Percival then narrated, "This is a heavy disclaimer. It says, and I quote…"

Michael Cole snapped, "HEY!"

Percival continued, "I… Miz-K Takase (Who, for unknown reason, is not here, at this time), do not own the rights or the characters to Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Cromartie High, Azumanga Daioh, Pokémon, and School Rumble for this chapter! The creation and roles of it here is purely coincidental. As for the 33rd chapter of "Miyazawa and May", I will conclude the Maidens for Hire appearances in this chapter and will introduce another OC of mine, coming soon."

Cole sighed, "So… finally a little Hanna-Barbera in this story?"

"Uh, actually, Scooby Doo's newest chapter is owned by Warner."

"Oh. Won't we get in trouble for using them?"

"Shut up, Cole!"

Acknowledged, Miz-K


Chapter 33
Maiden Special (Part 2)


Tomo was in a small room, tied up and was alone. Of course, she was plugged in, since she cannot die… at least, not until the kidnappers, Fred and Fred, do something about it.

"Hey, guys!" She called out, "I hope you're not going to hurt me. Eri Model will think of a way! Please let me go and I'll give it to you! But I want to know what you are planning for our recipe!"

A man in glasses, black hair, and a business suit grumbled, "Sniffling snot cakes! Will you shut up?"

A man in brown hair and a mustache, wearing pants and suspenders, nodded at her, without saying a word, while a guitar riff is playing.


Meet Fred and Fred: Mayor Fred Jones Sr. from "Scooby Doo: Mystery Inc." and Freddie from "Cromartie High"


Fred then snuffed, "Come on! You Maidens don't know when to shut up, right?"

"You can talk!" Tomo shouted, "I never have seen you take something from me!"

Fred then smiled, "It's all about the money. Ever since the worlds had been mixed, my partner and I wanted to invest. We've decided to earn money out of financial gain, but only for the honest way."

He then muttered, "Except my mute friend let's me speak, now and then."

Freddie nodded.

"So, why did you want our recipe? You wouldn't even like it." Tomo remarked.

He replied, "That's none of your business. When was the last time I tasted your food?"

Tomo grinned, "Oh, please… We cook to perfection! Why do you think Miss Mizuhara and Miss Sawachika built us for?"

Fred said, "Come to think of it, you're right. Very good point. But that's no excuse on not giving me the recipe."

She growled, "Oh, you're no worse than Eri Maiden."

He said, "She'll be here… or else."

Freddie pulled out a guitar and started to strum. Fred Sr. listened on, as he sat by Tomo.

"How hard is it to bounce back, after losing your job as Mayor of Crystal Cove?" He said, "I surely don't need automation, like you, and I sure as heck won't-. Glimmering Galleons, Freddie! Knock it off!"

Freddie stopped playing and bowed his head. Fred continued, "And I sure won't need you two robots to mess us up."

Tomo pouted, "I feel your pain, sir. Back then, our company was in a standstill, when I departed, by running away. I didn't want to be demolished, but at least, I won't be able to be by the company."

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"Beats me… But I heard that you were kicked out of office. That's sad. I ran away, before I was due to destruction. That's sadder… of course, it depends."

"Funny little Maiden for Hire… You sure don't get the idea that I want revenge on the people that shunned me!"

Freddie then asked, by signaling his hands. He pointed the plug.

"No… you wouldn't…" she cringed, "I need it to recharge…"

Fred unplugged her and said, "We don't need to waste electric energy now, won't we?"

Tomo was sad, as she was fully charged, but she cannot be plugged in again. Freddie then used a jar and put the plug in it.

"No!" Tomo cried.

Fred then snickered, "The clock is ticking…"

XXXXX

May and Eri arrived at a small apartment. The two Freds were there.

"They are up on the top floor," she said.

"Right. And when we find those two, they'll be sorry for hurting Tomo II!" May declared.

She then asked, "But… How? You're too shy to face them."

Eri then was puzzled, "Good point. I don't know if I could make the trip. My battery power is at 50%."

May declared, "How about if I deliver it for you?"

"What?"

"Hear me out: I step in, give them the recipe, and we leave with Tomo."

"But how?"

"How about if I become a Maiden, like you?"

Eri then said, "You know… That is a stupid idea… I like it! But I guess we have no choice."

