A/N: I own Nothing. Nothing I own. Lalalalala (does a tap dance)

Chapter 6: The Great Mouse Detective and a Message.....

Basil: Okay, I can stop narrating now, since I'm actually in the story. Well.......almost. Let's show one more scene first......

(near the castle)

Clarabelle: Alright Iago, they're leaving. Let's follow them!

Iago: Can anyone say stalking?!

Clarabelle: Come now. Don't be silly. This isn't stalking, it's merely covering a story.......

Iago: Whatever. (they go off and follow Merlin and co.)

(on a dimly lit street in Toontown........just after dusk)

Donald: Are we there yet?

Merlin: Almost. (looks at a map) Aha, here we are. 221 Baker Street.

Goofy: If you have magic powers, then how come we had to walk here? Couldn't you magically teleport us?

Donald: Yeah!

Merlin: You know, magic doesn't solve everything. If we let magic do everything for us, why, we'd be worthless individuals.

Alice: (looks in the window) Oh, my. Melin, is our fifth party member the great Sherlock Holmes?!

Merlin: Afraid not Alice. I believe you are looking at the wrong 221 Baker Street.

Goofy: Ahyuk, well then where's the other one?

Merlin: Well, we'll need some minor adjustments before we can see that. Higgitus Figgitus!

(the whole party shrinks down to the size of........a mouse!)

Alice: (has the strangest sense of deja vu) Oh dear.

Donald: Okay, so we can't use magic to get to the house, but we can to come get our fifth party member?! I don't understand your sick, twisted sense of logic!

Merlin: Well, I'm afraid we'd frighten the poor fellow. (goes and knocks on the door)

Housekeeper: (answers it) Why hello there. May I help you?

(she gives them an odd look)

Merlin: Yes, we're hear to see Mr. Basil.

Housekeeper: He's not here right now.....perhaps you'd like to wait inside until he gets in)

Merlin: Well, I don't want to intrude......

Housekeeper: No, no. It's fine.(she lets them in)

Care for some tea or crumpets?

All but Donald: No thank you.

Donald: Yes please.

Alice: (hits him) It's very rude to impose upon our hostess.

Housekeeper: Oh no, it's not a problem. So......what brings you here?

Goofy: We're-

Merlin: (covers Goofy's mouth) We're here on top-secret business.

Housekeeper: I see....well, I'll be back. (goes off into the kitchen)

(the four guests have a seat on the couches and chairs in the room)

Alice: I don't believe she likes us very much.

Merlin: Oh no, no. She just wasn't expecting company.

Goofy: Ahyuk, why is our mission so top secret?

Merlin: No one must know we are in search of the King. Just think how disastrous it would be if the villains knew.

Alice: Oh, dear!

Donald: Ah, villains schmillains. They're no match for us.

Alice: So, Merlin. Who exactly is this character we're picking up?

Merlin: His name is Basil.

(collective gasp)

Goofy: It can't be-

Alice: Certainly not-

Donald: Isn't he the one who-

Merlin: Yes, yes. We all know what happened. Unfortunately his heroic deeds and outstanding logic are often overshadowed by his notorious failure.

Goofy: But I thought he was exiled....

Merlin: No, he merely left his position. Rumors are a nasty thing aren't they.

(the door opens to reveal Basil, he walks in)

Basil: Hello all. (looks around and has a double take) Wait....what are all you doing-

Merlin: Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Merlin, wizard extraordinaire! And this is Donald, Goofy and Alice.

Basil: Pleasure....but why are you-

Merlin: We are here to request a favor of you. We are representing Queen Minnie of the Fantasmic Kingdom and are-

Basil: Oh, no. Leave! Go! Don't want anything to do with you!

Merlin: But if you'll just-

Basil: OUT!

Merlin: Mr. Basil-

Basil: Are you deaf?! Go away! Leave me be! I'm done working for the kingdom.

Merlin: I don't want to do this, but.....Higgitus Figgitus!

(a magical piece of duct tape covers Basil's mouth. He tries to take it off, but alas, it doesn't work.)

Merlin: Now, will you kindly have a seat and listen to me?

(Basil sits, slightly afraid of the strange wizard man)

Merlin: We are here on a quest, and we need your assistance. It seems as though our leader, Mickey mouse has been-

Goofy: (covers Merlin's mouth) Ahyuk, that's top secret.

Donald: Ah, shut up.

Merlin: My thoughts exactly.

Goofy: (is confused)

Merlin: Well, Mickey has been kidnapped and it is our job to find them. Now, I have been carefully analyzing the citizens of our kingdom to see the five most equipped people to solve this little mystery and save Mickey, and it seems you stood out. So, are you in.

Basil: (points to the duct tape)

Merlin: Oh, yes, sorry. (removes it)

Basil: Absolutely not! Never in a million years.

(a few minutes later outside Basil's house)

Basil: I can't believe I'm doing this.

Alice: Um, Merlin, sir. Would you mind putting us back to our regular size.

Merlin: Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Higgitus Figgitus! (they all grow back to normal size)

Basil: Bloody hell! I'm a giant!

Merlin: Oops, better be putting you back to regular size.

Alice: Oh, could you leave him the way it is. Otherwise it would be impossible to get around!

Merlin: Oh, I suppose.

Basil: Yay! I mean, I suppose if I must be in this little plot, it's the least you can do.

Merlin: Well then, let's be off!

Goofy: Err....to where?!

Donald: Yeah, did ya think about that genius?!

Merlin: Oh yes......I don't quite know where to start.

(there is a mystical orb of light)

Goofy (runs to it) Shiny!

Donald: Stop! You don't know what it is! It could be eeeeeeeviiiil!

Goofy: (hugs the orb)

(the orb reveals itself to be Titania)

Titania: (pushes Goofy) Get your slimy mortal paws off me!

Donald: Who's that?

Alice: (walks up to her) Are you an angel?

Titania: Not even. Okay, listen. I am here to help you.

Donald: Help us what?!

Titania: Find Mickey you igmus!

Donald: Oh, yeah........

Titania: Anyway, your first step to finding the mouse lies in a field. Quiet and serene is this field, but within it, something unusual lies. Yes, a white rabbit in a trenchcoat runs. Follow him, and closer to Mickey you shall be. (disappears)

Alice: Oh, no. Not there!

Basil: Where?!

Alice: (cries) Wonderland!

Merlin: Well, let's start walking.

Donald: Umm....Merlin, don't you think this is kind of an urgent situation.

Merlin: Yes Donald. Why?

Donald: Well, shouldn't magically get ourselves there before Mickey winds up dead?!

Merlin: You've got a point. Higgitus Figgitus! (they disappear and teleport to Alice's House)

(meanwhile, in Wonderland....)

Mysterious Shadowy Figure: (dumps Mickey from the bag) We're here.

Mickey: Why are you doing this you cruel, cruel individual!

Mysterious Shadowy Figure: Because I hate you that's why!

Mickey: (cries)

Mysterious Shadowy Figure: (kicks Mickey) Shut up! Soon, you'll be out of your misery! Muah hahahahahahaha (coughing spell) Muah hahahahahahahaaaaaaa
