Wakko Runs Away
Chapter 4
Yakko and Dot had now left the water tower behind in their pursuit of finding Wakko. However, Dot is still unforgivable toward Wakko and wants to stay back.
"I don't know why we're wasting our time looking for Wakko!," Dot said angrily.
"Come on, Dot," Yakko snapped. "Why can't you be follow along without being angry at Wakko?"
"I'd rather go back to the water tower," she replied.
"No!," Yakko said frustrated. "You are coming with me to find Wakko and that's final!"
"Fine!" Dot retorted.
Meanwhile, Wakko stopped to take a nap under a tree. After waking up, he reached into his gag bag for something and found himself holding a picture of him with Yakko and Dot. He put it back immediately.
"If I never see those two again, it'll be too soon," Wakko said to himself.
Wakko wasn't thinking clearly, which was the case for him much of the time, so he wasn't feeling any regret for walking out on his brother and sister. To him, they were still just bullies that he was finished with forever.
On the other hand, Yakko and Dot were having a bit of a scrum themselves. Yakko was committed to bringing Wakko back, while Dot was having mixed feelings.
"You know, Yakko," Dot retorted, "This is useless. We'll never find him."
"Oh, ye of little faith," Yakko replied. "We'll find him. We always do."
Later, with the sun setting on beautiful southern California, Wakko became hungry again. He saw a burger joint in the distance and walked toward it.
"Hopefully, I've got enough money," he said. Wakko reached into his gag bag and found $10. He was hoping it would be enough.
Wakko walked inside the restaurant and found a place to sit. Soon after, a waitress who resembled the nurse walked up to his table.
"What can I get you to drink?", she asked Wakko.
"HELLOOOOOOOOO Nurse!", Wakko responded.
"Oh brother," the waitress thought. "Why do I always get the weird ones?" She then asked Wakko what he wanted to drink.
"I'll have an abyss boy soda," said Wakko. The waitress then walked away.
While Wakko was stuffing himself with dinner, Yakko and Dot found themselves getting hungry too.
"I wonder where there's a restaurant around here," said Yakko.
"Yeah, I'm getting hungry too, " Dot replied.
Soon after, they found a nice diner along the way, and they went there to have dinner.
After dinner, Yakko and Dot continued their journey to find Wakko, but it was already getting dark enough that they had to stop for the night. They stopped in the middle of the woods and set up their campsite.
"I guess we'll have set up our camping tent here," said Yakko. "I don't think we're going any further tonight."
Once the tent was set up, Yakko and Dot went to bed. "Good night, Dot," said Yakko. "Good night, Yakko," replied Dot.
Several miles away, Wakko was also calling it a night. Wakko also pulled a camping tent out of his gag bag and set it up.
"This is hard to do by myself," Wakko said, exhausted. After several unsuccessful attempts to set up his campsite, he gave up completely.
"Forget this," Wakko said in frustration. "I've always wanted to sleep under the stars anyway."
Wakko then pulled a sleeping bag and a pillow from his gag bag and set them on the ground.
"Well, time for me to say good night," said Wakko as he settled into his sleeping bag. "Hopefully tomorrow is a better day."
After that, Wakko quickly went out like a light.
