The musical

She was thrown forward as the bus screeched to a halt. As she recovered from the shock, she looked around her and she blushed. Everyone was laughing at her. Her boyfriend, Hops, helped her up back into her seat. Pocky quickly fastened her seat belt and tried to fall asleep again.

Hops asked her, "Are you all right, sweetheart?" but he asked a little too loudly and Barrs woke up. Barrs slapped Hops and shouted, ""What did you say to my Pocky?"

Hops glared at Barrs. "FOOL! Pocky is my heart's own!" He straightened his tie and continued, "Pocky shall not be patronised by you. Shove off!"

Barrs was very offended. "Don't talk such silly rubbish!" he shouted, waking his bus buddy, Michelle, up. She was startled to find him shouting. She grabbed his arm and hugged it.

Barrs coloured and pulled away. He got up and went to sit next to his best friend, Leather. Unfortunately for him, Leather was too busy flirting with his girlfriend, Lotus.

Barrs was quite bothered. He switched over to sit with Miss Match, who was sleeping with her mouth open. Soon Barrs fell asleep also.

Peanut and Soda were watching all that was happening from the 4 back seats. At first, Gio and Dong were sitting with them, but Peanut and Soda had forced them to sit on the floor because Peanut and Soda wanted to stretch their legs out on the seats while waiting for their pedicures to dry.

This made Tulip very angry. "Why are you sitting on the floor?" she demanded. Dong pointed at Peanut and Soda, who were sprawled lazily on the 4 back seats. Tulip sighed and let Dong sit on her lap.

Gio, in the meantime, was fast asleep on the floor, dreaming of ice cream. He was sleep-talking. He kept saying, "The unicorn stole my ice cream! Quick, get it back!"

Suddenly, there was a loud roar. The bus driver screamed. "It's a Balrog!"

"Noooooo!!! I have too many things to live for!" BFF squealed in fright. "I need to get a girlfriend!" He started to sob buckets of salty water. Miss Match started to scream 'I'm Yours' by Jason Mraz, and BFF was just joining in when there was an even louder roar.

It was the Balrog, crying tears of joy. "At last, my daughter, getting a boyfriend! I have waited for years and years!" it said. The bus driver stopped the bus and ran out, flailing his arms. All the passengers looked at each other, wondering what to do now.

The Balrog got closer to the bus. "Sesame!" Señorita screamed, "Sesame!" Sesame rushed to her, asking her what was the matter. "I am scared," she said, pouting. Sesame blushed and went to hug her. He, too, was afraid, but now Señorita needed him, and he was going to make everything all right.

Pedro stared in disgust as his ex-girlfriend hugged Sesame tenderly. He turned away angrily and patted his current girlfriend, Mint, on the shoulder. Pedro was not over Señorita yet. He started humming 'A Little Too Not Over You' by David Archuleta. Soon Barrs joined in, and Pita started to cry. They could all relate to the song.

Pita was in love with Mint, but she had fallen for Pedro. He stared sadly at her and turned his face away, overwhelmed with emotion. Señorita went over to Pita to comfort him. This made Sesame very angry. He stomped over and slapped Pita.

Pita was enraged. He didn't even want Señorita near him, let alone comforting him. And Sesame was now slapping him? He stood up and punched Sesame with a great force.

Señorita now felt so good about herself, because she thought that they were fighting over her. Pita glared at Señorita and stalked off, feeling very perturbed. He sat down in the front and sighed in sadness.

Meanwhile, behind Pita, Tassels and Buttons sat together, whispering and giggling. They didn't even notice Peanut and Soda eavesdropping on them. "You're so cute," Buttons was saying, "You're so sweet." Tassels smiled. "No, you're cute. You're sweet."

They proceeded to cuddle flirtatiously. Peanut accidentally spilled her nail polish on Buttons while trying to control her laughter. Soda burst into laughter and Tassels and Buttons gasped. They sprang apart in embarrassment; they were both blushing.

