Hi everyone. Sorry I didn't update. Writers block. Hope this chapter is good. Again, sorry for the long wait.
It'd been a week since the last session with Scratchy, and Ricky felt great. He was keeping up with the Warners, spreading chaos and having a ball. He was even getting better at using toon abilities. He could spin change with only minor waldrobe mishaps, and could even turn while using toon speed. He still smacked into walls from time to time, but none the less, was getting better. He and the Warners spent the week running amok, dodging nets, and making special friends. Life was good for the quartret, who were currently watching black and white classics on T.V. in the tower.
"So who's the guy who keeps blowing a horn and don't talk?" Ricky asked.
"Harpo." said Yakko. It was 10 A.M when everyone was getting hungry. "Who else is hungry?" Everyone raised their hands as Ricky then stood up.
"I'll order some pizza." Ricky said as he went for the phone. "What you guys want on your pie?" he asked, soon regretting asking as all three sibs began arguing over what topping to get. They eventually decided on the classic.
"Pepperoni!" the Warners said.
"Alright. Now, what was that number again?" Ricky thought for a moment before dialing the phone and waiting for someone to pick up. After two rings, someone answered.
"Hello next caller. You're on the air." said a man's voice on the other line.
"Yeah, I'd like a large pizza with extra pepperoni."
"What are you, an idiot?" said the man, causing Ricky to flinch and get a little annoyed.
"You don't serve pizza this early in the day?"
"You dope. This is the Howie Turn radio show. Stop mashing buttons on the phone. BURP!" the man replied before hanging up, now getting on Ricky's nerves.
"What a jerk."
"Who's a jerk?" Yakko asked, walking over to Ricky. "How long does it take to order a pizza?"
"I got the wrong number." Ricky replied as he hung up the phone and pulled a radio out of hammerspace and began to tune to different stations.
"What are you two doing?" Dot asked as she and Wakko joined the other two.
"Yeah, I'm hungry." Wakko said, holding his stomach and acting like he hadn't eaten in days.
"When are you NOT hungry?" Yakko asked as Ricky found the station he was looking for.
"Next caller. You're on the air." said Howie on the radio.
"That's the jerk I was talking about." Ricky said, turning up the volume a bit. "I dialed his radio show by mistake."
"Howie?" said a woman on the radio. "I listen to you and Robin every morning. You're like, my best friends."
"Oh, that's so sweet. Thank you." said another female.
"Hey lady, here's some advice. If we're your best friends, then get a life!" Howie said, leaving the woman to laugh.
"How do they let a guy like that on the radio?" Ricky said, feeling his anger rise for some reason.
"Beats me." Yakko said. He then got a smug smile on his face as he took the phone. "Let me talk to him." he said as he dialed the number and let it ring.
"Alright, next loser. I mean caller. You're on the air." said Howie.
"Hello?" said the next caller, who was Yakko.
"Yeah, you're on the air. What do ya want already?" Howie said.
"Ehhhhhh we don't think you should be so nasty to your callers."
"Oooh, ya don't, don'tcha?"
"Uh uh. Maybe you should try to be a little nicer."
"Ooh. Be a little nicer?" Howie asked sarcastically. "Now wait wait. Let me get this straight now. You're telling me, Howie Turn, what to do? Well why don't you come here and say that, YOU LOSER?! HA!"
"We're here." said Yakko, now face to face with Howie in the studio with his siblings.
"AHHHH!" screamed Howie, now seeing the Warners in the booth. "Who are you?"
"We're the Warner brothers." Yakko and Wakko said in unison.
"And the Warner sister." said Dot. Suddenly, through the door came a very miffed Ricky. "And that's our friend Ricky. And you must be Howie Turn."
"That's me. You're looking at him."
"Nice wig ya got there." Yakko said.
"Does Cher know you're borrowing it?" Wakko asked while Ricky joined the group. The robin woman began to snicker at their joke.
"What are you snickering at?" Howie asked annoyed.
"It made me laugh."
"She obviously has good taste." Yakko said, leaving Howie more annoyed. He then stood up and towered over the group.
"Would you mind telling me what you are doing in my studio?"
"You told us to come here." Wakko replied.
