[CHAPTER 5: COLOSSUS]
Spyro the Dragon and Nazza the Blue Wolf left Idol Springs.
'Where to now?' asked Nazza.
'Colossus,' said Spyro.
'Which one's that one?' asked Nazza.
'The one with the guys who chant and for some reason like their goats to hover in the air.'
'Ah, *that* one.'
They walked over to the portal.
'Look, there's Moneybags,' said Nazza.
'Where?'
'Just over there. Oh no! He's running toward us! His fat's wobbling! IT'S HIDEOUS!'
'RUN!'
Spyro and Nazza ran into the portal, and arrived in Colossus.
'That was a close one,' said Spyro.
'Tell me about it,' said Nazza.
One of those chanting guys ran over to Spyro and Nazza. 'Hello Spyro, hello -'
'Nazza,' said Nazza.
'Hello Nazza,' said the monk. 'Could you two please help me?'
'Sure,' said Spyro. 'What's the problem?'
'I have this big itch on my back, do you think you could scratch it?'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Once Spyro had scratched the monk's back (much to his dismay), the monk turned around again.
'Anything else?' said Spyro.
'Yeah,' said the monk. 'If you could follow me...'
They followed the monk to a hidden building hidden somewhere in Colossus (can't tell you or else it wouldn't remain hidden). They found a table, with several monks sitting down.
At the table.
'Here are our saviours,' said the monk.
'Yay!' said one monk.
'Shut up!' said the one next to him.
'Sorry.'
'We have two jobs for you,' said the monk.
'I see,' said Nazza.
'No, you don't see,' said the monk. 'See, there's been these ghosts flying around. They like to spook things.'
'Okay,' said Nazza.
'And there's also a new breed of yeti,' said the monk.
'I see,' said Spyro.
'No, you don't see,' said the monk. 'See, there's been these -'
'Uh, I think you're reading the wrong page of the script,' said Spyro.
'I see,' said the monk.
'No, you don't see,' said Nazza. 'See -'
'Uh, could everyone turn to page 10 in the script please,' said Spyro.
'Ah,' said the monk. 'Okay. There's also a new breed of yeti. They have invaded the stage, and we need to get rid of them.'
'I'll take the new breed of yeti mission,' said Spyro.
'That leaves me with the ghost mission,' said Nazza.
'Oh, and here's a key,' said the monk.
'What for?' asked Spyro.
'I don't know, I just found it. Oh, it's for accepting the missions.'
=============================1 Key(s) Found==============================
'Okay,' said the monk. 'Now Nazza, you go with Bob, and Spyro you can come with me.'
Bob walked over to Nazza. 'So, Nazza, are you ready for the mission?'
'Yeah,' said Nazza. 'I'm ready.'
'Follow me,' said Bob. As they began to walk out of the hidden building, Bob briefed Nazza. 'Well, the professor had found a hidden chamber the other day. Inside this chamber were several small tubes. Fourteen, to be exact.'
'Uh-huh.'
'The professor thought they might be a strange artifact, that inside the tube there might be something valuable or ancient. Or both.'
'Yeah.'
'So he took these tubes to the hockey field, and the Summer Forest hockey team whacked the tubes until they were cracking.'
'That's strange.'
'I know. The professor went up to his little "room" near the hockey field, and broke open the tubes, and these fourteen ghosts came out.'
'What did they look like?'
'The professor will tell you. That's why we're walking to the professor's "room".'
'I see.'
'And these ghosts have been annoying everyone since they were released. The professor, being the professor, decided he could catch them, so he sent for Spyro.'
'And me.'
'No, not really.'
'Damn, why doesn't anyone know my name here?'
'Maybe because you haven't saved this place before.'
'But I've saved other places before!'
'Give me an example.'
'No.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Okay,' said the monk. 'Now Nazza, you go with Bob, and Spyro you can come with me.'
Spyro walked over to the monk, and they left the hidden building an alternate way to Nazza and Bob.
'So, what's the mission,' said Spyro. 'Give me a debriefing.'
