Wellllll...I just got a new favorite manga, even though its for kids.
Zania-Oh great! Now not only do I have to deal with your friends' stupidity, I have to deal with your stupidity. Life is grand...
(Hits Zania with a book) Why can't you be more like E? She's so sweet, kind, and passive!
E-(watching Dora the Explorer) MY LORD, DORA, THE STUPID BARN IS BEHIND YOU! YOU'RE SUCH A RETARD, WHY DO THE SHOW US THIS CRAP!
Everyone-O.O
E-O.O (getting looked at and sort of embarressed) Hehehehe...nevermind, please forget that happened...
Why me? I wonder when PinkBlackSk8ter and Richerd are coming back from their cruise...
So, that's the kind of girl you like, pt. 1
Aikome resisted the urge to yawn, making it sound like a hack. She hadn't gotten any sleep for three weeks already and they hadn't found The Mirror yet. Aikome and Jako hadn't even got to see half the palace yet. "Hey, Aikome-san, you alright?" Boomer looked at her. Jako had been stationed outside the door. They could only search when Zania was out, otherwise Boomer would have to accompany them….or Zania would probably feed them to Supa.
"Just a little tired, Boomer-ouji…" She said, rubbing her eyes. She looked tired. She had light bags under her patchwork skin, she was much slower, and her mind wandered off.
"Why don't you sleep right now? Zania isn't here and if someone catches you, I'll tell them that I gave you permission." The word sleep sounded good. So good that she complied with his wish without delay. Boomer laughed when his friend toppled on the ground in a huddle and soft snores emerged from her throat. Even though he hated this palace and would give anything to watch it go up in flames (oh lord, he's been around Zania for too long), it felt good to share this experience with his friends. Now it didn't feel as frightening if you ignore all the carnage and screams that continue throughout the night and the fact that Zania probably sneaks into his room and stares dreamily at him while he's sleep. Boomer shuddered. Every day he spent with her, he felt like she was growing even crazier. He had no idea.
Zania began to notice something about Boomer. He was spending less time with her and more time about the castle. She was getting curious, so one day she decided to follow him and find out what he was doing. It was relatively easy, all she had to do was camouflage as one of her workers and she'd see. The first day, she camouflaged as a female cook and went to the kitchen, cooking up her disastrous foods. Boomer came in as usual. He had taken to getting snacks out of the waiters and waitresses. A girl looked up and smiled. She wore a red shawl around her neck. "Hey, Boomer, did you have a nice sleep?" How dare she not use an honorable tone with him! She was so informal! Zania wanted to snap her neck. Boomer came up and hugged her.
"Gumi! How nice to see you! I didn't know you were on the kitchen staff."
"Yup, I wasn't here for a few days because one of the janitors actually ate one of her highness' blue popsicles, so I was clean-up until they got another one…kinda sad, huh? And his wife is expecting his baby this week." They were standing so close, Zania's eyes widened. Maybe she really WASN'T the love of his life. She had to be, she just had to! Then Zania glanced at Gumi again. There wasn't much of a difference between them. Both of their hair was black. There must be something special about her. It couldn't be her face, no way in heck. No, it wasn't her shape, they both had the same curve (barely developing)…it couldn't be the clothes, Zania's clothes were better then those slave clothes…what could it have been?
Her shawl! Boomer-kun likes girls who wear shawls! Of course! Bubbles must have worn a shawl from time to time, but now that she's gone, he found a new girl…well; Zania was going to be that girl! No matter what…
"Thanks for the cookies, Gumi. I'll see you tomorrow, okay?" Gumi nodded and waved while he left. Zania walked out the opposite way and changed back to herself with tears streaming down her face.
It doesn't matter; I'll just get to work…
Gumi was walking down the street towards her quarters. Today, she had to make a few adjustments to her path so she wouldn't run into any Z-minions. Those monsters were nasty, they attacked anything that moved. Once, she almost got enticed by a Z-charmer…thankfully, her friends got to her before he could go further. Gumi touched her lips. He had kissed her actually. It felt weird, but…Gumi looked up and saw herself in an alley.
"Oops, I must have taken a wrong turn…" She whispered, slowly backing out. Suddenly, a clawed glove grabbed her arm and dragged Gumi back in, pinning her against the wall. Zania's eyes met with her. "Y-your Highness! I-I-I'm sorry; I didn't s-see you!" Zania's eyes narrowed.
"Who are you to, Boomer-kun? A puny, powerless girl like you? A stupid human…he's better then a human, fool, we belong together…I won't let him damage his bloodline just because of your stupid shawl…" Zania hissed, gripping her neck. Her blade-like claws sunk deep into her flesh. Gumi let out a gasp and gripped Zania's arm, wanting to pull it off, but she couldn't.
"I-I'm not doing anything wrong! We're j-just friends! We had fifth period together! I-I-I used to sit at his table with Bubbles and Maxwell! We're…friends…please…" Her oxygen was slowly decreasing and her heart was pounding, trying to get some air.
"Liar, I won't let you take him away." Finally, Gumi went limp and Zania let her drop to the floor. After checking her pulse, she smiled and ripped the shawl away, warping it around her shoulders. Now, I am the girl that Boomer-kun likes…
Boomer appeared at the dinner table, happily stuffed with edible food since he ate a lot before dinner time. He sat at the table with Zania sitting contently in her seat, stuffing her face with pig heads. Boomer noticed the red shawl around her shoulders. "Hey, Zania-sama, where'd you get the shawl?" She smiled.
"You like it? I got it from a servant girl in return for her freedom…she won't be back actually, but oh well…" Boomer felt a weird feeling in his stomach. The shawl looked awfully familiar.
(PB8R and Richerd are standing in a lifeboat watching the cruise ship burn)
PB8R-Richerd, what the heck was that!
Richerd-What was what? I'm not sure I know what your talking about...
PB8R-You sunk the entire cruise ship, Richerd!
Richerd-Are you sure that was me? I'm sure I'd remember something like that.
PB8R-I watched you harpoon the captain's face!
Richerd-That sounds dangerous.
PB8R-You were headbutting children overboard!
Richerd-That must have been horrifying to watch!
PB8R-Then I watched you make out with the ice sculpture!
Richerd-Hey, the kids didn't see it!
PB8R-By the way, what's this red stuff in our boat?
Richerd-Oh, there IS red stuff!
PB8R-What am I sitting in?
Richerd-Would you believe...strawberry milkshake?
PB8R-No...
Richerd-Melted gummy bears?
PB8R-No, I would not believe that?
Richerd-Would you believe me if I said that I colored on the floor with so much red ink, it couldn't absorb it anymore?
PB8R-No, I wouldn't.
Richerd-Boat nectar?
PB8R-Just tell me the truth!
Richerd-Fine...that family from down the hallway...
PB8R-...RI-ICHERD!
Richerd-Hey, their son was taking all the desserts and they wouldn't make him stop!
PB8R-Richerd, I can't believe...
Richerd-I will not apologize for art.
PB8R-Where are the other life boats?
Richerd-Whoa, you won! I didn't even notice!
PB8R-Where are they, Richerd?
Richerd-Looking at the trajectory of the moon and the sun, probably the bottom of the ocean. Fun stuff, hole punchers.
PB8R-You are just terrible today!
Richerd-Shh...you hear that? That's the sound of forgiveness...
PB8R-That's the sound of people drowning!
Richerd-That's what forgiveness sounds like! :D
