STORYTIME With Red

Naruki: Papa! Papa! Can we hear another story!

Kichigo: Yeah, papa! I wanna hear a story!

Nanaki: Oh, um, well…

Manoki: Oh, Nanaki, go ahead. I've got to go hunt, and the kids need someone to babysit them.

Manoki leaves the cave.

Nanaki: Okay, sure thing kids, but what do you want to hear about?

Kichigo: Let's hear an adventurous, bloody story!

Naruki: No! Then I'll get nightmares! I want a story about a fairy princess…

Kichigo: Ick! Girly stuff!

Naruki: I don't care, I like it!

Nanaki: STOP!! Here, I'll tell you a story about that place down there.

Nanaki points to Midgar, now covered in forests.

Nanaki: That place was called Midgar. It is where Cloud, Barret and Tifa found me.

Kichigo: Cool, I'm ready for a good story!

Nanaki: Okay, once upon a time…

Naruki: Owww! Papa! Kichigo's hitting me!!

Kichigo: Nuh uh!

Naruki: Uh huh!

Nanaki: Be quiet! I'm tryin to tell a story! Do you want to hear one or not!

Naruki: Waaaaahhh!!!

Kichigo: Oh shut up, crybaby!

Naruki: I'm not a crybaby, you're just a big doo-doo head, meanie-pants stinky-butt!

Kichigo: Oh, no! You hurt me! *chuckles*

Naruki: Stoppit! Papa!

Nanaki: Okay, that's it! No story! Go to bed!

Kichigo: Uh, Papa. The Sun is still up high in the sky.

Nanaki: Oh darn it. Okay, I'll tell you a story if you promise to be good.

Kichigo and Naruki: Okay.

Nanaki: Okay, once upon a time…

All of the sudden, a dark shadow swoops over them. The area goes dark.

Naruki: AAAHH!! It's all dark! I'm scared!

Kichigo: You're ALWAYS scared!

Naruki: Am not!

Kichigo: Are too!

Naruki: Am not!

Kichigo: Are too!

Two hours later…

Naruki: Am not!

Kichigo: Are too!

Nanaki is down for the count due to the constant screaming of his too offspring.

Kichigo: Heh. Looks like Papa wore himself out.

Naruki: Yeah. And we didn't even get to hear a story.

Kichigo: You know. I wish we would've listened to Papa. I really do wonder…
Nanaki: I'll tell you… evil scientists who do experiments on you, and blast you with rays, and expose you to radio-active beams. That's where we parents send naughty kids when they misbehave.

Kichigo: Oh, Papa, you wouldn't send US there, would you?

Naruki: Yeah, we don't misbehave, do we?

Nanaki: Oh, we won't send you there… today!!

Kichigo and Naruki run into the cave and hide.

Nanaki: Now go to sleep. Hide under you're covers and don't make any noise, if you treasure you're lives!

That night…

Manoki: I'm back. Were the kids okay?

Nanaki: Oh sure, we shouldn't be hearing much from them for awhile.
