Nick

Well, I don't currently have any more plans for cameos by any more performers, web designers, toy makers, or anything else. The only other cameos I have planned right now are by characters from Sesame Street.

Chapter 22

Back at Sesame Street, Elmo, Zoe, telly, and Rosita were talking to marshall Grover and Fred The Wonder Horse.

"so", said Rosita, "Have you found out where Huxley is hiding yet?"

"Nope", said Grover, "This is harder than I thought."

"Thats because you only looked on this street, around the corner, and in the alley of Charlies Resturaunt", said Fred.

"Well, has any of our stuff been found?", asked telly.

"No", said Grover, "I am soooo embarrased..."

"well, huxley has stolen some more stuff lately", said Rosita.

"yeah", said Zoe, "He stole my moms paper plates and my dads favortie brown derby."

"He stole Elmos binoccolars", said Elmo.

"He stole my triangle encyclopedia!", whined Telly, "we'll never get anything back!"

Don Music arrived.

"That's right", said Don Music, "He stole my piano and sheet music, and when I bought anothe rpiano, he stole that, too!"

Don then went to a table.

"Oh, I'll never get them back!", said Don Music, who then proceeded to bang his head on the table, "Never! (bang) Never! (bang) Never! (bang)"

"Hey, Don", said Gordon, "Don't bang your head on that."

"Yeah", said Telly, "They just allowed you to come back to Sesame Street. We don't need you to get taken off Sesame Street again."

"Are you sure we're on Sesame Street?", said Sherlock Hemlock.

"Of course we're sure", said Gordon, "Why do you ask?"

"Well, I don't see any street signs", said Sherlock.

They all looked. The sesame street sign and lampost was now missing.

"Oh, no!", cried Telly, "Now if somebody asks someone if they can tell them how to get to Sesame Street, they won't know because the sign is missing."

"Calm down, Telly", said Gordon.

Telly then looked at oscars trash can area and noticed that Oscar was missing.

"Oh, no!", shouted Telly, "Oscars can is missing! Huxley stole Oscars trash can. Now Oscar has no home."

Just then, Bruno carried oscar back home.

"Good walk, Bruno", said oscar, "Lot's of people were sad."

"Oscar! You're back!", shouted Telly.

"Telly thought that Huxley had stolen your trash can", said Elmo.

"Of course he didn't", groaned Oscar, "He doesn't steal everything."

"Maybe we should all see if Big Bird has found out where Huxley is", said Elmo.

Elmo, telly, Rosita, Zoe, and Gordon all went to Big Birds home, and found that Big Bird is missing.

"oh, no, Huxley must have kidnapped Big Bird", screamed Telly.

"Relax", said Gordon, "Big Bird probably just left his nest or something."

They left Big Birds home. Oscars can was back on it's crate, with a poster attached.

"I can't beleive it", moaned Oscar, "Some guy put this poster on my trash can advertising a carnival." Oscar then went into his trash can. "I'm staying here for the rest of the day", shouted Oscar from inside his can.

They all looked at the poster.

"it's the Sleaze Brothers Fun fair", said Gordon, "and it's in town tonight."

"hey, weren't they the ones who put Big Bird in that cage?", asked Telly.

Then, without hesitation, they all ran to find the carnival and save Big Bird.

The Klinger reference was awesome. Was shocked to hear someone on Sesame Street say "Shut up". Don't think its happened before. I believe you broke new ground. I am enjoying the story

"Shut Up" was actually said by Sam Sleaze in Follow That Bird. After the Sleaze brothers got pulled over by the cop, and it seemed like they would probably be going to jail (or at least court), Sid started crying, the state trooper said "be a man!", Sid said "I don't wanna be a man", and Sam yelled "Shut up, Sid, shut up!"

Also, according to a script in the book Sesame Street Unpaved, the skit where Bad Bart went to town to give somebody what he deserved, somebody (I can't remember if it was Bad Bart or somebody else) said "shut up". Of course, many of the scripts in that book had some of the words wrong and many scripts had some lines missing. The script for the episode where everybody finally saw Mr. Snuffleupagus didn't include the part where Phil Donahue covering this event. The script for the Sesame Street news skit with Rupunzel also didn't include many of Kermits lines.

