Chapter 1: Wonderful, Beautiful, Fluffy Purple Slippersbr
bR
It was raining outside.Br
That was what started everything, the stupid weather. All Ivan
wanted was a big blanket, a fire in the fireplace, a mug of hot soup, and
his fluffy purple slippers. The slippers, which were currently up in his
pack, were essential to his relaxation.Br
Br
He took the stairs of Isaac's house two at a time, nearly
breaking his neck when he tripped over the cat and coming far too close
to impailing himself on the sword Saturos was carrying down the stairs.bR
br
"Woah kid, slow down!" the blue-skinned Mars Adept pulled the
sword away. "You're going to poke out your eye or your liver or
something if you keep running around like that!"br
Br
Everyone, even Ivan's mortal enemies, had gathered at Isaac's
house. Dora, who was currently down in the kitchen making them all a
massive dinner, was more than happy to have them all. Which was probably
a good thing, Mars Adepts get really pissy in the rain.br
br
"Sorry," Ivan muttered, brushing past Saturos and continuing on
his quest.br
br
"What's the rush?" Saturos yelled after him. Ivan ignored him.Br
Br
He made it to Isaac's room room where his pack was but Isaac
wasn't. All of the girls were, though. Ivan kneeled next to his pack,
tore it open the top despite the fact that it opened on the side, and
began throwing things around the room with such violence that he nearly
beheaded Karst.br
Br
"Hey!" she ducked, one of Ivan's shoes ruffling her pink hair
when it passed just above her head. "Watch it!"Br
br
"We're trying to have girl talk here!" Jenna yelled.bR
Br
"I'l be out in a minute, please continue," Ivan said. He was
nearly burned to a crisp by a burst of flame from Karst, but he ignored
her, digging down through his clothing.Br
Br
"You'd better," Mia glared at him, then returned her attention to
the conversation at hand. "So, I think Garet's really HOT."br
Br
"Of course he's hot, he's a Mars Adept!" Sheba rolled her eyes.
"I'm all for Felix...but Picard is really cute, too. Wouldn't you say
so, Menardi?"Br
br
Menardi shook her head. "Saturos. All the way."Br
br
"Saturos is a weak, ugly little man," Karst scoffed. "Now,
Agatio. THAT'S a REAL man."br
Br
"But he's so...CREEPY looking!" Jenna protested. "Now, if want
someone who has the looks and the personality, it'd be Alex."Br
br
"Alex? No WAY!" Mia giggled. "I didn't know you liked Alex!"br
br
"Well, Alex is sexy," Jenna blushed. Her mood swung abruptly and
she glared at Ivan. "Are you DONE yet?"Br
bR
Ivan, his belongings strewn on the ground around him,
his town and empty pack in hs hands, threw back his head and screamed.Br
Br
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Br
Br
His slippers...his wonderful, beautiful, fluffy purple
slippers...Br
Br
Gone.Br
Br
No, you're not done yet?" Jenna asked. "Well, step on it!"br
Br
Ivan broke out of his despair, his sorrow replaced with the fires
of determination. "Someone stole my slippers."br
br
"Whatever," Menardi flipped her long, blone hair over her
shoulder. "Just go away."br
Br
Ivan stood suddenly, knocking Isaac's lamp over. The light shone
up into his eyes, and cast eerie shadows on his face. "I will hunt down
the cluprit and get back my slippers! I WILL be avenged!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!"br
Br
Outside lightening flashed, filling the entire room with an
ethreal blue glow. Thunder boomed, and the wind knocked over a tree.
Ivan's sworn vengence would become reality.br
bR
The girls weren't impressed.Br
Br
"Can you GO now?" Sheba asked.Br
Br
Ivan ignored her, bounding out of the room, hitting Isaac with
the door when he entered the hall.br
Br
"Hey, apologizing is a good idea!" Isaac called to Ivan's
retreating back. The Jupiter Adept's only reply was an insane cackle.
Isaac shook his head. "I will NOT ask, I will NOT question, I will GO
with the FLOW..."Br
Br
Ivan's first intoggeration was with the ultimate evil, the scum
of the earth, the slime ball of all eternity...br
Br
Ivan pushed the head of hisstaff under Alex's chin. "alright.
Where are they?"Br
Br
The Mercury Adept dropped the book he had been reading, looking
nervously at the staff that was about to stab through his head. "What?"Br
Br
"I know you did it! Don't act innocent, you vile...thing...you!"
Ivan pushed harder, forcing Alex's head back. "Now, where are they?!"br
Br
"I have NO idea what you're TALKING about!" Alex pleaded his
innocence.br
br
"That's what they all said..." Ivan laughed maniacally. "They
were all lying, too!"br
bR
"Who's 'they'?"BR
br
Ivan paused. "No idea. But it doesn't matter. What DOES matter
is that I KNOW you did it."br
Br
"Did what?" Alex asked.Br
Br
"You know what you did, you scum bag!" Ivan yelled. "Don't even
TRY this innocent act with me! I know what you're like, I'm not head
over heels for you like Jenna is!"Br
br
"Jenna likes me?" Alex seemed very keen to continue talking about
THAT.Br
Br
"That's not the point!" Ivan poked hard with the staff to remind
him just who was the helpless one. "The point is that you, YOU stole my
slippers."Br
Br
"Your slippers?" a hint of amusement entered Alex's voice.
"That's what this is about?"br
Br
"Yes! My fluffy purple slippers!" Ivan yelled. "What have you
done with them?"bR
Br
"Nothing," Alex said. "I saw them in the hall."br
Br
"The hall?" Ivan eyed him suspiciously.Br
br
"Hey, mind read me if you want," Alex held up his hands. Br
Br
"Okay," Ivan cast mindread.Br
Br
Alex was thinking...*The last time I saw your slippers was in the
upstairs hall and I didn't touch them and I'm not lying because you can't
lie mind to mind.*Br
Br
"Alright," Ivan lowered his staff and ran away, not bothering to
apologize or thank Alex.Br
br
"Strange kid," Alex muttered, rubbing his sore chin.Br
