comes out of these flowers", explained Oscar, "They only put you to sleep for awhile, and then you become immune from their effect for a few hours after waking up."

"Well, now we've got to come back to Sesame Street and try to stop Huxly", said Grungetta.

They all got to Oscars trash can.

"You all scram", said Oscar, "I'm going to make sure that nothing is stolen."

They left Oscars can.

"Oh, no!", cried Oscar, "Huxley stole my mold bread, my broken records, my burnt CDs, my busted 8-tracks, and my special fur dye, which keeps me from going back to orange! oh, now I'll just stay in my can untill Huxley is stopped!"

Chapter 14

Everybody except Oscar had gotten out of the trash can.

"Elmo wonders if everything is still okay", said Elmo.

"Oh, here comes Forgetful Jones", said Herry, "let's see if he can tell us if anything was stolen."

"Hey, Forgetful", said Gordon, "Has anything been stolen?"

"Stolen?", said Forgetful Jones, "I forget."

"That's okay", said Daddie Dodo, "I forget too."

"So do I", said Mommie Dodo.

"Hey, will you walk us to the furry arms hotel?", asked Daddie, "we forget how to get there."

"So do I", said Forgetful Jones, "We have so much in common."

"like what?", asked Mommie Dodo.

"I forget", said Forgetful Jones.

"I'll show you to the hotel", said Maria.

Mel and Frazzle then walked down the street.

"Hey, mel! Frazzle!", said Cookie Monster, "Has anything been stolen?"

Mel said something in his usual gibberish, and then Frazzle said something in gibberish as well.

"oh, no!", said Big Bird.

"How terrible!", said The Count, "Now I;ve got to go home and count everything that's been stolen."

Grover then walekd by.

"Oh, you will not believe what just happened", said Grover.

"I think I already know", said Alan.

"it was horrible!", said grover, "This evil guy named Huxley stole whatever he could. He stole my super grover suit, so that I cannot save the world and stop him, and...wait! If this can't be a job for Super grover, then..."

Grover left the scene and then came back dressed as marshall grover, riding Fred The Wonder Horse.

"...this is a job for Marshall Grover!"

"And me, Fred The Wonder Horse!", said Fred.

Ernie, Bert, and many others ahd then arrived on the street.

"This guy stole my Rubber Duckie", cried Ernie.

"He stole my bottle caps and paper clips", cried Bert.

"I lost my piano", said Prarie dawn.

"He stole my brand new bicycle!", moaned Farley.

"My merchandise is stolen", said lefty, "Now I have nothing to sell."

"he stole everything from my cave", said Snuffy, "except for what I kept in my secret basement. Nobody but those in my household know how to get there."

"Huxley stole my Zoemobile and my tutu!", cried Zoe.

"huxley stole Zoes tutu?", thought Elmo, "well, then I guess this isn't a total loss!", giggled Elmo.

"But he didn't steal anything that belongs to Rocco", said Zoe.

"Zoe! For the last time, Rocco is not real! Right, guys?", shouted elmo.

"Uh, I don't want to talk about imaginary friends right now", said Snuffy as he left.

"huxwy stole my wee little chair", said Baby Bear.

"That's awful", said Goldilocks, "Now you don't have a chair for me to sit in when I visit."

"yeah, when you visit...uninvited", remarked Baby Bear.

"Well, I'm going to see what he stole from me", said Big Bird.

Big Bird went to his home.

"well, it doens't look like anything has been stolen", said Big Bird. Then, he looked at his nest. "oh, no!", cried Big Bird, "radar is gone!".

Then, he looked at his wall, and noticed that his picture of Mr. Hooper is gone.

"oh, no! Even worse! he stole my picture of Mr. Looper!" Big Bird then cried like he had never cried before.

Chapter 15

Huxley was going through his items, seeing what he had stolen.

"Let's see what I have managed to steal", said Huxley.

"One rubber duckie", huxley said as he squeked it, "a plate full of cookies, five cookie jars, an organ, some bottles of green hair spray, a stop sign, a collection of bottlecaps....", then a puzzled Huxley asked himself, "A collection of bottlecaps?"

Huxley decided to look in the newspaper to see if he was in the paper.

"oh, good", said Huxley, "i'm on the front page, and in every article. It's too bad I can't read. I wodner if I am on TV."

Huxley turned a stolen TV set on to see if there were any news reports about him.

First, he turned the TV on a channel where Kermit The Frog was reporting.

"Hi, ho, Kermit The Frog here, reporting about a major tradgedy. An evil crook named Huxley has started to steal things in town."

