The others rushed over and began to listen; they
couldn’t believe that the walls were talking, but they
were. Ben got in closer and removed a cookie display from
the wall, and then peeled back the candy wallpaper. What he
saw was unbelievable; there were tiny little people living
in the walls!
They were going about their daily lives as if
everything was normal. The other children jumped over to
see the tiny people. Then Mr. Smorge came by, but the
children were so intrigued with their new finding that they
didn’t notice him behind them.
“They are called Toonies,” he said.
The children jumped away from the hole, and went back
to their seats; blaming everything on Ben. But, Mr. Smorge
just chuckled and walked off.
“What are the Toonies?” asked Jamyra.
Mr. Smorge shouted back, “They are the oil that keeps
this train moving to the Wacky Fun Factory.” The children loved this adventure, and all the
experiences they were having. Servers dressed in candy
costumes began to bring them treats and snacks. Peter and
his friends gobbled down the desserts and fruit snacks, but
he couldn’t help looking out the window. He noticed that
the train was flying through the air!
“This is impossible,” he said.
“What?” asked the others.
Peter pointed out that the train was flying.
"Oh! How cool is that?" said Clara.
Off into the sky the train went like a big red rope
winding through the air; while the children's faces were
pushed up against the glass, looking out to see the skies.
The red train flew through a burst of cotton candy clouds,
all in different colors; there were blue, pink, red, black,
purple and many more. The smell of candy filled the train;
the children could almost taste the candy.
The train went down tunnels made of candy canes, and
flew through waterfalls made of milk; the entire land
seemed to be made of candy. This was truly a wacky fun
ride. Down on the ground, the children noticed Ferris
wheels, rides galore, and an “all you can eat” candy sign.
The children began to jump up and clap.
Then a voice came on the train, "Quiet down, you brats!" it was Mr. Smorge.
But Peter and his friends did not care; they just
wanted to have the time of their lives, they could hardly
keep still until the ride stop. As they were coming in for
a landing, golden belts came out of the seats and strapped
the children in.
"Welcome to the Wacky Fun Factory," said a voice on
the speaker.
The children once again shouted and clapped, but this
time they were not told to keep quiet. As soon as the
golden belts release the children, they were up in the air
and out of their seats waiting to un-board the train. Then
little elves came on board with candy balloons and large
lollipops. The elves were two feet tall and cuddly; they
had on the golden Wacky Fun Factory cast member badge, and
colorful uniforms. They began to sing the Wacky Fun Factory
song.
"Oh! Welcome to our world of joy, a world of toys for
girls and boys; we welcome you to our land of dreams, and
milky streams; with candy lands and little ant
farms,"(singing).
When the song was over, everyone began to clap and
couldn’t wait to un-board. Peter was the most excited of
all his friends. The world of Baja was new to him, and he wanted to experience every minute of it.
Then one of the elves came and announced, "Everyone
with a golden pass step this way."
Peter and his friends quickly stepped right on up. The
short, stout little elf looked up at Peter and his friends,
and scanned their golden passes over and over with the
magical glasses that popped out of his head. On the inside
of his glasses the word "authentic" floated off the ticket
and onto his eyes.
"These are authentic, let them go in," said the elf.
But Jamyra, Michael, Steve, and Sam had to stay back;
they only had a regular pass. Once again, Jamyra got upset
and turned the elf into a block of ice. For this
disruption, she was quickly handed over to the Wacky Fun
Factory security guards, and sent back to Waldorf Academy.
The guards were the most splendid thing Peter has ever
seen. They walked around with golden shields that had
different card symbols on them. One group was the ace of
hearts, and another came by that read the king of spades.
These guards never smiled or let their guard down. Their
big helmets covered their faces and all one could see were
their lips moving. Jamyra went kicking and screaming, as
usual.
"What an embarrassment," said Clara. The children then got a lecture on how to behave in
public, by the senior elf. The speech went on and on, until
the children were nodding off asleep, and then the elf
stopped talking.
"Okay, kids, this way," the elf pointed the children
into the special magical cart that was only for people with
the golden pass.
