Horatio is questing! Episode 1/25

While Snowie was hanging out in the open air market place, his friend Gaspar, known best by his nickname, Gassy, they were reading about the upcoming astrological event of a super star rising in the East. Gassy suggested that maybe they could get the gang together and see what it was all about. Snowie was pretty excited about doing something wild, and grabbed a handful of cookies someone left out for the shoppers.

As the twilight starts descending, Snowball was happy to have Melchior, Melli to her friends, and Balthasar, BB to his friends, along with Aria, (who was a real doll) queueing up to start this journey to the stars! Or well, maybe just a good telescope to see one.

Just as the travelers were ready to map out the route to the star, a Haboob started making things difficult for Alex, but BB, Melli and Gassy have those lush eyelashes to keep the dust down. Aria, a huge Sci-Fi fan, found an ancient shoppe earlier in the day and purchased a "replica" of her favorite travel device, she dubbed the Tardi. She spent most of the rest of the day marveling at the control panel and the magical room being inside!

Pebbles heard the friends were planning a travel venture and put on an impromptu concert to get some free publicity, erm, send off the friends. Aria thanks all who are grooving to the music, but where did Winter go? It's almost time to take off?
Winter wandered off during the concert to grab an extra toothbrush, and accidentially got locked in a portapotty, confusing it with the Tardi! Oh noes!
In all the hubbaloo, the travelers didn't realize Winter was missing and took off, Aria punching in the destination!

Horatio is questing! Episode 5/25

Uh--oh, cried Aria, I thought I put the right coordinates for the star in my Petoogle maps, but apparently not. And who invited the band member along?
I'm going to sing Christmas carols, don'tchaknow? Listen, here's the first one! Harp, the Harold angel sings! Gloria, the new born king! Peas on earth and Mercy's wild.........
NO!NO!No! cried Melli, "that is NOT how that goes! It's HARK! The Hearld Angels Sing!"
Aria, in the meantime, not in need of a new car, and tired of listening to the bickering about lyrics and BB and Gassy arguing over whether cars get better "gas" mileage than a camel, punched in the coordinates for the bright star, calling "All aboard!" While the Tardi warms up, starts to shimmer and POP! They are off!

Horatio is questing! Episode 6/25

Quicker than a bunny to the finish line, the group finds themselves in the town square enjoying the brightly lit star on the evergreen tree, decorated with twinkling lights and sparkling ornaments. Aria gives a deep heaving sigh, wondering how Petoogle could've made this mistake twice now, not considering it might be user error.
Oh Tanner Bum, Oh Tanner Bum, How Lovely are the Ranches! was heard by our guitar strumming minstrel, much to the dismay of Melli, who immediately set the record straight. Meanwhile Gassy and BB found a vendor giving out free cookie samples, and who doesn't love Christmas cookies? Aria, double checking the coordinates, punches up and calls her "All aboard!" With a resounding POP! they are off again!

Horatio is questing! Episode 7/25

"Uh, Aria, I am not sure where we are, but I know where we aren't! This is surely not the best place to see the star, and just look at all the sand those camels are dragging into the Tardi!" said Elvis, and quickly broke into song again OH Little town of Bethany's Ham, how sweetly we see you lie! Above the cheap and creamless tea, the silent stirs go by Melli, hearing this assassination of Little Town of Bethlehem, starts setting Elvis straight.
Aria is convinced that she can't be wrong and suggests they explore for the star.

Horatio is questing! Episode 8/25

After sailing around the small island, Aria and Elvis (who turns out, gets seasick, and couldn't sing, much to Aria's happiness), meet up with the camels to discover that the bright light was indeed a false one, the local lighthouse provides an important function, but not the one they need. Back to the Tardi and away we go!

With another loud POP the small group of travelers found themselves in the bright lights of the upscale salon, where Gassy, BB and Melli took to the stylist chairs like a duck to water!
Aria is a little frustrated and can't figure out why her GPS won't take them to the star, but is beginning to enjoy these little side trips as well. She silently wonders if they can do anything with this yarn...

