TLP: Yep, guess so, Miri... to the Pigmobile?
Miri: Absolutely! *throws cape behind shoulder*
*TLP jumps into the Pigmobile and drives off rapidly with Miri... several pieces of paper are seen fluttering through the air as they fall to the ground...
Miri: *climatic music* We'll be back!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Darien jerked his head up from the flowery ground only to stare into the face of a great white horse with a rainbow-y mane and tail? He almost looked like the horse from... and the little huts.
"Oh, no."
"Hello, friend! My name is Starlight! Welcome to Rainbow Land!"
"AHHHHHH!!! How could this be happening to ME?" Following behind Starlight was a troupe of children dressed in all the different colors of the rainbow, each holding the hand of an unidentifiable fuzzy creatures... and they were all... singing.
"Ummm...Starlight? Who are they?"
"They're the Color Kids, of course!" cheered the horse gleefully.
"Everybody's got part to play, to start each day in a BEAAUUUtiful way! Every morning, when the night goes awaaaayyyy, every morning is a brand new day!" Singing in perfect high-pitched harmony, they swayed back and forth, until they noticed Darien. They all stopped, mouths hanging open, looking very, very, disturbed. A little red boy separated himself from the others and approached Darien and Starlight.
"StarLIGHT! I TOLD you to stop associating with those who aren't colorful!
"Wha..." gaped Darien.
"But... but Red... I wanna be everyone's friend..." sniffled Starlight.
"Well, that's just not possible, Starlight, and you know it! Kids, get this monstrosity to the jail!"
"WHAT? WHY?? Serena, Andrew! HELP! Wake up! They're going to arrest me or something!" screeched Darien, glancing fearfully at the Color Kids that were rapidly closing in around him.
Again, the red one stepped forward and starring evilly up at Darien. Kicking him in the knees, he yelled, "Hey! You look me in the EYE when we talk, got it?" Falling to his knees Darien frantically looked around for SOME way to fight them off, but there were just too many...
"Ummm... excuse me, Red?
"It's Red Butler to you, bud!"
"Okay, ummm, Red Butler. Could you maybe explain to me why I'm, uh, being arrested?" Maybe if he stalled them long enough, the others would wake up and come to his rescue.
"Fine, if I must. You, sir, are being arrested because you are uncolorful!"
"Pardon me?"
"Well, just look at that black hair of yours! That will NEVER work in Rainbow Land! Black is the color of baaadddd people, so it's not allowed here. However, we might be kind enough to change it for you, for a small fee, of course," grinned Red.
"Like...dye my hair, or something?!"
"Exactly."
"But...see my eyes?? They're BLUE! Blue is a nice color!
"I told you, black is NOT allowed!" Suddenly Red's face twisted and he pointed to the awaiting Color Kids.
"All right, everyone! Get him and chain him! Then, take him to the Rainbow Prison!" Turning to Darien, he reminded, "Gotta say your Magenta Rights: You have the right to remain silent and uncolorful until further notice. Anything mean you say can and WILL be used against you!"
"But-"
"Ah, someone write that down! Talking back to law enforcement!"
"SERENAAAAAAAAA!!!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Uhhhhhh..." Andrew felt something tugging on his head, practically pulling his hair out by the roots.
"What's going on...?" He slowly opened his eyes, only to see a horse's neck.
"WHAT?" The pulling increased, and he jumped to his feet.
"AHHH!!!!!" screamed a voice. Leaping around, Andrew found himself face to face with... Starlight?
"Hello, friend. I.m genuinely sorry that you're not hay."
"Wha...you're...you're...?"
"Starlight! Welcome to Rainbow Land!" chirped the horse.
"Oh...my...god..."
Andrew looked around to see all of his friends slowly coming to...except Darien. Uh-ohhhhh...
"You guys!" he yelled, rushing to Mina's side.
"Owwwww...Andrew? Where are we?"
"Mina...we're in Rainbow Land."
"Ahahaha...Andrew are you're sure you're feeling..." she stopped after taking in the soft, flowery hills around them and the Rainbow Palace, looming in the distance like a giant Ice Cream Cone.
"Oh, no." Everyone was sitting in the grass and looked to Andrew to find
out just exactly going on.
"So, ANDREW! Do you care to tell us precisely WHERE we are?" demanded Raye.
"Ummm...well...minna, we're in Rainbow Land."
"WHAT?!"
"How can we be in Rainbow Land?" asked Lita. Everyone's face turned expectantly to Amy.