Peter and his friends were excited, and then they got
into a bubble gum pink cart that was driven by a large pink
fluffy monkey. He had on a chauffeur’s hat and a tight
jacket. Peter was amazed to see the size of such a
creature. The monkey chauffer greeted his passengers, and
opened the door for them. The bubble gum cart was amazing
inside. First, on the outside it was a shinny pink, and
that carried into the inside. The interior smelled like
bubble gum, and the seats were soft and cushiony plush. The
mats on the floor were also made from the same type of gum.
The children piled into the cart, and watched as it took
off.
"Hold onto your golden tickets, you will need them,"
said the driver.
The children held their tickets tightly, put them into
their pockets, and latched them with their buttons. Now it
was time for them to enjoy themselves. First stop was the Blue Mountain. The children jumped out, and off they went
running. Blue Mountain was the place everyone wanted to be,
it was made up of different levels of surfing, an easy,
medium, hard, and very hard.
Peter and his friends were first in line because they
had the golden tickets; so they got special treatment
throughout the day at Wacky Fun Factory. In line, Peter and
his friends chose the medium surfing level. They put away
their bags and changed after meeting up on the slope. They
ran to the first wave.
Blue Mountain was spectacular; there were large
surfing waves, water so blue and crystal clear, and the
medium level was so big that it could hold ten thousand
surfers at one time. Peter and his friends were given
special boards, each fit one of the children’s
personalities. Millie got a board that was all white with a
big green bear engraved on the front, and it talked to her.
"Cool," said Millie.
Peter got an orange board with a fiery red outline. It
was engraved with a lizard that also talked. Clara got a
blue board that had little white elves that all talked.
Robert got a black board that shot out different color
stars, and Zack got a purple board that turned into a
little submarine. Nicholas got a surfboard that was grey and it shot water up into the air like a water hose. And
lastly, Ben got a yellow board that made big giant bubbles
in the water. The first water bubble that he made was so
huge that it caused a big tidal wave, but no one seemed to
mind.
Everyone was there to have fun, and since very few
people get a golden pass, the children were more
celebrities in their own rights. Peter was amazed to see
all the different kinds of people and ghosts in the Wacky
Fun Factory. There were people with fur, there were monkey
people, there were small elves, there were reptile people,
people that were half man half animal, there were visitors
who looked like real ghosts, and so forth. Peter's mouth
dropped open as he saw all the different groups of people
living in harmony together and having a great time.
"Close your mouth or you’ll get flies," said Zack.
Peter and his friends began to chuckle and then they
took off to Blue Mountain. Peter could not get over the
beauty of the mountain; the large palm trees, the giant
birds that flew overhead, and the real lava volcano that
oozed out green slime gum. It was great to be a kid in the
land of the Wacky Fun Factory.
There were thousands of people in the water, swimming
and surfing, and just having a jolly old good time. Peter and his friends jumped into the water; they were all ready
to surf. Pigeons came on a board surfing by. Clara’s board
began to talk and tell her how to surf. She was excited to
hear her board talking, and put it up closer to her ear.
The image talking was like a 3-D hologram. It told Clara
and her friends to hit the waves, and so they did all.
The children began to surface. Robert’s black
surfboard shot out stars, and the children in the water
began to try and catch them. Zack turned his surfboard into
a submarine and went under water where he saw large sea
snakes with golden crowns on their heads, large plants that
flourished on the bottom and blinked in many different
colors and then shot the colors into the air causing great
fireworks. Every time this happened, the crowd would cheer
and jump up to catch the falling colors.
Millie’s board had a green bear, and when she touched
it, the hologram awoke and took her by the hands; and began
to surf with her. Peter’s lizard hologram also came off of
his board, and began to teach him how to surface; the two
went flying through the air and riding the big waves.
"Weeeeeeeee," said Peter.
Meanwhile, Clara was followed by her army of hologram
elves that came off of the surfboard to surf with her, and
Nicholas programmed his surfboard to shoot water ten to twenty feet in the air. The crowd went crazy, the children
had the entire park having more fun than normal, and Ben
had his surfboard making giant water bubbles that burst in
the air and water splashed all over the park. They created
giant surfing waves.
