As We Go Along
By: Amanda Laws 2/24/98
A man is standing on a bridge, with a small crowd of people. He steps up to the microphone and begins his speech. "Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby dedicate this........." The man is interrupted by Micky rushing by him breaking the ribbon. Close behind him is Mike, Peter, and Davy. Close behind them is a herd of angry people. Micky takes his jacket off and jumps up onto the ledge of the bridge. He looks back to see his friends catching up. He looks over the large body of water and jumps. The three get to the edge and look over in shock. Davy looks back to the mob, then quickly jumps, followed by Peter then Mike. The mob watches them as they fall into the water.
The Monkees sink slowly deeper into the water. Suddenly they are in a big black box . They turn around to see a young man with dark brown hair and brown eyes, sitting in the corner wearing jeans a gray t-shirt and a brown jacket. In front of him is a single candle setting off a faint light. Mike steps forward "excuse me, but who are you?" The man looks up and smiles, and calmly answers "I am Propinquity" Micky rolls his eyes and asks with a chuckle,"oh wait, let me guess. You've just begun to care?" Propinquity looks at Micky and says,"You think this is funny now...." Davy pipes up angrily "Funny? We're in a big black box and you're talking about funny? I'm out of here!" Davy turns and rips through the one black wall which turns out to be paper. The other three follow.
They walk out into a basement wearing all black and black gloves. They stalk across the basement and up the stairs. Opening the door they walk out into a lobby. A short chubby balding man is waiting for them. "Ready?" he asks with a smile. "How do we know you'll keep up your end of the deal?" Mike asks suspiciously. "Of course, now go get um" the man answer. The Monkees walk up to a door and open it. Behind the door is a huge ball room. Inside people are talking and dancing. Davy looks to Micky "What does she look like?" Micky pulls out a picture of a woman with long brown hair and green eyes. "Ok lets spread out." Mike suggests. The four split up, Micky heads right over to a girl with blond hair and starts trying to put the moves on her. Peter to busy looking at all the art work on the walls bumps right into the woman. "Oh I'm sorry i didn't see you" he says apoligaticly. She smiles "Its alright" Peters eyes widen "Your Katrina aren't you?"He asks. Her face goes straight "Peter Tork agent 006 I assume" "Yes its me we need to move lets get the others" He answers.
After getting Mike and Davy, they pull Micky off the blond and they go into the back room. Mike look at her "Do you have the package?" he asks. She hands him the package. The four head out the back to find 5 men in black waiting by a black car and 6 others spread threw out the lot with guns. "Great, how we gonna get to the car?" Micky mumbles. "We don't" Mike answers as he pulls out a small remote. The other three plug there ears and Mike pushes a button. "Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye" echoes from the car(Like at the end of Star Collector") as the 5 standing by it looks inside curiously. The car explodes, the men in the parking lot run over to the blazing car in shock. Mike pushes another button and a driver less Monkee mobile squeals into the parking lot. One by one they jump in and ride off.............
They pull up in front of a dock, the Beatles are waiting for them by a yellow submarine. "Hello Monkees" Paul says with a smile. "Hey, whats going on?" Micky asks. A door opens and Ringo steps out. "Hello guys ready to go?" he asks "Where you going?" Davy asks. "You mean were are WE going" John politely corrects Davy. "After you" Ringo says gesturing them into the submarine. They all get into the submarine. They sink down into the sea. "Where are we going?" Peter asks. John smiles "to have tea with the octopus" he answers. "Tea with an octopus? You guys have lost your marbles haven't you?" Mike asks. "No there right here" Ringo answers holding up a bag of marbles. "Ok, were there" George announces. The submarine emerges in a cave.
They all get out, and there is a table set for 8. They all sit and prepare there tea to liking. "Where's the Octopus?" Micky asks. Ringo points to the water "Here he comes" The Monkees look over to the water as an octopus emerges. The Monkees are speechless as it picks up a cup of tea drinks it and then goes back under water. Paul holds up a plate full of crumpets "Crumpets any one?" he asks. "No thanks...Where's the bathroom?" Micky asks. "No bathroom, but if you have to go that bad...go over there." George answers pointing to a sub-cave. Micky stands and walks over to the sub-cave. He looks back for a moment and walks in..................
A girl with golden hair is running threw a forest. She stops and dashes behind a bush in a small clearing. Micky runs into the clearing. "Oh come on don't hide!" he calls out as he looks around. the girl sneaks up behind him and pokes his shoulder. He spins around to see her, and rubs her hair affectionately. She smiles and turns her dress flowing. "Say you'll never leave me sir Dolenz" He walk up to the back of her, and puts his arms around her. "Nothing could keep me from you" He turns her around and gently kisses her lips. "Would you like something to eat?" He asks careingly. "Yes please" she answers with a nod. "I say an apple tree back there" he says heading down the path as the girl sits smiling.
Micky is heading back to the clearing with the apples when a scream is heard. He drops them and runs to the clearing. He gets there just in time to see the girl being carried away by a big red dragon. "Micky! Help!" she screams struggling. He jumps onto a horse and follows them to a cave. The dragon puts her up on a cliff and turns to Micky. Micky unsheaths his sword "Give her to me dragon, and ill let you live!" he demands. The dragon swings his tail at Micky. Micky jumps barely escaping and slashes the its tail. The dragon growls as fire pours from his mouth as Micky leaps behind a large rock. He climbs up a cliff and pushes a good sized rock over onto the dragons head. The dragon falls over. Micky jumps down onto the dragons chest and plunges his sword into its chest. The dragon goes limp as Micky jumps down, and climbs up to the girl. "Are you ok?" he asks "Now that your here I am." she says. Micky moves in for a killer kiss as Mike, Davy and Peter walk threw and pull him away. "Hey!" he yells as he is dragged away................
They walk out into a futuristic room. A small robot is standing there waiting. "Its about time you get here guys, Wizard Glic has unleashed a monster in the down town area." it informs them. "Its morphine time!" Mike yells They morph into The Monkee rangers. Micky white, Davy green, Peter red, and Mike green.. The land in front of a giant fortune cookie monster. Davy Hits it with a banana rang. Followed by Micky's famous Karate chop. Mike walks up to the over sized fortune cookie. "Tag your it!" he yells as he runs toward the bridge. The fortune cookie follows and corners Mike. "I got you now" it growls evilly. Peter come charging down the bridge and pushes him into the water. The cookie softens in the water and falls apart. They start jumping up and down "We did it!" they yell.
They unmorph, and walk to the side of a highway. "She's Late" Peter wines. "Don't worry she will be here" Davy reassures him. A girl with long golden brown hair green eyes wearing jeans and a purple halter top, in a little black Volkswagen convertible pulls up. "Hey guys sorry I'm late" she explains. "Its ok Amanda we understand" Micky says with a smile. The four of them get in and they head down the highway. They pull up in front of the beach house. "Ok see ya guys later" The four go inside, and Amanda drives away. They go inside and go to bed.
