"okay lady, "we've narfled the garthok," says babu. "so what now?"
"patience!" cries mrs singe, obviously enjoying herself. "it's a quest! not a drive-thru at burger king. we will continue!"
just then bixby snyder runs up with a huge burger king bag & hands everyone double whoppers.
"oh goody, i'm starving!" exclaims taffy.
"dammit dixby!" yells the lovely mrs. singe.
"being mortals, they have to eat!" says bixby. conversationally, the whopper is very popular in japan! and i have a box of wine and lots of plastic cups! and i picked up some flashlights, and some undergarments! if any of you girls need a change of underwear, i'll be more than happy to help!"
"oh bixby!" cry the interns.
"i don't get it, "mh rasps to doc quantum, "he's an insane sex-crazed old letch, but the interns find him adorable!"
"oh," adds bixby, "there's an excellent chance of ... uh minotaurs up ahead. well, one minotaur."
after finishing his burger, and a few cups of wine, grabbing a flashlight, babu says, "everyone eat & keep your eyes peeled. I'm gonna scout out ahead."
after about 200 yards
"oh, nice," says babu.

"Well, this should be no problem," Babu says, reaching for the Gorgon's head.
"No," Mrs Singe says. "You need to do it without that."
"You're kidding, right?" Babu says.
"Now that the Gorgon is dead, the power remaining is limited," she says. "Every time you use it, it grows weaker.You will want to save it for bigger challenges."
"Bigger than this?" babu asks.
"Oh yes..."
"Well, here goes nothing," babu says, charging towards the minotaur.

babu crashes into the minotaur with a terrible thud.
"what the heck is that?!" cries the huntress.
she, williscorto, and mh move forward brandishing their weapons.
"as soon as babu is clear, or crumpled on the ground into a heap, begin attacking, "says mh.
pushing babu back, the minotaur yells, "hey! you're just gonna jump me without asking anything? what's wrong with you?!"
taken aback babu says," ummm, i'm sorry -- i guess."
"i am mῑνώταυρος. what's your name?"
"I'm babu baboon," says babu.
"well i have a series of riddles for you," says the minotaur. "have you got like a gift for me or anything? something nice?"
the huntress takes out a york peppermint patty, and walks over and gives it to him.
"now that's more like it!" exclaims the minotaur. "anything else?"
"i have a one and a half ounce cologne sample i stole from the bon marche," says mh, handing it to him.
"ummm, lovely!" says the minotaur sniffing, "your riddle is getting easier & easier!"

"I've got half a pouch of Big League Chew," Kenny says.
"I've got a coupon for no cover to get into Hefty's Nudie Bar," Buddy says.
"Ewww", the interns say.
"I've got a "Buy ten meals get the 10th one free" card at Meaty McGees," Taffy says. "And 9 holes are punched."
"Jackpot!" says the Minotaur. "So here's your riddle. What's black and white, black and white, and black and white."
"A nun falling down the stairs," babu says.
The minotaur stares at him, then says, "The correct answer was 'a penguin rolling down a hill', but yours is funnier. You may pass."

"that minotaur has really gone soft!" says mrs. singe.
"wheeee!!" they hear taffy yell as the minotaur runs around in circles with her on it's back.
"who wants to go next," asks the minotaur, a little out of breath.
"me! me!" yell sandee, amber, and skye.
"oh c'mon girls!" cries dakota, and says to the huntress, "there's no telling where that thing's been."
sniffing the air, bodraxx the captured mole-man says, "we gotta be gettin' close to the invisible fire-breathing snargle by now."
"wait, "mutters doc quantum, "is it invisible, or is the fire that comes out invisible?"
"oh goody!" exclaims mrs. singe, laughing & whirling around. "i forgot all about him!"

