Author's Note: Hey. Sorry about the lack of Host Club Shenanigans, I, Katie, had a lot happen very suddenly involving a lot of grown-up stuff, like picking college classes.
OMG JULY 17TH WAS DISNEYLAND'S 60TH BIRTHDAY, ENJOY SOME CAKE WITH HONEY! Yeah, the festivities are awesome and the tributes are emotional. It's been taking everything I have to not spend all my college money on a trip down there to join the celebrations. Maybe next year, right?
Anyway, this next part is slip into two parts, mostly because I've spent three hours writing ten minutes of a show. Expect a better half of this on Wednesday, I promise.
Another thing. I have a home video of this show, so the versions on YouTube may not be the same as this show. I m going to see if Steph can help me post our version of the show on YouTube on a Channel with all the Disneyland P. online (The ones we like to use, at least.)
Here is the Story!
Chapter 38
They were the first group in the room, despite the line outside who either knew what the show was or was curious about the show. Katie flashed her badge at the attendant guarding the rope and they all entered. The ground was covered in rugs and mats, so they sat down on them. They chose the middle and center of the area, which gave room for children in front of them. Katie ran backstage after saving a spot next to Kyoya while Steph looked around in awe.
"It's been forever since I have seen the place like this!" She sighed, leaning against Kaoru.
Hikaru placed his hand over Steph's as he said "Tell us something you remember from a long time ago."
Steph immediately doubled over laughing. Everyone now really wanted to know what this story was.
"Oh, this one is great. Okay, I was seven and Katie was ten, our little sister was three. We went to see this show and a man came out with his arms up. He was obviously part of the show and when we all kinda just went silent, he started crying. Full on bawling and wailing. His friend came out and said 'what are you doing?' and the man stopped and said 'crying.' The second man said, 'oh, okay, go ahead.' And the first started crying again. The second ran over and said 'No, no, no! Don't cry, I mean why?'"
Steph paused with a grin. "At the time, our mother was obsessed with a show called Survivor."
She asked if they all knew what it was. They responded yes, they had at least heard of it.
"Well, my mom was beside herself when she heard the first guy's response to why he was crying. He said, with a straight face, 'Rudy got kicked off of Survivor.' Our mom, who was filming the show, said to our dad 'I WAS TAPING THAT!'Wyy? Doirked.
Katies decided to trust her.
ovie very well, so there are happy moments as well as frightening ones. "
Everyone laughed and groaned. How funny, but also a horrible spoiler. Steph explained that they had the moment on tape and how awesome it was.
Katie chose then to come back with a huge grin on her face. "I'm so excited, I got the list of all the throwback shows going on today. And be prepared for some audience participation!"
She sat down with Kyoya as the rest of the people shuffled in the little theater. It was pretty full for a morning, but comfortable.
So, the show started. It began exactly how Steph remembered it, except with one small change. "Dumbledore died the sixth Harry Potter."
"NOOOOOOOOO" The host club screamed along with everyone else. The two men continued to talk about how Snape did it, how the horcrux was a fake, and Harry's breakup with Ginny Weasley.
"I know you are upset about that, but right now we have to take care of this amazing crowd right here." The man in purple said pointing to the audience.
The man in orange, who was crying, said. "I got over that death a long time ago, but I came out with my arms up, big showbiz, I was expecting everyone to scream and shout and thro small children in the air, but that was it, silence."
"Nothing happened?"
"Nothing happened!"
"Okay," The man in purple said. "Try it again, but since time, since they know, they know our need, they will go ABSOLUTLY crazy for you right now."
"I want them to make so much noise that everyone in the park right now gets jealous."
So the two men tried again. The man in orange turned to face the audience with his arms in the air and a wide grin on his face. Everyone cheered and applauded, Mori even threw Honey in the air.
"Salaam, my friends!" He said after the noise died down. "Welcome to Aladdin's Oasis in Disneyland for the…"
His voice stated echoing, as if he was shouting in a canyon. "STORYTALE ADVENTURE!" Everyone cheered again.
"Allow me to introduce myself to you wonderful people. MY NAME IS… BOB" His name had an echoing sound effect that made his name sound more sinister than the name Bob should have sounded.
Everyone laughed and cheered. "Thank you. Actually my full name is Barker Bob, you might be more familiar with my brother, Shish-ka." A drum riff finished the joke. A few chuckles could be heard, but nothing else.
The man in purple, who had been standing off to the side, began to laugh at the stony response. Bob looked to him, confused. The purple man laughed even harder and made an observation
"They're not laughing."
Bob looked offended. "Yes, well, thanks for that, I can tell they aren't laughing. I was trying to figure out how to get the egg off my face."
People giggled with the other man as he said. "They just don't know the Agribah tradition."
