I don't own Slayers
=Unlikely Hero?! Amelia Saves The Day?! Part 2=
Amelia woke up as the sun filtered into her room. She had her last final that day. She grinned at the little birds that sang outside her window and waited for the usual scream of a girl that would greet the girl's dormitory every morning. However, nothing came. As Amelia thought about it, she realized that her roommate, Filia, or her friends, Syphiel and Lina, were missing for the past 4 or 5 days. As a matter of fact, the only person she saw there was Martina, and she was always in the bathroom screaming and muttering, "Zoamulgusterrrrrrrr YES!!! YES!!!" It was a tad bit frightening since there was no one named Zoamulguster in the school, so Amelia avoided her.
As she got up to get ready for class, she noticed that everything had changed since she had started the semester. For example, she wasn't afraid of the guys dorm anymore. Every time she looked out her window, all she saw was Gourry staring back at her. He waved, so it wasn't as threatening as Xelloss' grinning face and binoculars. But…where was Mr. Xelloss? And where was Ms. Filia and Ms. Lina and Mr. Zelgadiss and Ms. Syphiel?
===
Gourry and Amelia were in history class, starting up the final, when she asked, "Have you seen anyone lately?"
He grinned at her. "Of course I have. I've seen you, the teacher, the you…I'm lost."
Amelia frowned at him then realized he did answer her question. He's been studying, Amelia thought with happiness. Despite that, she went back to her thoughts. How could everyone go missing?
===
After the final, she decided to investigate. She looked all over school but found no sign of Ms. Lina, Mr. Zelgadiss, Mr. Xelloss, Ms. Filia, or Ms. Syphiel. They all appeared to have vanished.
Then one day, Amelia ran into some kid with a lightening bolt on his forehead.* She waved hello to him and he asked her if she knew anything about "The Chamber of Secrets* (AKA the Labyrinth)."
"No, I don't know anything about that. Why'd you ask that all of a sudden?"
He then started to do the following: HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Since Amelia could speak Parselmouth*, she slapped him across the face. "HOW DARE YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO ME! I'M A GOOD GIRL!" She then stormed off.
However, the Labyrinth did sound suspicious. An idea popped into her head. "That must be where the others are…but how do I get there?"
===
Amelia, not knowing what to do, went straight to Luna's office. Luna, apparently, was on vacation. "Nothing's going my way…" she whined to herself.
Gourry, who had been with her, sat at Luna's desk. He found a big red button that said "DON'T PUSH! DEAR CEIPHIED, DON'T PUSH!" So Gourry did the only thing any normal student would do. He pushed it.
The trap door opened and Amelia fell down the hole. Gourry stared at the hole, shrugged, and jumped in after her…and thus our story begins….
===
She heard the noise of chanting and knew that evil was going on somewhere in the labyrinth. "We have to follow it, Gourry. That could be a cult or some sort that worships monsters and evil."
"What if it's actually a monster performing a ceremony to sacrifice Filia, Xelloss, Zel, Lina, and Syphiel?" asked Gourry as he tasted the walls and sniffed around, "What's that smell?"
Amelia sighed. "Don't be ridiculous, Gourry. What are the odds of that actually happening?… I have no idea what that smell is…"
===
They found the source of the noise after a few hours of aimless searching. Luckily, with this "===" time can fly by without anyone noticing.
Amelia pressed herself against the wall and peeked over the corner. She saw her friends and the guys in a small room. Zel and Lina were stuck in a cage; both of them appeared to be asleep with Zelgidss' pants MISSING IN ACTION?!?! Amelia blushed scarlet at the scene. "Zelgadiss! I thought you loved me!!" She turned away and saw Filia and Xelloss bound together by rope and Syphiel swinging over a large pot in the center of the room.
On the ground stood a small little bunny about the size of one's foot. It's nose twitched slightly as it hopped over to a table. Amelia's heart grew soft as she entered the room. "Ohhhhhh, a little bunny." She bent over the soft bunny and pet it behind the ears. The bunny, scared, hopped out of Amelia's hands, hid behind the pot, and winked.
"Amelia! What are you doing here?" Syphiel asked from the ceiling. She swung like a pendulum but didn't seem to mind.
Gourry stepped into the room and grinned sheepishly at the group. "We came to rescue you, but it looks like you're having a party."
Syphiel paled at the sight of Gourry. She closed her eyes and frowned. Ms. Lina likes Gourry--de--no. Mr. Gourry. "This isn't a party, Gourry-dear, we're all going to die because of that bunny."
Amelia laughed as she picked up the little fluff ball. She ran her hand along the soft pink fur. "Ha! This? This couldn't hurt a fly!" Suddenly, the bunny's mouth grew wide and bit down on Amelia's hand!
Amelia dropped the pink thing, and screamed "SON OF A BIT--"
"Tsk, Tsk, Amelia. You shouldn't use that type of diction at that age," Xelloss said from the corner.
Filia, in a flat toneless voice, said, "Please stop talking." She turned to Amelia. "Make him stop talking." She turned back to Xelloss. "Why didn't you stop talking?"
Amelia nursed her hand and ran after the bunny. "You're going to pay for that! That was so unjust! I just wanted to pet you!"
The bunny hopped away. It wagged it's cute little cotton tale at the young girl and said, "Hi! How are you!"
Amelia stopped in her tracks. "Did it just talk?"
Syphiel nodded. "Yes, but those are the only words it can say."
Filia turned to Gourry. "You've been standing there for a full thirty minutes. Why haven't you untied us yet?"
Gourry suddenly began to move. "OH YEA! That's what I should do." He moved around the room, untying Xelloss and Filia and Syphiel. As soon as Syphiel was untied, she blushed and hopped away from Gourry. Gourry stopped in front of Zel and Lina's cage.
He tried to undo the lock, but nothing happened. "How do I get through this?"
The crowd shrugged as the bunny said, "Hi! How are you?"
"I'm fine, thank you." Gourry replied.
Syphiel shook the dizziness from her head. Glancing at Lina's unconscious body, she frowned. But, this is Lina's chance. She can be carried off in the arms of the one she loves. Syphiel aimed her hands at the lock and said, "FREEZE ARROW!"
A small little magic thing flew toward the lock, did a 270, and flew into Amelia's eye. "AH! MY EYE!"
"Sorry!" Syphiel squawked and hid behind Filia.
Gourry walked up to Amelia and began to flick her eye with his finger. "Does this hurt?"
Amelia frowned. "Sadly, no."
"Hi! How are you?"
Amelia turned to the bunny, feeling in a fowl mood.
"OH NO!" cried Xelloss. "The bunny has completed it's chant!"
"WHAT?!" The group yelled.
As the were yelling, the bunny turned into a large monster and began to do a little dance.
"What in CEIPHIED'S NAME IS GOING ON?!"
Xelloss started to run followed by Filia, Amelia, Syphiel, and Gourry who was carrying the cage with Zel and Lina in it. "That bunny is the Legendary Bunny of KNARF! It chants something to make a sacrifice of it's captors. It can even hypnotize people into doing what it wants!" He turned to Syphiel and Filia. "That's why I attacked you. It was the bunny's fault and my own perverted pleasure that did this!"
"I've never heard of that before!" Filia screamed from behind.
"No one has! It was only suppose to be a legend!"
"What? You're perverted pleasure?" Gourry asked, beads of sweat falling down his head.
"NO! THE WORLD KNOWS ABOUT THAT!"
And as with every chase sequence in the world, one person trips over an unseen rock on the ground. Sadly, the floor is tiled, but someone still trips. That person will be…..
Kept secret until the next chapter!
