Fan Fic: Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?



You track Connor Tist to Vatican City. It is a sovereign city-state founded in 1929 that has a population of only 900 people, mostly clergymen. Its unique economy is primarily supported by donations from Roman Catholics throughout the world and the sale of postage stamps, publications, souvenirs, and museum admission tickets. Vatican City is home to St. Peter's Square, a giant, open space directly in front of St. Peter's Basilica. The Basilica houses historical artwork and is one of the largest Christian churches in the world, as well as the burial site of Saint Peter. St. Peter's Square's main feature is the Egyptian obelisk, made of red granite and marking the Square's center.

Throngs of people are hanging out in St. Peter's Square. There's a particularly large crowd surrounding a singing group. You walk closer, and hear a familiar sound.



It's Rockapella!

"Connor Tist was here in town
but he did not stick around, no
He's taken Airport O'Hare
to the U.S.A. state where
Coca-Cola was invented,
Americans have nicknamed it
the Peach State, and it shares its name with
a country in Western Asia...YEAH!"

The crowd cheers and claps.

Rockapella says to you, "Good luck finding Connor Tist!"

You thank Rockapella and turn around to leave.

As you are walking away, you hear someone behind you ask, "Should we sing it?"

The eager crowd shouts in unison, "DO IT ROCKAPELLA!"

"Well she sneaks around the world from Kiev to Carolina
She's a sticky-fingered filcher from Berlin down to Belize
She'll take you for a ride on a slow boat to China
Tell me, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

Steal their Seoul in South Korea, make Antarctica cry 'Uncle,'
From the Red Sea to Greenland they'll be, singing the blues
Well, they never Arkansas her steal the Mekong from the jungle
Tell me, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

Botswana to Thailand, Milan via Amsterdam, Mali to Bali, Ohio and back!

Well, she'll ransack Pakistan and run a scam in Scandinavia,
Then she'll stick 'em up Down Under and go pick-pocket Perth
She put the Miss in misdemeanor when she stole the beans from Lima
Tell me, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

Woah, tell me, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Tell me, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? Where could she be

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?
Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?..."
