Poof Chronicles Oneshots
Battle for the Ages.
"I challenge you to a dance battle!"
Lance paused the game and looked coolly over at Pen, who's finger was millimeters away from his nose, posed like some sort of drama queen. Well, she was one.
"…Excuse me, Nave?"
"Oh. No. He. Di-int." Phantom snapped, and Kahmelion got her popcorn.
"You hath heard me! Have at thee, coward!" Pen managed, with a giggle or two.
"This should be interesting." Octus also looked up from the game he and Lance had been playing, setting his controller on the end table. Illana looked up from her magazine, a shocked stare.
Lance got up and in her face. "You dare challenge me to a dance battle?" He said, crossing his arms over his puffed-out chest out and smirking.
Pen did just the same, unfazed. "Yes, I do dare! I just said that!"
Lance tossed down his controller. "Alright then, en garde, nitwit!"
"Thou shalt eat thine words, pretty boy!"
"Should we intervene?" Illana asked Kahmelion. She simply went on munching her popcorn. "Heck no! This is getting good."
"Octus, fire up the WII!" Pen pointed her finger in the air. "The glorious battle begins!...Do you bite your thumb at me, sir?"
"I do bite my thumb, lady nitwit," Lance replied, "You take it as you wish."
"Oh, it's ON like DONKEY KONG!" Cue "Take Me Out"
And so the grueling battle began. They clashed dance moves through the songs, on the battlefield of "Just Dance 2." It went on for hours. Pen dominated Call Me, Proud Mary, Raining Men, and Wake Me Up Before you Go Go. But Lance totally killed The Shoop Shoop Song, Viva Las Vegas, Girlfriend, Hey Ya, and Walk Like an Egyptian. Pen had been creamed in some of her favorite songs! However, when all seemed lost, Pen unleashed "Firework" and once again triumphed. Then, the final song came on. In this fiery duet, their skills were matched, it seemed like a toss-up between the skilled fighter and the nerd warrior. When all of a sudden-
"Quien sera el que me quiere a mi
Quien sera
Quien sera
Quien sera el que me de su amor
Quien sera
Quien sera
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before
It begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth
Sway me now
Sway me smooth, Sway me now !"
BAM! They were done, and frozen in the finishing pose, they waiting for the scores to be tallied. On the edge of their seats, if they were sitting down, they awaited the results…
"I lost!" Lance's jaw dropped. Pen stared at the screen in disbelief.
"We BOTH lost…we lost to…Sweet3 and 0100111101001100?" The duo turned their heads around to find Illana and Octus in the same pose.
"Hey, It looked like fun." Illana grinned. Octus was locked on the screen. "Hold on. It seems another party also has a higher score. Dancers SuJuPWNS and WingMAN-ion each have a score of One million three hundred thousand sixty two…point five."
"Who?" Lance and Pen cocked an eyebrow. The whole group turned to see yet another party in the same position.
"Kahmelion! Phantom! You epic wins you…" Pen put her hands on her hips and shook her head.
"I sure am. Don't know about the pipsqueak though." Kahmelion sipped a Dr. Pepper. "Let's go get some fast food."
And THAT is why there are pumpkins on Halloween.
