Tea is calling us!
- How is the glacier? - Hello.
She is melting!
Global warming is a reality in Freezerland.
Should we give the news, uncle?
Tea, look behind you!
- That volcano ... - It's no longer active now.
We're losing you, Tea!
Tea!
I would like to arrive whole!
- Can you avoid abrupt maneuvers? - Ok!
Who taught you to fly?
I can tell you where I realized I was good at flying.
Into the Brave Navigators of the Skies!
- But you've never been there! - All right, you caught me.
I haven't been a Prode Navigator
but I've always wanted to be.
- Who taught you to fly? - Nobody!
I learned on my own.
Aah!
Beta Mouse, this is Freezerland's control tower.
Land at Freezerland airport.
The airspace is closed due to ongoing volcanic activity.
The airport is far from the Tea field.
We have no time to waste, we aim for the field.
Trap, we are guests in this country.
We have to respect the rules, so we land right away.
Will we have time to taste some local delicacies?
I'm afraid not, we won't stop long.
Once we have passed the checks we will go to find Tea.
Right! Maybe on the way back.
Now we have to find Tea and immediately
especially if there is a volcanic eruption in progress.
There is a strange thing.
There has been no seismic activity here for a long time.
No earthquakes, no minor tremors ...
In fact it's strange.
These are the signals that herald the awakening of a volcano.
- Another. - Permit.
- Hey, we're in line! - Bus Lane!
It is reserved for us VIR, Very Important Rodent.
- You don't know what I'm talking about. - Kelly, what are you doing here?
The same thing you do with it, make fontina cheese.
A report on the volcano. Our passports, Marameo?
- All right, boss. - You better go back to Topazia.
The report on the volcanic eruption is ours!
Do you think he will bite?
When did Geronimo ever miss a scoop?
He will go for a fish on this false volcano
and will soon become everyone's laughing stock!
I would like to look for Tea and follow the scoop!
- I'd like to try the dishes. - We don't have time!
Our priority is to find Tea again.
She is more important than a scoop.
- We need to get moving. - The next!
- Where's Trap? - Here I am!
The brave explorer is ready to go.
You have never been an explorer.
True, but I've always wanted to be.
And now I have the opportunity to organize my own team:
the Trap gang! Who is there?
I don't think you're fit to lead a team of scouts.
Well, challenge accepted!
I'll take command of the expedition.
I will award myself a medal of merit
- for the skills I acquire. - This is not the right time.
What's wrong with giving it a chance?
- You don't know him well enough. - Come on, cousin, why not?
Make sure I don't have to regret it.
I promise you!
It's time to get back on the road.
There are no roads here, you have to be very careful.
With or without a road it's the same for me.
We will get there before you can say Greensraken volcano.
- Greensraken volcano. - Just that.
I entered the coordinates of the tea field.
Let's move!
- Yes, but in moderation! - Trap!
I need some spare parts.
They won't be coming anytime soon because of the volcano.
- Yes I've heard. - This is good news.
- Indeed, very good news. - What do you mean?
That we will go on foot.
I will be able to get the hiker medal.
Let's get moving then!
Wouldn't you have a snowmobile to rent for us?
No, I just hired the last one to a very nasty girl!
- Sally! -And to her shady friend!
The best I can do is rent sledges for you.
- I don't know if that's the case ... - Let's get them!
Still missing a lot? We've been walking for hours!
Watch!
Someone who looks like me drew her face
like I did today. - Oh, no! I can not believe!
- We walked in circles! - Don't jump to conclusions.
Oh no! We walked in circles!
We can no longer afford to waste any more time!
Benjamin, from now on you will be the navigator.
I have already awarded myself the navigator medal
and I have no intention of returning it.
You will be the leader of the expedition.
- I'll just be a navigator. - Perfect!
I will do the guide.
It's on the other side.
I knew it!
I was testing you.
What are those moldy scamorza up to?
They walk in circles.
I wish Stilton would get a move
on and serve him so we can get out.
Have you prepared the text?
A little while ago we heard Geronimo Stilton tell us
of an impending volcanic eruption.
We of the Gazzetta del ratto have reason to believe
that the news is a phony and specious hoax.
In other words, not credible.
We believe Geronimo Stilton's reputation
is damaged due to this embarrassing mistake.
Perfect, good Marameo!
Thanks to me Geronimo Stilton's reputation will end ...
in fondue!
Hello, little one! How are you?
We have to walk a long way to get to Tea's field.
We don't spend too much time on bird watching.
Cucci cucci cucci! They're so cute!
And in danger of extinction, so be careful.
It is the ideal time to learn about nature.
Puffin: A bird with short wings and a short tail
that can both fly and swim.
There is even a nest!
- And inside there is a nice egg! - Do not touch it!
What do you want to happen to me?
Here she says that the puffin is kind and harmless.
Eh eh! Oh!
Aah!
They are attacking me!
But weren't they harmless?
"As long as you don't disturb their nests and their young!"
We've been on the road for hours but Tea is still a long way off.
We need to find it before the volcano erupts.
There is something odd about that smoke.
Let's go guys!
Ah!
-You have the wrong way again! - At least it was quick.
Why do they keep moving away from the volcano?
Because they are hopeless scamorza.
What if we give it a push in the right direction?
I was afraid you never asked me.
- How I love the snowball effect! - Me too!
My belly is rumbling, it must be lunchtime.
- The volcano is erupting! - How strange!
The amount of smoke emitted has not changed!
If the volcano was erupting, the lava would slide down.
Now I will earn the survival medal.
Run!
