This chapter is SO not as good as the last one. One reason is we weren't able to finish it where we wanted to, and another is..uh..i dunno. Heh. Btw, our reputation at school is hehehehehe, not good with the teachers. We're totally not our princapal's favorite students lol! Nor our Science teacher's. ;)
Sorry about this chapter again but happy reading!
Ch. 6 Different Reality
Billie:
So we walked, and walked, and walked, and then we walked some more. I was getting bored just walking like that. Elli and I usually talk non-stop but I think Great Baldy and Evil Long Hair made us silent. With a sigh I realized I couldn't do this anymore.
"Are we there yet?" I asked in a whiny voice. I was very aware of Elli's eyes getting as big as saucers when I said it.
Great Badly turned a little and grunted. Great Baldy speaka nosa Engolish no more.
"How! Great Badly, I come in peace. Are. We. There. Yet?" I said slowly.
Great Bald One turned again and glared. I had a feeling that was a signal of hostilatly.
"Fine, I see how you're gonna be. You people really have to learn how to have some dag-gum fun around this joint." I said putting my hands on my hips as I walked.
"Billie, it's 2:30 in the morning, I don't think they're up to having a party." Elli whispered to me.
"Old foggies." I told her.
We continued to walk in silence and I sighed again.
"Are we there yet?" Maybe I'd take up what that kid did in The Mummy Returns. Remember when he really annoys that guy on the train. Oo, that sounds like a good idea!
"Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we-" Suddenly Great Baldy spun around and Elli jumped infront of me.
"I have to go to the bathroom!" She exclaimed. Great Baldy's eyes were nearly baldging out of his head! I needed a tennis racket in case they shot out. Play ball! …er Play EYE!
"Right now?!" Great Baldy asked.
"You're eye is kinda twitchin' there O' Great Baldy." I told him from behind Elli. He took a step towards me and I backed up using Elli as a shield.
"Maybe you should consider ang-anger management classes. I heard they're helpful. Have you been stressed out lately?"
"Yes, right now!" Elli told him.
Great Baldy looked like he was going to explode any second. Anyone have an unbrella?
"There, go in there." Evil Long Hair suddenly said, giving Elli a little push towards a store. Elli grabbed my wrist jerking me along while Evil Long Hair, Great Baldy, and Braided One (LOL) stayed on the side walk with Dances with Shamoo, aka Fishy.
After Elli asked where the 'fresher was we went inside and Elli jammed the door.
"Elli, did Dances with Shamoo bite you? Do we need a rabies shot?" I asked seeing how her eyes were moving side to side really fast as she didn't look at anything. She did that often when we were in Physical science back in 9th grade. Equations. She was working out an equation. Of what?
"I GOT IT!" She shouted looking at me. I yelped when she grabbed me by the shoulders and shook me.
"It's so simple!"
"Elli! You're about to dislocate my shoulder! Let go!" I said wiggling free of her death grip.
"Sorry. Look, remember in Physical Science when we read that thing about that guy trying to make a time travel machine thing?"
I thought back. "No."
Elli sighed and shook her head. "Alright. His theory was that in order to change the way light went, and at what speed, you had to bend it. Like with a mirror, right? Well then he changed the formula and said that in order to break time, you had to bend it first."
"I'm not following here." I said, but I had lost her into that mind of hers. She was muttering things, numbers, and crap. I just kinda stood there waiting.
"Alright, I got it now." She said. Suddenly she froze looking at me as I scratched my head.
"What? Do I have something in my hair?" I asked as her eyes got that really evil look to them.
"I didn't know you had Your Watch On." She said lowly. I looked at my wrist.
"Oh yeah, I had it on since I woke up with evil alien p-"
Suddenly she grabbed my wrist and undid the wrist band and looked at the watch.
"Elli, what are you doing? You've turned into mad scientist here." I told her peering over her shoulder at my watch.
"Look, it's still working." She said watching the thin hand tick away with every second.