They continue to walk down the tunnel when they hear a noise. It sounds like blades scraping against the stone, "Whatever that is, I don't like the sound of those claws," Doc says.
"Me neither," the Huntress Diana says. "Lets see what we're dealing with. She pulls a paint bomb arrow out of her quiver and shoots. When the thing in question is revealed, she says, "Aw @%^$^..."
"It looks kind of pissed," MH.
"Yeah,' Babu agrees.

the all dive around a corner, as flames shoot from the creature's mouth.
"what are our options?" babu yells to mrs. singe.
she shurgs and says, "let's see, it's impervious to attack, you can't outrun it ... frankly i'm out of ideas."
suddenly bixby pushes the wall and a hidden passage opens up. "quick girls!" he exclaims, "get in here!"
as the interns run into the opening, williscorto see it and yells, "a passage! c'mon everybody!"
"what? you're coming too?" says bixby, frowning.
once inside, they push the wall closed, and can hear the snargle thundering past.
taking a torch from the wall, the huntress says, "all this crap was going on underneath your HQ for years and nobody ever noticed?"
"we were kinda busy, "mutters babu, embarrassed.
"oh, the area near the old singe mansion is just the entrance, "says mrs. singe. "above us is the thick brambly wilderness of 'west justice', past route-9 near where the stuckey's used to be."
"wait a second," says mh, "where are Kenny & buddy?"
above them kenny & buddy have managed to find their way inside the old stuckey's.
"i can't even beleive we founded this crate of perfectly preserved nut logs, "says kenny, his mouth full. "I hope them gurls don't show up. that taffy eats liek a wild aminal."
"well, "says buddy who is also eating, "maybe they'll be too busy a filling their pockets with gold to notice."

Kenny and Buddy are rejoicing in their newfound treasure when they hear a loud hissing. Kenny looks over the shelves and exclaims, "Oh crap!" The snargle has followed them up to the old Stuckeys.
The snargle's nails scrape against the linoleum as it sniffs and moves through the aisles. The gurgling rattle of its breathing sends chills down the spines of the two handymen.
Buddy grabs the box of Pecan logs preparing to lob them as weapons. Kenny grabs his Monkey Alliance communicator and presses the emergency distress button, desperate to summon the remaining Monkey Alliance members.

dakota, taffy and sandee come thru the hole where kenny and buddy crawled thru, and taffy yells, "hey i smell pecans! do you guys have nut logs?"
"yes!" exclaims kenny, " but they're mine! and we're a done about to get et' by that monster!"
seeing a cord hooked to a chute in the ceiling, dakota pulls it, and gallons of rubbery old caramel dump down from a dispenser onto the snargle, who screeches and rolls around, trapped like a fly in a spider web.
"quick guys, "yells dakota, "crawl back thru! that caramel won't hold that thing forever!"
grabbing the box of pecan-logs, kenny and buddy crawl thru the opening.
"what happened?" exclaims babu, as he & the other members meet them from below, responding to the signal.
"the gurls, has done saved us!" exclaims buddy.
"then can we have some pecan-logs, "asks taffy.
"well," says kenny, "these are rare & valuable, but I recon yall can split one."
buddy grabs the box from kenny, and hands it to the girls.
"kenny, you done got pecan-log fever!" says buddy.

"I'll take those pecan logs off your hands..." a creepy voice says from the darkened tunnel ahead of them. All they can see is a pair of red eyes glowing in the darkness. "Then, perhaps I'll take your hands."
"What the?" babu says.
"Who the hell is that?" MH exclaims.
"I dunno, but he aint getting our pecan logs!" Kenny says.

"well 'ello gov'nahs," the strange sparkly little man says with a raspy voice."
"ghhh! yells kenny," and he begins hurling an old bin of snack cakes at him.

"Now why you be lobbin' snack cakes at ol' Skelly Jack?" the sparkly little man says?"
"Who the heck are you?" Kenny exclaims.
"I jus' tolds you my name, Guvnah," Skelly Jack says.
"What do you want?" Babu asks.
"Its not what Skelly Jack wants but what Skelly Jack can do for you lot," the sparkly man says.
"What are you talking about?" Doc asks.
"Where the road ahead is going to take you, you'll be needing someone who can get you past the rough patches. Ol' Skelly Jack's your man... if'n you can meet his price."

"What price?" Babu asks. Skelly jack sniffs the air. "Is that the blissful aroma of Stuckeys Pecan Logs me sniffer sniffs?"
"Nothin' doin'!" Kenny says, trying to hide the box behind his back.
