[Fozzie Bear]

Beauregard will be the game host.

Don't forget to check the Role Play Rules, Q&A thread here:
http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=15183

Further game-specific rules will be posted soon.

[Beauregard]

Yes, it is finally here. I am your game-host for tonight if you do not mind...get it game, mind? Oh, that's not funny. Excuse me...

Super-Muppets, staring the MC Gang: When Robin was flipping through his latest DC magazine, there was a small explosion downstairs in the Muppet Labs. As a result, the Muppets found themselves sucked into a world that was not there own. Now, with new identities, new names, and new enamies, they must first, survive, and second, escape back. But with no memory of the 'real' world...how can they escape?

Game Specific Rules:

1. Each player must play one super hero
2. Each super hero has limited (no more than three) powers
3. Each player has no memory of the 'real' world until the game-host says so
4. Each player believes themselves to be the real super heros, with memories of their pervious "Metropolis" lives
5. Each player must enjoy themselves
6. No pinching

Game will comence on the next post...

-- ooc --
Beau, I tried to PM you a question, but your limit is full so it wouldn't send, so I hope it's okay to just ask it on here. Forgive me if this throws off your thread. So, we can be any muppet characters? And do we just jump in and start or should everyone have established characters first?

[Beauregard]

All the Muppets felt themselves falling, then they were in their super-hero homes, with their super-hero identies intact. Moments after orienting themselves, they recieve a call calling each hero to downtown Muptropalis Central.

They must head there to recieve instructions...

*Beauregard streatches*

A hard nighty at the club...cleaning...oh, look, a call on my bleeper.

*walks slowly into cleaning closet...*

*...and emerges, The Janitor Supreme*

I better get down there...

EDIT: In answer to Mrs Pepper's questian, head to the "Role-Play Rules" thread, post your identity there, then jump in and play, any questians, post in that thread

[redBoobergurl]

Meanwhile, the explosion was so powerful it reached all the way over to Sesame Street. Cookie Monster was just getting ready to eat his favorite batch of Chocolate Chip Macaroons when he felt the power of the explosion.

Cookie: Hmmm, wonder what that was?
*phone rings*
Cookie: Hello? Oh me get down there right away!! *runs to the closet and grabs cape* Faster than speeding bullet. It me, Captain COOOOKIIE (says it like in the cartoon Captain Caveman, if anyone's seen that before). Me go to Muptropalis now!

[Fozzie Bear]

*Standing and going to MC, Fantastic Fozzie stretches to the door, and squeezes his way through the key-hole.*

Sure, I have a key and could open the door; but, this way's more fun!! Wocka Wocka!!

[Aaron]

have no fear OVERDOG is here!

[MrsPepper]

**Mr. Bassman hops off the bus, and begins to walk down the road. He is carrying his bass in a case slung over one arm, in the other he is holding a small amplifier. He finds the door to Mutropolis Central and lets himself in, waiting for further instruction. He sees someone else is already there (who we know is Fozzie) and nods to him in recognition.**

Hey man, do we know yet why we're here?

[Beauregard]

*walks through a wall into the main square of "Down town Muptropolis"*

Yup, sometimes when I'm not looking where I'm going I walk into things...oh, hello Captain Cookie. Didn't expect to see you here. I got an emergancy bleepy-thing.

Ahh, wocka wocka to you, sir. Hey, Floyd...does anyone know why we are here? Is anyone else comign I wonder, looks like all of us super-heros have been summon-afied...

[redBoobergurl]

Me not sure why me here, me just got call to come quickly. Maybe we find out soon. Me hope so, me was making favorite chocolate chip mackeroons.

[theprawncracker]

Pepe Kingprawn is seen at the front door of his apartment talking to a woman...

Si, so jew have my e-mail adress, and I have yours. So just drop me a line and we'll take it from there. Hokay?

*Closes door*

Ha ha. I love dis power!

*Pepe's watch starts ringing"

Mios dios! Emergency! This looks like a job for *Spins in super fast circle* De PrawnCracker! Hokay?

[Beauregard]

*looks at Cookie*

Ri-ght...

*blinks*

Once all the super-muppets have arrived, including those who are not yet voiced, a giant voice sounded.

VOICE: Good morning *feedback* sorry, can you hear me now? Can you? Ah, good. I summoned you here today to tell you a little secret *giggles* but maybe I shan't...oh, ok, then, since you insisted. Actually, not. I'll first do some...shall we call them tests? This is the first test of your super hero skill that will convince me whether or not to tell...There is a bank being robbed in Muptropolis, somewhere. No one will call you, you shan't find out...unless you find it yourselves. Stop them, get the badies jailed...and I'll be one step closer to telling you..ta ta for now.

That was weird...I say would should spit up...or, um, split...

[theprawncracker]

Hokay...

Well, I'm with the janitor man, I say we split up. Hokay? I'll go check de First National Bank Of Muptropolis. Hokay?

*runs outside to The Prawn Mobile*

Dis is so cool!

[Beauregard]

Note: We have three main banks,(First National Bank Of Muptropolis, Gnatwest, Penguin's Bar Bank) plus three smaller banks (Gathering of Gold Silk Int, All that Glitters, What we Count is What You Get) And there is a road-delivery of gold heeading from Gnatwest, to All that Glitters. And a helicopter transfer of csh from Gathering to Penguin.

VOICE: Vhy art thou standing around? Hmm..cool accent...*cough* You don't have long.

Let's go...I'll take the Penguin Bar Bank...I know the penguins well, well, Ii know them.

[Fozzie Bear]

I found a police scanner? Can we use that to see where we go? Whoops...no batteries. Who's got the power of electrification??

[Beauregard]

*scratches head* I can turn into water...I once did it by the electric-pipes and got a bit of a shock...I don't touch electricity any more...which is why it takes more than one Janitor Supreme to change a light bulb...too bad I'm not multiple man...

[Fozzie Bear]

Oh. Well, I'm going to rush down to the First National Bank of Muptropolis because...well, they have good suckers there. I like the "red" ones best! Up up and away!!

*Begins walking toward the bank.*
What? I can't fly.

[Beauregard]

*heads off in a different direction with some others*

When we get to the Penguin bar Bank, perhaps I could use my Duster trick to head in through the walls...and see what I can see...I'll try not to end up in the show-er cubicals this time...

[Harvey Towers]

*The Muppet Newsman (aka The Headliner) suddenly appears to read the latest bullitien*

Here is a Muppet News Flash! There was a breakdown today at the Electric Chicken Plant which may lead to a temporary shortage of eggs. In the short term, farmers have been asked to rely on battery hens. Battery hens?

*A large number of batteries fall - which are all swiftly dodged by the Headliner*

Batteries you asked for was it Fantastic Fozzie. More on that story later..

[Vibs]

I - Red the Streak - will fly up in the air using my highly tecnical
"Tale'a'bunch spin" which makes me work like a cute helicopter, if I see any bad guys I'll strike them with my Extra Energy Power that channel my engery and can move things!! Or maybe I'll just use my Radish Power!!

*Pigtails begin flickering and Red flies up in the sky*

[Beauregard]

Oooh, is it a bird is it a plane? Nope...*gets hit in the eye*...it's battries...

[Vibs]

*Shouts from somewhere up in the sky*

In case I said "Red The Streak" I really meant "The Red Streak!" ... I just wanted to see if anyone noticed!!!