Speaking of the Rupunzel edition of Sesame Street news, I have read somewhere that the skit originally ended with prince Charming saying "shut up" to somebody, but was later cut from various showings (including Big Birds Storytime). I am not sure if this is true or just a rumor.

Chapter 23

Gordon, Elmo, Telly, Rosita, and Zoe all took a bus to the fun fair.

"Wow, the bus is a fun vehicle to ride on", said Elmo.

"Yeah", said Zoe, "But it's too bad I don't have my Zoemobile to take me."

"Hey, why are we taking a bus, anyway?", asked Rosita.

"Because my car is in the shop", said Gordon.

"makes sense", said a child who was evesdropping on them. Nobody knew who this kid was.

"Whose child is this?", asked Gordon.

"Oh, you want to sing "Whose Child Is This?", asked Elmo, who then began to sing.

Meanwhile, it was getting close to time for the fun fair to begin.

"Well, it looks like we are doing good for our first day", said Sid.

"I know", said Sam, "and look at all of the celebrities who have come here."

The celebrities were coming in, one by one. The numbers 2 and 3 came in together.

"Hello", said the number 2, "I'm 2, and this is 3."

"hewwo", said the number 3.

"We made reservations," said the number 2.

"Dats right", said number 3, "I gid to sit in seat number free and he sits in seat number doo".

"Oh, right this way", said Sam, "And I hope that yur speech improves."

"What speech?", asked a puzzled number 2.

"I dunt know wad hes tawking about", said the number 3.

"Hey, heres another celebrity", said Sid.

"hello", shouted Guy Smiley, "I am americas favortie game show host, Guy Smiley! Hand me my ticket."

"okay, that will be five dollars", said Sam.

"Three dollars?", asked Guy, "I didn't knwo you guys were charging for tickets."

"I didn't know that celebrities were entitled to not make reservations", said Sam.

Meanwhile, due to terrible traffic, the bus was hardly gettign anywhere.

"oh, no", shouted telly, "This traffic jam is preventing us from getting there. Big Bird will never be rescued, and it will be somebodys fault."

"yeah, this traffic sure is bad", said Gordon, "I'll call the police on my cell phone and have them investigate the fun fair."

Gordon took his cell phone out of his pocket, and started to dial.

"oh, no", said Gordon, "The batteries are dead. Hey, does anybody on this bus have a cell phone?"

Nobody else on the bus had a cell phone.

"i can help", said The Amazing Mumford.

"mumford, I didn't know you were on this bus", said Rosita.

"Well, I know of a wonderful trick where I can instantly recharge your cell phone battery", said Mumford.

Mumford waved his wand and said, "A La Zoocus Sandwhiches!"

Unfortunately, it only caused the cell phone to turn into dust.

"oops! Wrong spell", said Mumford.

"Well, can you at least make this traffic go faster?", asked Telly.

"okay", said Mumford, who waved his wand again and said the magic words, "A La Traffic Sandwhiches!"

This spell actually made traffic go by a little faster.

"yay!", cheered everybody on the bus.

"We are going to rescue Big Bird now", said Elmo.

However, The Amazing Mumfords spell only made traffic speed improve by 10 percent, and soon they were stuck in bad trafic again.

Chapter 24

It was almost showtime. The Sleaze brothers moved the cages onto the stage, behind the curtain.

"Now, remember", said Sam Sleaze, "When I raise the curtains, you all sing."

Sam left to get introduce them.

"Will we ever get out of here?", asked Donnie.

"I don't think so", said Big Bird.

"But why not?", asked marie, "it isn't nice to leave us stranded here forever."

"Not everybody is nice", said Mommie.

"That's right", said Mr. Snuffleupagus.

"If they won't let us out of here", said Daddie, "Then why are we going to sing?"

"Hmm", thought Big Bird, "That's a good question."

