Return To The Previous Story - The Torry Birthday Special
It was the day before Christmas and Jack, Bill, and Kenny were thinking of how to spoil Christmas for their enemies. They knew they were going to be at Mr. Trim’s lab.
Meanwhile at Mr. Trim’s lab Mr. Trim said, “They’re 14 of us here. Frisky and Ann can’t sing yet so the other 12 of us can each sing on verse in The 12 Days of Christmas. I’ll start.”
So they started singing. After they finished singing they had some lunch.
Meanwhile Jack, Bill, and Kenny had an idea but they needed the travel machine to do it so they had a plan to get it. So while they were eating Jack grabbed the travel machine and went to New York where they found Jason a friend of Kenny’s.
“Who are your two friends here,” he said.
“Oh yeah! My friends are Jack and Bill. That’s Bill in the middle,” said Kenny.
So they talked about what to do when Jason said, “Take all the presents Christmas day.”
“That’s a swell idea,” said Kenny.
So they went back to Jesterville. They saw Dan finished dinner.
“Let’s hide,” Bill whispered.
Dan went into the hall and was tripped and put in a steel box. They then ran and left the travel machine behind them.
Later after they all finished Mr. Trim said, “Where’s Dan?”
“Here’s a note saying, ‘steal box’,” said John.
So Mr. Trim took the travel machine to the steel box.
“Sorry I only wrote 2 words,” said Dan.
“You used the wrong steel,” Mr. Trim said.
Then they went back. While Jason told Jack, Bill, and Kenny that they’d take the presents 6 o’clock tomorrow morning.
“O.K. we’ll meet here at 5,” said Kenny.
“Let’s go to sleep early HERE!” said Jack.
“We’ll start with Torry,” said Bill.
Meanwhile at Mr. Trim’s lab Mr. Trim came back with Dan.
“Now for a little music,” said Mrs. Trim.
The hours seemed to take forever to pass by. Finally it was time for the big dinner.
“Lord, we know you loved the world so much that you gave your only son in the form of a tiny baby and you knew that instead of loved he’d be persecuted but now he sitteth on the right hand side of the father almighty. We thank you Lord,” prayed Joseph.
“Now pass the turkey please,” said Sarah.
So they ate the big dinner while Bill, Jason, Jack, and Kenny slept.
Later Torry said slowly, “I’m f-fu-ull-ll.”
“I’m going to bed,” said Dan.
“Me too,” said Joseph.
So they both went to bed and Sarah put Ann in her cradle 5 minutes later Victor, Randy, and Torry joined them. Then Sarah. Then Amy and Frisky. Then Betty and John and 1 hour after Dan and Joseph, Mr. Trim, Mrs. Trim and Bob went to sleep too.
Early the next morning Kenny got up he looked at the clock 3:59 then he got dressed then Jason got up at 4:05 and got dressed at 4:35 Bill got up and at 4:51 so did Jack. They waited ‘till 5 o’clock for their meeting.
“It’s 5:00 now for our meeting,” Jason said. “We will sneak in with the no sound ray Kenny stole.”
“Good idea,” said Kenny.
“Super!” Bill exclaimed.
“Let’s see how they enjoy this Christmas,” said Jack.
“We’ll see,” they all said then they started to laugh in a mean way.
“It’s 6 o’clock,” said Jason. “Now let’s go.”
So they did then they went in Torry’s room to take the presents Dan hid under Torry’s bed. Jason found the crystal.
“What’s this,” he said.
“Maybe an early opened present. Take it,” said Kenny.
They got all the presents when Joseph started coming.
“Quick, run!” Kenny exclaimed.
They made it just in time.
“We did it,” Bill whispered.
“I know,” Jack replied. “Now lets take it back to OUR lab.”
Meanwhile all but Dan were up. Then Dan got up too. They all started singing Hark the Hearold Angels Sing. When Bill, Jason, Jack, and Kenny heard this Jack, Bill, and Kenny were outraged.
At Mr. Trim’s lab Joseph and Sarah said, “They didn’t take all the gift of love and friendship.”
“We do too,” said the rest.
“Joseph and Sarah,” started Mr. Trim. “Do you remember that your father was killed in a car accident 2 weeks ago.”
“Yes,” said Joseph and Sarah.
“You were the only ones we could save,” Mr. Trim said again. “And do you remember that your mother died after Ann was born?”
“Yes,” said Sarah.
“Yes,” said Joseph.
“Well I’ve talked these two into being you new parents,” said Mr. Trim.
They went and hugged them while their new mother picked up Ann.
“That goes for you too,” she said.
This made Jack, Bill, and Kenny even more outraged.
“Now! How do we stop them from having a good time?” Kenny yelled.
“Why don’t we attack them?” said Jack.
“That’s a good idea,” said Bill patting Jack on the back.
Then Bill, Jason, and Kenny went to their lab.
“Come on,” said Jason, Bill, and Kenny.
So they did to think how to completely spoil their Christmas. They thought for awhile.
“I got it,” said Kenny.
“What is it?” asked Bill.
“Yeah, what,” said Jack.
Jack, Jason, and Bill listened while Kenny said, “We could robots to attack them and shoot to kill. Then when they’re all dead we steal Mr. Trim’s inventions.”
“Then,” continued Bill. “We’d be rich.”
“Yes,” said Jack. “R-r-rich.”
Jack, Bill, and Kenny were pleased with the idea. So they started making the robots right away.
“Beware Mr. Trim, Torry, and the rest,” Jack, Bill, and Kenny said.
They would attack them at 1 o’clock. They thought that nothing could stop them.
“That’s mean,” said Jason. “What about the singing, and the presents, and the...?”
For once Jason looked on the good side of things and returned the presents. He told them how he stole the presents. And a bunch of robots would attack them at 1:00.
“It’s 12:45!” cried Amy.
“Run,” said Jason.
“No,” said Mr. Trim. “We’ll use the travel machine.”
So Torry, Mr. Trim, and Jason went there.
“There’s the robot control,” said Jason.
Torry got behind Jason and turned into a chair. Jason saw him and threw him at the main controls.
“Where’s Torry?” asked Jason.
He looked behind him. Then Torry turned back.
“Here I am,” said Torry.
“Are you all right?” asked Jason. “You look like I threw you into it.”
Then they went back and Jack, Bill, and Kenny had the rest tied up. Weak as Torry was he was caught too. Jason kicked Kenny then jumped on him. Bill tried to leave but Jason tripped him. Jack was going to get the gun and get him but Jason knocked the gun away and got it. Forcing Jack, Bill, and Kenny to leave away from Mr. Trim’s lab.
“You’ll be gone when 1:00 comes,” said Jack.
“That’s right,” said Bill and Kenny.
Mr. Trim untied the rest.
“Hooray for Jason! Hooray!” they all cried.
“Thanks,” said Jason. “But I have to return to New York.”
“Could you stay for 1 more song?” said Sarah.
“O.K.” said Jason.
So they did.
