IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!

Tori: Yep! I'm super hyper after eating Zashi's chocolate-covered mochi, so I think I'll totally disregard all responsibilities on my shoulder and have some fun with my fellow authors and my favorite Gundam people! *snaps fingers and Talon, Stanton, Taro, Shan-chan, Shiro Kitsune, Lady, Nueva, Relena, Heero, Duo, Trowa, Quatre, and Wu Fei appear*

Duo & Relena: Where's Duet!?

Tori: I said "favorite Gundam people", didn't I?

Duo & Relena: *lips tremble*

Tori: Whatever. *snaps fingers and Duet appears* I'm not to happy with you right now though… My e-mail box is full after that little prank of yours…

Duet: *innocent grin*

Talon: Hey! Are you working on my challenge?

Tori: 'Course, Talon-kun! It sounds like a great idea! And it must have been cool to fast for such a great cause.

Talon: …I'm hungry…

Taro: Amen to that, brother.

Stanton: Luckily, I brought this great green soda!

My fellow classmate whips out an unmarked bottle of soda which is, in fact, green, and pours all the authors and charas a cup.

Quatre:  Oooh! O.o* It's green! *sloshes it around in cup*

Lady: That's probably not normal…

Stanton: It won't hurt'cha!

Lady: No, I mean that… *points to Relena and Duet who are kissing on the couch next to her*

All: *megasuperhugecolossalsweatdrop*

Shan-chan: Do they… do that often? *gulp*

Nueva: Get a room!

Nueva throws a lamp at them, which happens to be the only light in the room. The bulb shatters satisfyingly against Duet's head, but with her consciousness goes the light*

All sans Duet: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Taro: Quatre, get your hand off my leg.

Quatre: My hand's not on your leg.

Taro: Then whose hand is this? *pinches hand*

Nueva: Ouch!

Taro: Alright, then it can stay.

Everyone: *sweatdrop*

Wu Fei: It must be really hot in here. We seem to be sweating a lot…

Tori: Yeah, it is kinda hot in here, isn't it?

Stanton: AH-HA! Found you my precious green Dr. Pepper-ish soda!

Relena: *tears in eyes* I really don't think you had to hit her.. *pokes Duet with her toe*

Shiro: Oh please.. No one wanted to see that.

Heero: I did.

Duo: So did I.

Wu Fei: Two onna? Yeah.

Trowa: I admit, it was mildly interesting.

Quatre: Actually, quite amusing.

Talon: Quite.

Stanton: Heh, I agree.

Taro: Why'd you make them stop!?

All the guys burst out crying and the girls shoot them disgusted looked.

Tori: Wait, I just wrote them doing that…

Shan-chan: *smacks Tori upside the head* MORON!

Tori: *pretending not to know English* Domo arigatou gozaimasu. *big grin*

Shan-chan: …that hell's wrong with her?

Stanton: Meh. She's always like that.

Tori: Nihongo ga hanasemasuka?

Stanton: Hai. *to everyone else* She's going to keep this up until the lights go back on.

Taro: Is that what she said?

Stanton: No, she asked if I spoke Japanese… I just know from experience.

Shiro: So, um… Yeah. It's still dark.

All: *blink blink*

Talon: Where do we go from here?

Duo: We must go on an epic quest to find a new light bulb!

All: *blink blink*

Duo: You guys got something in your eyes?

*five minutes of aimless stumbling later…*

Shiro: I've got the light bulbs!

All: Yaaaaaay!

Suddenly, the floorboards creak and a malicious laughter fills their ears. The authors, authoresses, and charas freeze in terror.

Duo: Duet, cut the crap.

Duet: Awww…

Relena: She's conscious again! *glomps Duet*

Tori: Watashi wa tabako o suimasen.

Talon: What'd she say?

Stanton: She said she doesn't smoke.

Heero: *lights Tori's shoe on fire* Now she does…

Tori: Tasukete! Isha ga hitsuyoo desu! Kyuukyuusha o yonde kudasai! *runs in circles*

Stanton: *deadpan* Help. I need a doctor. Get an ambulance.

Heero: I know. I speak Japanese, remember?

Tori: O-kanjoo o onegaishimasu… *passes out and Trowa squirts her with fire extinguisher*

Stanton: Check please…

Lady: She kept it up all through that? O.o

Shiro: *puts new light bulb back in and the room lights up again*

Shan-chan: …where did Taro and Nueva go?

Talon: Where did Relena and Duet go?

Wu Fei: Where did Heero and Duo go?

Tori: *jumps to feet, slightly crispy* I DON'T LIKE THAT PAIRING!

