"What?" Max asks. In her best New York cabee dialect, Lucy says, "It's a New Yorker thing." Max, puzzled, sees where Hunter set the cans down. "I have an idea," Max says. He then unleashes his shoelaces, and ties it around the can. He then opens his window, and throws the can out the back. However, he grabs on to the string, as the two Rovers laugh, knowing what they are doing. We then go inside the car behind them, and see a guy driving two cats home from a shop at a pet store. "Do you guys spend 60% of your day sleeping or going?" the man asks, "$100 for kitty litter!! Makes me want to get a dog almost." The cats then get mad, and their fur ruffles up, so the man replies, "Maybe not a dog." Then, he sees a can hit his front window. "What the..." he says, as the can moves off his window shield and then goes off it, continuously. The guy then loses control, and crashes into another car going the other way, followed by 2 other cars. Seeing the cats, Max and Lucy laugh, and say "It's funny how things work out sometimes." We then fast forward to the next day, where we see Hunter reading over the headlines of the local paper as the other Rovers are awakening. He then reads them off. "'Rovers Wreck HungryGuy, Appear On Commercial' and 'Accident Caused By Mysterious Flying Can'?" Max and Lucy, passing by, hear the second headline, and know immediatley what they've done. "Ooops," Lucy says, as the two tip-toe around Hunter, and Lucy grabs a nice large jug of tea. As Hunter begins to read the article, Lucy "accidentaly" spills the tea over the paper, leaning forward towards it. "Oh, I'm sorry Hunter," Lucy says. "Lucy!! Look what you've done!" Hunter shouts, as tea runs all over him. Maxine then walks by, and Hunter's attention is diverted, as she still is walking around with the tape on her mouth. She then jumps up on the table that Hunter is sitting at, and begs Hunter to help take the tape off her darling little face. "Sorry Maxine," Hunter replies, "But you crossed the line." Then, Exile enters the room, and o!
nce of those audiences that applauds when a star character enters the room does this for Exile, as the Rovers look around to see where it's coming from. Exile then pulls a small tape recorder out of his pocket. "He he he," Exile says, "I gotski comerades." "Morning Exile," Hunter says. "Morning Exile," Maxine says, still mimmicking, even though her words are still hard to understand. As Hunter starts to get up to get a cloth to clean up the table from the spilled tea, Exile stops him. "Hunter," he says, motoning for him to come to him. Hunter then sees Exile with the paper in hand, and Exile asks him, "Read about the flying soda cans?" "I started to, but Lucy spilled tea over my paper," Hunter says, "That dog." Exile then points to some text, and Hunter reads 'One eyewitness reports to have seen a white string coming from out of a car with the soda cans on it. The cans were a serious distraction to the car behind them, and they caused a serious wreck. The liscence plate number on the car has been identified as RVRLAND1.' "The Land Rover!" Exile exclaims. Hunter shocked, knows automaticaly who the two trouble makers are. "Lucy and Max," Hunter says. Hunter then picks up their scent, and starts chasing after them. Then, when he smells them real close, he gets on all fours, and dodges around a corner at them. But, instead of them being transdogmafied as Junior Rovers, they are their normal doggy selves. Hunter, puzzled, asks, "Why are you guys de-transdogmafied?" He then listens to Max whimper, in dog, "We don't know. It wasn't the transdogmafier. We were just playing hide-and-go seek with the other Rovers, and poof, we were back to being dogs." "Weird," Hunter says. "Weird indeed," Lucy barks. "Welp," Hunter says, pondering, "I don't want to transdogmafiy you guys before I punish you. Since I know you, and you'll probally go online or watch TV and all that jazz." Max then rolls over, and plays dead. "What's your problem?" Hunter asks. "You said...THE WORD," Max whines. Hunter, confused, asks Lucy for some he!