[theprawncracker]

ooc:
I noticed Vibs...

[Beauregard]

*yells*

While you're up there Streaky Red, you might wanna check out the helliplane...with the big bunch of cash...

[Vibs]

ooc:
I noticed Vibs...

(SN: I think I know you did because Beau told me... :p - that was an odd sentence.)

[Beauregard]

GAME MASTER: *cough* Please keep Ooc's (Oragne Octopus Seas?) in the Role Play Q and A thread! Gacius!

[Harvey Towers]

*The Headliner shuffles his papers*

Concerns were raised today over the breeding of gazelles in captivity. Zoologists have suggested that they may mulitply more often on wide open plains... or is that planes

*The aforementioned plane lands on the ground in fromt of the Superheroes*

Voila! Details to follow...

[Beauregard]

*walks 'through' into Penguin Bar Bank.

Oh, look at that...it's a cool icy gadget for the punguins...

*over hears something*

Sounds like quacking...

*goes into next room...and ses tied up and gagged Penguins*

Meanwhile, the heloiopter from The Gathering, lands, drops off it's cash, right into the hands of a group of theives (as evidenced by the stripey clothes). The theives over power the driver, and the helicopter takes off again, now heading towards First National Bank Of Muptropolis

*pulls gaffer tape of the penguins, having seen nothing of this*

What happened? Huh? Quack happened? Ri-ght..*blinks*

[Vibs]

*Looks to the left*

Nothing there!

*Looks to the right*

Nothing there!

*Looks up in the air*

Nothing there!

*Looks down*

Nothing *sigh* there... Except the earth. And a helicopter... and a lot of thives... A HELICOPTER AND A LOT OF THIEVES!!! I guess this is a job for, ahem: THE RED STREAK!! - Diving In The Air Abilities Beyond Belief!!!

*Flies hyper down, too fast and hits the pavement*

[Harvey Towers]

News just in...

The actions of superhero the Red Streak were curtailed today when due to an accident while flying she hit the pavement. Sources suggest that the Red Streak's activites have been kerbed!

More information on "Muppet News Review"...

[theprawncracker]

*The Prawn Mobile pulls up to the First National Bank*

Here I am! De PrawnCracker is here to save de day! Hokay?

*Looks around and sees everyone going about their regular buisness*

De crooks are not here! Dis es a bunch of bologna! Hokay?

*Walks out and sees The Red Streak giving chase to the helicopter of thieves*

Mios dios! I better go help De Red Streak!

*Hops into The Prawn Mobile and presses the fly button*

Whoo! Dis es muy exciting. Hokay?

[MrsPepper]

**An old Volvo drives up to the All That Glitters Bank, and slows enough for Mr. Bassman to hop out, his bass in tow**
Hey uh, thank for the ride, man!
**The car drives away, and he keeps a lookout for the delivery truck that was supposed to arrive, as none of the other members had it covered yet**

[Beauregard]

*walks out of the Penguin Bar Bank*

Guys, I'm heading to All thet Glitters to tell them their cash were token, any of you who can fly, try to get that heliplane, the rest head over to the First national. Oh, and if any of you see that voice, or, um, hear it, you can tell him we wern't warn-ed about the moving vehical robberies.

*heads off, turning into a fast running hare*

[Vibs]

*Gets up from the pavement, a bit dizzy*

OoOuh... I mean I was just taking a powernap!! I'm gonna get that heliplanecopter now!!!

*Bunches start flickering again and The Red Streak speeds up and flies up in the sky really fast, crashes against the helicopter and falls down again and hits the same spot on the pavement as before*

[Beauregard]

*runs and runs*

*stops and pants*

*runs again*

*stops at All That Glitters*

Spak, spak...*turns back into Beau* Sorry, I for-get I was a hare. Mr Bassman, we got a trouble over at First National. Oh, look, here comes a dilivery van...And, hey, up above is a Heliplane.

Wonder why it's lowering a cable...

[theprawncracker]

*The Prawn Mobile is seen flying behind the heliplanecopter*

Set auto pilot, and open hatch. Hokay? *The hatch opens and The PrawnCracker climbs out.* Alright sound wave producing mariachis do your stuff! Hokay? *He pulls out some mariachis and starts playing them, producing sound waves powerful enougth to cut the rope ladder they were lowering down.* Ha ha! De PrawnCracker wins! *The baddies pull out some guns* Mios dios! Lower the hatch and deflector sheild! Hokay?

[Beauregard]

Watch out! *metal wire comes toppling out of the sky, hiting the van and causing it to swerve towards Beau and Mr Bassman*

Oh...dear...

[redBoobergurl]

Me can't fly so me head to First National Bank.

*walks into First National Bank*

Yoo-hoo? Mr. Bad Guys? Anyone here? What trouble was janitor man talking about? Oh well. Me stay here and keep watch out. No one gets past Captain Cookie!

[Fozzie Bear]

*Walks up to the First National Bank of Muptropolis, hears something in the air...*

What was THAT?!

*Suddenly realizes that it's the bad guys' helicopter, and throws hands over face.*

HELP! HELP!! SOMEONE CALL SOME SUPERHEROES!!

Oh, wait! I AM a super-hero! FANTASTIC FOZZIE TO THE RESCUE!

*Jumps in the air to fly, but keeps falling down.*
Oh yeah, not one of my powers.

*Stretches up the side of the bank and pulls himself up on the roof.*
NOW! I'll be ready for those bad guys.

Wait? Is that Beau down there?? The Prawn Cracker up there? The Red Streak over there?? Am I here ALONE?!

Mommy.

[sugarbritchez]

Never fear Bear Boy......Super Swine is here!

[Beauregard]

*as the truck swerves into Beau and Floyd*

Duster power! *grabs Floyd* Phew...we both went right through all that goldilocks.

Uh oh...the van has changed course and is heading to first natational, I better hurry myself over there...

*arrives panting*

Uh oh, I thought Prawn and Bear were here...looks like Janitor Supreme is on his own...I should get into disguise *turns into a mop and bucket*

[redBoobergurl]

*finds staircase that leads to roof and joins Fantastic Fozzie and Super Swine*

No worry Bear, Captain Cookie here too! Hi pig. Now where did helicopter go?

[Fozzie Bear]

The helicopter is up there! And look, down below! There's Janitor Supreme and Mr. Bassman there; and Prawn Cracker and The Red Streak in the air! We've got 'em from air, land, and right here on the roof of the bank. Let them get a little closer and I can do my "Rubber Chicken Stretch" to get on the helicopter and use my powers of "Terrible Jokes" to force them to land!!

[redBoobergurl]

Ok, me do my google eye staring power at the pilot to put him in trance then you climb up there bear.

*stares at helicopter pilot until it drives closer to the roof*

Look out everyone, hurry Fozzie!

[Fozzie Bear]

*SPROING! BONK!*

OW! The door is CLOSED on this thing!!

*Grabs onto Helicopter and holds on to it, then pulls his feet up and is now underneath the Helicopter.*

Any ideas??

[tutter_fan]

This sounds fun!

(DEFCON 1 Alarms sound in pinball man's mansion)

PM: OH NO! One of the banks in Mupatropolis is being robbed!

