Amelia: Billy Bob Joe Jim is really a nice guy.

Filia: Why me?

Amelia: Don't worry. They're nice for bad guys!

Filia: Talk about an oxymoron.

Amelia: A what moron?

Filia: An oxymoron.

While Filia explains about oxymorons, well look over at our heroes. They have gotten off the chair lift and now the two males become worried about the one female left in our group…

Lina: Look, I know you both worried about my safety, but can't I have some privacy?

Gourry: But, they might get you!

Lina: They wont get me Gourry. I'll be fine!

Zel: As long as we don't argue, I think she'll be fine.

Lina: Yea. So, would you both get out of MY snow-cave?

Xelloss: *appears* Yes, leave the lady alone.

Gourry: No way! You're not getting her too!

Xelloss: Oh, I'm hurt. You think I'm kidnapping the members of our little group?

Zel: Yes!

Xelloss: Lina?

Lina: Well, right now, it certainly seems that way…

Xelloss: I swear I didn't do it!

Zel: We already know you don't kidnap them. We just think you distract us so they can be kidnapped.

Xelloss: Is this true Lina?

Lina: I'm sorry Xelloss.

Xelloss looks away hurt.

Xelloss: I don't know how I'll prove it to you, but I will. I didn't have any part in this. *disappears*

Lina: Wait, Xelloss! Urrr, he always does this.

Zel: Well, goodnight Lina. I'll make sure Gourry doesn't fall asleep on his shift.

Lina: What are we going to do about my shift?

Gourry: Lina, you don't have a shift tonight.

Lina: What? Why not?

Zelgadiss: Think about it Lina.

Lina: Oh, well, good night guys.

Gourry and Zel: Goodnight Lina.

Zel: I'll take first watch.

Gourry: No, I will.

Zel: Go get some sleep Gourry. I'll take first watch.

Gourry: The only way I'll be sure I won't fall asleep, is if I take first watch.

Zel: Listen Gourry. I have a lot to think about…

Lina: Let go of me you creep!

The creep grabs Lina, sticks a piece of tape over her mouth, and runs off caring her over his shoulder.

Zel: Lina! *Runs after the man*

Gourry: Linaaaaaaaa! *Runs after the man*

Zel: Shit! How could I have let this happen? LINA!!!

Gourry: LINA! LINA COME BACK!

Back at the bad guy's place awhile later…

Lina: You dirty mean evil sneak!

Billy: What?!

Lina: Why are you kidnapping us?

Bob: Well…

Lina: Well?

Joe: Well…

Lina: Well?

Jim: Well…

Lina: Well?

This went on for a while. First Lina asked, then Filia, then Amelia. The answer was always…

Billy Bob Joe Jim: Well…

Lina: Give me an answer or I'll blow you all to Kingdom Come!

Amelia: Kingdom Come? Where's that?

Sweat drop. Lets see how the guys are doing.

Gourry: Zel, where'd Lina go?

Zel: *sweat drop* Gourry, she was kidnapped.

Gourry: Oh yea! I remember now!

Zel: That's great Gourry.

Xelloss: *Appears* Hello!

Zel grabs him out of the air and holds his face up to his own.

Zel: WHERE IN THE NINE HELLS DID YOU TAKE LINA?

Xelloss: Calm down! I didn't take her anywhere.

Zel: I know you had something to do with this, and I'm going to prove it.

Xelloss: Did you ever stop to consider coincidence?

Zel: Yea, right. And I'm human. Stop lying to us and tell us where she is.

Xelloss: I never lie.

Gourry: Really?

Xelloss: I tell half-truths, twist the truth, but never out right lie. Now could you let go of me?

Zel: *complies* You had something to do with this.

Xelloss: Not knowingly.

Gourry: Sure, blame it on ignorance.

Xelloss: The quickest way to the castle is over the hill.

Zel: Are we supposed to believe you?

Xelloss: You can do what you want. *leaves*

Gourry: Why don't we do what he says?

Zel: You really think we can trust him?

Gourry: Lina does.

They go over the hill. Sure enough, it was faster. At the bottom…

Shipheel: Gourry dear! I'm so glad I made it in time!

