Pester is questing!
Episode 1: Pester is out and about today, and happens upon a curious sight, a magic show! Is it? It is! It's Pester's old friend Scritch! Scritch is managing for Nibbles the Magician now? Pester is excited to meet Scritch's new friends. Perhaps they could use some help?

Episode 2: Pester offers to help out with this fun magic act, and is introduced by old friend Scritch(manager with an attitude!), to Nibbles (Magician of questionable ability) Priscilla (fluffy, feminine, fun and PINK!) and Al (who, frankly, defies description!)

Episode 3: After a brief bit of coaching by Scritch, Pester nervously steps up and begins to describe to the small yet attentive audience the amazing trick that Nibbles is about to perform. Turning a toad into a dove is certainly a nice trick, and Pester can't wait to see it happen! Squeaking a bit, Pester tries to remember, what were those magic words again?

Pester is questing!
Episode 4: Oh noes, Pester said the wrong words!
"Pester, that's not what I told you to say!" Scritch cries, as a very unhappy skunk appears, knocking poor Al to the ground, while a funky smell sends the audience back a few paces!

Pester is questing!
Episode 5: Suddenly Everything goes blurry, lightning flashes, and the bus, the magician, the manager, the helpers, and Pester all seem to be swirling out of control! BAM they land - in a cornfield? Nibbles says a few magic words and the bus disappears (Whoops! He was only trying to set the parking brake! Oh well...)
Off in the distance they spot what looks like a tornado, and Nibbles and Scritch head for it immediately - "Now I KNOW something is up!" thinks Pester, "they were expecting this!" as they head into the cornfield, which is looking more and more like a maze! "Oh dear" thinks Pester, "what is that around the corner???"

Pester is questing!
Episode 6: Nibbles has decided that the best way to get through this corn maze is to just make it disappear! Pester looks on nervously as he waves his wand and mutters his magic words, when suddenly the sky gets dark and lightning flashes with a loud CRASH! As the bolts of electricity hit the ears of corn, it starts to pop, and the friends are now being pelted by hot popping corn! Al begins eating happily as the rest of the crew duck for cover...

Pester is questing!
Episode 7: Pester watches in horror as most of her friends begin to shrink from eating the popcorn that Nibbles' magic produced! Nibbles (who does NOT eat food from his own magic tricks, Pester noticed) is trying frantically to remember his anti-shrinking spell, especially since those toads suddenly seem a little too interested in the tiny companions!

Pester is questing!
Episode 8: "Shazzam!" Nibbles shouts, and waving his magic wand, he causes his friends to grow back to normal size. Unfortunately, this (and the rain) also caused the corn to grow, so now the maze is even more difficult!! Still, Pester can't help but smile at the happily hopping toads, as they splashed about in the unexpected rain shower.

Pester is questing!
Episode 9: As Pester and the gang are starting to make some headway in this crazy maze, they begin to hear strange, frightening sounds! Giggling, talking and laughing, that must be, no wait, it can't, it... it is! It's HOOMANS!! AHHHHHH!

Pester is questing!
Episode 10: Closer and closer the hoomans come, while Pester and friends tremble in fear! What sorcery is this? Where are they that they would actually see hoomans??? Scritch's hair stands on end as the blonde haired hooman reaches for him!
"Nice kitty" the hooman coos, as Scritch prepares to make a run for it!

Pester is questing!
Episode 11: Nibbles is frantically waving his wand, but alas, he doesn't know any magic that works on hoomans! As the group prepares to be "petted" by these unknown assailants, Pester hides around the corner and sounds forth a terrific "ROAR" which sends the hoomans running away (although why they are still giggling Pester can't understand, are they actually here for entertainment?)

Pester is questing!
Episode 12: As Pester, Nibbles and Scritch are asking directions from a frantic toad, Al and Priscilla notice that this crazy corn maze they find themselves in seems to have even crazier critters in it!

Pester is questing!
Episode 13: Ewwww! Pester and friends are running away from these batty bovines, and stepping in something terribly nasty - Nibbles says some magic words and suddenly the nasty substance turns to grape jelly!
Pester doesn't even want to think about what they just stepped in... gross!

Pester is questing!
Episode 14: "Quick, Nibbles, do something besides clean-up, these cows are crazy!" Pester shouts at the clumsy magician.
While Nibbles frantically searches for a "cow-whisperer" spell, Scritch, in a very un-cat-like maneuver, grabs some bales of hay and starts tossing them at the bonkers beasties! Pester quickly joins in, and soon the peculiar herd is happily munching. Pester and friends slip away and continue exploring this crazy corn maze!

Pester is questing!
Episode 15: "We'll never find our way out of this corn maze!" Pester exclaims, but Scritch has an idea, and the friends climb on one another's shoulders to get a better view of the maze, and the way out! Unfortunately, they chose Al to climb to the top, and before he could see much of anything, he was tumbling back down to the ground with a thud! While this didn't hurt much (he was used to being sawed in half in the magic act, after all) it also didn't help them find the path...

