Anxiety, Embarrassment, Envy and Ennui took an orange memory to the Belief System.
Embarrassment was so big, he had to squeeze into and out of the elevator, burying Envy and Ennui under him.
When they got out, they could breathe again.
"Quick question" said Envy. "How do we build a new Maya if it took them twenty years to build the old one?"
"Well, the good news is, we're not starting from scratch" said Anxiety.
She put the orange memory into the water and a jagged orange string appeared.
Anxiety plucked the string and Maya's voice said, "if I don't live with Meemaw, I'll survive longer."
Meanwhile, the mind police were wheeling the rest of us into a huge building with a sign reading 'the vault'.
"Where are you taking us?" I said.
"The same place we take all of Maya's secrets" said a cop.
"But we're not secrets" said Fear.
"Oh yeah, sure. Never heard that before" the cop said sarcastically.
They locked us in a pitch black vault.
Always prepared, Fear turned on a flashlight.
"We are suppressed emotions!" he screamed.
Just then, we heard three little voices talking.
"That sounds like denial to me" said one.
"What's that?" said another.
"It's when you don't wanna believe something" said the first one.
Fear shined his flashlight and we saw three little animals. A guinea pig in a cap and blue cape, a duckling with a goggled helmet and green cape, and a turtle with water shoes, a beret and a red cape.
"It's the Wonder Pets!" I squealed.
"From that preschool show Maya used to like?" said Disgust.
"Yeah!" said the guinea pig. "And here's a secret. Maya still likes the show."
The three of them sang their theme song.
guinea pig: Linny
turtle: Tuck
duckling: And Ming-Ming too
all: We're wonder pets and we'll help you
"Please kill me" said Anger.
"Wonder Pets, we're in some real trouble. We're stuck in this jar" I said.
"Oh no! We gotta get them out" said Linny.
They started singing again.
Tuck: Five emotions, stuck in a jar
Ming-Ming: This is sewious
Tuck: We have to help them
Linny: Let's help the emotions
all: Let's help the emotions
Let's help the emotions
Wheeeeeeeee!
"Okay, we're doomed" said Fear.
"Not necessarily" said another familiar voice.
We turned around and we saw a CG face of a mop-haired boy.
"Welcome to the vault" he said.
Disgust gasped. "Paul McCartney?"
"But that's not him; that's his video game character" said Sadness. "Why is he here?"
"Yeah, I always thought Maya had a secret crush on him" said Disgust.
"I never saw the appeal" I said.
"See here, madam" said Paul. "I don't take kindly to insults, you know."
And then, a huge creepy-looking figure appeared. He looked like the Ghost of Christmas Future, really.
"Who's that?" said Fear.
"That's Maya's deep dark secwet" said Ming-Ming.
"But what's the secret?" said Fear.
"I don't think you should know now" said Paul.