Huxley changed the channel, where Dr. Feel was on.

"Now", said Dr. feel to his guest, "Huxley has just stolen your lemonade stand, how do you feel?"

"I feel sad and cranky!", creid his guest.

"hey, and I've got his lemonade stand right here", Huxley said to himself. Huxley changed the channel.

"I am Guy Smiley and this is the Two Dollar Game, where you can win two dollars!", said Guy Smiley, "But unfortunately tonights show is canceled because Huxley stole the two dollars that I was going to give away as a prize, and now there is no prize."

"I'm glad I have a mention on every channel", said Huxley, who changed the station again to see Telly Monster reporting as Monster On The Spot.

"I am Telly Monster, your monster on the spot. It's a horrible day here on Sesame Street. Our prized possessions have been stolen. All of my triangles have been stolen, and so have my tuba and pogo stick. Now, I will talk to people and see what Huxley stole from them."

Telly went to the dodos.

"What has Huxley stolen from you?", asked Telly.

"We don't know", said Mommie Dodo, "We haven't been home."

"oh", said Telly, "thanks anyway."

"Your welcome", said daddie, "I think."

Telly went to Oscars trash can. The lid opened, but Oscar didn't come out.

"Go away!", shouted Oscar.

"I just wanted to ask you what Huxley stole from you", said Telly.

Fluffy stuck her trunk out of the can and sprayed Telly with water. Telly left.

"Oh, Elmo", said Telly, "Did Huxley steal anything from you?"

"Yes", said Elmo, "Huxley stole Elmos blanket, elmos crayons, elmos piano, and Elmos camcorter."

Telly then went to interview the count.

"Now, what has Huxley stolen from you?", Telly asked The Count.

"He stole one number of the day organ, two paintings of the number two, three couches, four telephones....", said the count, who went on with his counting.

The Dodos went to visit Big Bird, who was really depressed.

"hey, Big Dodo", said Donnie, "Do you wanna play ball?"

"No", cried Big Bird, "I want my stuff back!"

"What Stuff?", asked Marie.

"The stuff that Huxley has stolen", said Big Bird, "like my teddy bear, Radar, and my drawing of Mr. Stooper!" Big Bird started to cry harder.

"You can have my teddy bear", said Donnie, "I call him Klinger."

"I don't want your teddy bear", said Big Bird, "I want my own back, and I want to be left alone."

The Dodos left.

"I wonder what's wrong with him", thought Daddie Dodo.

The Count was still counting things of his that were stolen.

"...forty cake recipes, forty one pictures of my family, forty two bats, forty three tea cups..", counted the Count.

"oh, I'm sorry", said telly, "But time is up. Tune in tommorrow when The Count continues to count the things of his that were stolen by Huxley."

Chapter 16

The Dodos went to Hoopers Store.

"What will you have?", asked Alan.

"We'll have four orders of worms", said daddie Dodo.

"I already told you yesterday....", said Alan.

"I am not yesterday, I am Daddie Dodo", interrupted Daddie.

"yeah", said the other Dodos.

"look", said Alan, trying to keep his patience, "yesterday, you ordered worms, I told you that we don't serve worms....."

a family of worms had just walked in as Alan was talking.

"You don't serve worms?", said the father worm, "Then we will go eat soemwhere else". The worms left.

"hey, a family of worms", said Donnie.

"Let's catch them", said Marie.

The dodos all left, chasing after the worm family.

Meanwhile, Grungetta, Osvaldo, Irvine, and some other grouches all went to visit Oscar.

"oskie", said grungetta, "we've all come to visit."

"Well, go away!", shouted Oscar, who was still inside his trash can, refusing to come out, "i do not want you to see me when I turn orange."

"Oh, Oscar is angry", remarked Osvaldo.

"Angry!", repeated Irvine.

"let's make him angrier and bring more company to him", suggested Grungetta.

Within minutes, Bruno and the grouchkateers all came over, as did Telly, Susan, Gordon, Bob, Luis, Maria, and Proffessor Hastings.

"hey, oscar!", said Telly, "Everybody is here!"

"Well, scram!", shouted Oscar.

"Why won't you come out of your can?", asked Bob.

"because my fur spray has been stolen", said Oscar, "And I do not want to be seen with orange fur."

"I thougth you told us that your fur turned to orange because you were in the swamp", said Susan.

"yeah, it did", said Oscar, "But I have been using this spray so that I could stay green."

"wait a minute!", said Maria, "I don't ever remember you having orange fur."

"neither do I", said Luis.

"It was before you moved here", said Gordon.

