Insanity on the Set, Please by NachoManLance

Disclaimer: Alas, Love Hina is not mine. Damnation!

Note: YES! Finally got the Spring Movie special, I barely even had enough energy writing this after watching that and Spaceballs twice. I had a Spaceballs/LH crossover idea afterwords, but I think I'd scare everyone off...oh well, just a thought.

Chapter Four: Whats Worse than Hell? Sarah on the Loose

"All right," said Keitaro after two days of damage control from Kentaro's very crappy movie era, "We lost a lot of time, so we're gonna work extra hard. Everyone get to their places, we're doing scene three!"

The rest nodded in agreement, and left to do their appropriate tasks for scene three. In that scene, the evil sorcerer Lancelot had captured Princess Naru, and the two hand-maidens Shinobu and Kitsune summoned the head knight of their kingdom, Lord Talon of Hinata.

With their places set, Keitaro motioned to Haitani and Shirai, "Is everything ready to go?"

"Everything except the camera," said Shirai, "I don't know what this red button does."

Haitani looked at the camera and whacked Shirai hard upside the head, "Thats the recording, idiot."

"All right, do your stuff Su!"

"Scene Three, Take 1, Marker!

"Action!"

Some dramatic backround music had played while Shinobu, Talon and Kitsune ran through tjeir scene.

"What is it you have summoned me for, my fair ladies?" said Talon graciously as he bowed at the two.

"Lord Talon of Hinata," said Shinobu, "We have summoned you before us to save our kingdom."

"Yeah," Kitsune added, "Princess Naru of Hinata has been kidnapped by the evil sorcerer Lancelot and has held her hostage in his fortress beyond the.....the,....."

"CUT!" Keitaro megaphone-ed. "What is it Kitsune? Lost your line?"

"More like her brain,.." Talon muttered under his breath.

"Yeah, I can't seem to remember my next lines."

Keitaro sighed in disbelief. Kentaro must've done a big impact on their morale. He will have to get him back for that.

"All right," he megaphoned to everyone, "Let's all take 5 to practice. And Shinobu, would you mind bringing us some tea?"

"Of course." And with a gentle smile the resident picker-upper left to the kitchen.

"Maaannn, there has got to be some food left here.." Lance searched the cupboards in hopes for some decent food.

It wasn't that he hated Shinobu's cooking, in fact he didn't hate anything about her. In another fact (just like everyone else) he had fallen under her expertise spell and never had any wrongs against it. The only problem was, Japan had very little, and I emphasize 'little', Mexican food around, and if any it was terrible. Sometimes, he had been left by himself to experiment the goods around the kitchen to make anything that was even remotely tasted like nachos. It was dark times for the new tenant indeed, and even now he had forgotten how much he loved the taste, smell, and spice he had loved so long ago,.... well, three months to be exact.

"I swear, once Mexico develops a good economy in the next hundred or so years, this place will be stacked with tacos!" Lance cursed under his breath. But then a new voice broke in and startled him.

"Are you looking for something?"

He turned so fast it almost made Shinobu laugh,... almost. Lance met eye contact with her, and suddenly couldn't get out of it. He stared dreamily into those deep blue eyes and pretended as if he were trapped in them, never to leave. He always did this, every time he saw her in school, walking down the stairs, cooking in the kitchen, he never left his eyes off her that even sometimes Talon had to bash his head onto the table or anything nearest to him to snap out of it. But there was no one around this time.

"I....I...." Lance muttered, not able to finish. With her gentle smile Shinobu asked,

"Looking for some more Mexican?

"I KNEW YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND!!"

Back on the stage five minutes later, everyone was movie ready and in heir places. They solved the script problem by adding in a few extra lines to make it easier. At last Keitaro cried the famous Hollywood word,

"Action!"

"What is it you have summoned me for, fair ladies?" Talon did his bow.

"Lord Talon of Hinata," said Shinobu, "We have summoned you to save our kingdom from great peril! Princess Naru was captured by the evil sorcerer Lancelot and has her hostage in his fortress."

"Where is this fortress you speak of?" Talon said in a serious tone.

"Beyond the Forbidden Swamplands of Baka," said Kitsune, "It will not be an easy journey, Lord Talon."

Lord Talon stood and said in a tremendous voice, "No matter! I will do anything to save the Hinata Kingdom and rescue our fair Princess Naru, at any-WAAAHHHH!!!"

The scene was cut short as soon as Sarah McDougal had launched a kick to Talon's shin. Talon, not expecting this attack, let loose a string of curses and swears under his breath.

"Sarah!" cried Su, "You made it just in time!"

"CUT! Sarah, what are you doing here?" Keitaro was beet red with annoyance.

"Papa dropped me of here for a couple weeks remember?" Sarah laughed and punched Keitaro on the left cheek, "Glad I'm back, dork?"

"Always a pleasure,.." Keitaro said through clenched teeth.

Sarah peered around the set, "Making a movie?"

"Yeah," said Su, "Keitaro here is shooting a video project for class and we're all in it!"

"Ooh, Keitaro can be in it? I have always dreamed for stardom, it's like a dream come true for me!" Sarah took the dreamy expression she always used to get the things she wanted. Unfortunetly, no one could escape.

"Agh, fine then," fessed up Keitaro, "I'll make you the bad guy's hench-woman."

"What, I'm a bad guy?" Sarah pouted.

"The bad guy is Lance."

Sarah changed her mood in an instant. She had always had a crush on Lance ever since her first came to the apartments, and she made it her duty to get close to him at any possible chance.

"Oh really!? I'm in!" She ran over to Lance (who tried to find a new hiding spot) and clung onto him reaalll tight.

"We're gonna be bad guys together, isn't that great Lance?" she said with her dreamy expression.

"I,...that is,..get off me please before I choke!"

After much truggle he managed to pull free from her 'clutches' and ran into Talon.

"Can't get her hands of you can she?" he teased with a smirk.

".....When I find a way, I will personally make sure I will hurt you."

NEXT TIME: Mutsumi makes her appearance by bringing the ordered props for the movie, and Sarah is still love-stricken for 'Bad Guy' Lance. What more chaos could possibly happen on our unlucky apartment manager?.....