Soda fell onto the ground, her face red with laughter. Peanut dropped her nail polish and fell onto the bottle. Gio began screaming. "Oh Soda! Is thy beautiful visage unharmed?" Soda recovered from her giggles and looked at Gio, disgusted.

Gio gasped and ran over to hug her. Peanut rolled in her nail polish, gasping as she laughed. Soda pulled away from Gio and poked Peanut. "Ow!" Peanut screamed. She frowned. She had a feeling that someone was staring at her. It was Miss Match, and she was laughing hysterically.

Peanut frowned again and looked at her shirt. It was stained with nail polish. She got up and went to sit down on her seat. Soda quickly went to sit with her and tried to get the nail polish stain out for her. She then turned and saw Butterfly crying.

"Oh dear, what's wrong?" Mint asked her. Butterfly sniffed. "Vladimir and I were arguing again," she sobbed. "Don't go telling everyone our problems, matuchka!" Vladimir shouted menacingly.

"I am NOT, Vladimir. You think you're SO SMART!" Butterfly screamed at him. "So you think you're cooler than me now, huh?" Vladimir screamed back at her, and he started singing 'Cooler Than Me' by Mike Posner. All the boys sang along happily. Butterfly was really upset. She wanted to punch Vladimir.

Meanwhile, Lollipop was sitting with M&M, her boyfriend, but she didn't like him anymore. She sighed. She was in love with Pedro, but she knew she could never have him. She felt genuinely sad. She started to cry. M&M snored beside her.

Lollipop wiped her tears and looked longingly at Pedro. She then whipped out her guitar and started to sing 'Teardrops On My Guitar' by Taylor Swift. This woke M&M up and he asked her,

"Are you okay, my sugar-plum? Is there something bothering you? Are you sure? Really? Tell me, my dear sweet Lollipop. Seriously, sweetheart! Tell me, tell me, tell me! Please tell me Lollipop. Are you okay? Are you okay are you okay?

"I promise you, I love you with all my heart! Is there someone else in your heart? Lollipop, how could you!? My love! How could you betray me? You have BROKEN my little heart! I can't take it anymore, Lollipop. This is the END of US,"

all without giving poor Lollipop a chance to speak. She was extremely confused. "Are you breaking up with me?" she asked, overjoyed. "What do you THINK, Lollipop!?" M&M replied. Lollipop gasped. Then she smiled.

"Are you laughing in my face??" M&M asked, outraged. "We are totally through! Uh huh, oh yeah. Goodbye you heartbreaker." M&M stomped off to sit elsewhere. Then seeing that there weren't any seats available, he plonked himself onto the floor.

Lollipop just sat there, looking at him. Strawberry came and sat next to M&M and started to comfort him. She said, "Aww. It's okay, babe. Don't cry. We should just ENJOY our lives, sing, dance, be happy, rejoice! Come on, just dance!" and she began singing 'Just Dance' by Lady Gaga, throwing flowers and leaves around gleefully.

Then she stopped halfway through the song when she realised nobody had joined in and everyone was staring at her. She went back to her seat to sit down. Otto giggled and she slapped him. No one ever understood her.

While all this was happening, nobody noticed that Bubbles and Ace were driving the bus. They only noticed this when Bubbles screamed, "Cliff!", and Dong said, "Who is Cliff? Betraying me now!?" Ace looked at Bubbles, aghast.

He said, "You cheating on me with two other men!?" Bubbles screamed. "Look out!! Oh no!!" Everyone screamed in fear as the bus fell over a big red cliff, right into a piranha-infested sea. "We're gonna dieeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!" BFF shouted, amazed.

Bubbles was panicky, trying to hit every button and steer the bus upwards.. somehow. Bubble felt faint and suddenly turned into a sparkly pink glittery bubble. The bubble floated out of the window and into the sunset as the bus splashed into the sea, immediately engulfed by the carnivorous little fishies, never to be seen again.
