(I am in the theatre room with Jack Atlas, Clay, Kimiko, and Isabella, who is covered in bruises with a sling over her left arm watching The Polar Express when Gloyd and Rancis walk in)
Me: Rancis, Gloyd.
Rancis: Hey, Archer.
Isabella: How could you, Orangeboar?
Gloyd: Me? What did I do?
Isabella: Thanks to you, Bella beat me senseless until Archer cleared things up and told her what you said.
Gloyd: Hey, I said I was sorry.
Clay: Well, you're going to have to do better than just saying sorry, partner.
Gloyd: Like what?
Me: I'll figure out your penalty after the movie.

The sun is setting in the dunes of Toon Egypt and a lone figure on a camel is seen heading toward a town as he begins to sing on the way there.
Oh I come from a land,
From a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where it's flat and immense
And the heat is intense
It's barbaric, but hey, it's home
When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down, stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night!
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
are hotter than hot
in a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
'Neath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes.
Night has already fallen when the traveler reached his destination as the camel he rode on dropped to the ground in exhaustion as the traveler, now identified as Korin, slides off the exhausted animal and takes a bow before noticing the readers.
"Ah, Salaam and good evening my worthy friends." Korin greeted with a smile. "Please, please come closer…" The camera zooms in until it hits Korin in the face. "Too close, you're a little too close." The camera zooms back out to a close-up. "There. Welcome to Toon Agrabah, city of mystery, of enchantment, and the finest merchandise this side of the river Jordan, on sale today, come on down!" The cat suddenly sets up his stand with various items in stock. He starts showing the reader an old hookah. "Heh-heh. Look at this. Combination hookah and coffee maker, also make Julienne fries." He pulls out a potato from his pocket, places it under the hookah and for reasons unknown, fries come out when he lifts it back up and soon wipes them off the stand. "Will not break…" He continues as he lightly taps the hookah on the table. "Will not…" But to his disbelief, it falls apart. "It broke." Korin then pulls out a white box after throwing the broken hookah aside. "Ooh! Look at this! I have never seen one of these intact before. This is the famous Dead Sea Tupperware. Listen." He pries a corner open and makes a raspberry noise. "Ah, still good." Suddenly, the camera pans to the right, making Korin give chase until he caught up with it. "Wait, don't go! I see that you're only interested in the exceptionally rare. I think then, you would be most rewarded to consider… this." He pulls out a gold oil lamp from the sleeve of his cloak. "Do not be fooled by its commonplace appearance. Like so many things, it is not what is outside, but what is inside, that counts." The camera pans again, this time to the left and slower. Korin rushes to catch up with it. "This is no ordinary lamp! It once changed the course of a young boy's life. A young boy who liked this lamp was more than what he seemed. A diamond in the rough. Perhaps you would like to hear the tale?" Korin then poured some shiny sand from the lamp and into his paw. Korin then threw the sand into the sky. "It begins on a dark night, where a dark man waits with a dark purpose."
The sand Korin threw into the sky forms into a starry nightscape. The camera then tilts down to find the royal advisor, Murdoc sitting on his horse and Chicken sitting beside him. A streetwise thief named Eddy rides up to the pair.
"You… are late." Murdoc sneered.
"A thousand apologies, O patient one." Eddy apologized.
"You have it, then?" Murdoc asked.
"It cost me a few scams, but it was worth it." Eddy replied as he pulls out half of a scarab medallion. Murdoc reaches out to get it, but Eddy yanks it away. "Ah, ah, ah! First, the treasure!" Chicken then squawks as he pecks the medallion out of his hand "Ouch!"
"Trust me, my pungent friend. You'll get what's coming to you." Murdoc said.
"What's coming to you! Awk!" Chicken repeated as Murdoc pulls out the second half of the medallion. As soon as he connects them together, the scarab medallion begins to glow. Finally, it flies out of his hands, scaring the horses, and takes off toward the dunes.
"Quickly! Follow the trail!" Murdoc commanded as they all give chase after the medallion until it stops at a large dune. The medallion then separates into two and they plunge into the dune. After a few moments, the dune begins to rise and form into a gigantic lion head, with the glowing points that are the scarab halves serving as its eyes. "Finally, after all my years of searching, the Cave of Wonders!"
"Awk! Cave of Wonders!" Chicken repeated.
"By the Gods!" Eddy gasped.
"Now, remember! Bring me the lamp." Murdoc informed the thief. "The rest of the treasure is yours, but the lamp is mine!" Eddy dismounts his horse and approaches the lion's mouth, acting as the cave's entrance. He chuckles lowly as he goes.
"Awk, the lamp! Awk, the lamp!" Chicken clucked until he and Murdoc are alone. He then whispers to him in normal English. "Jeez, where'd you dig this bozo up?
"Shhh!" Murdoc shushed Chicken with a finger to his mouth. Eddy reaches the cave's entrance, but is blown away by a roar of the cave's speaking.
"Who disturbs my slumber?" The cave questioned.
"It is I, Eddy, a humble thief." Eddy answered to the cave.
"Know this: Only one may enter here." The cave warned. "One whose worth lies far within. A diamond in the rough." Eddy turns to Murdoc with a questionable look.
"What are you waiting for? Go on!" Murdoc commanded. Eddy starts to hesitate as he moves his left foot inside the cave. Completely anxious, he plants his foot down and so far, nothing happened. Relieved, he slowly continues his trek until he hears a second roar. He turns around to escape, but it was too late as the lion's mouth slams shut and the dune collapses back to normal, trapping Eddy inside. Only Murdoc, Chicken, and the separated halves of the medallion remain.
"Seek thee out, the diamond in the rough." The cave called out once more before its booming voice faded away.
"I can't believe it. I just don't believe it. We'll never get a hold of that stupid lamp! Just forget it." Chicken complained. "Look at me. I'm so angry, I'm molting." He jumps up to Murdoc's shoulder.
"Patience, Chicken. Patience. Eddy was clearly less than worthy." Murdoc replied.
"Oh, there's a big surprise." Chicken said with total sarcasm. "That's an incred—I think I'm going to have a heart attack and die from not surprise! What're we going to do? We got a big problem here, a big prob-" He ranted until Murdoc pinched his beak shut.
"Yes, we do. Only one may enter." Murdoc said, remembering the cave's warning. "I must find this one, this… diamond in the rough."
(After the movie, I am outside in the rain watching Gloyd scrub away any tire tracks left on the racetracks)
Gloyd: This is ridiculous… How long do I have to do this?
Me: Just until all this rain stops.
Gloyd: (groans) This just isn't fair. I already told Isabella I was sorry.
Me: I guess it wasn't enough.
(I notice Gloyd sigh in disappointment as he continued to scrub the track)
Me: Tell you what, I'll make it up to you. Do a good job and I'll set you up on a New Year's date… with Taffyta.
(Taffyta's room, the strawberry racer is reading a book when she suddenly sneezes. She looks around and shrugs it off)
Gloyd: No way, you serious?
Me: As serious can be, Gloyd.
(This lifted up his spirits as Gloyd starts to scrub the tire tracks vigorously)
Me: Well, that got him all fired up, despite all this rain. Well, I better get this prologue up and running. You readers may RRF if you choose and Happy Holidays to you all. Archer out.