(goes into a closet, and comes out)

PM: PINBALL MAN TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!:)

[theprawncracker]

*Sees Fantastic Fozzie on the helicopter*

I have to help! Hokay? Look, de pilot's a lady! I can use my power to control the ladies to get her to land on de roof! Hokay?

*The PrawnCracker files The Prawn Mobile in front of the heliplanecopter*

Open hatch! Hokay?

*hatch opens*

Hola pretty lady! Look deeply into De PrawnCracker's eyes and then go land dis flying machine on dat roof. Hokay?

*The pilot pilots the heliplanecopter and lands it on the roof*

What a very useul power! I better go join de others though.

*Flies The Prawn Mobile and lands next to the heliplanecopter*

[Fozzie Bear]

*Fantastic Fozzie stretches himself all around the helicopter doors and blades so it cannot take off, and the people inside can't get out.*

Quick! Call 9-1-1! Call the Police!! Call an ambulance!! Call the Army!! Call my Mama and tell her I'll be late for dinner...

[Beauregard]

*looks up to see them all stuck inside the plane, and the super heros having things (mainly) under control*

We should get up there...too bad my liquid form won't evaporate and condencate upon the cloud and rain me back down on the celing....

[RedDragon]

*I walk out of the bakery across the street from the First National Bank of Muptropolis*

OOPS. I guess I'm a little late. Oh well, LUDO THE GREAT is here to help!
AAAAAAARRRRRUUUUUUGGGGG!

*Rocks come rolling down the street and form stairs up to the roof of the bank*

Come on Beau!

*Ludo runs up the stairs*

Need any help?

[The Count]

Meanwhile... Back in Gothic City, an offuscated suburb of Sesame Street...

Ah ha! Let me see just how many Muppet hero friends answered the call.
The Janitor Supreme, Fantastic Fozzie, Super Swine, Captain Cookie, The Red Streak, The Headliner, Overdog, The Prawn Cracker, Mr. Bassman...
And Pinball Man makes 10! Pinball Man? Hmmm, vonder who his real Muppet identity is.

*Senses the ceiling batty signal light up.
Oh, Vait a minute, I'm a Muppet hero too! That makes 11!

*The Count von Count rushes through the ****-evator downwards into his cave where he changes into his uniform. *Imagine a cape and cowl costume like Batman's, but with the main parts midnight black and the arm and leg joints a smoky gray.
*Sits down at batty-computer. Yes, I know who's behind this... Better fire up the Countmobile and get there on the double.

*The Countmobile, converted for battle conditions can be heard roaring out through the cave entrance en route to the scene of the heist.

*Sneaks around bank and comes out of the shadows.
Greetings, it is I! Who am I?
*To thug held tightly in grip over rooftop... I'm BattyMan!

[The Count]

*Looks to the newly-formed rock stairs. Oh, sorry Ludo, didn't know you vere there.
That's 12... 12 terrific Muppet heroes!
*Thunder and lightning instantly trigger in the skies above the bank.

[Erine81981]

InvoMonster comes to the resuce......

Fear not I InvoMonster is here to save any people that need...uh.......SAVING! *swops down and sntches a couple of kids out of not so harms way* Theres no need to thank me. Being that I can turn inviable. *lands on top of a sky scraper* There you go kids. Now run along and enjoy your day. *stands with cape waving in the breeze*

[The Count]

*OoC: Uh Kyle, is that supposed to be Grover?

*BIC: Vell, let's head back to Mupptropolis Central. Perhaps there'll be some news of our next mission from that scary... nice-sounding voice.
Then again, ve could always let my batty-computer find the next crime. Especially since I have it set to alert me whenever there's an MC update.

[RedDragon]

Shouldn't we wait for the cops to pick up the baddies?

[The Count]

Not really... The cops usually show up after ve leave the baddies tied-up for them.

[Erine81981]

I can do that. *runs around in circles and trips over a crack in the sidewalk*
Opps. You didn't see that. I was inviso.

Three hours later......

There we go. Finished. *brushes off dust from all the running around*

[Vibs]

(So... if it's 3 hours later, where are we right now? Sorry moi confused is.)

The Red Streak:
Me too!! Well, I'm gonna do my famous Triple Sideways Over Under Back Twist dive while waiting!! WhOOOohoO

*Dives into some water somewhere*

Oh! Sorry Beauregard I didn't realize that was you...

*Gets up from the water/Beauregard*

[Beauregard]

Ooh...

*turns back into self*

Weeeell, looks like we all did a good job with these peep's...maybe we could go to the Super-Cyber-Cafe to celerational.

*heads off towards Super-Cyber-Cafe, a small cafe in the town central*

[Vibs]

Allright, let's go to the Cyber-Super-Cafe!!

*Whoohoo's are heard from The Red Streak*

[Beauregard]

*frowns*

Is it really that exciting?

Inside is a bar for drinks, and a row of computers, as each super hero sits by the computer, an e-mail appears for them.

E-MAIL: Well Done. Bravo. Congratulations, and, Hmpf. How rude of you to be finished so fast. I supose I should let you take the rest of the evening off. Maybe I will. Maybe I won't. Drink up. Your ever lovely, Voice.

Uh oh...this is so terrable! I simply cannot decide, should I have ice in my coke, or have it straitghtened? I mean...um...straight up?

[Vibs]

Would you mind stop wembling around, have a radish in your coke!! BING!

...

Do they have radish cokes around here?!

[Beauregard]

*asks bar tender*

Do they have radish cokes around here?

No good...the bartender is a qenguin..all he'll say is Quack. So, um, what did you think about that electirc-mail?

[The Count]

*Pulls up outside cybercafe in Countmobile, and has it parked for him.

Hey Bo...Er, Janitor Supreme... Good job out there, so uh... Yeah drinks. They have lemon-lime sodas here?
*Sits down at computer near other heroes and starts chatting.

[Beauregard]

Hey there Mr Batty. I say, would it be at all posssible with your gadgets to trace that e-mail back to it's postman?

[The Count]

Hmmm... Don't think so. You need the computer that received the original E-mail in the first place. But come on... We're here at this cybercafe to relax. At least, what it is some of us might consider relaxing.
Just wait and I bet ve'll get another E-mail from that voice or vhatever it is.

*Internally: Hmmm, a message from that voice. Why, wouldn't it just speak to us? I'll have to trace this message back to its sender and find out vhat's going on with The Voice.

[Vibs]

*A flying sandal enters*

Sandal: HAs Anyone seen my shoes!??? ... wait, sandals don't wear shoes... Never mind!

*Leaves*

The Red Streak: ..um... That was a bit weird...!!

[Beauregard]

*frowns at sandel*

*frowns at Red Streak*

*frowns at Count*

*frowns at drink*

*whispers*

Red, I told you not to do that with your Exra Energy Power...*sips drink*...hey, I wonder if I turned into liquid if...

*interupted by a voice*

VOICE: Sorry, honey-bunches, but I decided I wouldn't leave you in peace and quiet. Sure, you did good, but that was just test one. Before I give you clue one to secret one, you must do the next thing. A villian known only as "X and Bacon" has taken a powerfull tool known as the "Atomic Diamond Device" from the museam of antiquities. You gotta go get it. Oh...and I sugest you start looking soon. No one (except me, aha ahahahah!) know who he is or why he needs that thing...good luck!

