How long has it been since I updated? So long I can't remember lol. Sorry I've taken so long to update this, a mixture of homework, terminal lazyness, manga, anime and having to re-write this chapter (with writers block and lack of inspiration) have prevented me from posting this. (Sigh) Now onto answering reviews...
handl4eva: Thank you for reviewing! I'm glad you like the way I think the book should have gone.
Agent Malkere: Yay! I love Midsummer Murders too, although I can't see why anyone would want to live there anymore lol, my family always bets on how many people will die in each episode.
Cibbler: Thank you! Yay someone else who likes my story!!!!!
Lelila Solo: Thank you for the review!!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything
Now onto the story...
Chapter 9
Holly was exhausted, but she had to find something out. It had just been on the news that some guy called 'Prince Isolder' had proposed to Solo's girlfriend. Luckily she had managed to download a program that enabled you to communicate across the holonet, it was also fortunate that Wedge, Wes and Hobbie also had the program. Once the computer had finally logged on she signed into the instant messenger.
Holly says: Hello everyone!
Wedge says: Hi
(Holly has changed her name to 'Dragon keeper')
Wes says: how do you change your name?
Dragon keeper says: On the main menu click on change name
Wes says: Got cha.
(Wes has changed his name to 'match-maker')
Wedge says: great name, so untruthful
match-maker says: I got the love birds together
Wedge says: no you didn't
match-maker says: did
Wedge says: didn't
match-maker says: did
Holly rolled her eyes as the argument continued down the screen, she'd better intervene or it could last for hours. Tiberion jumped up on her lap and curled in a ball.
Dragon keeper says: SHUT UP NOW!!!!!!!!! (angry face) I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENED 5 YEARS AGO!
match-maker says: keep your hair on
Dragon keeper says: grrrrrrrrr!
A sign popped up at the bottom of the computer screen saying 'Hobbie has signed on'.
"Holly," Indigo said, wandering into the room, "what cha doin?" She asked seeing the computer screen.
"Instant messaging," Holly replied.
"Cool."
(Hobbie has just joined the conversation)
Wedge says: heya
Dragon keeper says: please kill yourself Wes.
Indigo laughed as she saw the message Holly had typed in, "can I join in?" She asked.
"Sure," Holly dragged out a small laptop from under the computer, "This has the software loaded on, all you need to do is create an account."
Once Holly had explained how to create the account, Indigo walked off to her room to set up the laptop.
(Wedge has changed his name to 'Rogue one')
Hobbie says: original name
Rogue one says: have you seen Wes' name?
Hobbie says: no
match-maker says: what's wrong with it?
Hobbie says: haha
Dragon keeper says: shall we give this group a name?
match-maker says: wot group?
Dragon keeper says: (face rolling eyes) have you seen the latest news?
match-maker says: no
Dragon keeper says: Some prat named Prince Isolder has proposed to Solo's girlfriend.
match-maker says: oh yeah
Rogue one says: how bout 'the group stopping Wes messing with other people's love lives'?
match-maker says: some people just don't understand my talents
Rogue one says: what talents?
(Jedi master has joined the conversation)
"Huh?" Holly muttered, confused, "who's that?"
"Yeah, ask me, like I'm gonna know," Tiberion muttered sarcastically.
match-maker says: LUKIE!!!!
Jedi master says: It's Luke
Rogue one says: how did you get the software?
Jedi master says: Holonet
Dragon keeper says: Who are you?
match-maker says: Yeah, who are you again?
Jedi master says: sigh
Rogue one says: Wes, Holly stop being stupid.
Dragon keeper says: I'm not being stupid; I don't know who this guy is.
Jedi master says: I'm Luke Skywalker.
Dragon keeper says: cool, now back to the pressing issue.
There was a shout of joy from the spare room and a massage appeared at the bottom of the screen saying 'Indigo has signed in'.
(Indigo has joined the conversation)
match-maker says: INDY!!!!!
Indigo says: DON'T CALL ME THAT!!!!!!!
Dragon keeper says: THIS IS A SERIOUS CONVERSATION!!!!!!
match-maker says: HOLLY!!!!!!!!
Rogue one says: shut up Wes!!
match-maker says: WEDGE!!!!!!!!!
Jedi master says: what serious issue?
Rogue one says: Indigo how come you're on here?
Indigo says:Cause Holly gave me a laptop and I'm in my room at the moment
Rogue one says: kk
match-maker says: LUKIE!!!!!!!
