"Chapter Two: The Aliens, The Witches and The Wardrobe A mega-mix up fic by Tellu and Quicksilver Mimette screamed as she and Eudial fell through the time warp. When they landed, they were nearly surrounded by a huge, glowing tree. "We're back! We must be in Tellu's room!" Mimette shrieked. Eudial, though, wasn't so ready to draw an optomistic conclusion. Whipping out her computer again, she started to take readings, her eyes widening when she saw the power readings the tree was throwing off. "Um, Mimete-" she began, but was interupted. A piercing female screech rocked the room. A- woman?- with long pink hair and green skin came into the room. She yelled: "GET AWAY FROM THE DOOM TREE NOW!!!!!" Eudial wisely started to withdraw, but we all know Mimette. Taking orders is not one of her favorite things to do. Mimette only stared back and yelled: "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU???" at the woman. The pink-haired woman bristled and said: "I'm An. This is the Maikaju Tree, and who are you?" Mimette said: "Uh, Hayama Mimette. This is Sakamoto Eudial." The pointed at Eudial. An turned and said: "So what are you two doing here?" Obviously claiming to be lost travelers wasn't going to work. Eudial thought over the possibilities quickly, then did an amazing thing. She went for the truth. "We seem to be falling through dimensions," she confessed. "Could you tell us exactly where we are?" The girl raised an eyebrow and smiled. She said: "Falling through dimensions, huh?" She poked her head out in the hall and yelled: "AIL!" A hunky alien guy came into the room. Mimette's eyes turned to hearts as she whispered: "Oh, boy. That's guy's a HUNK!" Eudial should have seen it coming. An attractive male came into the room, wearing a one-piece suit that showed off the smooth musculature of his form. He had long blue hair and pale green skin, and a crooked smile that twisted his lips as he looked at them with interest. "It doesn't even matter if they're human to you anymore, as long as their male, eh, Mimette?" she sighed softly. "Nope." Mimette whispered softly. She slowly crept forth to the hunky hunk guy, drooling the whole way. She said: "Hi, I'm Mimette, who're you?" He stared at her, fascinated by her sun-colored eyes. "I'm Ail," he said in a sexy voice, and Eudial got ready to drag Mimette away. The girl who they had met first was starting to fume. "Ail..." Mimette breathed, transfixed by his handsomeness. Eudial started frantically pulling on Mimette, noticing how incensed An was getting. Ignoring Eudial's prying fingers, Mimette gently rested her hand on Ail's chest. "I don't suppose you could help us get back home, could you?" she ask, looking up through her long eyelashes. It was at that precise moment that An's temper, which had been fraying, snapped. With a war cry, she threw herself at Mimette, screeching and clawing at her face with very long fingernails. Mimette screamed and acted helpless, hoping Ail or even Eudial would save her. Eudial just watched, thinking that Mimette was getting what she deserved. Jealous girlfriends had a wonderful way of making Eudial's day, especially when they were focused on Mimette and her rather pea-brained attempts at flirtation. Ail merely stood there, amused at the sight of the two girls fighting over him. His gaze wandered to Eudial and a grin lit up his handsome features. He put an arm around her shoulders and asked: "So, why haven't you been drooling over me, gorgeous?" Eudial gave him her patented glare. "Because I prefer to date within my own species, that's why," she said. "I hope your girlfriend can fight, because I think she's just about to push Mimette a little too far," Eudial finished, shrugging his arm off and taking a prudent step away. She had a very large definition of personal space, and this guy was infringing on it. Ann could not have picked a worse moment to have turned around and seen Ail put his arm around Eudial. Flames flashed in her eyes, as with a screech, she threw herself at Eudial, scratching the Red Witch's face as she had with Mimette. Eudial was trying to figure a graceful way out of the situation- namely, one that would keep her sking intact, and maybe Mimette's as well. She really didn't care what happened to the other witch, but she doubted the Professor would be particularly happy if the blonde mysteriously vanished. Ducking, she rolled out of the way of the flying girl, coming to her feet a few feet away. She yanked the bag open and pulled out her Fire Buster. Whirling, she aimed it. "Hold it, or the tree gets it!" Mimette breathed a sigh of relief as both Ail and An shrieked and tried shielding the tree from Eudial. Suddenly, An seemed