[It is about 11:55AM. Mariye is sleeping on her fouton. Seifer, Squall,
Zell, Selphie, Quistis, Rinoa, Raijin, Fujin, and Irvine are hovering
over her head. Seifer is looking at the clock every few seconds.]

Seifer: What is with her? I thought that mother of her's said
she woke up at noon.

Rinoa: We have to give her the benefit of the doubt. Its not noon
yet.

Zell: Know what? I wonder if that water trick works. [gives a pondering
look.]

Raijin: [walks to a cage on the other side of the room.] Hey, lookit
the cute little dwarf hamster. Its sweet, ya know. [Raijin reaches in
and grabs the hamster by one leg. It squeeks and bites him.] OUCH!

Fujin: FUNNY!

Mariye: huh? wha? lemme have five more minutes...

Seifer: Yeah, sure, wake up sleeping beauty, we gotta talk to you.

Mariye: [squints 1 eye open and shuts it.] It has to be a dream.

Selphie: C'mon, get up up up!

Squall: I bet five bucks she's Dr. Seuss's daughter.

Irvine: 5 here says she's the daughter of Odine.

Quistis: Ooooh, good diss Irvine. [exchanges high five w/him.]

Selphie: Least I'm not a womanizing cowboy dork! Guess you prove you
don't have to be a four year old to play dress up.

Irvine: Oh yeah? Look at that dress! Hoochie!

Selphie: Who you callin a hoochie? I could beat your butt Little Man?

Irvine: WhA?

Quistis: I'd be a bad instructor if I didn't step in now. [comes
between them.]

Seifer, Squall, Raijin, and Zell: Aw, we wanna see 'em fight!

Rinoa: [Looks at Quistis and Fujin and shakes her head.] Men.

Fujin: YEAH.

Mariye: huh wha? what're you guys doing here? its my day off. you
promised you'd stay away and let me sleep. go home. [covers her head
with a pillow.]

Quistis: We all thought you'd want to spend your day off with us.

Seifer: Yeah, now where's the stash of 3 musketeers and Twix that you
always hide in here... [goes to all the shelves and dressers in
Mariye's room.]

Raijin: Hey look! Fish! I like fish ya know! [taps the glass. he
reaches for the fish food and takes out a few flakes and sprinkles
them in the tank. A guppy jumps up and bites his finger.] Ow ow ow ow!

[Raijin runs to Fujin. She is on the floor laughing.]

Squall: Seifer! Check her closet too! [goes to help with the candy
hunt.]

Zell: Hmmm, a fish tank filled with water... [runs out to get a bowl
from the kitchen.]

Irvine: Hey, whose side are you guys on, Selphie said you all sided
with her during our fight. Did you?

Everyone except Mariye: Oh yeah.

Irvine: Dang it. Fine, be that way. I'll just sit in this bean bag
chair and sleep.

Selphie: Thanks everyone, I love you!

Rinoa: Mariye, don't you wanna get up and spend the WHOLE day with us?

Quistis: Hey Fujin, Rinoa, Selphie! She has a whole lotta stickers!
Cute ones with Disney people and cutesy Japanese designs! [Quistis
takes a box out of Mariye's desk.]

Selphie, Rinoa, and Fujin: Cool!

Raijin: Why don't animals and fishies like me? I like them, ya know.
[starts sobbing.]

Mariye: [stumbles to her feet. she walks to her cybiko. she then
plops down next to her stereo and turns it on. mumbles.] Just my idea
of a vacation day. Being annoyed by characters. Weekends I can handle,
but on my day off of school? Ugh, no. No consideration. And I thought
they were good. Even though I was gonna get up soon. Still. I have
plans and I was gonna see that movie with my friends. I'll show
them...

Zell: [runs back in w/a bowl filled with warm water.] Aw, Mariye,
you're up. Darn. Hmm... Irvine's asleep...

Mariye: Not when he's on my bean bag you won't.

Zell: Darn. [he throws the bowl onto Irvine.]

Irvine: Eeew, I'm all wet.

Mariye: Uh huh, here we go. [cybiko text program loads, Mariye starts
typing...]

'All of a sudden there was a flash of light and Zell, Irvine, Quistis,
Rinoa, Squall, Seifer, Raijin, Fujin, and Selphie disappeared and
teleported back to their Garden. And they all lived happily ever
after.'

[Mariye turns off her cybiko and looks around her now empty room.]

Mariye: Finally back to normal. Never underestimate the power of a
writer.
