Okay, I'll begin with my summary of the previous chapter. Basically, Judecca got confused, Heero and Duo saved the school from a bomb/flying minotaur, Trowa hit Heero and Duo over the head with a board twice and Judecca once. Quatre summoned dust bunnies to attack Judecca, fell asleep, and then Savings Bond asked Duo and Heero to help him kill Judecca. Ummmm.... Before I begin the fourth chapter, I'd like to ask you something... Who exactly is 'Father Maxwell?' Was it some episode of Gundam Wing I missed, from a completely different Gundam series that I've never even heard of, or just one of those things everyone but me knows, or what? I suppose it is also possible that he's a character someone invented for there particular fanfic as well, but I must be too dumb to know that if that is the case. When you review this chapter, be sure to clue me in on that if you happen to know. If you don't review, of course.... I'll have Duo lose your homework for a whole year so you get major detention! And I'll have Heero foil your evil plans and shoot you! And then I'll have Trowa hit you on the head with a 2x4! And then I'll make Quatre get the dust bunnies to attack you! And then Wufei shall... Somehow manage to stay out of all of your fanfics! And then I'll wait, say, 8 years, invite Duo over to my house, put on some nice romantic music, and... Uh, here's the next chapter in my great new series.....
Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Heero getting undressed to take a shower. Savings stared at Duo. Duo pulled out a camera and took a picture of Heero undressing to take a shower. Savings stared at Duo. Duo turned and hit Savings over the head with a 2x4. Savings stared at the floor before falling unconcious. "Jeez, that guy and his staring contests were really starting to bug me." Duo muttered under his breath. Hmmmm... How do YOU eat a reeses... Where's the cream filling? How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? How much chuck could a chuckwood wood if a chuckwood could wood chuck? Hey... who's that? Duo snuck up behind the boy staring at Heero. "Hey, who the hell are you?" The boy turned. "Uh... I'm the author." Duo stared at the boy. "What do you mean?" The boy ran in circles around Duo. "I mean I am the one, the only, theguywhohasaname... I am the author. Everything that is happening right now is happening because I am writing about it happening."
Duo looked confused. "Never mind that. If you hadn't seen me, I would have gotten away without havinbg to do this again. Why does this always happen to me?!? I'm seriously considering not writing anymore. I always end up in my own story, and then I can't seem to get out. Speaking of which, I believe my little gateway from this world to my world has closed... All thanks to you!" Duo looked at the boy angrily. "Hey, I don't have to take this from you. I can beat the crap out of you easily!" The boy laughed. "No you can't. For several reasons. One, I'm three years older than you, which isn't that much of a difference, but it means that I'm three years older and wiser than you. And two, you know that guy Judecca that's trying to kill you? His body is from that video game you played in the... Second chapter, I think it was. But there's something unique about his brain. He has only one brain, but within it he has two minds."
Duo stared at the boy who claimed to be 'the author' in disbelief. "You expect me to believe that? The human brain can't support two minds." The boy in front of him laughed. "I forget the percentage, but humans only use a certain percentage of their minds. I think it's less than 10, am absolutely sure it's below 20, and know FOR SURE that it's below 50, and therefore it's possible for any human to have two minds. Quite possibly more. His brain contains his own mind, and my mind. Up until this chapter I've been letting his mind handle his little battles with you. My mind is far greater than his, which means that those close calls you have both had with him would be nothing if I fought you. You'd be dead in seconds. I wouldn't even have to use a gun." Duo looked at the boy and was silent, maintaining eye contact for a few moments. "Weird... It's like I can see straight through your eyes, into your mind. I can tell somehow that you aren't lying."
