Chapter  13
“But don’t worry. There’s another station,” said Bing Bong in a comforting voice as they all popped back into their original three-dimensional selves. “If we hurry, we can catch it.”
Joy was skeptical, wondering if they were simply headed on another of Bing Bong’s shortcuts. As he walked ahead, she whispered to Sadness, “Is there really another station?”
“Uh-huh,” Sadness said. “Through there.”
Straight ahead, Bing Bong stood with his arms held wide in front of big, beautiful gates. “Welcome to Imagination Land,” he declared.
“Imagination Land?” Joy asked.
“Sure, I come here all the time. I’m practically the mayor. Hey, you guys hungry?” he asked. “There’s French Fry Forest!”
“No way.” Joy’s eyes grew wide as she looked at the small area filled with giant French fries.
The next area Bing Bong led them to was full of glittering trophies and medals. “Check it out. Trophy Town! Medals, ribbons, certificates… everyone’s a winner,” he said, before kicking a soccer ball into a goal. Mind workers immediately rushed to him and showered him with medals. “I won first place!” he shouted.
Down the way, Joy spotted Cloud Town and got even more excited. “That’s my favorite!” she said, ripping off a small chunk of cloud. She held on as the little piece of cloud floated her up into the air. She quickly let go and ran off to see more of Imagination Land.
Bing Bong stared at the cloud. Then he ripped off a piece, too. But it wasn’t just a random cloud in Cloud Town—it was part of a cloud house. A cloud man stomped angrily from the front door. Startled, Bing Bong took a deep breath and blew out, pushing the cloud man away.
Quickly, the three moved on to the land of Lava! There, Joy and Bing Bong jumped on big couches, moving from cushion to cushion over the lava and having a great time. “Imagination Land is the best!” shouted Bing Bong.
Sadness didn’t agree. “Is it all going to be so interactive?” she asked.
“Wait, wait! Hang on just a minute,” Bing Bong said as he spied a house made of giant playing cards.
Joy and Sadness watched as he rushed into the house and emerged with a red rocket ship wagon. Joy was so excited to see it. “I stashed it in there for safekeeping,” Bing Bong explained. “Now I’m all set to take Riley to the moon!”
Bing Bong flung his arms wide and accidentally hit the house of cards. One by one, the cards collapsed on one another until the house disappeared. Joy, Sadness, and Bing Bong quickly moved on to another area.
“Isn’t it great?” asked Bing Bong as he looked around Imagination Land. “And there’s always something new, like… Who the heck is that?” Bing Bong stopped and pointed to a handsome teenage boy leaning against a wall, striking a pose.
A worker passing by answered, “Imaginary Boyfriend.”
“I would die for Riley,” said Imaginary Boyfriend in a dramatic, raspy voice.
“Oh, gaah,” said Joy, her lip curling in disgust.
“I’ve never seen him before,” said Bing Bong.
“I live in Canada,” the boyfriend said quickly.
Joy was anxious to get to the train. “This way, through Preschool World,” Bing Bong said as he guided them.
“Riley, here we come!” Joy exclaimed.
Meanwhile, Riley was inside a local hockey rink. She was sitting on the bleachers next to her mom, getting ready for tryouts. “These kids look pretty good considering they’re from San Francisco,” her mom said jokingly.
“Okay, Anderson, you’re up!” the coach shouted.
“I gotta go,” said Riley as she stood. Then she skated onto the ice.
Inside Headquarters, Disgust, Fear, and Anger were racking their brains, trying to figure out what to do. With the core memories gone, the Islands of Personality were all dark. That meant that when Riley went to use one, she wouldn’t be able to. “If she tries to use Hockey Island, it’s going down,” said Disgust.
“Which is why I’ve recalled every hockey memory I can think of,” said Fear. “One of these has got to work in place of the core memory.”
They started loading the memories into the core memory holder as Riley skated onto the ice. Out the back window, the Emotions could see Hockey Island sputtering, lighting up weakly. “Ha ha!” Fear cried. “We did it! It’s working!”
BOOM! Suddenly, the holder blew out one of the memories like a bullet and took Anger right along with it! “Umph!” Anger groaned as the memory knocked into him.
On the ice, Riley struggled to control the puck. She went to slap it but missed and fell flat on her back.
Inside Headquarters, Fear tried to jam the memory back into the holder, but it shot out again and blew him back. Then the holder spun like a top and blasted all the memories out, spitting them at Fear! He collapsed to the ground, in pain.
Riley continued to fumble on the ice. She looked like she had never played hockey before. She tried to slap the puck and fell down again.
“That’s it!” Anger said, pushing Fear off the controls.
“Wait,” Fear said. “No, no, no! Use your words.”
“GrrraaaAAHHH!” Anger screamed.
Riley snapped. She threw down her hockey stick. The other players stopped in their tracks to watch as she rushed offthe ice, back to the bleachers.
“Riley, what’s wrong?” Mom asked.
“Let’s go,” Riley said, taking off her skates.
“You’re not going to finish tryouts?”
“What’s the point?”
“Hey, it’ll be all right,” Mom said. “Let’s just—”
Riley exploded. “Stop saying everything will be all right!” she yelled. Then she dashed toward the exit.
Back in Imagination Land, Joy heard a deafening BOOM! She turned to watch Hockey Island crumble like an iceberg. Another island was gone.
