*Lori stands in the Lair by the couch shielding her eyes while the gusting wind and bright light dies down and figures emerge from the portal*
Lori: It worked!
*Tommy appears first, with Roxie over his shoulder. Next Merton comes out colliding into Tommy with the pile of floating bodies dropping to the ground*
Tommy:*trips and falls on his face, with Merton falling right behind him onto his legs* Ow..
Merton: Sorry...heh heh.. this must not look right..
Lori: Nope.. not at all..
Merton: I'll be getting up then *pulls himself up and susts himself off*
Tommy:*turns over and pulls himself up, wincing a little bit because of his leg* Oh man... I can't believe my leg still hurts..
Merton: Don't worrry about it, it's bound to heal...I think.
Lori: So now what?
Tommy: What do you mean "now what"?
Lori: Well we have to wake these muses up and get them going, don't we?
Merton: Yeah.. but can we keep them? Just for a little bit?
Lori:*glares at Merton*
Merton: Geez.. so-rry..
Tommy: Isn't there some sort of awakening spell?
Merton: Yea, duh.. Dorum calah me dorum-
Tommy: Merton! Not the spell to wake the dead! Wake the unconscious!
Merton: Oh yea.. if we just consult superspells.org *walks over to the desk, sits down at the computer, and starts typing away* Found it..sit them up and say "sulfre genim" 99% chance of it working.
Tommy: Let's try it then..*sits up Roxie and holds her in his arms* "Sulfre genim"
Roxie:*lays still, then her eyes flutter open as she blinks a few times. Her pupils contract to the light in the room, opposed to the darkness of her eyelids* Did I miss something?
Tommy:*sueezes her in to a tight hug* You're awake!
Roxie: Of course I am. Thanks to you..*starts to kiss Tommy*
Merton: D'aw come on..does he ever stop?
Lori: I don't think so.. come help me wake the other muses up...
Merton: Why do we have to do the dirty work?
Lori: Just quit complaining and help me!
*Merton and Lori go from muse to muse, until everyone of them is awake*
Lori: Okay, you have to wake me up now. See you in a few..*Lori disappears*
Merton:*kneels beside Lori's body* "Sulfre genim!"
Lori:*opens her eyes and blinks, then stands herself up* This whole body thing feels weird...
Martica: *puzzled by Lori's statement* I do not understand you...
Lori: Well, I dunno how, but I can kinda leave my body when I concentrate on it.
Faith: *eyes light up* That is extraordinary! Do you know what this means?
Lori: *shakes head* No..
Alayna: You can astral project!
Merton: I've heard of that before...people usually go through out of body experiences first...
Lori: I think I've had dreams like that..oh my god, this is so cool! I have a super-power! Just like Tommy!
Merton: Not really just like Tommy, considering he's a lycanthropic beast that-
Tommy: Oh please, Merton, continue on what a monster I am. *rolls eyes*
Merton: Sorry...but wait, if Lori has a super-power, what do I have?
Serene: A beautiful smile?
Roxie: *sighs* Show us what you can do.
*everyone stares intently at him*
Merton: I can't go if everyone's watching me! *flails out arms and a pillow goes flying*
*everyone gasps, then claps half heartily*
Merton:*takes a bow* See? Told you I had a super-power...
Tommy: That kinda reminds me of Terri..oh my gosh, you're teleconfetti!
Verite: I think Tommy means telekinetic..it's where you can-
Merton: I know, I know, move objects with your mind.
Verite: You are a very smart young man, I must say.
Merton: Yeah..well anyone can look smart standing next to Tom-
Tommy:*glares at Merton*
Merton: Tomorrow! Standing next to..tomorrow?
Lori: *picks up the mirror from the floor* So what are you gonna do with the mirror? Burn it? Break it? Put it on display?
Martica: *gently takes it from Lori's hands* I think we shall return it to the rightful owner...
Alayna: She will be so glad to hear from us!
Verite: And just think how we will be rewarded!
*The muses start talking excitedly to each other, then quiet down and have serious looks on their faces*
Faith: Thank you very much for saving us...we will never be able to express our gratitude to you.
Tommy: It's okay..we do this kinda stuff all the time...
Merton: But you know...you could bestow some ancient knowledge into us if you wanted..
Lori: Merton, don't be greedy..
Merton:*pouts* Aww...
Alayna: I think we should leave, now, the sooner we get back, the better.
*Everyone hugs and shakes hands and what not*
Serene:*while hugging Merton* I'll miss you...
Merton:*giggles high pitched, just like always*
Lori:*stops shaking hands with Martica and sends Serene a dirty look*
Serene: *pulls out of the hug and sighs in disappointment*
Roxie:*pulls Tommy into a warm embrace and puts her head on his shoulder* I'm going to miss you..
Tommy:*plays with a piece of her long sunshine hair* Me too..
Roxie: I wouldn't leave..but I have to, you understand don't you?
Tommy: Yeah.. I do..it's just so hard to say good-bye..
Roxie: I know..but maybe it doesn't have to be good-bye forever...
Tommy: Maybe..*cups his hand on her cheek and pulls his into a short, but sweet kiss*
Roxie:*lets go of Tommy, walks backward, having their fingertips touching, then joins the other five women waiting for her* Good-bye Tommy, thank you. Good-bye Merton, Lori, for all of your help.
Merton: It was no problem *slips his arm around Lori*
Lori: Have a safe trip!
Tommy:*looking at his shoes and mumbles* 'Bye
*One by one, the muses get surrounded in a bright light, then disappear*
Tommy:*looks up just in time to see Roxie smiling at him, then she disappears*
~~Sorry that last part was cheesy, had to squeeze it in somewhere. But, to your enjoyment, there's one more chapter coming! Then I'm finito! Das it! Splitsville! No more love!~~
Lori: It worked!
