Night 4

(By request, I shall do my best. )

Alarra stood up to stretch her legs. She'd been working on the third story all night long. As she headed to the kitchen to get some milk, she thought she heard a strange sound coming from the Pudding Troll's room.

{tune of Ray Parker Jr.'s Ghostbusters}

If there's something strange
in the playground .
Who ya gonna call?
PUDDING TROLL!

Alarra quietly walked down the hall, not wishing to awaken her precious little one.

If there's something weird
and it don't look good.
Who ya gonna call?
PUDDING TROLL!

As she entered she caught sight of an amazing sight. Pudding Troll was sitting in his crib, giggling happily as a Ray Parker Jr's song played softly in the background.

I ain't afraid of no profs.
I ain't afraid of no profs.

But something struck her as being strange.

If you're hearing things
running through your head.
Who can ya call?
PUDDING TROLL

Alarra shook her head, still not sure she'd heard that correctly.

A devious man
leading you astray.
Who ya gonna call?
PUDDING TROLL

She wasn't hearing things! Zeb!! Alarra called out, rushing to Lil' Pudding. But as she reached out to grab him, he placed his tiny hand upon her lips, and then was gone.

Moments later, when Zeb the Troll ran into the room, Alarra was still standing near Pudding Troll's bed. She wasn't sure why, but she wasn't afraid. She knew that Pudding Troll was still here, and that he'd protected her. She just wasn't sure what from.

Elsewhere in the playground......

Blue Ghost writing up a whitty retort in the Who's Next SMBG. He hadn't posted there in a while, and most everyone had stopped expecting him. Just like he liked it.

He posted his five choices, but when he clicked the submit button, his five choices all said.... Murska?

Murska's never posted in Who's Next. Blue Ghost said to himself. I don't think I've ever even seen him in SMBG, except for Werewolf games.

Then a strange song began to play in his head. It may (or may not) have sounded familiar to him.

{tune of Buckner and Garcia's Pac-Man Fever}

I got a pocket full of quarters
and I'm headed to the arcade.
I don't have a lot of money
but I'm bringing everything I made.
I got a callous on my finger
and my shoulder's hurting too.
I'm gonna eat 'em all up
just as soon as they turn blue.

But as it grew louder, Blue Ghost's perception of reality began to spin. And then he was standing in a hall with strange blue walls.

'Cause I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
It's driving me crazy!
(Driving me crazy)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)

There was a faint green glow pulsing around him. He wasn't sure why, but he was certain that he was, no it couldn't be, was he really.... Murska!

I got all the patterns down
up until the ninth key.
I got Speedy on my tail
and I know it's either him or me.
So I'm heading out the back
going in the other side.
Gonna eat the cherries up
and take 'em all for a ride.


At that moment, four familiar ghosts appeared from around a corner. But as Murska watched, all of them changed form into Roland St. Jude.

You've been a bad, bad eyeball. The Rolands sneered at Murska, pulling out their shiny pistols. I believe it's time for you to go.

I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
It's driving me crazy!
(Driving me crazy)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)

Murska turned and rolled around a corner. He had to get out of this crazy maze!

I'm gonna bank to the left
then move to the right.
(To the right)
'Cause Pokey's too slow
and Blinky's outta sight.

Murska raced through the maze, gobling down power pills, and wandering cherries. He was even able to chomp a few of the Rolands, but they kept coming. It was like he was in some strange alternative version of Pac-Man.

Now I've got them on the run
and I'm looking for the high score.
So it's once around the block
and I slide back out the side door.
I'm really cooking now
eating everything in sight.
All my money's gone
so I'll be back tomorrow night.

And then Blue Ghost realized, he was in some perverse alternative version of Pac-Man!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!

'Cause I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
It's driving me crazy!
(Driving me crazy)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)
I got Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
Driving me, driving me,
driving me crazy!
Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)
Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
It's driving me crazy!
(Driving me crazy)
I say Murska fever!
(Murska fever)
I'm going out of my mind!
(Going out of my mind)
