Mickey walked down the tunnel. He whistled nervously. What was at the end? As he neared the light the laughter grew louder. But it was not a girlish laugh. He walked a little further, the tunnel opened up to a bright room. A room full of Blotlings. He tried to turn back but again was blocked by a curtain of Thinner. "Uh oh. " he said. The blotlings took no notice of him. Mickey armed his paintbrush, as he slowly walked forward. The blotlings parted for him. He waraly made his way to the front of the room.
"Hello, Hero of Wasteland, Mickey-the-Mouse." Some booming voice said. Mickey passed through the final curtain of blotlings. He saw Petetronic sitting on a throne. "I thought you were good?" Mickey said.
"I only helped you once! That does not make me good ." Petetronic stood up. "Welcome, to my kingdom." He gestures around the room. "And you are my prisoner." Petetronic started to laugh. Mickey was surrounded by blotlings. Two Dropwings latched on to his arms, bringing him closer to Petronic. "This is going to be fun."
Minnie followed the little creature down the path. "Where are we going?" She asked. The creature did not answer. They arrived at a tunnel. "Are we going in there?" The creature gave a little nod. The tunnel was dark and dank. Minnie pulled out her wand. It softly glowed blue. The tunnel did not go on for long, soon they entered a room. There were creatures all over tha place. Buckets of Thinner were stacked against the walls. Minnie's creature led her to the other side of the room. A gremlin in purple fluttered around a machine. "I need more Thinner!" he yelled. A creature rushed to the Thinner pile. The gremlin turned around. "Prescott?" Minnie gasped.
"Ah! The fair mouse. What brings you here?" He suddenly got a worried look in his unnatural green eyes.
"This creature brought me here." She said pointing at the creature. Prescott looked down at the creature.
"That is a Blotling, to be specific it is a Spatter." Prescott looked at the Spatter again. This time the Spatter jumped up to him and whispered in Prescott's ear. He nodded. "Well, Minnie, where is your heroic Mickey?" Minnie suddenly got the chills. The green eyes looked familiar.
"He is on his way to see what you are up to." Minnie said bravely.
"Alright. Lets just hope he gets here before you find out what I am up to." Prescott snapped his fingers and two taller creature grabbed Minnie. She dropped her wand and the Spatter snatched it up. "And these, Minnie, are called Sweepers." Prescott said.
"Let me go!" she squeaked. The Sweepers pushed her to Prescott's machine. "No,no,no! Prescott please dont do this!" she started to sob. Prescott turned around, the green of his eyes suddenly wasn't so bright. He shook his head and went back to work. The tall creatures pushed Minnie into the chamber.
Oswald, Ortensia, and Gus ran down the tunnel. Oswald skidded to a halt. "Wait there is a fork ahead." Ortensia stood next to him.
"What way do you think they went?" Ortensia asked.
"Shh. Do you hear that?" Gus fluttered near the left tunnel. "Laughter? He might have gone this way." Gus pointed down the tunnel.
"But he could have gone this way, it looks like a way out." Oswald said gesturing to the right tunnel. Gus's green face went red as he marched over to Oswald. Oswald puffed out his chest and approached Gus. Gus opened his mouth to yell at Oswald. "Boys!" Ortensia yelled," why don't we split up. Oswald goes down the right and Gus goes down the left."
"What about you?" Oswald asked.
"I'll stay here and wait for one of you to get back." Ortensia sat on the floor. Fus headed off left and Oswald went right, leaving Ortensia at the intersection.
"What do you plan to do with me?" Mickey asked.
"I'm smarter than you think. I'm not gonna tell you. That caused the fall of the Mad Doctor and the Blot." Mickey shivered at the mention of the Blot. The Dropwings securing Mickey both belched thinner bubbles. A sweeper rushed to Petetronic's side. "She's ready? So soon. He is making good work." The sweeper nodded. Petetronic smiled like a maniac. "Bring her in."
"Who's making good work? Bring who in?" The mouse asked. The Dropwings holding him turned to the far wall. A purple gremlin fluttered in. "Prescott!" Mickey exclaimed. Two sweepers held a mouse between them.
"Your precious little Minnie Mouse." Petetronic cackled with laughter. The Mouse stirred when she heard her name. She looked up.
"Minnie!No!" Mickey yelled as he struggled against the Dropwing's grips. "Minnie! Please let her go! Fix her!" Micky pleaded. Minnie looked at the yelling mouse.
"Prescott let her loose." Petetronic orders. Prescott snapped his fingers and the sweepers let Minnie go. Minnie tan to the front of the room. Mickey looked down at his Minnie. His Minnie looked up at him with green eyes.
Ortensia sat waiting for Oswald or Gus. "Where are they?" She asked the tunnel.
Oswald ran down the tunnel. He couldn't get the images out of his head. How did they get so many? So many toons. So many toons with green eyes. Oswald ran pass the intersection where ortensia was waiting. "Ozzie!" Oswald skidded to a stop.
"Any sign of them?" Ortensia asked.
"No, but a whole pot of trouble that way." Oswald pointed.
"What kind of trouble?" Oswald only shook his head.
"We better find Gus. He might run into trouble." They went down the left tunnel.
"Minnie!" Mickey yelled again. The Dropwings were struggling to keep hold of him. "Fix her! Fix her!" Petetronic was laughing behind him. Minnie stood next to him.
"Look at the little mouse. Look how he struggles." Petetronic said to her. She nodded sternly, like a perfect soldier.
"I am going to thin you, Petetronic, and you brothers. Fix her!" Mickey threatened.
Petetronic laughed, " you can't do that without these." He held up the paintbrush and wand. "No one can fix her now."
Oswald and Ortensia ran to Gus. Gus was fluttering at the end of the tunnel. "Blotlings, the room is full of them." Gus said.
"Any sign of Mickey and Minnie." Ortensia asked.
"Mickey is being held by Dropwings and Minnie, well, something bad happened to her. Mickey has been yelling her name.
" Minnie! Come back to me!" They heard mickey yell from the room.
"We need to save them!" Ortensia exclaimed.
"There has to be a way in there without alerting all those blotlings." Oswald whispered. Gus nodded. His gears were already turning. Mickey yelled again.
"Hurry Gus. I don't think I can listen to Mickey's yelling anymore." Ortensia said. Oswald put his arm around her. He too was suffering because of Mickey's pain. Gus fluttered slowly around the room. A dusty inkwell sat in the corner.
"I got it! Mickey paint in the toon..." Gus slowly floated to the ground. He placed his head in his hands.
