"Chomby and the Fungus Balls have a new request," Terray said. "They want
first serve of the omelette."
"That should be all right," Parrtay said. "Sabre-X won't mind as long as we can score him some extra Dark
Chocolate Chias."
Terray nodded. "Food seems to be the only major demand from everyone who'll be working that day. I doubled
our order of Crabletts and Cactus Blossoms. We have Elder Kyruggi's approval to set up some more
Gargaraptor spits in the village, but..." Terray hesitated, lowering her eyes.
Parrtay sighed. "What?"
"The Breadmaster had cancelled, so we'll be short on dessert. I can try getting some chocolates, or
maybe some ice cream—"
"It's too late!" Parrtay screamed. "I'm sorry Terray," she said. "Let me go see if the Council can do
anything to help."
Parrtay stomped towards the Town Hall. Planning parties was usually so much fun, but she regretted ever
agreeing to oversee the preparations for this year's Chomby Carnival. A snappy temper had replaced her
typical Chomby cheeriness since she had realised that the festival was only five days away.
"Parrtay!"
Parrtay stopped and turned around. What now? A Lupe bounded towards her.
"We have a problem with security," he said. "We've received reports of a flock of Pterii gathering in
the jungle to make trouble at the carnival..."

..."Well then, send some Scorchio Scouts to set them straight!" Parrtay yelled to the startled Lupe.
"I'm the carnival planner, not Grarrg! Ask him or Sabre-X about these things!"
The Lupe ran off, tail between his legs and muttering about stressed-out maniacs. A disgruntled Parrtay
continued towards the Town Hall.
Just then, a huge egg fell on top of the angry Chomby, splitting open and covering her with eggy goo.
"What the--?" she exclaimed when the goo tightened and the eggshell reformed around her, leaving only a
small hole for her neck to fit through. A bunch of cackling laughter was heard throughout the jungle.
Parrtay looked up with contempt. Pterii,she thought. She was right. Seconds later, a flock of an
unimaginable number of Pterii flew out of a dense clump of trees.
"You Pterii, why do you want to hurt my carnival?" she yelled up to them.
"We have a little score to settle..." A blue Pteri hissed. The other Pterii cackled behind him. They all
chanted at once, "The day has come, for our rejection is your downfall!"
"What are you talking about?" Parrtay yelled, still struggling with the egg.
"Well," the blue Pteri began. "At the Chomby Carnival last year..."

..."We weren't invited!" He sneered and the other Pterii booed and stomped their feet in disapproval.
"Of course you were," objected Parrtay indignantly. "I sent out the invitations myself."
"That's what you say," said the blue Pteri. "We never got any invitations."
"And we wouldn't have accepted them even if we did," added a young yellow Pteri with a snort.
"Shut up!" hissed the blue Pteri. He elbowed the youngster in the ribs. "Anyway," he said, turning back
to face Parrtay. "Now we are going to ruin this carnival of yours. If we can't have any fun, then neither
can anyone else."
With that the entire group of Pterii disappeared into the jungle and their shouts and laughs could be
heard a long time after.
Parrtay clenched her teeth and growled to herself. Those Pterii were nothing but troublemakers. And
they had left her stuck in this stupid egg, too. She wriggled and squirmed all she could but remained
helplessly trapped.
With a suffering sigh she gave up on her pride and raised her voice in a cry. "Help! Anybody? I'm stuck
in an...egg..." she trailed off as she started to giggle. How silly she must look with her head sticking
up from the shell. The more she thought about it the harder she laughed. Her stomach ached, and tears
streamed down her face as she wheezed for breath between giggles.
"Enjoying yourself are you?" came a voice from behind her...

...Parrtay's giggles stopped immediately. She coaxed her head into turning around. She strained her eyes to
see the small figure of a Krawk. Parrtay knew these mischievous creatures had a vicious bite. She did not want
to be in one's way.
" Shall we play tag?" The Krawk suggested, mischief showing in his voice. "I'll be it!" His voice turned into
a menacing growl. The Krawk started charging, his teeth showing.
Parrtay stood up. Swarms of giant Pterii blanketed the sky. Ten, maybe twenty, swooped down.
Oh no, Parrtay thought. Now I'm in for trouble.
But the timing was right, just as the Pterii swooped, the Krawk bit. All the Pterii flew away. But the Krawk stayed put.
Then he lifted his hand to the back of his head and unzipped. " Now let's get you out of this!" he said.
"Agent 00 Hog? Is that you?"
The Moehog looked puzzled. "Of course it is!" he said. "But I think we'll have to call off the Chomby Carnival..."

"...I have reason to believe that there is an imposter among Chomby and the Fungus Balls."
"WHAT!!!" Parrtay yelled. "This can't be happening. I'm finally involved in something, and someone comes
along and screws it up!" On that note, Parrtay ripped open the egg and climbed out. As she cleaned
herself off, she turned to Agent 00 Hog. "Are you positive that there's an imposter?"
Agent 00 Hog finished taking off his Krawk costume. He pulled out some pictures and showed them to her.
"Look at these pictures. The band in this picture is seen talking to the walls of their room. In the next
picture, you see them painting their faces. And the real no-brainer, they pull out a radio, pop in
a CD and start lip-synching."
"What?" said Parrtay. "They hate make-up. And what's the deal with the walls? You sure you're okay Agent? I
mean, you have been known to drink a couple of Rainborific Slushies every now and then, if you *hic* know
what I mean."
"Really, well, listen to this." He pulled out a tape recorder and hit the play button.
"...bledeslo...milistikrilo...blomikolosotilomoritzo..." He hit the stop button. "That is what's with the walls."
Parrtay looked in amazement at everything before her. "We have to tell someone. I know, we'll tell Sabre-X.
He'll know what to do."
"Alright. Let's go." As they pack up all the evidence, Parrtay saw someone in the distance.
"Quick, Agent 00 Hog. Hurry it's..."