lp. "He's still upset about the Jazz getting home court advantage," Lucy responds. "Karl Malone, poo," Max whines. "Oh," Hunter says, "Well, go on ahead..." The Junior Rovers then run into their various transdogmafiers that were brought over from JRHQ in case of an emergency. The Junior Rovers then enter the machines, but the transdogmafication fails, and the dogs exit as their normal dog selves. Hunter, frustrated, just stands there thinking for a minute, until he gets a flash. He then turns to Max and asks, "Do I have a lightbulb over my head?" "You have an idea?" Max asks in return. "No, I'm really asking you if I have a light bulb over my head," Hunter says sarcasticaly, "Round up some Rovers and follow me." Five minutes later, we see Hunter waiting at the Power Rover, before being greeted by Max and Lucy, as well as all the other Junior Rovers (yes, even Cody) and Exile. "It's Junior Rover hour!!" Cody proclaims, but right as the Junior Rovers are about to howl, Hunter puts the worst weapon on Cody, tickling!! Cody, an easy tickle target, starts giggling like crazy. When Hunter has tortured him enough, he says, "Let's hit the road, Rovers!" They all then howl, as they hop in the plane. "But why couldn't I start us off?" Cody asks, "I always say 'It's Junior Rover Hour! The hour of power!'" "Don't worry about it, Cod," Hunter says, "All's fair in leadership and war." "Whatever," Cody says. Hunter then starts up the plane, and the Rovers head off. Now, finally, Hunter reveals his plan. "Ok," Hunter says, pioliting the plane meanwhile, "We're going to track down General Parvo to speciesmafiy you two (points to Max and Lucy) back into Road Rovers, and then will track down whoever made this Lart stuff, and show them that our bite's worse than our bark." Exile then chuckles, and says, "It's a shame weird boy missed this." Exile, shocked, then says, "Oh no!! I'm starting to feel grief for him!" "What's wrong with you, Ex?" Wyboo asks. "I have no earthly," Exile says, as he then smacks his head. Hunter, seein!
g him angry at himself, says, "Take it easy pal. Why don't you find something on the radio for us to listen to?" Exile then turns to his favorite station, the Opera Network!! All Operas, all the time. As he gets up and starts singing to the beat of the opera, Hunter quickly changes the channel to a more contemporary channel. "To the Land of Funk," from "First Kid" starts playing as soon as they change channels. Exile is frustrated, but everyone else isn't. The Junior Rovers then get up, and do the first ever Road Rover Jeff Story Dance Number (don't you wish you had KROV now?). But, since you can't see this, here's a description:
Their dance features such moves as the "Electric slide," parts of the dreaded "Macarena," and some original moves such as the move where Cody does a cartwheel and falls hard where guys don't want to fall, Wyboo's jumping up and down disco move, and Maxine's do a twirl but make sure your curls are still in proper order. The dance number then finishes, and we see the Power Rover flying away into the morning sky. We then pick them up with the sun setting, all looking tired and exhausted after a hard day's work. "Well, we looked at where we found the speciesmafiers near Denver, we had the Space Rovers do a quick re-con in space, and we checked some large cities, but still, no Parvo reports," Hunter says, "Any ideas?" "Yes," Lizzie says, "Let's get something to eat!" "How can you think of eating at a time like this, comerade Elizabeth?" Exile asks. "Easily," Lizzie replies, as her tummy grumbles. "You don't know this girl," Maxine says, "She eats food, she sleeps food, she drinks food! Well, maybe she doesn't drink food, but still!" "Well, excuse me for having cherry pie fantasies and apple pie dreams," Lizzie replies, frustrated. "Does anyone know how this conversation started?" Exile asks. "A long term memory is something I lack," Hunter replies. "I don't get it 'unter," Exile says, "You can remember that dog liscence joke, but you can't remember how conversations started." "I'm just special I guess," Hunter replies, "Anyway, I asked you all what we should do to track down Parvo." "Oh, that," Max barks, "I don't know." "And it's not like we can pick something up on the IRN about it," Cody says, "Everyone's at headquarters." "Then I think the only thing we can do is see if there are any breaking stories on the news on Parvo's wherabouts," Hunter says. "But isn't this, against our Rover responsibilites?" Maxine asks. "No," Hunter replies, "The speciesmafier was our Master's to start with. It was his property, so it belongs to him. We have the right to get it back." "Oh, I didn't know," Maxine replies. Exile the!
