A/N: This is the new, improved version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It's basically the same as the one that USED to be on here (and if I ever find out who reported me the first time when I didn't even do anything wrong… grrr…), but I changed the format from script to… paragraph, or whatever you call this, plus I deleted the Party chapter and one or two scenes that were more… how should I say this… they made more sense when I wrote them the first time… Well, you'll figure it out. If you want my "outtakes" so to speak, just email me, and I'll send them to you. And if you're wondering why I'm reposting this fic now, let's just say… I'm leading up to something. You'll find out what it is… when I'm ready. Until then, enjoy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Take II!
Himizu stood in the middle of a newly constructed building that resembled a movie-making studio. Various strange items that seemed to have no possible use lay around the place, but Himizu seemed oblivious to the mess as she smiled at the camera.
"Okay, call me crazy, but I've decided to do a parody of Monty Python and the Holy Grail!"
"YOU'RE CRAZY!" Ryouko and Saru exclaimed, suddenly appearing on either side of the girl (the better to confuse her).
"HOW DARE YOU CALL ME CRAZY?" cried Himizu.
"YOU TOLD US WE COULD!" her friends yelled back.
"I did? When?"
"At the beginning of the fic…"
Himizu reread the first two paragraphs. "Oh… I did… I didn't mean for you to take it literally!"
"-.- BAKA!" the two other girls exclaimed.
Himizu rolled her eyes. "Christ… I need better friends… Anywho, this is a parody of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The definition of a parody is a literary or musical work imitating the characteristic style of some other work or a writer or composer in a satirical or humorous way. For those of you who aren't literary geniuses and have no idea what I just said, it means to take something and make fun of it, making it even funnier.
"It also means a poor or weak imitation…" Ryouko reminded her.
"-.- SHUT THE HELL UP!" Himizu screamed.
Ryouko was thrown against the wall by the force of Himizu's yelling. "Ow…"
Himizu cackled like a maniac. "FEAR ME!"
"-.-; Shut up…" Saru exclaimed, smacking Himizu with a whiffle bat.
"Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Himizu laughed.
Saru sweatdropped, then smacked Himizu with a club.
"Owie… Pain… Hurt… Pain… Did I mention that I was in pain?" Himizu asked, clutching her head in agony.
"No, I think you forgot that part…" Ryouko said sarcastically.
"Oh… Well, I'm in pain." Himizu evidently had not noticed the sarcasm.
Ryouko and Saru smacked their foreheads simultaneously.
Himizu grinned sheepishly. "Heh heh heh… Why don't you just read?"
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho, I do not own the rights to Monty Python, but I am the proud owner of a copy of the Monty Python and the Holy Grail DVD, which Saru so kindly gave me for my birthday! Yay! And if you sue me, I shall not give up my DVD! I shall instead give you my trigonometry book because I hate math.
Himizu was running around in circles, totally hysterical. "OH MY GOD! WE'RE BEHIND SCHEDULE! WHERE'S MY CLIPBOARD! WHERE'S MY MOUNTAIN DEW! WHERE ARE MY ASSISTANTS! AND WHERE THE HELL IS MY DIRECTOR'S CHAIR!"
"You don't have a director's chair, Himizu no baka," Ryouko told her.
"And you just started writing two minutes ago, so how can we be behind schedule already?" Saru asked.
"Good point… but not the point. Let's give everybody their scripts and maybe film a scene before I get totally pissed off and order my singing ferrets to kill them all." Himizu handed scripts to her assistants/friends/cohorts/partners in crime.
"Yes ma'am…" Ryouko and Saru said, making crazy signs behind her back.
A Little Later
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT!" cried Yusuke.
"You don't like it?" Himizu asked.
"Why is Koenma the main character?" Yusuke demanded.
Himizu lifted an eyebrow. "Because he's the closest thing to a king I've got and I don't like you."
"You're evil."
"I do my best. Now are you guys going to start acting or am I going to have to beat the living shit out of you?"
The answer came in the form of inaudible mumbling. Himizu's eyes began to glow red.
"I can't hear you…"
The Cast lifted the volume to a whisper. "Yes ma'am…"
"-.- Run."
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed the Cast, for once taking the girl's advice.
"Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" she laughed, chasing them with bombs.
"It's Karasu all over again!" cried Kurama.
"I heard that," the crown demon exclaimed.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" screamed Kurama.
"Karasu? What the hell is the crow doing here?" asked Ryouko.
"Well, Bui needs to kill somebody… and Karasu seemed the most deserving…" Himizu smirked slightly as she said this.
"BUI! BUI!" Ryouko ran off happily in search of Bui.
"Hiei, go fetch her!" Himizu exclaimed.
"Why?" he asked.
"Because. Do it."
"Make me."
"Fine." She pulled out a clown wig, a pink shirt, and a matching skirt.
"O.O You are twisted," Hiei yelped.
"Damn straight! Now, begin the credits!"
Crickets chirped.
"We're doomed…" Himizu said with a sigh.
A Random Narrator Dude walked out and stood in the middle of the filming area. "We are now about to present one of the most hilarious films ever created in the history of the earth, and we're about to make it even better thanks to the deranged talents of Himizu the Almighty Authoress whose insanity is said to make even the most rational person a raving madman after only ten seconds of her company and…"
Both of Himizu's eyebrows bounced up towards her hairline. "That's sweet of you to say, but I didn't hire you for the compliments… Let's get back to the story before I sic my stampeding wombats on you."
"Yes ma'am!" yelped the Random Narrator Dude. "Anyways, we are proud to present to you… Monty Python and the Holy Grail!"
"CUT!" Himizu yelled. The Cast, the Random Narrator Dude, Ryouko, and Saru looked at her quizzically. She smiled. "Cookie break!" Everyone did an Anime fall.
A/N: I will update this fic pretty often, I hope. Basically, whenever I finish revising a chapter, I hope to post it. We'll see how this goes. Hope you all enjoy! Review please! Ja ne!
