Alright, this is almost turning into my last story... but no one will guess what I got planned... mwahahahahahahahaha! lol... k. But really, I always put someone in distress when they're around Basil... of course, last time it his daughter and wife, but still... sorry, I'm going to begin bragging about my last stories... lol... anyways, continue reading THIS story, and I will stop bragging about the other... of course, if you wanna go read that one... well... it's called Great mouse Detective 2 and those of you awaiting the continue of the other series, well... once I'm done with this story... I will get started on Great Mouse Detective 8 right away... I think I'm on 8... if not 7. lol. Anyways, now that I've done my update for that story.. (ha ha) back to this one... Will Jade make it?
"Jade!" Basil shouted, as he ran all over the toy shop. He was frantic this time. He had never really felt this way. "Jade!" the echos filled the whole toy store, from both mice looking frantically for the girl.
"Jade, please! Answer me!" came Basil's call, as he noticed frustrated tears forming up in his eyes. he quickly wiped them away. If they find Jade, at least he wouldn't let Dawson see him cry.
"Here." came a worn out voice. He stood up and began walking towards a path way. He found her in a clearing, lying in not really a pool, but a small puddle of blood.
"Doctor!" he called, and Watson came running in their direction. He leaned next to her.
He's never been this violent. both Jade and Basil observed.
"Oh no! This is all my fault. I should have known better." he said, and soon the tears were in his eyes again.
"It's not your fault." he heard her choke out.
"Basil, do you know why I'm able to figure out things before you?" she asked. He shook his head.
"It's not because I'm a better detective than you. I'm from a completely different dimension than you." she explained. "In another world, I'm a human girl. In that world, this is a movie and you're my favorite character. My mother recently got me a new VCR to watch movies on so I began to watch the movie..." she explained, and Dawson was hovering over Both of them. "That when things got weird..." she explained.
"The VCR began to pop, and soon I was on the streets of London. Not long after wards, I met Dawson and Olivia. Well, then the movie took off and I wanted to show how well I knew it. So, I..."
"You knew I was immediately, You knew who Ratigan was which you knew Olivia's whole story which means I should have listened you and saved myself disappointment over that experiment, you knew who Toby was, you knew that Fidget would try to scare Olivia, you knew... everything!" he said astonished.
"Well, I didn't know Fidget carried a knife. He was never that violent. Usually, Ratigan was the violent one but the worse he ever got was at the clock tower. Oh no, the pub!" she said, sitting up again, and hurting herself again. he grabbed her this time, holding her up.
"Oh, and I had no idea of when Olivia actually told you her story. You see, at that point in the movie, it goes to Ratigan's hide out, where of course he sings a song called,"
"World's greatest miracle wine." Basil said, obviously knowing that wasn't the title and smirking.
"Yeah, sure." she said smirking back. She then stood up, much to Basil's distaste. He was so worried she would hurt herself. But the coat wrapped around her waist seemed to be working, for now.
"No, it's called World's greatest criminal mind. And regrettably I know every word to it. I could freak Ratigan out for you if you would like." she said, smirking again, then cringing in pain.
"You're not going anywhere." he said, grabbing her waist to support her.
"You're not either. You still need to observe that paper that Dawson found." she said, and Basil looked at Dawson. Dawson pulled out the paper and read it aloud.
"Get the following: Tools, Gears, Girl, uniforms." said Dawson, handing the paper to Basil. Basil's eyes got wide.
"Yes! This is precisely what we need to get the girl back!" he shouted, grabbing Jade and going back to Toby.
They arrived back at Bakerstreet, but before depicting anything, Basil patched up Jade, but again.
"I'll be fine. I want to go. Come on, you gotta admit, I'd be a lot of help. It's like I'm some sort of gypsy or something." she argued her side.
"True, except your the real deal." he said, nodding his approval.
"So I can go."
"er, I guess so." he said, giving in.
"Thanks Basil!" she said, jumping into his arms in a hug.
"Sure." he said, hugging her back.
"Now then." he cleared his throat and walked back to where Dawson stood with the paper.