[Vibs]

Then why don't you just tell us Mr. Voice?!!

*Red gets the "Why are you dumb or something? HE IS A VOICE he's supposed to be like that!" eyes from everybody*

... WhaT!??

[theprawncracker]

No! Not X and Bacon! Hokay? Well, I geuss we better head to the Museum of Antiquities. Maybe we'll find some ladies. To The Prawn Mobile! Hokay?

*Dashes off to The Prawn Mobile*

Well come on what are jew waiting for? Well I'm leaving. Hokay? Jew will have to catch up to me.

[Vibs]

I'll come with you, little strange talking radish!!!! I never liked sitting still anyway...

*Bunches begin flickering and there she goes*

[Beauregard]

Hey, wait up!

*follows the others*

[The Count]

Hmmm... X and Bacon? Vell, I'll just head on back to my batty cave and punch a couple of things into my batty-computer.
*Hops into Countmobile. I'll call you guys if/vhen I find out anything about this willian.

[Erine81981]

Wait up for us. *turns invisable and walks into the door of the cafe* Ouch. that hurt. Why can't I seem to keep myself from harms way? Oh well. *runs out the door*

[The Count]

*Revs up Countmobile's engines.

Come on InwoMonster... I'll give you a ride. Just let me know vhen you're all buckled up in your seat please.

[Fozzie Bear]

To the Museum of Antiquities!!

*Stops*

Um--anybody know where that is??

[Beauregard]

Er...I did have a map, but I think it got wet when wet myself...I mean, did the liquid thing...

[redBoobergurl]

Me need a ride too! Wait for me!

*runs to Countmobile and jumps in*

Wonder why guy needs powerful tool? Oh well, we find out when we get there. Let's go!

[Fozzie Bear]

Hmmm...well, we could always just wait for the police to drive by and follow them. Of course, then we aren't so super, are we? HEY! Battyman, can you fly up and see which direction we need to go in to reach the Museum?

[Beauregard]

Erm...The Red Streak alredy went up there, but I think she's gone somewhere...knowing her...

Where don't we just ask someone for directions? I know, I'll ask the bar-tender...ex-cuse me...oh, quack, yeah, i know...

[Fozzie Bear]

Maybe if you talk to him in "Quackanese?" Then, you'll understand each other.

[Beauregard]

Erm...good idea. After all I havea special relationship with the...erm...penguins...I mean...

Quacker, quack, quack-quack?

They say, Quack. Which means, the Museam of Antiquities is *ponts*in that direction, they think. At least, I think that's what they said.

VOICE: Yes, it is in that direction, now hurry up I'm getting bored watching you faff around.

WHy didn't you just say so?

VOICE: Because...

[Erine81981]

*Revs up Countmobile's engines.

Come on InwoMonster... I'll give you a ride. Just let me know vhen you're all buckled up in your seat please.

Ok. All buckled up. Ready to go. Oh wait for Captain Cookie. Come on Cookie. We'll be late.

[redBoobergurl]

Ok. All buckled up. Ready to go. Oh wait for Captain Cookie. Come on Cookie. We'll be late.
Me here! Let's go fast Batty Man!

[The Count]

That's 3, 3 passengers in my cool counting car!
*Lifts hand with three fingers raised high while turning the wheel and taking off.

You know, I would be able to fly... But it'd be due to the gizmos in my costume to give me batlike flight and not cause of any super powers I might have.
But enough of that... Seems like the gang's going to the museum. We'll head them off at the pass and get there under the cover of some scary shadows.
*Drives into blackness ahead and emerges out in museum parking lot.
OK guys, ve're here. Let's get that bad bad man.

*Hmmm, vill have to remember to go back to the batty-cave later and check up on this X and Bacon. See if I get any leads on his identity.
Then again, it might just be Pinball Man. BTW: What Muppet was he supposed to be anyvay?

[RedDragon]

(Man you people are up early, I'm missing everything)

*Ludo walks out of bathroom*

Huh? Did I miss something? I heard something about a museum. Hey! Where did everybody go?

*Thinks of the Battyman and Ludo disappears in a puff of smoke. And appears next to the Countmobile*

There you are. Hmmmm, the Museum of Antiquities. OK.

[The Count]

Oh hello Ludo. Yes ve're here to stop a willaneous robbery. Seems someone vants to steal an ADD gadget, the Atomic Diamond Device. Vhat they vant it for, ve don't know but ve have to stop them from stealing the ADD machine.

Oh, be careful vhere you step... InwisoMonster turned himself... vell, inwisible.
Maybe ve can train him to leave a portion of his blue fur shaded slightly out of focus while the rest of him is inwisible. That vay ve could at least spot him before bumping into him vithout knowing it.
*Talks to bat-communicator on wrist.

Come in Captain Cookie, are you in position?

[MrsPepper]

So, our villian's name is X and Bacon? This should be Egg-citing. Ahee, hee, hee.

**Stops laughing for a moment to look around**

Hey uh, wait there guys, I'll need to hitch a ride with someone...

[redBoobergurl]

Oh hello Ludo. Yes ve're here to stop a willaneous robbery. Seems someone vants to steal an ADD gadget, the Atomic Diamond Device. Vhat they vant it for, ve don't know but ve have to stop them from stealing the ADD machine.

Oh, be careful vhere you step... InwisoMonster turned himself... vell, inwisible.
Maybe ve can train him to leave a portion of his blue fur shaded slightly out of focus while the rest of him is inwisible. That vay ve could at least spot him before bumping into him vithout knowing it.
*Talks to bat-communicator on wrist.

Come in Captain Cookie, are you in position?
Roger that! Me in position and ready to go. Lets go get bad guys. Catch them red handed.

[theprawncracker]

*Arives at Museum of Antiquities*

I don't see any bacon here! I better go back to de cafe and see if I can give anyone a ride. Hokay?

*Drives back to the cafe*

Hola Mr. BassMan. Do jew need a ride?

*Arives at Museum of Antiquities*

I don't see any bacon here! I better go back to de cafe and see if I can give anyone a ride. Hokay?

*Drives back to the cafe*

Hola Mr. BassMan. Do jew need a ride?

Well, yes I do. Thanks, man. I was getting tired of hitch-hiking. Maybe I should get a bus...

So, let's go catch that breakfast!

[Beauregard]

*forms into Road Runner*

....Meep! Meep!....

*forms into Beau*

Well, here I am. Invisbamonstrosoty, why don't you and I sneak it and take a peek. I'll go through the wall with you if I hold you you can slip through like dust slips outta the duster, and then we can see what's happening and get out a'gain. Yeah?

ANyone else wanna come in through the wall wid' me?

[RedDragon]

I'll come. If I'll fit. It's better then staying out here.

[Harvey Towers]

Catch them red handed.

What colour are there hands now?

In other news the Muppetropalis Superheroes made there way to Museum of Antiquities only to find that they had been beaten to it by an hole in the wall gang...

*A hole appears in the wall*

Convenient. More details on MuppetNews.com...

[Beauregard]

*grabs Ludo and InvisiMonster and melds through the wall*

Uh oh...

Too late...glass is broken, and the Device is missing...however, a biker's glove, a penguin 2-pack action figure, and a sock have been disgarded as accidently left evidence...each left beside the case that used to hosue the device.

Oh boy...