Bob addressed the crowd again. "We have a custom in Agrihbah that when someone tells a joke like that people sometimes laugh uproariously, because it just feels good. So I am now going to give you an opportunity to feel good, because I'm telling you the joke again. My name is Barker Bob, you might be more familiar with my brother, Shish-ka."
This time, everyone laughed. Bob grinned.
"Very good, we've gone over applause, we've gone over laughter, one more thing. Here in Agrihbah, to say hello or welcome we say 'Salaam', and the proper response is for you to shout it back, so let's try it out. Salaam!"
Everyone shouted back "SALAAM!"
"You have done very well, I am proud of you as a group, but we have to give you a pop quiz now to see exactly what you remember."
The host club looked fierce as they tried to remember everything that just happened.
Bob began the test. "Salaam!" Every said it back. He threw his hands up as if he was entering. Everyone cheered. "Shish-ka!" Everyone laughed. They passed the test!
"That was great!" Bob smiled. "One last piece of business is that, during the show we might be asking for volunteers. Now, who wants to volunteer for something?" A few kids raised their hands. The tins did, as well was Tamaki. Katie told everyone to raise their hands, just in case. So, the rest of the group did.
"Is this their version of an opening act?" Kyoya asked Katie quietly, sort of raising his hand, but not really.
"It's a warm up, to get the crowd ready to laugh." She whispered back.
"Right! Raise your hand up like this, let's practice. Raise one hand up like this!" He raised his hand up and the crowd followed. "Now raise the other up too! Now raise the roof!" Everyone laughed as the host club raised the roof and laughed.
"Ladies and Gentleman," Bob grinned "It is my greatest pleasure to introduce to you Agrighba's greatest storyteller and my good buddy, here he is… The great Kazoo! Its Kazoo!"
The man in purple, Kazoo, stepped forward and put his hands in the air. Everyone cheered for the storyteller.
"Salaam!" Kazoo said to the crowd. Everyone responded the same.
"And a good day to you all worthy friends, lets hear it for my pal, Barker Bob!" Everyone cheered as Bob made his exit.
"Well, like he just said, I am KaZOO! Master Storyteller!" Everyone cheered again. This man knew how to work a crowd. Kazoo grinned devilishly at the people. "And part time knick-knack salesman."
He laughed and ran over to an open trunk. He took some chimes near it and dangled them mysteriously. He talked in a mystifying way. "Welcome to Agribah, a city of mystery… Of enchantments…" He grabbed the chimes, stopping them. He paused.
'AND THE FINEST MERCHANDICE ON SALE TODAY! COME ON DOWN!" He laughed. The twins could see themselves as this funny merchant. Everyone watched him in awe.
"Oh boy, Oh boy! Lets see what we have on sale today, at Krazy Kazoo's, where we have smashing prices." He took another thing from the chest. "Oooh, look at this! I need a customer, I need a customer!"
Soon, everybody was rasing their hands. Kazoo walked around and chose… Tamaki! "How about you, young prince? Come here! Stand up and help me!"
Tamaki walked up, oblivious to all the young girl's gasps at his handsomeness. He was too focused on Kazoo. He was asked for his name.
"Tamaki…" He answered, hesitantly.
"Everyone say Salaam Tamaki!" So everyone did.
"Tamaki, do you know what this object is?" Tamaki only knew one answer.
"A lamp?" Katie laughed behind her hand. She had only ever seen someone guess a lamp. Everyone wanted to jump the gun.
"No, good guess, but it is actually a combination coffee maker and…" Kazoo flipped the lid off the top and talked in it, creating another echo sound effect. "Cell Phone! Hello?" He was talking in the phone.
"No, Tamaki is busy, she's watching the show and she doesn't talk on the phone during the show. Neither should you." He paused and looked concerned. "Hold on, can you hear me now?" He started walking farther and farther, repeating the question. He got to the end of the stage area and said "GOOD!"
He walked back to Tamaki. "Lets hear it for Tamaki!" Everyone laughed and cheered. Tamaki was flustered as he bowed to the audience. Kazoo handed Tamaki the item and told him to go back to his seat. Tamaki did, holding the precious item.
"Will you watch that for me during the show?" Tamaki nodded. "Yes? And after the show will you give it back." Tamaki nodded again. "Yes? And then during the show can I get your mommy's credit card number." Tamaki nodded again, used to nodding. Everyone laughed. Kyoya sighed and said "Well, I guess he means me again." Katie laughed. She leaned next to him, like Steph leaned against Kaoru earlier. Kyoya looked content with this.
Kazoo continued. "Good! Keep nodding your head, that's the kind of customer I like." He went back to the trunk and said "Well, I know you are only interested in the exceptionally rare. I have something special to show you and it looks like-" He held up the famous lamp and a gong sounded. "THIS!"
