Chapter 4
Avery's face fell again.
"Oh." He said, sadly. "I see."
"Don't be sad." Leela assured him. "I had a wonderful time here. You, Delia, Avery Jr., and everybody here has been really kind and a delight to me. I'll miss that, but I'll remember it all in my heart." Avery smiled.
"That's right; you will little lady." He stood up. "You better go with them." Leela took out her half of the locket and showed it to him.
"This is my locket…or half of it anyways. My parents have the other half. That's why it's very important for me to reunite with them, plus I'm a little girl, and little girls shouldn't be without her loving parents." Avery nodded in agreement.
"That's very true, Leela." Leela frowned.
"Only I don't know where they are." Avery frowned as well, then smiled as an idea came to him.
"Well, don't you worry. The staff and I will do whatever it takes to find your parents." Leela lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Really? You'd do that for me?" Avery nodded.
"Absolutely. You'll be reunited with your parents Leela, I promise." Leela bounced up and down.
"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" She hugged him. Avery hugged her back.
"You're welcome." Sir Yipsalot yipped, running to Leela. Leela ran to him.
"Oh, Sir Yipsalot, I'm going to be with my parents any day now. Isn't that great?" Sir Yipsalot barked excitedly, tail wagging like mad. He jumped into Leela's arms and the one-eyed girl petted him. Delia came in and smiled.
"I heard the news, and that's great. It's a shame you won't be staying with us. I'm happy and sad for you at the same time." Leela smiled.
"Thanks!" She thanked her.
In the coming days, Leela, Avery, and Sir Yipsalot have been featured on news stations around the world like Pearch Perkins, Chet Ubetcha, Greg Corbin and Terri Bates, Callie and Marie, John Mallard, and more.
A lot of cartoons crowded the mansion, claiming that they were Leela's parents, but not one knew about her locket. Leela grew sad each and every day.
"This is nuts!" Toadette said one day to Avery. "I can't believe some cartoons. They don't care for Leela. They just want the reward money. I don't like this one bit."
"I hear you, Toadette." Avery said to her. "But Leela's parent's are out there. Once they're found, all of this craziness will cease." Toadette sighed.
"Well, they better show up soon. I don't think I can take this much longer."
"Really?" Avery asked on the phone. "You want us when? We'll be there!" He hung up.
"Who was that?" Leela wanted to know who had crept up to him. "Is it my parents? Did you find them?" Avery came over to the girl, knelt down, and put his hands on her shoulders.
"No Leela, I'm afraid not." Leela frowned.
"Oh." Avery then smiled.
"That was Pinkie Pie." Leela beamed.
"Pinkie Pie? As in the talk show, 'Smile Smile, Smile'? That talk show?" Avery stood up and nodded.
"Uh-Huh. Pinkie Pie wants us on her show tomorrow. She wants to talk about your parents." Leela couldn't believe it.
"That's my favorite talk show. Pinkie Pie is my idol!" Avery smiled.
"Well apparently, Pinkie Pie is fond of you too if she wants you on her talk show." Sir Yipsalot ran in, yipping. Leela scooped him up.
"Can Sir Yipsalot come?" Avery hesitated.
"I'll call Pinkie, and see what she thinks." Leela jumped up and down.
"I'm going to be on Pinkie's show!" She sang with glee. "I'm going to be on Pinkie's show, I'm going to be on Pinkie's show!" Sir Yipsalot yipped, dancing on his hind legs. Leela grabbed his paws and danced with him.
The next day, Leela, Avery, and Sir Yipsalot went to where Pinkie Pie filmed her show. Leela was in a lovely red dress with a matching bow. The bow was the 'biggest bow she'd ever seen.' They came out of the hover limo, and went into the pink building with a bulletin board on the roof. A picture of a human Pinkie Pie smiling was on it, a rainbow above her. It also read: 'You're not ready without a smile!'