Quatre: Everyone else does…

Tori: *sweatdrop* Peer pressure… *cowers in corner*

Stanton: *laughs* I can only imagine what she was like in high school…

Heero, Duo, Taro and Nueva walk back in, followed by a slightly-miffed looking Relena and Duet.

Taro: *whispers to Talon* Guess who's got a new favorite hobby?

Relena: *bashes the British Punisher over the head with a chair*

Duo: *gathers the other Gundam boys in a huddle* I don't think we're getting enough air-time in this fic…

Trowa: I agree. There are too many authors and authoresses to deal with.

Heero:  Then the solution is simple. *sparkle in eyes* We eliminate them…

The conversation dissolves into whispers and when the huddle breaks up, Quatre clears his throat. The room goes silent and all eyes are on him.

Quatre: *fake enthusiasm* O my God! I think there's an anime convention in the basement! *flings open the basement door*

Authors/esses: *suspicious looks*

Duo: There's pocky…!

Authors/esses: WAI!!! *charge through door and Trowa slams it shut behind them.

Lady: There's no anime convention down here…

Shiro: There's no pocky down here, either…

Taro: That was bloody mean.

Tori: Guys! I think I found a Duo cosplayer!

Talon: Tori, that's a mop.

Shan-chan: I can't see…

Stanton: Hellooo, Lady!

Nueva: TARO! HELP ME!

Stanton: Erp, hello, Nueva… Eh heh… *SLAP!*

*in the house*

Duo: Who's up for Frisbee!?

Relena: Me!

Wu Fei: Over here, Maxwell!

Heero: Hn. You couldn't catch it. This way!

Trowa: …!

Quatre: Oh! Me!

Duet: *jumps over couch* MEEEEEE!

Duo wings a cd at Duet for her to catch, but it flies through her hands a shatters against the wall.

All: *blink blink*

Duo: S'ok. There are a whole bunch more over here.

*in the basement*

[A/N: Kay, so I don't really have a basement… T__T]

Taro and Talon are working hard on the door's lock while the others sit in a circle singing old prison songs when a noise catches Tori's ear.

Tori: JIMMY BUFFET!!! *jumps to her feet and shoulders the door open* *sees her cd on the floor in pieces and goes ZERO* ARE YOU IDIOTS INSANE!?

Trowa: Now, listen, Tori… Let's be rational… Give us at least a five minute head start.

Tori: You. Killed. Jimmy. Buffet. There will be no mercy for you.

Others: O.o***************

            Before Tori can get Trowa in her death grip, the front door flies open and a mysterious figure is silhouetted in its frame.

???: Looking for one of these? *holds up a Jimmy Buffet Greatest Hits cd*

All: *blink blink*

???: *steps into the light and we see she's none other than Dorothy Catalonia*

Duet:  *catches her breath*

Dorothy: *tosses the cd on the couch and smiles seductively at the braided girl* I've come to get you, my precious…

Talon: *whispering to the other authors/esses* I'm getting a creepy LOTR feeling…

Duet: *shakes off Relena's grip on her arm* Coming, my lady… *blank eyes*

Dorothy: *grabs Duet's wrist when she comes close enough* Let's go…

Relena: NO! She's mine! *grabs Duet's other wrist*

Heero: *lays hand on Relena's shoulder* This is amusing. Let them go…

Relena: *lets go and sobs against Talon's chest*

Dorothy: *wicked smile* Now, precious, we make out exit. *jerks Duet into a kiss*

Duet: *kisses Dorothy, then collapses unconscious in her arms*

Shan-chan: *whispers* Isn't anyone gonna help her?

Stanton: Naw, she's enjoying it…

Dorothy: *walks out the door, supporting Duet with one arm* Ta-ta! *slams door shut*

All: *ker-blinkies*

Shiro: Does that happen often?

Heero: Often enough…

Tori: *happily clutching cd and dancing like an idiot* I LIKE MINE WITH LETTUCE AND TOMATO! HEINZ 57 AND FRENCH FRIED POTATO! BIG KOSHER PICKLE AND A COLD GLASS OF BEER! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY, WHICH WAY DO I STEER!? CHEESEBURGER In paradise… *trails off as the other authors/esses lock her in the basement again*

Quatre: I think that's the only song she knows…

Tori: *muffled by door* …fins to the left… fins to the right…

Quatre: I stand corrected…

~*~Owari~*~

I apologize to all the authors I used in this fic.

[insert awkward silence here]

…no, I don't…

Hehehe… *still in basement that doesn't exist* O.o* GUYS! GUYS! I'M SORRY! LET ME OUT! GUYS!?!? HELLOOOOOO!?
