On the Highway. It's getting late. We would've gotten to a near-by city sooner if Kalim wouldn't drink so much soda! We were speeding just to get to Canon City, Colorado. But the County Sheriff stopped us. That was Misfortune number 2.

"Sliva, the cops are chasing us!" Kalim said.

"WELL! IT WAS YOUR FAULT B'COZ YOU WASTED OUR MONEY AND WE DON'T HAVE AN ENOUGH FOR GAS AND THE NEXT GAS STATION IS MILES AWAY." I take a deep breath.

The siren went off on the car and I stopped the car. A officer came out and walked over to the car. We both smiled nervously at him. He wasn't smiling at all.

"You know what you just did!" he said.

"I don't!" Kalim exclaimed.

He looked at Kalim and pointed his finger at me. "Your long haired friend here drove over the speed way limet. That is a criminal offense. You have a choice. Jail or pay?"

"I always saw Madonna in prison in one of her movies and I always wanted to know what it was like," said Kalim.

Well Kalim's dream came true and that episode of Saved by the Bell became reality. I feel like Zach Morris and Kalim is Screech but maybe a lot worse.

We were stuck in prison was this guy who he called himself Hedgehog, a guy with spiky hair and Mrs Smith... (The old lady from before! Horo Horo's grandmother.) You don't wanna know why she was in. Same reason as us only vice versa (yes, she was going slow!)

"Let us out!" I shouted at the guards.

They ignored my insane rage.

"Hello Mrs Smith!" Kalim greeted.

"Oh! The young man who helped me on that fast rocking chair. Please to see you again? Want to see pictures of my grandchildren?"

Kalim and Mrs Smith started looking at HoroHoro and Plika's baby photos. Hedgehog came up to me in a very creepy way. Then yet he was all over creepy.

"I am Hedgehog. Want to be my friend?" he said very slowly and eyeing me up.

"No, I have more important things to do," I replied to him.

I started banging on the bars of the cells wanting out. I had no chance but to use my Mana!

I got all my animal spirits formed Mana and broke the cell walls down freeing us all. We all escaped. Though it was abit stupid b'coz Hedgehog is an outlaw and was in prison for shooting a hobo. But we never knew that until the next day.

"Kalim. Go and pay for the petrol," I said filling our no roof Bell-Air cheeve.

I passed Kalim some money and Kalim went in to pay for it. He saw some posters. Wanted posters. One of both me and Kalim, one for Hedgehog and Mrs Smith...

Kalim wore a mask and paid for the petrol and then rushed out with copies of the poster the Gas Station was giving away. I freaked when I saw the one of us.

"WHAT? WE ARE WANTED?" I freaked.

"So is Mrs Smith!"

I slapped him "I don't care for Mrs Smith! I care about us! We are meant to be going to the Arts Festival and have fun not go and get into trouble!"

"Isn't ironic, it's just like the movie Dumb & Dumber!"

I slapped him again "Shut up and get into the car. Let's get outta here!"

We drove down the Highway for 2 hours and we reached a town and decided to stop by the bar and have a drink. It was a tradional looking old Western bar. With a sexy looking girl singing a guy playing the piano and everyone is either drinking or playing cards. The doors did swing by the way before you ask.

"Water and a beer for my friend here," I said to the bar man.

"Coming right up!" he replied.

Kalim was very entertained by the show girl.

"Kalim... Kalim...," I said trying to get his attention.

He was hipmotised by her legs.

"Jolene, Jolene, Jolene... I'm begging you, Please don't take my man away, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene b'coz you can...," the girl sang.

"That Mary Lulu MaGu. She is talented," the bar man said serving the drinks.

Kalim never said a word. He took his beer and drunk it while watching Mary Lulu MaGu sing her heart out to the guys that weren't interested in gambling.

"She is pretty too," I pointed out.

"Yeah, she is. Shame, she is trapped in a loveless relationship with a man who doesn't understand her needs like I do."

The Bar man put his head down and cleaned the glass.

"If we help you get her to break up with her lover, will you let us have these drinks on the house? We are on a budget since Lover Boy here spent half of our money on strippers," I said using my thumb to point at Kalim.

Kalim was still silent which was very scary if you know him very well.

The Barman's eyes widen with hope. Mary Lulu came off stage to get a break and I rushed over to her and started to talk to her. All part of my plan.

"Hello! I am Sliva. I can't help but notice that you were staring at me," I joked.

She laughed "Oh I wasn't staring at you! I was staring at Roger. The bar-tender over there. He is such a sweet loving guy unlike my boyfriend."

"You are in love with him!" I said pretending not to know.

"Yeah, Roger is the only guy who thinks twice about me. I wish he was single," Mary Lulu blabbed.

I smiled "Well, it is your lucky day. Come with me."

I grabbed her arm and her boyfriend noticed what I was doing and he was really mad. We were half way walking over to Roger and Kalim when he came and started to pick a fight with me. Misfortune number 3.

"What ya doin' with my lady?" he asked mad.

Mary Lulu defended me and stood up to him. She looked more mad than he did.

"This man is a gentleman. Unlike you. All you do is force me to perform and keep all the money I earn for yourself. Roger, on the other hand is a sweet guy and Sliva is setting me up with him."

The boyfriend was over the moon mad. He decided to punch me but I used my Mana and Turtle protected me from that. I smirked at him. He punched me again. Still protected myself. He was confused and yet more angry. Mary Lulu slapped him.

"Keep the money! We are so over, Richie!" she shouted.

The whole bar went silent. Mary Lulu ran over to Roger and hugged him. Kalim was crying b'coz it was such a happy ending and Mrs Smith was in the bar and won $1000. .

"Hehe... I WON! Haha!" she chackled.

Then everyone started to fight. Kalim, Roger, Mary Lulu and I sneaked out.

"Thanks for everything, Sliva," said Mary Lulu.

"Oh you are welcome!" I replied.

"Well, you both get your free drinks then."

Kalim was still crying "This is such a happy ending!"

"We haven't got an ending until we get to the Arts Festival!" I said.

Mary Lulu smiled "Wow! The arts festival! I always wanted to go there. It's amazing there. You will love it."

Back on the Highway. Speeding at the right speed since I got some petrol. We were again on our way to the Arts Festival. Nothing was gonna disturb us. Or so I thought...

"Sliva," Kalim said to me.

"What?" I replied.

"That psycho guy Hedgehog has got a rope attached to our car and he is on Rollerblades and he looks like he is gonna do something."

I looked behind me and saw him. I went pale. Hedghog was smirking like he had an evil plan.

"Remember me! FRIEND!" he said.
