The hitchhiking ghosts entered the Magic Kingdom. "Here we are!" grinned Ezra, looking around Main Street. "Back again! Now tell us the plan!"
"We find Slim!" ordered Phineas, as that was all he could think of.
"Right!" agreed Ezra. "And I know where he's hiding! But we have to be inconspicuous, as Mickey doesn't want us back."
"Right," agreed Phineas. "There are some who call me...STEALTH in my maneuvers!" Pineas broke into an odd pose. His friends stared. "Right..."
Soon, the ghosts found themselves standing under Big Thunder Mountain.
Gus stared up. "Here? It's too obvious!"
"That's where Basil of Baker Street went wrong!" cried Ezra. "He forgot that Slim is just some cowboy! Of course he'll hide somewhere obvious."
"You're smart when you're sober," said Phineas.
Alameda Slim watched the from a rock above. "Curses! I've been found! Willies! Grab the cow and let's get outta here! Those ghosts'll never get Slim!"
The Hitchhiking Ghosts started to climb up the mountain.
"You know what would be better?" suggested Phineas. "If we were in Disneyland and climbing the Matterhorn."
Ezra thought about this. "Yeah, but why would a cow be there?"
"Maybe the Abominable Snowman was hungry," rationalized Gus.
Phineas kept climbing. "Let's just grab the cow and leave."
The Willies suddenly rode by on Minnie Moo. Ezra gasped. "They've already done that! Phineas, you're the inspired one! What do we do?"
"I don't know! My spark only went as far as to get me here!"
"Let's push it over," said Gus.
On this, Slim made his entrance. He jumped out and pushed little Gus all the way down the mountain. "I'll do it first!"
"Gus!" Gus toppled into the Rivers of America.
"Now what?" moaned Phineas.
Ezra made a quick plan. "You go after Alameda! I'll save the dwarf!"
"Dopey?"
"No."
"Don't get started on Gassy..."
"I'm talking about Gus!"
"Oh yeah."
Down below, Mickey was driving the Liberty Belle Riverboat, whistling the tune from "Steamboat Willie." He was about to hit Gus, who was innocently floating around in the water.
Ezra came diving down Big Thunder. "I'll save you, dwarf!"
Gus looked up. "Dopey?"
Ezra jumped into the boat and began to steer it himself. Captain Mickey was outraged. "You again? You're more annoying than the Phantom Blot!"
"I always loved that guy. Look out there! What do you see?"
Mickey saw a fat westerner riding away on a cow with three skinny men behind him. "It's...Slim!"
"Don't you feel guilty? If you'll excuse us, we've got a cow to save."
Gus climbed onboard. "Weirdest ride I ever hitched..." Ezra and Gus jumped off and swam through the river. Mickey tried to drive after them. "Wait a second., guys! I'll send someone else!"
Ignoring Mickey, they met Phineas ashore. "Where's Minnie Moo?" gasped Ezra.
"I lost them at the Briar Patch! What do we do?"
Ezra thought for a moment. "There's one place they could be heading! The front gate! Let's go"
Mickey arrived with Aladdin. "Don't worry! I found someone to help!"
Ezra was insulted. "Yeah, if we want someone to sing 'One Jump Ahead,' I'll call him. Mickey, I hate to reference a movie in front of its' hero but...do you trust me?"
"No."
Phineas marched up proudly. "Well, I'm the guy with one little spark and we're gonna save the day! So there!"
The ghosts quickly turned and took off through Fantasyland. Phineas was trying to think. "I'm at a loss for idea...where's the spark?"
Figment flew by. "Use the teacups!"
"That's more giving him the answer than a spark," Ezra pointed out, "but oh well!"
The ghosts jumped into a teacup from The Mad Tea Party and started spinning it harder than anyone had ever spun before.
"Faster! Faster!"
"This is so cool!"
"I'm going as fast as I can!"
They finally spun it so fast, that the teacup jumped off the platform and skidded down the path, leaving sparks. They passed a man proposing to his girlfriend. "Will you...marry me?"
Ezra groaned. "How clever...look around you, people!" There were at least three other people proposing in that area.
"Ouch," grinned Phineas.
The ghosts then passed a kid. "Hey, kid!" called Ezra. "Is it your birthday?"