"I can't believe I'm in the place where Pinkie Pie does her shows!" Leela observed. "My girls will be so jealous!" Sir Yipsalot yipped. Avery chuckled. Leela then bumped into Pinkie Pie.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." She apologized. "I wasn't looking where I was…" She grinned from ear to ear when she saw her idol in front of her. "Pinkie Pie!"
"Hello!" Pinkie Pie greeted. She shoo Leela's hand. "You must be Leela." Leela nodded. Pinkie Pie admired Leela's dress. "Ooh, I love you dress!" Leela smiled and did a curtsy.
"Thank you." Pinkie Pie looked at Avery next. "And you must be Avery Bullock." Avery shook her hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you." He responded. Sir Yipsalot barked. Pinkie Pie looked down at the dog, and smiled.
"And you must be Leela's dog, Sir Yipsalot." Sir Yipsalot yipped, tail wagging.
"Thanks for letting him be on your show." Leela said.
"No problem!" Pinkie Pie said. "Most of my friends have pets. Gummy is mine. He's a cute little toothless alligator and I love him!" She then changed the subject. "But, this isn't about him. Come, the show's about to begin!" She led them all to the set. The studio audience was talking amongst themselves, waiting for the show to begin. Leela picked up Sir Yipsalot, and she and Avery sat on the couch. Pinkie Pie sat on the couch next to them. Carl Karl had a video camera pointed at her. The audiences' talking died down as they paid attention up front.
"Okay," The intern began. "We're on the air in 3, 2, 1!" He turned on the record button.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Suzy urged the girls back at the orphanage. They were going to watch Pinkie's Pie's show in Vicky's office. "It's about to start!"
"We're coming," Tiff told the happy little girl.
"Remind me why you're coming again." She said. "You said that our lives were better before television."
"I did, but I want to see why you and the others like this show so much."
"Oh, you're in for a treat." Louise told her.
"I'll be the judge of that."
Louise grabbed the remote and turned on the TV, just as the intro ended. She put it down on the end table, and they all sat on the couch.
"Hello, everybody!" Pinkie greeted in the camera. "You may know today's guests. She's been on the news and she's here! I'm talking about the girl who is looking for her parents, Tauranga Leela with Avery Bullock, and her cute little dog, Sir Yipsalot!" The camera went to Leela, Avery, and Sir Yipsalot. Leela and Avery smiled and waved. Sir Yipsalot barked. The audience cheered.
"LEELA'S ON THE TV!" Suzy yelled. "LEELA'S ON TV!"
"We know!" Louise said to her. "Now, shut up!"
"Louise!" Tiff scolded.
"That's the bad 'shut up'." Blythe told Suzy.
"I know!" Suzy said, glaring at Louise. Louise saw the glares she was getting from the girls.
"I'm sorry, okay?" She told them. "I just want to watch the show." She and the other girls looked at the TV again.
The cheers on the TV died down.
"Now, Tauranga," Pinkie Pie started.
"Please," Leela told her. "Call me Leela."
"Right! So Leela, this must be your first talk show, right?" Leela nodded.
"It is, and since you are my favorite, I'm honored." Pinkie Pie and the audience awed.
"How old are you?"
"10."
"I hear you're living in an enormous mansion. That must be exciting!" Leela nodded again.
"It is, I love it. It's got to be every kid's dream, and I'm living it. The staff are really nice and I get to play with Avery Jr." Pinkie was confused.
"Avery Jr.?"
"My stepson." Avery explained to her. "He's an infant. He was quiet before Leela came. Now he's a bundle of joy!"
"He's like a little brother to me." Leela added.
"Oh, I see." Pinkie Pie said. She looked at Sir Yipsalot. "And what about Sir Yipsalot? Do he and Avery Jr. get along?" Leela nodded.
"They get along great!"
"That's great! What about the fireworks on the Fourth of July? Did that scare them? They were quite loud, espcially the finale. Loud noises can scare babies and doggies." Leela shook her head.
"They didn't seem to be scared at all."
"They're very brave then. That's nice." She then changed the subject. "So, I hope you find your parents Leela. I can't imagine parents giving up their own child."
