I (lilmnm2003) woke up one morning wondering about 'Jelly
World'. Is there really such a land? Or is it some kind of rumor or joke from
NeoPets? It had me bewildered ever since yesterday, when lilcandysweet2003 and
lildiscoflower2003 were telling their younger brother, lilbabybloop2003, about
"Jelly" Land.
"Yeah, Bloop, it's all made out of jelly!" Candy,
my Christmas Acara, yelped.
"Weally?" asked Bloop, my blue Blumaroo, almost
dazedly.
"Really, really!" DiscoFlower, my Disco Kacheek,
had replied.
"Stop telling your little brother such rubbish,"
I said just getting back from the Bazaar with a bag full of food.
"It's not rubbish Mother!" Candy reassured.
I ignored her remark.
"Mmmm.... watcha get me Mommy?" Bloop said digging
threw the bag.
"Bloop, I got you some Chocolate Flakes. Candy,
I know you've became a only-health-food-vegitarian so I got you some Green Apples."
"Organic? I don't want that fake pesticide stuff,"
said Candy.
"Yes, Candy. Oh- and DiscoFlower, I got you
some Chocolate Chip Cookies. But," I said eyeing them all with the hunger in
their eyes, "not 'til after dinner."
There was a murmur of "Aw Mom!", "Pwease just
a lil!", and "Mother!"
"Not 'til after dinner," I repeated sternly.
After dinner, I decided to go exploring for
some explanations of 'Jelly World'. I left after saying to my oldest child,
"Candy, watch your brother and sister. I'll be back in about an hour. And yes
Bloop, y'all can eat your sweets now."
I traveled up to Terror Mountain, which wasn't
that far away from my home in Neopia Central. I saw a young girl sitting near
the petpet's shop on a bench reading The Neopian Times.
"Hello," I said. " May I ask you a few questions
about your thoughts on 'Jelly World'?"
"Sure you can," she said sweetly. "I love 'Peanut
Butter and Blue World'. I go all the time. By the way I'm littlefirebringer."
Very confused, I repeated myself, "No, 'Jelly
World'. Do you think there really is one?" "And like I said 'I go all the time'.
I stayed at a hotel there once but the beds were made of peanut butter and my
hair was horrible the next morning!" she exclaimed.
I stared at her. What was she talking about?
"So there is peanut butter in 'Jelly World' ?"
"Arg! NO!" her politeness had already gone.
"There is no jelly in 'Peanut Butter and Blue World'. Just blue peanut butter."
I politely told her I had to leave and left
in mild surprise. Blue Peanut Butter? I thought. Someone surely has walked off
the deep end...
I traveled home but was still determined to
find out about this place. So the next morning, I dropped Candy, Bloop, and
DiscoFlower off at school and set off to The Neopian Bazaar. I saw someone sitting
over by the Chocolate Factory munching on about 15 Milk Chocolate Kyrii. I noticed
her from the petpet shop I took Bloop to get his petpet in Mystery Island. "Excuse
me ,dreamfaerie78965, can I ask you a few questions about 'Jelly Land' ?"
"Chocolate. Sure. Chocolate," she said dreamily
staring at her fingers which were dripping in melted chocolate.
"Great! Well, number one, have you ever been
to 'Jelly World'?"
"Chocolate. Chocolate. Nope. Chocolate. Chocolate."
"Ah-hm," I said interestingly not noticing her
sudden glances at the Chocolate Factory like it might attack her and the continuously
saying chocolate. "What do you think about the rumors by people claiming to
have been to 'Jelly World'?"
"Chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate. Think... rumors
false... chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate. " I had started noticing her hunger
for more chocolate. "Well--"
"CHOCOLATE! AAAARRRRGGGG!!!! I NEED CHOCOLATE!
YA YA YA! CHOCOLATE!" she yelled, biting someone's leg then running into the
Chocolate Factory. The guy she bit yelled and ran away.
After I looked at the Chocolate Factory blankly
for a while, I left home a took a nap. When I awoke I saw Bloop in the Living
Room watching 'Blumaroo Ninjas.'
"Bloop, how did you get home? You're supposed
to be at school," I said suspiciously.
"Candy picked me up. School is already out,
Mommy. Oh and guess what!?"