"No..."
"Well, then...A very merry unbirthday to you!"
Just as they reached the gate, they spotted Slim riding away with the Willies past the bus stop.
"I was right, as always!" cried Ezra, attempting to steer. "After him!" The skidded down the road in hot pursuit.
"We can't even outrun a cow?" groaned Phineas. "This is really painful."
Panchito chased after them and jumped in. "Oh, what fun! A car chase!"
"Actually, a teacup and steer chase," said Gus.
"We're going nowhere fast with this one," said Ezra. "Panchito, have fun. We're finding a new mode of transportation."
The ghosts dismounted, leaving Panchito in the cup, spinning out of control into the distance. "But I cannot steer!" He disappeared down a road. A crash was head in the distance.
The ghosts realized they were still in EPCOT. "What's the fastest ride here?" cried Phineas.
"Mission Space!" said Ezra.
"That's a simulator, moron," grumbled Gus.
"Test Track!" called Figment.
"There he goes again," said Phineas, heading for the ride. The ghosts were soon cruising down the road in a car.
"How's this for style, guys?" smiled Ezra.
"We'd really be hot stuff if we had sunglasses," said Gus.
"Yeah..." they all sighed dreamily.
Slim rode by on Minnie Moo. "Fast ride, boys. In fact, you've already passed me!"
The ghosts stopped the car, sending them flying. Slim laughed and rode away. "Always buckle your seatbelts, kids!" yelled Ezra, before landing in the passing
Holiday tour bus.
"So..." Mickey said sarcastically, "how's the chase going?"
Gus grabbed the wheel and started steering. "Here we go!"
"Wait a second!" cried Mickey as the characters began to panic. "That cow's important, but you'll kill us all!"
"See?" reasoned Phineas. "Being born dead helps."
"Born?" said Ezra. "You mean imagineered."
The ghosts scanned the bus. Most of the characters were freaking out. "I think they're scared, Ezra."
Ezra sighed. "This is what we get for doing our jobs. I'll lighten the mood." Ezra grabbed the microphone from House of Mouse and jumped where everyone could see him. "Hey, everyone! Time for some Disney kareoke!"
The seaweed is always greener
In somebody else's lake
You dream about going up there
But that is a big mistake...
As Ezra sang, Lenny, the binoculars from Toy Story, hopped up and looked out the window. "Hey, guys...I hate to tell you this, but you're sorta driving the wrong way."
"Oh. TURN THIS THING AROUND!"
Gus made a sharp curve, resulting in half the characters flying out the open windows.
"See?" said Ezra. "Once again, they didn't fasten their seatbelts."
"This bus doesn't have seatbelts!" yelled Mickey.
"Well that ain't my fault!"
They finally caught up with Slim, and were riding next to him.
"Okay, Slim!" called Gus. "Hand over the cow!"
"Never! As long as I have my yodeling, she's sticking with me! I can yodel any Disney song!"
"Yodel 'He Lives In You'!" suggested Phineas. "I bet it sounds awesome!"
Ezra laughed. "Ha! But we have something you don't! A soundtrack pumped up to full volume!" YODEL-ADLE-EEDLE-IDEL-ODEL!
Minnie Moo stopped and started following the bus. Slim chased after them. "That ain't fair!"
"Too bad!" smiled Gus. "You ain't home on the range, cowboy!"
Ghosts: You're really up a creek!
They happily rode away, with the prize cow in tow.
Slim was stunned. "That's it? You're just gonna leave me here? Nothing else? Ha! What idiots!"
Panchito suddenly crashed into Slim, still in his teacup. "Oh my! You are even funnier than Donaldo himself! I must follow and torment you for amusement!"
"Dang it."
Master Gracey was sitting in the Foyer talking to some guests when he heard a car crash outside. "I will assume the Hitchhiking Ghosts have returned," he said calmly.
The master strolled outside to find a dazed Mickey in a crashed bus. Ezra and Phineas were congratulating each other, and Gus was pushing Minnie Moo over again. Master Gracey smiled, knowing everything was back to normal.
There's your story! Once again, I would like to thank everyone for reviewing. I just loving writing this stuff (low on plot, high on bad triva jokes)
