And the fun just keeps going.....and going and going.....So now we have a whole new crowd of
kids to add into the mix, and most of them were in on the whole five year old scam to start with.
And with the addition of the new members, they added a few more Magician class talents to
the girls side. It is Yves who has the age changing ability. Now, as Langly, Byers, and Jimmy
know where the girls base is, We'll have Agent Jay fix that one for us. Because it's not fair as
the girls don't know where the boys are....and in case you're wondering, Agent Jay will also fix
the fact that Lucy and Nikki know where the boys are. Glory also knows, but the flashything
doesn't work on her, and she will agree not to tell.
Okay, Cassi's 2nd Lortab today is now kicking in and we'll see about another chapter. We have
an ice storm today in case you're wondering, and my legs are KILLING me!!!! Oh yeah, and
Sven's sick. Caught our mom's cold, she did.
**Sven:
Okay...a few things. Abby and Carter on the marriage thing. It's in Chameleon.....during which,
Youth Elixer taked place...during the break after chapter six.. When this ends it will go right
into Chameleon chapter seven. So there will be a drop off ending at the end of this.
To find out what happens after this, you will have to wait for Chameleon to come out. But
don't worry yet. We aren't even close to an end yet. Also the bit on magic. In Xanth
every one has a magic talent. So the people on our set are aquiring them....THAT is why
we keep mentioning them. On Abby's talent which switches her into Anya and Sarah Harding:
Usually this goes by the phases of the moons. HOWEVER for comedy sake, and to get rid
of more boredom, we are making her phases switch over the hours of the day. Anyway,
enjoy. The main thing we wanted to do was even the sides out. If you'll count the members of
each side, you'll come up with at least four more boys than girls. Cassi says perhaps we should
give the boys a chance to surrender. ^_^

"Cooties?" Benton asked Chuny in surprise.

Chuny nodded. "That's what the girl said." She answered. "And..." She pulled him closer.
"They've got Romano tied up as a hostage somewhere."

Benton started laughing. "You've got to be kidding." He managed to get out. "Did they say
where?"

Chuny shook her head. "No, they didn't." She answered, regretfully. "But the whole idea of
him as a hostage sounds pretty funny."

"Who?" Kerry asked, stepping up.

"Chuny figured out why we haven't seen the kids in a while." Benton informed her.

Weaver raised her eyebrows. "Oh really?" She remarked. "Do tell."

"According to a little girl, they're having a "Cooties" war. Boys against girls." Chuny
answered, laughing. "And the girls have Dr. Romano tied up somewhere in the building as
their hostage."

Kerry burst out laughing. "Now that I would PAY to see." She said between giggles.

Chuny shook her head. "I don't know." She put in. "From what I heard, Romano was a willing
hostage."

Weaver frowned. "Willing?" She asked, surprised. "Tell me you're joking."

Chuny shook her head. "Something about him wanting to stay with Dr. Corday, I think."

Peter shook his head. "Now that doesn't surprise me." He answered.

Chuny smiled. "That isn't all. They're looking for more girls." She informed them. "The little
girl playing with them came to get her mother so she could play too."
_________

Off to the side, Carter looked at Ardeth in disbelief. "He was a WILLING hostage?!" He
mouthed.

Ardeth frowned, and shook his head. "This is not good."

Creepy nodded in agreement. "And not fair either." He put in. "What do you think he's telling
them?"

"He could be playing both sides." Carter realized. "Come to think of it, he never said he'd play
the game."

"So what do we do?" Creepy asked.

Carter sighed. "We have to tell the others."

"They just got Buffy to play, too." Ardeth added. "That's Shadowkitty's mother they were
talking about."

"That ain't all." A voice spoke up next to them.

The trio turned to see three boys. Two with short brown hair, and the other with long blond
hair....***yes Langly has long hair, dispite the fact that he DIDN'T as a child***

"Who are you?" Carter asked, staring.

Langly grinned. "We're the ones who started this whole mess." He answered. "You think we'd
let you guys have all the fun?"

"Langly." Ardeth replied, grinning. "And Jimmy....and..."

"Byers." Byers finished.

"Who else is playing?" Carter asked, grinning.

"Glory, Lucy, Yves and Nikki." Langly informed them. "They're already headed up to the girl's
base."

"You know where it is?" Creepy asked, grinning.

"Not anymore." Byers told them. "Jay took care of that."

"But it was only fair, because he did it to the girls too." Jimmy added. They knew where you
guys were."

Carter nodded. "Now what's this about Romano being a willing hostage?" He asked.
*************************************************************************

Doug stared over at Carol as they watched the boys plan. "Do you?" He asked her.

Carol glared and shook her head. "No, I am not playing "COOTIES"!" She growled.

Doug made a disappointed look. "Can I?" He asked, pitifully.