'Okay,' said the monk. He grabbed Spyro's invisible underpants and ripped them off.
'I didn't mean it like that!' said Spyro angrily.
'Oh. How did you mean it?'
'Tell me what I have to do for the mission!'
'Well, I'm going to take you to this little hut to show you what the new breed of yeti is like.'
'Tell me what I have to do while we're walking.'
'Well, you'll be with a champion yeti-hunter. It seems the new breed have come down from the himalayas and invaded the snowier regions of Colossus.'
'Okay.'
'There's a small colony, about thirty yetis, and you and the yeti-hunter have to hunt them down and kill them.'
'Cool.'
They walked into a big building, jumped onto a moving wooden head that acted like an elevator, jumped off, and found a small hut with a big tough-looking cat outside.
'The yeti's in there,' said the cat.
'Hello Randall, have you heard of Spyro?'
'Why no I haven't,' said the cat, whose name was apparently Randall.
'Well, he's saved Summer Forest, Winter Tundra *and* Autumn Plains, all at once.'
'Interesting,' said Randall.
'He's here to help you exterminate the yetis,' said the monk.
'In that case, I'll take you to my cabin,' said Randall.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They arrived at the professor's little "room".
'Who is this, Bob?' said the professor.
'It's Nazza,' said Bob. 'He's here about the ghosts mission.'
'Ah, Nazza!' said the professor. 'I've heard so much about you!'
'Really?'
'Uh...a bit...but the point is, you're here.'
'What do I have to do?' asked Nazza.
'See these backpack things here?'
'The ones with the vacuumy things on them?'
'Yes,' said the professor. 'These will capture the ghosts and put them into new tubes, this time made of plastic.'
'Doesn't plastic break easily?' asked Nazza.
'No...' said the professor. 'At least, I don't think so...'
'So, am I going to catch the ghosts alone?'
'Why of course not,' said the professor. 'Bob's also going to help out.'
'Okay,' said Nazza. He picked up one of the backpacks, put it on, and held the vacuum nozzle.
'So this vacuum catches the ghosts?'
'Yeah,' said the professor.
'I don't like this,' said Nazza. 'I have to stand upright.'
Bob put on the backpack. 'Let's go.'
-A MINUTE OR SO LATER -
'If there's something strange, and it don't look good, who you gonna call?'
'DUSTBUSTERS!' shouted Nazza. 'I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They arrived at Randall's cabin.
'So, how many yetis are there that we have to kill?' asked Spyro.
'About thirty in the tribe,' said Randall. 'That's roughly fifteen for each of us.'
'Cool,' said Spyro.
'Here's a tranquiliser gun,' said Randall, picking one up and holding it out for Spyro to grab.
'No thanks,' said Spyro. 'I'll just use my firebreath.'
'Okay then,' said Randall. 'Let's go hunt some orc - I mean, yeti!'
-A MINUTE OR SO LATER -
'If there's big yetis, and they don't look good, who you gonna call?'
'BALLBUSTERS!' shouted Spyro. 'I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS! I mean, YETI EXTERMINATORS!'
One of the residents walked past and said to his friend, 'I think Spyro's been poppin' to many pills.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Bob and Nazza walked around, looking for ghosts.
'Where would they most likely be?' asked Nazza.
'Somewhere annoying someone,' said Bob. 'I'd say our best bet is to go into the city.'
'Okay then,' said Nazza.
As they entered the city, he could vaguely hear someone singing 'Ghostbusters' except instead of shouting 'Ghostbusters' they were shouting 'Yeti Exterminators'.
'There's one!' shouted Bob.
Nazza noticed a big giant green ghost trying to pick up a house. However, the house wasn't budging.
'Here, let me help you,' said a giant. He stepped over, crushing several people, and lifted the house up. 'There you go.'
'Quick, shoot it!' said Bob.
They aimed, took fire and shot beams at it. The ghost was sucked into Bob's vacuum cleaner, and trapped in one of the tubes.
'A job well done,' said Bob.