[RedDragon]

I guess we're looking for a biker with one glove, one sock, and who likes penguins.

[The Count]

What? Vell, only 1 thing 2 do now.

*Whips out utensils and handles each piece of evidence with care, locking them in a protective case in the Countmobile.
I'm off to the cave to have these analyzed and see if they turn up some clues. I have a hunch as to who it could've been, but I need to confirm this vith my batty-computer.
Anyone wanna come with?

*Opens door to car so whoever's coming can get in. LMK when you're all in and buckled up. Then ve'll drive back to the cave like a bat out of ****!

[RedDragon]

I'll come!......Alright I'm all bunkled in. Let's go!

[Beauregard]

Wait up...erm...no one waits for anybody in this town...

[redBoobergurl]

Me go with Batty again. Wait for Captain Cookie! *runs to Countmobile and straps himself in* We looking for biker man now?

[MrsPepper]

Wait up...erm...no one waits for anybody in this town...

Ha, you're telling me, and I had just got here! And I wonder where this biker bacon guy could be... maybe at a diner getting brunch? Ahee hee...

[The Count]

Not a bad suggestion. *Talking to Mr. Bassman in back seat. And you know I vaited till ewerybody was on board here in the car.
Bo, you OK back there? *Knows Captain Cookie, Janitor Supreme, Ludo the Great and InvisoMonster are all in back seat with Mr. Bassman.

Looks like eweryone else vill have to meet us back at the Bat Manor.

Hmmm, you think...
*Turns to Super Swine and asks. Vas Mr. Bassman's a good suggestion? Ve'll check it out while inspecting those Penguin figures ve took from the robbery. Ve'll crack this X and Bacon's eggshell yet.

[Erine81981]

*inviso's himself back* Sorry. I seem to get carried away with my inviso. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha......Hmmmmm one glove? A pequin? And two action figures?
He's a man with a missing glove. So he must be getting cold hand? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha......

I know he works at North Pole. Thats where pengins live. The two action figures are made at the North Pole. Thats it. I know who it is. Its Santa Claus!

*gets a weird look from everyone expect for Captain Cookie* What? It could happen.

[Beauregard]

Whoever he be he has the Atomic Diamond Devise...

...I think BattyMan is ri-ght, let's go back to Bat-Manure and pick up the trails from there...

[The Count]

*Back at the manor... Trying to make a joke again Bo? Vell, it's OK.
Come on, my butler Carter's already vaiting for us.
*All go upstairs and start talking about the day's activities in heroics... And some of their lives as friends usually do.

Hmmm, don't think it vas Santa InwisoMonster. No, these figures are Made in China by a company ve all respect wery much. But this willain's name... X and Bacon... Hmmm, I have a few hunches. Vill have to add them up in my computer downstairs.

Uh, anyone vant anything to drink?

*Carter stands ready to tend to the heroes.
*OoC: BTW: Carter's the butler from the Howard Tubman sketches frrom Muppets Tonight.

[Vibs]

*A loud CRASH is heard and Red crashes through the big window that used to be the castle's pride but now it's just a big mess and a lot of broken glass*

*Everybody stares at the mess, then at Red*

Red: *Gets up from the floor* Don't worry I'm okay!! *Looks at window* What a waste of glass, but then again building a castle with a tall window on a hill in the middle of a wood is pretty dumb!!
ANyway, guess what all?? The villians didn't steal the eiffeltower, Akropolis, The Opera House, The little mermaid, The pyramids, Buckingham Palace, Hollywood or The Ice Cap!!

... What have you been up to? Having cocktails....??!

[The Count]

*Carter starts cleaning away the glass, and admonishing The Red Streak at the same time. *Carter says that the castle is perfectly located, this has been the Von Count family home for many generations.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the batty-cave...

[Vibs]

It wasn't MY fault that the window was right there!! Suddenly it just appeared, I told it to move but it just stood there looking silly!! - I could as well have been talking to a wall!! - Really...

*Rushes down in the Battycave to the others*

[The Count]

Hmmm, the tests on the Penguin action figures have come back. Let me see.
*Types information on computer.

The letter X is the 24th letter in the alphabet. And the name "X and Bacon" suggests it's a play on vords of the popular breakfast combination of eggs and bacon. Vait! Eggs come 12 to ewery carton in dozens. and 24 divided by 2 is 12. And the number 12 was bought by Ernie vhen he vas trying to make breakfast for him and Bert that one time. If I remember correctly, he bought that number 12 from...
Of course! I know who X and Bacon is. It makes sense. That's why he had the Penguin action figures, seeing as how he himself is a peddler of ill-gotten merchandise. Yes, ill-gotten because those Penguins aren't on sale until this veekend at the San Diego ComicCon. And the only other vay he could've gotten them vould be by stealing them from the OMGCNFO varehouses.

*Runs upstairs to tell others the villain's secret identity.

[The Count]

*Meets up with The Red Streak as they're both either coming or going to the cave downstairs. Yes, come on, I have news about our willainous foe. Ve have to tell the others quickly. After that, ve can follow up on this lead and find the hideout or the plans this rascal has for the ADD machine.

[Fozzie Bear]

If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!!

*Waited to say that one!*

Okay, tell us what? What do you know about the willain? Um, villain??

[Beauregard]

*sipping martinnies*

Well..this super hero life does have some benefits...

...still...we really should be getting after that ADD device...hmmm, adding? Anyway, I'm going to call up my penguin friends...*dials* Do you know anything about...oh, sorry...Qwack, quack, qwark?...Weird, that penguin was speaking frenchy...

They say they havn't sold their figures to anyone. So whoever did it, is working the black market trading. A trator...trador? Weird...*wondrs off talking to self*

[Fozzie Bear]

Ah! The villain is a SCALPER! Buys rare action figures and sells them at higher prices!!

So, if we can figure the glove and the sock and...*GASP!* It's SHARI LEWIS?!?!

[Beauregard]

*frowns*

No..I think we should figure the X into this thing...X marks the treasure map, X is a kiss, X ends the wordy fox, X....ray? His name is Ray?? No..um...

[Fozzie Bear]

The diamond is probably being used as a laser splitting device for some atomic x-ray beam. The glove and sock are probably all parts of some clothing the villian was usuing as a means to insulate his or her hands from heat.

*Thinks for a second*
Nah, that'd be too smart!

[Vibs]

X = Extra!

X = E = Energy = ....

I'll use my Extra Energy Power!!!!

[Beauregard]

Weeeell, let's see what the Count has up his sleeve, of, it's just a handkercheif.

Streaky, stop that Extra Energy Power! Put that Map down!

*snatches Map from air*

How do you fold these things...oh, look, a breakfast cafe signal, i mean, sign. And, guys, look, "Eggs'n'Backon 'R' Us"

Wha twerable gramm...

[redBoobergurl]

We should go to Eggs place. Even if we find no X and Bacon man, we can eat food! Maybe they have chocolate chippy egss.

