Chapter 2: A Cookie Shop for Evil Henchmen? WHAT?!

Picard and Sheba were walking down the path. It still looked like Spring,
but Picard was getting actually getting used to the strange weather patterns
around Kalay, Vault, and Vale.

"This is so much FUN!" Sheba was saying. "I get to travel around with you AGAIN!
Delivering these fortune cookies will be fun!"

"Yup" Picard wasn't really paying attention. "Uh huh. Fun. Right."

That was when he tripped over something. Picard went sprawling, and a giant
cake fell on top of him.

"PICARD!" Sheba screamed. "Picard, are you alright?"

"Owch." Picard tried to move, to no avail. "This seems awfully familiar."

An evil laughter came from the forest, followed by choking sounds and coughing.
Saturos stepped out of the bushes, brushing leaves off of his armor, still
coughing. "You'd think the sinister laugh would be EASIER!" he looked up to
see Picard underneath a cake and Sheba standing nearby. He immediately became
much more evil. "HAHA! You have fallen for my DEVIOUS trap!"

"Mm, I wonder how this tastes," Sheba leaned forward and pulled off a bit of
the cake.

"Hey! I'm talking here!" Saturos yelled.

"It SUCKS!" Sheba glared at Saturos. "Your heart was put into this, but you
didn't have the right ingredients at all! And then you WASTED it by dropping
it on Picard!"

"I-I'll try harder!" he began to tear up. "I'm not very good yet, I just started
cooking!"

"Well, get to work!" Sheba ordered him. He nodded and ran off.

"That was easy," Picard muttered. Torch made noises of agreement.

Um, yeah that was interesting.

Picard'"::
Yeah, weird, huh?
Isaac: ::in the special pink and purple sparkly marker "Does this color make
me look gay?"::
I don't think I'm going to answer that.