Sam Sleaze went on-stage.

"And now, ladis and gentlemen, here are larger than life birds and a mammoth, here to sing a song!", announced Sam Sleaze.

The curtains raised. The music played. But Big Bird, Snuffy, and the Dodos remained silent. The audience staretd booing.

"When are they going to start singing?", asked an audience member.

"I want my money back!", yelled another audience member.

"Hey, birds, mammoth!", shouted Sid, "Sing, already."

"No", said Big Bird.

"What?", asked Sid.

"We are not going to sing", said Mr. Snuffleupagus.

"Why not?", asked Sid.

"Why should we?", asked Daddie, "after all, you're not going to let us go home."

Sam and Sid started t cringe. They knew that they were ruined. The audience was getting rowdy.

"What'll we do?", asked Sid, "The audience will probably call the cops on us." Sid started to cry.

Sam was also depressed, but then he looked at the audience. He saw the many letters, numbers, monsters, honkers, dingers, martians, people, cows, frogs, and other things in the audience, and realized that These birds and a snuffleupagus are not any more unusual than anything in real life.

"Okay, okay", said Sam, "You're all free to go. Sid, get the keys."

Sid went to get the keys to the cages, but then realized that they were gone.

"Sam", said Sid, "I can't."

"Why not?", asked Sam.

"The keys are missing", said Sid.

"Where could they be?", asked Sam.

Just then, Huxleys helicopter was flying through the fun fair.

"Ha!", said Huxley, who was speaking through his microphone, "I've got your keys, and plenty of your other stuff, too!"

"We must stop him!", shouted Sam.

Sam and Sid went to their truck, chasing after Huxleys helicopter.

Gordon, Elmo, Zoe, Rosita, Telly, and Mumford then arrived.

"There you are", said Gordon.

"Help!", cried Big Bird, "Huxley has stolen the keys to these cages."

"I'll get you out", said Mumford, "A La Brussle Sprout Television Stations!"

But instead of getting them free, these magic words produced a new car.

"Come on", said Gordon, "We'll chase Huxley in this car."

They all got in the car and drove off.

However, Cookie Monster was at the fun fair. Big Bird saw Cookie Monster.

"Hey, Cookie", said Big Bird, "Could you help us get out of here?"

"of course", said Cookie Monster, "Me hungry".

Cookie Monster then ate the bars, freeing them.

"That's a nice appetite", said Daddie Dodo.

Chapter 25

The gang was in their car, chasing Huxley. Gordon was driving, Mumford was in the front seat, and Elmo, Zoe, Rosita, and Telly were in the back.

"Mumford", said Gordon, "Use your noggin and try to think of some magic words that actually work."

"Noggin, eh?", said Mumford, "A La Sprout-Noggin-Mathman Sandwhiches!"

However, instead of that helping them, it just caused the roof of the car to fly off.

Meanwhile, Marshall Grover and Fred The Wonder Horse were watching.

"Hey, marshall Grover", said Fred, "Isn't that Huxleys helicopter?'

"Of course", said grover, "let's go!"

They chased after the helicopter. Grover was swinging his lasso around, threw the lasso, and it got stuck in a wheel of Huxleys helicopter. It sent grover flying in the air.

"I am starting to feel some weight", thought Huxley.

Grover was holding onto the rope really tight, and he climbed to the helicopter, feeling exhausted by time he got up there.

"I made it", thought Grover.

"Well, Sam I think we should stop conning people", said Sid Sleaze.

"I was thinking the same", said Sam.

"Maybe we should try honesty to sell tickets", said Sid.

"But if we used honesty", thought Sam, "How would we get people to buy tickets?"

Grover made it inside the helicopter.

"Huxley, you'd be under arrest", said Grover, "If you hadn't stolen my handcuffs."

"yeah", said Huxley, "And ya ain't got no weapons, either! How are you going to stop me?"

Grover thought for nine seconds. "like this!"

Grover began tickling Huxley while he was driving. It caused Huxley to not see where he was going, and he crashed his helicopter into a tree, miraculously not exploding when he crashed.