She pulled out a huge trunk and opened it. She pulled May in and began to dress her up.


Ooh… pretty side wipe…


May then approached the front door, dressed in a green and red Maiden outfit, in a pattern of Italy.

"This is so cute…" she smiled, "Reminds me of pasta and such. Man, I have to finish this mission, before I eat. Be still, stomach."

She went inside and ran upstairs. She arrived at the door and knocked, while holding the folder, which had the recipe.

"Who is it?" Fred called out.

"It's a Maiden with a Maiden Special delivery!" May called back.

He opened the door and saw May.

"Who are you?" Fred asked.

May replied, "I am May, Model number, uh, M19. I got your message from Tomo Model II."

Fred then smiled, "Well, come on in."

"I want to know, before I give it to you," May said, "Why do you want this?"

"Oh, simply for money."

"Extortion?"

"No. I thought maybe I'd make it up for losing my Mayoral job, back then… and for escaping from Crystal Cove. I don't want to talk about it."

"Ouch…"

"Anyway, I haven't seen you, lately. Are you a newer model?"

"Uh… yeah… I'm a compact version. I'm only small, but I work properly.

"Okay, good. Freddie! Let Tomo go!"

May gave Fred the recipe, as Tomo was free. May and Tomo left, as Fred read the recipe with Freddie.

"Jumping Jerboas! This makes no sense at all! But at least we got it!"

They went to the kitchen, as the Maidens and May left. Freddie then thought about the May Maiden.

He wrote on a chalkboard: "THAT was NO Maiden! She had no button!"

"Enh… Must be those newer models," Fred said, "Besides, she's probably lifelike."

Freddie then wrote on the board: "Idiot…"

Grrr…

"What was that?" Fred asked.

He stepped out and saw May, holding her stomach.

"Shh… Stomach," she whispered.

Fred then seethed, "Freddie was right!"

She then went down the stairs, as Fred scoffed, "Of course, their fuel is electricity. It must be a lifelike model."

He wrote: NO, IT'S NOT! SHE'S HUMAN!

Fred Sr. gasped, "Hey… Wait a minute!"

He thought, "That Maiden never bowed. She must be… She must be a defective unit… or some type of spy android. If that's the case…"

He stepped out and saw May, on the bottom floor. He cried out, "HEY! STOP HER! That Maiden is an imposter! Or, at least, some knock-off!"

May gasped, "Uh, oh."

Freddie growled and wrote: Shut up and get her!

"RUN!" Tomo cried out.

"Holy Krabbys!" May shouted, as they dashed down the stairs.

The Freds ran after them, as The Maiden and May arrived to the exit.

"Eri Maiden! Hurry!" She cried.

Eri shouted, "What's going on?"

May cried out, "They know!"

Eri Maiden signaled, "Run! Back to the diner!"

Fred Sr. appeared and glared at her, "Oh, no, you don't!"

May cringed, "Too late…"

Freddie smirked, "Well, well, well… Using a Maiden for Hire that is defective, or some sort of spy, to best at me, huh?"

May sobbed, "Sir, no… Not in my circuits. I beg of you. I'm just a newer and advanced model."

Eri whispered, "Play along."

Freddie wrote and showed: Who is she? No need for dramatics.

"I told you!" May cried, "I'm M19 – May Model!"

Freddie wrote: A likely story. You have no button.

May shouted, "Listen to me, you mute! You got something to say, say it now!"

Fred Sr. shouted, "I want that recipe, you brat of a robot!"

Freddie wrote: She's not a robot!

Eri snapped, "That's the recipe! You got what you want! Just leave our new sister alone!"

Fred then smirked, as Freddie shook his head, no.

He said, "Hmm… Sounds fair. This makes no sense, but knowing your culinary files, I'd say that you are A-OK, Maidens."

Freddie wrote a question mark on the board, and showed it, while smacking his head.

May sobbed, as she wept, "I didn't mean to do anything wrong. My big sister, Eri Model, is too shy to join you and deliver the recipe."

Fred Sr. snuffed, "I thought Maidens for Hire don't cry."

Freddie wrote: They do…

"I did not know that."

Don't listen to them, Jones.

"Oh, please… We got what we want. Maybe the company created a new type of realistic Maiden."

You said that she didn't bow!

