I have two weeks to write an adventure for a one-shot session that will be about 4 hours long. The PCs will be a group of 3-5 pixies with various class levels (effective level around 5-6, probably). I doubt they'll be standard pixies, as I haven't decided what I want them to be able to do, but they'll fly at least a bit, and be about 6" tall, and each will have some innate pixie-ish ability or two.
The general idea is that they live in a tree behind a wizard's house/tower/whatever. The wizard hasn't been seen in a few days, and then the wizard's cat familiar comes to the pixies and says something to the effect of "My master went into his lab 3 days ago and hasn't come out. I can't "hear" him and I'm scared. Since I have no hands, I need help. Come on."
Since the wizard has helped the pixie community in the past, they should buy in to a rescue mission. What I need to come up with is challenges for the pixies. What happened to the wizard? What do the pixies need to do to rescue him?
Playing fast and loose with the rules is fine - I want a fun, high action plot with lots of chances for roleplay and a bit of goofiness. This group is a mixed bunch skill-wise (1 newbie, 1 hasn't played in years, 1 kinda knows the rules but doesn't play often, and at least 1 very experienced player) but we're all eager to have a fun lighthearted game.
So throw me some ideas!