"Oh, that sure was dangerous", said Grover, "What was I thinking?"

The Sleaze brothers stopped by the tree, as did Gordon and the gang, and many other people who were on the look out for Huxley.

"Well, Huxley, it looks like you were defeated again", said Elmo.

"Yeah, and with a wave of my wand I will defeat you!", said Mumford, "A La Flatbread sandwhiches!"

Unfortunately, this spell caused his wand to shoot away from his hand, and Huxley caught the magic wand.

"A Ha!", said Huxley, "I've got the wand now!"

"Oh, no", cried telly.

"We'll never be successful now", cried Sid.

"Why don't you just give it all back?", said Sam.

"Yeah, we learned our lesson, why won't you?", asked Sid.

"i'll never give it back!", said Huxley.

"Well, whatever you do, there is one spell that you definately shouldn't use", said Mumford, "Don't ever use the magic words, 'Goody Goody Bad Boy Sandwhiches'."

"What are you doing, Mumford?", asked Gordon, "you know he'll do it."

"That's right, I will", yelled Huxley, "Goody Goody Bad Boy Sandhwiches!"

However, the wand then zapped huxleys eyes.

"What's going on?", asked Rosita.

"I tricked him", said Mumford, "Those magic words reverse what he was going to do. Now he is going to give all of our stuff back, and he'll even remember exactly who each item belongs to."

Huxley then went through his bags, givign back the things that belonged to those who were there.

"here are your keys, your balloons, and your cotton candy", said Huxley, who gave them back to the Sleaze brothers.

"Thank you", said Sam.

"And here is your blanket, your moo bunny, and your crayons", Huxley said to Elmo, "And here's your wand", Huxley said to Mumford.

"You sure are generous", said Mumford.

"But you never know how these spells will turn out", said Gordon, "How were you sure that this spell was the right one?"

"Oh, just pretend it doesn't matter", said Mumford.

Betty Lou then appeared. "Hey, that's my line!"

Huxley gave everything back to those whow ere around him, and then he went to the homes of those who had their things stolen.

He went to Ernie and Berts apartment.

"Here is your Rubber Duckie, your Soap Dish, and your yoyo", said Huxley to Ernie.

"Oh, thank you", said Ernie.

"And here are your paper clips and bottle caps", said Huxley to Bert.

"oh, wow, thanks", said Bert, "Would you like to stay for some oatmeal?"

And last but not least, he went to Big Birds home.

"And here is the last of the things I stole, your drawing", said Huxley.

Big Bird was happy to finally have his picture of mr. Hooper back.

"Welcome back mr. Looper", said Big Bird.

Huxley went back to grouchland and Big Bird went to the main part of Sesame Street to say good bye to the Dodos. Everybody was on the street.

"Good bye, Dodos", said Big Bird.

"It was a pleasent visit", said Bert.

"Good riddence", said oscar.

"Come back, soon", said Alan.

"yeah", snapped Benny, "But not too soon."

"Bye, everyone", said Daddie Dodo.

"We'll try to come back someday", said Mommie.

And then they left for home.

The End.

now that this story is over

Now that I have finished this story, I would like to point out some of the refferences.

Kevin is a refference to kevin Clash.

Caroll is a refference to Caroll Spinney, and his split personality (changing from being unusually cheerful to being grouchy) is a refference to him performing Big Bird and Oscar.

The Moo Bunny is a refference to Elmo saves Christmas.

The soap dish is a refference to Christmas Eve On Sesame Street.

Danny and his Tough Pigs is a refference to Danny Horn and his muppet website, Tough Pigs. The names of the tough pigs, Ken and Lilly, is a refference to Kenneth Lilly, who was in charge of production of the Mupept action figures.

When Big Bird talks about things that could be worse, he lists things that have happened to him. I'll have to take a look back to see what I refferenced there, but I beleive that I have refferenced the hurricane episodes.

Yay! Good Story! On the Snoozeometer ( S&W: From the Balcony) it was a 9/10!