"What?" I said walking into the kitchen to see
Candy making a supper but still half-listening to Bloop.
"My frien' Archie said his Momma took him to
Jelly World this mornin' right a'fore school."
"Did he now?" I said interested.
"Ah-huh," he repeated.
I said, "Well, what else did he s--" but was
cut off by Bloop yelling 'Shhhh' because his show came back on. I turned over
to Candy to ask her what she was making.
"I made veggie hot dogs, organic broccoli, and
some potato wedges," she said before I could ask. "I didn't want to wake you."
After dinner that night, I decided to get on
my computer and got in a chat board called 'Jelly'. To my great relief, a few
people were talking about 'Jelly World'.
appplehead2000: there is a jelly world!
ive been there
niveina: Dare is not! neopets would have
told us!
pizpals1223: there is 1! i would tell
u where it is but it would say 'link-blocked' or sumfin
I read on, but it just led to more argueing.
Nothing I could use.
"Yay! Mommy wake up! Today is Saturday and yew
know what dat means!" Bloop yelled excitedly the next morning.
"Yay!" I laughed. "Pancake and Waffle Day!"
I picked him up and we ran down to the kitchen. Candy, as usual, was reading
a book and DiscoFlower sat at the table as excited as Bloop.
After breakfast, I scuttled off to the door,
but I was stuck by Bloop pulling on my shirt. "Mommy! I weally wanna go wif
yew!"
"But Bloop, you have to stay here," I said.
"Mom, can you bring me to Carlee's house?" DiscoFlower said walking over to
the door.
"Er, yes DiscoFlower I'll drop you off on my
way to the bank. And for you, Bloop --" I started.
"Pwease!" Bloop pleadingly interrupted.
"I... well... fine. Get in the car," I said
giving up. I didn't want Bloop to throw a tantrum.
I dropped DiscoFlower off and took 2,000 Neopoints
from the bank. "Here Bloop," I said handing Bloop 300 NPs, "go to the Food Shop
and get some lunch. I'll be waiting in the Book Shop buying your sister a new
book." Bloop wandered into the Food Shop and 5 minutes later was at the Book
Store.
I stuck the sandwich Bloop bought into my silver
backpack. Then, I said, "I had a few extra Neopoints so I bought you this book
about Blumaroo Ninjas, you know, that show you watch."
"Aw, cool! Tanks Mommy," he said looking at
the book. I stuffed that, too, into my bag.
"Come on. I have some interviews I have to do
at the Space Station," I said grabbing his hand so I wouldn't lose him in the
crowd.
When we got to the Space Station, we went to
Grundo's to sit and eat. I handed Bloop his sandwich and told him to sit and
wait while I ordered a coffee.
"Firs' time at Grundo's, eh?" said a large,
green Grundo.
"Yes, I'm looking for answer and can't find
them any-anywhere," I said depressingly. "Coffee, please," I added thoughtfully.
"Hey," he said," I gotta few minutes off. I
can answer a few. Question one?"
"What do you think about 'Jelly World' ?"
"I dunno," he said. I sighed disappointingly.
"But, you never know. I mean, who knew about Roo Island? Very few people, right?"
"Well, yeah I s'pose," I said meekly.
"Then they proved everyone right when on came
the news and there it was! Roo Island right next to Meridell. And what about
Maraqua? That was only discovered while back, eh?"
"Yeah! So your saying there is a 'Jelly World'
?" I said excitedly.
"Nope," he said calmly.
"Then your saying there isn't one?" I said.
But unfortunately he shook his head. "Well then what are you saying?"
"I'm saying," he said slowly, "you never know."
The End
Authors Note: I am happy to say, I know the answer to my question (Is there
really a 'Jelly World?') Thank you dreamfaerie78965, littlefirebringer, appplehead2000,
niveina, and pizpals1223 for letting me use your usernames as people in my story.
dreamfaerie78965 is my best friend and she was hysterical when she read the
part about her. : ) She really is a chocolate-aholic or choc-aholic, how ever
you say it. All the neopets used in this story are mine except Carlee and Archie.
Those are just random names I chose so I'm sorry if that's your pets name/nickname.
I hoped you liked my story! Neomails of compliments or criticism are acceptable
: ) Thanx!
