CHAPTER 1-THE NEW YORKERS CONTINUED
AT THE APARTMENT, TONY IS HAVING AN ARGUMENT WITH HIS BOSS, MR MURRAY. MR MURRAY DOESN'T THINK TONY IS DOING HIS JOB. HE HAS ASKED HIM ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASSION TO FIX THE ELEVATOR IN THE BUILDING AND TONY JUST HASN'T GOTTEN AROUND TO IT.HE FIRES TONY AND TELLS HIM HE MUST MOVE OUT BY TOMORROW. HE LEAVES IN A HUFF AND TONY IS LEFT TO CONTEMPLATE HIS FUTURE.
LATER, VIRGINIA ARRIVES WITH PRINCE AT HER APARTMENT. SHE SEES PEOPLE SHE KNOWS SNORING IN THE HALLWAY NEAR HER APARTMENT.SHE FINDS THE DOOR BASHED IN AND THE PLACE IN DISARRAY. SHE IS WORRIED ABOUT HER FATHER BUT RELAXES WHEN SHE SEES HIM ASLEEP IN THE CHAIR BY THE TV. HE IS COVERED IN SOME SORT OF PINK DUST . SHE REALIZES SHE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE AWAKE THERE WHEN THE TROLL KING'S CHILDREN SHOW UP, HOLDING HER SHOES, AND MAKING DEMANDS FOR THE RETURN OF THE DOG. SHE SAYS NO, BUT THEY THREATEN HER. SHE TELLS HIM THAT HE IS IN THE OPEN ELEVATOR. THE TROLLS GO TO INVESTIGATE THE ELEVATOR. THEY WALK INSIDE AND SEE THAT THE DOG ISN'T THERE. SHE TRICKS THEM AND STEPS OUT AS THE DOOR CLOSES. THEY HAVE NO IDEA THAT THEY ARE IN AN ELEVATOR AND THINK SHE HAS CAST A MAGIC SPELL ON THEM. THEY THINK THAT THEY ARE TRAPPED IN HER POCKET IN A BOX.THEY ARE STUCK IN THE ELEVATOR BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO WORK THE BUTTONS. VIRGINIA WAKES HER FATHER AND ASKS HIM WHAT IS GOING ON. HE HAS NO IDEA. SHE FEELS AFRAID AND TONY TELLS HER TO GO TO HER GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE WHERE SHE WILL BE SAFE. SHE RELUCTANTLY GOES, TAKING THE DOG WITH HER.
IN THE NINE KINGDOM'S, THE QUEEN IS FORMING THE COMPLEXITIES OF HER PLAN. SHE WANTS TO TRAIN THE DOG-TURNED-HUMAN WENDELL TO ASSUME THE ROLE OF THE PRINCE, BE CORONATED KING AND THEN KILL HIM. THEN SHE BECOMES QUEEN AND RULES ALL. RELISH, THE TROLL KING, IS SENT OUT TO THE 4TH KINGDOM TO CHECK UP ON THE STATUS OF THE CORONATION. THE QUEEN MAKES HER WAY TO SNOW WHITE'S OLD CASTLE TO CLAIM THE MAGIC MIRRORS SHE'LL NEED TO ASSUME THE THRONE. WENDELL-DOG ACCOMPANIES HER TO BE TUTORED IN THE WAYS OF THE PRINCE. SHE ARRIVES WITH HER LOYAL MANSERVANT AND PROCEEDS TO DIG UP THE MIRRORS. ONE OF WHICH IS PARTICULARILY USEFUL- IT ALLOWS HER TO TALK WITH SOMEONE OVER ANY REFLECTIVE SURFACE. SHE BEGINS WENDELL-DOG'S TEACHINGS AND FINDS HIM A RELUCTANT SUBJECT. HE JUST WANTS TO BE A DOG BUT GOES ALONG WITH HER PLANS.