"Well, you guys, I'm not sure. I guess we must've been sucked in the TV or something."
"Sucked into the TV? You've got to be KIDDING!" screamed Raye.
"Hey...you guys?"
"What, Serena?"
"Well...two things, actually."
"What is it with you and putting things in twos today, huh Serena?" questioned Mina.
"Wha...?"
"Nevermind, Andrew, go on, Serena."
"Thanks, Ams! So...first: Look, I still have the TV remote!"
"Hmmm...Perhaps that's the only way we can get back?" thought Amy, aloud.
"Secondly, and most importantly: Where is Darien?"
"Well...I'm not so sure! When I got up, he was already gone," said Andrew.
"I know!" yelped a sing-songy voice.
"Andrew...that horse is talking to us."
"I know..."
"Hello, friends! I believe the uncolored one you call Darien is on his way to Rainbow Prison!" announced Starlight, cheerfully.
"WHAT??"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Duuuhhhh, hey Murky! Look, new people in Rainbow Land!!" droned a dumpy little potato-shaped looking creature, "And they're uncolored too!"
"Shut up, Lurky! Everyone knows that we're the ONLY uncolored ones in Rainbow Land! Only our lives are devoted to destroying that rainbow clad brat!"
"But....Murky, look!" Glancing up from his latest evil invention, the short, greenish-colored evil mad scientist saw the group of angry people, who were only slightly colored.
"Well, well, well...it looks like we could possibly have new allies anyway." cackled Murky. "I wonder why the Color Kids haven't gotten to them first?"
"Woowwwwww...look at that remote the short blonde one is holding..."
"What? Lurky, I'm positive that remote is the key to killing off that little Rainbow brat!"
"Duuhhh...really?"
"Yes, really! Now, get in the go-cart!"
"Ok, Murky, whatever you say, Murky, I promise this time I'll do better and-"
"Awww, just shut up and help me get that remote! This is the best thing that ever happened in Rainbow Land! Mwhahahahahah!!!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Y'all! I've got the perfect way to find Darien!" yelled Serena, over the din of arguing.
"How, Serena," sighed Raye.
"We play detective!"
Serena whipped out a small cape and whirled it around herself, fastening it around her neck. She stood on the hill, decorated in a Sherlock Holmes' style hat and holding a bubble pipe in one hand.
"And how is that going to help us?" asked Mina.
"Junior High, my dear Mina..." said Serena.
"That's elementary, dear," corrected Amy.
"No, I already graduated from there," stated Serena, confused.
"Lord help us all..." stated Raye as a matter-of-fact.
Serena glared sharply at Raye before producing a magnifying glass from the folds of her cape. She bent down and began investigating the ground all around the area.
"Serena?" asked Andrew. "Isn't it obvious they went that way?" He pointed at a path that had been clearly marked by the footsteps of a thousand tiny feet and a small ditch in the ground where a rather large body had been dragged.
"Look! It's Darien's shoe!" shouted Lita, holding up a tennis shoe. Amy grabbed the shoe and ran several tests on it. "It's the correct size, his footprints are all over it, and..." Amy sniffed at the shoe. "And it definitely has a Darien odor about it..."
"Oh my poor Darien!" screamed Serena. "Where could they have taken him?!"
"My poor Darien?" echoed Raye.
Mina smiled. "I think I heard it too..."
"Serena and Darien, sitting in a tree... K-I-S-S-I-N-G..." Raye and Mina chimed in perfect unison.
Serena blushed furiously. "Stop it you guys! I'm just worried about him, that's all!"
"Oh, you're worried about him..." grinned Raye.
Serena blushed more furiously.
"Hey guys?" asked Andrew hesitantly.
"Yes Andrew?" sang Mina as her attention suddenly shifted for him and she glided over next to him.
"What's that?" Andrew pointed to a hill where a huge cloud of dirt was being kicked up in a trail that was leading straight for them.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"This is a great plan, duhh..." said Lurky.
"Shut up and just grab that remote when we pass them," shouted Murky.
The two evil creatures, one potato shaped, the other, an odd little green man, were bobsledding down a hill towards the strangers they had seen.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"It's coming closer!" said Serena.
"At this speed, and at its calculated trajectory..." mumbled Amy as she fiddled with her calculator. "It's going to be here in less than a minute!"
Lita pushed up a sleeve.
"And if it gives us any trouble..." she growled.
"Hey," spoke up the Rainbow-y Starlight. "You're ignoring me..."
No one replied.
The horse tossed his mane, turned, and disappeared, mumbling something about lost friends.