Pester is questing!
Episode 16: Pester looks on skeptically as Nibbles tries to see the way out with his crystal ball. Scritch is terrified of the "CAT-tastrophe" she sees in the magic ball. Priscilla is even more terrified, thinking that it's a mirror! "Oh dear, do I really look that mussed?" Priscilla cries, frantically searching for her comb...
Al looks hungrily at the crystal ball. Pester wonders if Al is seeing a nice lunch in the crystal ball, or does the silly gator simply want to eat the crystal ball itself???
Nibbles can't concentrate with all this noise, and the crystal ball just keeps showing him advertisements for liver pills and the latest kitchen gadgets! Sigh...

Pester is questing!
Episode 17: Pester is wondering if they will ever get going again, when Nibbles remembers he has a map! Scritch (who is the navigator on their tour bus) quickly consults the map and they head off in the direction indicated.
Pester thinks maybe they shouldn't put too much faith in a map with such odd symbols on it. Wasn't that a picture of a ferris wheel in the lower left corner? And why did it say, "This way to the big top" on the other side? Oh well, better keep up, no sense getting lost all alone!

Pester is questing!
Episode 18: Pester hangs back as the group comes upon some rather creepy looking scarecrows... Nibbles is playing it cool (Al is simply hungry) while Priscilla and Scritch glance nervously at the stick figures
Perhaps they should have been more concerned about the crows peering out at them from the corn... Those crows don't seem to be afraid of them OR the scarecrows!

Pester is questing!
Episode 19: "Caw, caw, caw!!" scream the crows as they swoop in to attack the unsuspecting group!
Hiding behind a cornstalk, Priscilla shrieks in fear as a crow nibbles her toe! Al doesn't seem too distressed. Having heard the story of "four and twenty black birds baked in a pie" poor Al starts counting the swooping birds, hoping there's enough to make a nice dessert (fortunately for the crows, Al has no idea how to cook).
Nibbles is trying to protect his ears from the mischievous crows, while Pester wonders what the magic word for "shoo" is?

Pester is questing!
Episode 20: As Pester and friends are being harassed by the fiendish flock, a helpful toad has some advice, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" he whispers mysteriously...
Pester has had enough and shouts, "What does that mean???" and the toad croaks, "Grab a scarecrow, silly!"
So Pester and friends each grab a scarecrow and the raucous ravens finally head for the hills, leaving a very shaky group of friends to gingerly put back the (still creepy) scarecrows, who are looking at them just a little too intensely for inanimate objects...

Pester is questing!
Episode 21: Finally Pester can stand it no longer, and demands an explanation from the recalcitrant bunny.
"Why are we chasing a tornado??" Pester demands to know, "and how did you even know what was going to happen?"
Nibbles sighs and replies, "Okay, you're right, we knew this might happen! We've been through this before, and the only way to get back is to follow the tornado until we can get close enough to hitch a ride home!"
Pester isn't too happy with this news, but it gets even worse!
"The thing is" Nibbles continues, "We need to be all together in a structure of some kind. The bus worked great last time, but I accidentally sent it home without us." "WHAT!!" Pester cried, "Now what do we do???"
Pester shudders as the crew looks toward the creepy house... Al just wonders if there might be snacks in there...

Pester is questing!
Episode 22: Pester lets the Magician's crew go in first, since they (hopefully) know what they are doing... and bumps into them as they stop in shock at the HUGE bat they find inside!

Pester is questing!
Episode 23: Just as Pester thinks they may catch a break, the huge bat wakes up! As the frantic friends start singing a lullaby, the creature becomes even more agitated at their off-key performance.
Nibbles knows there is no way to make THOSE voices any better, so instead he quickly casts a spell on the bat's ears, who now hears a lovely harmony and dozes off again, dreaming of music and his favorite snack (which happens to be lizard - if Al only knew!)

Pester is questing!
Episode 24: "Now I can get to work!" Nibbles mutters, rubbing his paws together. Being a mediocre magician, Nibbles enjoys using the tornado to make real magic, and begins the process of transporting them home, while Al rummages through the cupboards for a snack... oh noes, Al, don't eat the leftovers!

Pester is questing!
Episode 25: Safely at home (sort of, where are we exactly? Pester wonders) Nibbles asks Pester about coming to the next show to help out again.
"No!" shouts Pester, backing away, "I'm finished with magic!"
"Fair enough" Scritch replies, "but the house is yours, we've been to so many of these dimensions, we have more houses than we can ever use!"
Pester looks in panic at the spooky house, but Nibbles tries to be reassuring, "Don't worry, the mega-bat isn't in there... I don't think..."
Pester isn't reassured... but after an adventure like this one, even a bat seems a bit tame!
Now to go change visitor pets, so some other pet can help with their magic act! (Maybe Pester should warn the next pet about what might happen? Nah...)
