Chapter 82: Eggbert Toys:
Tommy's POV:
Dil and I heard our Daddy complaining. "Did Spiffy eat the last sausage again," I asked.
"Yes, but that's not why I'm mad," says Daddy, "it's my archrivals, Eggbert Toys! They got the new Tina Trousers! My Patty Pants is never going to make sales!"
"Daddy seems sad," says Dil.
"That's why we're going to take Egghead Toys down," I said.
Glowface's POV:
"Sir, why did we buy Eggbert Toys," asks Lorenzo.
"I need a good business to act as a cover for my S.N.A.F.U. operations," I said.
"Oh, that is a good reason," says Lorenzo.
"Don't act so surprised," I said, "now for my plan to destroy the X's! I'm going to fire a missile at their house!" Lorenzo looks at me. "I know, it's a little too simple. Give me a break, twice, I got myself humiliated by Supergenius toddlers!"
"Sir, first of all, your last plan failed because the wrong children saw me in my moose costume," says Lorenzo, "and second... THEY'RE JUST KIDS!"
"That's what they want you to think," I said.
Stu's POV:
I was trying to perfect Patty Pants.
"She hasn't even gotten the diaper rash," I said.
"Tragic," says Miss Hilton, sarcastically.
Tommy's POV:
Dil and I used the Reptar Wagon to get to Egghead Toys. It was pretty impressive we found it, considering we can't read.
"We're going in," I said.
. . .
We snuck in and saw all the bubble headed people.
"Where have I seen them before," I asked.
"Tommy, look," says Dil. I looked and we both saw that Glowface guy. He's the owner of Egghead Toys!
"Should we make actual toys, Sir," asks Larry.
"We probably should keep our cover," says Glowface, "and to make money."
"But what do we know about toys, Sir," asks Lorenzo.
"I don't know, my first toy was a doomsday device... I had weird parents!"
"Come on, Dil," I said.
. . .
We saw the dollies they were making.
"So, what do we do," asks Dil.
"We have to stop the dollies," I said.
Stu's POV:
I was still trying to make Patty Pants perfect.
"Maybe I can help," says Dr. Agon.
"You'll just make it into a destructive robot," I said.
"Fair point," says Dr. Agon.
Tommy's POV:
Dil and I were messing with the dollies, but then Glowface and Larry grabbed us. "So, you knew about my using this place as an evil lair," says Glowface.
"Or they're here by accident, Sir," says Larry, "where are their parents?"
"Lorenzo, is it so hard to believe that these kids are geniuses," asks Glowface.
"Yes," says Larry.
I then hit Glowface's arm with my stewdriver and then hit Larry's leg, making him let go of Dil. We then both ran.
"Man, that screwdriver of his is effective," says Glowface, "after them!"
Glowface and Larry then chase after us.
Stu's POV:
I better face the facts... I'm a failure. I then put the TV on.
Tommy's POV:
Dil and I then got on the machine and Glowface and Larry chased after us, but then we all got through the thing, and we all came out wearing girl clothes. "The worst part is that this dress makes me look fat," says Glowface.
Then Glowface's electic thing makes the machine go nuts and it explodes...
. . .
Glowface, Larry, Dil, and I are now all covered in dust. The police then came.
. . .
Don't ask how, but Dil and me are back home. "Glowface, head of S.N.A.F.U. bought Eggbert Toys," asks Grandpa.
"And now Eggbert is being shut down," says Daddy, "best thing ever to have happened to me!"
"We did it, Dil," I said.
Glowface's POV:
Lorenzo and I managed to get away from the cops.
AGU Adventurers' POV:
Tommy: Toyland, toyland
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it
You are ever happy there
Childhood's joy land
Mystic merry toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can ne'er return again
When you've grown up, my dears
And are as old as I
You'll laugh and ponder on the years
That roll so swiftly by my dears
That roll so swiftly by
Childhood's joy land
Mystic merry toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can ne'er return again!
In the next chapter, Tommy takes on the Junk Food Kid.
