The Itch of the Golden Nit Page #4

---

What?! How is this supposed

to help me blend in?

I'm Sparkles, the mysterious fish.

I sparkle all day and night,

glistening around the ocean,

making it nice and bright.

Huh-huh.

Coo-ee, hell-o-o-o! Oh, no!

The sun can't die,

for carrot's sake!

Why does it always have to be

bad news these days?

They're just talking piffle.

I've been reading

this book about humans

and apparently they're so arrogant.

The golden fishfinger! Yes!

Uh, can we help you?

Umm, uh, hello,

I was just...swimming.

He looks like my dad.

What you got in your case, then?

And who are you exactly?

Umm, I'm a food inspector,

yes, for uh, Cornwall County.

And I need to take this fishfinger

back to the office for...tests.

What kind of tests? Uh,

important ones. This fish is off.

Good day to you all. Uh-oh. Ooooh,

what's that? It's so-o-o cute!

Can I hold it? I saw it first.

G-g-g-get them away from me,

get them away from me!

No! Don't! Ow! Stop that! Excuse me,

madam! Excuse me, hello? Ow!

Whoo!

Haar-ha-ha-ha-ha haaaarrrrr!

Well done, laddie, didn't think

you had it in yer. Uh, thanks.

You never did tell us how you

ended up on the checkout at Super Co.

Well, this may come as a shock,

looking at such a fine specimen

as myself, but I'm not all good.

What do you mean?

Well, for ten minutes every week,

I'm cursed with being bad.

So I had to get another job.

Have you been, um, bad this week?

Not that I've noticed. So you

could be bad in, like, two minutes.

Oh, yes. Totally evil.

Cool. Oh, no.

I can see where this is going.

There it is! Oh, who would have

thought it? Our Beanie, a hero.

Loser, more like.

I'm so going to get that nit back

and everyone will be so impressed.

Get us there, Fireface.

Finding a worm-hole

into another dimension

isn't easy, you know.

And don't call me Fireface.

Fireface! Fireface! Fireface!

Got it! Whoooaaahhh!

Land ahoy! Land ahoy!

Beanie, please, say the mission

is going well.

The mission is going well.

Do you mean that? No.

We're all going to die!

Aaarrrgghhh!

We've run aground!

You're on your own, me hearties.

Fear not, my rainbow spaceship

can take us there.

Whooaaahhh!! Ah! Doh!

Easy, Jumbo.

Ah-ha! Feast your eyes on this baby.

Goodbye, Captain Iron Ears,

and all your crew.

Farewell, me hearties.

I'd come with you, but I need a poo.

Uuuuh! Uuuuh! Uuuuh!

Time for plan B.

Oooff!

No! Get off! Get me down!

Let's get out of here!

THRRRMP!

Shhh, what was that?

Ah, er, sorry, that was me.

Unnnnhh!

GROWLING:

Hey! Now that wasn't me.

Aarrghh! It's Rub Rub Sky! Shhh,

whatever you do, don't wake her.

PHONE ALARM BLARES

Ooh, sorry, sorry, sorry!

Whooaaahhh!! Ooooff!