to get an idea. Rushing over to Mimette, she held the blond and said: "Put down the blowtorch or your PARTNER gets it!" Eudial shrugged. "Like I care." An hadn't been expecting this answer, and her slender hands tightened on Mimette. "Nani?" she asked, unable to fathom the idea of such a betrayal. "You don't care?" "Isn't that what I just said?" Eudial replied impatiently. At that, Mimette shrieked: "WHAT? How could you possibly leave me to die??? Do you really hate me that much?" She looked at Eudial with genuine fear in her eyes. Eudial smiled coolly. "Like you wouldn't do the same if our positions were reversed. Hold it, pretty boy," she said to Ail, who had slowly been creeping up on her. "Even if you get me, I can still do a lot of damage before you bring me down." A tear slowly trickled down Mimette's cheek. She looked at Eudial and said: "I tried to be your friend, but you wouldn't let me. You just pounded the work into me. Why did you always hate me so much?" Her eyes teared over and she started crying as An held her. "Because you're a ditz, an idiot, a backstabber..." Eudial began, ticking off points with her free hand. Ail looked at An. "Do we really want to listen to this?" he asked as Eudial continued listing Mimette's many percieved faults. "...an incompetent, a no-style fangirl, crazy..." she went on, starting to get into the spirit of things. Mimette was crying by this point. She wailed: "All I wanted was to be your friend... And you all hated me..." As she bent over to apparently cry, she flipped An over her body in a fancy judo move. Eudial blinked once. "Practising much?" she asked dryly. "C'mon, and let's get the hell out of here." Ail looked at them as Mimette dashed to Eudial's side. "After all she saaid you're just going to follow her?" he asked incredilously as An pulled herself to her feet, looking ready to rip out Mimette's slender throat. Mimette shrugged. "Family is family, no matter how you slice it." She removed her Gem Buster from Places Undisclosed (TM) and yelled: "Geeeeeem Bustaaaaah!" She aimed the attack at the floor, stirring up a cloud of dust and offering an opportunity for them to flee. Mimette yelled: "Come on, Eudial! Like you said, let's get out of here!" Mimette grabbed onto Eudial's wrist and started pulling the Red Witch away from the room. Eudial held onto her Fire Buster with one hand and worked the zip to the stupid bag with the other. The thing was such a pain that she was half tempted to get rid of it, but knew that doing so would be a BAD IDEA. "Um, Mimette, where are we going?" she asked as the blonde raced for the door that seemed to be floating in the middle of nothingness. "Did you ever stop to think that that could be a trap?" Mimette screeched on the brakes just as they flew through the door. She turned to Eudial and said: "We don't have time!" She started running faster through the narrow passageways with Ail and An in hot pursuit. "Like this isn't going to attrack some unwanted attention!" Eudial yelped as they raced down the fire escape. "Two rather oddly dressed women carrying indentifyable items chased by aliens! Real normal!" "If I'm right, this is Juuban," Mimette said as they paused outside a familiar looking bakery. "This is positively run-of-the-mill!" Mimette retorted. Mimette slowed down to a slow jog and let go of Eudial's wrist. She slowed and entered the bakery, tuking the Gem Buster back into Places Undisclosed (TM). A group of girls were giggling and talking amongst themselves, but no one else was in there. Mimette whispered to Eudial: "They won't dare attack us right here and now. Act natural." Mimette smiled sweetly to the boy behind the counter and said: "A dozen danishes, please." "Um, a cup of coffee," Eudial said, trying to act like she was used to wandering around town in her witch's get up. "Do you really need a dozen?" she asked Mimette. Mimette only smiled and stuffed an apple danish in her mouth, saying: "Sugar be energy!" as she fairly bounced to a window seat. Outside, a man recognized her and entered. He whispered to Mimette and Eudial: "Hey, it's me. An's really jealous and she's looking for you two. Watch out!" "And you're not?" Eudial asked cautically. "I just threatened to turn your tree into a cinder!" she finished, her voice rising in ire. "Shh!" he hushed her. "I'm sure it was all a misunderstanding." Mimette's eyes had turned into hearts again as she whispered: "Yeah..." She gently took Ail's hand and smiled at him. Ail was surprised, but smiled back at her, mesmerized by her beauty. Eudial groaned and rested her head in her hands as a girl stomped in, one who had a very distinct resemmblence to Ail. "Niisan!" she exclaimed. "Just