EXCEL: Meet Lime Meet Danger
"I'm Lime!" The oddly dressed girl announced. Shocked, Excel leaped backwards! It must have been Lime of the Saber Marionettes. "Oh!" Lime pointed. "Your doggie is turning blue!" Only now realizing that she had Menchi in a death-grip, Excel relaxed and put her on the pavement.
It was hot outside, but that was not the reason that Excel was sweating. "You don't look so well miss." Lime began to say.
"Oh! Hehe." Excel stuttered and nervously stooped to pet Menchi on the head. "I'm Excel! Nice to meet you Lime." Arf! Arf! Menchi's paws were burning on the hot pavement.
"You want to go get an Ice Cream, Excel?" Lime offered. "I know this great little ice-cream stand down the way!" Excel shook her head so that her intense locks blurred across her face.
"No, hehe, um, maybe we should skip the ice-cream today." Excel answered, remembering her earlier consumption at the stand.
Suddenly, the earth was shaking violently all around the two girls! "What's going on?!" They both shouted in unison. The sky was creaking and straining in its blueness. All clouds twisted, contorting their wispy bodies as if trying to escape something horrible. Cars screeched to a halt in the street and wary pedestrians crouched close to the ground.
Serious faced, Lime turned to Excel. "Let's go, Excel."
"But, I don't really even know you!" Excel exclaimed. "And what do you mean 'let's go'?" Grabbing Excel's wrist, Lime shot up into the tormented sky, yellow bandana and Excel flailing wildly behind her. On the ground, Menchi wagged her tail as she watched the girls soar higher and higher. Despite the violent tremors from the earth and the breaking pavement all around her, she was safer being free from Excel. .
