Scene Three:
[It is pitch-dark in the plane, the lights have gone out...]
Bokutou No Ryu: ...Um... *glances around* Who turned off the damn lights? Or are talking about a blackout here...? Oh, please let it /not/ be the latter... *prays silently*
Man beside him: *nods his head in time to the music in the headphones*
Yoh: *ungags Anna* You okay?
Anna: *spats at the ground* Ugh. That Hao's gonna get it! Wait 'till I get my hands on him! *shakily gets up from Yoh's lap and walks toward the back of the plane, intending to find Hao*
Yoh: O-Oi, Anna! Come back! You're not suppose to-
[Due to the darkness (and someone's leg spread out comfortably), Anna tripped...]
Anna: Eeeargh!! *falls flat on her face*
Yoh: ...walk... *stares helplessly*
A passenger: Oh, havens! What happened?? *looks over at Anna*
Another passenger: *shakes head* Some peeps do the weirdest things...
Manta: .....
[Chocolove and Tamao are sitting quietly in their seats...]
Chocolove: .....
Tamao: .....
Chocolove: ...It's kinda dark, don'tcha think?
Tamao: Yea...
Chocolove: ..... Are you feeling kinda warm?
Tamao: Yea...
Chocolove: *nods his head, still not facing her* Me too...
[Silence in the air]
Chocolove: ..... *turns to her* Do you hate me?
Tamao: Yea... *realizes what she'd just said and panics* Oh! I mean, /no/! No, of course not! *bites lip in shame*
Chocolove: *nods slowly* Oh...okay... *turns back to face the seat in front of him*
[Hao is scowling at the seat which the man, who had previously shouted at him, was occupying. Lyserg, on the other hand, is staring blankly at the closed window, unwilling to face Hao's direction]
Hao: ..... Oi, Lyserg.
Lyserg: What?
Hao: *turns to him* What in the goddamn world do you think you're doing, staring at a shut window? Do you see fairies and fountains there?
Lyserg: *sighs in irritation at the window* Yeah, in bikinis too.
Hao: *eyes light up* Where?? The fairies or the fountains(in bikinis)? *scrambles onto Lyserg, trying to get a better view of the window*
Lyserg: Oi!! Get your ass off me!! *shoves at Hao in repulsion*
Hao: *frowns at the window* I don't see anything. Are you hallucinating or somethin'?
Lyserg: Yeah, yeah. Returntoyourseatnow!
Hao: *settles back on his own seat* Really, Lyserg, you shouldn't be fooling around with babes in bikinis. You /know/ how I feel about them.
Lyserg: *snorts* Like screwing the cow isn't enough--
Hao: O_O I DID NOT SCREW ANY STUPID COW!! Yeesh! I /knew/ it was a bad idea to go live with my farmer nephew for a week! Now the rumours have spread! Seriously, I do /not/ screw cows!
The man sitting in front of them: *turns around in a rage* So why don'tcha go screw yourself for a change?!! And be sure to staple that hell-of-a- mouth of yours!!!
Hao: *flinches in shock*
Lyserg: That's what you get for screaming in an airplane.
Hao: *growls under his breath* I'm bored. And since you're the only one available at the moment-
Lyserg: *turns slightly red* That came out sounding /really/ bad, Hao.
Hao: *blinks* It wasn't a pick-up line. o.o
Lyserg: I know! Just find something to do. Kill yourself for an experiment or something. I'd be happier that way.
Hao: *rolls eyes* You don't have to make things worse for me. It's already unbearable as it is.
Lyserg: I never intend to. You do that perfectly fine on your own.
Hao: Why you-
Lyserg: Hush. You started this.
Hao: *grumbles* Now I /really/ regret not bringing some aspirin... +_+
[The lights flicker on again, much to everyone's delight]
Loudspeaker: Drinks and light snacks will be served in a moment.
Horohoro: Great! ^_^ Can't wait for that. I'm famished.
Ren: +_+; You've just eaten a whole bag of chips at home...
Horohoro: Well, that was hours ago! I'm hungry again.
Ren: You're /always/ hungry.
Horohoro: ^^ You must love me a lot to notice that. I thought you'd never notice.
Ren: *mutters* Anyone would.
[After a while...]
Ren: *eyes the food piled up in front of Horohoro* T_T;
Horohoro: ^V^ *gobbles up the potato stew, meat pies and etc, etc, etc...including some tiny marble-like things they've never seen, which the stewardess called 'sweets'*
Ren: ...You...uh...have a real big appetite...
Horohoro: Why, yes, of course I do! ^__^ You don't know how pleased I am that you pointed /that/ out! Thought you never noticed.
Ren: *smacks his own forehead* Will you quit that? It's gettin' pretty annoying.
Horohoro: *stops eating* What? *smile fading* Surely not....
Ren: Er...no, I- *pauses when Horohoro gave him a my-heart-is-sinking-to- the-pit-of-my-stomach look* S-Sorry...I-
Horohoro: Why, Ren...?
Ren: *stammers* N-No, Horo. You got the wrong-
Horohoro: Why...aren't you eating? *points to Ren's beefsteak in concern*
Ren: . . . . . *sweatdrops*
[Yoh and Manta are fanning Anna, who is currently very red from embarrassment and anger; probably more of the latter...]
Yoh: *fans Anna with a napkin* Feeling better, Anna?
Anna: *growls*
Manta: *fans her with a 'Safety Rules While In A Plane' card* Hopefully so, right, Miss Anna?
Anna: *growls some more*
[Meanwhile...]
Bokutou No Ryu: Oh, thank heavens the lights are finally on! I guess it wasn't a blackout after all.
Lights: *sizzle sizzle POOF!*
[The lights go out]
Loudspeaker: It seems there is a slight problem with the electricity. We assure you we will do the best we can to fix it. We apologize about the inconvience. Thank you.
Bokutou No Ryu: . . . . . I shouldn't have said that too soon.
The man beside him: *nods his head in time to the music*
[Hao is eating his sandwich when all of a sudden...]
Hao: What the hell...? I can't see a thing. Lyserg, where are you?
Lyserg: I'm right here, idiot.
Hao: Right where?
Lyserg: Beside you! I think it's a blackout.
Hao: A blackout? In a plane? Does that happen often?
Lyserg: Not that I know.
Hao: Great. This is just great. The perfect vacation.
Lyserg: ...Will you just calm down and be quiet?
Hao: It doesn't make much difference if I be calm or not. Look; some passengers have already lost their self-control.
[In the background, screams were audible]
Loudspeaker: Dear passengers, please be calm. The electricity will be back working in a moment.