Meanwhile, whatever-it-is was speeding towards the friends at high-speed.
Serena pointed. "Guys -- it's almost here!"
No reply.
Serena turned. Her friends were already busily on their way down the trail.
"Ahhh! Wait for me!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hey, Murky?"
"What is it now, Lurky?"
"They moved."
"What? They can't do that! They're lost remember?"
"But how come they aren't there anymore?"
Murky turned to look ahead. Sure enough, their victims had moved giving the devious duo a running shot perfectly into... a large rock.
"Oh shi--"
*DIC rep suddenly shows up, taping TLP's mouth shut. "Sir, I'm sorry, but I can't have cartoon characters owned by our company saying such things. I'm afraid I'm going to have to take you out of this..." The man claps his hands and two men dressed in white jog in. "Not again..." sighs TLP as he is hauled away*
*Miri now appears from their secret Pig Cave. "Sorry, TLP, is ummm...tied up at the moment, can I take a message?" she asks, cheerily. Guards glare at her and she goes back into the Cave. "Sorry...umm...guys, didn't mean it, really, I promise!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*
Meanwhile...in Rainbow Prison...
"Please, you don't understand! I like my hair the way it is!"
"What...you, you like it?" sniffled a green Color Kid.
"Uhhhh....ohhhh, you know what THAT means!" snickered Red. The Color Kids cracked up and all began chattering madly about Star Sprinkles.
"WHAT? What are you guys gonna do to me? What are Star Sprinkles?"
"AHAHAHA, he doesn't even know!" roared Indigo with laughter.
"KNOW WHAT?" demanded Darien, beginning to tremble.
"OhhhhHHHH, Canarrryyyyyyyy!!!?? Bring me the Star Sprinkles, won't you?"
"Of course, Red, anything you say, Red!"
"Hey, wait!" shouted Pink.
"What is it now?" growled Red.
"Umm, aren't we supposed to get Rainbow Brite's permission to use the Star Sprinkles?"
"HA, I've had that silly girl fooled for years now! She thinks that I love her so she made me this..." he cackled, pulling out his very own Rainbow Belt, as the Color Kids gasped, "She never knew that I was using her to get the power! One day, Rainbow Land will be mine, ALLLL mine, now you remember that, kids! Mwhahahahahahahaha!!"
"Now so fast. Well, well, well, Red! I guess you never really did love me!"
"Rainbow...I can explain, really I can! I um, was just using this here belt to dye this intruder's hair! Honest! SEE? SEE?" he screeched madly, pointing in Darien's direction, "Look at him! He must have brainwashed me! I didn't really mean all those things I said!"
"Oh, right! WhatEVAAAA, Red! I knew it was Brian who loved me all along! Now give me back my belt, you KNOW that you stole in from me!"
"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a dam-"
*DiC executive appears from nowhere and storms in secret Pig Cave..."That's IT! I told you! NO bad language!" Miri looks up guiltily from writing. "But..but..he's Red...Red BUTLER? Get it? Gone With the Wind? Ahehehe.."
"All right, put her in the truck!"
"NO! Pleeaasseeeee, I didn't meanit! Who'll take TLP's messages?" Four executives drag her out of the cave and toss her into the back of a bared white truck. One executive steps up to audience. *Umm, now back to our regularly scheduled programming*
"NEVERRRRRR! This place is going to be ruled by a MAN, you hear me, woman?"
The room turned deathly still, as all of the Color Kids were girls, save two.
"Oh, you've really gone too far this time, Red! HiiiiiiIIIIIIIII-YA!" she screamed, kicking Red onto the floor.
"AHHH...nooooo, my perfect face!"
"Give me MY belt! You chauvinist PIG!!"
They struggled on the floor, each battling for possession of the belt, until a soft "click" echoed through the room. The belt broke in half and Star Sprinkles flew into the air, all over everyone, including Darien and his hair. Darien's hair began to shine brightly for a moment and then radiated thousands of tiny beams of color. Darien's hair was rainbow-y...
"Ohmygod! What have you DONE to me!!??" he sobbed, crumbling to the floor of his rainbow-y cell.
"Hahahha, that's pretty darn funny," commented a Color Kid.
"My...my belt...REEEEDDDD!! Prepare to DIE!"
"Umm, but your highness?"
"Oh, it's too late now, Red!" snickered Rainbow Brite.