May gasped, as Eri and Tomo whimpered, "We're screwed…"

Fred then turned to May and asked, "Well? What have you to say, Miss May Model; IF that's your real serial number?"

May then was nervous, as she then thought, "What to do… Think, Haruka… Think… What would a Maiden for Hire do, aside from Guaranteed Service?"

She then got an idea. In an instant, she closed her eyes and collapsed. She was playing dead, or at least, in a Maiden way.

Eri thought, "What is she doing?"

Tomo cried, "Oh, NO! May Model's batteries have died!"

Eri cried, "What?"

May winked, as Tomo smiled.

Tomo whispered, "Play along, stupid… She's onto something!"

They picked her up, as Tomo sobbed, "How could you? She needed to recharge her batteries, and you monsters made her stay! Heartless users!"

Freddie wrote: Okay… I was wrong…

Tomo sobbed, with tears in her eyes, "FINE! YOU WANT THAT RECIPE FOR YOUR NEEDS, BE MY GUEST!"

She then said, in anger, "But you two know this… that May Maiden may be your undoing."

Eri nodded and exclaimed, "She's right. Enjoy your Maiden Special… jerks!"

They left, as May opened her eyes, looking at Tomo, who was carrying her.

"Did they buy it?" She whispered.

Tomo shushed her. Both Freds were uneasy. But Fred Sr. was smiling in victory.

"I guess she was a Maiden, after all," he sighed.

He then cheered, "Oh, well… At least we won our prize! Let's go cook!"

Freddie then shook his head and wrote: I need to find a new Fred… or maybe that gorilla.

XXXXX

May and the Maidens were back in the diner. May said, "Well, at least they are happy. I cannot believe that they almost caught us."

Eri smiled, "I know… We almost would've been dolls, if May didn't resort to her shutdown mode."

She patted her head and giggled, "Miss Sawachika would be honored to create May Maidens, in a commemoration of your heroics!"

Tomo then said, "I know what you did was foolish, but thanks for saving me."

May said, "It's no problem. Oh, yeah… Can you make the Maidens named Haruka?"

Eri responded, "Sure. Why? Is that your real name?"

May smiled, as Eri nodded.

Tomo remarked, "Well… I'll call the offices about this, the minute our shift is finished. To repay you, I shall create the Maiden Special, just for you."

May squealed with glee.

"Eri, a little help here?" She called out.

Both Maidens began to work in the kitchen, cooking in a fast pace.

May was amazed, "Whoa! Super speed! Move over, 009! Maidens for Hire are very fast!"

Minutes later, the Maiden Special, which was nikujaga, blended with rice, carrots, and spices, was finished. Eri served it to May. May started to eat it. After the first bite, May was moved.

"Wow!" She sobbed, "It's so delicious!"

Yukino came out of the room and was in a puzzled look, "What did I miss?"

"Yuki!" She cheered, "Maiden Special!"

"Okay…" Yukino took a bite.

When she tasted it, she was amazed.

"Damn, that's good food! What is it?"

Tomo cheered, "Meat and potatoes, mixed with exotic Asian blends!"

Yukino smiled, "Just like home…"

May asked, "But wait… What about Fred and Freddie?"

"Oh, you'd understand the recipe, but it's too complicated to work it," Eri Maiden said.

Tomo Maiden replied, "She's right. What Fred Jones Sr. got was a recipe for our failed attempts at a super strong curry."

Meanwhile, Fred was eating the curry that he and Freddie made. Fred started to turn green and collapse. Freddie was unaffected. He was still eating.

"Bouncing… Blister Bunnies!" Fred cried in pain, "This is awful!"

Freddie said nothing. He continued to eat.

Tomo giggled, "For some reason, adding garlic and spinach into a Maiden Curry tastes very bland."

Eri said, "And the way you cook it, you must set it to 600 degrees for five minutes. Too bad we don't make Five-Alarm Maiden Chili."

Yukino then said, "Well, for what it's worth, you Maidens are all right. You make the best food around."

May asked, "But why are you closed?"

"We're just trying to test, before we can re-open," Tomo said, "We started a culinary branch, since we came here. So, we wanted to try it out."

Eri smiled, "Now that we have perfected it, it's time to re-open the store!"

They finished cooking and went outside. Miyazawa was confused.