Carol sighed. "Fine go play, just keep me out of it." She told him, and rolled her eyes as
he headed over to the boys group.

"I'll play!" Doug yelled, as he reached them. "Carol won't , though."

Carter grinned. "Good, that gives us extra......we just learned that Glory joined the girl's team."

"You have got to be kidding!" Doug exclaimed. Then saw the looks on the other's faces.
"You aren't.......we are sooo dead!"

"She has to play by the rules!" Langly stated.

Doug shook his head wondering if he should have agreed with Carol, he had a feeling
the girls would win. After all, the Authors were women, what if they joined in? "What
about the Authors?" He asked.

Carter stared. "They wouldn't!" He argued.

Ardeth held up his hand. "They might, I know I wouldn't put it past them....although, I doubt
anyone will get Cassi out of Romano's office. She seems to have claimed it for her own. Not
surprisingly." He pointed out. "Sven would be the one I'm worried about."

"She's the homicidal maniac!" Dave protested, walking up to them with Kovac.

Carter glared. "And what am I, chopped liver?" He demanded.

Dave swallowed. "Right, I forgot."

Ardeth stared. "You forgot being killed THREE times?"

Dave laughed "Okay, I wasn't thinking."

"You think?" Carter retorted.

"That's not funny."Dave shot back.

Creepycrawler watched, amused. Doug caught his eye. "Are they fighting like X-Babies,
or is it just me?" He asked.

Creepy nodded. "Zhey are fighting like Volvie and Cyke." He agreed.

"Are not!" Carter and Dave protested, sounding just like Wolvie and Cyke....without Cyke's
audible lisp.
**********************************************************************

Meanwhile, on the roof, Romano was now bored of watching Chen change her hair, and had
begun to complain again. Elizabeth cast a sympathetic look in his direction. The location was
not helping him out any.

"What?" Susan asked, seeing her look.

Elizabeth shook her head. "You do realize this is not the best place for him, don't you?" She
remarked.

Susan looked over toward the helicopter pad, and sighed. "Yeah, I know....but let's face it. The
guys would never expect us to bring him here." She answered, honestly.

Elizabeth nodded. "True, but this can't be very easy on your hostage."

"Well do you know where ELSE to put him?!" Susan shot out. "I mean they'd EXPECT us to
put him in a closet somewhere."

Elizabeth frowned. "What about the OB unit?" She asked. "There's still patients in there.
Certainly, they won't expect us to take him where there's patients."

Susan appeared to think about it. "So what do we do about the patients?" She asked.
"Kerry and the others have got to be looking for us."

"Well, it IS Robert we have tied up." Elizabeth retorted, with a small smile. "We're trying to
make it so the boys won't find him, and he's not particularly well-liked in the hospital. Perhaps
the nurses there would let us do it."

"You'd have to get them to play along." A voice spoke up behind them.

Both girls jumped and turned to see a small group of girls they didn't recognize.

"Who are you?" Susan asked, staring.

The girls grinned. "We got tired of watching the fun, and decided to join you." A blond with
long curly hair commented.

Susan grinned, recognizing the red satin dress she was wearing. "Glory!?"

Glory grinned wider. "Yeah, that's me." She answered. "We figured that since you were
outnumbered, we'd join the mix. I believe you know Nikki, Yves, and Lucy."

Elizabeth turned white. "Lucy!?" She whispered, at last realizing who the shorter blond was.
"Oh my....." She trailed off as she fainted.

Across the roof, Romano saw her go down. "Lizzie?!" He shouted, struggling.

"She's probably okay." Chen reassured him, before running over. "What's going on?"

Lucy bit her lip. "My fault." She replied. "I keep forgetting who was there when I died.
Remember? Romano...hyperventilating?" **In Spoof of Chameleon, we brought back Lucy
Knight. The reactions of Romano and Carter were the most memorable....if you'll remember,
Romano was in fact holding her heart in his hand when she died, and it was very obvious it
affected him emotionally.**

Jing Mei looked at Lucy, suddenly understanding what had happened. "Ahh, right." She
spoke up, with a nod. "Why don't you go watch Romano while we help Elizabeth out?"

Lucy nodded and walked over to where Romano was watching them with Corday, concern
actually visible on his face. "Hi again." She remarked. "I think Elizabeth was a little surprised
to see me."

Romano frowned a second before he realized who he was looking at. He gave her a once-over,
before looking over her shoulder at Elizabeth, who was now getting off the ground. "Yeah, I
guess that was about how I reacted." He retorted, nodding. "When did you join the game?"

Lucy grinned. "Well it was really no fun watching you guys have all the fun, and the girls
really were outnumbered, what with Ardeth being what he is." She explained. "So me, Yves,
Nikki and Glory decided to join. Langly, Byers, and Jimmy joined the boys side. Oh yeah, did
you know Yves has the talent to change the age of a person?"