So, snowball no ...
Big snowball no, huge snowball ...
Monstrous snowball ... oh!
Found it! Run!
Geronimo, have you ever been in the Brave Explorers?
Run!
- This time we were close. - We lost our supplies.
We have a video camera, check this out.
No!
Oh no!
Now they have lost their video camera too.
- Do you know what that means? - Who will be filming with cell phones.
But no, brains in fondue!
Who will not be able to shoot a report on the volcano.
No video, no broadcast.
- You understood? - I got it.
Now get busy.
Traces in the snow. Maybe I'm from Tea!
The field is not far away.
Look, uncle! There's a video camera over there.
It is still functional.
It's a really weird place for a snowman.
I found the tea field!
Good boy!
There are two types of footprints.
One appears to belong to Tea and the other resembles that of ...
Aah!
This will perhaps put them back on the right track!
Because I always have to be the one behind.
- Stop a minute! Stop! - We're out of harm's way now.
Thanks to my cool head as a leader of the group.
You ran in circles and screamed like an eagle.
No, I ran in a zigzag pattern
to confuse the bear.
It is what is called the competence of a leader.
Come to think of it, that couldn't be a real bear.
Polar bears do not live in Freezerland.
- So what was it? - What or who rather.
- Do you think it was a person? - I think someone
is trying to push us in the direction of the volcano.
- But why? Great question.
Can I see the camera?
When you found it, the recording light was on.
If my suspicion is well founded, someone left it there.
And he didn't realize he was recording.
Geronimo Stilton's reputation will be damaged
as a result of this embarrassing mistake.
- Have you heard? - Bravo, Marameo!
Geronimo Stilton's reputation will end in fondue!
They are Sally and Marameo Sfacciotto.
- Were they wearing a bear costume? - They tricked me!
They earned the medal as animal imitators.
But why push us towards the volcano?
Looks like they're trying to damage my reputation.
This can only mean one thing.
What's the matter with your photos from the last carnival party?
No, the volcano story is as bogus as the bear story.
- They set a trap for us. - What about the smoke coming out of the crater?
- That looks real. - Undoubtedly.
But neither of you notice anything unusual?
- It seems to follow a pattern. - Not just any pattern.
A code ... Morse code! Here we go!
What are you up to now?
Only a stracchino brain would climb there!
- Wasn't that what you wanted? - No, smoked cheese!
I wanted him to do a service
and this is usually done at a safe distance.
If they go up there, they will understand that the story of the eruption
is a hoax and that we are behind it!
We have a problem, I'm almost at the top.
Here we go!
Aah!
Can you explain to me what Morse code has to do with it?
Morse code was used by telegraphers
to send messages before the telephone was invented.
Each letter of the alphabet is represented by dots or lines.
Three short puffs of smoke
followed by three longer ones and then three more short ones ...
it reads SOS!
Isn't that a distress call?
The one you throw when you are in danger.
- Yes, right. - Now I'm confused!
- Does the volcano need help? - Not the volcano, Trap.
- Someone inside the crater. - Aunt Tea!
Tea!
- I'm down here, in the crater! - How are you?
- All right? - Yes I'm fine.
But I can't get out!
Hold on! Here it is!
Medal for safe knots and rescue. Said and done!
I throw the rope at you so you can climb!
I am forging ahead.
I'll need another sash to put the medals on.
- Trap! - I arrive!
- What are you doing down there? - Forget it.
- Get help! - I already have the relief medal.
- Trap! - Agree.
We'll get two relief medals.
I saw that the volcano was smoking and I came to check.
- But I slipped into it. - Oh, Tea!
You shouldn't have come that close to the crater.
True, but I'm glad I did
because I discovered something very interesting.
- A smoke machine? - What? You knew it?
I get it from your Morse code signals,
from the fact that the volcano hasn't been active for centuries,
- and from Sally's recording. - Sally?
Iuu! Someone called me?
How did you all manage to end up in the volcano?
- We know everything about your plan! - Actually, I don't.
Sometimes I don't understand you, Stilton.
I served you a story on a silver platter
and you spent the day running away from the scoop.
- But how did you come up with it? - I had to find Tea!
No story is more important than my family!
- You're such a weird mouse. - Do not fool yourself!
I won't be spreading news about fake volcanic eruptions,
so now help us get out of here.
Very gladly.
If you promise not to flag the four cheeses
- our misunderstanding. - I can not do that.
You terrified the people of Freezerland
with your made-up story.
I will inform everyone of the truth and now that I have found Tea
my priority goes back to journalism.
Well then stay there.
No one will ever believe your story.
It's too far-fetched!
Geronimo Stilton's reputation will end in fondue!
- Give me that tape! - Come and get it.
Drop me into the crater right now!
Wouldn't it be better if you were the one to drop me?
Are you saying I'm too heavy?
- Of course not! - I'm on my way, Stilton.
I don't want to be in your shoes when I'm over there.
Aah!
Look what you've done.
Look what I found!
Or perhaps it is more correct to say what he found me.
The only way to make sure it worked was to test it.
- He's really cool! - We are safe!
Let me take care of the landing.
I am a real ace in these maneuvers.
Don't touch that lever!
Everything is fine!
I am happy to inform you that there is no danger
of impending eruptions.
The dangers of global warming and pollution are real.
Freezerland has introduced a new plan
whereby those who spread false alarms
are invited to pay their debt to society
- by taking care of the territory. - Is this garbage?
Oh!
Aah!
We will keep you informed on the progress of the operation.
It's all from Geronimo Stilton for Rodent's Echo!
