Kooky Page #2

- No one. Just a strange sound.

Show's over. Let's go.

Don't forget about my rocks.

Just a minute.

Somethings not right.

If he doesn't want to go

we shouldn't force him.

Maybe he does. Look, he's smiling.

I can't help it, I always smile.

But I don't want to go.

So, what's the decision?

No one's going to be taken away.

It would keep me up at night.

You want to kill this deal

over an old man's sleep?

This gentleman needed

some rocks shifted...

The Captain has spoken.

Hey, hey! Relax!

Why not leave that other

junk here too?

I'm sure you don't want it to... suffer.

Yes, as a matter of principle,

everything stays.

Principle? I think our Guardian has

fallen in love with that thing.

His very own cuddly toy.

Hey, Creeper,

you're such a good strangler.

I'll let you be official strangler

when I'm Guardian. - Really?

Sure. For starters, could you quietly

snare that toy for me?

- Why? You think he's cute?

- Very.

Thank you for saving me.

- The Guardian has a cuddly toy!

- Quit following me.

I've done all I can for you.

Now you're on your own.

- But l don't know my way home.

- Just follow the sun. It'll take you there.

Thanks. I'm sorry

for causing trouble.

- Yeah, sure... Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

Stop!

We need to talk...

Following the sun too?

Room for me...?

Cuddles in the woods alone.

Death will come to pick his bones!

...before it sets.

Now who the hell is that?

Who's there? - It's me again.

- What do you want now?

- The sun went down.

- You should've waited till morning.

- I'm allergic to the dark.

Well, you can't stay here;

everyone would talk.

I wouldnt have stuck up for

you had I known you'd stick around.

Please, just tonight.

I'll go in the morning.

Goddamn! Have you eaten?

Turn it off-you'll give us away!

The captain sleeps like a log.

Just wait 'til he's asleep.

- Will do.

- We're not stupid.

Yum, these poached

rabbit droppings are scrumptious.

You still haven't had my specialty

Pickled ant larvae.

You should eat

to build up your strength.

Excellent!

I never knew food tasted so good.

- Do you eat slugs?

- No.

This is the first time

I've ever eaten!

I never ate at home.

Are slugs good? - Disgusting.

I think only Nushka likes them.

He's the one who wants to take

over as Guardian? - Damn right.

But first hell have to prove

that I'm not up to it.

And that won't happen.

He doesnt know me.

But why don't you let him

take over since you're...

- What am I?

- Well, er, you... might want a rest.

You know what's good about being old?

I've seen so much

that I can predict

how things will turn out

before they happen.

It's called foresight.

That Nuschka gives me

the heebie jeebies.

- Heebie what?

- Geebies. That's what we say.

Right. That's about the only

thing you'll ever get from him.

Well, now it's time for bed.

I'll sleep on the balcony. You stay

here since you're scared of the dark.

So they went to sleep,

and so will we.

What is it now? - I've never slept

away from home before.

Except for last night,

in the woods.

Congratulations,

now turn off the light.

At home we always... said 'night night'.

- Fine, goodnight.

No kiss, no hug?

Cuddly toy indeed!

- They're not here.

- Maybe they're hidlng.

- Check the balcony?

- Don't shine that in my face!

- it's not that bright.

- Idiot! It is!

- Sorry.

- Now all I see are colored rings.

- I can see green ones too...

-What was that?

- He's waking up. Quick. Back to the lift!

- Can you see now?

- No. Just feeling my way.

Careful, there's a step here...

What the...?

Goddamn, this wasn't part of

the deal! What's got into you?

Sorry, I got scared.

I'm not used to sleeping alone.

Damn it! I hope no one saw us.

Up there-there's a bird and a butterfly!

Two of them!

Oh, not butterflies. They love to talk!

He was cold, so I shared my blanket.

Haven't you ever been cold?

Quit snooping and beat it!

And you hit the road too.

I don't want to see you here again.

- See you later.

- No, you won't. Good bye!

And don't get into trouble

because I won't keep saving you.

Sorry, Captain Sir,

but the sun isn't there today.

Aha, it's behind you.

But yesterday it was on the other

side, wasn't it? I'm confused...

The sun's here now

so go that way.

Just keep walking towards it.

And don't come back!

Thanks.

With a Little luck

he'll find his way somewhere.

But whether it's home... that's up to him.

Damn it! Not him again...

I'll show him!

- Who's that?

- Us.

We heard you were in bed with the

cuddly toy so felt it best to knock.

Who's us?

How should I know who "us" is?

You know how tiny

you look from up here?

Patrol unit from the dump.

Captain, we came to tell you

an animals in trouble.

- What animal? What trouble?

- It's furry, probably a dog.

- it's in Stinkville.

- Stinkville isn't my beat.

Not my problem, patrolmen.

See you later.

Nushka said you wouldn't

help. He's on his way there now.

Is he nuts? What's a Stinkville dog

got to do with him?

And, damn it, how come you're involved?

What should we tell him? That you

can't help or that you won't?

Tell him he's not the Guardian.

It's not his job.

He's setting a trap for me.

Hey, squirrels!

Two cones to sector Bravo, Victor,

Juliet-a bit to the left!

Ouch! We're being bombed!

HI, Pinky.

I'm not pink, I'm red.

You won't get far, Pinky.

HI, Captain. - So we hear you won't

help an animal in distress?

- It's in Stinkville.

- But Nushka saves it,

certain birdbrains will think he

should be Guardian instead of you.

And that wouldn't be good.

That's odd.There wasn't a hill here.

- Where?

Where I left my car.

I didn't think

I'd need it for a while.

- in the anthill?

- Ah, so it's an anthill!

That explains why

it wasn't here then.

And there should be

a big rock over there.

Do you see it... too?

- Yes, it's there.

- Then that's where my car is.

They say you can't see properly.

It's not true, is it?

Just imagine that, a Guardian

who couldn't see. What nonsense!

That's a relief.

So can we tell everyone

that our good old Guardian

still has what it takes?

'Course you can. I'm on my way!

- Bye! - Bye!

- And good luck!

Just testing the bumper.

But Stinkville is the other way.

Damn it! Damn it!

This isn't going to be easy.

I need better eyes.

Where's that little cuddly fellow?

He's always around

when you don't need him...

Hello, Mr. Kooky!

Hello!

- Hello, Mr. Kooky! Where are you?

- Over here!

- Come here, don't be scared.

- I can't, I'm all tangled up.

Say something so I can find you.

Ring a ring o'roses,

a pocketful of posies,

ashes, ashes, we all fall down

Where are you? Say something!

Blackberry, you're shaking.

Do you have the Little fellow?

Aha!

So, the Creeper's got him.

I haven't "got him", he just got tangled up.

Let him go!

Remember what you promised.

Thanks a lot.

I thought I was a goner!

- Ever driven a car?

- No.

It's complicated,

lots of levers and stuff.
