Chapter 6

The Conclusion to Our Story

"Come on ya stupid dog, wake up!" Eustace was whacking Courage's head trying to wake him up. "You always find some way out of these messes. Erggg, good for nothin mutt." Eustace grumbled. He felt a tap on his shoulder and when he looked up he saw one of the clowns holding a pie about the size of his truck! He yelled and tried to run away, but to no avail. The clown threw his giant pie and Eustace was covered with gooey pie filling.

The others were in the same predicament. Katz, Shirley, and Muriel were running around wildly to avoid being smothered in the pie of death. Harry had been hit long ago and Fred was still sitting there, in his own little world no doubt. None of the clowns noticed him anyway.

Muriel screamed as a pie just missed her, "Courage, save me!"

Courage's eyes fluttered open and he rubbed his head. "Arooo." He moaned then sat up.

"Coouurraagge!!!" Muriel yelled again.

"Drat, foiled again." Katz mumbled as a pie felled him.

Courage stood up and began hopping from foot to foot. "What do I do? What do I do?" he noticed the windows. A thought cloud appeared over Courage's head. In it was him opening the window and getting out with Muriel. Courage nodded then ran to the window and tore aside the curtain. Light from the rising sun poured into the room.

Twisted screams came from the five clowns' mouth and they all suddenly disappeared. Courage sighed in astonishment and relief.

"Good thinking dog." Shirley said and Muriel nodded. Courage blushed a little.

Suddenly Velvit Vic walked into the room. "Yo daddyos," he said. "What's swingin." He stopped when he saw the pie covered bodies on the floor. "Ragsville."

"Poor Eustace," Muriel said as she walked over to him. "Looks like you're goin to be needin a bath."

"Errrr, " Eustace growled. "It's all because of that stupid dog." Then he turned to Katz who was starting to clean himself. "Where's me money."

"What? Oh, it looks like I should be going. Tah, tah!" Katz jumped out of the window and Eustace ran after him yelling.

Muriel looked at her watch. "Oh my! I have to get home and start on breakfast. We're havin my special eggs…with vinegar!" she smiled while Courage made a retching noise. "Fred, would you like to come over for breakfast?"

"Yes. Thank you," Fred replied politely. Courage muffled a cry of terror.

Everyone left climbed out of the window and went home.

Well, with the exception of Harry.

"Wait!" Harry yelled after them as he lay sputtering in the pie. "Wait don't leave me here! They'll come back, you know, and destroy us all! Wait!"

Courage turned to the audience and said, "You know, I'm really starting to hate that guy."

A/N-Yay I finished!!!! I know it's not very good and the end is nothing like in the movie, but I had to make it sweet you know, no death or dying or any of that. Oh well…
