Chapter 1:

A friend from San Francisco

Laura was gone to take a lunch, so Hamtaro was alone. Nothing could hold him: He would... No, he MUST gone back to the club house. He would hear, if somebody had more informations.

As he arried at the club house, he must noticed, that the club house was completly blank. Only Ratzi (Note: The german-dubbed-version is from 2002, so this is not a parody on Pope Benedict XVI.) was sleeping on his place. With a hanging head, he was able to go, as Ratzi lifted his head and said: "...search operation... for Boss". "Boss is missed?" Hamtaro asked. "Yes, he aruably missed". A familiar voice climbed from Hamtaros back to his ears. He turned around and saw, that Schlaxo was standing against him. Schlaxo, the maybe artfulst Ham-Ham, who knows a lot more, than the other Ham-Ham's, has – like nearly everytime – his big encyclopedia under his arm. " After you're went home, he doesn't came home until we all must gone. So we have decided to start a search operation today in the afternoon. That was before I heard, what's happend to Bijou's family. I think, Laura has told you the story, isn't it? "Yes, she told me the story", Hamtaro answered depressed. "I can't belive it". "Ya, me too." Schlaxo answered.

Another awful thought came to Hamtaro: "What's happend to her?" Hamtaro asked.

And Schlaxo answered: "I dunno. I've only heard about that, then I must go, to the Club-House, because we've chosen to built search partys to search after Boss. The others should arrive here in a few minutes". After the arriving from the other Ham-Ham's, they've consulted, where they have to search. Hamtaro said, that he prefered to search in the near from Bijou's Home. "Maybe he has heard about that, was Bijou's Family happend and would have benn a look at her." Hamtaro said. He has seen, that Boss had some mor feelings for her. As Bijou almost had gone to France, Hamtaro has seen, that he was more problems to come clear with this situation as the other Ham-Ham's.

As they've built the search party's the Ham-Ham's searched Boss all over the town. The Ham-Ham's were divided into two Search party's:

Hamtaro assembled the following Ham-Ham's to his group

Tiko, the Casanova from the Ham-Ham-Gang,

Tikali, Tikos very friendly Sister-Twin

Muuknus, every hungry, every shy, every faithfully

Noki, he wears every glasses, is very elegant and intellectual.

Schlaxo's Team had these members:

Pashmina, she likes his rosa scarf, and her little "sister" Didu.

Panda, as the name says, he has a pand-like fur. He's cerative, he likes to bulid some things and wisches to be a carpenter.

Juppidu, can clean up a room very fast, is a really good financial expert

Last but not least Keppi, who wears every a cappy. He must help to find his "Hero".

Didu couldn't help, cause her Owner, Kylie, has chosen, to bring her into the pet clinic for a little check-up.

Schlaxo had chosen, to search at their playground, the place, who Boss a little kitten had adopted and the places, who Boss usually used to fish.

Hamtaro indeed, was fixed to search after Boss at the villa from Maria's family. As they arrived at the scene, the police was still there. All were shocked: Even Tiko had Tears in his eyes. "Is THAT true?" he said sadly. Hamtaro, who wiped his tears away, took a breath and only nodded. All were standing silently for a few seconds, before Hamtaro said, I must see, what's really happend!" and runned into the house. The others have tried to call him back, but he wouldn't hear their voices. So they were following him.

In the house, they were suprised to see, that only the living room was burned down. "It's a Fact, Bijou is still alive", Noki said. "What is a fact?" Hamtaro said. "That the living room is the only room who burned down, that is a fact!". Hamtaro was angry. He used to go to upstairs, to Maria's/Bijou's room. "Calm down, Hamtaro!" Tkali said. "Remember, Maria could had taken Bijou in their hotel suite, or what the heck for a accomodation". "No she couldn't! Bijou is ham-napped!" a famillary, sad voice said. Boss was standing at the stairs. "The officers talked about that: 'This is a strange thing: A stolen hamster, a burned down living room...'" Boss replied the officers. "Why should a mugger steal a normal but rich Hamster girl?" Hamtaro asked. "Maybe the mugger need money. It's a strange way to get money, but..." Noki stopped as he has seen, that Boss started to cry. The Ham-Ham's decided to bring Boss back to the Clubhouse. "Tiko", Hamtaro said, "Go and inform Schlaxo,that we've found Boss and we bring him back to the Clubhouse". "Why I must do that!". Noki said: "Cause you are the fastest, you are brave and..." "I can adulate myself! Okay, I'll do that!", grumbled Tiko.

At the Clubhouse:

All were sitting at the table. Except Boss. Since houres he only starred at the ground, while he was sitting in his room. The other Ham-Ham's were helpless and they're thought about a solution, who help all from the Ham-Ham's, even Boss. They discussed about that. "Maybe, the police will find her and the Ham-napper too." Noki said. "You must be joking!", Schlaxo said, "the police has more important cases to solve. A little Hamster girl..." ,Schlaxo took a deep breath; "...isn't really important for the police. No,no. But... Maybe I have an Idea: My sister who lives in San Francisco, works for a men, who worked for the SFHPD (the San Francisco Hamster Police Depardment).Since a few years he works as an advisor. She says he is... a little bit odd, but his cases-solved-record is nearly 100." "Sounds good, but why is he odd? And how we can meet him?" Hamtaro asked. "First: I don't know. Sharon-Ham, that's my sister, said he can't write the personallity from her chef just in ONE letter. And that's how we meet him: We write us with a special "post-gull". I'll shortly write them an invite to come to us."

Two days later came a reply:

Tomorrow we will come!

But, my boss, you know...

He 's a little bit afraid of flying

Just a little "warning", that he will be looking a litte bit odd.

With lovely greetings:

Sharon-Ham

Just a day later: The rest from the Ham-Ham's (Boss was still apathic) have arranged a welcome troup. It was an strange picture: Two hamsters were flying on a gull into a makeshift airstrip. But these wasn't the only strange thing at these hamsters: The hamster, who was sitting next to the head of the gull, was a pretty blonde hamsterette, with a scarf like Pashminas, adhered in the coat of the bird. The hamster behind her was clamping into the fur of his partner. This hamster was the strangest, what the Ham-ham's have seen ever:

He don't leave barefeet, Cause he was afraid of leaving into needles, pins and sharp objects. Furthermore he weared a brown-checkered suit and – this was the most strangest – he weared an eye mask.

In A few days I'll create a new chapter!