[The Count]

And a glass oof cookie juice? Vell, here's vhat I know so far. This business with the glove is leading you avay from the crook's identity. To my recollection, there was no glove recovered from the crime scene. Just a biker's helmet, an odd sock and the Penguin action figures. After putting 2 and 2 together, I've deduced the willain's identity to be no other than Lefty the Salesman. He's been peddling his vares on the streets of Sesame Street for years now, praeying on the unsuspecting public's inwisible cash along vith a lucrative black market career. But now he's steppin up to the big stage. The helmet vas left behind cause he didn't need it, though he's still on his motorcycle en route to the San Diego Comic Con. He plans to stupify eweryone there with his ADD laser machine, then stuff all the Penguin figures into his remaining socks to sell on the black market. Ve must stop him before he gets there... And decides to clean up the Super Grover figures too!

So, vhat's our plan Bo? Are ve gonna rush to the convention to put a stop to this daring plan before the conwention opens this veekend?

[Beauregard]

I say that if he's got Pengins he ain't gunna sell then at that convention, but in Muptropplis...but...more important he has the ADD...Wait! Left isn't right! Yet the clues lead us to...Lefty X and Bacon....Lex? Maybe...I figure, what if Lefty the Saleperson and Lex Luthor have combinnified their forces?

I figure we should get to the eggs place...

[sugarbritchez]

I think that some of ya'll have gone nutty here! Moi does not want to go to some comic book convention that will be full of half baked comic geeks that think they are characters. Plus how will we know that the one we are after isn't in a even stranger disguise?

[Beauregard]

Agreed Piggy...er...Swine?

Moi...or is it me...um...forget it...

[The Count]

Yes, you're fright Piggy. Who vould vant to go to a silly conwention like that anyvay? Especially vhen there'll be such big names in stardom like Angelina and Jessica and Johnny? No, let's skip it.

*Turns around to talk to Bo and Floyd secretly... Now vatch, she'll say ve have to go there cause the world shouldn't be denied of a star of her stature.
*Chuckling.

[Beauregard]

So...are we going to the Bacon place? Lex Luthor's manion? Or the convention? Guys? Or what?

[sugarbritchez]

Hee Hee Hee.......well you never said there would be Stars there....I haven't seen Jessica and quite some time. I wonder if my agent will be there too? He hasn't returned any of my calls!

[The Count]

Who knows... It is California after all, so agents and stars vill be a plenty there making deals and shmoozing vith their adoring fans.

*Hee, this'll turn out vonderfully.

Bo... I doubt that Lex Luthor vould mess his hands vith a petty crook like Lefty. No, this his solo criminal plan to crack the yolk and bust into the big times of super villainry.
Besides... Shouldn't that be President Kermit Luthor?

[Beauregard]

(ooc, Count, this is Muptropoils, Lex Luthor does exist, but California and the Comic Convention...not so much. Can we please keep in Muptropolis? Besides, if he stole the penguins, he won't go there, he'll get caught.)

VOICE: You are all dancing around the issues, fun as this is to watch, you might need the speed. Get going, whereever ye are going!

Oh, that wasn't nicey, nicey.

[The Count]

*OOC: Sorry bout that Bo. Didn't know we were to stay within the exclusive boundaries of Mupptropolis's city limits. But was trying to play along with what I know and have seen of the various DC-based animated series on WB and Cartoon Network. And California and the rest of the real world does exist to them... They just incorporate it into their own story as the case may be. But OK, let's keep it in Muppetropolis then. So, would Lex Luthor still be a viable character for this? Or would he be President of the US by now? And would it be Lex or a Muppet playing the role of Lex, like Kermit as Kermit Luthor?
Sorry to raise so many questions Bo. Just going with what I know from my viewing habits and my best friend who's a comic book expert or at least has much more knowledge than I do on the subject.
Hope this pardon works.

[Vibs]

Oops... Ignore this post.

:cry: - *sniff* the post is being ignored *sniff*

[Vibs]

VOICE: You are all dancing around the issues, fun as this is to watch, you might need the speed. Get going, whereever ye are going!


Oh yeah we might need to speed?? Well hope you are enjoying sitting there, whereeever you are sitting, commenting on everything we do!! But you know what Mr. Clever-All-knowing-Voice?? You should speed up and tell us exactly where to go so we can get going!!!

[MrsPepper]

Well, we might as well go to that diner, even bootleggers need to eat sometimes... and I wouldn't mind something myself!

[RedDragon]

Right, let's go!

*I grab Mr.Bassman and Janitor S. I think of the egg diner and we disappear in a puff of smoke. Then we reappear outside the diner*

Ah, here we are. Let's go in.

*I walk inside*

[Vibs]

!!??
Now where did they go?? Well, I'm just gonna follow! Everybody!! Grip my tail and I'll fly us all to the Egg place!

*Everybody grips Red's tail, Red's bunches begin flickering and there they g... *CRASH* ... went.*

... well walking is nice too!!

[Fozzie Bear]

*Stretches across the area and grabs the Red Streak's tail.*

Let 'er rip, sister! We got a criminal to capture.

Eggs n Bacon, here we come!

[Beauregard]

(ooc: Sorry, for the confusion Count. When the Muppets entered the world, they did not replace the characters there were there. Back to story...)

Cool. Shall we go in? Er, a table for one, wait, three, um, here comes streaker and stuff, make it...erm...more than that...Penguin Waiter, can we get some eggs from your all-day breakfast?

[RedDragon]

Excuse me, waiter, is there anyone here who goes by the name X and Bacon, by chance. We would like to speak with this person, if we could.

[theprawncracker]

Dios mios. Where are we supposed to find dis bacon person? Oh well. Hola Mr. Waiter, De PrawnCracker would like to order a glass of orange juice. Hokay? And egg and bacon sandwich. Hokay?

[redBoobergurl]

You make pancakes here? Me want chocolate chip pancakes. Almost as good as chocolate chip cookies. Me wonder if X and Bacon man here somewhere. Me use google eye power to scan room for anyone suspicous. *looks around room* Me no see anything too weird besides bunch of superheros. Oh well, me eat instead!

[The Count]

*Skulking in the shadows of the back alley behind the diner. OK, this'll be a perfect place to...
*Spots X and Bacon leaving diner. Hmmm, vhat to do...

*Throws bat-boomerang, slicing motorcycle's tires. There, that should do it. Now he'll have to go back inside for help. And the others vill be there to catch him.

[Beauregard]

Did you hear that? Sounded like tires bustifying, per'aps we better get out th-ere. Or we could just finish our sandwhiches they go out there...or we could...


Suddenly, a door smashes open, and a raggletaggle looking man with wild hair, and appearence looking like a cross between Lefty the Salesman and Lex the Luthor bursts into the room, leaps over the Super-Heros table, and dashes out the front door.

That was cuerious...

[theprawncracker]

What are jew waiting for? We have to go after him! Hokay?

*Dashes after him.*

I'll stop him with my mariachis. Hokay?

*Pulls out mariachis and sends sound waves breaking down the wall giving the bad guy a way to escape*

Dios mios... Come on let's go after him. Hokay?

[sugarbritchez]

BACON?????????????

What's the big idea?

[Beauregard]

Sorry about that Piggy...erm...lets go shall we...*runs over the table, but trips, accidently turning into liquid form and splashing all over the floor, slipping over up*

[sugarbritchez]

Rolls eyes......
Good Grief

[redBoobergurl]

This look like job for Captain Cookie and super hero friends. Let's go after him! *gets up from table and runs out the door* Yoo-hoo, bad guys!

