THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED Part 10

Bob: I'm so glad to finally have that jerk off my mind...

Melissa: Mmm-hmmm... Now we can move on.

Deano: ...

Iggy: That Sugall really helped us. I just wish he could come along...

Roxy: Well, he's a special agent. He's got a job to do.
To herself My god he's cute !!

Morice: Arguing with Mary Damn it Mary !! Our dishes are just fine !!

Mary: We just need to spice them up !! You don't get it Morice !!

Morice: Our dishes are fine without your "spicing up" !!

Mary: You know what Morice !? If the dishes are so great without any spicing up, the you can MAKE THEM WITHOUT ME !!

Morice: FINE !! GO !! I don't need YOUR HELP !!

Bob: Oh boy...

Melissa: C'mon you two...

Iggy: Can't you guys just agree to disagree ??

Morice & Mary: NO !!

Bob: Well, It's not all Morice's fault... He's trying to keep the recepies just the way they are. I can't blame him for that.

Melissa: Oh yeah right... Morice won't let Mary help make them better !

Bob: I think that the dishes were fine without any extra stuff.

Melissa: Well, sometimes a little extra kick makes meals better !

Bob: So you're saying to change the something that's already good ?

Melissa: I'm saying that sometimes things can be improved !!

Bob: THEY'RE FINE AS IS !!

Melissa: THEY COULD USE IMPROVEMENT !!

Bob: THEY'RE FINE !!

Melissa: THEY CAN BE BETTER !!

Bob: GAH !! There's no talking to you sometimes !!

Melissa: You're such a FING DUMBASS SOMETIMES !!

They get in eachother's faces, and keep screaming at one another

Deano: Starts crying I can't... I can't do this anymore...

Roxy: Huh ? Deano... What's wrong ?

Deano: I need to go... I'm sorry...

Roxy: Deano !! Don't... sigh

He walks down another road, leading into the forest

Roxy: To herself The group is disintigrating... This is terrible...

Mundle: Tears appear in his eyes

Roxy: I know Mundle... It's ok...We'll do what we can to help...

Melissa & Bob walk opposite directions, as do Morice & Mary

Iggy: I can't believe it... All this time on the road... Worthless...

Roxy: This can't be... We have to do something...

Iggy: What can we do ? Everyone but us is gone...

Roxy: I don't know... Let's sit and think... Hopefully something will pop into our heads...

Elsewhere

Deano: I wish I knew what to do...

Deano: I feel like I let them down...

?: Deano...

Deano: Huh ?? Who's there !?

?: Deano, you idiot...

?: You didn't let your friends down ! You let yourself down !!

Deano: Who are you !?

?: It's me.

Deano: Uncle Doug ?

?: No, You dimwitt !!

?: Sherman !!

Deano: Uncle Sherman !?

Sherman: Who else do you think would be way the hell out here ?

Deano: How'd you find me ?

Sherman: I came to the same place, when I was your age. I knew you'd give up... It runs in the male side of the family.

Deano: I don't know what to do...

Sherman: Deano, you do know what to do. Look inside your heart.

Deano: I didn't want to go... I just did Because Bob forced me to...

Sherman: Deano, don't blame Bob for leaving ! YOU chose to go with him !
You know for a fact that you wanted to leave for your own reasons !!

Deano: Yeah... You're right... But.. what should I do ?

Sherman: Get back on that road Deano. Go finish your dream !!

Deano: Thanks Uncle Sherman !

Runs off to find the group

Roxy: Sigh I can't think of anything...

Iggy: Huh... Neither can I...

Deano: Guys !!

Roxy: Deano !?

Iggy: You're back !!

Deano: We gotta find the others.

?: I may be able to assist you with that...

Deano: Who are you ?

?: I am Serina. I think I can help you.

Deano: How ?

Serina: I need you to gather some things for me...

Deano: Ok, what ?

Serina: I require a Red berry, a purple berry, a twig, a bowl of some sort, and vines.

Deano: Ok... But why... She cuts him off

Serina: Just get these things for me !!

Deano: OK OK !! I'm goin'

Roxy: Umm, what about us ?

Serina: You 3... I will need you to find your friends. They are the key ingredient for this to work.

Iggy: Ingredient ??

Serina: Yes, we need their presence.

Roxy: What is all the other stuff for ?

