Down, down, down they fell. Their very air pressed against their bodies as they pelted towards the ground.
"Are you sure about this Zac?" Isaac yelled.
He only got Zac's exaltations for an answer.
"Hey, what's that?" Taylor cried.
They looked to where he was pointing. There, on a cloud they were passing were four girls, one playing the kazoo and the other three singing:
"Started singing it not knowing what it was. And they'll continue singing it forever just because it is the song that doesn't end. It just goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was and they'll continue singing it forever just because it is..."
"I think next time we should check them for Energizer batteries," Isaac commented dryly.
"Energizer batteries?" Taylor questioned.
"Yeah, they're still going."
"Look out for the ducks!" Zac yelled.
They looked, sure enough, right below them was a flight of ducks.
"Ahh!" Isaac yelled.
"Ahh!" Taylor yelled.
"Excuse me, pardon me," Fred said politely.
"Hey! That tickles!" Zac giggled.
They fell further.
"Zac?" Taylor asked.
"Yo?"
"Are you sure she's gonna save us?"
"Yes," he replied impatiently.
"Because we're getting really close to the ground here," Taylor went on.
"And none of us wanna go splat," Isaac finished.
Zac didn't want to admit it, but he was getting worried too. He said nothing.
"Zac?"
Getting no reply resulted in Isaac and Taylor screaming uncontrollably. And Zac joined in. The ground came rushing towards them.
"The rings! The rings!" Fred yelled suddenly.
"We threw them away!" Taylor told him.
"I know, I picked them up!"
Somehow, Fred managed to fall close enough to his brothers to give them the rings.
"Let our powers combine! Isaac power!"
"Taylor power!
"Zac power! Hey are you aware how corny this is?"
"Fred power!"
"Fred power?" Isaac, Taylor and Zac repeated.
But there was no more time left to question this, for Captain Hanson appeared. He assessed the situation:
"So, what's the problem?"
"Hello? We're falling to our deaths! Rescue us!" Taylor demanded.
"What? No please?"
"Please!" All four brothers yelled.
"Oh, ok."
So Captain Hanson grabbed them, - Isaac and Taylor with his hands, and Zac and Fred with his feet. Hey, he had drummer power in him. The falling slowed, and Captain Hanson was able to deposit them neatly on the ground.
"You were wrong! She didn't save us!" Isaac yelled at Zac. "We had to call him instead."
"Well, there's gratitude for you," Captain Hanson muttered, and disappeared without another word.