"Thank you. I hope I find them too. It's been ten years since Vicky found me on the orphanage steps. I don't even know what they look like, but once I see them, I'll know. Ten years is too long to be without your parents." Pinkie Pie nodded in agreement.
"I hear you." She agreed. "Ten years is too long. Every child should be with their parents if they're able." She looked at Avery. "It was kind of you to take this child in with you while Leela waits for her parents to come."
"Well, when I took her in, I didn't know that her parents were still alive."
"How long ago did you start looking for them?"
"Since the first of August."
"Oh, that was some time ago. It's almost September already."
"We may not have found her parents yet, but I vowed to Leela that we would."
"And a promise is a promise." Avery nodded.
"Right. I'm hoping that we find them before Labor Day."
"Why before Labor Day? I mean, I hope she finds her parents any day now, but why set a date?"
"New, New, York is where I live in my summer home. My real home is in Langley Falls, Virginia. I'm a CIA boss there."
"Oh, that's so cool." Avery nodded.
"It is. I love my job, and all of my agents are good agents."
"That's good. Well, that's all the time we have for now. Leela, it was a real pleasure to have you."
"It was a real pleasure to be on here. I still can't believe it. My friends won't believe it either."
"Do you want to give a shout-out to them?" Leela nodded. She looed at the camera and waved to them.
"Hi Suzy, Louise, Blythe, Tiff, Lisa, and Mabel!" Sir Yipsalot barked.
"Leela gave us a shout-out!" Suzy said as the girls heard Leela say their names on the TV. "And on Pinkie Pie's talk show too!"
"Yes, we know." Tiff said. "All except Vicky."
"Oh, who wants to give Vicky a shout-out?" Louise asked. "Nobody; that's who! She doesn't deserve a shout-out." The girls all agreed, and paid attention to the TV again.
"Aw!" Pinkie Pie said on TV. "You know it would be awkward if the ones she gave a shout-out to aren't watching. Well, that's Leela, Avery. and Sir Yipsalot everybody. Remember Leela's parents, if you're out there somewhere, your daughter is looing for you. We'll be back with some more fun after this commercial break!" There were more cheers from the audience. Sir Yipsalot barked. Leela waved farewell at the camera. Carl turned off the camera. Pinkie Pie looked at her guests.
"You all can leave or you can watch the rest of my show right here."
"I want to watch the rest." Leela responded. She looked up at Avery. "That is if it's all right with you."
"We can stay for as long as we want." Avery told her. "Leela cheered.
"Yes!" She, Avery, and Sir Yipsalot went to find seats.
"Those were the greatest special guests on Smile, Smile, Smile!" Mabel said as the first commercial break went on.
"I didn't expect Leela to be on the show." Lisa put in.
"That's why she and her temporary family were the greatest special guests!"
"Think Leela will find her parents?" Blythe wanted to know. Louise shot a look at her.
"For the last time," She began. "Leela's parents are dead! That's why she's an orphan!" Blythe sighed.
"Oh, Louise!" When will you have faith and stop being a Debbie Downer?"
Suzy then stood up, and then began to sing the theme song.
"Come on everybody, smile, smile, smile," She began. "Fill my heart with sunshine, sunshine!" The other girls joined in, even Louise.
"Come on everybody, smile, smile, smile. All I need is a smile smile, smile. Smile, smile, smile, come on and smile, come on and smile!" The girls all burst out laughing as they were done singing.
"That song always makes me smile." Mabel said.
"Me too." Tiff agreed. "It's just a happy and upbeat song. Thank you for letting me watch this with you girls. It was fun seeing Leela." Vicky then opened the door. The girls gasped as they all looked at her.
"What are you standing around here for?!" Vicky shouted. "Get back to work!" Suzy went up to her.
"Leela's on TV." She told her.
"I don't care if Many Directions is on TV. GO TO WORK!" Startled, Lisa turned off the TV, and the girls went out of the room.
Waluigi and Wario went into the orphanage. Louise led them to Vicky in her office.