He motioned for everyone to go "oooh!" Then "ahhhh….eeeee….ooooo…iiiii…" Everyone laughed. Then he said "Sometimes Y." Everyone laughed at the alphabet joke.
He went back to the lamp. "Do not be fooled by its common appearance. Like so many things, its not on the outside but what is on the…?"
Everyone responded "INSIDE!" He nodded.
"What is on the inside that counts. This is no ordinary lamp, no no no! This lamp once changed the course of a young man's life. A young man, who, like this lamp, was more than what he seemed to be. Perhaps you would all like the tale, yes?"
Everyone said "Yes!" Kazoo, however, was not satisfied.
"I SAID PERHAPS YOU WOULD ALL LIKE TO HEAR THE TALE!" He was not disappointed when everyone yelled "YES!"
"Very well then!" He ran up to put the lamp back in the trunk. "It begins here!" He clapped his hands twice, and proclaimed. "One day in the marketplace, in a city known… As Agribah!" Music from the movie could be heard playing as Kazoo continued. "Once upon a time, there was a poor young lad by the name of…"
"Aladdin!" came the call of someone running onstage! It was…
"Lets hear it for Aladdin!" The handsome young street rat himself waved to the people. He took up his view then.
"I was on a walk above the crowded marketplace on a busy, busy day!" Kazoo acted like one of the merchants.
"Sugar and figs! Sugar and Brittney Spears' used marriage licenses!" Aladdin looked confused at that last part, but the audience laughed. But then Aladdin's face lit up.
"Suddenly I notice a lovely young woman entering the marketplace."
The young woman dressed in blue began to speak. "I took an apple from a vendor's cart to give it to a child nearby." She gave a red apple to Honey, who held it in awe once he saw the woman's face.
"Ah-Hem!" Kazoo interrupted her. "Excuse me, you down there!" The young woman lifted up her hood and placed it on her shoulders. Kazoo greeted her. "Salaam."
"Oh, Salaam Kazoo!" She responded with a pretty smile.
"ITS PRINCESS JASMINE!" Kazoo announced as she waved to the crowd. Everyone cheered for the beautiful princess. "Looking good, princess!" Kazoo complimented. "Now, you know what I'm doing? I'm playing many different roles today." He said with a nice smile and a hand behind his back. "And right now I am playing the role of…" Aladdin looked scared as Kazoo pulled out a nasty looking knife and said "THE ANGRY VENDOR!"
He looked to the audience and said in a calm voice. "And the angry vendor says to princess Jasmine…" He looked at her and said harshly "YOU there! I demand payment for that apple!"
She looked frightened. "But I don't have any money!" Jasmine said, not understanding the situation.
"Well then I am going to cut off your hand for stealing!" Everyone gasped in horror! Jasmine was pleading and snatched her hand away from the knife. Aladdin jumped to address the people.
"I then jump down to save her!" He ran to Kazoo, who was shouting. "YOU KNOW THE PENALTY FOR STEALING, THEIF! THEIF!"
Aladdin tapped his shoulder and pointed far away. "Look! Camel fight!" Both the Princess and the vendor looked. Aladdin pulled Jasmine away.
"OOH! IT'S A CAMEL FIGHT! IN A HUMP, ANOTHER HUMP! TWO FOUR SIX EIGHT-" He then realized the princess was gone. "HEY!" Aladdin had pulled her away and they ended up in each other's arms. She awkwardly pulled away when he asked "Are you alright."
"I'm fine," She said, walking away.
"It's your first time in the marketplace, huh?" He asked cockily, elbowing her.
"Is it that obvious?" She asked, a little peeved. The host club was looking back and forth between the two, as if it was an interesting tennis match. The conversation was going by fast.
"A little," Aladdin chuckled. He then turned serious. "What are you doing here?"
Jasmine responded fiercely. "I'm running away and I'm not going back. My father trying to force me to get married and I will not stand to have my life lived for me!" She had chased Aladdin angrily around the stage as if it was his fault. At the end of her little rant, they were only a face apart. He was looking directly into her eyes.
He responded. "uh-huh." Kazoo snapped his fingers between them, pausing the scene.
"Aladdin was entranced by this beautiful young maiden." He shimmied behind them, causing everyone to laugh. Kazoo then put his face between theirs. "He had never seen anyone like her before."
He faced his head towards Jasmine so their noses were almost touching and made an odd noise that began like a high pitched wail and ended like the purring of a lion. Everyone laughed, but, miraculously, Aladdin and Jasmine stayed still. Kazoo turned to the audience and chuckled. "Neither had I!"
He snapped his fingers and the scene continued. Aladdin asked "What's your name?"
She responded "Jasmine!" He leaned back in awe at such a pretty name.
