That morning, Mickey met the ghosts at the Mansion. "I tell you," said Ezra, "Slim got away on that train!"

"I know, but we've searched all the stations!" explained Mickey. "Alameda Slim could be anywhere in this park, let alone Florida! But why would he steal a ghost cow? What goo would that do him?"

Ezra looked determined. "We have to find her!"

"I thought you didn't like her," pointed out Bambi's mother.

"I don't! But she's still part of our attraction, and we ghosts have to stick together!"

"Except for Madame Leota," said Phineas.

"Right, not her."

"Or Little Leota."

"Well, I guess."

"Or those Opera Ghosts, I just don't like them."

"OKAY!" Ezra shoved Phineas out the door. "Go throw things at the Republicans at the Hall of Presidents! Or the Democrats! Whichever side you're on! Throw stuff at all of them! Just go! I'm talking to the mouse!" Ezra turned back to Mickey. "Just leave it to me, mouse. I'll find Slim! I know where he is!"

"Well," said Mickey, "just to be safe, I hired a professional,"

Out walked a much smaller mouse, dressed as Sherlock Holmes. "Basil of Baker Street, reporting for duty."

"Oh, come on!" exclaimed Ezra. "Disney doesn't even acknowledge his movie!"

"That doesn't mean it was a bad film," reasoned Basil.

"Go jump in a Black Cauldron." Ezra went off to sulk.

"Yes, well. I could find Mr. Slim, but I would need to know why he would be after Miss Minnie Moo in the first place."

Ezra came rushing back like a bolt of lightning. "I know! I told you I could solve this case! See, Slim never liked us! He's...the one who lived. With no relation to Harry Potter, in the original drafts of 'Home on the Range,' back when it was 'Sweatin' Bullets,' Slim and the Willies were written as ghosts (which is why they were called the Willies in the first place). An early Slim even visited our mansion, and he was a real jerk, too. All high and mighty, but loving the afterlife...of course, he never really had a previous life to enjoy. He was crushed when he was rewritten as a normal guy who got beaten up by a bunch of cows. He wants revenge, and he probably likes the novelty of kidnaping a ghost cow."

"I see...where did you learn that?"

"Internet and audio commentaries!" Ezra proudly replied.

Basil gave a sort of sigh and began to search the mansion. "What's he doing now?" complained Ezra. "Look, mouse! You hired a nut! Me and the others are gonna get to the bottom of this case!"

The three ghosts walked though Toontown, trying to figure out where to look first for the cow. "See, if I know Slim," explained Ezra, "then he's going to hide in an obvious place! This park! And where is it more obvious to hide a cow? The Barnstormer!"

However, a search through the barnstormer resulted in nothing. But someone saw the ghosts looking around the place. A large looking man in a Mickey Mouse hat watched them from Pete's Garage. He turned to three skinny men, each one looking like the other. They also wore Mickey Mouse hats. The skinny guys gasped in horror at the fat man. "Who are you! What'd you do to Uncle Slim!"

The man took off his hat to reveal that he was Slim! The others were clearly the Willies. "It's me, you morons! And those ghosts from the Mansion are out there! Can I trust you to look after yourselves while I go and dispose of them?"

"Prob'ly not."

Slim handed them a mirror. "Amuse yourselves."

The Willies looked in the mirror and saw their disguised reflections. "Who are you! What'd you do with us!"

The dejected Hitchhiking Ghosts were walking away when they heard a yodeling noise coming from the Barnstormer! "SLIM!"

They quickly ran into the barn just in time to see Slim boarding a car that started up the tracks. "Stop the car!" ordered Ezra. The Hitchhiking ghosts jumped in after Slim. Suddenly, Alameda jumped out and started the ride up again, at a faster speed. The passengers screamed in horror, but the ghosts loved it. "YEE-HAW!"

The cars zoomed through Toontown, barreling into Minnie's House. "Well, it was all pink and stuff," said Gus. "I'm sure she'll update to a more modern place, and ditch the frills."

The next stop on the path of destruction was Mickey's house. "Ooh, he'll kill us for this one," said Phineas. "At least it wasn't an interactive place. Those cost more."

Then there was the Judge's tent. "Oh no!" cried Phineas. "We've destroyed the place where you can meet Pooh!"

"Yeah, there are twenty of those," said Ezra, "so relax...hey, we're passin' through the Princess room! Woop woop! Hey, Snow White, want a scary adventure? CALL ME!"

The ride crashed finally at Donald's boat (The Miss Daisy). Ezra stood dramatically at the ship's edge as it slowly sank. "Gentlemen, hitchhiking with you has been one of the greatest pleasures of my life."

It began to rain after that. The ghosts bought little ponchos from the park's vendors and calmly walked back to the mansion. "Here's the plan," said Ezra as they walked through Frontierland, "we deny everything. Besides, it was Slim's fault."

They reached the Haunted Mansion's front gate where Master Gracey was waiting for them. "Gentlemen, I'm afraid that Mickey wasn't very happy with your...little joyride."

"It was NOT a joyride!" Ezra shot back. "We saw Alameda Slim around there! He set this whole thing up!"

"Ah," said Basil, stepping out from behind Gracey's shoe, "but even Mr. Slum..."

"Slim."

"Whatever. Even he is not stupid enough to stick around here after his adventure. And due to previous reports of your...behavior, all signs point to you for that display."

Gus tried to crush the mouse with his ball and chain, but he simply stepped out of the way. Ezra was outraged. "We SAW him! And someone else must have as well!"

"Yes, there were reports of a...large tourist, but I'm sure you've seen that we have a wide variety of weights. That man you spied in the crowd..."

"HE WAS ON THE RIDE!"

"He could have been anyone."

Basil strolled away. Gracey looked back up at the ghosts. "Mickey was too busy attempting to rebuild Toontown to say this to you...but he wants you out...now."

Ezra dramatically turned away. "Fine. We'll leave. But when you wake up and realize that there's no one in the mirrors at the end of the ride, you'll regret it."

"Wait!" called Gracey as the trio sadly left, "It's not up to me!"

The ghosts sadly sat on a bus. Phineas broke the silence: "I knew they hated us. Ever since they had that movie where Ezra didn't even have a line, they've had it in for us."

"They know where to find us," said Ezra.

"Actually, no. You never told them where we were going."

"He has no idea where we're going," grumbled Gus.

"Yes I do!" argued Ezra. He looked out the window and saw a billboard for EPCOT. "We're going to EPCOT! There's a great big beautiful tomorrow!"

"That's Tomorrowland."

"Doesn't matter."

I'd just like to say that I'm sorry about not updating; I wasn't sure how to write some of the scenes such as the Toontown chase/destruction.