"What can I do for you?" Vicky asked when Louise left.
"Have you heard the news?" Wario questioned. Mabel then popped out of nowhere, scaring Wario and Waluigi.
"BOOOO!!" She then changed the subject. "That you can watch Pink Clues every night and every day?" She guessed. Vicky glared at her, and pointed out the door.
"Out!" She demanded. Mabel snickered, but obeyed. She went out of the door. Mabel then thought of a plan. She'll eavesdrop on their conversation through the vent! And with that, she went off. Vicky groaned.
"Those little girls are killing me!" She looked back at Wario and Waluigi. "So, what news?" Waluigi gave her the flyer to find Leela's parents. Vicky read it to herself. "What's this?"
"A flyer to find this girl Leela's parents."
"But that's impossible, they're dead. They died in a car crush nine and a half years ago."
"But, look at the reward money." Vicky looked at the reward money, her eyes turning into dollar signs. "$400,000?" Wario nodded.
"Yup, we'll be rich!"
"Filthy rich!" Walugi added
Mabel went into the bathroom where Suzy was scrubbing the floor. Suzy looked at her as she ripped out the vent.
"What are you doing?" She wanted to know. Mabel shushed her.
"Shhh!" She said. "Wario and Waluigi are here talking to Vicky. I'm going to eavesdrop on their conservation." Suzy looked confused.
"Why?"
"Because I can and feel like it."
"Oh. Can I come with you?" Mabel nodded.
"Sure, but be quiet." Suzy threw back her scrubber.
"Yay!"
"Shhh!" Suzy quieted down.
"Oh, I mean 'yay'!" Mabel and Suzy went into the vent.
Back in the office, Vicky frowned.
"Except," She began. "that they're dead, so what good is this?" She crumpled the flyer, and threw it into the garbage can near her desk. Mabel and Suzy went to the spot where they were above them, and listened.
"But, don't you get it?"
"What's there to get? They're dead. If they're looking for them, they're as dumb at that brat Leela is."
"But, we can pretend to be her parents!" Mabel and Suzy gasped. Vicky looked confused.
"What do you mean?"
"Look, how old was Leela when they died?"
"Six months."
"So, Leela doesn't know what they look like, correct?"
"Correct. Just get to the point already!"
"Well, if she doesn't know what they look like, she won't know it if we disguise ourselves as them. Waluigi and I will dress up as them, we can take her, and get the money!" He and Waluigi laughed.
"That's brilliant! What will you do to the girl?" Wario and Waluigi looked at her. Wario shrugged.
"Leave her somewhere out on the road, I guess. She wouldn't be of any use to us then." She looked at Vicky. "That is unless you want to take her back." Vicky shook her head.
"No, I'm tired of that brat. She can die for all I care. Heck I'll do the same for the other girls. I'm tired of this orphanage!"
"Okay." The three villains then all laughed.
Mabel, in the vents, gasped. She looked at Suzy.
"We have to tell the girls!" Suzy nodded in agreement. They crawled back the way they came, or tried to anyway. The vent gave way, and fell onto the floor below, taking the girls along. They screamed.
.
They woke up. The villains all looked down at them.
"Uh-oh!" Suzy observed. Mabel gave a lame smile and waved at them. She laughed nervously.
"Hey, guys!" She greeted them.
"GET THEM!" Vicky barked. The two little girls jumped to their feet, and ran for the door. Vicky grabbed Mabel. Mabel screamed.
"Gotcha!" She said. Mabel struggled, but couldn't get free. "RUN SUZY; DON'T LET THEM CATCH YOU!"
"Here, little girl, little girl." Wario said.
"Come to Waluigi!" Waluigi added. Suzy slid under him. Waluigi bent down, and tried to get her, and failed. He fell to the floor. He got up and ran after her.
Suzy ran and ran. Both Waluigi and Wario tried their best to get her, but couldn't. The girl was too fast for them. Vicky groaned out loud.