"Jasmine, wow… My name is-"
Kazoo interrupted him. "Wait! But before he could tell her his name, a palace guard arrived and arrested him!" Kazoo mimed locking him up and laughed.
Aladdin hid behind the chest as Jasmine continued. "Unknown to the both of us, Jafar," Kazoo gasped as she went on. "My father's advisor, ordered Aladdin's capture." She sat on the edge of the stage.
Kazoo picked it up. "That's right, you see, Jafar-" Jasmine gasped. "This guy Jafar-" another gasp. "Anyway, Jafar-" GASP. He looked at the interrupting princess. "Are you going to gasp every time you hear Jafar?" She gasped again. Everyone laughed, including Kazoo.
"Okay, wait a second, I don't want you to have to gasp in terror every time I say that name. I want the AUDIENCE to gasp in terror whenever we say JAFAR!" Everyone gasped in terror!
"Listen, I can't play all these rolls myself, I need some help. I need a volunteer from the audience! I need someone tall!" Everyone raised their hands. The host club looked towards Mori and Kyoya, who looked perfect to play Jafar. "I need someone mean! Nasty! You'll do, come up here!"
He help his hand out to Haruhi, who took it in an instant, ready to play Jafar. She went up on the stage with Kazoo and was asked for her name.
"Everyone say Salaam Haruhi!" Everyone did. Kazoo went on. "Haruhi, you are now officially JAFAR!" Gasps! "Alright Haruhi, I need you to strike a commanding pose and go grrrr!" So Haruhi roared loud and scarily. Everyone cheered for her. "Perfect! Come with me, Haruhi, over here and take a seat next to Princess Jasmine. Now for the grand finale with the cherry on top." A gong was heard as Aladdin handed Kazoo something and Kazoo mimed putting a cherry on Haruhi. "You are… Jafar!" Everyone gasped as Kazoo showed them a mask with the evil man's face. He handed Haruhi the mask and told her what to do quietly as Aladdin held up some bars and continued the story.
"Meanwhile, I was locked up in the palace dungeon where the evil Jafar was keeping me!" He pointed at Haruhi with the mask. Jasmine continued. "You see, Jafar (gasp) had a very special use for Aladdin!"
Kazoo took it over. "Late that night, Jafar (gasp!) that's you! (to Haruhi) let Aladdin, him, through the gates of the palace dungeon, that's me!" He gave a creak as Aladdin pushed him to escape and then said "Slam" as he was shut. Everyone laughed.
"Aladdin was taken to a cave!" Kazoo pointed to what looked like the cave of wonders. "Far off in the desert!" Aladdin went inside the cave.
Jasmine talked over the dramatic music playing. "Jafar (Le gasp) wanted Aladdin to go into that cave to bring back a lamp!"
"A lamp?" Kazoo asked.
"A lamp!" Aladdin said from inside the cave.
"But not just any lamp, a magic lamp!" Kazoo said to Jasmine.
"I… Found it!" Aladdin proclaimed as he exited with the lamp. Everyone clapped and cheered.
"What's so magic dull old lamp like this?" He asked Kazoo and Jasmine as the two leads sat on the edge of the stage. Kazoo stood behind them, explaining.
"Well, you see, Jafar (Gasp) wanted the magic lamp so that he could become…"
"Ruler of the whole world." The three said, mocking him. "So he sat and waited." Kazoo then ran over to Haruhi. "Hey Haruhi, having a good time? Its fun right? You can see everyone really good from up here. Yeah, great!" Aladdin and Jasmine were just talking by themselves quietly as Kazoo addressed Haruhi. They even played Rock-Paper Scissors. "Anyway, he sat and waited as Aladdin fetched…"
"The magic lamp!" The three said in unison. Aladdin tossed the lamp aside, but Kazoo caught in.
"Woah, careful Aladdin! This is no ordinary lamp, no no no! This lamp is a magic lamp. When you have a magic lamp you must be-"
"Careful!" Jasmine and Kazoo said.
"Right!" Aladdin said. "So carefully I took the old lamp and tried to read some ancient writing on its side. Well, it's a dusty old lamp." He blew the dust off and onto where Kazoo and Jasmine stood. Both sneezed. "Ah-CHOO!"
"Gesundheit!" Aladdin says.
"Thank you." Kazoo wheezes as he walked towards the trunk.
"So, I polish it in order to read the words." He said as he rubbed the lamp. Then, both he and Jasmine yelled "Woah! A BLUE GENIE APPERED POOF!"
There popped out Kazoo with confetti and a blue hat on that had a beard. Everyone laughed and applauded.
"WOW! Ten thousand years will give you a crick in the neck!" He said, sounding excited. He looked at Aladdin. Everyone was excited and happy.