Jedi master says: SHUT UP!!!!
match-maker says: aren't Jedi not supposed to loose their temper.
(Dragon keeper has changed her name to 'prince' Isolder is a poser')
match-maker says: cool name
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: thanks
Jedi master says: WHAT ISSUE!!!!!
match-maker says: Leia's alarming proposal of marriage from poser boy, when she should of course be married to Han.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: so wot r we goin to do?
Jedi master says: shoot him
match-maker says: control the anger Lukie
Jedi master says: Luke
match-maker says: okay Luk(i)e
Rogue one says: just call him Luke, Wes
match-maker says: okay, sorry Luke
Indigo says: what's the big deal, Isolder is cute.
Holly stared at the screen, shocked, but slightly amused at what might happen next.
match-maker says: TRAITORIOUS WITCH!!!!
Hobbie says: BURN THE WITCH!!!!!
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: It is a big deal, Han really loves Leia.
Jedi master says: and Leia loves him.
match-maker says: way to go Lukie (you are officially called Lukie now, tough luck(ie))
Hobbie says: and prince pretty face probably doesn't care 2 straws about her.
match-maker says: HOBBIE!!!!!!!!!!
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: shooting him is a good idea, wot about forcing pirate to marry princess?
Indigo says: who?
Rogue one says: pirateHan princessLeia
match-maker says: WEDGE!!!!!!!!!!
Rogue one says: SHUT UP!!!!!!!
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: and if they don't marry, Han will drink himself to death and Leia will leap off a bridge, it's like Romeo and Juliet in reverse.
match-maker says: ...
No one 'talked' for about five minutes, Holly used the time to check that non of the programs she'd use to check out Han and Indigo's history had broken or needed to be installed again and to check her emails.
Jedi master says: at last some silence
match-maker says: LUKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hobbie says: did you see them when Han got off the ship?
'price' Isolder is a poser says: I don't like watchin people kiss.
match-maker says: its true love, we have to get them together
Indigo says: and keep the Prince out the way
match-maker says: THE WITCH HAS JOINED US!!!!
Rogue one says: welcome to the light side.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: we have cookies!
Indigo says: where?
Rogue one says: in a random shop, you have to buy light side cookies yourself
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: LOL
match-maker says: wot does that mean?
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: laugh out loud, but it can mean lot's of love.
match-maker says: didn't know you cared (heart)
Holly rolled her eyes and quickly typed in her reply.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: I don't, I meant it in the laughing way.
match-maker says: way to break a guy's heart Holly
Hobbie says: yeah you made him cry
Jedi master says: say sorry
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: why?
Rogue one says: you made him cry
match-maker says: boo-hoo, cruel heartless woman
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: sorry wes (sigh)
match-maker says: yippee, do I still have a chance at winning your heart?
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: you're more likely to charm a rock.
match-maker says: ahhh, If I have learned anything from watching P&P its sarcasm is the best way of showing your true affections.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: in your dreams
Jedi master says: shouldn't you add 'flyboy' onto that.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: shut up lukie.
match-maker says: will you come to P&P's wedding with me?
Hobbie says: no.
match-maker says: i meant Holly, idiot. But if you love me then I'm not complaining.
Rogue one says: you owe it to him Hol.
Hobbie says: Wes, you git.
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: fine then, yes I will go to P&P's wedding with you Wes, if there is a wedding.
Indigo says: who is 'P&P'?!!!!!
"Indigo's really clueless," Holly thought laughing quietly.
match-maker says: princess & pirate
(match-maker has changed his name to 'I love Holly')
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: sigh
I love Holly says: change your name to 'I love Wes'
'prince' Isolder is a poser says: NO!
('prince' Isolder is a poser has changed her name to 'kill Isolder')
Jedi master says: why not 'lock Isolder in a cupboard for eternity'
kill Isolder says: too long, although that is a good plot to get rid of poser boy, lukie.
(Indigo has changed her name to 'Indiana Jones rules')
kill Isolder says: you can't have Indiana, he's mine!
Indiana Jones rules says: so wot, he's mine now
Hobbie says: he's not real
kill Isolder says: and?
I love Holly says: how could you betray me! I am so much nicer than the Solo look alike.
kill Isolder says: yeah and Indiana is nicer than Han, going into fantasy land now...