'Hey, where'd my ghost-friend go?' said the giant. 'Oh well. I'll go take a nap now.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro followed Randall.
'The camp's in the woods,' said Randall.
'The woods are straight in front of us,' said Spyro.
'There's a giant over there,' said Randall.
The two turned around and watched as a giant ripped out one of the houses and gave it to a green ghost. Then two laser beams shot up and sucked the ghost up.
'Hey, where'd my ghost-friend go?' said the giant. They could hear him because, well, he was a giant. 'Oh well, I'll go take a nap now.'
'Look,' said Randall. 'There's the yeti camp!'
'It's band camp!' said Spyro.
'Not really,' said Randall.
Randall loaded up his tranquiliser gun, took aim, and CLICK! The tranquiliser dart hit one of the yetis. He instantly fell asleep.
'Jolly good shot,' said Spyro.
'Yes, it was a rather good shot, wasn't it.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Nazza and Bob walked around the town, looking for ghosts.
'Well, we've got one,' said Bob. 'That's good so far.'
'Aargh!' shouted someone, who was running around frantically. 'There's a big green ghost in the book store!'
-A MINUTE OR SO LATER -
The door of the bookstore burst open, and the sun shone in, revealing Bob and Nazza. 'Who you gonna call?'
'DUSTBUSTERS! I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
The green ghost looked up from its snack of encyclopedias, and saw the blue wolf and monk. 'Me eat you up! Me eat you up!'
'I don't think so, ghosty!' said Nazza. Bob and Nazza sucked the green ghost up.
'Another easy trap,' said Bob.
'Yep.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall looked around. 'There are three more at the camp right now,' said Randall.
'I do have eyes, you know,' said Spyro.
'I'll take down the big one, then you flame the two smaller ones, okay?'
'Okay.'
Randall loaded the tranquiliser gun, took aim, and shot at one yeti which had its back to the two. It fell down, and Randall noticed the tree in front of it was wet.
'That's gross,' said Spyro. He ran out, and started wildly shooting flames at the two yetis. They were set on fire, and a few minutes later, they were charred and black.
'Roast yeti, anyone?'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "ghostbusters" walked through the town. 'Two down, eight more to go,' said Nazza.
'I should do this more often,' said Bob.
'Where else do you reckon the ghosts would be?'
'Let's check near the forest,' Bob suggested.
'Okay,' said Nazza.
They walked over near the forest, and found another green ghost terrifying a group of school cats.
'Hey, greenboy!' shouted Nazza. 'Take this!'
He shot a laser at the ghost, and it was sucked into the vacuum, and trapped in another of the tubes.
'Could this get any easier?' said Bob.
'Probably,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "Yeti exterminators" walked through the forest, looking for yetis. Suddenly, two yetis appeared and attacked them.
'How convenient,' said Randall. Spyro shot out a burst of flames and began running around in circles shouting 'WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP.'
By the time Spyro had finished his bout of temporary insanity, he noticed that the two yetis were burnt to a crisp.
Randall didn't look too good either. 'Sorry about that...'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "ghostbusters" entered the forest. 'Now, to find ourselves another ghost,' said Bob.
'Who you gonna call? A PSYCHIC WHO KNOWS THE FUTURE! I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
They continued walking through the forest, then found a yeti lying down near a wet tree, with a tranquiliser dart on the back of its knee.
'Strange,' said Bob.
'Look at this,' said Nazza. He was crouching over a charred, burnt dead corpse of a yeti.
'That's even stranger,' said Bob. 'And look, there's two corpses.'
'Oh no,' said Nazza. 'Could it be...'
'*GASP* Could it be...what?'
'Could it be...the blair yeti-killer?'
DUN DUN DUN
'Look!' said Bob. 'Even more strange!'
He pointed, and Nazza looked. One of the green ghosts was leaning against a tree, and a strange yellow liquid was pouring over the tree. From the ghost.
'My turn,' said Bob. 'Who you gonna call?'
'BLADDER CONTROL!'