"...almost time for Chomby and the Fungus Balls' dress rehearsal. If we can't get there in time, they will be left alone and
they'll get away with it!" Parrtay said angrily.
Annoyed, Agent 00 Hog rolled his eyes and muttered something about Chombys and pressure. "Okay..." Agent 00 Hog said quietly,
as they approached the small tents behind the Carnival Stage. "When I say go, you go to the stage and distract the staff,
while I take care of the band."
"Wait," Parrtay said, quickly grabbing Agent 00 Hog's arm, "what do you mean by 'take care of the band'?"
"Don't worry, trust me." Agent 00 Hog winked before pushing her toward the stage. "Now, stall the staff."
Parrtay was walking toward the stage when, all of a sudden, she heard a loud shout coming from the Dressing Tents.
She quickly ran over to the tents and looked inside the first one.
"Agent 00 Hog!" she shouted. "Where's the..."

"...band..." Parrtay trailed off as she saw the mess in the tent. Amidst the piles of clothes and CDs were
the band members, tied up and gagged.
Wow, she thought, Agent 00 Hog works quickly.
But then, her eyes strayed over to the far corner of the tent, where, to her surprise, was none other
than Agent 00 Hog. The only problem was that he was tied up and gagged as well. "Agent 00 Hog? What
happened?" she exclaimed.
The tied-up Moehog began squirming, trying to tell her something. She finally looked over her shoulder
and there was Agent 00 Hog, pointing a Lightning Gun at her. She looked back and forth at the two. Two
Agent 00 Hogs?
What appeared to be a magnificent breakthrough in cloning was revealed when the Agent with the
Lightning Gun unzipped himself. It was the blue Pteri.
"Thank you so much for joining us," he said. "We couldn't start the fun without a...Parrtay, could we?"
The one section of the tent connected to the stage started giggling at the blue Pteri's pun.
"Oh, do come out and bid our guest welcome," the blue Pteri said to the wall.
From behind the wall emerged...

...the rest of the Pterii. Diabolical laughter echoed throughout the tent. The Pterii stepped closer to
Parrtay.
"You know, I don't think I apologised for not inviting you to last year's Chomby Carnival," Parrtay
said, trying to hide the quavering in her voice, but to no avail.
"Wait, didn't she invite us?" said the same little yellow Pteri.
"Shaddup," replied the blue Pteri. Then his voice became deeper, almost a roar. "Besides, even if she
did invite you, she sure didn't invite me."
"What are you talking about?!" Parrtay asked, in fear that she recognized the Pteri's changed
voice.
"You will know soon enough," said the ominous-sounding Pteri. "All of Tyrannia will know."
Agent 00 Hog, taking advantage of the situation, proceeded to cut through his ropes with his secret
wrist-knife.
The blue Pteri's feathers started shedding as it became larger. Suddenly there was an explosion, and
feathers flew everywhere, sending everyone sprawling to the ground. Black smoke filled the area.
Parrtay slowly stood up. "What's going on?"
"Foolish young Tyrannian," said a voice. Red eyes glowed in the black smoke. "Did you think that the
Monoceraptor would stay dormant for long?"
"Oh my goodness!" Parrtay exclaimed.
A roar erupted and a large clawed foot thundered out of the black smoke. The body emerged and stopped
in front of Parrtay. Monoceraptor raised a clawed hand.
"Now, you will be my first example," Monoceraptor growled as he raised a clawed hand.
Parrtay shielded herself. Monoceraptor brought down his clawed hand...

But Agent 00 Hog jumped in the way. With the speed of lightning, he quickly filed the claws down to the
skin. Monoceraptor cried out as his skin began to peel away. Underneath was not a horrendous beast but a little Aisha.
"Hey," he screamed in a high pitched voice, "that was my best..."

"...costume!"
Parrtay was astonished. And very annoyed. "Hey, I know you! You're Annoying Aisha! I
remember not inviting you!" She walked over to him. "I didn't invite you, because last year,
you tore apart the food tent because you didn't like the fruit cake!!" she yelled. She walked
over to him and picked him up by the scruff of his neck.
"Hey! Ow! Let me down!"
Soon, the little Aisha was in a cage, screaming "Hey! Let me out! I AM THE MONOCERAPTER! HAHAHA!"
"What are we going to do with him?" asked Parrtay. She suddenly had an idea. "Okay, Annoying, you can
come to the carnival" She said evilly.
"I can?" asked the Aisha.
"Yep," answered Parrtay.
Parrtay sat at the corndog stand, watching the carnival. Across from her was the Soak-A-Bloke stand.
Sitting wet on the Soak-A-Bloke seat, was the Aisha. Agent 00 Hog sat beside Parrtay.
"Great idea for the Aisha. But, what did you do with the Pterii?" he asked.
She pointed to the left. Agent 00 Hog
looked to the left, to see twenty Pterii picking up trash and mopping up the bathrooms.
The End
