The ham-hams looked at the giant pumpkin. Holding craving knifes and such, while Maxwell looked at a Jack-O-Lanturn page in his book.
"First, we cut a circle around the the stem." Maxwell said.
They all went to the stem, and started to cut the circle, after that, Maxwell told them to pull the the circle out, by grabbing the stem. And as they did, they found an orange mess inside.
"Eeeew." complained the girls.
"Looks like pumpkin seeds!" Oxnard said, while his mouth drooling. He dived in, but started to drown in the orange goop.
"H-Help, me ham-hams! I can't swim!" Oxnard cried.
"Hold on Oxy!" Hamtaro called out, throwing a rope. Oxnard grabbed on and the ham-hams started to pull him out.
Everyone calmed down, while Oxnard held a pumpkin seed he grabbed, he nibbled it and spit it out.
"Yuck! It tastes terrible!" Oxnard complained.
"It's because of the orange goop. We'll roast the seeds later. But, for now, we must empty all of the seeds and slime from the pumpkin." replied Maxwell.
The ham-hams grabbed some shovels and went hard at work. They also scraped the seeds and slime from the sides of the pumpkin. They climbed a ladder to get out.
"Oh dear... I'm pooped out!" Cappy said, gasping for air, while sitting on the floor.
"Ham-hams, we still have to crave the face out, Sparkle could come back at any min." Hamtaro replied.
"What should we crave?" Bijou asked.
"Something fast and easy." Maxwell said, eyeing on the clock.
"How about two small eyes and a zig-zag mouth?" Hamtaro asked.
"We should be able to do it before time's out." Maxwell replied.
The ham-hams looked at the blue-prints and went right to work. They started with the mouth, they pushed the peice out, and took it out of the pumpkin. It now looked more like a mouth. Finally the eyes. And they were all done. And just in time, when Sparkle went inside.
"Wow! What a hue pumpkin!" Sparkle said. "It's so huge, that I'll pick it up tomarrow, bye ham-hams!"
As Sparkle left, the ham-hams feel to the ground, sound asleep, with no regrets.
