This is Madz again. Some of you may be wondering how I get Dawn's documents for her chapters. Here's how I do it (I had to do trial and error):
1. Make a connection with Dawn on the DocX feature
2. She sends a document
3. I copy the document by viewing it, highlighting all of the document, right clicking, and selecting "Copy"
4. Here's the trial and error part. I do not select "Copy and Paste" on Doc Manager. Instead, I paste it onto a new document in Microsoft Word and then upload the file. Otherwise, it has tons of code on it.
5. I look at the document and edit stuff that I need to edit (like making author's notes bold)
6. I do what I would normally do: add it as a new chapter.
That's it. That's all I need to do. Now, I shall explain the new theme: water. Water is a resource that most living things need. A planet with water means that the planet may have life. Nobody knows for sure, but the viruses might be aliens. This theme stars the viruses from Dr. Mario. I hope you enjoy, and if you're thinking about doing a fanfiction with someone, take my advice.
Plack Beach was a beach that had teeth on it. Sometimes dubbed, "A dentist's nightmare", it had tons of two things: teeth and viruses.
The viruses would go look for people on the beach to make sick. To give the visitors an illness, all they need to do is bite them. No matter how many Toads warn the visitors about the viruses, there are still people that go there.
One day, three viruses were looking for their next victim. The viruses' names were Chill, the Blue virus, Fever, the Red virus, and Weird, the Yellow virus. Chill was the leader, Fever was the brains, and Weird was the one who caused trouble in the group.
While they were looking for their victim, Fever spoke up. "Chill, the location of the visitor is unknown. Your description on our victim is vague, and…"
"I just said make anyone but viruses sick!" yelled Chill, "Do I need to be more specific?"
They both looked at Weird biting the sand. Weird looked at them with a sad expression.
"The sand isn't getting sick, Chill!" said Weird, who sounded upset.
"Make something alive sick!" shouted Chill. The moment after he shouted, a voice was heard. It sounded like the voice belonged to someone who knew French, because the accent was a French accent.
"Oui! Zis block! Non, zis rare block! Oui, I found it!"
All three viruses turned their heads to an island that was most likely a few meters away. There was a guy made of blocks on the island, along with several other regular yellow blocks surrounding him. However, the block the guy was holding was green with a sideways tornado on it.
"Perfect! We found an organism that we can give a malady to! Influenza might be the valid illness to give him," said Fever with glee.
Confused by the words Fever chose, Chill yelled, "Start speaking my language, not your smart language for college students!"
"Look, blue stuff!" exclaimed Weird.
They looked at what Weird was pointing to. He wasn't biting the sand anymore, but his eyes were staring at the ocean. Despite it having calm waves today, the ocean was always intimidating to the viruses. This was because they didn't know how to swim, and the ocean had many dangers that no virus wants to see.
The viruses soon realized that the island was a few meters away from the shore, with the ocean surrounding it.
"That blue stuff is the ocean, Weird!" shouted Chill, who was starting to get annoyed.
"Ocean?!" exclaimed Weird, "It's not pretty anymore!"
"Don't fret, Weird!" reassured Fever, "We'll examine the beach so we can get to the medium-sized island!"
"Hey, I do the commanding here, not you!" Chill yelled, "Come on, let's find a bridge or a boat or something"
All the viruses started looking for something that could get them to the island. Chill tried to find a bridge, Fever tried to find supplies to make a boat, and Weird tried to find a portal that could get them to the island (Weird reads a lot of comic books). Soon, Chill found something that could help them get to the block guy.
"Come over here!"
Fever and Weird walked over to Chill and saw a rope that connected the two islands. The rope wasn't tied to anything on the shore, but it was tied to a tooth on the island.
"If we have good balance, we can finally bite him!"
Fever shook his head (or body) and said, "My calculations say one has to pull the rope so we can hopefully get across,"
"So only two can go?"
Fever nodded. Chill looked at Weird and commanded, "Weird, you pull the rope! The rest will walk to the island"
"I feel important, Chill!" exclaimed Weird before he pulled the rope. The rope was now sturdy enough to walk on. Chill hopped on the rope and signaled Fever to do the same. Once both were on the rope, they started walking.
When they were halfway through the water, Weird wanted to go to the island, too. Ignoring how important pulling the rope was, he let go of it and ran onto the rope. He kept on running, not falling off due to how fast he was.
When the two viruses noticed that the rope was sinking, they looked at the shore. Weird wasn't pulling it anymore; he was running on it. When he ran into them, the two viruses fell into the ocean.
As the two viruses were struggling to keep afloat, Weird stopped and stared at Chill and Fever.
"I wanna join to!" Weird shouted before he jumped in with them. Now Weird tried to keep afloat by struggling with them. They all thought they would drown, until a Cheep Cheep rose from underwater in front of them.
"Umm, excuse me, will you kindly not devour us and help us get to the island?" asked Fever politely.
The Cheep Cheep didn't listen, and he opened his mouth to swallow them whole. The viruses tried to get away, but the Cheep Cheep managed to get them all in his mouth. Hearing the cries for help in his mouth, he swallowed them so that he wouldn't have to hear the noise.
The block man noticed the Cheep Cheep and shouted, "I'm stuck on zee island! Help!"
The fish would help him, but he suddenly got a terrible stomachache. He descended back underwater, hoping that the water would do something to heal his stomach pains.
After you read that, did you notice something familiar about the virus trio? I based their personalities after the Eds from Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy. One's the leader, one's the brains, and the other's the dumb one. I used to love that show when I was little (I loved it until the show ended and BIS came out. Then I got into Mario), so why not make the viruses like the Eds? Come on, it's for my childhood!
The next theme is Sick, and Dawn's doing that one. Knowing Dawn, she'll make a good story with that theme. Read her other fanfictions and you'll see what I mean (Most are Mario, but some, like Things That Shouldn't be Hidden, aren't Mario fanfictions, but I still like them).
We already finished Theme 6! Also, this fanfiction has over 200 views! This fanfiction gets views really quickly, much quicker than the Madz and Starlow series. (3 and 9 have over 1,000 views, so I guess people love Dreamstar) I hope you guys like the fanfiction! My favorite theme is Flowers, by the way.
