My Dance Of Eternity
"Good news Everyone!" Professor Farnsworth announced. "You will be delivering this special package to the planet of Zeta 23.6."
The 160-year-old professor held up a small little package wrapped up in strong cellophane. Fry, Leela, and Bender barely could see what was inside.
"What's in the package?" Fry
asked.
"It's nothing you know and
shouldn't know about!" Professor screamed.
"Yeah, Fry!" Bender said as
he threw his beer bottle at him.
"Ow! What'd you do that for! I
bet you would wanna know what's in the package too!"
"Yeah but I just felt like hitting
ya."
"Cut it out, you idiots!"
Leela yelled. "We've got a package to deliver and I don't want
you guys to start fussing each other!"
After that, Leela took the package and left the TV room.
"What's her problem?" Fry asked his friend.
"I don't know, meat bag, and I don't care." Bender replied as he pulled a cigar from his case. "I don't know about you, but I'm gonna continue this package delivering crap so I can get back and watch TV." Bender lit his cigar and walked out of the room.
"As for me, well I guess I got better things to do than to watch you go about your job as a irresponsible professional like yourself. Toodle-loo!" the professor said to Fry.
"Wrinkled up parakeet moth."
Fry mumbled.
"Thank you!"
After replying to the insult, Professor Farnsworth walked away as Fry left to the Planet Express Ship.
"Such a nice delivery boy, and yet, so out of place... oh well!"
The Planet Express Ship was heading out right into space. Leela was fully concentrating on her driving and on the mission. During her focusing, Fry walked in the room, wondering if she is feeling well.
"Why were you acting so mad at us
back there, Leela?"
"I wasn't mad, I was just tired of
how wild you and Bender can be these days."
"We're not wild. We're just
sometimes like that way."
"Fry, I don't want to mess up this
mission this time, okay? So, I think you should just rest a little."
"I think you need rest."
"Look Fry, We've got other things to do and a package to deliverer. Maybe you should go to sleep for the rest of the trip to get you started. That way you don't have to wake up whining when you stayed up all night trying to prank Bender."
"That could be arranged."
"What?"
"Good-night, Leela."
"Uh, good-night Fry."
Then Fry walked into his room in the ship.
In the morning, the ship finally reached to the planet of Zeta 23.6. They were close to the kingdom of where the leader was. Fry volunteered to take the package over to the kingdom.
"You're just gonna look what's
inside aren't ya?" Leela said.
"No I'm not! I'm just doing my job
for your information!" he exclaimed.
"Someday you'll get fired, and
we'll see who gets the big job." Bender said.
"I wouldn't count on it." he
replied.
On his way, Fry looked around the whole kingdom. It was so lavishly decorated. More of a silver and gold sort of speak. Lots of tie die rugs and blankets.
"Wow...it looks like Charlamagne's
place. I've hit the jackpot!" he exclaimed.
"You there! Quit yelling and
approach my room!" a guy yelled.
It was the leader. He had on a brown, leather vest and a turquoise sleeveless. Fry thought that he was a hippie, but he didn't suppose he really was. His hair was short and brown, and he wore no shoes. He had a pendant of a peace sign around his neck.
"Are you a hippie?" Fry
asked.
"You wish. I am Bryant, leader of
Zeta 23.6. Thy name means strong and honorable, so do not despair."
"Why should I? I just came to
deliverer this package."
"Oh very clever. Well, hand it
over boy."
"It's Fry."
"Whatever."
Fry handed the leader the package. Bryant was ready to open the cellophane covered gift that still stayed a mystery.
"What's inside?" Fry asked.
"Why do you think I'm opening
this?"
"Okay okay. I was just curious."
Bryant opened the package. It was a small, black case. They both took a glimpse at it. The leader opened it to reveal a beautiful necklace. It wasn't pearls, but it was full of diamonds. On the other end of the necklace, it was a heart shaped pendant. It was written 'My Love' on it.
"It's beautiful. Is it for you?" Fry asked.
"Hell no! It's for my beautiful girlfriend. She's right over there." Bryant said as he pointed to a woman picking flowers from a field.
She had long, blonde curly hair. Her eyes were bright brown, and she had a flowered head-band. She had on beige sandals, white tank top, and cerulean jeans.
"Wow..." Fry gazed.
"Her name is Meadow. It stands for her personality: Beautiful Field. We've been together for so long, I gave her everything her heart desired. And I think that this necklace is too much for her."
"What are you gonna do with it
now?"
"I don't know. So do you have a
girl?"
"No. But there is one girl I do love, but she thinks I'm a jerk. I just wanted her to know how I feel, but she won't give me a chance."
"My Word... here." Bryant
said as he handed Fry the case.
"What are you doing?"
"I know how much you love your
girl. So take this to show her you love her."
"Thanks. But will Meadow know
about this?"
"Not necessarily. She knows love
when she sees it."
"... Well thanks a million
Bryant."
"No prob."
"Well, I better be going. Oh,
there's something I wanted to ask you: What do you do in your
civilization?"
"If you know that Free Waterfall Junior, you know what we are doing here.""You mean trying to stop people from eating animals, right? Like a hippie."
"Almost likely. We're just acting like hippies, but we're actually carnivores. You know, just to let those smelly hippies to leave us alone."
"And yet you had to live your life
like a bunch of freaks."
"What a waste."
