(A/N) The title was actually supposed to be "The Misadventures of Bird-Brain and the Whiskered Wimp", but it wouldn't fit.
--Hello! I found this story in one of my notebooks that was lying around and decided to continue and post it. One of the characters, Skye, is based on myself. The other OC is based on a friend of mine.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything except my plotline - wherever that may be – and my OCs, Skye and Emily.

Chapter OneDING-DONG.
Skye flew down the hall and slid into the door. Literally.
"Ow…" she mumbled, stepping back and opening the door to find her best friend Emily doubled over in laughter.
"I…" Skye pointed to ther door, beginning to explain.
"I heard the crash," Emily interrupted her knowingly.
Skye just nodded and stepped aside so Emily could enter her house.
The minute Skye closed the door, Emily gripped her shoulders, looking her hard in the eyes.
"Can I…do something for you?" Skye asked warily.
"You did remember to tape it, didn't you?" Emily growled, eyes wide.
Skye's gaze wandered for a moment, then her eyes snapped back to focus. She closed her eyes and grinned.
"Of course I did!"
Emily's face suddenly filled with a look that could only be described as utter happiness and she flung her arms around the other girl, crushing her in her grip of doom.
"Emmy. I can't…breathe," Skye choked out.
"Whoops. Sorry!" Emily said cheerfully, releasing Skye from her strangle-hold.
"Okay!" Skye said, quickly recovering. "To the television!" With that, she led the way downstairs to their 'secret' spot.
Once inside the room, Emily leaped onto one of the cushiony couches and Skye made sure the right tape was in the VCR. Then, she sat down next to Emily and turned on the TV.
"It has begun," she stated, pushing the PLAY button.

Three hours later, Skye was fast-forwarding through those darn commercials.
"I'm so glad you invited me over, Skye," Emily mumbled. "This is the best day ever."
"Hey, my parents aren't home, Devon's gone, and I'd be bored out of my mind by myself," Skye replied. "I'm just glad I had all our favorite animes taped ahead of time." She grinned.
Emily grinned back. "I love you and your wonderful tapes."
"I love me and my wonderful tapes, too." She pushed PLAY and the tape began again.
"Don't you wish we could be there, in the TV show?" Skye said, staring at the screen.
"Yeah…," Emily answered.
Thunder suddenly crashed outside and the television screen blinked and went out. The two girls jumped in surprise, as the lights flickered.
"It's the apocalypse!" Skye shouted.
"Shut up, you idiot!" Emily screamed back, voice high in her terror. She smacked Skye upside the head.
"Ow…" Skye complained, rubbing her head and glaring at her friend. She got up off the couch and walked over to the TV, which had gone from black to blurry.
"What are you doing?" Emily asked, coming yp next to Skye.
"I don't think there was supposed to be rain today…" Skye mumbled, turning her head to look out the window. Rain was pouring from the sky, streaming down the window panes in small rivers.
Coming back down to Earth, Skye examined the TV.
"I hope it's not blown out," she murmured, crouching down to examine the wires.
"No, really, Skye. What are you doing?" Emily peered over her shoulder.
"I have no idea." Skye shook her head and stood up. She looked around, scratching the back of her neck. Then she walked over and stared at the blurry screen. She lifted her hand and reached her index finger toward it.
"What are you doing now?" Emily complained.
Skye glanced at her friend. "I'm poking the TV." She poked it.
"Why?" Poke.
"Because I can." Poke.
Suddenly, the lights flickered again. Emily shrieked in surprise. When she could see again, she looked around in confusion. Skye was nowhere to be seen.
"Skye?" Emily called. "Where are you?"
No answer.
Emily peered around again, but her gaze was drawn to the flickering television screen. She stepped closer and touched it. A shiver ran through her body. She prodded it again with her index finger. A dizziness washed over her.
Emily hesitated. "Three times…"she murmured and poked it again.
Then everthing went black.

--Okay, that's the first chapter. And yes, that is exactly how my friend and I act. I'm going to try to make the OCs as much like us as possible. Please R&R.