"Yeah, that is the point of a watch." I told her. She then hit the side of it on a wall. The back piece popped off.
"Hey! Do you know how much that watch costs?!"
"I gave it to you idiot, for the party." She reminded.
"Oh yeah." I said realizing.
She took out the small battery inside and turned it over. That's when she scared me. She just started laughing. I was waiting for her to say, 'It's A-LIVE! It's A-LIVE!'. Instead I got,
"IT LIVES!" Nearly time to start calling the white jacket out.
"Look! It's still ticking!"
Sure enough it was. Odd.
"How can it?" I asked confused.
"Come on, I'll explain as we go back." She said leading me out of the fresher.
"The way I'm thinking this works is that though we're actually in a different reality, we're still in ours too. It's lik-" Suddenly someone ran past us snatching the watch out Elli's grasp.
"HEY!" We both shouted after it.
"You sorry little-!" Elli yelled running after it.
"Elli! It's just a watch!" I shouted running after her.
"It's our ticket home!" She called back.
"YOU SORRY LITTLE-!" I yelled running after the little thief.
~~~~~~~~~
"Does it always take this long?" Qui-Gon asked glancing inside the store.
"How would I know? I'm not an insane little girl like they are." Mace said with a smirk.
"You really don't like those two do you?" Qui-Gon asked with a chuckle.
"They're driving me up the wall! I'm going to kill that blonde before dawn!" Mace exclaimed. Obi-Wan laughed a little.
"I think she's funny." He said with a smile.
"Just wait until she turns her tactics on you braid boy." Mace replied. "I never thought two people could get into more messes than this."
Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan glanced at eachother.
"Wait, I take that back. I never thought two girls their age could get into that much trouble." Mace said looking at the two. His eyes went to Dances with Shamoo.
"Is he showing any sign of coming out of it?"
"Not yet. I think she was a little angry with him." Obi-Wan said looking at it. They had put him down against a wall and tied him to a water pipe coming out of the ground incase he woke up too quickly.
They were silent a moment and Obi-Wan sat down near the wall.
"Well good Force, did they get lost in there?" Qui-Gon asked looking through the glass door again.
"I wouldn't be surprised." Mace told him taking a seat next to Obi-Wan.
"YOU SORRY LITTLE-"
The three looked inside again.
"Not again!" Mace said but was standing anyway with Obi-Wan.
Inside boxes flew every which way in the path of distruction. A small creature known as a Riptor ran out the door….close behind him exploded the red head, then the blonde. Qui-Gon snatched the one he could reach as he got to the door, which was the blonde.
"Hey! Let go Evil Long Hair!" She shouted as they swung around to slow the momentum.
"Relax! What are you doing?" Qui-Gon told her.
"That little sonny took my watch!..Er, Elli's watch!"
"It's just a watch." Obi-Wan told her.
"It's our way home." Blonde told them.
Mace suddenly took off after the Riptor and the redhead. "Get back here!" He yelled.
"Stay here with Obi-Wan." Qui-Gon ordered the blonde looking directly at her.
"But-"
"Stay here!" He demanded.
"Sheesh, alright." Blonde said blowing a strand of hair out of her face. Qui-Gon looked at Obi-Wan then ran after the other Master.
Billie:
I looked at Braided One for a moment and he eyed me.
"Can't stay." I told him turning to run. Run, Run, Run, Run, R-Why wasn't I going anywhere? Looking down I realized I was hanging in the air.
"AHHH! Put me down!" I ordered.
"Will you run?"
"Probably." I said truthfully.
"Can't put you down then." Braided One said….maybe I should start calling him Evil Braided One….
"Come on, people are looking at me funny." I said crossing my arms.
"That's not normal?" EVIL Braided One asked.
I glared.
Elli:
"Oops, sorry. Pardon me. Excuse me." I tried to keep to my polite ways but by now I found it difficult as the little punk was distancing at a fast rate.
"GET OUT OF MY WAY DAMNIT!" I shouted. A clear path was made for me now.
