It Makes Me Happy

It had been several hours since anyone had last seen the young queen of Cyclonia, and people were beginning to worry. And get scared.

The last time she had disappeared this long several Talons had gone missing as well. They had popped up hours later, complete wrecks. They jumped at every noise, made quick panicky movements, and above all else kept muttering "No, no, I'm quite fine. Thank you anyway."

This phenomenon had been occurring for over three weeks by now, becoming the next big mystery of the Terra (the second being why gravity went on vacation every Saturday). It was a mystery that Ravess intended to get to the bottom of. Walking down the halls to her master's quarters she was downright determined to figure out what was going on…and hopefully keep her wits about her when she found out what was traumatizing the Talons so badly.

The Dark Ace caught up to her as she stalked down the hall. "I'm telling you, leave it alone."

She ignored his suggestion. "I told you that if you didn't want to come, you didn't have to."

He shrugged. "I can't run the risk of you losing your mind when you find out what's going on."

"So you do know what's happening to the Talons then?"

"No, not a clue."

She looked at him annoyed before coming to a stop, having arrived at Master Cyclonis's room, the only place no one dared enter unless permitted. And also the one place no one had been brave enough to check when she went missing. There was an awkward silence as the two Talon Commanders stood before the almost foreboding door.

"Well," The Dark Ace said, "it was nice working with you Ravess." He promptly turned and started walking away. Ravess reached out and snagged his arm, pulling him back to the doorway.

"Don't be such a coward!" She hissed quietly, reaching out and turning the doorknob. He looked at her warily, "Don't you think we should-

A Talon exploded from the room, running down the hall, screaming at the top of his lungs. Ravess, who had also let out a startled yelp, peeked out from behind the Dark Ace after a few seconds. He looked down at her dryly. "Knock?" He scoffed, pushing the door open with his foot in case anymore Talons came running out. "And what was that about being a coward?" She made a face at him and walked into the room, sticking close to his side.

The Dark Ace sighed, starting to get exasperated with the whole ordeal. "Master?" He called, his voice echoing down the hall. Ravess looked at him like he was a mad man. "What?"

"Not only are we entering without permission, but we are also entering a room someone just ran screaming from!"

He would have replied, but they had just rounded a corner, entering the main room. And what caught their attention in the main room left them at a loss for words. There, in the center of the room, was a small round table that sat close to the floor. It was covered in what looked like a dainty white table cloth, small plates and…tea cups?

Master Cyclonis turned from her small circle of Talons, who were all sitting rather fearfully around the table. A tea pot occupied one of her hands while a small plate of mini cakes was in the other. The small smile on her face slipped when she noticed her Commander's wide eyed stares of disbelief. "It makes me happy..." She snarled, putting down her tea pot and plate rather roughly.

Ravess, defrosting from her initial shock, elbowed the Dark Ace. He looked down at her, agitated, his expression speaking wonders. What on Atmos do you WANT me to say?

Ravess, seeing that he was not going to be any use cleared her throat nervously, knowing their master was not entirely pleased with them at the moment. "W-well, whatever makes you happy Master-

"I SAID NO ELBOWS ON THE TABLE!" Master Cyclonis whirled about, pointing her staff in the face of one of the Talons. He levitated off the ground for a few seconds before dropping back down several feet away. Getting to his feet he ran from the room screaming, escaping in much the same manner as the Talon before him.

"-makes us happy too…" Ravess finished in a tiny voice.

"Well," Master Cyclonis said, smirking as she put her staff down and picked up her tea pot and cakes like nothing had happened, "it seems there are two new openings at the table." She looked pointedly at her Commanders, daring them to defy her.

The Dark Ace paused before glaring down at Ravess.

"I blame you."

Do what makes you happy

Because, I can just SEE her having evil tea parties. I just can.

Anyway, I'm back. For how long who knows. Ideas have been flooding in periodically, and no matter how hard I try to shove them away and focus on my own stuff, I can't. So, I'm writing them down. This spot will probably remain a drabble spot of humor but don't be surprised if a few other ones pop up that are completely opposite of humor.

Oh, and they aren't quite drabbles, are they? They're more like short stories. I apologize; I have a hard time condensing, don't I?

Anyway, if you could leave a review that would be cool :]
