Muriel and Vindaloo are skipping down the path.The sun starts to set. It starts gets chilly and creepy. Courage starts to shake and whine. Eustace kicks Courage in the behind.

Courage: Ouch!

Eustace: (threatingly): Stupid Dog! Stop being the leader, or you'll be sorry!

Muriel: Eustace! Leave him alone!

Eustace: Make me you stupid blue dressed panzie!

Muriel whales Eustace in the head with her basket. It hits Eustace in the head with a harsh thud and he collapes to the ground from the blow.

Eustace: What's in that basket?! Blocks of brick?

Muriel: No. Its a whole basket full of rolling pins. You never know when you'll need em' on an outing like this one.

Courage: At least she didn't bring her whole collection, all 426 of them!

Just then a big cloud of orange smoke blocks the path of the group. When the smoke clears Ma the witch appears holding a pair of neck cuffs.

Ma: Well,well,well if it isn't the rude old lady ,her pathetic cute mutt, and two other sore losers!

Eustace: But Ma I'm your son!

Ma: Silence!

Ma snaps her fingers and an evil six foot tall canadian goose appears and starts to chew on Eustace's head. It bites,snaps, and hisses cruely. Eustace screams as though its the end of the world. The pain is extreme and utterly unbearable. The goose bites Eustace's left arm and pulls it out of his socket! Courage screams at the site of it and goes into shock.

Muriel: I like gooses, but your a cruel evil disgrace to cute and friendy ones!

Vindaloo: If I only had a brain I could help.

Eustace's mallet falls out of his pocket. Muriel picks it up and hits the goose. It squaks as it falls over, releasing Eustace.It flys away.

Ma: You again! You always mess up my plan! Alright thats it! No more wasting time!

Ma grabs Muriel and jumps on her broom stick and they fly away to the castle. Courage awakens and views in horror as Muriel disapears into the horizon. Eustace puts his arm back in its socket, and Vindaloo is banging his head off of a willow tree, since is brain is vacant and he doesn't know any better.

Vindaloo: (deliriously) Little blue boy come shuck your corn, the cow's in the meadow and the sheep ate your corn! Where is sheep who ate my corn? Ashes Ashes we all fell down!

Eustace: Hey Scarecrow, want something do ya?

Vindaloo shakes his heads yes.Eustace pulls out a mask.

Eustace: Oooga Booga Booga!

Vindaloo screams, Courage jumps into his arms and also screams.

Eustace: Stupid mindless quack doctor and dog!

The three continue down the path, with another problem added to their list. How will they save Muriel?