"Well, there's not much I can find other than that it is written with a broad pointed quill pen, which is spatted twice! That the paper is, of Mongolian manufacturing. And it has been gummed..."
"By a bat drinking rodents delight." Jade finished for him.
"Ah, yes... that cheap brand, well you know what I'm going to say." he said, nodding towards Jade. she laughed.
"What?" asked Dawson, feeling left out.
"Oh, it's the cheapest brand ever sold around the cheapest pubs ever." he said, walking off towards his chemistry set. He then lit the paper a fire and mixed the ashes in a bowl.
"But Basil." said Dawson, almost objecting.
"No Dawson. He has to burn it to figure out which pub we go to."
"Well, you've seen this movie. Which one do we go to." asked Dawson.
"Well, I don't know to be quite honest all I know is..." she tried to think back on the movie and realized something.
"Salt water." she said, just as Basil's experiment made a little boom sound.
"Aha!" he shouted.
"Yup." she said, smiling.
"Now, we merely find a run down pub at the only spot it could be! Where the sewer connects to the water front!" he said, looking for his maps and sticking a dart exactly where they needed to go.
"Elementary, Dawson." said Jade, just as he began to walk towards Basil to argue.
"Oh very well." said Dawson, looking at the young mouse.
"Time for disguises!" said Jade, getting excited.
"Yes, well... um, let's see what I have as far as a woman's disguise goes." he said, walking off towards the back of the house. He soon came back with a box.
"Okay, let's see. Ah yes, this is will do nicely." he pulled out a disguise and she recognized it from the movie. Dawson looked, but all these clothes were for skinny mice.
"This, Dawson. I remember it from the movie." she held up the striped shirt and jeans, along with the bandanna and eye patch.
"You've got to admit, Dawson. She has good taste!" said Basil, laughing. Then, Jade pulled out a green leaf, or at least it looked like it would be a leaf.
"Oh yes, do try it on!" said Basil, looking at what she had found.
"Um, k?" she said, taking the shirt and a pair of black pants she found along with it.
"Oh yes, It looks stunning." he said, once she came back out from changing into it. She felt odd. She had never really had her belly exposed before. The green shirt came over her back, but as it came around the front, moved upwards in a sloping direction, until of course, it got to the top of her stomach.
"Beautiful!" exclaimed Dawson, then looking down at his shirt.
"It's the biggest shirt in there." Jade said, matter o factually, realizing he was uncomfortable.
"I believe you, I just wish all the shirts weren't for the skinniest mice in London!" he said, half heartedly laughing.
Jade let a giggle out before her side started to ache. She of course didn't let Basil know, which she thought she did a good job hiding it.
Toby stopped on a dock.
"This is it. I remember it. It looks just as dreary as it did in the movie. In fact, just a little bit freakier." she said, a bit nervous. They scurried down the dock poles to the pub at the bottom. Dawson hid back a bit and Basil took out a cigarette.
"Come on, Dawson!" said Basil, after he lit it.
"I feel ridiculous!" said Dawson.
"Oh, come on! Don't BE ridiculous. You look like the rest of the scum down here." Jade said.
"Yes, you look perfect!" Basil gave his input. Dawson tried tucking the shirt in. He looked up at that remark.
"perfect? yeah, perfectly foolish!" he finally followed the rest, and Jade looked around nervously. She had fixed her long brown hair into a regular pony tail, her bangs hanging on the side of her face, accenting it , of course, she had the green top and black pants, but also Basil's arm around her.
"Remember, this is the only way these scum won't lay a hand on you. They see a tough guy like me-"
"Sure." she whispered playfully. He just smiled before continuing.
"Well, this way they think you're my girl and won't try to get ya." he finished.
"I understand. I'd rather have you than any scum here anyways." she said as they sat down at a table waiting for the waitress.
not much of a cliff hanger, but whatev... lol... If I would have kept writing it would have gotten really long. so keep reviewing and reading, and I'll get started on the other one... asap... ha ha... lol... bye!
