Back with Hamtaro and the rest of them...
"Finally," Mike sighed. "We're at ZapHunst." Hamtaro looked out the window. They were in a parking lot with a big building in front of the lot. "That's the capital building," Alaine told them. Stella looked at Mike and he shook his head. "How 'bout you all go somewhere for an hour and we'll meet you back here?" Mike demanded. Hamtaro replied, "OK."
Hamtaro, Caitlin, and Alaine got out of the car and started toward the mall. When they entered, Caitlin gasped at the sight. It had carts that floated and the stores were numerous. Hamtaro sighed and followed the two girls.
With Mike and Stella...
"What's the plan?" Stella mumbled as she and Mike crept toward the building. "I got another plan for once things go back to normal," he replied quietly. "You've told me," she remarked. "Not this one, it's grand, but we're going to have to get transportation," Mike responded, "for the Bad Hams."
Mike and Stella crept inside and went to the desk. "Can we speak to your leader?" Stella asked. "Appointment?" the desk clerk asked. "We're from Earth and we don't know how to get back," Mike responded. The desk clerk shook her head and said, "Last room on the right."
The two raced toward that room. On the door, it said, "Mr. Joe." Mike pushed open the door and Mr. Joe was sitting at his desk. "I didn't expect anyone at this time," he responded toward Mike. "We're from Earth and we dunno how to get back," Stella muttered. Mr. Joe shook his head and said, "There's someone else who came by here that was from Earth. We're launching a space shuttle and-" "We need to ride on it!" Mike boomed. "And who else came by?" "I was just about to say you could," he mumbled. "I dunno what the guy's name was, but I'm for certain he knows you." "Really?!" Stella yelled. Mr. Joe shook his head and replied, "He's staying in the room upstairs on the first left."
Mike and Stella raced out and noticed they'd used up their hour. "It'd probably be better anyhow if we got Hamtaro and them," Mike mumbled reluctantly.
The two darted off toward the car and found Hamtaro, Caitlin, and Alaine. "We think we found him!" Stella shouted. "We talked to the capital's leader and he said he stayed there!" "OK, gang, let's go," Caitlin said.
They all sped toward the capital building and entered. Mike and Stella led the way followed closely by Caitlin. When they got to the door, Hamtaro and Caitlin knocked. Mike and Stella stood to the back. The doorknob turned, but it was not Boss at the door. It was Mr. Joe. "You little," Stella said and pushed Hamtaro and Caitlin out of her way and he stepped back with hesitation. But Stella had no hesitation. She socked him in the stomach, and when he bent down, Stella struck him in the nose. "I thought you'd already been here," Mr. Joe muttered. "He just checked out. But he's going to be at the space shuttle and on it."
"I wish we'd already been there," Mike mumbled. "But you hate him," Hamtaro told him. "I know, but it's no fun to take over y'all because he was gone!" he yelled. "There's no challenge!"
"The festival is starting!" Alaine yelled an hour later. Alaine boarded her skateboard while the other four got on the other one. They rode down and when they saw the space shuttle was boarding, Hamtaro saw something he'd never forget.
Hamtaro stood as he saw Boss climb up the stairs and sneak in the shuttle as quickly as Hamtaro had seen him. "C'mon," he mumbled, "we need to get on." "Why?" Caitlin questioned. Hamtaro then told them what he saw.
"Whoa," Alaine said, "I came here and immediately, my friends saw their ride home..." She had a sad look in her eyes. "What's wrong, Alaine?" Caitlin asked. "I won't be able to see or talk to you again, will I?" she questioned. They shook their heads. "I hope you have a s-sa-afe t- tr-tr-" Alaine took off running as she bawled. Hamtaro stepped forward, but Mike mumbled, "Let Alaine go."
Hamtaro led as they all climbed on the stairs upward. I hoped I'd see Alaine before we left, he thought as he saw Mr. Joe go up to a microphone and say, "Five minutes until the space shuttle takes off!"
The four picked up their pace and heard him say, "One minute now!" Hamtaro, Caitlin, Mike, and Stella flew like lightning toward the door as it began to slowly shut. Stella was the last in line, so she made it barely before the door shut all the way.
"That was too close to be comfortable," Stella mumbled. "That?" Caitlin shouted. "I'm too close to these maniacs to be comfortable!" "I have to agree," Hamtaro muttered. "Who ye calling maniacs?" Mike murmured. "You two!" the Ham-Hams shouted. "We'll give ye maniac..." the two mumbled. Mike and Stella gave them the stink eye and stepped forward. "OK," Hamtaro muttered, "that IS too close for comfort. Say, let's just forget..."
Mike said, "You really think of us as maniacs-wha?!" "What is is?" Stella shouted. "There's a," he mumbled. There was a black car that looked exactly the same as earlier, a police car, and a school bus. "I gotta have 'em all!" he shouted. "That's funny," Stella mumbled, "isn't that like Pokemon? You know, 'Gotta catch 'em all'?"
"Let's forget these two," Caitlin told Hamtaro. He shook his head and the two traveled the space shuttle. They had already taken off and hadn't even noticed. "Hamtaro..." she mumbled as they started to float. "There's no gravity! What now?!"
"Dumb no gravity," Mike mumbled as he held onto the mirror of the black car. "I wanna name this car Lil' Mikey." "That's great," Stella shouted as she looked down. The cars were chained down to the floor, so they couldn't float.
Hamtaro and Caitlin floated back to Mike and Stella. "Gosh," Hamtaro mumbled, "it's called greed. And looks like Mike has a lot of it." "Duh!" Mike shouted. "I'm half rich! Well, I'm half over rich."
Stella muttered, "Can I get in that car?" "It's name?" Mike yelled. She sighed and shouted, "Can I get in Lil' Mikey?" "Sure," he replied. "Why does he give it a name?" Caitlin asked Hamtaro. "It's called greed," he repeated.
"What kind of car is this?" Stella asked once inside. "Lamborgini," he replied proudly. Hamtaro and Caitlin opened the door and Caitlin mumbled, "You are right about his greed."
"Finally," Mike sighed. "We're at ZapHunst." Hamtaro looked out the window. They were in a parking lot with a big building in front of the lot. "That's the capital building," Alaine told them. Stella looked at Mike and he shook his head. "How 'bout you all go somewhere for an hour and we'll meet you back here?" Mike demanded. Hamtaro replied, "OK."
