~Chapter 5~
AN: Yay, last chapter! *drums happily on the table to a random White Stripes song* Oke, not much to say here, so you read on, or face the wrath of DeLeo! *holds her cat up*
Near the end of the hour, Jhonen, Dalva and Nny were back in the main room. Upon reaching the room, Jhonen and Dalva were still bickering about weird quirks, wasted time and cliches. Nny rolled his eyes.
"...And if you start singing 'Ride the Cliche' one more time, Dalva, I'm gonna..."
Jhonen was interrupted by Devi standing up in front of an eerie [AN: Erie, hehehe] blue glow. "So, you guys about ready to go?" she asked the other three.
Nny was focused on the blue glowing thingy behind her. "Uh...wuzzat?" he asked.
Devi turned around to see what he meant. "Oh, after we had walked about fifty yards, Squee begged to go back outside. On the way back, we discovered a tv in here."
Dalva did the standard eyebrow-raise. "You mean to tell me that this place has a tv, but no lights? That's ridiculous!"
"Yeah. Almost as bad as the cemetery in the backyard," Jhonen said, smirking.
Dalva opened her mouth to protest, but was cut off by Devi. "A cemetery in the backyard? Jeez, how cliched can you get?"
"Okay, okay, it's cliched!" Dalva admitted. "But still..."
"But still...?" Jhonen inquired.
"Shut up," Dalva responded. [AN: Please note that I would never tell Jhonen to shut up unless I had a very, very good reason. I think you've probably already gathered that, in this fic, Dalva is more of an original character than me anyway.]
Nny made his way to where Squee and Gaz were sitting. "So, Squeegee, whatcha watching?" he asked.
Squee looked up at Nny, a bit scared. "Um... The...The Lion King XXI: Simba's Neutering Session." Gaz, of course, had her full attention on her GameSlave, not the movie. At about that time, Dib, Zim and Gir arrived.
"I can't believe I got all those pictures of that ghost thing!" Dib said in gloating mode.
"Oh, you saw a ghost, Dib?" Dalva asked.
Gir butted in. "It were a Noodle!"
Dalva grinned slightly eviiily. "Maybe we should give him to Anthony the Noodle-less Wonder, then." She began cracking up as everyone else gave her a collective 6.4 look.
After her laughter had quieted down a bit, Nny observed, "Hard to believe Dib saw a ghost in the house and we didn't even see one in the cemetery."
"What cemetery?" Dib asked.
"The one in the backyard," Dalva replied, rolling her eyes at what inevitably came next.
"In the backyard? Isn't that a bit..."
"Yes yes, cliched, I know," Dalva said, cutting Dib off. People in this fic have a knack for that.
Zim looked around impatiently in the eerie silence that followed. "So...are we gonna go now?"
Squee flicked off the tv [AN: Yes, he flicked it off :^D ] and rushed to the door. "Let's go! Let's go!" he insisted. And that they did.
~*~
When they got outside, Dib was still gloating over his photographical accomplishment. "That was so cool!" he exclaimed. Holding up the camera, he continued. "And all those pictures with this..." he trailed off, his eyes growing wide. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
"Dude, what happened?!" Dalva asked, concerned.
Dib choked down a couple sobs. "I had the lens cap on again."
The end!
