    About this ebook

    Buggy gets help from a mechanic, Mr. Pulator, to enter Motoland again. He doesn't realise the consequences of breaking a Motoland rule of not speaking to humans in the human world and even helps the man come into Motoland. When Mannie Pulator starts up a school in the magic car city, he enlists Buggy's help and in return gives the Beetle car his much needed money to start up his dream business. Buggy starts to realise something is wrong when he keeps on disappearing and leaving school kids unattended. When one of the kid cars goes missing, Buggy has to put aside his pride and save Motoland once again. But will he get over the fact that it's his fault this time that Motoland was in danger?

      Chapter One

      You’ve got to come, Buggy, a young lady said as she shoved an envelope into Buggy’s passenger-seat ashtray. Tina and Harvey want you to be the Master of Ceremonies.

      The what? Who are you? Buggy flicked his lights at her.

      My name is Evity Long. I work in Motoland part-time. I’m the messenger for Motoland, the land where cars talk and drive themselves. The girl flicked her long, brown bangs off her forehead.

      Really? Pleased to meet you. He moved his mirror toward her carefully so no one else would see that he could move. Are you the person who put the newspaper clipping in my exhaust pipe last year?

      You remember? Look, I’ve got to run. I’ve several other errands before I have to study for my exams.

      She ran off, her black, long pants rustling and her brown ponytail bobbing up and down behind her.

      But what is a Master of Ceremonies…? She didn’t hear his mumble. He wished he could read the letter right now. He would have to wait until he was in a quiet garage with no one around.

      Hours later, when Mrs Scrag, the elderly lady who owned him, had parked him in the garage and gone inside to cook supper, he used his mirror hand to stretch into the ashtray. He couldn’t reach. He stretched and stretched with both hands but couldn’t reach it.

      Oh no, I’ve got to get it before Mrs. Scrag sees it. Buggy moaned. Why did she put it there?

      His lights flickered off. He would have to wait longer to read it.

      It had been several months since Buggy last saw his friends in Motoland and he missed them terribly. He hadn’t even had a chance to say goodbye to them because Bigwheel chased him out of Motoland. Just when he was feeling so sad, Evity had dropped off the newspaper clipping in his exhaust pipe which reported how Bigwheel was put in jail and how the mayor had a job for him, as well as his own garage, so he wouldn’t have to pay rent anymore.

      All he could think about the last few months was how to get back to Motoland.

      Another thing to make Buggy feel down in the dumps: the next day he would be taken to the mechanic for a service. He hated any procedures and services took so long. He prayed that there wouldn’t be any serious problems with his engine.

      The next morning, Buggy was awake early, his carburetor already shaking from the stress. What was the mechanic going to do?

      Mrs. Scrag walked into the garage, jingling the keys. Come, Buggy, Mr. Pulator is waiting for us. She patted him affectionately on his dashboard before she climbed in and started his engine. She was still very fond of him even though he wasn’t brand new anymore.

      Mr. Pulator is great. He’s fast, neat, and affordable. So, you’re going to come out sounding and working like new, Buggy. Mrs. Scrag drove out the yard and into the road.

      The drive was short and her words calmed him some. When they reached the mechanic, the smell of motor oil, engine parts, and cleaners wafted into his air filters and he almost sneezed.

      Mr. Pulator, a tall, thin man with salt-and-pepper hair came up to Mrs. Scrag and shook her hand. He spoke with a smooth, silky voice.

      He should be ready for collection by Friday. Bye, Mrs. Scrag. He rushed off to the next customer.

      Bye, Buggy. I’ll see you on Friday. Mrs. Scrag
