The Last Stage

"That was amazing!" yelled Maxwell. "How did you manage to kill the cat?"

"We mice have been training for centuries..many skills and techniques from our ancestors. We have passed them on from generation to generation. That is why we were prepared for battle." Explained the mice captain.

"That's very intelligent. Us hamsters usually stay at home..so we aren't involved in battle and fighting. That is very impressive!" replied Alex.

*************************************

"So you won't be staying any longer?" asked the king.

"No thank you. We must continue on with our journey. We have to sure our friend." Said Boss.

"Well..until we meet again!" said the king cheerfully.

"Until we meet again." Answered the hamhams.

So the hamhams set off on the last stage, to find Prince Orthodox and to cure Bijou.

'Just a little bit longer..we'll find him Bijou..we will.' Thought Hamtaro.

*****************************************

The hamhams traveled pretty far. They had climbed over 2 mountains, through a forest, and crossed a very wide river. Even though they were exhausted, they still went on. The only thing left was to find the secret portal and cross to the last stage. The place where they were now, was beside a cave.

"Hamhams, search around this area for little gadgets to find the portal. Quickly..we must find somewhere to stay for the night." Ordered Elder-Ham.

So the hamhams pushed and pulled lifted and dug, until Oxnard gave a shrilling yell.

"I found it! I found the portal! Hurry! We have to get in!" yelled Oxnard.

Without words, the hamhams quickly jumped into the portal, not knowing how they would get back.

****************************************************** "Ow! Get off my tail!" hollered Maxwell.

"Sorry. Didn't mean to..just landed on it." Replied Boss.

"Hamhams..look!" said Elder-Ham. What they saw was one of the most amazing things they ever saw. It was like a city made of pure gold and silver. Every single hamster had jewels and coins while they walked around the market.

"I've never seen anything like this! This is amazing! Elder-Ham..is this where we're going?" said Alex.

"I believe so. Let's get moving..it's getting pretty dark." Answered Elder-Ham. So the hamhams scurried as fast as their little feet could carry them.

****************************************************

"Captain, I see a group of creatures running in our direction." Said a hamster.

"How many are there?" asked the captain.

"About seven."

"Don't worry then. We have 50 hamsters. They can't get passed us. Prepare ten soldiers to stand out front. They can handle them."

So ten hamsters walked outside waiting for the arrival of the hamhams. As soon as they saw the hamhams, they were prepared to attack if necessary.

"Halt! Who goes there?" asked one of the hamsters.

"We are fellow hamsters. We come to find Prince Orthodox." Said Elder-Ham.

"If I may ask..why?" asked the hamster.

"We need a cure for our friend because she has been bitten by the magical snake. Please let us through. We mean no harm to any hamster or property of yours." Begged Maxwell.

"Then be it. Follow me." Said the soldier. So he and his 9 other troops led them to the highest castle into the highest tower.

****************************************************************

"Prince, we have some visitors. They come to ask for some medicine for their friend. Do you give them permission to enter?" asked the soldier on the communicator.

"Very well. But make sure they are unarmed and make sure it's safe." Said the prince.

"Yes, your majesty." Obeyed the hamster. They checked the hamhams for weapons, didn't find any, and let them enter.

"What business do you hamsters come here for?" asked the prince.

"Your majesty. We come from many worlds away. Our friend here has been bitten by the magical snake. We beg you to cure her. We will all be deeply saddened if she leaves us." Said Elder-Ham.

"I understand. Not too many hamsters come from so far. I congratulate you. Stay here. I will find the correct medicine for your friend." Said the prince. So the hamhams did as he said. They browsed at the amazing paintings and pictures of past rulers. The portraits were very well sketched. All the hamhams looked in awe.

"Here it is. Give a few drops to drink for 3 days, then she will be cured. If you don't do specifically as I say, she might not make it. Start today, and remember..only 3 days." Said the prince.

"Thank you so much. How can we repay you?" said the hamhams.

"No need. I have all I ever wanted. Do you need help returning to your world?" asked the prince.

"Well..sort of. We don't know how to return. So..no." said Boss nervously.

"Don't worry. We'll send you to the transporting area. We'll send you home. Just give us your world name, country, city and address." Commented the prince.

"Thank you again. We really appreciate it." Said Oxnard.

So the hamhams followed the prince down the castle to the transporting area.

******************************************************

"So..I guess this is the end right?" smiled Alex.

"Yes. Thank you very mush for helping us all this way. We could have never have done it without you. Thank you." Said Hamtaro as he gave Alex a hug.

"No problem. You helped me and I help you in return. As friends are..I must be off now, to start a new town back in my village. So long friends!" yelled Alex as he transported back to his village.

"Bye!" yelled the hamhams in unison.

***********************************

'Whoa! What a creepy dream! Well..I'd better hurry to the clubhouse.' Thought Hamtaro to himself, as he scurried down the pipe toward the clubhouse.

"Hamha!" said Hamtaro.

"You're late! Again! When will you be on time?" joked Boss.

"I had the weirdest dream." Replied Hamtaro.

"Tell us!" Yelled all the hamhams.

"Alright. We went off to a picnic, and...."