With sudden brilliance, the sky lit up with lights, brightness and loud thunderous POPS! Now, what one should they follow? Elvis in his traditional style breaks out in song I wonder as I wander out under the sky that Jesus my Saviour did come... and hummed the rest, but very proud he managed to get some of the lyrics right! Melli gave him a high hoof, and checking the GPS again they took off for the star.. right?

Horatio is questing! Episode 13/25

Sloshing up to the shore of a deserted island, Aria and the friends can't figure out where they landed, but *gasp*, Horror of Horrors! They lost their GPS signal! How are they supposed to find the star? Elvis suggested they sleep a good night's sleep in the bungalow and maybe tomorrow the GPS will be back up. To entertain the sojourners, Elvis breaks out in song, and Melli, BB and Gassy join in for back up! I saw Mommy kissin' Sander Claws, under neath the Misty Toes last night! She didn't see me creep, hounding stairs and jumping leaps........ the camels gave up, where does he get these lyrics?

Inside the cabana, chowing down on gourmet cookies and enjoying the decorations, Elvis started his own rendition of Come, they told me, Barium, barium, barium, a nude corn ring to see, Barium, barium, barium.... and for a change, Melli just laughed and laughed, and gave Elvis a very dry cookie, shutting him down with a treat.....

Horatio is questing! Episode 16/25

Aria and the crew walked out onto the beach one last time (and to get some fresh air, 3 camels and a hound dog in close quarters smelled suspiciously like Eau De Wet Dog) and enjoy the clarity of stars in the night sky, shimmering forth with the glory of foretelling the story of old.

Horatio is questing! Episode 17/25

I don't want a lot for Christmas! There's just one thing I need, a '57 Chevy under the Christmas tree, with robin egg blue fins and dice on the mirror, yeah, all I want for Christmas is youuuu! Elvis provided the entertainment while the crew scarfed down lunch getting ready for the next stop. Aria is getting a little worried that the time is getting away from them and they're going to miss that special star!

Horatio is questing! Episode 18/25

Darn it! Here they are again, in the wrong spot. The bright lights of the landing strip at the airport somehow managed to interfere with their actual destination.

Ohh the leather outside is frightful, but the tire is so blightful, and since we got no place to go, let us row, let us row, let us row!

Melli took the GPS away from Aria, tumbling through space, careening around houses, stars and was that a sleigh?!

Horatio is questing! Episode 21/25

Once they Tardi set down in the food court at the Starlight Mall, everyone scattered around quickly grabbing a A venti pumpkin spice latte with eight shots of espresso, seven pumps of pumpkin sauce, and one pump of maple pecan sauce. Elvis was happy to reconnect with some of his band mates, and broke out into song, but they didn't even bother telling each other what they were going to sing, and each did their own song, the very definition of cacophony!

Horatio is questing! Episode 22/25

Catalina shouted for joy when the Tardi landed after the narrow escape from the Port-A-Potty! Listening to the great adventures the friends have had, there was some remorse, for sure!

Horatio is questing! Episode 24/25

What is that rising over there in the East? cried Aria.
"Let's load up the Tardi, and see if we can get there, this is our last chance!" said BB
And with a loud POP, they were off for the final chapter of their adventure.

Horatio is questing! Episode 25/25

And without further ado, the group landed directly in the radiance of the Star from the East. Amazed and in awe, the group joined the shepherds in worshipping the new born babe, wrapped in swaddling, in a manger. For unto us, Christ is born! And Elvis, digging deep, broke into song Silent night, Holy night! All is calm, all is bright! Round yon virgin, Mother and Child... and each of the group gave a gift from their heart, worshiping the King of Kings.

And now, it's time to take your gift and return home, change your pet and take a new journey into the Christmas season!
Horatio has completed the quest! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also take part!