"They didn't answer us," she said.

May asked, "Do you think they went to buy some posters?"

Miyazawa then looked at May's Maiden uniform and asked, "Uh… May… What's with the red and green frills?"

XXXXX

They left the diner, as the Maidens began to work on the reopening. Miyazawa asked May, "Say… Were they really Maidens for Hire?"

May then said, "Oh… I was just kidding… Maidens for Hire are simply household appliances. They aren't like people."

She then thought, "I can't risk seeing her all shocked and scared like that, again."

Yukino then saw a movie theater, which was huge.

"Hey, how about a movie? We have time, before we go home," Yukino asked.

May smiled, "I'm in!"

They went to the ticket booth.

"One adult, one stupid," Yukino said.

May snapped, "Hey!"

"Oh, sorry," she smiled.

"One adult, one child," she said to the cashier.

May nodded, "That's better."

They went inside. The Freds, however, were passing them, feeling uneasy.

"Wait until I get my hands on that May Maiden!" Fred groaned, as Freddie was driving, "How dare they give me such bad food! I ought to shut down their operations!"

He then cried, "But first… a quick ride to get my stomach pumped."

The car drove away, as the Maidens finished.

"Good! All ready for the grand re-re-opening!" Eri smiled.

The poster had May, in her uniform, with the sign saying: "Grand Re-Re-Opening of Maidens Diner – Come for the food, stay for our guaranteed service"

Tomo then said, "Let's call the others."

Eri smiled, "COOL!"

Tomo Maiden then whispered, "Whoever those two are, they're always welcome to Maiden Town."

Eventually, this city is run by Maidens and Butlers for Hire. But that particular story is told for another time… of course, without Miyazawa and May to appear.

Eri Maiden said, "I hope Miss Sawachika approves of the new Haruka Maidens for Hire, real soon. We'll need all the help."

XXXXX

Meanwhile, the three silhouettes appeared. They were in the shape of Jessie, James, and Meowth. Cassidy was shocked.

"How dare you show yourselves in my presence, you losers?" Cassidy shouted.

"How dare you bail on Botch?" Jessie shouted.

James bellowed, "Team Rocket never quits, even through pain!"

Meowth responded, "Yeah! And if you know better, you return to your duties as a member of Team Rocket!"

Cassidy cried, "You guys had it bad, but I don't! I'm sick and tired of being through this messed-up universe!"

James smirked, "I hope the twerps didn't heed your word."

(Jessie): "Listen, is that a quitter I hear?"

(James): "We've been through it all, and you have nothing to fear!"

(Jessie): On the wind…

(James): Past the stars…

(Meowth): Through the weird cities…

Cassidy shouted, "Alright, already! I don't need your changeable mottos!"

They stopped and said, "Sorry…"

Jessie then appeared from the silhouette and snapped, "You need to buck up! Truth to be told, you deserve to lose, now and then, but we know May, very well!"

James then appeared and said, "Listen to us. We don't mind quitting, but without Team Rocket, what would the boss say?"

Meowth then did a reenactment, with Team Rocket obtaining May's Pokémon:

"Imagine if you will, if we took her Pokémon! The boss will be smiling in glee, as he uses that Glaceon and Blaziken for some cold air and heat. He'll also use the Venusaur to ride on and enjoy the beautiful garden scent. With that enormous bloom of a flower on its back, he can feel serene. And after that, he'll say to us, "I believe that Meowth, Jessie, and James have proven of Team Rocket glory, despite their recent accomplishments of failure!" And then we make it big!"

Meowth added, "Just imagine the luxuries that await youse! It may not happen yet, but one day, you could do what we could never do: capture a Pikachu!"

Cassidy was moved in tears, as Jessie shouted, "So, go ahead and quit! Leave your partner, high and dry!"

James said, "OR… Make our boss proud! We're Team Rocket! And proud of it! Ignore the pain! We learn from our mistakes!"

They all chant, "It's our lifestyle, it's all for a while; WE RULE!"

Cassidy then said, "You're… You're right…"

She dropped to her knees and wailed, "I'm such an idiot! Oh, why did I leave Biff alone? I just couldn't take it anymore! I was arrested by mall security, I was blown up, I was nearly beaten up by a group of men, who were angry…"

She leaked tears like waterfalls, a la Pedro, "I am a member of Team Rocket! And since I hate you so much, you really made me change my mind!"