[MrsPepper]

Whoa, come on people, let's move it!
**He jumps up suddenly and manoveurs around the tables and chairs to dash out the door, and see Lefty/Lex running down the street. He begins to run as fast as he can to try and catch up, and while he is doing so, he beings to sing, in an attempt to use his Lullaby Powers and put him to sleep**

Hey man, don't run away no more
You just got up and dashed right through the door
But we really... **gasps for air, and continues** want you to stay
So we can catch you and lock you away!!

Urgh... **Mr. Bassman finally slows down, the singing while dashing so fast had left him breathless.**
Can anyone tell if he fell asleep? If I was loud enough, that should have worked!

[The Count]

Quick! Cookie, he vent down this sidwalk into the alleys. We've got to catch him before he gets avay!

[RedDragon]

I'll get him!

*I think of what I saw of X and bacon then disappear in a puff of smoke. And reappear next to his slumbering form*

I think you got him Mr.Bassman. He is sleeping like a baby, sucking his thumb and all.

*I quickly hog tie him and search his pockets for the ADD*

I have the device.

*I disappear and reappear a few moment later*

It is back where it belongs. Another job well done for the super-heros.

[Erine81981]

Quick! Cookie, he vent down this sidwalk into the alleys. We've got to catch him before he gets avay!

*bumps into Battymand and Captain Cookie* Hi guys. *turns off his inviso* There you can see me. Have we found Santey yet?

[Beauregard]

VOICE: Well done...however, one small thought, you darlings left the poor thumb sucker alone, and...well...he disapeared. I do hope you can find out why he needed that ADD...before he strickes again...

Do you think she means that?

[tutter_fan]

Hey, do any of the super-muppets have a scanner I can use to find the location of some robberies? :zany:

[theprawncracker]

Oy! He's gone again. Hokay? Now what do we do? Well Mr. Monster no one can see, why don't jew and I go looking for him? Climb on into de Prawn Mobile! Hokay?

[Erine81981]

Oy! He's gone again. Hokay? Now what do we do? Well Mr. Monster no one can see, why don't jew and I go looking for him? Climb on into de Prawn Mobile! Hokay?

Who said that?

[theprawncracker]

Who said that?
Dat scary voice said it right here. Hokay?

Well done...however, one small thought, you darlings left the poor thumb sucker alone, and...well...he disapeared. I do hope you can find out why he needed that ADD...before he strickes again...

[The Count]

Vell... *Smarting after the small bump-in with Grover. Let's take this baby back to the cave and see if we can find out vhat he vanted to use it for.
You know... It'd help if that woice vere to give us some clues as to the crook's purposes. Oh vell... That's vhat they're paying us for.

[Erine81981]

Dat scary voice said it right here. Hokay?

Hey there little bitty shrimp. Your so cute. Me and you could be brothers being that were cute. *pats Pepe on the head*

[Beauregard]

So the gang packed up...wait...there was nothing to pack...so the group didn't pack up, but headed to the bat cave with Batty Boy, stopping only to grab the ADD from the museam so they could study it for clues as to it's existence. The telephone rang almost the moment they entered the cave...

Man on Telephone: Yes, it is Chief Gordan. Yes, I'm sorry to say it, but, those men you caught, they escaped and took all the gold. Sorry, and...Oh! I think I hear my beeper. Gotta fly.

VOICE: What a tangled web we weave, when at first we do decive...

Sheesh, what was th-at all about?

[Vibs]

I got it!! Something about Chief and eggs and bacon!! This whole thing is about food!! I'm so good at this!!

[Beauregard]

Chief, Streaky, not Chef...or is it Chef, not Cheif...Sheave? Erm...

[redBoobergurl]

All right, you guys look at ADD thingy. Me will be on watch for any bad guys near bat cave. Me will be on watch all week wherever we go (ooc: because I will be out of town, just have Cookie be the watchman or something..)

[The Count]

*OOC: OK Beth.

Come on Cookie... Carter vill get you a fresh batch of mint chocolate chip cookies with milk.

*Leaves ADD machine hooked up to computer for tests.
Vhat? Chief Gordon called? Vell, let me think... He probably got his numbers mixed-up.
*Sends bat-bots to corral gold thieves. I'll be upstairs relaxing with Cookie. *Both slip into a change of clothes and adjourn to the study for snacks.
You're inwited to come upstairs if you vant. Or... I guess you could track down the guys who took the gold.
Up to you.

[Beauregard]

Well, that Gordan...hey, name sounds familiar...he said that those Fives we caught back at the bank scarperated. And managed to get the gold...so, if that connectified, I mean, both were warned by MAdam VOice. Why does someone need Gold and the ADD.

What was it you said before that the ADD could be used for Batty?

[The Count]

Vell... This ADD device could be used for a great many number of things. Could count the vays. But, it could be used to stupify a person's mind. You don't suppose Lefty vas going to use it to rob the bank's gold deposits? He rully vouldn't need to, seeing as how the gold deposit vas hit rather easily in the Shirley Bassey episode. Though if you vant to make sure, you could just use the phone there to call Bruno the Guard and check that the gold's still there.

Oh, the gold's been stolen? Vell, hopefully my bat-bots vill have captured the criminals by now.

[Beauregard]

(Count, there is no shirly bassey episode, all memories of the Muppets are errased, but, funny additon)

Ri-ght. Look, it seems all our efforts are being thowed...but, why? Either we have a traitor, oir the voice person is warning pepoles, or, else...they are as good as us. Who could possibly be as good as super heros???

Meanwhile, in a secret garden somewhere in New Jersey...wait, that's another stroy...Meanwhile, in a secret base. A black capped figure leaps down to the tiled floor. "Good," he says. "We have one part of our creation, and our assitent came out unharmed..."

"Agreed," another man says, stepping out of the shadows. "Although I never thought I'd ask Luthor for help."

"But Lefty Luthor...I thought his name was Lex...but Luthor was the one who could easily work parts of our plan."

"We still need to get the ADD," said a leather-clad woman. "And now we move on!"

Back at the bat-mansion...

Shall we move on? Maybe we could...erm...well, maybe they'll strike again?

[The Count]

Oops, sorry. Yes, let's move on.

Hmmm... Seems my computer's acting up again. Guess I shouldn't have hooked up that ADD device. Vell, let's disconnect it and examine it.
*Places call with Dr. Honeydew to come repair computer later this afternoon.

OK, let's see vhat this machine has... Oh my... Look at that...
*The diamond core reflects a rainbow map. Hmmm, maybe by following this map ve'll get to the bottom of the crime spree.

[Beauregard]

Rainbow...hmmm....

Er, sorry. Um, let's take a look at that mappy-gadget-thingy-mag-ig. Can you get it sprayed on the wall?

[The Count]

*Presses button and projector screen descends covering one wall in the room.
OK, just move it this vay...

*Diamond core reflects rainbow-colored map onto blank screen.

Hmmm, looks like Lefty marked this spot here with a big X. Vonder if that's there hideout. And then... this other spot marked with a big Y... That could be their next target.
So, Bo... Should ve split up into two groups then?

[Beauregard]

Well, let's see...under the big X it says, "Comic Wearhouse" under the Y it says, "Scientists 'R' Us"...Hmm...lots of 'R'us's in this business...well, yup, let's split up. Group one head to the wearhouse, the other group head to the Rus...

[theprawncracker]

Well, since I am de most handsome on here, I will lead group uno to de warehouses. Hokay? So, who es coming with me?