"Thank you." I said running again.
Where was Billie at when I needed her?! I couldn't see her anywhere around me.
"ELLI! LOOK OUT!" It was Her scream, I knew it.
Suddenly I collided with something. Blinking I realized that there was a boot in my face.
"Are you ok?" I heard Obi-Wan ask.
"What in the hell…?" I asked moving my head.
"I told you to put me down!" Billie said sitting up. The boot in my face moved. I realized I had ran into her. That little punk just ran us in a circle!
"Come on." I said jumping up and bringing Billie with me, ignoring the shout from Obi-Wan to stay there, and something about a concussion but we kept running.
~~~~~~~~
"They went that way!" Obi-Wan pointed as Mace ran towards him, then Qui-Gon.
"They?" Qui-Gon asked.
"Long story." Obi-Wan said as his Master passed. He wanted to go with and help but he knew he had to stay with Dances with Shamoo.
"Come on, thrid wheel's helpful. He's tied." Qui-Gon told him motioning for him to follow.
~~~~~~~
Elli:
"I'm going to kill this thing when we catch it!" Billie yelled.
"Let's just catch it first!" I yelled back.
Suddenly the little bugger met up with some of his buddies at a corner, they all looked exactly alike and split up.
"Which one is he?!" Billie asked as we slowed at the corner.
"I don't know. Go with those two, I'll go with these two." I told her and we split directions.
"What about that one?!" Billie asked as another split.
"Uh…" I looked behind us. "One of them will get him!" I shouted as we split up.
~~~~~~~
"Now where are they going?!" Mace flustered.
"Keep on blondey over there!" Qui-Gon yelled back. ( *elli hides from billie again!* HAHAHAHA!)
"I Hate You!" Mace yelled, but followed Blonde anyway.
"Go with the red head Obi-Wan, I'll go for this one!" Qui-Gon ordered. Obi-Wan nodded and ran after the red head.
Elli:
Lord, I hope they don't split up again or something. I thought. Running into an open market I saw one of them.
"GOT YA!" I cried launching myself on it. Flying through the air I decided, maybe I should have waited till I had him to say that instead of warning him first. He turned to see me flying at him and moved to the side. I crashed into a fruit stand, and he took off again!
Spitting some sort of fruit out of my mouth I was suddenly hoisted up again.
"Are you alright?" I blinked wondering why George Lucas never mentioned that Obi-Wan had a twin, cause I was looking at two Kenobis at the moment.
"Dandy." I said wavering as I wipped pink fruit off my face.
"There he is! Come on." Obi-Wan said spotting the fricker again. I followed still spitting seeds out of my mouth.
Billie:
Luckily my mice didn't split up as I followed them into an abandoned building. Hope I wasn't in for a trap or something. I ran in and realized I was now alone…hmmm…They came in here… I jogged up the stairs just to the right of the door but spun around hearing someone else come in. Giving my fierce battle cry, more like the Angry Beavers' scream again, I leapt off the stairs onto the intruder's back.
"Say UNCLE! Say UNCLE!" I shouted as he spun around in circles trying to get me off and I put on the moves that Elli's brother had taught me about subdution. Pretty much just pushing back on his forehead making their head go back and making it harder for them to know what they're doing.
Whew, I thought I was on the bronco again. We spun around and hit walls, thrashed and swerved. Suddenly over my fierce Angry Beavers' Battle Cry I realized what my prey was yelling….
"BLONDE! GET OFF OF ME YOU INSANE NIT-WIT!!!"
Uh-Oh, Great Baldy didn't sound happy.
"Oh, sorry!" I said dropping off of his back. He turned and looked at me breathing heavy and had that look of murder in his eyes. I realized we were in an empty warehouse..no one would witness the murder…
"Sorry there Great Baldy." I said smoothing his tunic. "Got a smidgen carried away." I told him. He growled and moved towards me. Suddenly something was coming down the stairs behind him.
"AHHHH!!! KILL IT!" I yelled. It looked like a big bug!
