(Timothy: The Never-ending story, Part 1) It was a dark and stormy night. Larry and Alfred are in the mansion playing a game of Trivial Pursuit. "Okay, Larry, It's your turn!" exclaims Alfred. Larry lands on an orange space. "You got 'Famous Inventors!' Your question is, 'Who invented the Franklin stove?'" "Oh! I know this one! It's 'The Franklin Mint!'" answers Larry. "Uhm, not quite. My turn!" Alfred rolls and lands on a blue square. "You have 'Famous Brick Numbers.' 'How many bricks fell from the wall of Jericho?'" "Just about all of them did." "That's right. Boy, I sure hope Bumblyburg is doing better than I am." Larry turns around and sees the Larry-Signal in the sky. "Alfred, I've got work to do. Consider our game... postponed." (Jo_Crimp: part 2) Just as Larry-Boy was leaving (in the Larry-Mobile), the phone rang. "Hello?" "Uncle Alfred?" "Georgiana, how are you?" "I'm fine, Uncle Alfred. Don't forget to pick me up at 9 sharp tomorrow." "Don't worry, I'll be there." "Bye, see you tomorrow!" "Goodbye." (Timothy: part 3) Meanwhile, Larry-Boy was speeding down the main street of Bumblyburg on his way to the Police Station. As soon as he got there, Commissioner Scooter comes running out. "Larry-Boy! Thank goodness you're here!" yells Scooter. "What happened this time, Scooter?" inquired Larry-Boy. "Well, I dun't know how to tell you this, but it seems like we have a wee problem on our hands." "Don't worry. Good news or bad, I can take it." (Jo_Crimp: part 4) Scooter lead Larry-Boy down a long, long corridor to room 1,562. "What's in here?" Larry- Boy asked. "Well, we don't rightly know," Scooter replied, "That's why we called you." "I see. Actually, I don't see anything but the door. Why don't we go in?" As they stepped in, Larry-Boy was left speechless. For, standing before him, was something that was like nothing he'd ever seen in his entire life... (Timothy: part 5) "Uhm, you called me down here to look at a giant waffle covered in melted cheese?" remarked Larry-Boy. (VeggieFreak97: part 6) "That's right," said Scooter. "Hmm, I know just the answer to the problem," replied Larry-Boy. "Well for goodness sakes what is it!" Scooter exclaims. "I have some friends who are in the eating business." said Larry-Boy. "Eating business?" "Oh, um, well they like to eat whatever they see." replied Larry-Boy. "Hang on while I page them" (Timothy: part 7) "No! Wait! Nobody should eat this giant, radioactive waffle!" cried a voice from behind the waffle. Nobody could see who had made this cry. Larry-Boy and Scooter looked all over, but could not find the source of the voice. Out of nowhere, the blue wind-up lobster strolled over to a curtain and pulled it back. "No! Don't open the curtain!" As the red curtain opened, they saw a small, green pea in a lab coat. (Jo_Crimp: part 8) "Who are you?" Larry-Boy asked. "I am Enrie [Editors note: pronounced On-Ree] Pea, and this...waffle was part of an experiment in food enlargement. If successful, this waffle would have fed a family of five for fifteen years! But something went horrible wrong! And now, just look at it." They did. What Scooter had thought was cheese was actually some sort of radioactive sauce. "Well, what should we do with it?" asked Larry-Boy. "There is one possibility," Enrie replied. (Timothy: part 9) "But, it is too risky," continued Enrie. "What is it!?!?!?!" yelled Scooter. "I will need to get my special, experimental, radioactive-proof suit and try to eat it myself," answered Enrie. "I'm the hero. I should eat it," commented Larry-Boy. "No! You can't!!!" cautioned Enrie. "Well, why not?" asked Larry-Boy. "Because I only made one suit and it's in my size!" Enrie went back behind the curtain and put on his suit. Later, he returned in a yellow suit with pink polka dots. "Don't laugh! It's the only fabric that was left," scolded Enrie. Enrie used the small opening to start eating away at the waffle. He ate and ate and ate some more. His size continued to grow, even after he busted out of his suit. Scooter screamed, "Oh, no! He's grown! He's... he's..." "He's Peazilla!!!" Larry-Boy exclaimed. (Jo_Crimp: part 10) Yes! For, not only had the waffle affected Enrie's size, it had also affected his brain. He began to head for the other end of Bumblyburg. "I must follow him!" Larry-Boy shouted, and jumped into the Larry-Mobile. Enrie, however, had two advantages: His size and a head start. No matter how fast Larry-Boy drove, Enrie was at least 100 KMs ahead of him. All through the night they raced, leaving an...interesting trail of destruction behind. They went beyond Bumblyburg, through Bugsleyville, and were almost to Dinkletown, when a message crackled through Larry-Boy's intercom. "Master Larry! Come in Larry-Boy!" "Yes, Alfred?" "I need to be going now. If you have any trouble, it'll have to wait until 10. I'm going to pick up my niece Georgiana from the airport. You did remember she was coming, didn't you?" "Um...Of course I did! So long, Alfr-!" Unfortunately, while Larry-Boy was speaking, he forgot to look where he was driving and crashed into a tree! "Um, Alfred, I think I've got a problem..." (Timothy: part 11) And, boy did he have a problem, for when he hit that tree it yelled, "Ouch!" The tree turns around, stripping its disguise to reveal that it wasn't a tree at all but in reality an alien from the planet Zradniko, a planet filled with creatures that are half broccoli