Teletubbies: TAOTMT - Series 1 - Addition #5: "Little Vacuum, Big Problem"

"Little Vacuum, Big Problem"

Yet another normal day in Teletubby Land. The weather was much better today; not too hot, but not too cold. Cleo, Sunset and Dee Dee were all off doing their own things. However, that's not where this story begins. No, this story begins at the Custard Facility.

Ah, yes, a normal day in the Custard facility. Well, about as normal as it gets when Noo Noo's in charge. Speaking of Noo Noo, he was just strolling along in the facility. He was wandering around, looking for Tiddly.

After spending a good 10 minutes or so looking for him, Noo Noo finally found Tiddly in one of the hallways, cleaning up rubble and dust while humming a happy tune. Noo Noo sighed in annoyance, moving closer to Tiddly.

"Huh? Oh, hey bro!" Tiddly stopped what he was doing and looked at Noo Noo. "You need something? Orr..."

Noo Noo groaned. "Ugh. First of all, stop calling me BRO. It's demeaning. Second... I have a job for you."

"A... A job??? You mean you finally want me to do something other than cleaning??? WOOHOO! I FINALLY GET TO BE USEFUL!" Tiddly shouted happily.

"Uh huh." Noo Noo rolled his eyes. "I'm very happy for you, etc etc."

"Sooo... What's my job??? Is it something cool? Please tell me it's something cool." Tiddly gleefully awaited a response.

"Well, I suppose to some it's noteworthy. I need you to go collect some information for me by monitoring the Superdome at this address." Noo Noo spoke in a somewhat sarcastic tone. He then gave Tiddly a small piece of paper with an address on it.

Tiddly held the paper in his trunk and stared at it for a moment, blankly. He then spoke. "....So you want me to be... ...A spy?"

Noo Noo rolled his eyes yet again. "Yeah, sure, whatever."

Tiddly resisted the urge to make an audible 'squee' noise. He couldn't believe he was actually going to be a SPY! He made a salute gesture with his trunk, still holding the paper. "I-I won't let you down, bro!!"

As Tiddly zoomed away, Noo Noo yelled at him, despite the fact that he doesn't hear it at all. "STOP CALLING ME BRO!"

Tiddly was eager to finally be useful. All of his life he had only been tasked with smaller things, such as cleaning or 'guarding' the facility. Though, guarding wasn't really necessary, since there wasn't usually much activity. He was determined to make his brother proud!

Meanwhile, back at the superdome, the weather was still beautiful as ever. Cleo, Sunset and Dee Dee were all doing their own things, as previously established. Cleo was outside, jumping between two hills in an attempt to look 'cool'. Sunset was tinkering with a new invention at the table. Dee Dee was catering to her [100% real] flowers.

Tiddly made his way over to the address, and shockingly enough, it was the address of the trio's superdome. He quickly hid in a bush, glancing around in search for any activity. He spotted Cleo pulling his stunts and raised an eyebrow curiously.

"Nyyeeeeowww! I'm a ninja! No one dares mess with me!" Cleo blurted as he jumped from one hill to another. He was somehow landing the jumps perfectly the first few times. However, this streak was short lived. He tripped while trying to jump, and ended up rolling all the way down the hill, lying there in pain and defeat. "Owwww.... Hill, you've betrayed me..."

Tiddly, still hiding in the bush, laughed a bit as this happened. He whispered to himself. "Wow, the folks around here sure are odd..."

"Huh?" Cleo heard what sounded like laughter coming from a nearby bush, and immediately stood up. "Hey! Who's there?? What's so funny?!"