Serina: We need the berries, twig, and bowl to create a potion that will eliminate your friends' anger. The spicy and bitter taste fused together create a wonderous sweet taste, that will make anyone's anger disappear in less than 5 minutes.

Roxy: Sounds good... But... What are the vines for ??

Serina: Heh... Believe me... With your Friends' anger at this point, you're gonna need them...

Deano: Huff, Huff Ok... I'm back...

Serina: Excellent... Now, You three. Take the vines, find your friends, and tie them up.
Then bring them back here.

Deano: And me ?

Serina: You... I will need you to mix these ingredients in the bowl. Stir the red and purple berries together, until it turns a very dark color, and looks like jelly. Tell me when you're done, and DO NOT EAT ANY !! She gets in Deano's Face

Deano: Got it...

Off in the woods

Roxy: Ok, let's find Morice and Mary first.

Iggy: There's Mary !

Roxy: Ok... We need to catch her in a cage.

Mundle: I'LL BUILD ONE.

Iggy: Ok, I'll look around for the others, and let you know where they are when I spot them.

Roxy: Ok.

Mundle: DONE.

Roxy: Good... One, two, three... GO !

They surprise her, and catch her in the cage

Mary: Gah !! Get me out of here !!

Roxy: Sorry, no can do...

Mary: Grrrr... I'll get you guys for this !!

Mundle: GOTTA FIND MORICE NEXT.

Roxy: Right... Iggy ?

Iggy: Found him. He's not too far from here.
C'mon !

Roxy: Sneaking around in the bushes

Iggy: Hiding nearby, blending in with the ground

Roxy: Giving the signal She throws the vine to Iggy

Morice: What the !?

Iggy: Wrapping it around his legs

Morice: Gah !! You guys !! This will not go unpunished !!

Roxy: Yeah, Yeah...

Iggy: Hey, I spotted Bob nearby too.

Roxy: Ok, we may need Mundle for this.

Mundle: OK, I'LL HELP GRAB BOB.

Iggy: I'll climb into the tree, and drop the rope Roxy.

Roxy: Ok. Mundle, can you act like a rock, and grab Bob when I give this signal ?
Shows a thumbs up hand sign

Mundle: OK.

Iggy: Here he comes...

Roxy: Thumbs Up to Mundle

Mundle: YAH !!

Bob: Grrrahhhhhhhh !! Get off me !!

Mundle: NO. IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD.

Roxy: Sorry Bob, but it's time to set you guys straight !

Bob: No way !! I'm not going anywhere !! Especially with Melissa !!

Roxy: Gee, that's funny... Cause last time I checked, we're the ones who are holding you down, and have rope...

Bob: Damn...

Iggy: Melissa's Nearby, at the stream.

Roxy: She'll be alot tougher to catch...

Mundle: LET'S USE A NET, AND ROPE.

Roxy: Yeah, we'll chase her down, right into a net, that we set up ahead of time.

Iggy: Ok. I'll go set up the net.

Roxy: Right. Let's get to it !

They find Melissa

Roxy: Found you !!

Melissa: Doesn't matter. You can't catch me. Runs

Mundle: SHE'S COMIN' IGGY !

Iggy: Right.

Melissa: Nice try Roxy, but the only way you'd catch me is with a net right in front of... AWW SHIT !! She runs right into it, and gets caught

Roxy: You were Saying ??

Melissa: Grrrrr... I hate you guys right now...

Iggy: Alright, we got em'.

Roxy: Let's get back to Deano and Serina.

They head back

Serina: Wow. You guys did catch them ! Good work.
And just in time. The elixer is ready.

Bob: Who's this old hag ?

Serina: Excuse me ?

Bob: You heard me, HAG !!

Serina: I'm afraid I have to teach you never to say that to a woman...

She Kicks him where it hurts

Bob: Speechless, falls over

Melissa: Serves you right...

Melissa: Ooph !! Serina shoves some elixir in her mouth

She does the same to the others as well.

Deano: I hope this works...

Serina: It's never failed yet.

Roxy: Yet ?!

Serina: Yes. Don't worry. They'll most likely fall asleep for about half an hour.
It means that the elixer has taken effect, and when they wake up, they'll be back to normal...

Roxy: Ahhh finally...

The ones who are still awake, lay back and relax for a bit.

Iggy: Well, let's wait and see...

Serina: It will work, just have to be patient. She changes into a bathing suit, puts sunglasses on, and begins to tan

Roxy: Hehe, someone's got the right idea. Roxy does the same