LATER, BACK IN NEW YORK, WOLF FOLLOWS VIRGINIA'S SCENT TO HER APARTMENT. THERE HE MEETS TONY. WOLF TELLS HIM HE WANTS TO KNOW WHERE VIRGINIA IS BECAUSE THE DOG SHE HAS IS HIS AND HE WANTS HIM BACK. HE LOVES THE DOG AND MISSES HIM AND IS LONELY WITHOUT HIM. AT FIRST TONY SAYS HE WON'T TELL HIM WHERE, BUT WOLF OFFERS A MAGIC BEAN THAT WILL GRANT THE USER SIX WISHES IF HE TELLS HIM WHERE HIS DAUGHTER IS.. TONY IS AWESTRUCK AT THE THOUGHT AND CAREFULLY CONSIDERS WOLF'S OFFER FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. HE AGREES AND TELLS HIM THAT VIRGINIA AND THE DOG ARE AT HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW'S HOUSE AND GIVES HIM DIRECTIONS. WOLF GIVES THE BEAN TO TONY,TELLS HIM THE SWALLOW IT AND START WISHING AFTER HE IS GONE. WOLF LEAVES AND A LITTLE WHILE LATER, TONY'S BOSS SHOWS UP DEMANDING TO KNOW WHY HE HASN'T LEFT YET. TONY THINKS THIS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO TRY A WISH AND WISHES THAT MR MURRAY AND HIS WHOLE FAMILY WOULD KISS HIS ASS AND BE HIS SLAVES FOREVER. IMMEDIATELY, MR MURRAY'S EYES GLAZE OVER AND HE FOLLOWS TONY INTO THE APARTMENT.
SOON AFTER THAT, WE SEE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE SHOWED UP AT THE LEWIS APARTMENT. RELATIVES OF MR MURRAY'S HAVE SHOWN UP, MANY RELATIVES, LIKE THEY HAVE APPEARED OUT OF THE WOODWORK. THEY ARE ALL STARING ADORINGLY AT TONY AND ALL WANT TO KISS HIS ASS. MR MURRAY IN PARTICULAR IS VERY ATTENTIVE. TONY IS ENJOYING ALL THE ATTENTION AND DECIDES TO MAKE HIS SECOND WISH- HE WISHES FOR NEVERENDING BEER IN HIS REFRIGERATOR. THE BEER STARTS MULTIPLYING AND HE IS PLEASED. HE ALSO WISHES FOR HIS THIRD WISH FOR A VACUUM THAT WILL CLEAN UP THE MESSY APARTMENT BY ITSELF. SO IT IS DONE.
EVERYTHING IS GOING GREAT AT THE APARTMENT WHEN TONY MAKES HIS FOURTH WISH- FOR A MILLION DOLLARS. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DOORBELL RINGS AND A MILLION DOLLARS IN A BAG IN ON THE DOORSTEP. TONY GRABS IT WITH GLEE AND BRINGS IT INSIDE. ALL OF MR MURRAY'S RELATIVES ARE LIKE SLAVES, AND HIS ELDERLY MOTHER WHATS TO GO DOWNSTAIRS BUT THE ELEVATOR IS BROKEN. SHE ASKS TONY TO FIX IT, BUT TONY TELLS HER TO FIX IT HERSELF, SINCE SHE IS THE SLAVE NOT HIM, NOT REALIZING THE TROLLS ARE STILL INSIDE ALMOST A DAY LATER. AS SHE IS FIXING IT, THE BEER IS MULTIPLYING AT A FRIGHTENING RATE, THE VACCUM IS EATING THE CURTAINS , AND THE POLICE SHOW UP AT THE LEWIS APARTMENT. THEY ARE LOOKING FOR THE MILLION DOLLARS THAT WENT MISSING FROM A BANK ROBBERY EARLIER THAT DAY. THEY SEE THAT TONY IS HOLDING THE BAG IN QUESTION AND NO MATTER HOW HE EXPLAINS, THEY ARREST HIM FOR ROBBERY AND TAKE HIM WAY IN THEIR SQUAD CAR.
MEANWHILE, THE TROLLS ARE GETTING VERY DESPONDENT. THEY ARE HUNGRY AND ARE BEGINNING TO THINK THEY WILL NEVER ESCAPE FROM THE ELEVATOR. SUDDENLY, THE ELEVATOR MOVES AND THE TROLLS ARE AMAZED AND EVEN MORE AMAZED WHEN THE DOOR OPENS AT THE BOTTOM FLOOR OF THE APARTMENT COMPLEX .
THEY ARE CONVINCED THAT VIRGINIA'S "SPELL" HAS WORN OFF AND GO OUT IN RENEWED PURSUIT OF HER AND THE DOG, THINKING SHE IS A VERY DANGEROUS WOMAN WHO MUST BE STOPPED FROM PERFORMING ANYMORE MAGIC.
IN THE POLICE CAR,TONY IS PETRIFIED. HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, BUT KNOWS HE MUST GET AWAY. HE WISHES TO BE SET FREE AND SO HE IS. HE HIGHTAILS IT THROUGH CENTRAL PARK WITH THE POLICE IN HOT PURSUIT. THE TROLLS HAVE ALSO ARRIVED IN CENTRAL PARK, THINKING THAT THE DOG AND VIRGINIA MIGHT BE BACK WHERE THEY STARTED AT.
