House of Mouse, Mickey and the others by Disney

Riley's POV

Toon World. Ah, how I like this place. Buildings that are tall and cartoony at the same time. Cartoon characters of Disney walking and talking, making a peaceful city noise….

"Hey! I'm driving here! I'm driving!"

"You're talking to me? You're talking to me huh, punk?!"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Phineas and Ferb, you two are so busted!"

"You'll never get away from me!"

OK, maybe not that peaceful.

Anyways, I followed the directions I usually go to get to place I work to. The House of Mouse is not too far to walk to, if you know the directions. "Through West Point Bridge, walk two blocks, turn left at Main street, U.S.A." As simple as that.

I noticed the increasing number of Disney cartoon characters passing. This is maybe due to the new "Frozen" World being created. I can notice Elsa and Anna passing by me.

I continued with my walk until I reached my destination. By the looks of it, the show had just started. I quickly rushed to the entrance to be able to make it just in time for the show to start.

And, guess what? I made it. Barely.

As soon as Max notices me, he quickly let me in and told me that his dad was waiting for me. I dashed to the Kitchen just as Mike's starting with his introduction.

"Garwsh, Riley. Glad you could make it." Goofy said as I entered.

"Sorry. I just got into detention, again." I said.

"Well, its better that you didn't came late. Imagine if I had to serve all these people all by myself!"

I looked outside and saw many characters occupying the club house. And by many, I mean so many that it exceed the usual seat capacity which is 120 people.

"Wow. Talk about a large crowd." I muttered.

"Sure is. Today's a special event. We're welcoming the newcomers." Goofy said.

"Newcomers?"

Instead of replying, Goofy pointed to a table near to the stage. I noticed that the characters of the movie "Frozen" are occupying the said seat.

"Good evening, ladies, gentlemen and creatures big and small. Welcome to the House of Mouse." I heard Mickey said while he was on the top of the stage."Today we have special guests for our show. Please welcome the characters from the world of 'Frozen'!"

The audience clapped as the spotlight shone on the characters. The characters themselves stand up after being introduced to.

After that, the show went on. We took the orders and served the foods. It was a long night.

After the show, I packed my stuff and said good-bye to the staff. I was a few steps away from the entrance when a familiar voice surprised me.

"Oh, so this is where your part-time job is."

I turned around and saw the one who spoke to me.

"Mr. Elliot? What are you doing here? On second thought, how did you get here?" I asked him.

"Well, it was easy actually." He replied. "'If you are determined to hope for what you seek, with eyes shut tight step through the arch then dare to take a peek.'"

"How did you—"

"An easy rhyme. Saw it on the old plaque at the side of the bridge."

"Oh, I see. Well, you now what my job is, then. My secret's out. I guess I'll being seeing you tomorrow, Sir. Bye!"

"Riley, wait."

That stopped me on my tracks. I then turned to him.

"Don't ever come back here again. Or better, resign." He said.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked.

"You don't belong here, Riley. You are a mortal, not a toon. Some things are better to be forgotten that to suffer knowing it."

"What are you talking about?" I asked him with curiosity. Somehow he captured my interest. By the way he spoke to me, it sounded like he's been here before.

"You don't know me, Riley. But I know this place much more that you ever think of."

I knew it. He's been here before.

"Who are you really?" I asked.

"Well, if you want to know. I was a kid around 10 years old when I came here. I was lost, couldn't find my way back home. And that's when I discovered this place, accidentally of course. I had the blast of my life here. And when I decided to came back to West Point, I was shocked that many years had passed."

"Wait a minute. Could you be-?"

"Yes. I'm Eli. Eli Robinson. The lost kid of West Point."

I can't believe it. He's….. he's the boy that was missing for years. I hear him often in stories around town. Some say that he died. Some say he was kidnapped but was never released. But who could have thought that the eponymous lost kid of West Point came here! Here in Toon World of all places!

I was about to speak when someone interrupted me. And by someone, I mean some mouse.

"Eli, i-its that you?"

"Well, Mr. Mouse. Looks like we meet again."

TO BE CONTINUED…

That's Part 2. Few details revealed and my research on the series really paid off a bit.