Bob sucked up the ghost. Even when it was in the vacuum a strange yellow liquid seeped out.
'Eww!' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Mission Log: So far we've taken down six of the thirty yetis.'
'Uh, Randall?' said Spyro. 'How come you're talking into a small log?'
'Never mind,' said Randall, throwing the log away. 'See any more yetis?'
'Not yet,' said Spyro. 'Hey look, there's a tunnel in this forest.'
'I'll bet the rest of the yetis are down there.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They walked around the forest, as night slowly crept upon them.
'I'm scared that the blair yeti-killer is going to kill me,' said Nazza.
'You're not a yeti, are you?'
'No.'
'Then you have nothing to worry about.'
Suddenly four ghosts appeared. 'Aargh!' shouted Nazza. 'It's the Blair Ghost!'
Suddenly the ghosts started talking at once. 'We are the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. And the ghost of this fat guy who died on Christmas Day.'
'Quick! Suck 'em!' shouted Bob.
Nazza and Bob quickly sucked up two of the ghosts. 'No!' shouted one of the two left. 'The ghosts of Christmas past and present are gone, but the future will remain!'
'Nope,' said Bob, who sucked up the ghost of Christmas future.
Nazza tried to suck up the ghost of the fat man, but he wouldn't seem to fit. 'He - doesn't - seem - to fit - and he's - struggling - to get - out -' Nazza managed to say, with the vacuum tube moving about wildly in his arms.
'This should help,' said Bob. He removed the tube from the vacuum pipe, then flipped to reverse, and helped push the ghost into the vacuum.
'That's better,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall were surrounded by eight yetis.
'Now would be a good time for you to use your firebreath,' said Randall.
'I can't!' said Spyro. 'I'm out of firebreath!'
'Great time for you to lose your firebreath, Spyro,' said Randall sarcastically.
'What do we do now?'
'Time for Samurai Randall to return!' said Randall. He drew a samurai sword out of nowhere. 'Hiya! Ya! Ya!'
Three yetis' heads were sliced clean off.
'Ya! Ya! Ya!'
Three yetis were devoid of legs.
'Ya! Ya! Ya - wait, there's only two left, not three.'
'You were about to slice me horizontally in half,' said Spyro. 'A good thing you realised before you did.'
'Yeah, hehe,' said Randall. He looked around at the bits of chopped up yeti. 'So, what do you think of my ninja skills?'
'You're a ninja? Well, it was alright I guess.'
'That's good. Now let's find the rest of the yetis.'
'No.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Nazza and Bob roamed the forest in the dark. 'How many more ghosts do we need to catch?' asked Nazza.
'Six,' said Bob.
'Look! There's six ghosts having a camp fire!'
'Hey ghosts!' shouted Bob. 'Over here!'
Nazza and Bob instantly sucked up two ghosts, then two more.
'Just two left,' said Bob. 'They're big ones too.'
It took them a whole two minutes to suck up the last two ghosts. 'I believe that's all fourteen,' said Bob. 'Let's go back to the professor.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall found another room, and a whopping twelve yetis.
'Samurai time,' said Randall.
'Can I have the tranquiliser gun?' asked Spyro.
'Yeah, sure, here you go.'
-A FEW MINUTES LATER-
'Well, that's all of the yetis,' said Randall.
'Yep,' said Spyro. 'Let's go back.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Ah, I see you and Nazza have collected all eight ghosts,' said the professor. 'Here's a key for your efforts.'
==============================2 Keys Found==============================
'Let's go back to the hidden building,' said Bob.
'Yeah,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Here's a key for helping get rid of the yetis,' said Randall.
==============================3 Keys Found==============================
'I'm gonna go back to the hidden building,' said Spyro.
'Yeah,' said Randall. 'I'll go back to my cabin.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro arrived back at the hidden building to find Nazza already there.
'You got the key?' asked Spyro.
'Yep,' said Nazza, holding up the key.
'Now we just need one for the gems,' said Spyro.
'I can help you there,' said one of the monks. 'See, we keep all the gems for safe-keeping. So we can just give you the key for nothing.'
