I'm so enamored of the exploding sheep idea that I decided to continue this despite my better judgement. Please review and don't be afraid to tell me I'm strange. I already knew that.
Death Annoying, Part 2
Vicious opened his eyes to stare a milky white sphere hanging in the middle of the sky. A few moments later the sensation of touch returned and he felt something poking him insistently in the arm. Growling angrily he sat up abruptly.
"Another one, strange," a feminine voice muttered and then he found himself being poked in the face by a stick.
"Will cut that out?" he yelled reaching for his sword, which wasn't there.
Baaaaaaaaah!
BOOM!
The girl protected her head with her hands a tremendous explosion rocked the clearing. Bits of burnt grass and dirt flew around them. He looked around and noticed the huge craters peppering the blue field. Roughly a hundred feet away a herd of warped sheep stood 'baah-ing' complacently.
"We have to get out of here now," the girl cried grabbing his hand frantically. He watched as one of the fluffy mammals chanced to glance up at the orb in the sky.
Baaaaaaaaah!
BOOM!
Another explosion of grass and dirt pelted them. The girl, having decided he wasn't worth getting exploded for, started running away. Realizing that being blown up would be rather unpleasant experience, he had already gone through that a couple of times with Spike, he followed her. Mentally he was thinking of various sadistic things to do to those sheep once they stopped detonating.

"You."
"You."
"So you know each other?" the girl asked with all her annoying perkiness. Her expressive violet eyes jumped from man to man as they faced each other.
Baaaaaaaaah!
BOOM!
Neither flinched as another shock wave rattled the small cottage around their heads. She noticed both their hands twitching suspiciously, as if they used to hold weapons of some sort. Pursing her lips thoughtfully she wondered why they were so tense.
"I'm Ari and I guess you've already met Mr. Spike, what's your name?" she said in a vain attempt to break the rather unsettling silence that, punctuated by the occasional exploding sheep, had fallen around them.
"Spike," Vicious hissed, gray eyes narrowing dangerously.
"Vicious," the evergreen haired man returned.
"Oh so your name is…" she trailed off as the two men simultaneously attacked each other with their bare hands. She watched them tussle for a few moments, knocking into furniture and other objects scattered randomly around the place.
She winced as Spike was tossed through the door that lead into her bedroom. Vicious soon followed, with Ari close at his heels to witness the destruction to her disorganized dwelling. It was only when they broke her four poster bed that she finally became pissed off.
Baaaaaaaaah!
BOOM!
"Alright you two barbarians, stop this or I will blow you away," she screamed over the exploding sheep outside. The two paused a moment to stare at the infuriated girl and the rather menacing rocket launcher she supported on one shoulder.
Their eyes widened to incredibly proportions and slowly they released each other.
"That's better, now boys if you want to fight you'll have to do it outside," she told them, once again overly cheerful and optimistic. Both nodded obediently and she tucked the launcher somewhere behind her.
"Now Mr. Spike and Mr. Vicious, since you're the only dead people here, besides the sheep, I think we should all try to get along," she gushed, clapping her hands excitedly. "I'll make us some soup and then we can sit down and have nice friendly chat."
"The sheep are people too?" Spike demanded pushing away from his former friend and now most tenacious enemy.
"Do you mean people people or people people?" she asked from the kitchen that doubled as a dinning room.
"There's a difference?"
"Of course," she replied brightly. "One explodes and the other doesn't without external means." Spike stood there scratching his head in confusion. For the life…er…death of him he couldn't figure out what she was trying to say.
"You're insane," Vicious stated bluntly. The girl smiled with blithe obliviousness at his insult.
Baaaaaaaaah!
BOOM!

Yeah, more exploding sheep goodness! Please review if you're brave enough and still somewhat mentally sound.
