Recap:
"Then let's hurry back. I think we were out for a while and it looks like it's going to be dark soon." Stork said as he grabbed the other end of the crystal.
The two then practically ran back to the Condor.
----------------------------------------
Piper sighed and muttered to herself as she rifled through pages and pages of maps and coordinates.
Really, Stork should keep all this more organized.
The twitch in her eyebrow grew more and more frequent the farther she got through the papers.
Map, Map, Map, Coordinates, Invention Notes, Map, Phone Number for the Disease Center, Map, Antique Catalog, Map...Wait? Antique Catalog? What?
Piper paused and stared at the papers.
Stork likes antiques? Who'd have figured...
She sighed again and glanced up at the clock that hung above the door.
"Where are they? I'm starting to get worried..." She bit her lip and glanced at Aerrow and Junko.
"Dunno. I'm sure they'll be back soon." Aerrow said confidently, even though he himself was starting to get nervous. Finn and Stork had been gone nearly eight hours now and it was going to be dark soon.
And once it got dark...who knew what kind of creatures were running around in this area?
Aerrow shuddered and turned to Junko.
"Will you start dinner? It looks like we might just stay here for the night." He said as he glanced at the clock.
"Sure thing!" Junko chirped as he saluted Aerrow and marched off to the kitchen.
Piper smiled slightly and went back to going through the piles of papers that Stork had left.
Aerrow shook his head and turned to Piper, about to speak before he was interrupted by the door slamming open, causing the whole ship to shake.
"FINALLY!"
Aerrow sent a relieved smile to the two people who had just come running through the door.
"Glad to see you two made it back in one piece. And I see that you found the crystal." Piper said as she gave a nod towards the now dirty orange crystal that the two males were carrying.
"Piper! Thank the Gods you're here! We need your help!"
Piper stared at the Merb, surprise written all over her face.
"Are you feeling alright? You never ask me for help." She said, an eyebrow raised.
"Of course I'm alri-I mean no! I'm not alright! Nothing is right!" 'Stork' continued to screech, his eyes getting wider and wider with every word as he started to screech.
"Um...Stork?" Aerrow said cautiously.
"WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO!? HOW CAN WE GO ON LIVING!?" 'Stork' wailed.
SLAP!
"GET YOURSELF TOGETHER, MAN!" The blonde boy shouted as he gripped the front of 'Stork's' shirt, his hand still raised in the air.
"Uh, guys?" Aerrow tried to get their attention again.
No one noticed Piper crunching the thick piles of papers in her fist, her eyebrow twitching madly.
"HOW CAN I BE CALM AT A MOMENT LIKE THIS!?" The 'Merb' yelled right back, a hand nursing the large red mark on the side of his face.
"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!" Piper screamed as she threw the papers up into the air.
Stork and Finn froze and stared wide-eyed at the seething female. Even Aerrow looked nervous.
Piper blushed and coughed once she realized that every eye was on her.
"R-right. Now will you please tell us what is going on?" She asked as she bent down to pick up the papers she had thrown in her fit.
"It all started with that stupid crystal-"
"We both touched the crystal-"
"-and then there was this bright light-"
"-and we blacked out-"
"-and awoke hours later-"
"-to find out that-"
"-we had switched bodies!"
"It was Stork's fault, I swear!"
"Shut up Finn!"
Stork glared at Finn, his lips curled up in a snarl. Finn glared right back, a dark sneer on his now inhuman face.
"Wait, what?" Aerrow said, his eyes narrowed in confusion and concentration.
Stork sighed and turned away from Finn.
"We switched bodies. I'm Stork and he's Finn. In my body, and I'd like him out." He said, annoyance tinting his voice.
"WHAT!?" Aerrow and Piper exclaimed as they stared wide-eyed at the two sulking males.
"Hey guys! Dinner's ready!" Junko said happily as he came out of the kitchen, a large bowl in his hands.
He slowed his steps as he approached the tense group.
"Uh...did I miss anything?"
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
L.uca - Yes, I made Junko the cook. And I apologize if this chapter confuses you. It was the best way I could write it without adding nonsense in there. I tried to make it as easy as possible for people to understand who was who. Once the rest of the group knows about Stork and Finn's predicament it will be a lot easier understanding who is who.
Thank you everyone for reviewing and I hope you enjoyed the chapter:)
