It was shortly after breakfast in the Water Tower as they were finishing up giant stacks of pancakes. After they cleaned, or ate in Wakko's case, their plates, they were getting ready to run around the Movie Lot. Just as they reached for the door handle, the phone started ringing.

"I'LL GET IT!" the Warner siblings said in unison before lunging at the phone, fighting tooth and nail to answer it in a tiny dust cloud. Ricky just stood back and watched, smiling the whole time at their antics. After a few moments, Yakko emerged from the pile with phone in hand.

"I'll get it." he said as he walked away from his siblings.

"I never get to get it." Wakko pouted.

"Maybe next time." Ricky said with a laugh.

"Hello?" Yakko said into the phone. "Uh huh...Uh huh...WHAT?! No way. We're not...I don't care about our contract! We...yeah...but..." he said before he sighed in defeat. "Fine. Goodbye." He then hung up the phone.

"Who was it?" Dot asked.

"The was Plotz." Yakko said.

"What'd he want?" Wakko asked.

"The usual. Our contract states that blah blah blah. Now we appear as guest stars on..." he said before he gagged a bit. "Baloney."

"Not Baloney!" Wakko said as Dot wailed in horror.

"Uhh...did I miss something?" Ricky asked in confusion. "Who's Baloney?" The Warners looked at him before they huddled together.

"Should we tell him?" Dot asked.

"Why? He doesn't have to appear." Wakko said. "Does he?"

"I don't know. I didn't ask." Yakko said before he looked at Ricky, then back to the huddle. "He wasn't mentioned, so maybe we can leave him here."

"At least he'll be spared." Dot said.

"Lucky." Wakko said before they all looked at him.

"So what's up?" Ricky asked.

"Well...we gotta appear on a TV show, despite the fact that we can't stand being around the star." Yakko said.

"Why? Is he a jerk like a lot of people we meet?" Ricky asked.

"Ehhhhhhhh not exactly."

"Then what's the problem?"

"Don't worry. You're staying here." Dot said.

"What? That's lame." Ricky said.

"Trust us. You don't wanna be us right now." Yakko said.

"Baloney's horrible." Wakko wailed. Ricky just pouted before the phone rang again. Ricky, who was next to it, answered before the Warners could fight over it.

"Hello? Hello Mr. Plotz...Uh huh...Me too?...Okay. Bye." he said before he hung up.

"What'd Plotz want now?" Wakko asked.

"He said that I have to go with you guys on the Baloney show. Something about making sure we're all in one place or something like that." The Warners just stared at Ricky before they hung their heads in despair.

"You poor, poor child." Yakko said.

"It can't be that bad." Ricky said.

(Line Break)

'I WAS WRONG!' Ricky mentally screamed as he and the Warners were watching a giant orange polyester dinosaur dance around the room. They had been their for less than two minutes before he wanted to run back to the tower and bolt it shut. They watched him sing the Imagine song, acted like a cab driver, and pretend he was in space. He didn't mind the last one as he watched him gasp earlier. Now he and the Warners were making mask for Baloney to guess who they were. Ricky thought for a moment of who he should draw before his eyes widened and he began to draw. A few moments later, they all held up there masks.

"Hmm. Gee, I don't know who you are." Baloney said.

"I'm Vladmir Horowitz." Yakko said.

"I'm Gertrude Stein." said Dot.

"I'm MemRicky." Ricky said. The Warners side glanced Ricky before Wakko spoke.

"And I'm Gustav Anvil, inventor of the Anvil." Wakko said.

"Oh those were good masks." Baloney said in joy.

"Hey, Wakko gave me an idea. Let's sing the 'Anvil Song'." Yakko said.

"The anvil song?" Ricky whispered. The Warners grinned at Ricky.

"Gee goshums Yakko. I don't know that one." Baloney said.

"Don't worry. You'll catch on real quick." Yakko said.

"And you'll love it too." Dot said to Ricky.

"The Anvil Song!" Yakko said before the Warners started singing. "An anvil's black and shiny, it's very heavy too. So watch out my chubby friend, or one will fall on you!"

"On me?" Baloney asked before an anvil fell on his head, smashing him into the floor. Ricky's hands flew to his mouth, but couldn't stop him from busting up laughing.

"That was hilarious!" Ricky said.

"That wasn't pretty." Dot said.

"But it had to be done." Yakko said. Suddenly, Baloney got up and started laughing again.

"Great song!" Baloney said. Soon the Warners and Ricky were hiding behind the bunker in army helmets.

"It's unstoppable!" said Wakko.

"Make it go away!" Ricky shouted.

"Call the national guard!" Yakko shouted.

"Or Tonya Harding's bodyguard!" shouted Dot.

"Let's sing it again! I lovey, dovey loved it!" Baloney said. All of them looked at each other with a grin.

"Okay." the four of them said before singing again. Ricky didn't know how he knew and didn't care. "It's made of solid iron, it weighs a ton or two. We know you like to meet it. It wants to meet you too." After they sang, another anvil fell on Baloney before he pulled it off his head.

"Yay! Let's do it again!" Baloney said as he walked towards them.

"Now it's getting scary." Yakko said before a cuckoo clock went off.

"Yum Yum, Doodle Dum, Cuckoo Cuckoo." it sang out.

"Oh darn. My friendly friend says it's time for us to go." Baloney said.

"Aw." the quartret said in unison.

'Thank God!' Ricky thought.

"I know, I know. But we still get to sing the goodbye song." Soon, all five joined hands.

"We love you."

"I love me."

"He's as dumb as dumb can be."

"But we found a way that we can get along."

"I stand still for the Anvil Song." Baloney finished as another anvil fell on his head.

"Can we go now?" Ricky begged.

"Yes." the Warners said in unison before they all bolted out the door. They ran for about two minutes before they stopped to catch their breath.

"I...hate...Baloney!" Ricky said betweens gasps of breath.

"Welcome to the club." Yakko said. "Hey Ricky. Who exactly did you draw?"

"Huh?" he asked.

"On that plate. Who's MemRicky?" Dot asked.

"OH!" Ricky said in understanding. "Well, remember when I fell in the water and passed out?"

"Yeah." Wakko said.

"How could we forget?" Dot asked.

"You scared us with that little stunt." said Yakko.

"Sorry." Ricky said. "Well, when I was out, I saw another me in my sleep. It looked like me, but different."

"Different?" said Wakko.

"It was me, but he wasn't a toon. He looked...strange." The Warners looked at each other, then back at Ricky. "He said that he was the Ricky that I can't remember. The Ricky I once was. It was confusing."

"The Ricky you used to be?" Dot asked. "Hey, maybe he knows who you are."

"Hey yeah." Yakko said.

"Sadly no." Ricky said. "He only knows as much as I remember, but he knows that we're not from this place."

"Oh." they all said as they hung their heads.

"Don't worry. I'm sure something will click." Ricky said. The Warners smiled before all four shot off. 'Still,' Ricky thought. 'It's been a while since I've seen my inner self. I wonder if I ever will get all my memories back.'


Sorry it's short. I'm trying to get back into the mood I had when I started this fanfic.
