Author's Note:

Time for the newest Chan Clan story and the last installment in this arc. Bout time too. I've been wanting to do this story for quite sometime.

Now without further ado, on with the show!

Our next installment in the "Amazing Chan Clan" saga begins in the Chan Clan house, where we see the siblings enjoying a nice afternoon, well...almost everyone. Mimi and Scooter's favorite show, "Peter Potamous' Playhouse" was on.

"Hola muchachos!" said Peter Potamous.

"Hola, Peter!" Mimi and Scooter said happily.

"Hey kids, do you know what kind of day this is?"

"A special day!" said Mimi and Scooter.

"That's right" nodded Peter "And here's a very special song for my very special friends. I love you, you love me, it's a special day you see. Yes we're all very special and you're my very special friend, you're so special I'll say it again. Special, special, special, special, special..."

Mimi and Scooter started singing along to the hippo's song, which was sung to the tune of "This Old Man". However, not everyone was enjoying the show. Henry and Stanley both looked bored and extremely annoyed.

"Ugh" Henry grunted "Stanley, I can't get that stupid song out of my head!"

"What'd you say, Henry?" Stanley asked as he covered his ears "I can't hear you, I'm trying to get that stupid song out of my head!"

Suzie and Alan, likewise, were annoyed by the television show.

"Oh my God!" Suzie grunted as she tried to cancel out the sound by putting her fingers in her ears "Make it stop! Make it stop!"

"I can't hear you Suzie, I'm trying to make it stop!" Alan said as he put his fingers in his ears as well.

"I can't take it anymore!" Anne angrily shouted as she covered her ears as well.

"Can we change the channel?" Tom asked as he covered his ears as well.

"Good idea!" shouted Henry.

Henry picked up the remote control and changed the channel to a nice family sitcom.

"Hey!" Scooter exclaimed as he noticed the channel change.

"What's going on?" asked Mimi.

"No more Peter Potamus!" Henry annoyingly shouted to the kids.

Scooter and Mimi then started to cry and scream.

"Maybe that wasn't a good idea." Tom said at second thought of his suggestion.

"What makes you say that?" shouted Stanley.

"The screaming!" Tom deadpanned.

"Don't cry, don't cry" Stanley said as he picked up Mimi and Scooter "It'll be okay. Okay?"

Mimi and Scooter continued crying and screaming.

"Guys, maybe we should change the show back" suggested Stanley.

"Are you nuts?" asked Henry "I'd rather be thrown into an active volcano than watch that pile of crud!"

"Thanks, but no thanks." Suzie deadpanned at Stanley's suggestion.

"Yeah, the last thing I want to hear is that annoying hippo and his stupid songs!" added Tom.

"Well it's the only way that they'll shut up, so I guess I have no choice" Stanley shouted as the two youngest kids kept crying.

Stanley grabbed the remote and changed the show back, which instantly made Mimi and Scooter stop crying.

"Look guys, Peter Potamus!" Stanley grinned.

"Hooray!" the two preschoolers cheered.

The older siblings groaned as the annoying music continued. Eventually, the show ended.

"Oh thank God" Henry sighed of relief "I thought I'd never make it"

"Yeah" Susie added "I could've exploded if I heard that 'Special Song' one more time"

"Anyways, let's see what's on the news, guys." Tom suggested as he changed the channel.

"Good idea." Stanley said.

The kids then changed the channel to the news.

"Welcome to HB News with your anchors, Reginald Livingston Segal and Bob!" said the announcer "Brought to you by, U-Boat Bites. Now available in zesty ranch flavor"

"Here we go..." Alan remarked.

Reginald cleared his throat as the newscast began "Welcome to HB News. I'm Reginald Livingston Segal, your roving reporter, here with my good friend, Bob"

"Thanks Reginald" said Bob "Glad to be here, Reginald"

"You said it, Bob" Reginald said enthusiastically "As you may know, five youths from Crystal Cove have recently been reported missing these past couple of days and no one has been able to find them. Earlier today, we caught up with Ms. Bubbles Jackson's parents, Glen and Stacy and Ms. Shelly Sanchez's mother, Marilyn for an exclusive interview!"

"Five missing youths from Crystal Cove?" Suzie asked.

"Yes" Reginald nodded "Five missing youths from Crystal Cove. Here's the exclusive interview, right now!"

The image then cut to a video of Bubbles' parents and Shelly's mother being interviewed by Bob.

"So Mr and Mrs. Jackson and Ms. Sanchez, please tell me about your children and how you've been holding up since they were reported missing" Bob said to the girls' parents.

The Chans looked at each other as Mrs. Jackson was the first to respond.

"Bubbles isn't usually like this, it's not like her to just go to school and never return" she said "I mean, it's not right"

"Don't worry honey, we'll find her" Glen said as he tried to soothe the worried Stacy.

"And you, Ms. Sanchez, explain yourself and explain what might've happened that caused your only daughter to vanish mysteriously" Bob said to Marilyn.

Marilyn was afraid to speak, but she knew she had to if she was going to make it through this somewhat, humiliating and tragic time "Shelly's my only daughter and the only family I have. She wouldn't just walk out on me. I don't know what happened, but she would never do that me. I'd give anything to have her back..."

The siblings could see Marilyn trying her best to hold back her tears.

"Gee, I sure feel sorry for Ms. Sanchez." Suzie said.

"Yeah, it must be hard having someone you love go away so suddenly" said Tom "Right Stanley?"

"Whatever..." Stanley deadpanned, the tone in his voice indicating that he'd rather not dive into the topic.

"What's wrong with Stanley?" asked Suzie "He sounds a little down in the mouth"

"Let's just say it reminds him of some bad memories." Henry shrugged. "Best not rock the boat."

"What boat?" asked Anne.

"Never mind" said Henry "Come on, Stanley. We still have to go find jobs"

"Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that" Stanley said as he got up "Suzie, you're in charge. Stay here, and don't leave the house while we're gone, okay?"

"Okay" said Suzie.

Author's Note:

Well folks, looks like it's another adventure in the world of the Amazing Chan Clan. Let's see how Henry and Stanley succeed in finding jobs.

You may have also noticed that I changed Shelly's last name to "Sanchez". I did that primarily because "Sanders" isn't really so fitting. Stay tuned for more as this story develops.
