A/N Thank you, kitty-kat-girlyyyxxx, Chipette Star, Pca Student, PlatinumGal, and CrazyPops D for reviewing! Thank you kitty-kat-girlyyyxxx, PlatinumGal, and CrazyPops D for the song suggestions! I took a look at all of them and damn, it's a bit eerie how much the songs describe the couple! I might just use a few of them in a few upcoming chapters. ^_^ And to PlatinumGal: Your guess was right, but SHHH, plz? To the rest of my readers: You'll see what the answer is in an upcoming chapter! ^_^ Please, please read and review, and have some cake and a cookie! (::)
Shrek
I woke up with an uneasy feeling in my gut. As I got up off the hard ground, I yawned and glanced around the small camp, my gaze finally landing on Eva and Artie. I let a small smile creep over my face at the scene.
Eva was snuggled up against Artie, her head tucked underneath his chin. One hand rested on his heart, while the other one was on his stomach. Artie had both of his arms wrapped around the girl's waist protectively, one hand was resting on her thigh while the other one was on her waist. Both of them had soft smiles on their faces.
In the background, I heard a bird chirping, only to squawk like it was hit with something. I turned around and then noticed trees that weren't there yesterday. Hearing rustling, I glanced around again to see some of the trees moving towards us.
Oh, this can't be good.
Hearing a thud, I turned slightly to see Eva and Artie on the ground, scrambling to get up, blushes on both of their faces. Piano music started playing, then Captain Hook with a piano appeared.
'Look out! They got a piano!', Donkey yelled as the trees backed us all up to the center of the camp.
'Fuck the piano!', Eva muttered, drawing her sword.
'Kill them all, except the fat one. King Charming has something special in mind for you, ogre', Hook stated, pointing to me.
'King Charming?', I repeated.
'Attack!', Hook shouted, then a bunch of men swung down from the trees.
'Game on', Eva whispered, a killer smile on her face.
Eva
'Game on', I whispered, letting a smile slip onto my face as I let Dreyrgjarn start to control my actions.
I can control Dreyrgjarn enough so that I won't go on a killing spree. I only let myself go until I have enough "blood lust" to quicken my actions and to strengthen my blows.
A few men came at me, but faltered slightly when they saw my insane grin. Before I could stop myself, I knocked by their defenses and killed them on the spot.
A small spot of guilt imbedded itself in my heart, but I tried to ignore it as the battle progressed. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Artie using the battle skills I taught him.
Suddenly, a man grabbed me from behind and another one wrenched my sword from my hand.
Breaking free from the man's grip, I didn't hesitate to pick him up and throw him across the field and into a tree. I didn't realize that the men backed Artie, Donkey and Puss up to me, or the net we were standing on, until the net was yanked up by two tree-people, trapping all of us in one place. Only then did I notice the cannon aimed right at us. Puss unsheathed one of his claws and desperately started to saw through the thick rope.
'Shrek! Help!', Artie and Donkey yelled, making me flinch slightly. Shrek jumped onto the wooden plank and threw a chest onto the other side, making him fly through the air and land right in front of the cannon. He grabbed the front of it and strained to lift it up. Meanwhile, the fuse was burning down quickly. We all huddled down as the fuse burned. We all heard a grunt and then a blast. The piano music that was playing stopped abruptly with the sound of wood breaking.
The trees dropped us, and we all landed on the ground roughly. As fate would have it, I landed on top of Artie.
Dammit Fate, are you trying to torture me?
I quickly scrambled off of him, feeling heat seep into my cheeks.
'Ye cowards!', the man with a hook for a hand yelled, shaking said hook at the retreating men.
Now that I saw completely sane, I flinched at the sight of the bodies on the ground; killed by my hand. My heart twinged with guilt and remorse.
'What has Charming done with Fiona?', Shrek asked menacingly, stalking up to Hook-man.
Charming...why does that name seem so familiar?
'She's gonna get what's coming to her! And their ain't nothing you can do to stop him!', Hook-man yelled as he was getting carried away by a tree-person.
Donkey, Puss, Artie and I all ran up to Shrek, avoiding the bodies.