Rainbow Brite grinned wickedly. She reached down to the corner of her rainbow-y dress and tore it from herself, revealing herself to be attired in rainbow-y leather with equally rainbow-y thigh-high, stilleto-healed boots. Red's eyes widened.
Rainbow Brite reeled her hand back. Red just now noticed the rainbow-y whip it held. "Call me your queen, knave!"
Red's eyes bugged further out of his head. "Rainbow?"
The crack of a whip sent all of the other Color Kids scurrying to the corner.
"That was your last chance Red. Now, kiss my boot!"
"Yesmyqueen!" shouted Red, jumping forward to lick her slim boot.
The Color Kids collectively sweat dropped.
"Mwahahahahaha!" shouted Rainbow Brite, her laugh progressively getting shriller.
"Take that knave!"
Whip.
"And that!"
Whip.
"Rainbow...please no more..." he whispered.
"Too late for that, loser! Mwhahahahahahah!!" A great rainbow-y beam filled the room and Red was gone.
"Woowwwwww..." chorused the Kids.
"Aahhhh-CHOO!!"
"Aw, shut up, Rainbow Head, stop that sneezing!" screeched Violet, glaring at Darien.
Darien sneezed.
"Hey, check out his hair!" snickered Green, pointing to Darien.
"Oh...no...My hair is...it's PINKKKKKKKKK!!!" cried Darien, falling again to the floor of his cell, sobbing.
"Hey, what's so wrong with Pink?!" demanded the Pink Color Kid.
"It's just so..so..girllllllyyyyy!" wailed Darien, sneezing again.
"Woowwwww...GREEN!" shouted a Color Kid.
"WHAT?" yelled Darien, "AhhhCHOO!"
"Bluuueeeeeee..." chorused the younger Color Kids up front.
"What are you talking about?!"
"Your hair of course," giggled Pink, "It changes color every time you sneeze."
"Nooooo...Ah-ah-ah-AHchOO!"
"It's like the Fourth of July, Indigo!"
"Why do things like this always..ah-ah-ah, happen to me? -CHOO!!"
"Wow! I've never seen lime green THAT bright!"
"Oh, please, you evil Color Kids...leave me to...-ah-ah...dieeeeeeeeeee..-CHOO!"
"Well, this show wasn't very amusing for long, that last mauve color was really no fun..." commented Canary.
"Yeah...well, c'mon, kids! Let's go run color experiments on the dog, shall we?"
"YEAH!!"
"You sinister little brats!" screamed Darien, shaking the rainbow-y lock on his cell.
"Ohhhh, what are you gonna do about it, huh? Blind me with those colors? HA!" taunted the last little Kid out.
"I'll get you for this....-ah-ah-ah-CHOO! Oh, geez, pink again." muttered Darien, sliding into a crouched position in his cell.

*Miri now appears from their secret Pig Cave. "Sorry, TLP, is ummm...tied up at the moment, can I take a message?" she asks, cheerily. Guards glare at her and she goes back into the Cave. "Sorry...umm...guys, didn't mean it, really, I promise!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*
Meanwhile...in Rainbow Prison...
"Please, you don't understand! I like my hair the way it is!"
"What...you, you like it?" sniffled a green Color Kid.
"Uhhhh....ohhhh, you know what THAT means!" snickered Red. The Color Kids cracked up and all began chattering madly about Star Sprinkles.
"WHAT? What are you guys gonna do to me? What are Star Sprinkles?"
"AHAHAHA, he doesn't even know!" roared Indigo with laughter.
"KNOW WHAT?" demanded Darien, beginning to tremble.
"OhhhhHHHH, Canarrryyyyyyyy!!!?? Bring me the Star Sprinkles, won't you?"
"Of course, Red, anything you say, Red!"
"Hey, wait!" shouted Pink.
"What is it now?" growled Red.
"Umm, aren't we supposed to get Rainbow Brite's permission to use the Star Sprinkles?"
"HA, I've had that silly girl fooled for years now! She thinks that I love her so she made me this..." he cackled, pulling out his very own Rainbow Belt, as the Color Kids gasped, "She never knew that I was using her to get the power! One day, Rainbow Land will be mine, ALLLL mine, now you remember that, kids! Mwhahahahahahahaha!!"
"Now so fast. Well, well, well, Red! I guess you never really did love me!"
"Rainbow...I can explain, really I can! I um, was just using this here belt to dye this intruder's hair! Honest! SEE? SEE?" he screeched madly, pointing in Darien's direction, "Look at him! He must have brainwashed me! I didn't really mean all those things I said!"