n flips on the news, and the Rovers are just in time to hear the top news story at 6. "The nation is still baffled by what took place nearly an hour ago in San Antonio," the announcer says, "Reportetly, a man in a metal suit with evil dogs working for him pillaged valuable materials from the Alamo, many of which are found nowhere else but the war memorial in southern Texas, such as Davy Crocket's racoon fur hat and an award for service in the Mexican-American War that was recoverd and enshired in the museum. The National Guard couldn't even stop the army from its horrible objective." As another announcer starts talking, the Rovers have as many as clues as they need. "Metal suit, evil dogs working for him," Hunter says, "Looks like the general is 'Deep in the Heart of Texas.'" "But, why?" Lizzie asks. "For his new world order," Cody replies. "NWO?!?! Oy, comerades, I can not see how you can watch such a thing," Exile replies, "It's as fake as David Letterman's hair!" "No Exile," Hunter says, "We're talking about Parvo's new world order." "Ohhhhh," Exile says, "So he'll control wrestling? All those people will have to wear metal all over their bodies!! And the referree will be one of his cano-mutants, and..." "No, Exile, no," Hunter starts, but then, giving up, says "Forget it. Let's go to San Antonio." We then see the plane entering the San Antonio skyline, with the Alamodome, the Alamo, Riverwalk, and buildings below them. The Rovers then land in a field by the Alamo, where one of those "Police Line: Do Not Cross" thingamaggiers is up. Hunter, goes up to it, and picks up a scent. "It's Parvo," Hunter says, "I got his scent." "Is he here?" Exile asks. Hunter sniffs again, "No," Hunter says, sniffing again, "He went...east." "Northeast or southeast?" Wyboo asks. "Northeast," Hunter replies. "East northeast or west northeast?" Wyboo asks. "West northeast," Hunter replies. "South west northeast or north west northeast?" "What am I, Atlas King?" Hunter asks, "All I can pick up is he went northeast." Lizzie then!
pulls out a map, and points to the principle cities to the northeast, Washington, New York, and Boston. "This is like asking Dennis Rodman not to dye his hair anymore," Exile says, "Impossible." Then, a policeman walks up and talks into a walkie-talkie. Hunter, right next to him, hears the following conversation: "So, you saw the alledged stealers leaving 1 hour ago?" "Yes," a fuzzy reply says on the other side of the walkie-talkie, "We had a plane follow them wherever they were headed. We tracked them to Boston, but lost them in the big city. They're probally wrecking havoc at MIT right now." The man then walks off, and Hunter asks the Rovers, "Hear that gang?" "Sure didn't," Lizzie replies, as the other Rovers shake their heads "No." "Well, that guy just told us where Parvo is wrecking havoc now," Hunter replies, "We're off to bean-town!" "The capital of Colombia?" Maxine asks. "No, Boston!" Hunter says. "Oh," Maxine replies. The Rovers then hop back in the Power Rover, and head to the capitol of Massachutches, Boston. We then see the Power Rover over Boston, and Wyboo recognizes the place. "We've been here before!" she says. "Sure have!" Hunter says, "We started our summer vacation last year right here!" "I wish we could do that again," Wyboo says, "Then all we Rovers could have a lot of fun together all summer!" "Why couldn't we?" Hunter asks. "You mean, we could go on another summer vacation, all around the counrty, together?" Maxine asks. "Sure," Hunter replies, "It's allright with me too." "Me two comerades," Exile adds, "I love being Road Rover and going on summer vacations!" "Same here," Cody replies, "We all agree." "I'll start planning it after we finish this mission," Hunter replies, "It will be great!" (Yup, this is a promotion. Figure it out? Probally did. Well, anyways, The Road Rovers: 2nd Annual Summer Vacation will be "broadcast" on this website every Monday beginning June 8th! This will be a non-story event, but still, the Rovers North will not appear in it unless or until they return. !
To read this weekly, visit Summer Vacation ! The site isn't open right now, but should be opened around May 24th. This has been a promotion for the Unofficial Land of the Road Rovers. Back to the show.) The Rovers then turn their attention to the present, and their main goal, finding out where Parvo is. Hunter then decides to check out MIT (Massachutches Institute of Technology, one of the most prestigious colleges in the world) since the policeman mentioned it, and so he heads there. As he flies over the college, Exile does indeed spot Parvo's plane, parked in a hard angle to see, but for Exile, there is no such thing as a bad angle of vision. "There it is comerades," Exile replies, "Let's go get Max and Lucy speciesmafied!" "But we have another mission too," Hunter adds, "To recover the valuable items they took from the Alamo in San Antonio! But let's make you guys Road Rovers again!" We then see Hunter attempt to land the plane, but instead, he winds up crashing into trees behind the school, creating a loud crash. "I wonder if they teach pilot's ed here," Exile says, as he looks out his window at the plane and sees the dents covering the car. We then go inside MIT, and see Parvo walking through the building. He then sees an Urkel look alike walking past him, and motions to his cano-mutants to stop him. The cano-mutants follow suit, and the kid asks, "Yes.....?" "How would you like to rule the world?" Parvo asks the kid, patting him on the shoulder. "That would be cool!" he says in a nerdy voice, "Can we make eating cheese required every day?" "Sure," Parvo says. "And can we make all bullies, all those big tall bad guys who pick on people like me, can we make them eat cheese all day?" "I'm not so sure about that," Parvo says, recognizning how similar that comment is to him, "But with your intellegence and my strength, why we could rule the world! And we could have complete world domination!" "But I'm pretty strong too," the kid says, walking off with Parvo. "I bet," Parvo says. We then see the Rovers beh!
