The Gremlin-Goblin
One day, the Hacker was going after the Gremlin-Goblin because he eats metal. Then Motherboard finds out that the Hacker is after the Gremlin-Goblin and sends Jackie, Inez, and Matt to get there before the Hacker does. Hacker set up a super snooper satelite and overhears that Motherboard is trying to stop him. So the Hacker sets up a plan to stop them from getting to the Gremlin-Goblin first. The Gremlin-Goblin lives in a big huge cave in Monster Town, but he is actually out visiting with some friends, but the kids don't know that. Hacker sets up a big net to trap the kids when they go into the cave. Then he goes and catches the Gremlin Goblin and puts him in a cage and locks it up. Digit comes and helps the kids escape by cutting the the net with his super cool beak, after they call him for help on the squakpad. They race to the cage and find the the Gremlin-Goblin in the cage with a combination lock on it. On the back of the lock are some instructions for how to open it.
1. The first number of the combination is the only prime number that equals itself when multiplied by itself.
2. The second number of the combination is the only prime number that equals itself when divided by itself.
3. The third number of the combination is the sum of the first two answers.
The cyber squad gets a little confused at first but then they put their heads together and figure out that the only prime number that equals itself when multiplied and divided by itself is 1. Then the sum of 1+1=2, so the combination is 1-1-2. They free the Gremlin-Goblin and Hacker comes back just in time to see them free the Gremlin-Goblin and throws himself onto the ground and starts crying like a baby because his plan for the Gremlin-Goblin to eat Motherboard did not work. The end.

The Stopped Clock
It was Halloween. The kids were deciding which houses they should go to. Suddenly, Motherboard rang up! They asked, "What's wrong?"
Motherboard said, "Hacker reprogrammed the main clock in Cyberspace to stop at midnight."
The Kids asked, "Why is that so important?"
"When that clock stops then all the clocks in Cyberspace will stop forever and time will stop!"
Then Motherboard sent out a portal and the kids jumped into it, still wearing their Halloween costumes. Mother B told them to put on disguises. Then Digit came with more information and showed it to the kids when they got to the Grim Wreaker. The information said to go to the nearest clock shop to find out how to reprogram a clock and to distract Hacker.
Inez, Matt and Jackie had to take a plane to the nearest clock shop because it was very far away. Meanwhile, Digit tried to get into the Grim Wreaker to tell Hacker a big lie. If you remember, Digit used to be on Hacker's side before Motherboard rescued him. Digit went to Hacker to say that he was on Hacker's side again. Hacker believed him! He believed him so much that he got Digit his old costume back.
The kids got to the clock shop in record time! They asked the clock man for a picture of the original Cyberspace Clock. The man gave it to them and in a flash they were out of the store and on their way to the Clock while Digit was distracting Hacker in the Grim Wreaker. Buzz and Delete were in the dungeon because they couldn't be as good as Digit.
The Kids got to the Clock at 11:55! They were just ahead of schedule. They saw the clock and went inside. There was a man in the clock. He was five feet tall and he was trying to fix the clock but he did not know what it was supposed to look like so the kids gave him the picture. He looked on the back of the picture and found the instructions to fix the clock. They hurried to follow the directions. They said to mix an antidote and pour it into the power source for the clock. They made it just in time! Then the kids ran as fast as they could to the Grim Wreaker to get Digit.
Once they got Digit, they ran to the portal and Motherboard sent them home where they all finished trick or treating, still in their Cyberspace disguises. They all tied for first place in the costume contest. The End

Justyn vs the "Bad" Justyn
Justyn woke up one morning at 8:01 a.m. and smiled at the sun shining in his window. He watched the clock but rubbed his eyes when the time changed from 8:01 to 8:03. What happened to 8:02?
Justyn heard a thump outside and ran to the window. He saw someone who looked like him running away, laughing. On the back of the other kid's shirt, he read the name, Justyn. Two Justyn's? How could this be?
Justyn ran out to catch the mysterious Justyn. He left 123 Main Street but realized that the numbers on his house now said, 1-3 Main Street! "That's strange", he thought. He kept following the mysterious Justyn and spotted him running into a bank. Justyn followed him and made sure that he was always out-of-sight.
The other Justyn sat down at a computer and began typing. Justyn hid around the corner and watched the computer screen. He noticed that the other Justyn used all of the numbers except the number two! "Where did this guy come from and why are there no twos today?" Justyn wondered.
The other Justyn twirled around in his chair and started walking toward Justyn. The door they had come in was now locked and there was nowhere else to hide!
"Hey! What are you doing here?" asked the mysterious Justyn.
"I was wondering the same thing about you!" replied the real Justyn.
"Well, since it's too late for you to stop me, I guess I will tell you. My name is really Duece but I needed another name to fool people in case I got caught," he admitted.
"Get caught doing what?" asked Justyn.
"Stealing all of the twos in town! Ha, ha, ha!" Duece laughed.
"Why do you want the twos? Don't you know that without twos, we won't be able to count anything right?" asked Justyn. As he questioned Duece, he circled the room until he came to Duece's computer.
"I've always been second best and I want to steal all of the twos so I won't be second best anymore...I will be number One!" Duece answered.
"Well, that's silly," Justyn said. "If you steal all of the twos, you may ju
st end up being the third best!"
When he said this, he hit a key on the computer and number twos of every size, color and shape began filling up the computer screen!
Duece said, "You may be right but we'll just have to wait and see!"
"Actually," said Justyn, "see this? I just programmed all of the number twos to go back to where they came from!"
"What?!" cried Duece. "Why, I'm going to get you for that!" He ran toward Justyn but suddenly stopped. He was shrinking!
"No! I'm losing power! I need those twos!" he cried, just before he disappeared.
A bank guard opened the door at that moment and Justyn smiled. He walked out the door and went home, leaving the guard to wonder what a four year old boy was doing in a bank in his pajamas!
Justyn saved the day and counted his blessings on his way home. The End

The Mystery of the Missing Mysteries
All of the little children were being read bedtime stories by their parents, but none of the stories were mysteries. In fact nobody I asked even knew what a mystery was. I looked in the library and found no mystery books, it was like I was in a whole different world! I even looked in the T.V. guide and the newspaper, but no mystery either! Then I realized that this was a mystery and then I woke up. THE END