BUT VIRGINIA IS AT HER GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE. SHE IS RESTING WITH THE DOG AND LISTENING TO HER GRANDMOTHER BERATE HER FATHER FOR BEING SUCH A FAILURE. SHE IS TIRED OF HEARING HER COMPLAIN AND TELLS HER SHE IS FALLING ASLEEP.IT IS NEAR MIDNIGHT WHEN SHE DOZES OFF. IN THE MORNING, THE DOORBELL RINGS. VIRGINIA'S GRANDMOTHER GOES TO THE DOOR AND SEES A HANDSOME GENTLEMAN OUTSIDE. IT'S WOLF, WHO HAS FINALLY TRACKED DOWN VIRGINIA AND THE DOG. HE FLATTERS HER, TELLS HER THAT HE IS VIRGINIA'S FIANCE,AND SHE LETS HIM INSIDE, SAYING HE IS LOOKING FOR HIS DOG. INSIDE, HE IS NOT QUITE HIMSELF, AND DRESSES IN THE GRANDMOTHER'S CLOTHES. HE TIES HER UP, AND PREPARES TO COOK HER FOR HIS DINNER. THE OVEN IS TOO SMALL, SO HE PREPARES TO CUT HER UP WHEN HE HEARS VIRGINIA CALLING FOR HER GRANDMOTHER. HE GOES OUT, WITH A MEAT CLEAVER IN HAND AND SEES HER, SCARING HER. HE IS OVERCOME BY HER LOVLINESS. HAS NEVER SEEN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND HE FALLS IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!!
SHE TELLS THE DOG TO RUN AS HE CHASES HER AROUND THE APARTMENT. HE IS TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH HER BUT SHE IS DEATHLY AFRAID OF HIM. THEN, SHE KNOCKS HIM OUT OF THE WINDOW AND HE IS KNOCKED OUT. VIRGINIA LEAVES HER GRANDMOTHER'S APARTMENT TO GO BACK TO CENTRAL PARK WHERE SHE FOUND THE DOG. SHE IS TIRED AND VERY CONFUSED.HE IS TOO MUCH TROUBLE AND SHE IS AFRAID OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN NEXT. GOING TO ALMOST THE EXACT SPOT WHERE SHE FOUND THE DOG, SHE TELLS HIM TO SHOO, BUT HE WON'T GO. SHE STANDS WITH HIM, WONDERING WHAT TO DO.
AFTER WOLF AWAKENS, HE IS DISORIENTED. HE BEGINS WALKING AROUND WHEN A WOMAN APPROACHS HIM. SHE IS A PSYCHIATRIST AND SHE THINKS THAT WOLF IS A PATIENT. HE SITS DOWN WITH HER TO BEGIN HIS SESSION, AND COMES TO THE CONCLUSION THAT WOLF IS DISTURBED IN LOVE AND GIVES HIM A LIST SELF-HELP BOOKS TO FIND AND READ UNTIL THEY CAN MEET AGAIN. WOLF GOES TO A STREET MARKET TO GET THE BOOKS AND HAS ACCUMULATED QUITE A COLLECTION WHEN HE SEES TONY BEING PURSUED BY THE POLICE DOWN THE STREET.
THE CHASE ENDS UP IN CENTRAL PARK. VIRGINIA SEES HER FATHER, TRAILED BY THE POLICE
AND ASKS HIM WHAT HAS HAPPENED. HE TELLS HER HIS WHOLE STORY AND THEY GO ON THE RUN WITH THE DOG, THE TROLLS, WOLF AND THE POLICE IN HOT PURSUIT. TONY KNOWS THE DOG IS TRYING TO TELL HIM SOMETHING BUT CANNOT UNDERSTAND HIM, SO HE WISHES FOR HIS LAST WISH THAT HE COULD UNDERSTAND WHAT THE DOG IS SAYING. WENDELL FINALLY HAS A VOICE, IF ONLY TO TONY IN HIS MIND, AND HE TELLS THEM TO LOOK FOR A MAGIC PORTAL TO ESCAPE AND IF THEY VALUE THEIR LIVES, THEY WILL FOLLOW HIM. THEY FINALLY LOCATE THE PORTAL, AND THEY ALL JUMP THROUGH, NOT KNOWING WHAT FANTASTIC ADVENTURES AWAIT THEM ON THE OTHER SIDE.