Hobbie says: Holly! Holly! Come back to us! resist the pull of Indiana!
kill Isolder says: damn it, you brought me back from my dream. don't worry Wes it wasn't about cute guys
I love Holly says: good, what was it about?
kill Isolder says: dunno
There was another pause in the messaging. Holly quickly logged onto a holonet news site, the main article was claiming that Leia would soon be marring Prince Isolder and that she had not yet accepted his proposition because she wanted to get to know him better. Holly muttered under her breath something about that being total crap and looked back at the older news articles, they could be very interesting. Quickly she found the oldest story about Leia and Isolder, she clicked on the link and the story came up. 'Senator Organa stormed out of the senate just after Prince Isolder proposed' was the first thing Holly picked out; Tiberion looked up at the picture.
"That look on her face reminds me of you," he commented, Holly gave him a funny look so he explained, "When Concorde breaks down and you won't give in till the stupid thing's fixed," Holly scowled as Tiberion insulted her ship. "I don't think she'd ever marry Isolder."
"I think your right Tibbi," Holly muttered looking at the picture of Leia storming out the senate hall, "It says here that she then had a big shouting match with Mon Mothma, but in this press release they say that Leia just wants to get to know Prince perfect better. Something fishy is going on here."
A light flashed at the bottom of the screen indicating someone was talking.
Jedi master says: err, back to Leia and Han
I love Holly says: LUKIE!!!!!!!! What's the plan from the great Jedi Lukie Skywalker?
Jedi master says: I don't have one.
I love Holly says: LUKIE!!!! You've let me down (and you should change your name to LUKIE!!!!)
Jedi master says: shut up Wes.
I love Holly says: mind tricks don't work on holonet, hahahahahahahahahahaha (evil laugh)
kill Isolder says: let's set Vader on him
Hobbie says: who? Lukie (sorry it's catchy) or prince perfect
kill Isolder says: git prince of course, duh
Indiana Jones rules says: how 'bout lock them in a cupboard till Han proposes.
Jedi master says: or Leia rips his head off.
I love Holly says: I LOVE YOU HOLLY!!!!!
(kill Isolder has changed her name to 'kill wes janson')
I love Holly says: rubbish name
kill wes janson says: grrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!! I won't try and shoot you 'cause I would just destroy the computer screen.
I love Holly says: will you marry me Holly?
kill wes janson says: NO!!!!!!! GO AND DIE!!!!
Rogue one says: he's not serious Holly don't worry, he asked me last week.
kill wes janson says: Wedge, he was serious about that.
I love Holly says: I wasn't serious... I was drunk.
Rogue one says: It was still disturbing though. I have to have therapy now.
(kill wes janson has changed her name to 'red blood in the snow')
Hobbie says: deep name and pretty cool whilst being scary.
I love Holly says: LUKIE!!!!!
Jedi master says: WHY DO YOU KEEP SAYING THAT?!?!?!?!
I love Holly says: cause i have nothing else to say.
Indiana Jones rules says: gotta go. bye
I love Holly says: INDY DON'T GO!!!!!!
Indiana Jones rules says: Indigo, not Indy. I'm hungry.
red blood in the snow says: BY-EEEEE! See ya when you walk to the kitchen to get food.
(Indiana Jones rules has left the conversation)
I love Holly says: Han 4 Leia 4 ever
Rogue one says: let's just ignore him, maybe he'll go away
red blood in the snow says: good idea.
(I love Holly has changed his name to 'I'm going to the pirate's wedding with HOLLY!')
red blood in the snow says: if there is a wedding, which I really hope there is.
Hobbie says: why, do you love Wes?
I'm going to the pirate's wedding with HOLLY! says: yes she does!
red blood in the snow says: no, it's because those 2 have been through a lot together and deserve to be together.
Rogue one says: have you read the papers?
red blood in the snow says: no, why?
I'm going to the pirate's wedding with HOLLY! says: I haven't either
Jedi master says: they are sure Leia will marry Isolder.
red blood in the snow says: let's prove them wrong.
I'm going to the pirate's wedding with HOLLY! says: yeah, I hate newspapers, we should show them. group name 'P&P wedding committee'
red blood in the snow says: cool name
Rogue one says: like it, but I prefer 'stopping Wes messing about with other's love lives' or SWMAWOLL for short.
Hobbie says: LOL.
red blood in the snow says: Tiberion says: "you call that short?" and Indigo says: "I like pie."
red blood in the snow says: No I didn't (from Indigo)
Holly decided to leave the conversation at that point, her eyes were sore from sheer exhaustion and her brain wasn't functioning properly, she quickly shut down the computer and trailed off to bed.
Please tell me what you think!