"How can you two idiots not catch one simple little girl?" She wanted to know. Mabel licked Vicky's hand. Vicky screamed, releasing her. Mabel took the opportunity and ran after Suzy out of the door. She slammed the door into Wario and Waluigi's faces. Waluigi held his face in pain as the door has slammed on his nose.
"Ow!" He yelled. He looked at Wario and Vicky, uncovering his face. Wario and Vicky gasped. His nose was throbbing! Waluigi was confused. "What?" Is my nose broken?" They shook their heads. "Then, what?" Wario grabbed a hand mirror and showed to him. Waluigi looked at his reflection and gasped, taken aback. He held his nose.
"My nose; my beautiful nose!" He took his hands now, looking mad. "Those little brats must pay!"
"Oh, they'll pay all right!" Vicky agreed. She opened the door, and she and the two ran out, Vicky shutting the door behind them.
"WARIO, WALUIGI, AND VICKY ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING TERRIBLE TO LEELA!" Suzy shouted as she and Mabel came into the girls' room. Mabel shut the door behind her. The other girls looked up at them from their work.
"What are you talking about, Suzy?" Blythe wanted to know, going over to her. "What terrible thing are they going to do to her?"
"They're going to pretend that they're her parents." The girls gasped.
"But Leela's parents are dead." Louise pointed out.
"That's why they're going to pretend!" Louise smiled.
"AHA! I knew they were dead! What did I tell you?!"
"Louise!" Tiff scolded. "This is serious!"
"How do you know about this?" Lisa asked Suzy and Mabel.
"Suzy and I eavesdropped on their conservation through the vent." Mabel told her.
"They're going to do it for the reward money." Suzy put in. "Then, once they have her, they're going to ditch her out on the road."
"That doesn't make sense. Why not take her back to the orphanage?"
"Because," Mabel said. "Vicky's tired of her. She's going to do it to all of us too." The girls gasped.
"What do we do?!" Suzy wanted to know. "We need to get to Leela on time!"
"We need to contact her." Tiff said. "Luckily we live in the year 2984. All we need to do is find Avery Bollocks' number on the Internet."
"But we don't have a computer. The only person who has one is Vicky, and she doesn't allow us on it, or on her My Pad 67."
"Then we have to sneak in and look at it." Louise told her. She looked at Tiff. "Sorry Tiff, but I can't think of any other way."
"It's okay." Tiff responded.
"Well, how are we going to do this? How are we going to sneak in without Vicky seeing us?" Louise was about to answer when the door opened. The girls all looked up and gasped, their fear coming true. It was Vicky! Wario and Waluigi were with her. Mabel stepped up.
"We know your plan." She said to them. "And you aren't going to get away with it."
"Yeah!" Suzy added. Waluigi stepped in and pointed at his throbbing nose.
"Look at what you did to my nose you brat!" Mabel snickered. Waluigi got mad. "It's not funny; it really hurts!"
"Well, I'm sorry about your nose, but you still aren't going to get away with your plan."
"Oh, yeah?!" Vicky challenged. "Wanna bet?" She slammed the door shut. Mabel turned to the girls.
"Well, that was weird. I wonder what she's going to do." The girls then heard the door lock.
"Oh no!" Blythe said. "She locked us in!" They all ran to the door. Louise pounded on it madly.
"LET US OUT!" She cried. "LET US OUT! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO US; WE'RE ONLY CHILDREN!"
"Oh, can it, twirpette!" Vicky yelled on the other side. "This way, I know you won't do anything to interfere. I'll let you out once we get Leela and all the money."
"Yeah!" Wario added. "Then you can be with her again when you girls sleep with the fishes!" They all laughed evilly. Waluigi then went to the door.
"You'll think twice about slamming the door on someone's nose; oh yeah, you can't because you all will be dead!" They all laughed and laughed.
"Come on!" Vicky urged Wario and Waluigi. "Let's get that money!" They agreed. Wario and Waluigi started snapping their fingers as a song came to them.
"Money Street, Money Street!" They all sang while Wario and Waluigi snapped their fingers to the rhythm.