Romano raised his eyebrows. "No, I didn't. Interesting. Did you see what Chen can do to her
hair?" He asked.

Lucy laughed. "Yeah, I saw it on the monitor!" She answered. "I'm told I have a big one, but I
don't know what it is yet."

"I know how it goes." Romano informed her. "I have yet to see my own.....although knowing
Cassi's sense of humor, it must be a goodie. Hey Lizzie, I see you met Lucy...again."

Elizabeth shook her head. "You knew she was alive?" She asked Romano, looking as if she
couldn't believe he hadn't told her.

Lucy grinned. "Yeah, he was hyperventilating when he found out." She answered. "They
brought me back, and I got to see what happened after Carter and I were......after it happened.
Thankyou....both of you. I'm sorry I freaked you out." **We showed her the video of "All in
the Family"**

Elizabeth looked down. "Sorry we couldn't...."

"It's okay." Lucy replied. "You tried, and that's really all that counts to me......and if you think
YOUR reaction was good, you should have seen Carter's! I think he went catatonic, or some
thing. I know he fainted."

"He did?" Romano asked, staring.

"Yeah, but you were laying on the floor at the time." She answered, with a laugh.

"Hey guys! If you're done getting reaquainted, we were discussing the possibility of getting
off the roof." Abby cut in, walking up to the trio. "Shadowkitty found Buffy and Dawn, and
Yves shrunk them down."

"And the girls are multiplying." Romano mused.

"Yeah, well the boys are, too." Jing Mei informed him. "Our sources tell us that Doug, Ice Boy,
Magneato, Phyro, Toadpole, Charlie X, Colossusus,Gumbo, and Slob have joined the boys side,
as well as the Gunmen, with the exception of Frohike."

"They found Phyro?" Romano remarked. "Do you think they can get a message to that kid
that I don't want anymore fires around the hospital? We DO still have patients here."

Abby nodded. "I'll pass that along." She answered. "We're checking into moving to the OB
ward."

Romano frowned. "There's still doctors as well as patients there." He said, confused. "They
won't let you do that."

Abby grinned. "Yeah, but the nurses there agreed to hide us there." She explained. "I still
have a few friends there, remember? All we had to do was tell them that we had the five
year old Chief of Staff tied up as a hostage. They thought it was so funny, that they agreed to
let us use their lounge.....provided they get to see the goods."

"Goods?" Elizabeth questioned.

"Yeah, him." Abby answered, motioning to Romano, with a wide grin. "They want to take
pictures."

Romano's mouth dropped open. "You people are just SICK, you know that?"

Lucy started laughing. "Oh come on, it sounds funny." She remarked, between giggles.

"I don't believe this." Romano muttered under his breath.

"Elizabeth's laughing." Jing Mei put in.

Romano glared at her. "Traitor." He retorted, causing her to laugh harder.

Cassi's note
Okay, I'm gonna end this here. I was gonna continue, but I really don't feel much like typing
I finished the last blanket last night//Fri. Mar 7. So that's out of the way. Unfortunately, I was
stretching this morning and turned wrong. I seem to have pinched a nerve in my neck and have
loads of pain when turning my head to the right, and it goes all the way through my shoulder
and down the right arm....luckly, I'm left handed. ^_^ The pain killers have kicked in, but due to
our wonderful family problem of immunities, they aren't touching the neck pain....although I DO
feel pretty buzzed. Selective painkillers.....sucks, huh? On the bright side, my knee doesn't hurt.
The pain killers actually work on that. Another wonderful weather change! 26 degrees one day
and 60 the next! Fun, huh? Anyhow, I'm gonna go back and check the typos, then after that,
I check the typos in Fellowship--because guess what! Part 6 is complete! Part 7 will be the
conclusion and the end of the third season of spoofs! Thankyou all for the reviews you've been
so wonderful to bestow upon us! Please be patient for the next stories as they are not complete!
When Fellowship is finished, we'll take a short break from the spoofs, while we work on writing
more of the next ones. Of the new spoofs, only Forbidden Spoof is close to being finished. The
rest are at the very most, halfway through. We will continue to post the Youth Elixer story as
a filler while we work on the next set of spoofs! And I am working on Forbidden Spoof pt 4.
For now enjoy....and now I think I really need to stop. I'm seeing the Chiropractor on Monday,
thank God...Give us reviews now!!!! We want to know what you think.....oh yeah, sorry to those
who are not big on the Cordano scene...but we're both Cordano shippers as we said, and Greene
is in fact supposed to be dead....she really does need to move on sometime, and Romano is
let's face it, her best friend. Although Corday IS going to know that Greene is still alive....she's
going to need him to help bring back the dead bodies at the end of Jurassic III, because most
of the med team is not going to be available.....mainly because they're the dead bodies, but that's
beside the point. More to come!!!!
