CHAPTER SIX: "I SMELL A MONTAGE"

Patsy stormed out of the restaurant at nearly the speed of Mach One. She was soon followed by Lazlo, who told her, "I had no idea you were that scared of a cheese steak." Patsy was still panting from her self called "near bloated" experience, turned around, put another fake smile on her face, and replied, "Yeah well, the point is that it's behind us now. So what now?"

Lazlo looked around them, and he saw it: a poster with that read, "Carnival in Town." The monkey then got really excited and yelled, "I know! Let's go to the carnival. My parents always took me to one every August back where I come from." This must have really struck something deep within the mongoose, because she then had a real smile on her face, grabbed Lazlo by the wrist, and practically dragged him as fast as she could toward where the carnival was.

Unknown to both of them, Clam was watching them from the door of the restaurant, and he heard where they were going. As he walked out the door, he was followed by Raj, who was just getting the last bit of spaghetti out of his trunk. "They're going to carnival." He told him. Raj, in a panicked state, checked the camera to see if it was damaged, fortunately, it wasn't. "Well, as long as we can avoid anymore "accidents," we're bound to get a photo soon enough. Let's go Clam."

Clam sighed as Raj ran after the couple, and said to himself, "I smell a montage."

(Now play the song "Dani California" by Red Hot Chili Peppers in this part. Every montage has to have music don't they?)

The two different scout duos entered the carnival, each with a different kind of eagerness on them. Lazlo was excited to go to a carnival like the ones his parents took him to. Patsy was certain that a carnival was one of the most romantic spots to go to. Raj was ready to snap that shot he was looking for. Clam was just a huge fan of roller coasters.

Which was the first thing Lazlo and Patsy went to. As they sat near the front of the car, Raj and Clam sat near the back. However, nearly as soon as the car goes up the first hill, Raj begins to regret following them onto this ride, he was shivering, and his eyes were as wide as pancakes; but Clam couldn't be more excited. When the car started to go down the first, steep hill, Lazlo, Patsy, and Clam were having a blast; Raj meanwhile was screaming his heart out in absolute terror. To him, it was far worse than taking a ride with Clam on his log car earlier. When the car came back to the entrance area, Patsy, followed by Lazlo, ran off to get to their next destination. Clam meanwhile was trying to make Raj budge, since he was now practically glued to the seat.

The next ride was a smoother paced ride, the Ferris wheel. The good news for Raj was that the ride would move slowly enough for a good photograph. The bad news was that Raj and Clam were on the opposite side of the wheel from the Bean and Squirrel duo; thus further adding to Raj's frustration.

The next ride was another one of Clam's favorites: the bumper cars. Raj was standing outside of the gate and just about to snap the shot he was looking for, when Clam dragged him into a car; due to the fact that a kid his size couldn't go alone. And there was simply no way to get a photo with all the bumping going on. It was a wonder that the two main groups didn't see each other during the makeshift demolition derby.

(The song stops)

Lazlo was so excited to go to the next attraction, a laser tag arena. He told Patsy about what it's like back home, so he was pretty excited to finally show her what laser tag is Patsy on the other hand was happy to spend time with Lazlo period. "Come on, hurry Patsy, the carnival could close any minute!" Lazlo said excitedly. But before they could enter, a mysterious voice cried out, "Well, look who's here…"