[The Count]

Vell... Since I have a meeting vith Dr. Honeydew... Think I'll head group 2 over to the scientist's labs/computer store.
So... Who's coming with us?

[Beauregard]

I'll join the BattyMan heading to the wearhouse. Erm...shall we take your car Batty?

[theprawncracker]

Hokay fine! I won't lead de group since no one wants to go with me. I'll just go on lookout with de hungry blue monster. Hokay?

[MrsPepper]

Sorry, prawncracker. I'll come with you to this wearhouse. We'll see what we can uncover. Plus, I need your ride to get anywhere... **grins, then sligs his base over his shoulder** Come on, let's get cracking, cracker.

[Princeton]

On their way to the warehouse, Mr. Bassman and Pepe Kingprawn met up with Zippity Zoot.

:cool: : Hey, what's going down, man... uh... men?

[Beauregard]

*arriveing at the wearhouse....group 1 finds a snazy building with smart vehicles parked around it*

We should go in...maybe...maybe we should stay out...

[The Count]

Vell, see you later Bo. Heading off to meet Bunsen and Beaker at the Scientists R'Us. Got to have my computer checked up.
Just use this if you need me. *Hands Bo a small bat-signal light.
Or you could just call me at my skell phone number.
Hope you don't get into too much trouble.

*Leaves with Captain Cookie seated in the back seat and probably InvisoMonster there too, though I'm not sure of that one.

[Beauregard]

*uses Duster power to move through the wall of the wearhouse*

Oh my...

Yes, that is right, since he is related to the narrator, he must have known there was something going down here...but anyway, that aside, this is what he saw...

Wonder-Woman stalked back and forth like a caged tigar. Batman laid a hand on her arm to calm her, and got it firmly slapped. "It's no good," Catwoman said, cracking a whip. "If they won't leave...we'll leave."

"We?" Superman said.

"Yes, the fact is, when they...got here, we were all roughly shoved aside to make room for them," Wonder Woman said, pouting.

"Yes," Batman added. "So I made a deal with Lex Luthor...or, Lefty as he suddenly wanted to be called, and he'll help us to create a gadget that will reverse the effect and let us out of this world...into reality."

*frowns, not getting any of this*

"And," Catwoman added. "That will leave them here to blissfully stay alone by themselves. Here. Never to escape."

"Yup." Together they sniggered evily.

*gulps*

I'm not sure what that was all about...but...it was about something...I gotta get the others.

[redBoobergurl]

Me here Janitor Man! Prawn guy is on lookout now and Captain Cookie will help you in this wearhouse. What we do next?

[Beauregard]

*bumps into Cookie*

OOps, excuse me...I think those gus think they are us...or..um..something, and we need to try and stop them before they do somethng tricky...

[Beauregard]

(ooc, this game dosn't seem to be working so well, so, I'll give us some more directions, ok?

Basic story: The Mupepts have found themselves in the comic boks, they must get through a series of tests set by "voice" who will then let them out. but if the super-heros themselves get out before hand, there will be no room in the real world, and the Muppets will be left in Muptropilis forever.

First: We must capture the super-heros in the werhouse long enough to questian them
Second: We must complete the tasks set by Voice
Third: Just have a good time. If you want to do some fun stuff wiht a chracter, go ahead and do it.
Fouth: That is all.)

So, um, should we go in and try to upperhand these people?

[redBoobergurl]

Where everyone go? Me no can fight these bad guys alone! Yoo-hoo! Super hero friends! Captain Cookie needs help!

[Beauregard]

The Janitor Supreme is by your side...is it left or right? Erm...but he is here.

[redBoobergurl]

Ok Janitor Man. Let's go into warehouse and get these bad guys. Other super hero friends will just have to catch up. Me not know where they went.

Where everyone go? Me no can fight these bad guys alone! Yoo-hoo! Super hero friends! Captain Cookie needs help!

Don't worry I was beside you the whole time. I was just in ivisable. Ha ha ha ha..sorry. Coming along!

[Beauregard]

O-key. Well, I could go in through de walls again, buty how will you two come inside?

General picture: Large wearhouse, a lader is leant against the wall. There is a lcoekd door. There are no windows. But a skylight in the roof.

[redBoobergurl]

Locked door? No problem! *flames shoot from his furry hands to the lock (cooking power) causing it to melt away to nothing* There, lock all gone. Me and Invisible Monster can go through door.

[Erine81981]

Sounds good to me. *turns inviable* Sorry when I get nervous I turn inviable. Now to find those creeps.

[MrsPepper]

**Walks though the door, now that the lock has melted off**

Hey uh, thanks you guys. I was just off, tuning. Now where to go?

**Mr. Bassman takes a look around at the scenery. He sees there is an upper level, and this level is dark and filled with crates and boxes.**

Shall we do this the quick and loud way, or the slow way? **He plugs his bass into his portable amp, and gets a pick form his pocket** I can blow these boxes away, just say boo.

[Beauregard]

*sneezes, which sound like: Ar...Boo!*

Excuse me..

[MrsPepper]

Right on. Let's do this!

**He turns the volume up on his amplifier as far as it will go, and a slight ringing can be heard. He readies his pick over the e string.**

Brace yourselves, ladies and gents!

**His hand comes down, hitting the e string with a fair amount of force, while the amplifier took care of the rest. The volume was too much for the boxes to handle. They broke apart and blew across the room to hit the opposite wall and crumble into dust, revealing nothing on this floor of the warehouse. Mr. Bassman winced at the volume, and turned down the volume to a normal level, but then proceeded to play a sweet bass riff, just for fun.**

Ha, that never gets old. Well uh, I guess we better check upstairs for what we're looking for. What are we looking for? Not boxes anymore. Ahee, hee.

[Erine81981]

[Beauregard]

Narator: Yes, Wonder Woman has been left to take you men down. Do your stuff!

[Vibs]

[Beauregard]

(Sorry, I'm not being avery good host here...)

Ok-ey.

*inserts Video*

Video: ...t's time to light the lights, it's time to put on make up with the muppet show tonight...

[redBoobergurl]

Hey! That old show of Kermit's! It on DVD now! Does it mean we go to Muppet Theater? Is problem there?

[Erine81981]

Ohhh thats froggy babieeee!

[Beauregard]

HEy, I used to clean there...

Wait!!!

Guys? We are super heros, not tv actors? What's going on here? How'd tey...why do we remeber beign there?

[redBoobergurl]

Maybe it because there's problem there and we have to go save the day! Maybe another super hero like Wonder Woman has taken over!

[Beauregard]

Over where? There is no such thing as the Muppet Theatre. I am not a janitor, there. We never performed there. We are super heros, we have memories of a life here...don't we?

[redBoobergurl]

Ok! Then what does video mean? Captain Cookie ready to fight crime wherever it is. Me thought video was some sort of clue.

[Erine81981]

Froggggggyyyy babieeeeeeeee.......*hugging the tv* :cry:

[Beauregard]

I think the video be a clue, but, of what? Can are identities be false? Are there supressed memories?

Batman: There you are! *whirls batblades* You guys are in Big Troubel. How dare you spy on our outside source! Hahaha! *slices batblade through the air and Janitor Supreme*

Batman: Er....maybe we shoudl talk about swappignnames one day.
