Chapter Two: The Izzy Showcase
I told the witch doctor I was in love in you
I told the witch doctor I was in love in you
And then the witch doctor, he told me what to do
He said that…
Izzy paused briefly in her song and took a deep breath from the balloon from her hand before continuing to sing, the helium making temporarily making her voice high pitched. Ezekiel sitting next to her in the empty restaurant laughed in amusement.
Courtney on the other hand was not amused by Izzy's antics. And her face scrunched up more and more in annoyance. Finally she had enough. "Would you two shut up!" The CIT growled out, opening her eyes and turning to glare at the hick and the crazy girl.
"Metsuki Shatto!" Yasu snapped before gently yet firmly moving Courtney's head back. Courtney sighed as she noticed the expression of displeasure on Yasu's face. "Fine. I get it. Don't turn your head."
"No that would be Butsu ta-n goshujin kashira." Ezekiel corrected causing the CIT to turn her head back to the young lady's annoyance. "Metsuki Shatto!" The homeschooler grinned. "And Metsuki Shatto means that Yasu wants you to close yoor eyes so she can work eh."
The overachiever sighed, but reluctantly complied and sat back in her chair. As the makeup brush touched her face, the CIT frowned and crossed her arms. "I still don't know why I have to be here. She already has her dolls.
"Yeah, but you volunteered to help remember?" Izzy commented happily in her chipmunk pitched voice. Taking another deep breath from the balloon in her hand, the red head continued to speak.
"Yasu has her duties at the hotel and three projects due tomorrow and she shouldn't be wasting her time waiting for my Zeke to eat and have the makeup put on and put off and put on and put off and put on…"
"I get it!" Courtney yelled out before taking a deep breath. "Fine, but tell her to make it quick. And that it's important that she signs this paper." Ezekiel stared at the CIT for a moment in surprise before he frowned."
"Why? Why does Yasu need to sign it?" Courtney smiled. "Not to worry Se-Ezekiel. It merely states that my participation in assisting Yasu in passing her special effects makeup class extends to one session only and that any pictures taken will be solely for the purpose of said class and her portfolio, but any malicious attempt to discredit my future campaign run of office will result in prompt and immediate legal action."
The Homeschooler stared at the smirking CIT in disbelief before he frowned and started to translate to Yasu. The teal haired lady's face widened into surprise and her eyes hardened. "Doushi shirei maikuroerekutoronikusu motte kyohaku?" *1*
"Hai." *2*
Yasu frowned. "Hon'in ijou. Hataraki oite akage mohaya. Warugaki tokutei." *3* Ezekiel winced, Izzy looked confused and Courtney waited impatiently. "Well what did she say? Will she agree to the set terms or not?"
"Hai." Yasu commented reaching for the paper while at the same time shooting Ezekiel a hidden look. The prairie boy nodded and walked over to translate. Several minutes later Courtney smiled accepting the signed legal contract.
"Very well. You can now continue with…whatever you're doing to me provided you stick with the terms of the letter." Ezekiel smiled. "Sure eh Coory." He cringed at the dark look on the tanned female's face.
"It's Courtney." Ezekiel quickly nodded. "Okay eh." A loud upset moan from Yasu drew everyone's attention and she held a few makeup tubes in her hand. "So? What's the problem now?"
"Yasu can noot do the horror makeup on you anymore until the order she ordered comes in boot she has goot a creative backup. It's goona take a while eh so she wants to work on Izzy right now since her makeup is a lot simpler eh."
Izzy cheered. "Yay! Izzy's turn! So since you can't make Izzy gorey can you make her super scary! Yeah! With big old fangs…like a giant mutant werewolf! Or a bat! Or maybe even the rare Batwolf! How's that sound?!"
Courtney frowned. "There is no such thing as a Batwolf." Izzy grinned back wickedly. "Oh that's what they want you to think. Oh course Izzy broke into the secret files of the RCMP secret secret division and she knows that to find a Batwolf you need to climb deep deep into the pits of the-"
"There is no Batwolf!" Courtney screeched before storming out of the room. Izzy blew a raspberry before turning to face the toque wearing brunet. "My Zeke believes in Batwolves right?"
Ezekiel gulped and he felt his face start to heat up. Nervously he played with his toque. "I...I…I…" Izzy leaned in closer. "So does My Zeke believe in Batwolves or not?" Ezekiel let out a nervous giggle before his eyes rolled back in his head and he slumped in his chair.
Izzy blinked before letting out a delighted cackle. "Already he's falling for Izzy! Excellent." The red head grinned wickedly rubbing her hands. She then turned to face Yasu who pulled out a small book from her makeup trunk and held it out.
Izzy grinned.
"You want me to do wot?" Ezekiel asked in confusion once he had recovered from his fainting spell. Izzy grinned back her normal wicked smile more menacing then normal thanks to the sharp fangs in her mouth.
"Just say Izzy's special word until she says stop." Izzy commented happily wiggling her newly pointed ears. Her vibrant green eyes were even more vivid against her dark blue skin and Yasu was hard at work applying the false fur to her body.
The homeschooler slowly nodded. "Okay boot I'm pretty sure that that's noot a word eh."
"SAY THE WORD ZEKE!"
Ezekiel jumped. "Okay!" The prairie boy cleared his throat and opened to his mouth only to cringe back into his seat when Beth wheeled Cody into the room followed by Tyler and the infamous twins.