'We've got to save her!', Puss exclaimed.
'But she's so far far away!', Donkey added.
Shrek thought for a moment before turning to us saying, 'Get yourselves back to Worcestershire.'
I opened my mouth to protest, but Artie cut me off, saying, ' No, Shrek, hold on a sec, I have an idea'
Closing my mouth, I watched Artie walk up to Merlin, who was pretending to be a bee, and try to convince him to help us.
'Forget it, I don't have that kind of magic in me anymore. How about a hug, that's the best kind of magic!', Merlin replied to Artie's pleas, offering him a hug.
I've always thought that man was a pedophile.
As soon as I saw Artie's eyebrows head south, I knew exactly what he was about to do. I covered my mouth with my hand once Artie started sniffing and "sobbing". Once he started talking, I had to hide behind Shrek's back so that I wouldn't ruin Artie's effect.
'-There's a mean person doing really mean things to people-!', Artie sobbed, making me pound against Shrek's back weakly, trying extremely hard not to make a sound.
Thank you, Drama, class!
'Ok, I'll go get my things',Merlin stated, running off to do the latter.
I wiped the tears off of my face and followed Shrek to where Artie was getting up off the ground.
'Piece of cake', he stated, winking at me and making my heart flutter.
'Well, well, would you like some eggs with that ham?', Shrek asked, smirking at him.
I hugged him and stated, 'That was epic!'
He smiled and hugged me briefly, pulling away when Merlin came back.
'Now, I am a little rusty, so there might be some side effects', the old wizard stated, coming back with a pointy hat and an old book.
'Side effects?', Donkey repeated, looking a bit alarmed.
'Don't worry. Whatever it is, no matter how excruciating painful it may be, it will wear off eventually. I think', Merlin reassured, not really sounding too confident.
He cracked his knuckles and released a magical beam from it, blowing a rock near Donkey to pieces.
'Are you sure this is a good idea?', Donkey asked, jumping away from the rock.
'If Artie and Eva trust him, then that's good enough for me', Shrek stated, then added, 'Even if his robe doesn't quite cover...'
I only shook my head and covered my eyes. I really don't wanna see old-man parts!
'Alacritious expeditious...a-zoomy-zoom-zoom! Let's help our friends get back...um, soon!', Merlin said dramatically, moving his hands in strange ways, then released this blue-whiteish magic that surrounded us like a cocoon.
I felt this strange sense of weightlessness, then this feeling like I was flying. It was really weird. Suddenly, we all dropped from a cloud and into a tree that was right below us. I managed to grab on to the first branch that I hit and hold on to it while the others fell to the ground, hitting more branches on the way.
'Man, I haven't been on a trip like that since collage', Puss said, but he sounded like Donkey.
I was laughing so hard I nearly fell off of my branch when Puss, in Donkey's body, dropped out of the tree and started complaining about his new body.
'So, you two think this is funny?', Donkey asked, pointing at Artie and Shrek, who were laughing.
'Three, actually', I added in between my giggles, swinging down from my branch to the ground.
'Damn, I wish I had a camcorder, I could make a million off of you two!', I exclaimed, earning identical glares from Puss and Donkey.
'I'm really sorry guys', Artie said after he got over his laughing fit.
'Don't be, you got us back, kid', Shrek stated, pointing to a vast city in the distance.
I presume that is Far Far Away. We all started for the city, Artie and I walking side by side until we got to the road. For some reason, I felt a growing sense of unease as we headed for the city. Donkey and Puss were still complaining about their new bodies.
'If you two don't stop complaining, I'll give you something to complain about!', I stated after awhile, reaching back to pat the hilt of my sword, only to find it wasn't there.
Ah, shit!
Dammit, I think I left my sword at Merlin's with the bodies. I had to suppress a shiver of guilt as I thought about the bodies in the clearing. After about 10 minutes, Shrek started running towards a huge gate with the words "Far Far Away" engraved in the stone above it. The others had to run to catch up to him, while I only jogged. We all stopped once we got inside the gate and looked at the town, or should I say remains of the town.