The author shook Duos hand and said "Yup. Nice to meet you, my name is... Well, I don't usually tell people my real name... I usually just tell everyone I'm Judecca A. Gunner. By the way, I came up with the A. Gunner part. Not very original or creative or anything, but I think it's rather fitting. It'd be way too confusing having two Judeccas around. So just call me by another name I'm fairly fond of. Call me Vinsfeld Rhadamanthus. Well, Vinsfeld, anyways. You don't have to say my last name as well when talking to me. That name's from that video game too. It's my favorite game ever! PLAYSTATION RULES!!! And so does Wild Arms 2." Vinsfeld looked at the clock hanging above the door to the room they were in. "Uh-oh. 7 minutes to midnight. So that means... Two minutes and then... And then four minutes... And one minute later, kaboom."
There was a knock on the door. Duo walked over to the door and swung it wide open, ready to attack if it was Judecca. "Oh, hi, Trowa!" Duo cheerfully greeted the boy. "Hi Duo. I'll be right back." Trowa ran into the room carrying his 2x4 and started chasing the author (AKA Vinsfeld). He chased Vinsfeld out into the hall, down the stairs, through another hall, up a staircase, and back into the room before he finally caught up and knocked him out cold with the 2x4. "He was getting too close to telling what happens next... I had to shut him up." Trowa said by way of an apology to Duo. "Uh... Well, that's okay. He was starting to annoy me anyways." Savings Bond jumped up into tha air. "Huh? Duo, why did you do that?" Trowa ran over to the secret agent and tried to hit him on the head to knock him out, but couldn't reach high enough. "Argh..." Trowa said, discouraged, and then hit Bond between the legs with the 2x4. Savings whimpered slightly and fell to the ground, unconcious from the pain.
Four minutes later, Heero got out of the shower and saw Trowa talking to Duo. He put his clothes and a helmet on and walked calmly into the room. "Well, I guess Judecca hasn't been here yet. Hey, who's that? Damn, he's cute." Oh crap! I slipped! Now Duo's going to know I'm gay, and then he's probably going to figure out that I have feelings for him, and then.... Duo looked at Heero in surprise. "Whatdja say, Heero?" Heero thought quickly and said "I said he's rude. The way he's lying there on the floor indicates that he was peeking into the bathroom while I was in there before he got knocked out by Trowa. At least I'm assuming it was Trowa." Phew, close call, Heero. Don't slip like that again! Heero thought, feeling relieved. Damn... I must REALLY like him if I want him to like me that way badly enough I'm imagining him say things like that... Duo thought to himself, feeling slightly depressed. Then the second, minute and hour hands all were on 12 on the clock, and the window shattered.
"What was that?!?!" Heero yelled. A brick lay on the ground amidst a pile of shattered, broken glass. "Hey, Heero, look! A note!" Trowa said, pointing at the piece of paper attached to the brick. Heero unfolded the letter and read what it said.
"Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton,
Quatre Winner, Wufei Chang, and
Savings Bond:
I hereby address my challenge to the six
of you. My challenge is this: Come to
the island located at the below
latitude and longitude and try your best
to find and kill me before I do so to you.
If you do not accept my challenge, I will
be forced to kill the other children from
the school that were not as fortunate as
you and were captured by my creatures.
Judecca A. Gunner
"Wow... This guy has his own island?" Duo questioned. Heero read the coordinates and fed them into his laptop. "Yes, and it's fairly close by." Heero replied. Duo went and woke up Vinsfeld and Savings. Wow. What I imagined Heero said is true. He is kinda good looking... "DAMN IT! You made me miss the letter! Bad Trowa! BAD!" Vinsfeld yelled at Trowa, who cowered and hid under the bed. "Er... Sorry. I lost my temper. I wanted to see that scene. I don't really know why, but I really wanted to se that part." Vinsfeld mumbled apologetically and frowned. "Well, I guess this would be the part where Savings offers to let you use his private jet..." Duo finished explaining what had happened while Savings was unconcious and Savings volunteered to let them use his private jet to get to the island. "Uh... Oops. Let me enter in the coordinates again..." Heero said, typing on the keyboard. "I misread the coordinates. Apparently this guys island is... ??? Right over top of a desert?!? His island is in a desert in Egypt. And... Yeah, I was right. Very odd..."