She ran off to find Butch. Team Rocket was in smiles.

"Well… she's doomed," Jessie sneered.

James asked, "I'm confused, Jessie. How come she wanted to bail, because of all that?"

"Who cares?" Jessie snapped, "The minute we leave this place, the sooner we get the twerp's Pikachu!"

Meowth then smiled, "We've been sitting pretty, since we have been earning money. What do you say we's go out and have lunch?"

They all cheered, "YAY! FOOD FOR THREE! NONE FOR TWERPS!"

They went to the Maiden Diner and continued to chat.

"Say, should we order some more of those-?" James asked.

Jessie griped, "AH! I'm sick of eating noodles! If I see a soba noodle again…"

Meowth smiled, "I hope they have fried chicken…"

XXXXX

Meanwhile, at an emergency room, Fred Sr. was in the room, waiting for the nurse. She appeared. She was wearing a pink nurse uniform and had black hair and an ample bust. She also had cat ears.

"Oh, crumbling cookie things… Don't tell me that you're a Maiden, too?" He whined.

The Maiden said, "Good day. I am Sakaki Model. I'll be your nurse today."

She looked at the chart and read his problem: a stomach ulcer.

"Oh, too bad. But, we will fix it…" she said.

She pulled out a syringe and filled it up with painkillers. She pointed the needle at him and he started to quiver.

"Wha-, what are you doing? Stay away!" Fred shrieked.

Did I forget to mention that the needle was huge?

"Now… This won't hurt a bit…" she said, with her eye twitching.

"AHHHHHHH!"

Back from the dead (One time only): Sakaki Model


At the diner, Team Rocket looked at the poster and was confused.

"Say, doesn't the Maiden for Hire on the poster look like one of the twerpettes?" James asked.

Jessie sighed, "Who knows? We're starving."

Meowth smirked, "Well, no time like the present! Like heck there'd be a twerpette robot like her."

They cheered, "YAY! LET US EAT!"

Wobbuffet cheered, "WOBBA!"

They stepped inside, as Tomo Maiden watched on, "Everyone eats for free… But we charge by the hour, starting tomorrow. If no money, we have no food to cook."

She spoke, holding a menu, breaking 4th wall, "Would you like a seat? We are here for your guaranteed service!"


Thus concludes this chapter… See you next time!


At Jonesy's house, he, Wyatt, and Jude were watching on.

Jude asked, "I hope they add us in the next chapter."

Jonesy said, "Oh, it's cool. This is like holding off, until we're ready."

Excel was frozen solid. She was motionless, as a few people walked past her in confusion. What could be wrong with this picture? Of course, she'll eventually move. This is Excel, of course. She's probably hungry.

Five hours later, at night, she started moving and singing, swinging her machete around.

"Ah-ri-ma! Ah-ri-ma! Ah-ri-ma!"

This… is completely nuts…


That answer is left untold, until later. We know why, but we're not ready to tell you, just yet.


At the Maidens for Hire compound, Eri Sawachika was shocked.

"WHAT? Maidens for Hire of May, as a promotion for this fan fiction?" She cried.

Yomi gave her approval, "I approve. But isn't she so small?"

Eri shouted, "No way… I don't want someone like her, cheering like she's Italian! Plus, red and green is gaudy! And doesn't the real Haruka train in-?"

Yomi glared, "Miss Sawachika… Do you question my order of Maidens for Hire?"

Eri shivered, "No…"

She smiled, "Good. Have 5,000 units of Maidens for Hire of May made, and PRONTO!"

Eri shouted, "But… Next thing you're going to say is that Maidens of Yukino Miyazawa are going to be processed!"

She winked, "We're working on it. We just needed to improve her bust size. Plus, her hair would also be very silky, long, and shiny. Maiden Moé Factors approve of neck-length to waist-length hair, more than short bobs."

Eri gulped, as Yomi left, all-smiles.

She growled, "I blame Miz-K…"

She shouted, shaking the camera, shouting at the 4th wall, "WHOEVER APPROVE OF THIS, YOU'VE GOT NO RIGHT! I'LL SUE, IF I HAVE TO! AHH!"


Please stand by…