"KILL IT!" I shouted hiding behind him. That funny snap-hiss erupted again and a 'squash' and a 'splat'. Opening one eye, then the other I peered out from behind Great Baldy at the slop that he had sliced and diced.
"Ewww…" I murmured. Great Baldy glared and me and I smiled giving a little wave.
"We're leaving, NOW." He told me as I realized no watch was near the slop.
"No objections, promise." I said putting my hands up in surrender.
He turned and started walking out.
"Hey, I think I spraned my ankle when I jumped off the stairs to attack you, how bout a piggy back ride?" I asked him. He turned and glared.
"Just kidding!" I told him jogging to catch up.
Elli:
We were now, I concluded, running up something like a fire escape stairway or something similar to it. The punk was clambering up it above us by about 2 flights. Obi-Wan glanced back at me as it ran out onto a balcany.
"Any problems with heights?" He called back.
"Nine." I replied in German. Don't ask, it just came out. We reached the balcany but punky was no where to be seen. Breathing heavy I looked around for him.
"Where'd he go?" I asked as Obi-Wan too looked around.
"I don't kn- There!" He said seeing it claiming onto another balcany. Kenobi took off after it. I kinda stood there a moment then realized I had to run after it too. Heh, durr.
Now, like I said, I had no problems with heights what-so-ever, base jumping and repelling took all that away, but at the moment the wind was picking up and speeders weren't making all the much room for the building. Obi-Wan easily jumped onto the railing and onto the next balcany. My stomach turned but I forced my feet to move, jump, and jump again.
AHH! I'm alive!!!
That wasn't hard. Just keep my eyes closed and I'm good. I closed my eyes for the next jump and the one after that but on the third one I touched something metal…with my hands! I wasn't supposed to land on my hands now was I? By reflex my hands grasped whatever I had touched. Opening my eyes I looked up and realized that I was dangling from a frickin' chain off of a speeder above us!
It swung off the side of the building back into traffic at the shift in weight.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed hanging onto the chain. The speeder swung me around the next balcany towards the punk. It was a pick up line!
"DON'T LET GO!!" Obi-Wan yelled at me as I passed another balcany.
"WHAT DID YOU THINK I WAS GOING TO DO?!!!!" I yelled back. The engine was loud above me as we caught up to the punk. He jumped off his balcany and swung onto the chain below me. Not good. I shook the chain to try and get him off but all I did was sacre myself. I hate heights now!!!
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I cried as we moved away from the building, away from Obi-Wan, away from help. The chain started wiggling and I looked down. Punky was climbing up! I hadn't had my rabies shot! Fear shooting through me I started climbing up too.
Billie:
As Great Baldy and I rounded the corner we saw another one of those things.
"Look!" I told him pointing about to run but Great Baldy held me back.
"Absolutely not!" He said.
"But he'll get away! I wanna go home!" I cried watching it run from hearing my voice.
"He's not going anywhere." Great Baldy said nodding towards Qui-Gon crouched next to the corner of a building. Suddenly as the creep was about to by pass him Qui-Gon, er, Evil Long Hair, jumped out and threw his arm right into Creepish Punk's throat in a VERY painful and connecting clothes-line maneuver.
"Ouch!" I said watching Creepish Punk flip backwards, and land face first.
As we reached him Evil Long Hair held out the silver watch. "Is this what all the fuss is about?"
"Yes!" I said snatching it away and looking at it. Still ticking!
"Where's Elli?"
Great Baldy and Evil Long Hair looked at eachother.
// Padawan?//
// Small problem Master. //
Tbc…
Sorry about ending it here, but time isn't forgiving. Classes are classes, even on Saturdays. Hope you enjoyed, and we know that this one was even near as funny as the one before but *Shrugs* it just came out that way. Next one should be better. *Waves a hand infront of everyone 'Think Yoda…Think Cha-Cha Slide…'* Mwhahahahaha!
Review as always!!!! Update Pending!
Till Later,