Duo asked Heero what could possibly be more odd than an island in a desert. "Well, that's just it. It isn't in the desert. The great pyramids and the sphinx are right where these coordinates are. And, interestingly enough, I am, right at this very moment, hacking into a computer built into the sphinx." Duo looked extremely confused. "But how's that possible?" Heero typed away on his keyboard for several minutes before answering. "The great pyramids have power cores inside them. The core is disguised as a rock. To turn the power core on, you just have to touch the rock. To open up a door to the sphinx, all three cores have to be turned on. Once they're all on, the sphinx opens up and turns on. Then the sphinx transports whoever walks inside to and island hidden underwater in the bermuda triangle. And guess what? The island is named Atlantis."
On Board The Jet...
"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Duo yelled as he turned the jet to the left. "WEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" He turned it to the right. "Ugh, why the hell did you let Duo fly the jet, Savings?" Heero asked, trying not to puke. "Well, I had no choice... He said I had to let him fly it or he wouldn't help me kill Judecca. And I don't think we can kill Judecca unless we all work together." Savings said. "Oh, no! I just lost my lunch!" Heero screamed. He reached under the seat and pulled out a brown paper bag. "Oh, okay, I found it. But now I think I'm gonna barf!" Trowa was sitting in a seat next to Quatre, and Quatre was trying to get Trowa to play the license plate game. "Quatre, we can't! There are no license plates up here in the air!" Quatre looked out the window he was sitting next to and pointed at a passing plane. "See that plane that just passed us? It had a license plate." Trowa looked at the plane that was steadily getting farther and farther ahead of them. "Huh?!? That plane has a license plate! And on the license plate it says Judecca. And look, instead of a state it says hell! And that plane has some kind of weird rockets attached to it! And I have to peeeeeeeeeeeee!" Trowa got up and ran back towards the bathroom, but just as he got to the door, the jet went into a steep dive and he slid down into the cockpit.
"STOP IT, DUO! I HAVE TO PEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Trowa yelled at Duo, and Duo laughed and said. "Well, I should probably help you get back there if you have to go so bad." The jet then shot straight up, and Trowa slid to the ver back of the jet into the bathroom. The jet levelled out, and Trowa relieved himself. "What the hell is wrong with you?!?" Heero screamed, strangling Savings. "Why did you let Duo fly the damn jet?!!" Duo ran out into the aisle and pried Heeros hands off of Savings' throat. "Heero, you shouldn't strangle Mr. Bond." Heero glared at Duo, and then asked "Duo? Who's flying the plane?" Duo glanced back at the cockpit. "I put it on autopilot." Heero let out a sigh of relief. Trowa began moaning from inside the bathroom. Heero looked back at the bathroom and noticed that Quatre wasn't in his seat anymore. "Uh... Anybody else think this is a bit odd? Trowa's in the bathroom and Quatre is nowhere in sight, and Trowa has just started moaning... You go see what's going on back there, Duo." Heero said, pushing Duo back towards the origin of the moaning.
Duo leered at Heero as he made his way to the source of the moaning. He opened the door to the bathroom to find Trowa bandaging a cut on his hand. "Owwwww.... That huuuuurt." Duo laughed. Trowa whirled around. "What's so funny?" He asked. "Heero thought you were moaning 'cause... Hmmm... If he isn't here, where is Quatre?" Trowa shrugged his shoulders and went back to tending his wound. Duo ran back to Heero and said "Quatre isn't in there. Trowa got cut and that's why he was moaning." Heero was puzzle. "Where's Quatre, then?" "I don't know." And then, for the first time since they had gotten on the jet, Wufei spoke. "He kept asking me to play some license plate game and so I threw him out the door." Heero, Duo, Savings, and Quatre gasped in horror. "Wufei! I can't believe you'd do such a thing! Why did you throw me out the door?" Quatre asked Wufei. Heero, Duo and Savings turned and looked at Quatre. "Uh... Quatre? Has it occured to you yet that you're right here and not dropping to your death?" Duo asked. "Um.... Oh yeah... Sorry, I guess I'm still a bit tired." He replied and went back to his seat. Moments later Trowa came out and sat next to Quatre.