what do you think you're doing?" Ail looked past Mimette and mumbled: "Oh, shiimata." He quickly lept out of the booth and started talking with the girl. She was irate. Mimette whispered to Eudial: "Das eist ein weirdo, lunkhead, let's get out of here." Eudial nodded and the two of them began to creep out the back door. "They're getting away!" the girl screamed. The Witches picked up their pace, Mimette throwing her danish back towards the girl, trying to slow down the pursuit. "What a waste of good food," she moaned. Ann and Ail began running after them in hot pursuit, Ann running a little faster than Ail. Eudial and Mimette started screaming as they ran down the streeets of Tokyo. Mimette suddenly screeched on the brakes and yelled: "TAXI!!!!!" As a cab stopped, Mimette pulled Eudial inside. Mimette quickly gave an address to the driver. She whispered to Eudial: "It's the perfect thing. We just go to Tomoe's mansion and we explain to him what happened and-" Mimette's tirade was cut short by a smack upside the head, courtesy of Eudial. Mimette grabbed her head and said: "OW!! Why'd you do that?" Eudial snapped: "Are you that dense??? We're still back in 1992, you dolt! The Witches didn't even meet Tomoe until 1994. He doesn't know who we are!" Mimette whispered: "Driver, let us out here." The cabbie screeched to a stop and held out his hand for a tip. Mimette grudgingly stuffed a few bills in his hand and exited the cab after Eudial. They were in a totally different section of Tokyo, one she'd never been in before. She asked: "Eudial, where are we?" Eudial flushed as she glanced at her surroundings. "Where else? All villains seem to end up here at one point in their careers- Tokyo Towers," she said, and started to walk towards an empty bench. "You keep an eye out for those psychos while I'll try to figure out a way to get home- and not by taxi," she snapped at Mimette. Mimette nodded miserably and stuffed another danish in her mouth. After ten danishes and forty-five minutes, Mimette was feeling thoroughly bloated, bored and miserable. Neither Ail nor Ann had shown up, and Mimette was tiring of being the lookout. She walked over to Eudial and said: "How much more research do you have to do?" "A lot," she sighed, rubbing her temples, feeling the beginning of a migraine. "Even if we find what is causing us to fall through time, that's no gaurantee that we can get home. Got, I wish Viluy was here- this is more along her line." Mimette sighed at the mention of the White Witch. She said: "I know. Even Tellu would be a comfort at this point." She sighed and said: 'Maybe we should just look for one of those weird warp holes we fell in last time and hope for the best." "Not a bad idea, but we have no clue where'd we wind up," Eudial admitted, hitting a button on her computer that extended an antanae. "Luckily I conned Viluy into building this energy sensor into the thing. If I calibrate it to find spatial distortions...." she rambled on. "There they are!" a feminine voice called, and it was Ann, once again dressed in her alien guise. "This time you're not getting away from me!" Mimette stared at Eudial with a blank expression, until Ann came around the corner. She stared at Ann for a few seconds, before ripping the Gem Buster out and yelling: "GEEEEEM BUSTAHHHH!!!!" Her attack flew past Ann and slammed into Tokyo Tower, causing the building to collapse and buckle, demolished. As Ail, Ann and Eudial winced, Mimette only shrugged and said: "Well, it gets rebuilt every other week, anyway." She grabbed Eudial's wrist and started running, throwing back random Gem Buster attacks. She saw the warp hole and asked: "Well, do we risk it, or do we wait for them to destroy us?" Eudial hadn't heard her. "Do you realize that I have YET to flame anything, while you have thrown an attack at Zoicite, the most tempermental of the Generals, threatened an alien, and destroyed Tokyo Tower to boot?" "Yeah, yeah!" Mimette said. "C'mon!!" She made a grabbed for Eudial's wrist and missed, winding up face to face with Ann. "This is not good," she said. "Get in the damn hole!" "Is she always that excitable?" Ail asked. "You have no idea," Eudial answered. Mimette only blew a kiss to Ail, smacked Ann over the head with the Gem Buster, successfully grabbed Eudial's wrist this time, and jumped in the hole, dragging the Red Witch behind her. Eudial hissed and spat the entire way as, once again, they fell through time. Ail gently 'caught' Mimette's kiss and planted it to his lips. Ann rubbed her head where Mimette's attack had hit, smacked Ail, and dragged him back to their apartment, where- but then, that's a tale for another time. Chapter 3 coming soon! |