and half cow. "Wscjkz! Wscjkz! Come in Wscjkz! We have a new addition to our collection," he said in a raspy voice. "This is Wscjkz. What did you bring for us this time, Vzklrtmnpbqy?" responded the voice coming from the small badge that he wore. "It appears to be a pickle." "Uhm, I'm a cucumber," corrected Larry-Boy. "No matter. You will soon make me General Vzklrtmnpbqy!" A huge space ship comes down and hovers above them. A beam of light surrounds them both and takes Vzklrtmnpbqy and Larry-Boy, leaving the Larry-Mobile behind. (VeggieFreak97: part 12) "Master Larry, Larry-Boy, what is happening?" Alfred screams. With no reply from Larry-Boy Alfred decides to take matters into his own um "hands?". He decides that Georgiana will have to wait. But then, he remembers that Dad Asparagus owes him a favor. Alfred calls Dad and asks if he could pick up his niece. While rushing around trying to figure out what to do from his trusty computer, the doorbell rings. Just in time, Dad Asparagus has dropped by to drop off Alfred's niece, but who should be with them Junior. After Dad leaves, Alfred turns to Junior and Georgiana and lets them in on his secret. He has made tiny spandex costumes for them. So now we have two pint-sized heroes. Asparagus-Boy and Asparagus-Girl. Both of the kids are real excited to be out on their first adventure. (Jo_Crimp: part 13) Alfred, Asparagus-Boy, and Asparagus-Girl headed toward the co-ordinates of the remains of the Larry-Mobile. It was a long drive, so Alfred let Asparagus-Boy and Asparagus-Girl listen to the radio. They had a slight argument as to which station to listen to before deciding on 92.5, Bumblyburg's official Country station. They tuned in just in time to hear "Watermelon Crawl" and "Strawberry Wine," not to mention "This Kiss." Unfortunately, Alfred couldn't take that for too long. So, after 15 minutes, he switched to a Classical station, causing another argument. This produced silence from everyone until they reached the crash site. (VeggieFreak97: part 14) "Good heavens," Junior exclaims while Alfred is nervously looking around for Larry-Boy. Out of the corner of her eye Asparagus-Girl sees a tiny piece of metal. She immediately starts having strange thoughts, her being a science-fiction freak and all. "Uncle Alfred, I think Larry-Boy has been abducted by aliens." "Oh, Asparagus-Girl, that would be nonsense, there haven't been any aliens in Bumbly county since the fib a few years ago. Any rational being wouldn't want to come up against Larry-Boy." "But Uncle Alfred, Larry-Boy didn't solve that problem, you did!" she persisted. "Sure that's what everyone says, the butler did it." "Now quit teasing me Uncle Alfred, I know it was you, besides do you really think that Larry- Boy could handle this on his own?" (Laerry: part 15) Once they arrived at the crash site, Archibald and the two asparagus kids were amazed to see a tree-like space alien carrying Larry-Boy into a large flashing spaceship. "Oh no," cried 'Asparagus-Boy' "We're too late!" The three watched in dismay as the UFO took off into the nighttime sky and Peazilla continued his reign of terror in downtown Bumblyburg. (Jo_Crimp: part 16) All this was just too much for them. All three of them began to scream! Their screaming was so loud, it attracted the attention of Peazilla. He turned and began making his way towards them! (Timothy: part 17) But the real reason that they were screaming was because they had just realized that they were caught in a strange loop, which explains why they got there to see that Larry-Boy was gone and then returning again to see the aliens of Zradniko take Larry-Boy onto their space ship. "Peazilla's radioactivity must've created some sort of Time Bubble!" cried Asparagus-Girl. (Jo_Crimp: part 18) Meanwhile, back at Larry Manor, Dad Asparagus had come to pick up Junior. He knocked, but he didn't get an answer. Larry Manor is pretty big. You could knock and not get an answer if they were at the other end of it. This had happened to Dad before, so he went in to look for them. As he was searching, he passed a bookcase. He paused a moment to look at the books. He saw one by Billy Graham Cracker. "I've been meaning to read this," he said, lifting it out. Suddenly a trap-door open beneath him! He went down a long tube and came out in...The Larry-Cave! (Timothy: part 19) Meanwhile, Larry-Boy is in the spaceship flying 27 zillion miles away from the Earth. Vzklrtmnpbqy has strapped Larry-Boy to what appears to be an ironing board. "Are we there yet?" asks Larry-Boy. "No! Now be quiet. We have 27 zillion more miles to go before we reach Zradniko!" replied Vzklrtmnpbqy. "Would that be Earth miles or Zradniko miles?" inquired Larry-Boy. "Don't be silly. It's Zradniko miles. One Zradniko mile is equal to 300 Earth miles. Wscjkz? What's our current speed?" ".9 miles per hour, sir," the obedient alien replied. "Oh great," said Larry-Boy, in disgust. "Oh, good! That means we only have 28-1T! years to examine you!" Vzklrtmnpbqy said, evilly. (Jo_Crimp: part 20) "How long is that?" Larry-Boy asked. Instead of getting a reply, strange music began to play. At first it seemed cacophonous, but as it played it became intriguing. It was like nothing he'd ever heard before. "What is this?" he asked. "Fretcds and Gijk's Great Hits," replied Vzklrtmnpbqy. As Larry-Boy continued to listen he was lulled into a deep, deep sleep....