"They goy you there Howie." Robin said.
"Hey Robin, whose side are you on?" Howie asked.
"Ours I hope." Yakko said as he and Wakko began to kiss Robin's hands.
"Alright enough. I want you kids out of here now. You're messing up my show!" Howie yelled.
"Hey, you're show was messed up way before we got here." Yakko said.
"Oooh. Very funny. Who writes your material?" Howie asked sarcastically.
"They do." Yakko replied, pointing his thumb at Wakko, Dot, and Ricky, who were tryping away on typewriters.
"Look, why don't you just go bother Rush Limbaugh?" Howie asked. Dot then typed up a reply and handed it to Yakko.
"We're, ehhhhh afraid he might eat us." Yakko read, causing Robin to laugh a little.
"Stop laughing at them!" Howie said.
"Okay, I'm sorry." Robin replied.
"Oh, I like her." Yakko said as Dot, Ricky, and Wakko.
"Are you challenging me?" Howie asked. Yakko just nodded once and said "No." leaving Howie even more angry before he sat back down. "Alright ya little page smear. Stick around. I'll show ya why my show is number one. Alright, listen up America. If you've just tuned in, I've got four kids in here that think they're funnier than the great Howie Turn. You know what I say to that?" He then answered with a small burp.
"That's not a burp." Wakko said.
"Oh no?" Howie asked.
"Nope." Wakko said. He then let out a loud burp that blew Howie back into a wall, leaving him there with stars circling his head as Wakko walked over and said "THAT'S a burp." Robin couldn't help but laugh at the scene.
"What kind of fool do you take me for?" Howie asked, now looking very angry. The Warners and Ricky started waving there hands to answer the question. Howie then lowered a mic and asked "Oh yeah, these kids think that they're reallly cute?" The boys nodded as Dot motioned for Howie to come closer.
"I can't help it if I'm cute." Dot said before kissing Howie, then spitting a few times. "He's got Gingivitis." she said to the boys.
"I am Howie Turn. I'm a big star. I'm a household name!" Howie ranted.
"So's the Mr. TidyBowl man. Are you related?" Yakko asked.
"Well, that's pretty funny coming from a kid who looks like a demented monkey." Howie said. Yakko looked back at his sibs and Ricky with an annoyed looked.
'This won't end well.' thought Ricky as Wakko and Dot went "Ohhhhhh." before Yakko turned back to Howie with a smile.
"You know you could talk your head off all day and never miss it."
"Oh yeah? Well is that your face, or did you block a kick?"
"Too bad the closet you'll ever come to a brainstorm is a light drizzle."
"There's a train leaving in a few minutes. Why don't you be under it?"
"You know, you'd make a fortune renting your head out as a balloon."
"O-oh yeah? Well, I-I guess you're one of those mighty brains. Mighty empty."
"Last time I saw a mouth that big, it had a fish hook in it." Howie just stood there with his finger in his mouth, looking around.
"You're a little shorty...eh, shorty!"
"Oh yeah? You couldn't even count to 20 without taking off your shoes." Yakko quipped.
"You're a little...big earred...KID!"
"You've got a great face for radio."
"You're a- you're a-a nooney head."
"I know you are, but what am I?"
"You're a...A..." Howie said, looking like he was about to lose it.
"WATCH OUT!" Wakko shouted. "DUCK AND COVER! DUCK AND COVER!" The Warners, Ricky, and Robin, all got behind cover as Howie screamed before blowing up. After the smoke cleared, the five then looked over cover at a babbling, bald, and featherless Howie Turn.
"Well everyone," Yakko said "He's finally starting to make sense. Our job here is done." He then hopped onto the table. "But let this be a lesson to all. For where ever there is belching."
"We'll be there." said his sibs and Ricky.
"Where ever there is stupidity."
"We'll be there."
"Where ever there is candy!"
"We'll be there a lot quicker!" Wakko said. Ricky just laughed as they left the studio.
"So Ricky, how you feeling? Anything?" Dot asked.
"I had fun. My lost memories...nothing. But now I want candy." Ricky said.
"There's some at the Tower. Let's go." Yakko said, before all four zoomed to the tower.
