Lina: Hey, Joe?

Joe: Yea?

Lina: Can I have some food?

Joe: Here, have a stick of gum.

Lina: A stick of gum?

Joe: You all can have a piece.

Lina: A piece?

Joe: Yeah.

Lina: Oh, I give up!

Joe: Do you want the piece of gum or not?

Lina: Yea, yea, yea…

They all take pieces of gum.

Lina: Oh, there's something I've been meaning to ask you…

Joe: Yea?

Lina: Is Xelloss helping you all in anyway?

Filia: I knew it! I should have killed him from the start!

Joe: Calm down. I don't know anyone by the name of Xelloss.

Jim: My shift.

Joe: Hey Jim?

Jim: Yea?

Joe: Do you know anyone by the name of Xelloss?

Jim: Well, I'm new here and I don't know everybody's name yet…

Lina: You don't know everybody's name yet? HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW?!? EVEN I KNOW EVERYBODY'S NAME! IT'S NOT THAT HARD!!!!

Amelia: Yea. It isn't that complicated.

Jim: I don't know ok? I'm not that good with names.

Filia: Understatement of the year award goes to… Jim!

Amelia: Is it just me, or is she acting like Mr. Zelgadiss?

Lina: Don't you know? We caught them making out!

Amelia: Mr. Zelgadiss, and Filia? *Goes into nervous breakdown mode*

Filia: Miss Lina, that isn't helping… Besides YOU SLEPT WITH XELLOSS!

Amelia: Miss Lina how could you? *Goes on and on*

Lina: Now, now, it's not what it sounds like. Really!

The guys drag in Shipheel. While Lina and Co. are getting to know how Shipheel ended up here, the guys are…

Xelloss: I can't believe it! Oh, I see, you're just jealous because you wanted Lina-chan all for your self.

Zel: That is totally untrue!

Gourry: Hey! Don't kidnap me; I'm not a girl!

Bad Guy Masked Dude: My bad. *Leaves waving an apologetic hand*

Xelloss: Gourry! Stop him!

Gourry: Why?

Zel: He knows where Filia and Lina are!

Xelloss: Since when did Filia EVER come before Lina-chan?

Gourry: Guys, he's getting away…

Zel: I know, you're trying to stall!

Xelloss: Come on. *Drags Zel after the Bad Guy Masked Dude*

Zel: Hey! Let go of me!

While our argumentative heroes followed the ever-elusive Bad Guy Masked Dude, let's check up on are damsels in distress…

Lina: I AM NOT A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS!

Well, you've been one before!

Lina: Yea! I got called a short little kid with a flat chest!

Get over it!

Shipheel: I can't wait for Gourry dear to run in and save me! *In Shipheel vision, Gourry has swept her off her feet and is surrounded by roses. *

Filia: And Zelgadiss me. *Same thing as above only Zel holding Filia*

Lina: *in fake voice, kawaii eyes* And Xelloss me.

Xelloss: *makes an entrance with the other two, doing his hero impression* Glad you feel that way Lina.

The two love sick puppies swoon, leaving Lina gagging.

Amelia: Hey! Who do I end up with?

Shut up, I'm working on it! The guys fight off the bad guys with no trouble at all.

Shipheel: Go Gourry!

Filia: Go Zelgadiss!

Lina: Go bad guys!

Xelloss: *pouts* Oh, Lina you don't really mean that do you? *All the while dodging all the bad guy's assaults*

Amelia: I wanted to be with Mr. Zelgadiss!

After a short fight the guys free the women.

Zel: *picks up Filia, more like sweeps her off her feet* Are you ok?

Filia: *Flash back to the rose scene* Yea, I think so…

Gourry: *Picks up Amelia* Are you ok?

Shipheel: What?!?

Amelia: *Gets all starry eyed* Oh, Mr. Gourry!

Lina: Humph! *Eyes the couples jealously*

Xelloss: *Picks up Boss* Who are you working for?

Masked Lady: You need ask?

Billy Bob Joe Jim: Miss Shipheel?

Shipheel: Yes?

Billy Bob Joe Jim: Umm, I don't know how to say this… Umm… Will you go out with me?

Shipheel: *takes one long last pathetic look at Gourry* Yes, let's go.

Billy Bob Joe Jim: *Sweeps her off her feet*

Lina: This is just great. *Eyes Shipheel and Billy Bob Joe Jim*

Masked Lady: Hello? Pay attention to meeeee!

Masked Lady 2: OH HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO!

Lina: I know that laugh!

Masked Lady 2: You are right Lina! It is I Naga, the great white serpent! *rips off her mask*

Masked Lady: What about me?

Amelia: Gracia? Is that you?

Naga: No, I am Naga! Naga the serpent! Naga…

Lina: Her name's Naga and she's a pain in the…

Filia: SHE'S NOT SWEARING!!

Masked Lady: Wow, you're still really small aren't you Lina?

Naga: Yea, you haven't grown much since you were twelve?

Masked Lady: *stuck up laugh*

Lina: I know that stuck up laugh!

Zel: Isn't it odd she identifies people by their laugh?

Filia: Well, with laughs like those…

Masked Lady: It is I Martina…

Lina: Don't start on your name!

Naga: OH, HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO HO!

Lina: Don't tell me. Don't tell me you two clowns are/were behind all this!

Martina: Well, Zelgandis did help a little…

Zelgandis: Gourry, I challenge you to a duel!

Lina: *mumbling*

Xelloss: Um, Lina-chan?

Lina: LET THE FOOLS WHO STAND BEFORE ME BE DESTROYED BY THE POWER YOU AND I POSSESS! DRAGON SLAVE!!!!

Martina: Lina, that wasn't fair!

Naga: Anyone have a bottle of brandy?

Lina: DRAGON SLAVE!!!

Xelloss: Now Lina…

Lina: DRAGON SLAVE!!!

Xelloss: Owww, ow!

Lina: Any one else adding anything?

Zelgandis: I didn't get to have my duel!

Lina: DRAGON SLAVE!!!!

Zelgadiss: Lina, please!

Lina: DRAGON SLAVE!!!!!!!!!

Xelloss comes around the back of Lina and grabs her around the waist.

Lina: Solar Plexus, insteps, something or the other *punches him unmercifully*, groin!

Xelloss: *rolling around on the ground, moaning*

Lina: Ray Wing! *flies off into the sunset*

Zel: Filia, are you ok?

Filia: Yea, I think so…

Zel: Tea?

Filia: Thank you.

Shipheel: *slipped away from the crazies when things were exploding*

Billy Bob Joe Jim: *Slipped away with her*

Gourry: Amelia, are you ok?

Amelia: Yes. Thank you Mr. Gourry!

Xelloss: Fazed out.

Lina finally had to stop and rest. She chose the inn closest to her location.

Lina: Room for…

Xelloss: *fazed in* 2 please.

Lina: Xelloss, what are you doing here?