The children were having the time of their lives, but
a few of their classmates were extremely jealous and felt
that Peter, Clara, Millie, Robert, Ben, Zack, and Nicholas
were having a much better time than they were. So Sam and
Steve decided that they would steal two of the golden
passes from their classmates and go through the park
enjoying all the free things that they were getting.
While Peter and the rest of his classmates were having
fun, Steve and Sam went into the boys’ restroom and took
Peter and Robert’s golden passes. Sam was the first to
break into Peter's locker, and then he helped Steve to
break into Robert's and not be seen. Steve let his foot
grow large, and then give off an odor that was out of this
world. The stench knocked out anyone who was at the door
for a minute. This made them almost invisible, because when
Steve’s foot let off an odor, it was always followed by a
green misty foam cloud, and the two could hide in the stink
cloud. The two boys were happy that they had pulled off
this heist, and began to give each other their secret handshake. Everywhere the two boys went, the stench was
knocking out people for a minute.
"Sam, I am so glad you are immune to my toe jam," said
Steve.
"No, I am not immune; I am holding my breath," said
Steve as the two boys went laughing down the sidewalk of
the park.
The first place they stopped to use their golden
passes was Blackberry's Ice Cream Shop, one of the largest
shops in Baja. This was where tiny dwarfs made ice cream
for the park attendees; and the two boys ordered ten scoops
of blackberry ice cream, a yummy ice cream that was coated
with black chocolate and red strawberries. The ice creams
were over a foot tall, and Sam and Steve ate and ate until
the ice cream began to melt all over their arms in the hot
sun. The two boys had ice cream in their hair and all over
their faces; with the golden passes, they were treated like
royalty.
Their next stop was the Browler Hole, which was a
prehistoric town lost in a time warp that had been invaded
by the human species. The town consisted of large holes,
and in those large holes were different types of
entertainment. There were plenty for the visitors to do;
the town was untouched by time, it was perfect in every way. Fresh breezes, tall trees that ascended into the
heavens, rocks that had different gods and spiritual
leaders carved into them, and tall statues made of wood and
stone. Everyone in the Browler Hole lived in harmony, with
cobblestone streets and flowers that sang and sprayed
fragrances into the air.
Browler Hole was built by small pezzers, which were
small two foot high red dwarfs. Their skin glowed with the
Baja symbols and was covered in mud because they were
diggers; they dug holes for a living. The pezzers were very
kind to mankind, and in return for their protection and
kindness, mankind was allowed to stay and live with the
pezzers. This land was immaculate; there was no trash on
the streets, the entire surroundings were clean and tidy.
There were millions of tiny houses made of straw and
mud; there were also life-sized shops and entertainment
made for the visitors. This side of the park was very
exclusive, and only members with a golden pass could enter.
The two boys showed their golden passes and were
immediately allowed into Browler Hole. The place itself was
another park within a park. It was huge and had acre upon
acre of land; Sam and Steve couldn’t believe that they got
into this exclusive park. The two boys began to make fun of
Peter and his friends; laughing about how they would find out that their golden passes were missing.
Browler Hole had a large watering hole; this was where
the prehistoric fish and animals were seen. For the first
time, the boys could see a bushel cat. It was being held
down by ten hunters; it must have been at least two
thousand pounds with a fluffy brown and white coat, paws
the size of moving carts, and long tusks that curled up in
the air. This animal was a cross between a cat, an
elephant, and a pig.
Sam and Steve ran up to see the creature; this was
their first time laying eyes on such a magnificent beast.
The lines were long, and Sam and Steve could not see too
well; it was too bad that in here everyone had a golden
pass. So, there was no special treatment. Nevertheless, Sam
and Steve waited their turns to touch the creature. It was
soft and fluffy, its fur blew in the wind, and the creature
was very docile. The boys were allowed to hug and take
pictures of themselves with the animal.
But, the really fun part of Browler Hole was riding
the "Goo Ride". It was a long slippery tar mud slide that
slid the visitors for miles, up and down, through hoops and
turns. The only thing need