"Oh, right! WhatEVAAAA, Red! I knew it was Brian who loved me all along! Now give me back my belt, you KNOW that you stole in from me!"
"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a dam-"
*DiC executive appears from nowhere and storms in secret Pig Cave..."That's IT! I told you! NO bad language!" Miri looks up guiltily from writing. "But..but..he's Red...Red BUTLER? Get it? Gone With the Wind? Ahehehe.."
"All right, put her in the truck!"
"NO! Pleeaasseeeee, I didn't meanit! Who'll take TLP's messages?" Four executives drag her out of the cave and toss her into the back of a bared white truck. One executive steps up to audience. *Umm, now back to our regularly scheduled programming*
"NEVERRRRRR! This place is going to be ruled by a MAN, you hear me, woman?"
The room turned deathly still, as all of the Color Kids were girls, save two.
"Oh, you've really gone too far this time, Red! HiiiiiiIIIIIIIII-YA!" she screamed, kicking Red onto the floor.
"AHHH...nooooo, my perfect face!"
"Give me MY belt! You chauvinist PIG!!"
They struggled on the floor, each battling for possession of the belt, until a soft "click" echoed through the room. The belt broke in half and Star Sprinkles flew into the air, all over everyone, including Darien and his hair. Darien's hair began to shine brightly for a moment and then radiated thousands of tiny beams of color. Darien's hair was rainbow-y...
"Ohmygod! What have you DONE to me!!??" he sobbed, crumbling to the floor of his rainbow-y cell.
"Hahahha, that's pretty darn funny," commented a Color Kid.
"My...my belt...REEEEDDDD!! Prepare to DIE!"
"Umm, but your highness?"
"Oh, it's too late now, Red!" snickered Rainbow Brite.
Rainbow Brite grinned wickedly. She reached down to the corner of her rainbow-y dress and tore it from herself, revealing herself to be attired in rainbow-y leather with equally rainbow-y thigh-high, stilleto-healed boots. Red's eyes widened.
Rainbow Brite reeled her hand back. Red just now noticed the rainbow-y whip it held. "Call me your queen, knave!"
Red's eyes bugged further out of his head. "Rainbow?"
The crack of a whip sent all of the other Color Kids scurrying to the corner.
"That was your last chance Red. Now, kiss my boot!"
"Yesmyqueen!" shouted Red, jumping forward to lick her slim boot.
The Color Kids collectively sweat dropped.
"Mwahahahahaha!" shouted Rainbow Brite, her laugh progressively getting shriller.
"Take that knave!"
Whip.
"And that!"
Whip.
"Rainbow...please no more..." he whispered.
"Too late for that, loser! Mwhahahahahahah!!" A great rainbow-y beam filled the room and Red was gone.
"Woowwwwww..." chorused the Kids.
"Aahhhh-CHOO!!"
"Aw, shut up, Rainbow Head, stop that sneezing!" screeched Violet, glaring at Darien.
Darien sneezed.
"Hey, check out his hair!" snickered Green, pointing to Darien.
"Oh...no...My hair is...it's PINKKKKKKKKK!!!" cried Darien, falling again to the floor of his cell, sobbing.
"Hey, what's so wrong with Pink?!" demanded the Pink Color Kid.
"It's just so..so..girllllllyyyyy!" wailed Darien, sneezing again.
"Woowwwww...GREEN!" shouted a Color Kid.
"WHAT?" yelled Darien, "AhhhCHOO!"
"Bluuueeeeeee..." chorused the younger Color Kids up front.
"What are you talking about?!"
"Your hair of course," giggled Pink, "It changes color every time you sneeze."
"Nooooo...Ah-ah-ah-AHchOO!"
"It's like the Fourth of July, Indigo!"
"Why do things like this always..ah-ah-ah, happen to me? -CHOO!!"
"Wow! I've never seen lime green THAT bright!"
"Oh, please, you evil Color Kids...leave me to...-ah-ah...dieeeeeeeeeee..-CHOO!"
"Well, this show wasn't very amusing for long, that last mauve color was really no fun..." commented Canary.
"Yeah...well, c'mon, kids! Let's go run color experiments on the dog, shall we?"
"YEAH!!"
"You sinister little brats!" screamed Darien, shaking the rainbow-y lock on his cell.
"Ohhhh, what are you gonna do about it, huh? Blind me with those colors? HA!" taunted the last little Kid out.
"I'll get you for this....-ah-ah-ah-CHOO! Oh, geez, pink again." muttered Darien, sliding into a crouched position in his cell.
