Luna: The question on everyone's mind must be this: With the ending of SURPRISE how could I have possibly made a sequel? Well…you'll just have to read and see. And if your reading this and haven't read SURPRISE yet, I suggest you stop reading NOW. To understand the humor in this story you have to read SURPRISE first! Okay, here's the 1st chapter!
Chapter 1: PANIC!
" What a weird dream…" muttered Allen, " Everyone was in it, too. I wish the last part was true, though…"
He rubbed the sleepyness from his eyes as a pig with wings flew past him.
Then it hit him.
It wasn't a dream.
Except, the part when Shion said she loved him.
It all came back to him, slowly. It happened yesterday when the Durandal picked them up at the beach for Jr.'s actual surprise party. Shion thought he was still a jerk after attempting to act macho and he hit the bottle. In other words, our little Allen got piss drunk; blacked out and some how ended up in his bed.
" Wow, I must've drank a lot to black out like that," said Allen, to himself, " Not to mention the killer hangover. I hope I didn't make too much of a fool of myself at the party…"
Little did our meek engineer know, he took exactly 2 sips of beer, got blasted and 'boogied'. He shook his butt, did hi-kicks, and generally made a total and complete fool of himself, especially when he put the lampshade on his head. Also, Jr. got it all on tape and it was currently circulating around the internet.
But Allen didn't know.
Yet.
Allen's eyes lingered on the calendar, memory still fuzzy.
" I was supposed to remember something…" he said out loud, " I can't remember…my head…"
Then he noticed the letter on the dresser. It said: Yo, Allen! We're calling an emergency meeting in my room about Shion's birthday. Hurry and get there! P.S Awesome Drunken Jig!-Jr.
Allen was puzzled over the 'drunken jig' comment, but the other fact sunk in.
" Shion's birthday…is TOMORROW!" screamed Allen, remembering, " PANIC!"
" That's my line," said Ziggy, entering Allen's room; carrying a stack of papers.
" Oh, hey Ziggy," said Allen, " I just remembered the Chief's birthday is tomorrow and I totally forgot! PANIC! PANICCC!"
" You still have a day," said Ziggy, " That should be ample time to buy Shion a gift."
" True…" said Allen.
Perhaps it all was a dream after all. Ziggy was certainly back to his old self, no more episodes with weird pigs with wings happening, so maybe…
" Here, Allen," said Ziggy, handing him a stack of flyers, " Give this to every living person you see."
" Uh…Okay.." replied Allen.
Ziggy nodded and exited.
Allen got a good look at the flyer. It said:
HELP! Pig with Wings lost!
Answers to the name Porky, last seen yesterday. If found, contact Ziggaurt 8 at 555-555-55.
BIG REWARD!
Allen blinked.
That was as much evidence as he needed to prove that those events yesterday did infact happen, as surreal as it seemed.
With a sigh, Allen walked out; and began his walk to Jr.'s room.
Meanwhile…
" SHION!" cried Miyuki.
" Oh, hi Miyuki," said Shion, in greeting.
" So who are you inviting to your b-day party?" asked Miyuki, innocently.
" I'm not having a party this year. I think I out grown kiddie-parties and playing pin-the-tail on the donkey."
" Oh…Well, let's say someone's throwing you a surprise party, who isn't me; and wants to know the guest list. Who would you invite?"
" I see…I would invite the whole gang! Even Canaan, on condition that he wears a different outfit."
" Even that crazy chaos guy?" asked Miyuki, in shock.
" Yeah, it's not like him to hold grudges and plot revenge. I bet he's forgotten all about it now…"
Meanwhile…
" Now its time we hold an eternal grudge and plot revenge on Shion and Co. for humiliating me!" cried Chaos, evilly.
Nephillim appeared again, chuckling.
" Nephillim! Have you come to hear my plot of sweet revenge on Shion and her gang?" asked Chaos, smiling.
" Yes and no," she replied.
" Huh? Which is it?"
" Maybe."
" That's not an answer! Dammnit, Shion was right! You are annoying and cryptic!"
" I'm sorry, Chaos," said Nephillim, " I just wanted to inform you of Allen's drunken jig. It was quite funny."
" Oh. I AM CHAOS! HEAR MY PLAN!" shouted Chaos.
" Okay."
" It involves a very special birthday cake. Did I mention, special?"
" They were right," she replied, " You ARE losing your touch."
" SHUTUP! My plan is perfect! MWAHAHA!"
Luna: Sorry if I confused anyone! But to make it clear, it wasn't a dream; Allen just thought it was cause of his hangover. Anyway I hoped you all liked it! Review! Next Chapter: Allen goes on a Shopping Spree! And the next chapter shall be longer!
