Hurrah, another installment! As for the Magnus question, I believe that if he's lived as long as he has and has been submerged in water, then hanging from the ceiling fan should be no prob for him, just a problem for Ryoken should the ceiling fan break. *grin*

Janos Discovers Pod Racing and Playstation2

By Ryoken

Grinning from ear to ear, Janos, for the who-knows-what time, won the pod race. He'd gotten pretty good after only playing for an hour or two. Everyone seemed to be getting fairly bored after about a half an hour, except for Janos, of course, even Magnus.

"Get away from me, creep, or you're gonna regret it," Ryoken said to Moebius for the hundredth time.

"What do you mean, I'm not doing anything but sitting here!!!" He complained.

"Wanna bet?"

"Yeah as a matter of fact, I do! I could use some extra cash." Ryoken looked at him strangely. "What??? First you claim I'm doing something wrong and now you're looking at me weird!" She shook her head in disgust and left the room.

"You stupid guardian, now look what you did!" Janos said as he turned around to look away from the game and at the Time Streamer. Everyone gasped at the sight of Janos taking his eyes off that game. "I might need some more help with this!!!!"

"How!?!?!? You're probably doing better than she could!!" Moebius mocked.

"Excuse me?!?! ExCUSE ME?!?! You did not just say that he was probably doing better than me!!!!" Ryoken yelled. She was right in the doorway.

"No ma'am!" He said, sitting up straight and shaking his head.

"That's better." She left the room. Moebius cursed something at her under his breath. "Oh so you're gonna mock me behind my back now?!" She said from the other room.

"How did she do that?!"

"That's it, I'm tired of this crap that you're giving me, JANOS, MOVE OVER!!!!!" She said, coming in and taking hold of the second controller. "I challenge you to a race, to prove to Moebius not to mess with me!"

"I accept, my dear."

"Now this could get interesting," Faustus whispered to Marcus.

"You can say that again."

"Now this could get interesting."

Marcus slapped the back of Faustus' head. "Idiot."

The radical girl sat down and used the first controller to get to the two player challenge mode. They selected their pods and, after she explained to Janos which screen to look at, they began their race in the desert. The two seemed to be evenly matched until they fighting for first place against each other. Ryoken, however, knew the trick to excellent pod racing skills and saved her energy for the speed boost, allowing Janos to use up his energy and take first. Once the last lap came around, Ryoken used the power she'd saved up and speed up and bumped the side of Janos's pod, knocking it into the canyon below, slowing him down and putting Ryoken in first and giving her the victory.

"Heh heh heh, who's the better player, Moebius!?" She mocked.

"*sighs* You are."

"You'd better believe it, bubba!" Suddenly, she heard the squeaking of tires coming to a halt. "My mom's home!! You guys have to get out of here right now!!!!" But when she turned to face them, they were gone. "Smart vampires."

Ok, so it's kinda dull, but that's why I'm giving everyone my permission to continue with this story however they wish on their own! (I was really stuck on this one)