In Shipheel vision Gourry was surrounded by roses, with a pastel background, you get the picture.

Zel: How did you get here so fast Shipheel?

Shipheel: Mr. Xelloss helped me. Where are all the others?

Gourry: They've been kidnapped.

An evil chibi of Shipheel came out, saying things that made her blush. She quickly tucked the chibi away where she held all her dear Gourry chibis.

Shipheel: Kidnapped? How terrible!

Gourry: Yea! We have to go find them and save them!

Shipheel: So, where are you headed?

Zel: To that big castle up there.

Shipheel: To that big castle?

She points at a huge castle with rainbows, and nice flower gardens.

Zel: No, to that castle.

He points at a large castle lighting shoots out of one of the many clouds surrounding the creepy castle. The trees surrounding it are all dead, and a large gate closes off the road leading to the many front steeps.

Gourry: That castle? It's so creepy!

Shipheel: But, I thought…

Zel: Which one of the castles do you think the bad guys would rather hide out in?

Meanwhile…

Lina: I want food!

Billy: Well, you're going to have to wait for Billy Bob Joe Jims shift.

Lina: Well, how long will that take?

Billy: Well, Bobs, Joes, and Jims shifts come before his.

Lina: I'm hungry now!

Billy: Well you'll just have to wait.

Lina: You can't just give me a little snack?

Billy: No.

Amelia: Come to think of it, I'm hungry too.

Billy: Well, give it up. You're not getting any food from me.

Filia: Exactly how long do each of these shifts take?

Billy: Hour and a half.

Lina: I can't wait that long!

Billy: You have to.

Amelia: Billy! You are the most inconsiderate person that I have ever meat.

Lina: Stand back Amelia. Darkness beyond twilight, crimson from blood that flows…

Filia: No! Miss Lina don't!

Lina: Buried in the stream of time is where your power grows…

Amelia: Miss Lina, please don't!

They grab her arms, preventing her from casting the spell, and going any further.

Lina: Hey! What's the big idea?

Amelia: Miss Lina, you can't cast spells in here!

Lina: And why not?

Filia: Any spell you use will turn back on you!

Bob: My shift.

Billy: Thank gods!

Lina: Hey Bob?

Bob: Yea?

Lina: Can we have some food?

Bob: Here, have a mint.

Amelia: A mint?

Bob: You can all have one mint.

Lina: You're kidding, right?

Bob: No.

Lina: Can't we have any more?

Bob: No.

Back to the boys, and one girl…

Shipheel: Gourry-dear this is creepy. *clings to his arm*

Chibi Gourry: I like this.

Gourry: But she's not Lina.

Chibi Gourry: Like you're ever going to get with that temper mental sorceress.

Gourry: But…

Chibi Gourry: Do you want to spend the rest of your life getting fireballed?

Gourry: No, but…

Zel: Gourry? Who are you talking to?

Shipheel: *Quickly grabs the chibi Gourry and puts it with the others*

Gourry: Oh, no one… *Goes to squash the chibi only to find it's not there*

Chibi Zelgadiss: I don't see how Lina puts up with him, he's so dim!

Chibi Shipheel: Don't be mean to Gourry-sama!

Zel: Gourry-sama? *looks at Shipheel oddly*

Shipheel: *laughs nervously*

Gourry: What?

Zel: Oh, nothing… Does anyone beside me wonder why we haven't run into any one yet? Or came across any traps?

Gourry: It is kinda odd…

Xelloss: *appears* That's because you're all in the wrong castle.

Zel: What?

Xelloss: Lina and the others are in the other castle.

Zel: How'd you know that?

Xelloss: I always know where she is.

Gourry: But how?

Xelloss: The talismans I gave her.

Zel: Why didn't you tell us that we were in the wrong castle sooner?

Xelloss: I had business to attend to.

Gourry: Guys, Shipheel's gone.

Zel: Oh no! They got her too. *turns and glares at Xelloss*

Xelloss: What? Oh, you think I did this don't you?

Gourry: Well… You appear and Shipheel disappears…

Xelloss: This is the thanks I get for trying to help?

Zel: Help whom?