==============================4 Keys Found==============================
'Now, let's go,' said Spyro.
'Yeah.'
'Nah.'

Spyro the Dragon and Nazza the Blue Wolf left Idol Springs.

'Colossus,' said Spyro.
'Which one's that one?' asked Nazza.
'The one with the guys who chant and for some reason like their goats to hover in the air.'
'Ah, *that* one.'
They walked over to the portal.
'Look, there's Moneybags,' said Nazza.
'Where?'
'Just over there. Oh no! He's running toward us! His fat's wobbling! IT'S HIDEOUS!'
'RUN!'
Spyro and Nazza ran into the portal, and arrived in Colossus.
'That was a close one,' said Spyro.
'Tell me about it,' said Nazza.
One of those chanting guys ran over to Spyro and Nazza. 'Hello Spyro, hello -'
'Nazza,' said Nazza.
'Hello Nazza,' said the monk. 'Could you two please help me?'
'Sure,' said Spyro. 'What's the problem?'
'I have this big itch on my back, do you think you could scratch it?'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Once Spyro had scratched the monk's back (much to his dismay), the monk turned around again.
'Anything else?' said Spyro.
'Yeah,' said the monk. 'If you could follow me...'
They followed the monk to a hidden building hidden somewhere in Colossus (can't tell you or else it wouldn't remain hidden). They found a table, with several monks sitting down.

'I see,' said Nazza.
'No, you don't see,' said the monk. 'See, there's been these ghosts flying around. They like to spook things.'
'Okay,' said Nazza.
'And there's also a new breed of yeti,' said the monk.

'Uh, I think you're reading the wrong page of the script,' said Spyro.

'What for?' asked Spyro.
'I don't know, I just found it. Oh, it's for accepting the missions.'
=============================1 Key(s) Found==============================
'Okay,' said the monk. 'Now Nazza, you go with Bob, and Spyro you can come with me.'
Bob walked over to Nazza. 'So, Nazza, are you ready for the mission?'

They walked into a big building, jumped onto a moving wooden head that acted like an elevator, jumped off, and found a small hut with a big tough-looking cat outside.

They arrived at the professor's little "room".
'Who is this, Bob?' said the professor.
'It's Nazza,' said Bob. 'He's here about the ghosts mission.'
'Ah, Nazza!' said the professor. 'I've heard so much about you!'
'Really?'
'Uh...a bit...but the point is, you're here.'

'DUSTBUSTERS!' shouted Nazza. 'I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They arrived at Randall's cabin.
'So, how many yetis are there that we have to kill?' asked Spyro.
'About thirty in the tribe,' said Randall. 'That's roughly fifteen for each of us.'
'Cool,' said Spyro.
'Here's a tranquiliser gun,' said Randall, picking one up and holding it out for Spyro to grab.
'No thanks,' said Spyro. 'I'll just use my firebreath.'

Bob and Nazza walked around, looking for ghosts.
'Where would they most likely be?' asked Nazza.
'Somewhere annoying someone,' said Bob. 'I'd say our best bet is to go into the city.'
'Okay then,' said Nazza.
As they entered the city, he could vaguely hear someone singing 'Ghostbusters' except instead of shouting 'Ghostbusters' they were shouting 'Yeti Exterminators'.
'There's one!' shouted Bob.
Nazza noticed a big giant green ghost trying to pick up a house. However, the house wasn't budging.
'Here, let me help you,' said a giant. He stepped over, crushing several people, and lifted the house up. 'There you go.'
'Quick, shoot it!' said Bob.
They aimed, took fire and shot beams at it. The ghost was sucked into Bob's vacuum cleaner, and trapped in one of the tubes.
'A job well done,' said Bob.
'Hey, where'd my ghost-friend go?' said the giant. 'Oh well. I'll go take a nap now.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro followed Randall.
'The camp's in the woods,' said Randall.
'The woods are straight in front of us,' said Spyro.
'There's a giant over there,' said Randall.