Noticing the glares of displeasure coming from the female trio and the sheepish grins from the guys, Ezekiel quickly shut his mouth and turned his head to face the displeased Izzy. He gulped and quickly spoke the strange word.
"Mahna Mahna."
"DO DO DOO DOO DOO DOOO!"
Tyler let out a bark of laughter and the disgruntled girls were amused especially when they noticed the look of surprise and utter confusion on the homeschooler's face. With some prodding from Izzy, Ezekiel reluctantly complied.
"Mahna Mahna."
"DO DO DOO DOO DOO!"
"Mahna Mahna."
"DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DO DO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DO DO DO DOO DOOO!"
That did it and everyone not sitting down or currently in a wheelchair was now doubled over or barely standing from there hysterics. Izzy laughed in delight. "See isn't this fun My Zeke?" Ezekiel just stared back.
"Why are we dooing this a'gain eh?" The red head smiled at him coyly. "Because the name of the game is keep Izzy entertained so she sits still for Yasu. And since Izzy can't make out, play chicken with Gertie and Bertie or other fun stuff, she wants her Zeke to keep her busy."
"Wot's make oot mean eh?" Ezekiel questioned causing the rest of their audience to break back down into fits of laughter.
After several more renditions of Izzy approved songs which included singing about Gummy Bears, The Monkey Song and something called the Time Warp, Yasu, had finally deemed Izzy ready to be photographed.
Shortly after the Japanese woman dismissed her, Izzy had lunged at the Homeschooler and kissed the startled teen on the lips before vanishing into thin air. The group of watchers had taken pity on the prairie boy.
Beth and Katie and Sadie had unanimously agreed to give the brunet male another chance after witnessing the whole show. "And besidesth I think you've been through enough today." Beth giggled with the twins nodding agreement.
Tyler had dubbed himself Zeke's bodyguard and the jock helped the dazed teen get from the restaurant to the video room. He had then proceeded to explain about the strange songs, but he had a sneaking suspicion that the shorter male was only vaguely paying attention.
Ezekiel not cowering in fear with the appearance of Eva had confirmed it. The scowl on the strong woman's face faded and she raised her eyebrow. "Alright what's up with the sexist here?" She commented while Courtney nodded with a frown.
"Hot girl overload." Cody said nonchalantly earning several giggles in return. Courtney's frown deepened. "I pity the girl who's the object of HIS affections." Courtney sniffed.
The monster grinned happily as the vehicle below zoomed around in the mud. Her smile turned to annoyance when Heather revealed a knife in her hand and started to lean downwards to the rope trailing from the back of the ski doo.
"Dirty tricks…not fun." The creature frowned before grinning wickedly. "Batwolf should do something about that." Grabbing a nearby vine, the monster swung down heading directly for the raven haired girl.
Heather's knife had scarcely touched the rope when she heard a loud rip and felt her top fall away making the popular girl let out a horrified scream. Luckily or Unluckily for Heather her bare chest was barely shown for more then a second thanks to the monster.
The big, black and furry creature had tackled the queen bee sending her flying on top of Harold and causing the ski doo to crash. While Harold moaned about boobies and Heather complained about being covered in mud, the creature had disappeared.
Chris McClain raised an eyebrow. "Well…that was unexpected. Oh well. Since the Bass crashed and burned, it's now the Gopher's turn!" Duncan glared at Harold before taking his place on the ski doo and Lindsay readied herself.
Despite Lindsay's athleticism, the creature had appeared again and caused another crash. Duncan also landed in the mud and Lindsay landed in his arms. "Tyler?" Lindsay asked in confusion while Duncan scowled.
"What the heck was that thing?" The punk demanded as he dumped the shrieking blonde into the mud. Chris shrugged. "Beats the heck out of me! The host said cheerfully before frowning as well.
"But seeing that the Gopher's also floundered, the ski doo is trashed, the race flags have gone missing and the appearance of that unknown yet wickedly cool monster I'm going to do something that I hoped to never ever EVER do.
Ezekiel raised an eyebrow as he stared at the various flags that decorated the walls in Izzy's room. "Do I need to ask?" Izzy grinned as she yanked away his toque. "You could…but Izzy likes her surprises. You'll just have to wait for the show."
Placing the hat on her red haired locks, she smiled in amusement as the brunet male pouted. "My Zeke won't let his Izzy wear the toque?" Batting her eyes coyly, she smiled in triumph when the male's face burned red.
Izzy grinned. "Tis Izzy's toque now!" The prairie boy snapped out his daze and a wry smile came to his face. "Oh really eh?" The crazy girl nodded proudly and let out a startled shriek as the hat was quickly removed.
Izzy though refused to give up so easily causing a toque of war. The battle between the two continued for several minutes and both competitors refused to give up their prize.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!"
The sudden shriek behind Izzy caused the crazy girl to loosen her grip on the hat just as Ezekiel pulled back sending Izzy flying forward and her lips accidently met against his. Prairie boy and Crazy Girl instantly froze and stared at the other in shock.
In the doorway, Katie and Sadie waited eagerly for the outcome. "Don't recoil Don't recoil…" Katie murmured with Sadie nodding as well, hands clenched tightly. Finally after what seemed like forever both pairs of eyes closed.
The BFFFL's gasped in delight and quickly placed their hands over their mouths as they quickly rushed back to the T.V. room. Noah looked back at them in disinterest. "So did you tell them about the new TDI episode?"
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!"