"We're going to get rich with all that cash," Wario sang.
It's going to be one big bash!"
"I'm going to dip into a golden tub," Vicky put in, imagining herself in a golden tub.
Then an unlucky someone is going to give me a nice, relaxing foot rub." She imagined Chip Skylark giving her a foot rub. "With all the money," Walugi sang. "I will surly win. That'll make me grin!"
"I'm going to stash it in a big vault." Wario pictured all of their money in a vault, and he dived into it as if it was a pool.
"Nobody better steal it all, otherwise it'll be their fault." He glared at Waluigi. "Waluigi!"
"What?" Waluigi asked. "I won't steal our money, and claim them for my own. I promise." He sang along. "We'll say Cha-ching, cha-ching
Because we're going to have all that bling-bling!" Waluigi imagined wearing sparkly, golden, money signs necklace around his neck.
"Also in that money, Wario will frolic
He'll buy a lifetime supply of garlic"
"You know it!" Wario agreed, then continued singing. "That Leela brat will be the key. For money street is where we're going to be!
Our lives will be green."
"This," A satisfied Vicky sang. "I would have never began to have foreseen
"We'll have more dough then ever before!" Waluigi put in.
Money Street is where we're going to…"
"Money Street is where we're going to…" Wario added.
"Money Street is where we're going to…." Vicky continued as well. They all held hands and kicked their legs as they all sang the finale.
"Money Street is where we all are gonna beeeeeeeee!"
"Oh, and Waluigi," Wario said to him. "You're going to dress up as a woman." Waluigi was puzzled.
"What?!" Wario and Vicky went off outside. Waluigi ran after them. "Wait a minute! Why must I be a woman? Why not Vicky pretend to be the mom. Wait, wait!"
Louise gave up on pounding the door, and sat down on the floor.
"What are we going to do?" Suzy asked. "We can't let them win!"
"I know that, Suzy!" Louise shouted at her. "I'm thinking okay?" Suzy looked hurt. Louise saw this and sighed. "I'm sorry. I'm just frustrated is all." Mabel looked at the window on the far wall.
"If I only had a grappling hook," She began. "Then I can break the window with it, then we can escape."
"But that's vandalism." Tiff pointed out. "It's illegal." Mabel turned to her.
"Well, how do you think we should do it?! We don't have a lot of options here!" Tiff shrugged. Lisa noticed the vent in the ceiling. She looked at the girls.
"I have an idea." "We need to get to that vent. That's how we can escape."
"That's great." Louise said. "But how are we all going to get up there?"
"We can each get our mattresses, and stack them just below where the vent is."
"That seems a little dangerous." Tiff put in. She noticed all of the glares that she was getting. "But, we can do it." The girls cheered and all went to take their mattresses off of their beds, and stacked them on top of each other, helping each other out when they proved too difficult.
"Okay." Lisa said when they were done. "Now, someone hand me a broom so that I can get it open." Blythe grabbed a nearby broom, and handed it to Lisa. Lisa started climbing the stack of mattresses to the top.
"Carefu!" Tiff warned.
Once at the top, Lisa looked at the ceiling. The vent was still out of reach, even for the broom.
"Shoot!" She cursed. She had another idea, and looked at the girls
"I need like a nightstand up here. That should be enough to reach with the broom."
Louise grabbed a random nightstand, and climbed next to Lisa. The watching girls all held their breaths.
"Okay, this is really dangerous." Tiff observed.
"Kids," Mabel said. "Don't try this at home." Suzy looked at her.
"Who are you talking to?" She wanted to know. Mabel shrugged. "And we're kids."
"Yeah, but we're professionals!" Suzy looked confused.
"No, we're not."
"Just watch." Suzy and Mabel turned back to watch Louise as she set the end table down next to Lisa. Lisa pulled open the drawers and climbed on them, with the broom. She could now almost reach the ceiling!
She poked open the vent on the ceiling with the broom handle. She looked down at the other girls.