The two turned around and watched as a giant ripped out one of the houses and gave it to a green ghost. Then two laser beams shot up and sucked the ghost up.
'Hey, where'd my ghost-friend go?' said the giant. They could hear him because, well, he was a giant. 'Oh well, I'll go take a nap now.'
'Look,' said Randall. 'There's the yeti camp!'
'It's band camp!' said Spyro.
'Not really,' said Randall.
Randall loaded up his tranquiliser gun, took aim, and CLICK! The tranquiliser dart hit one of the yetis. He instantly fell asleep.
'Jolly good shot,' said Spyro.
'Yes, it was a rather good shot, wasn't it.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Nazza and Bob walked around the town, looking for ghosts.
'Well, we've got one,' said Bob. 'That's good so far.'
'Aargh!' shouted someone, who was running around frantically. 'There's a big green ghost in the book store!'
-A MINUTE OR SO LATER -
The door of the bookstore burst open, and the sun shone in, revealing Bob and Nazza. 'Who you gonna call?'
'DUSTBUSTERS! I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
The green ghost looked up from its snack of encyclopedias, and saw the blue wolf and monk. 'Me eat you up! Me eat you up!'
'I don't think so, ghosty!' said Nazza. Bob and Nazza sucked the green ghost up.
'Another easy trap,' said Bob.
'Yep.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall looked around. 'There are three more at the camp right now,' said Randall.
'I do have eyes, you know,' said Spyro.
'I'll take down the big one, then you flame the two smaller ones, okay?'
'Okay.'
Randall loaded the tranquiliser gun, took aim, and shot at one yeti which had its back to the two. It fell down, and Randall noticed the tree in front of it was wet.
'That's gross,' said Spyro. He ran out, and started wildly shooting flames at the two yetis. They were set on fire, and a few minutes later, they were charred and black.
'Roast yeti, anyone?'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "ghostbusters" walked through the town. 'Two down, eight more to go,' said Nazza.
'I should do this more often,' said Bob.
'Where else do you reckon the ghosts would be?'
'Let's check near the forest,' Bob suggested.
'Okay,' said Nazza.
They walked over near the forest, and found another green ghost terrifying a group of school cats.
'Hey, greenboy!' shouted Nazza. 'Take this!'
He shot a laser at the ghost, and it was sucked into the vacuum, and trapped in another of the tubes.
'Could this get any easier?' said Bob.
'Probably,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "Yeti exterminators" walked through the forest, looking for yetis. Suddenly, two yetis appeared and attacked them.
'How convenient,' said Randall. Spyro shot out a burst of flames and began running around in circles shouting 'WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP.'
By the time Spyro had finished his bout of temporary insanity, he noticed that the two yetis were burnt to a crisp.
Randall didn't look too good either. 'Sorry about that...'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The "ghostbusters" entered the forest. 'Now, to find ourselves another ghost,' said Bob.
'Who you gonna call? A PSYCHIC WHO KNOWS THE FUTURE! I mean, GHOSTBUSTERS!'
They continued walking through the forest, then found a yeti lying down near a wet tree, with a tranquiliser dart on the back of its knee.
'Strange,' said Bob.
'Look at this,' said Nazza. He was crouching over a charred, burnt dead corpse of a yeti.
'That's even stranger,' said Bob. 'And look, there's two corpses.'
'Oh no,' said Nazza. 'Could it be...'
'*GASP* Could it be...what?'
'Could it be...the blair yeti-killer?'
DUN DUN DUN
'Look!' said Bob. 'Even more strange!'
He pointed, and Nazza looked. One of the green ghosts was leaning against a tree, and a strange yellow liquid was pouring over the tree. From the ghost.
'My turn,' said Bob. 'Who you gonna call?'
'BLADDER CONTROL!'
Bob sucked up the ghost. Even when it was in the vacuum a strange yellow liquid seeped out.
'Eww!' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Mission Log: So far we've taken down six of the thirty yetis.'
'Uh, Randall?' said Spyro. 'How come you're talking into a small log?'
