Chapter 2 - Stickle the Dinosaur (Chapter 1): The French Merman

Our Story Begins when I was Spying On the Curious Gumby... I watched Gumby as He wandered into the Rocket Ship When I was Spying On Him... But Yes... Indeed. I spied on Him. He was such a Disobedient Child Who failed to Listen to his Parents Warnings. But it is the good thing that I've warned the Moon People About Gumby's planning to trespass. Although Gumby was a Nice Guy, That Doesn't mean he is immune to his Flaws. He can be quit a Naughty Boy. A Naughty, Naughty Boy. How could he Allow himself to go Astray? How is Gumby being a Naughty Naughty Clay Boy? Well, He disobeyed his Parents... Yep... I stowed Away into his Rocket Ship without Gumby Knowing I was Stowing Away.... 

Later... When He arrived at the Moon, He exited the Rocket and explored there... Meanwhile, I Implanted the Bomb inside the Rocket, Teleported away, And the Rocket Exploded... Yep... Now Gumby cannot get back Home... 

Meanwhile, While Gumby was on the Moon, I meet Gumby's Parents as I disguised myself as the Messenger.

"Are you Gumby's Parents, Gumbo and Gumba?" I asked in my Disguise.

"Yes," said Gumbo. 

"We are Gumby's Parents," said Gumba.

"I see... I am the Messenger," I said. "I Come to Inform you That Your Naughty Son, Gumby Disobeyed you and He was Stranded on the Moon."

"How did you know?" asked Gumbo. 

"Why don't you look through the telescope and find out for yourself?" I suggested. 

"But the Moon is Up High," said Gumbo. "We do not have a Rocket."

"Nonsense, Gumbo, You are a Firefighter, were you not?" I said.

"Why yes I was," said Gumbo.

"Then Perhaps You should use the ladder on your Fire engine... If you want to rescue your Son Gumby, Remember to Bring the Eskimo Coat and the Alien Repellent with you. And Use the Ladder on your fire Engine."

"Are you sure?" asked Gumbo.

"Trust me," I said. "This is my Only Suggestion. to rescue your Son Gumby." 

"Well, I guess that makes perfect Sense," said Gumbo. "Thank you for the Message, Messenger."

"It is the Least I Can Do," I said. "Oh, And When You Bring Him Back, Make Sure to take him to the Hospital and Revive him. And remember, He must use the Gumbometer."

"A Gumbometer?" asked Gumbo and Gumba.

"It's like the thermometer, like when it reaches 100 degrees when it's hot, and 46 degrees when it's cold."

I gave them the Gumbometer just in case Gumby Needs it. Then I departed and disappeared. 

Then... I decided to Continue my Spying Mission. That was before I met an Orange Flying Merman with a Purple Hair and a Black Beret. He is From France... He is a French Merman with a French accent. 

"Sacre Bleu, Ze Purple Dinosaur," said the Flying Orange Merman. "What is he up to zis time? Well, It is time I go and find out for myself, no?"

I sensed the Orange Flying Merman was Following Me... He greeted me.

"Bonjour, Monsieur," said the Orange Flying Merman with the purple hair and a Black Beret. 

"Who the heck are you?" I asked while I was startled. "Can't you see that I was busy?"

"Pardon moi, Mon ami," said the orange flying Merman. "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Screw ze Flying Merman. And your name is?"

"Stickle," I said. "Stickle the Dinosaur. What do you want from me?"

"Well," said the Flying Orange Merman. "I was looking for ze Lady Mermaid. Have you seen her?"

"Who are you saying the Lady flying Mermaid?" I asked.

"Well," said Screw. "She is ze Blue Flying Mermaid with beautiful Blonde hair and Long Eyelashes, and White bow on her head. I do not know who she is."

"I know who she is," I said. "Her name is Goo. Don't tell Anyone that I was Here... "

"wait... You are ze Slave to Dr. Zveegee, are you not?"

"Quiet," i whispered. "Yes, I was a Slave to Dr. Zveegee... In fact, I cannot stand working for him...."

"Aw, It is a shame, No?" said Screw. "Perhaps I can mess with his machine, non?"

"What's with the Accent anyway?" I asked.

"I am from France, Non?" said Screw.

"Hmm, I am Not sure what you are Saying, Screw," I said... "But I've got Mysteries to Solve you know."

"ze mysteries you say?" asked Screw. "Ah, Yes, Ze mystery Solver. You make ze great mystery solver ever, do you not?"

"Scram, Frenchfly!" I hissed.

"Okay, Bon voyage," said Screw. "Let me Know when you change your mind, Au revoir!" The Screw flew away. 

Man, that was weird, A French Orange Flying Merman with the French Accent... Where's his Self Control? I still need to figure out the Answers. I still need to continue my Spying Mission. But... I've got Other Plans, too. But what? Well, That would be telling, Wouldn't it? But... I was determined to Find Out for Myself then....

I spied On Pokey Coming out of the Book Without getting Caught.... But when the time Comes, I will Meet You know Who, Face to Face. But I cannot Reveal the Name of Who am I spying On... Well, At least NOT YET. But Someday... I will meet that Yellow Dinosaur, Face to Face. 

I have to keep hiding without getting Caught.... But I cannot reveal myself to him, Until we meet, Face to Face.

But that is How I met with the Blockheads in Secret.

"Blockheads," I said... "I need your help."

"Well," said Blockhead G. "If it isn't Stickle the Dinosaur. What do you Want?"

"Yeah," said Blockhead J. "This has better be important."

"This is important," I said to the Blockheads. "Listen Carefully. Don't tell Anyone I am Here. I am just a Messenger."

