Flushed Away II: Down the Drain

by Psi Kat

Hello again! How was your Black Turkey? (Thanksgiving/Black Friday) Mine was pretty boring, but the turkey was fine. Also, I never realized how tasty rice flavored with saffron and jasmine was! Yummy.

Of course, that's probably the source of my bizarre musical theater/Flushed Away dream. No, the Flushed Away characters didn't randomly start singing and dancing. (Although, that would make a good fic.)

As for why this took longer than expected...the site was having some problems accepting this chapter. So RAWR! It's finally up! TAKE THAT!

Yeah, yeah...I know it's short. I'm bad at writing long chapters. But I'll get better!

Anyway, disclaimer and such are in the first chapter.

Thanks, reviewers! I love you all!

P.S. Happy Feet was ok, but Flushed Away was so much better.


Rita forced herself to get up the next morning. At first, she couldn't figure out why she was so grumpy. Then she remembered. 'Roddy...Well, I'll give him a piece of my mind,' she thought irritably. She then climbed onto the upper deck of the boat.

Roddy wasn't there.

Surprised, Rita rubbed her eyes to make sure she was seeing right. She was. "Roddy?" she called out. No response. Concerned, Rota explored the entire boat and the waters surrounding it. No Roddy anywhere. Her heart plummeted. "I can't have made him that angry," she said to herself. "Well, well, look at what the alley cat dragged in," came a tart remark from behind her. Rita whirled around to see Roddy sneering at her. Her worry instantly turned into fury. "Where have you been?" she growled, glaring at him. Roddy continued sneering. "I was out. What were YOU doing?" he retorted. Rita got right in his face. "I was looking for you! I was worried! Why did you leave? And why did you come back?" Roddy's sneer faded a little. "I was getting some alone time in. I certainly needed after that time with you!"

This stung Rita very hard. But she didn't show it. She just went to the controls and steered the boat to the shore. Without looking back at him, she said, "Get off my boat." Roddy did so, then he headed off, laughing. Rita watched him go in silence. Then she slid down so no one could see her. A few tears formed in her eyes, and she angrily wiped them away.

Meanwhile, as soon as Roddy was out of the boat's sight, he pulled out a miniature talkie-walkie. He carefully pressed a few buttons, then carefully whispered, "It's done," into it. There was a moment's pause. Then, "Good job. Return to base." Both Roddy and the voice on the talkie-walkie began laughing evilly.


Oh my god...I can't believe I wrote that chapter! (cries) That was beyond hard for me to write...I need sugar!!!!!

Thanks again for reading. Please review - and fix me some jasmine and saffron rice!
