For The Love of Loonatics
Ace concentrated, focusing his energy through his body. With his eyes closed, the background noises and the room he was in disappeared, leaving him alone with his conscious. Nothing could disrupt his calm, trance-like state……
"AAAAACCCCEEEE!!"
……..except that.
"Have you seen the remote? Rev's hidden it again! When I get my hands on that bird…He knows how much I love the Misty Breeze show!" Duck started hunting around. Cushions and random objects began flying around the room.
Ace sighed and turned to his black and orange suited friend. "No Duck. I haven't seen it. And would it hurt for you to keep it down for a little while? I'm kinda tryin' to meditate."
"Meditate shmeditate. Ace, you gotta help me find the remote! This could be a life or death situation! As in, my life needs Misty Breeze and I will kill Rev if I can't find the remote in time!"
Ace rolled his eyes. "Hey Duck, com'ere. Let me show you somethin' that will change your life." He stood and made his way over to the living area.
Duck followed closely behind. He paused and then gasped. "Wait, did Misty send a reply to my letters and emails that I've been sending her? I knew she'd agree to go out with me eventually."
Ace raised an eyebrow. "Ehhh…not exactly. Just…watch." he reached a hand up to the TV and pressed a button. The TV turned on and revealed the opening theme to The Misty Breeze Show.
Ducks eyes widened. "Wow Ace! That's amazing! How did you do that?"
A smirk crossed Ace's face. Oh, ya know, with the power button."
"Yeah, yeah. Well no more talking. She's gonna start singing her intro song." Duck launched onto the sofa and stared bug-eyed at the screen.
"Now dat is a sad sight." Ace mumbled to himself. He returned to his meditation pedestal and sat in a cross legged position. He closed his eyes and took on his relaxed state once more.
In the background, he heard a door slide open and closed again but chose to ignore it. That is, until he heard a soft humming coming from the person that had just entered the room. Ace opened one of his eyes and his gaze landed upon the curvaceous, blond bombshell that was Lexi. She was listening to music on her mp5000 whilst getting a soda from the fridge.
Ace couldn't help but smile as she danced out of the kitchen, soda in hand. If there was anyone that could catch his attention, just by walking into the room, it was Lexi.
Lexi stopped dancing and a pink light wrapped its way around her ears as she took out her headphones. A small frown settled on her face.
Ace noticed this and walked over to her. "What's up Lex? You pickin' up somethin'?"
Lexi looked at Ace and a lopsided grin graced her pretty features. "Yeah you could say that. It sounds like Rev has been in Tech's lab again….and I think he touched something. Incoming!"
A blur of red raced past the two bunnies, followed by an enraged coyote.
"Rev, you get back here! I'm not finished yelling at you! When are you going to learn the meaning of the words 'DON'T TOUCH'!? Grrr…when I get my hands on that bird…" Tech stomped out of the room in the direction Rev had gone, leaving the two rabbits staring in silence.
"Ooook, I guess Ducks not the only one out to get Rev." Ace mumbled to himself.
Lexi looked at him questioningly. "Why is Duck after Rev?"
Ace shrugged and grinned in his trademark lopsided fashion. "Don't ask. Something about the remote. Kinda tuned him out after a while."
Lexi laughed. "I wish I could. Super hearing is both a blessing and a curse." She looked at Duck who was sitting on the couch. "I take it you showed him where the on switch was?"
"He would have bugged me if I hadn't."
Lexi smiled at Ace, then her head whipped around to face the door. "O-oh. They're coming back."
Before Ace had time to reply, Rev shot into the room and circled them, building up a wall of red around them, before darting back out of the room. Tech followed quickly behind, carrying a plasma blaster. This time, he didn't stop to shout.
Ace stood dumbfounded and in his arms he was holding an equally stunned Lexi, bridal style. They looked at eachother, then back at the door their team mates had exited through. Only when they heard a loud "AHEM" behind them did they move. Ace turned to face a very amused looking Duck; Lexi still in his arms.
"Am I interupting something?"
Ace and Lexi looked at eachother and realized their...'situation'. He lowered Lexi down and blushed, scratching the back of his head nervously.
"Eh...well ya see...I err..." The male rabbit stuttered.
Duck was amazed. he'd never seen their witty and oh so fearless leader at a loss for words. He decided that he would leave them alone about it...for now. Besides, just seeing how embarassed Ace was gave him enough amusement.
"Well, what you two do in your spare time is up to you. Now, can't stay and chat. The commercial break is almost over." And with that, Duck turned and walked back over to the sofa, taking back his seat.
Lexi and Ace blushed. The awkward silence was broken by Zadavia's alarmringing through the tower. The bunnies sighed with relief and ran to their team table, where the others joined them. Ace pressed a button on the console and a holographic image of their boss appeared in the centre of the circular table. Each loonatic took a chair as Ace greeted Zadavia.
"Eh, what's up Zadavia? More trouble in the big city?"
"Im glad you asked Ace." her calm, official, voice replieed. "There are some suspicious activities regarding Pierre LePew that I would like you to investigate."
"Pierre? What do ya think he's up to this time? Anotha' fight to the finnish battle arena?" Ace questioned.
"That is what I need you to find out. His business office is downtown, next to the Acmetropolis Daily Times headquarters. See what information you can get and prevent him from doing anything that may endanger others.
"we're on it Zadavia." Ace's confidently assured her.She nodded.
"Zadavia out." Her image disappeared
Duck crossed his arms in an annoyed fashion. "Why can't she just say goodbye? It's not that hard. And why does she never acknowledge the work I put into this team?"
Lexi also crossed her arms and glanced at Duck with amusement. "Hard work you put into this team? All you do is look in the mirror and get on everyones nerves. But as you're our friend we have to put up with it."
The guys snickered as Duck glared at her muttering "you're dispicable" under his breath.
Ace got the team's attention again. "Right Loonatics, we've got a mission. Let's jet!"