"So, are we almost there yet, Duo?" Heero asked. "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" Trowa repeatedly asked Duo. "No. If we survive the flight there, we should land sometimes or another." "But when?" Savings asked. "In about 3 seconds." The jet hit the ground and its passenger all tumbled into the cockpit. "Duo, did you know that the pilot is supposed to land the plane?" Duo blushed. "Well, how was I supposed to know? I just put it on autopilot and thought it would take care of the rest, Heero." The five boys and the secret agent climbed out through the emergency hatch, since for some reason the door wouldn't open. "Well, that would explain why we couldn't open the door. It's buried under the sand." Wufei remarked, and then they all jumped down to the ground. "Well, the pyramids are over there. So let's go activate the power cores." Duo pointed out. The small group headed towards the first pyramid and saw that a rock somewhere inside it was glowing. "Looks like that one has been turned on already." Quatre sleepily stated in between yawns. "Oh great, sleeping beauty's gonna fall asleep again." Duo said sarcastically as they went to the next pyramid.
"Hey, that one's on already too. I guess Judecca put them close to the entrances so they'd be easy to access." Heero mumbled to himself, and then the group wandered towards the final pyramid. "Weird... This one's on too." Trowa said as he poked Heero repeatedly with a stick he had pulled out of his pocket. Heero produced a gun from out of nowhere and aimed it right at Trowas head. "Stop. Poking. Me." Trowa waited until they had almost reached the sphinx and then poked Heero again. "Poke a man!" He said, and began saying it over and over again as he poked Heero. Heero reached out and snapped the stick in two. "Now leave me alone!" They approached the sphinx and saw that the nose had disappeared, revealing a door, and a staircase led up to it. Heero led the way to the top of the stairs and stepped inside the door. Once they were all inside, there was a blinding flash of light, and they suddenly found themselves under a glass dome surrounding a city on an island at the bottom of the ocean. "Wow... This place looks even cooler than I had imagined it." Vinsfeld said.
Well, this has proved to be my shortest chapter yet, but I think I'm gonna make the next one as long as one of my When Cartoons Collide chapters. By the way, if you're reading this and have also read When Cartoons Collide and happen to be wondering why I haven't added a new chapter to it yet, here's the answer. I am going to keep writing chapters for this fanfic until I have six, the exact number I have in When Cartoons Collide. Then, once I have six chapters in this one, I will write a chapter for WCC. Then I'll write a chapter for this one, and so on and so forth. Please read and review every chapter of both of them! And I hope to be starting another fanfic pretty soon, so be sure to look for it. I'm thinking of making it based on the characters of digimon. But, of course, it'll be much odder than anyone could possibly imagine. Oh, yeah, about my little ending note in the previous chapter, that's been delayed until the next chapter. You know, the part about it not being the happiest chapter I've ever written. I guess that's it. So, toodles!
Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Savings. Savings stared at Duo. Duo stared at Heero getting undressed to take a shower.

By the way, if you're reading this and have also read When Cartoons Collide and happen to be wondering why I haven't added a new chapter to it yet, here's the answer. I am going to keep writing chapters for this fanfic until I have six, the exact number I have in When Cartoons Collide. Then, once I have six chapters in this one, I will write a chapter for WCC. Then I'll write a chapter for this one, and so on and so forth. Please read and review every chapter of both of them! And I hope to be starting another fanfic pretty soon, so be sure to look for it. I'm thinking of making it based on the characters of digimon. But, of course, it'll be much odder than anyone could possibly imagine. Oh, yeah, about my little ending note in the previous chapter, that's been delayed until the next chapter. You know, the part about it not being the happiest chapter I've ever written. I guess that's it. So, toodles!