"Okay, let's get out of here and go to Vicky's office." One by one, the rest of the girls climbed the stack. Louise climbed to the vent. Lisa stayed behind to help the other girls. When every girl was up in the vents, she too climbed up and out of the room.
The girls crawled to find Vicky's office. The vent door was already open because of Suzy and Mabel earlier.
"How do we get down?" Suzy asked.
"I'll have to jump down and I can help you guys." Lisa said.
"No!" Tiff said crossly. "You'll get hurt." Again she was met with glares. "But, I guess it's the only way." Lisa looked at the office below. She gulped.
On the count to three in her head, Lisa jumped and landed in the office. The girls cheered.
"Now, get us down." Louise said. Lisa was about to think of a way to do just that when Tiff spoke up.
"Use the curtain." She and the other girls looked at her in confusion.
"What?" Lisa asked.
"Uh, Tiff?" Mabel wanted to know. "How will a curtain help us down?"
"Yeah!" Suzy added. "How could it?"
"She could use it as a trampoline." Tiff replied. The girls looked even more confused. "Lisa could take of the curtain from the window, stand under this vent, unfold it, and one by one, we jump. How's you like it?" The girls all thought it was a good idea.
"Awesome idea, Tiff!" Louise congratulated her. Mabel patted Tiff on the shoulder.
"Look at you girl," She told her. "Taking risks. One of us or we all might get hurt and break some bones, but you don't care. You just go and do it. I'm proud of you." Tiff smiled.
"I'll go get that curtain." Lisa said, and went a window.
"So," Tiff began. "Who wants to go first?" Suzy shot up her hand like a bullet. She jumped up and down.
"Me; me!" She shouted. "PICK ME; PICK ME!"
"Okay, Suzy." Suzy cheered.
"Yay!" Lisa came below then with a curtain, unfolding it, and held it like a trampoline.
"Okay, Suzy. Stand above and wait for when I say, 'Jump'." Suzy did just that and nodded.
"Ready!"
"Okay, 1, 2, 3, jump!" Suzy jumped and landed on the curtain below. She looked up.
"Can I go again?"
"No, get out of the way, so the others can go." Suzy got off, and it was Louise' turn.
"Okay," Lisa said as soon as all the girls, including Tiff, was down "Let's get on Vicky's computer." The girls then all surrounded Vicky's computer as Suzy turned on Vicky's Mypad to play some games on it.
Delia answered the door. Wario and Waluigi dressed up as a woman complete with a parasol and fake eyelashes and ruby red lipstick, stood on the other side.
"Can I help you?" Delia asked. Wario nodded.
"You can." He said. He then showed Delia the other half of Leela's locket. "Ten years ago, we left our baby girl, Turanga Leela, on the doorstep of Vicky's Orphanage for Girls." Delia opened the door for then.
"Won't you come in?" Wario and Waluigi nodded. They came in. Delia closed the door shut, and ushered Wario and Waluigi, to follow her, which they did. They went to sit in the Social Room.
"Would you two like some coffee?" Delia asked when they sat in some chairs. "Tea? Anything to eat?" The fake parents shook their heads and stated their fake tale to why they left.
"We were poor," Wario began. "And my wife just gave birth to Leela. We loved her like she was our child, because she was our child, but in order to save up money, we had to give her up. "
"We got richer." Waluigi continued in a girly voice. "We were about to get her from the orphanage, when we saw her on Smile, Smile, Smile. So, we went here instead."
"Delia?" Avery questioned her as he came in. Beside him were Leela, and Sir Yipsalot. "Who are these folks?" Delia stood up.
"These nice people," She began. "Are Leela's parents." Leela gasped. Could it be? Waluigi went to hug her.
"Oh, Leela!" He faked in his girlish voice, and cried. "It's you; it's really you! Our baby girl is reunited with us at last!" Sir Yipsalot sniffed them both and growled. He knew these people were fakes! He yipped madly.
"Sir Yipsalot!" Delia scolded. "Be nice!" Sir Yipslot stopped and whined.