"The Messenger?" the Blockheads laughed. "Why would we listen to a Messenger wannabe like you?"

"SILENCE!" I Slapped the Blockheads in the Face. "Anyways, I saw a Red Pony with Blue Eyes and Black Mane... I need you to Capture him and make him a Slave."

"What's in it For Us?" asked the Blockheads.

"I'll give you some Ice cream if you Help me," I said.

The Blockheads are interested. "Ice Cream? Did you Say, Ice Cream?"

"Yes," I said to the Blockheads. "Bring me the little Lost Pony, I may need him ALIVE."

"Aw Man," said the Blockheads. "Why can't we at least Slaughter the Pony?"

"Silence, you Fools!" I snapped. "Killing is NOT Allowed. All I wanted is to Give him a Little Surprise..."

"What surprise?" asked the Blockheads.

"Well, That would be telling, wouldn't it?" I said. I know this Little Pony. His Name is Pokey. He has been Friends With Goo and that Yellow Dinosaur. Hmph! not going to say his name whatsoever. And Yes... I have a Plan to Sabotage Gumby and Pokey's Friendship, BUT.... I won't do it, at least NOT Yet... For now, We must be Calm... And Patient. GUMBY Will Continue to Misbehave... The More he misbehaves, the Greater Chance I will CAPTURE POKEY. And Not Only That... I will Also plan to Capture Gumby's Parents, too. BUT I won't Do it... At Least NOT YET. "Foolish adventures. The Boy Will Continue to misbehave... It is a Great mistake Dragging a Pony in his Adventures. I may Need him so I Can Train him.... Capture That Pony, and Make Sure... DO NOT TALK to Them, Remain Silent. Or Else!"

"Deal!" said the Blockheads as they shook my paws.

"Good," I said. "Now Get to Work."

"what about you?" asked the Blockheads.

"I've got a Secret Mission to take care of... It's Private." Then I teleported Away.

"Hmm," said Blockhead J. "Sometimes I wonder what Stickle's Secret mission is like."

G slapped J in the Face. "AH SHADDAP! It's better we focus on Capturing the Little Lost Pony."

"Aw Man," said Blockhead J. "Do I have to?"

"Yes," said Blockhead G. "Now Get Packing! We've got some Bounty Hunting to do!"

"Sure, Boss," said Blockhead J. "Anything you say, Boss."

Yep, That's How the Blockheads became Bounty Hunters. They starting packing up some stuff and decided to go Bounty Hunting. the Search of the Little Lost Pony.

Meanwhile, I Spied a French Merman, Screw, Flying in the Air, Searching for Goo. I am Curious, What's On his Mind... Well... I was determined to find out what was going on. 

I sensed also the Blue Mermaid Flying in the Air as Well... But whatever she is Looking for, I am Not sure.... But I better Make Sure to investigate without getting caught.

So... I searched for a Place to hide, And I hid in the Bush, I hid inside and Waited Patiently for the Moment to Come... I Closed me Eyes, and Sensed them.

Meanwhile, Screw notice Goo Flying in the Sky.

"Ah," Said Screw. "Le Flying Mermaid Fatale. Bonjour, Mon Cherie."

"Ugh," Goo said. "You again? Screw, I told you I am Not interested."

"Ah, You are ze Girl I have been searching for, No?" said Screw. As He offered her a Flower. "It is Periwinkle Flower, No? Zay is Why I Zought It fits your beautiful Blue Skin... Not only you are beautiful... You Are Brave, Courageous, and Determined... You Are ze Girl and I Am Ze Boy... So... How about ze Date, NON?"

"Ew! No way, Frenchfry," Goo was disgusted with Screw's Flirting as she Spits Gooball at Him. "Can't you learn some self-control already? I am Not interested!" She Flew away.

"Ah, Flirt," Screw sighed sadly. "It is sad zat she has rejected moi, non? Now What? How Can I win ze Girl's heart? Le sigh." Screw slowly descended to the Ground. "Sacre Bleu, I am Heartbroken by ze Rejection... Nobody Loves me... Nobody Loves Screw le Merman."

I noticed that Screw was Heartbroken... I saw Screw sitting by the Fountain and Lamenting, So I came out of the hiding and talked to him.

"Hey, Screw, What's Wrong?" I asked. "You Look really Sad."

"Le Sigh. Oui, Stickle, I am Le Sad because Goo does not Love me anymore," said Screw Sadly. "Sad, Was it Not?"

I sighed. "Oh... Listen Screw... I do not want you to be Sad, Okay? But Goo doesn't even Know you, at least Not yet..."

"But what else can I do?" asked Screw. "Do you not have any suggestions what Else I should do?"

"Well," I said. "If you want Goo to Love you Back. Perhaps you should do More Research, Practice Painting, And Practicing Cooking, or perhaps, Plant some Garden."

"How is zat going to Work?" asked Screw.

"Hmm," I said. "Perhaps you can build something new. All you have to do is do some research..."

"But... I cannot read," said Screw.

"Why not?" I asked.

"I have dyslexia," said Screw. "And I cannot Read anyzing. People will make fun of Moi, and Zey will zink I am an EEDIOT. No wonder I stink at ze Girls. Sacre Bleu."

"Calm Down Will You?" I said. "I can Read... So I am Going to Teach you to Read."

"Really? You really mean it, Stickle?" said Screw.

"I know it," I said. "Let's go to the Library... And Let's see if we can learn you to read."

"Well," said Screw. "Zis is going to be ze Long time... But I will try ze best I can, Will I not?

"Trust me," I said. "I know you will."
