It was a cold, dark, stormy night (of course) and Barnaby Cumbersnitch was alone in the forest searching for...
his shovel hit something that sent up a shower of....
sent a chill down his spine. Barnaby dipped a finger in the powder and dabbed a little on his tongue "Ah ha" he said "It's...
...exactly what I thought! That's why Grandma Harriet never wanted to...
...leave the house". Barnaby raised his shovel, ready to dig up whatever lay in the hole he'd begun, when from the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of...
...a Batman costume. "Betty," said Barnaby "What on earth are you doing here dressed as Batman?"
"Well," she replied "Obviously I'm...
"Well," she replied "Obviously I'm...
...waiting for you. I've been searching all over town because I need to tell you about...
...the two strange men who were watching our house earlier. One of them had...
this treasure i'm about to dig up. Please don't stay there doing nothing and help me out". But when Betty started moving toward Barnaby she....
tripped and landed flat on her face. Pulling herself up, she turned to see what she had caught her foot on. Sticking out of the ground was...
A foot. A kid's foot. "Oh my God!!" Yelled Betty, and got Barnabys' attention. "What da..!" He said, hurrying to the ground where the foot was showing. They started digging when they realized...
...they were not alone. Heading in their direction they saw a beam of light from a...
...sort of ghostly floating figure. They couldn't quite make it out, but it seemed to be coming towards them too quickly for them to get away. "Uh oh," Betty whispered, "we'd better...
...hide".
The pair quickly ran for cover behind a big tree. Peering around the trunk Barnaby noticed that the ghostly figure was carrying...
The pair quickly ran for cover behind a big tree. Peering around the trunk Barnaby noticed that the ghostly figure was carrying...
.... a very weird object with sparkling colorful lights. the ghostly figure, approached the object to the foot on the ground and...
...started muttering strange words - almost like a magic spell. There was a brilliant flash of light and the foot started to...
... emerge out of the ground and after, what seemed like an hour for Betty and Barnaby, a small creature was standing next to the ghostly figure. It had a light by its own now. The creature, looked at the direction where the two were hiding and then...
...started to whistle an unusual melody. Against their will, Betty and Barnaby felt themselves moving from their hiding place and towards the two figures. They stopped directly in front of the small creature, who opened it's mouth and said...
...Why to hide? There's nothing to be afraid of. I am Fohohi, your child, from the future, and this is my guardian, Tertrows, we came here to warn you about the...
...fact that Christmas is nearly here and you'd better get your shopping done!"
Betty turned to Barnaby "Quick, let's get to....

started to dance. Barnaby slammed his foot on the brake and said...
The marshmallow man did not like this, so he...
and crushing the front end. "I think we better walk" said Betty, opening her door...
...before the marshmallow man spotted them and gave chase. Twenty minutes later, Betty and Barnaby arrived at...
...the town bookstore and ran inside...
...were hopping all over the place covered in....
...excrement, supplied by the green bearded goat from the land of...
...Rabbithead. This excrement had magical powers which made the frogs...
...Dance with such joy, which impressed the...
...Strictly Come Dancing judges who had just got off their tour bus parked outside.
...Wearing bin bags, for they lost all their clothes in the...
...poker game that they'd played with the X-Factor judges the night before. "This is getting weird" said Betty, just as a....
...Invisible shoelace from Florence flew over...
...but as it was invisible, nobody knew it was there until it hit....
...The cheese touched toenail belonging to...
...Ant (or Dec - nobody's sure which is which) who had tagged along on the tour bus because...
...They needed name tags and they wanted to jig about in jelly to the old song...
.."Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler.
"It's all gone a bit Saturday night TV around here" said Barnaby "Maybe we should...

..."Kill them, no one dances that song, but me! They better not... They did... they got down on their knees! We'll blame it all on the...

"What on earth are you talking about?" said Betty.
"I don't know" said Barnaby "I licked a frog and it all got a bit surreal around here. I'm sorry"
Just then...
"What on earth are you talking about?" said Betty.
"I don't know" said Barnaby "I licked a frog and it all got a bit surreal around here. I'm sorry"
Just then...
... Hey you two!!! Are you coming or what?!! Betty and Barnaby looked toward the bus and when they were about to reach the door, showed up the giant marshmellow man yelling....
"Why did you run from me? I just wanted to play!". So Betty and Barnaby invited the marshmallow man to join them on the bus and they all headed off to...
...The Land of Oz. Along the road they came across...
