Period


Grid ambushed Scar in his apartment and tackled him to the floor. (Grid's DVDs had been messed up and mismatched and a few were still missing. Since he had done something similar to Scar, he assumed it had been the yautja getting revenge.) Scar, who had just taken off his face mask to relax and play some games, was caught completely unaware by the alien. They rolled on the floor and crashed into the wall.

"Hey! What'd I do?" Scar yelled at Grid once he recognized him.

"This is revenge for messing up my DVDs! I haven't even found them all yet! Where'd you hide them?" Grid roared.

"DVDs? What are you talking about?" Scar threw Grid off him and into a wall. "I haven't done anything to your DVDs!"

"Yes you did!" Grid lunged at Scar again but missed. "And you put those obnoxious noise bags under my couch cushions! I ruined one of them because of you!"

"Noise bags?" Scar avoided Grid as he lunged again. "That was Lex. She booby trapped your apartment."

"Lex?" Grid suddenly stopped his attack. "She must have messed up my DVDs, too!" Grid moved to leave the apartment.

"Hey, wait." Scar grabbed the alien's arm, who promptly spun around and growled. "Let me help. She's been extra bitchy lately and hasn't given my cloaking device back yet."

The two male members of differing species grinned at each other.

Meanwhile, Lex was doubled up and growling at her abdomen. "God (insert assorted swear words of your choice here) why!?" She hissed. "I'd rather take the (beep) face huggers than these (beep) cramps!" (Add in a few more beeps just because.)Outside Lex's door, the alien and yautja were talking.

Grid: "Understand?"

Scar: "Yes, yes, I understand. You've gone over this plan five times already! You don't need to do so again!"

Grid: "Good. Let's go then."

The two move towards the door and Grid reaches to open it.

Inside, Lex relaxed. The cramp was finally over, leaving a much more pleasant throbbing of pain behind. Those pills were finally working. She had been tempted to drink something alcoholic, but resisted because all the doctors said it was an exceedingly bad idea. Besides, if she killed herself she wouldn't get to see the collateral damage that had resulted from her prank on Grid earlier.

Grid pushed open the door.

Lex saw the familiar alien head come through her doorway. She was still in an excessively bad mood today (partially because of the medication she had taken) and decided to vent her fury on Grid.


Poor Grid and Scar. I could sensor the following violence and spare them some dignity... Should I?

Nah! Bring on the violence! Bring on the loss of dignity!


The ooman lunged at Grid's head and started attacking him. Scar had been right, but he had no idea just how right. The alien fell into Lex's apartment and tried to escape. For a moment, he did. But that was only because a new victim had entered to room.

The instant Scar set foot in Lex's apartment, he was tackled to the ground. Almost immediately after that he was kicked in his manliness and thrown right back out where he crumpled at the base of the wall in the fetal position with his hands over his wounded manliness.

Grid winced when he saw what Lex did to Scar and then tried to scramble away when she turned back to him.

No such luck. Lex grabbed him by the tail and dragged him a short distance, then threw him out and slammed the door after him.

Grid hit the wall and landed on the curled up Scar. Scar limped back to Grid's apartment—with Grid's help of course—and the two nursed their wounds, both physical and ego-related.

"Man, who knew. That ooman is worse than a queen out for revenge."

"More like a yautja female with the strength and experience of an elder. Holy (beep)! I'll never bother her again."

"What's wrong with her?"

"No idea."

Meanwhile, Lex was curled up again as a vicious cramp was triggered by her exertions. (Insert more colorful swearing of your choice.)
