So the little rabbit, kind of humbled, reached into his pocket and brought out a hole.
"You had a hole in your pocket?" asked Unknown Rabbit, stunned. This was like something out of the Yellow Submarine!
"Yes, I do. Now then, Tweety, bird. You want perfect eyesight. Well, let me tell you, all over the world there are men just like you, with terrible eyesight, who can't see two feet ahead of them. But they walk around just normally, using their eyes all the time. But they have one thing you don't have! Glasses!"
And Beauman reached into the hole, and got out a pair of glasses, and put them on Tweety's face, who promptly started dancing around happily tweeting. Then iCeD looked at the rabbit and said "My turn."

"Ah, yes. iCeD, robot. You want a conscience. Well, let me tell you, consciences are a lot more trouble then they're worth! They just make you want to do nice things for people all the time. Look at me, for example. I don't have a conscience, and don't I look fine?"
"No, you don't. But I want one anyway."
"Oh well. Well, if you want one."
So Beauman reached into the hole once more, and pulled out an odd swirly thing. I can't tell you much more then that, but Beauman threw it at iCeD, and he kind of asorbed it somehow, and he seemed much happier after that. And then Beauman turned to Dreama.

"You, Dreama, lion. You want to be unlost.... uhh, where'd you go anyway?"
So after finding Dreama between a few of the red lights, Beauman continued.
"Now, all over the world, confused and lost people are everywhere. From there to here, from here to there, lost people are everywhere. But they get along just fine. Because they have one thing you haven't got! A radar!"
So Beauman reached into the hole for the third time, and pulled out a very handy, collapsible, portable radar device, which he hung on Dreama's neck. And it foreverafter showed her where she was, and she no longer had trouble with being lost.

And then iCeD, using his new conscience, tapped Beauman on the shoulder. "I say, now, do Unknown next."
And Tweety agreed with "Yes, that's right. He's next." but Unknown Rabbit just looked a little mournful.
"Oh, I don't suppose there's anything in that little black hole for me."
But Beauman scratched his head for a little while, then said "Now here's what we do. I've got this nice cool spaceship tethered out back so it won't fly away. Now, we can get in it, and fly back to your world. I decided I want to come too."
And there was some rejoicing.

A few days later, when all was in spiffy readyness, Unknown Rabbit and Beauman stepped into the spaceship amongst cheers and cries from the Zircon City inhabitants, as well as Unknown's former travelling companions, two of which who were giving hankies to eachother at an alarming rate. But just as a servant chopped the strap that afixed the spaceship to the ground, Unknown Rabbit's headband blew through the open door, and he jumped out to get it. "Wait there, I'll be right back!" he cried, and dove for the swooping headband. But the spaceship blasted off without him, went up into the sky, skywrote "So long, and thanks for all the fish" and flew away into outer and/or inner space, and was never seen again until it was.

"But now how do I get home?" sobbed Unknown, knowing that if he hadn't leaped for his headband he'd have no trouble. And iCeD, his conscience acting on full power, put a hand on Unknown's shoulder and was silent. But then some Zircon City inhabitants noticed a strange sight, and shielded their eyes from the sun, and pointed up. "Look, what's that?" said one, and Unknown looked up. Ducky was there, in a immense flying Rolls Royce, thowing flowers as it drove. The car alighted on the ground with cheers and party crackers, and Ducky stepped out, acknowledging the populace with smiles and waves. Then she walked up to Unknown, who quickly asked her "Whoever you are, how do I get home?"
And she smiled, and said "Why, Unknown, you've had the power to get home all along! Just look at your feet!"
And Unknown looked down, and there were the Amethyst Purple High Heels even the narrator forgot about. "The Amethyst Purple High Heels will take me home?"
"Yes! Just smash the heels together three times, and repeat "there's no place like Hollywood".
So Unknown Rabbit, after waving tearfully to his friends and associates, did as Ducky told him. And he vanished, and found himself back in the Tavern, slumped over the table. It was closing time.

And back in the land of Here, Gizmo meowed politely, and Ducky smiled sadly at him, and told him that there was no force in the universe that could make him be more perfect then chickens, as chickens would always be moreso.

TEH END.
