Chapter 3: The Fright Stuff:
A Tale of Two Witches:
Dr. Eggman wanted to prove to everyone how scary he can be. "So, they think I'm funny, huhh? Well, I'll show them I'm the scariest ghost there ever was!"
"Sir, are you talking to me," asks Snively.
"No, I was clearly talking to myself," says Dr. Eggman, "check your ego. Now, if you excuse me, I have to prove I'm the scariest ghost in all of Grim Hills!"
Dr. Eggman: I try to spook these folks
But they just don't flinch
I scare a mile
But they don't shove, not one inch
These monster kiddies think
I'm here for the fun
But they'll grow up to see
I'm Fright Number One
Lookey here
It's the Fright Stuff
Gonna be a real fright time
The scary tricks are called fright-ster
It's looking like I'm out of sight-ter
Why you laughing at the prankster
Can't you see I've got the wrong time
This ghost has got the right stuff
To keep it spooky for a long time
Come on, guys this is the fright stuff
How could I be any clearer
Can't you see I'm dynamite stuff
Just as plain as looking in the mirror!
Dr. Eggman then sees his reflection. "So, that's why no one's scared," says Dr. Eggman, "it's because I'm too handsome! I need to make myself look scarier. I better get to work."
. . .
Dr. Eggman creates a machine that should turn him into the most terrifying thing in Grim Hills.
"Time to see if it works," says Dr. Eggman. However, there's one thing he forgot. Being a ghost, the energy beam from the ray would pass right through him and instead, it just destroys the lair. "Right, ghosts don't have DNA to alter. Maybe science isn't the answer... maybe I need magic!"
