The Littlest Angel Page #3

Halo, mine are gone too.

What's happening?

Aw, don't worry.

That always happens

when an angel's feet--

or paws-- touch earth.

But what are we going to do

without our wings?

How are we gonna get back up

to heaven if we can't fly?

Ah, ye of little faith.

Watch and learn.

All you gotta do is focus real hard--

angel vision, remember?

And--

Uh-oh.

Hmm, maybe a little less

face scrunching.

Attaboy! But now

make 'em disappear again.

- How come?

- You don't think we're allowed

to run around earth

looking like something

that jumped off

a stained-glass window, do you?

- l get your point.

- And we don't want to break any rules

that could get us locked out

of the pearly gates.

Okay, wings away.

- Uh-oh, halo.

- What?

Not you, that halo.

Angel Eve showed me

how to do this.

Oh, sweet trick.

But that shiny O over your head

is another dead giveaway

you ain't from around here, kid.

Better find someplace

really safe to hide it.

l know the perfect place!

l'll hide my halo on my Halo.

Huh?

Now it just looks like

your dog collar.

Okay, time to go play

fetch the treasure box.

So which way?

l kinda got turned around

when we were landing.

Well, crashing.

But l'm pretty sure

it's just over the next hill.

And so

the littlest angel and his new friend

set out to find his home,

see the places he used to play

and retrieve

the missing treasure box.

But they would soon remember

that heaven and earth

are two very different

sorts of places.

lt wasn't over the next hill

or next or the next after that either.

l never thought l'd say it,

but l sure miss my angel wings.

l don't see why it would hurt

to fly up and see where my village is.

Nope. Huh-uh.

Rotten idea.

What if some human saw you?

How are you gonna explain

a boy with wings?

l guess you're right.

Of course l'm right.

Come on.

Don't know if it's your village,

but my super sniffer's

- picking up people scents.

- Which way?

Just over the next hill.

We'll just go up to the house

and ask directions to my village.

l might as well ask them

if they can spare an old bone too.

Wait, a talking dog on earth

might seem kind of strange.

You'd betterjust stick to growls

and barks when people are around.

Gee, l kinda got used

to speaking my mind.

l hope l can remember

how to act like a regular old dog.

Maybe it'd be better to ask

the barnyard animals instead.

Let me think here.

They won't understand me.

Earth animals can't talk

like angel animals can.

No sweat. l still remember

how to talk turkey,

and lots of

other critters' tongues too.

l'll just ask this goose

and cow which way.

That cow sure sounds mad.

Maybe because he's a bull.

- What are they saying?

- Loosely translated:

No trespassing.

Get lost.

Run!

l think we lost 'em.

Good, but you forgot

to tell them.

Run!

Come on,

no way bulls can climb trees.

Uh, neither can dogs.

Hey, there aren't

any humans around.

Why can't we use our-- wings!

Halo, look out!

Guess it serves him right

for being so mean.

But l kinda feel sorry for him.

l guess we should

try and get him free.

l was afraid

you were gonna say that.

Okay, one, two,

three, pull!

Come on.

We're crunchy kibble now.

Oh, prepare to be noogified.

Huh?

- What did they say?

- The village is--

right over the next hill.

lt's already night

and kind of dark out.

Maybe we should

wait till morning.

Yeah good, 'cause l'm dog-tired.

lt's weird looking up at heaven.

Huh? Hmmm.

l wonder if anybody

even noticed we're gone.

When l get my hands

on that little angel, l'll--

Wait, what's that?

Could this be him?

Hear ye, hear ye!

God has decreed

the most glorious event

for all the citizens of earth.

He has requested

all angels in his firmament

to prepare the most wonderful

celebration of all time.

Bring your most splendid gifts.

What?

What is the celebration for?

You know God will announce

His plan in His own time.

But l got word that it'll be soon.

ln the meantime,

prepare your gifts!

Prepare

for the greatest celebration

heaven and earth

have ever known.

Oh ho, of all the days.

Logan!

Logan...

please, get your big sandals

off my desk.

This is insufferable, intolerable,

inexcusable, in-- in--

- in--

- Uh, inviting?

- lnterns? lnvestments?

- What are you rambling about?

l thought we were trying to think

of words starting with "in."

Didn't you hear the messenger angel

who just blew in here?

Sorry, l was listening to

"Hey Hey, Get Off of my Cloud."

God has just announced

the biggest, most exciting event

He's ever planned for earth.

And heaven needs to start preparations.

l love celebrations!

l hope we get to wear party hats

and blow those funny whistles

- that shoot out--

- Ahem!

We need to find that

missing little angel

and get him back here

to the academy.

Everything must be absolutely

perfect for God's big day.

Don't worry. The little tyke has

to be around heaven someplace.

Where else could he go?

Well, if l bore you that much,

l'll just be on my way then.

Guess we can look for the littlest guy

first thing in the morning.

Hmph!

Come on, Halo.

Just one more hill and we're there.

l'll believe that when l see it.

l can hardly wait

to see my house again

and get my box.

- Uh-oh.

- Yeehaw!

What was that all about?

They just wanted to say thanks

for the good deed

- and warn us to be careful.

- Of what?

- A guard goose and a bull?

- l don't know.

lt didn't make much sense to me.

Some cruel creep

that uses critters for show?

Whatever the heck that means.

Step right up.

Step right up,

ladies and gentlemen.

See the one and only

two-headed snake

and the amazing talking chicken.

l didn't hear

no chicken talking.

Just drop in your coins

then the chicken will

thank you personally.

Brok! Bok bok!

Look at me, l'm a talking chicken.

Brok!

Bok bok bok bok!

Aw, it's a big fake.

The chicken's lips aren't even moving.

Hey, we've been gypped.

Give us our money back!

l didn't hear any chicken talk.

Yeah, you just weren't

watching carefully.

Move your lips, chicken.

Flap your blasted beak, bird!

What?

Stop, wait, come back!

lt's all part of the show.

What were you thinking, woman?

Oh, don't tell me you swallowed

the fake snake head again.

Don't you know

we need it for the show?

l warned you, Creepedeep.

No one is going to fall

for that phony two-headed snake

or your pathetic ventriloquist act.

Mind your own business,

muscle-head.

This traveling show

is my business.

And l'm warning you, unless you

come up with a real attraction,

you two are out of here.

Heh heh heh heh.

He'll see.

One of these days

l'm going to find

the greatest attraction of all time!

What if the people that live here now

already found your special box?

No way! l kept it hidden underneath

a loose floorboard in my bedroom.

- l'll just slip inside and--

- Whoa there, little pup.

Even though your wings aren't showing,

you're still an angel.

So breaking into houses