ind a bush (they like those bushes!) looking at the plane, that is heavily guarded by cano-mutants, 5 of them to be exact. "How are we going to break through that wall of dog?" Lizzie asks. "It's taken care of," Hunter says. Suddenly, we see a plane land right near the Rovers, but where the cano-mutants can not see the plane, and out come Spirit and Julia, who, are the best looking Rover girls of them all (but Star is a close 3rd. Just thought I'd tell you that :-) ) "We brought the cans of Orange Cola like you asked us," Spirit says, entergeticaly, and as always, friendly. Hunter then gets handed 4 cans of Lart Orange, which he gives out to himself, Wyboo, Cody, and Julia. The four then exit from the bush, and quietly sneak up on the cano-mutants, which there are 4 of, as they put the cans in their pockets. They then quickly circle around the plane, and start to come up on the 4. They then pull out cans of Orange Cola, and as they are right behind them, they open the cans and empty the liquid on the cano-mutants' heads. The cano-mutants then look up to see four dogs running off, that they recognize as Rovers. But, being the four fastest Rovers, the cano-mutants really don't have a fighting chance. They attempt to chase them down though, leaving the plane open. Lucy and Max then lead the way into the plane, followed by Exile, Spirit, Maxine, and Lizzie, who are in charge of speciesmafying them back into dogs. But, right as they enter the plane, out come Parvo and the Urkel guy, after eating a brief dinner. "That was a nice exchange of ideas," the boy says. "You think about cheese too much," Parvo says. "I sleep cheese!! I eat cheese! I drink cheese! Ok, maybe I don't drink cheese, but you get the point. And anyway, it's like I always say (to the tune of the Willy Wonka "Candyman Can" song) 'The cheeseman can cause he mixes it with milk and makes the world taste gouda.'" "Check into the 'Please help me, I don't have a life department' here at MIT," Parvo says. "They have a big one of those here," the boy re!
plies, "Most people here spend 168 hours a week thinking only about one thing...school." "Well, don't you too?" Parvo asks. "No," the boy replies, "Cheese, remember." "Forget it," Parvo says, "You've just been an annoyance and a waste of time. Get out of my sight. You'll never rule the world!" The boy then walks away crying, but Parvo, with almost no symphathy, just watches him walk off crying. Meanwhile, inside the plane, the Rovers are fast at work at trying to change the Rovers back into Rovers. Exile, the brains of the operation, is at work on the controls. "Let's try, this button!" Exile says, pressing it. It then changes a control from "Cano-mutant to "Alligator." "We are not amazing alligators," Exile says, "We're Road Rovers!" He then presses it, and presses it, and presses it until it reads "Cano-Sapien." He then hits a red button, and the process begins. Then, out pop the Rovers, as Rovers!! They then look themselves over for a minute, and then high-five Exile and his helpers. "Looks like Parvo wasn't smart enough to change it to eliminate cano-sapien," Max says. "Hunter told me that this was the Master's original invention," Exile says, "Parvo only knows the two buttons that I know obviously. He only knows the basics. Who knows what all this machine can do?" Then, unfortunatley, in comes the worst person to enter in this situation, Parvo. "What are you doing?!?!" he asks angrily. Exile replies with a blast of cold at Parvo, but Parvo dives away from it, avoiding it. As Parvo gets back up, Lucy tries to karate kick Parvo, but Parvo avoids her as well, and Lucy falls down. We then see Hunter, Cody, Wyboo, and Julia back from a nice brisk run. They then look into the plane, and see Parvo looking over Lucy. "Help us guys!" they say. "What are we to do?" Wyboo asks. "I'm out of ideas," Cody says, frustrated. Hunter simply shrugs. Then, Julia whistles, and out of nowhere comes Muzzle!! "Muzzle!!" Hunter, Wyboo, and Cody exclaim. "How'd he get here?" Wyboo asks. "We brought him along in case of an emer!
gency." "Then you can say it," Hunter says. "It would be a pleasure," Julia replies. She then unstraps Muzzle, and says, "Let's Muzzle 'em!" Muzzle then flies into the plane, and starts to beat up Parvo.
Even More Tasty Orange Cola!
