TM stops and thinks for a moment,
then walks over to the doorway, opens it, steps inside,
and closes it with a click.
Hah! thats so
funny! The guards forgot to lock and close the door all
the way. Anyway, I figured you wanted this as well.
It won't fit through the bars.
Well I can't stay any longer I have a metting to
get to, I'll stop by later to sneak in some more
food.
Turning around he heads back to the
doorway and tries to open
it...
PaperDragon sudden appears from 'page

taking about. Very easy to find. All you have to do is
look for the intuitive title of 'Experimetantlal Program

The Badger gaurds entered the cell
area to observe the sheepish looking TM and ensure the
doors to the cell area, all of them, are now in fact
firmly secure.
Looking at the large Brother
Bear, and looking at Elkae cuddling with Brother Bear,
they do nothing. The bear is a strong and powerful
Totem. I guess they figured, in spite of Elkae being in
prison, anyone with such a Totem can't be all bad, now
can they?
"Hang on!" Speedy said as she ran
off. "Where is she going?" asked frontmullet. "I
am assuming to get something important... but she'll be
back soon..." said Grassie. Sure enough, Speedy was
quickly back, holding a book in hand.
"What on..." said MrD as he took the book from
Speedy. "In the journal I found in the bedroom, it
explained that this book would link to an age filled
with badgers and mushrooms since the daughter in the
house had a fascination for badgers... somewhat of her
own personal age. But the badgers in there aren't
ordinary, but they are 'different' and soon, they became
too dangerous for the little girl to even go. Check out
the main image!" Speedy said as she opened the book in
MrD's hands:
"It appears they even guard the linking area..."
said Dr. Warrell, getting nervous of this
adventure. "Well, what do you think we should do?"
asked frontmullet.

Sadly, what wasn't understood at the
moment, is that it was the girls parents that wouldn't
let her continue to visit the badgers. What the little
girl knew, and the parents did not, is that the badgers
were powerful healers. Just as they are revered to be
among the Pueblo Peoples. Strong, the badgers are
identified with warriors. But living underground, they
had knowledge of the roots and passed this knowledge on
to the woman and so were familiars of the women
also.

"Well, we could make a diversion,
something that will draw the badgers away from the
linking area so the rest of us can link in..." suggested
Dr. Warrell. "Hrm, I wonder who those people will
be,..." said MrD as he looked at Speedy and
Grassie. Speedy and Grassie caught those
glares. "Oooooh boy..." Speedy
muttered.

There
were four badgers at the linking area, partrolling in
case of any intruders. But since there hasn't been any
activity in that region in over 100 of their years, so
the patrol was rather relaxed. Suddenly there was a
weird shimmering noise. "Huh?" the badgers moaned as
they looked around. Suddenly, there was a blue stork and
a white ferret on the ground in front of
them. "Grrr?" the badgers went in confusion,
wondering where on earth those creatures came from. Then
they remembered that they had spears and were guards,
and these things were not suppose to be there. So, they
charged at them. The bird and the ferret looked at
one another. Then they began to scream. The ferret shot
off running while the bird flew in the air and flew in
the same direction as the ferret. The badgers continued
in pursuit. A few minutes later, three humans linked
into this mushroom world. Looking around, they ran off
and hid in the protection of some of the larger
mushrooms...

Kestryll links in wearing one of his
new vests with the Teledahn Winery logo on the back. He
brushes off a few spores and heads over to the Eggroom
to reload the tables.
He wanders in opens the
crate he was carrying, then takes his time with his
restock. Idly mumbling to himself in the process...
Still not quite himself after his little out-of-mind
experience...

As Grassie was running down the
walkways, he saw in the distance that the Walkway was
broken. He yelled to Speedy: " Pick me up please, I'm
running out of runway here...!" Speedy swooped down
and grapped Grassie by the straps of his customsized
back-pack, just as the Badgers were trying to grab
him. Unfortunately, they were so intent on grabbing
Grassie, they didn't notice the end of the road, and
they all fell down into the water a few feet below. "
That was a close call Speedy, but I guess we shook off
that pursuit"

Professor T had a fitful sleep. Images
of Elkae kept coming into his mind - his senior
researcher who had left to join Zandi, was almost
drowned in the lake, appeared to have died and now had
been thrown into prison. And if those thoughts weren't
bad enough, images of the disappeared Stellaflora kept
intruding into his mind too - a transparent, ghostly
figure who went up and down in elevators.
The
professor awoke and looked at his desk. An artistic
arrangement of acorns made him smile. There was a bag
too. He put his head inside and sniffed. Pine nuts! He
loved pine nuts!
Finding herself suddenly famished at a
ridiculously late hour, Ronda linked in from a romp in
EdKe -- in which she had figured out how to swing from
the jump-rope-like dangles of the brain trees, or
troomers, but had NOT done any fishing -- and jumped
down the stairs to the DISCO. Finding no one there, she
swiped several fig newtons, left a note on the spindle
and linked out.
Heehee, Elkae!
{{Elkae}} Just so long as you aren't a
deeentist... Actually, I think Chere got it too. Cute
cats!

Seymour pours over The Exotic
Plants and Flower catalog... "Anthuriums, Asters,
Banksia. Hmmm no Audrey II's listed. I wonder where I
can order them", Seymour thinks. He also hopes the
visitors of the neighborhood won't have trouble talking
to a cat. Of course, had Seymour met Urudawg, Grassie,
Speedy or the founder of the Institution, Professor
Thietris Squirrel, he'd wonder how Chere was going to
get along!
Veronica entered the DISCO early the
next morning, calling out for Grizz.
"Grizz!! I
need to tell you what happened yesterday! Where are
you?!"
She made a fresh pot of coffee and then
searched the countertop for a note from Grizz, seeing
none, she walked outside and yelled up to Cordelia,
"Have you seen Grizz this morning?!" Veronica's voice
had an excellent rebound effect off the cavern walls, so
the "morning" portion of her question went around
several times.

Hmmm. I think this place needs
brightening up with lots of plants. Perhaps some
climbers round the balconies. Pot plants outside the
linking room. And what about some tasteful
sculptures?
Cordelia awakes and hears Veronica's
dulcet tones echoing around the hood. She rubs her eyes
and looks in the mirror.
"Mmmmm, could do with a
bit of a wash," she thinks to herself, "nevermind, guess
I'd better go and see what Veronica wants."
She
opens the door and steps out into the normal dull glow
of the Institution. Noting that Veronica is nowhere in
sight, she walks on down to the DISCO. On her way she
passes Chere setting up her store.
"Good morning
Chere, don't forget to put a display of plants out on
the telescope balcony. They will brighten the place
up."
As she reaches the DISCO she sees Veronica
standing at the counter with her hand on her hip and a
sulky pout on her face.
"I haven't seen Grizz for
a whole 24 hours now, Veronica. I thought he had told
you where he was going to be. I've got far too many
other things to do so I'll have to leave you to look for
him, although it does seem strange that he's been gone
so long."
She stands and thinks for a while,
scratches her head and then sets off back to the
professor's office to see if he enjoyed his present from
Ronda.
Chere, Seymour is
delightful. However do you manage to get him to do your
books for you? Tiger won't do anything - he's just so
lazy