"Well, let me talk to you about color", said Proffessor hastings, "It does not matter what color you are. People should not be judged by the color of their skin. There are all kinds of colors."

Various people and muppets of many different colors showed up.

Proffessor Hastings continued his lecture. "There is red, green, orange, blue, black, white, pink, gold, silver, lavender,....." Proffessor hastings then fell asleep as more and more people were showing up.

"see, oscar, it doens't matter what color your fur or skin is", said Luis.

"And some of us have seen you with orange fur before", said Gordon.

"Yeah, but ever since I was green, I haven't ever wanted to be orange again", said Oscar.

Kermit The frog showed up.

"You know, Oscar", said kermit, "it's not easy being green."

"it's also not easy being any color", said oscar.

"Couldn't you just buy more?", asked Alan.

"No, he can't", said lefty, "My supply has been stolen."

"Well, there you go", said Herbert Birdsfoot, "Even if your supply wasn't stolen, you would have ran out and turned orange anyway."

"Shut up!", shouted Oscar.

Gordon then snapped. "okay, that does it! I'm going in!"

Gordon then opened the trash can lid and went inside. Telly, Luis, Grungetta, and Gina all went inside as well.

Anybody who was standing outside of the trash can could hear everything that was going on. There were crashes heard. It got so wild that the trash can fell and rolled down the street.

"hey", said Prarie Dawn, "if that can can come off that crate, and there is no hole, then how can they all fit in there?"

"Just pretend that it doesn't even matter", said Betty Lou.

benny rabbit then arrived. "Oh, I hear a great fight! It's too bad I can't see it."

"Do you like TV?", asked Harvey Kneeslapper.

"Of course!", said benny.

Harvey slapped a T onto bennys stomache. "here's your T", said Harvey, "And heres your V", continued harvey as he slapped a V onto Bennys stomach and laughed hysterically.

"I wonder why Huxley didn't steal his letters", thought Benny.

Eventually, Gordon got out of oscars can, pulling oscar out.

"hey, what are you doing, Gordon?", asked oscar.

"Look, Oscar", said Gordon, "You shouldn't insult us, and you are still green."

"So, I'll turn back to orange soon", said oscar.

"look, Oscar, nobody will care what color you are", said Gordon.

"Well, fine", said Oscar, "But I don't want to feel accepted."

Chapter 17

Oscar was feeling a little bit sore after his fight with Gordon, so he had Bruno carry him around Sesame Street. Gordon, feeling guilty about forcing Oscar out of his can, decided to go along with Oscar and Bruno, even though Oscar didn't want Gordon with him.

They walked around the corner, wehre they encountered the Dodos.

"i'm so proud of you, father", said Donnie.

"Yeah, it's about time you found us some worms", said Marie.

"Well, as long as you don't eat Slimey", said oscar, "Who is out of town untill you all leave, whenever that is."

"When are you all leaving, anyway?", asked Gordon.

"Our plane leaves in five days, I think", said Daddie.

"I thought it was four days", said Mommie.

"well, I thought it was five", said Daddie.

"I thought it was nine past eight", said Marie.

"Well, we've got to go back to our hotel and sleep", said Daddie.

They left.

"I can't wait 'till they leave", said Oscar.

"That's not a very nice thing to say", said Gordon.

Bruno shook his head, agreeing with Gordon.

"Well, you shouldn't be so nice", complained Oscar.

The next day, Maria, Gina, Elmo, and a Dinger went to Hoopers Store for some lunch.

"I hope that Big Bird is okay", said Alan, "He hasn't come here to eat since we all got back from Grouchland"

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen Big Bird since then, either", said maria, "have any of you seen Big Bird?"

"No", said Elmo.

"No", said Gina.

The dinger shook his head no.

"That's strange", said Elmo, "Big Bird didn't even come to the street when Gordon and Oscar had their fight. If he were home at the time, Elmo is sure that Big Bird would have came to see what was going on."

"Well, come on", said Gina, "We should check on Big Bird and make sure he is alright."

"I'm sure he is", said Alan, "it's not like he got kidnapped by some carnival men, right?"

"And Elmo is sure that Huxley didn't kidnap him", said Elmo.

All of them except for Alan left Hoopers Store to visit big Bird. They ran into the dodos first.

"hey, have you all seen Big Bird lately?", asked Gina.

"Not since yesterday", said Daddie.

"We visited him, but he seemed to be a bit upset", said Mommie.

They hurried to Big Birds nest, and sure enough, he was still crying.

"Well, at least he didn't get kidnapped by Huxley", said Elmo.