'Never mind,' said Randall, throwing the log away. 'See any more yetis?'
'Not yet,' said Spyro. 'Hey look, there's a tunnel in this forest.'
'I'll bet the rest of the yetis are down there.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
They walked around the forest, as night slowly crept upon them.
'I'm scared that the blair yeti-killer is going to kill me,' said Nazza.
'You're not a yeti, are you?'
'No.'
'Then you have nothing to worry about.'
Suddenly four ghosts appeared. 'Aargh!' shouted Nazza. 'It's the Blair Ghost!'
Suddenly the ghosts started talking at once. 'We are the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. And the ghost of this fat guy who died on Christmas Day.'
'Quick! Suck 'em!' shouted Bob.
Nazza and Bob quickly sucked up two of the ghosts. 'No!' shouted one of the two left. 'The ghosts of Christmas past and present are gone, but the future will remain!'
'Nope,' said Bob, who sucked up the ghost of Christmas future.
Nazza tried to suck up the ghost of the fat man, but he wouldn't seem to fit. 'He - doesn't - seem - to fit - and he's - struggling - to get - out -' Nazza managed to say, with the vacuum tube moving about wildly in his arms.
'This should help,' said Bob. He removed the tube from the vacuum pipe, then flipped to reverse, and helped push the ghost into the vacuum.
'That's better,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall were surrounded by eight yetis.
'Now would be a good time for you to use your firebreath,' said Randall.
'I can't!' said Spyro. 'I'm out of firebreath!'
'Great time for you to lose your firebreath, Spyro,' said Randall sarcastically.
'What do we do now?'
'Time for Samurai Randall to return!' said Randall. He drew a samurai sword out of nowhere. 'Hiya! Ya! Ya!'
Three yetis' heads were sliced clean off.
'Ya! Ya! Ya!'
Three yetis were devoid of legs.
'Ya! Ya! Ya - wait, there's only two left, not three.'
'You were about to slice me horizontally in half,' said Spyro. 'A good thing you realised before you did.'
'Yeah, hehe,' said Randall. He looked around at the bits of chopped up yeti. 'So, what do you think of my ninja skills?'
'You're a ninja? Well, it was alright I guess.'
'That's good. Now let's find the rest of the yetis.'
'No.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Nazza and Bob roamed the forest in the dark. 'How many more ghosts do we need to catch?' asked Nazza.
'Six,' said Bob.
'Look! There's six ghosts having a camp fire!'
'Hey ghosts!' shouted Bob. 'Over here!'
Nazza and Bob instantly sucked up two ghosts, then two more.
'Just two left,' said Bob. 'They're big ones too.'
It took them a whole two minutes to suck up the last two ghosts. 'I believe that's all fourteen,' said Bob. 'Let's go back to the professor.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro and Randall found another room, and a whopping twelve yetis.
'Samurai time,' said Randall.
'Can I have the tranquiliser gun?' asked Spyro.
'Yeah, sure, here you go.'
-A FEW MINUTES LATER-
'Well, that's all of the yetis,' said Randall.
'Yep,' said Spyro. 'Let's go back.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Ah, I see you and Nazza have collected all eight ghosts,' said the professor. 'Here's a key for your efforts.'
==============================2 Keys Found==============================
'Let's go back to the hidden building,' said Bob.
'Yeah,' said Nazza.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
'Here's a key for helping get rid of the yetis,' said Randall.
==============================3 Keys Found==============================
'I'm gonna go back to the hidden building,' said Spyro.
'Yeah,' said Randall. 'I'll go back to my cabin.'
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyro arrived back at the hidden building to find Nazza already there.
'You got the key?' asked Spyro.
'Yep,' said Nazza, holding up the key.
'Now we just need one for the gems,' said Spyro.
'I can help you there,' said one of the monks. 'See, we keep all the gems for safe-keeping. So we can just give you the key for nothing.'
==============================4 Keys Found==============================
'Now, let's go,' said Spyro.
'Yeah.'
'Nah.'
