Just when you think I haven't thought up another strange reason to
celebrate, I find myself getting overexcited for today's chapter, which
is... chapter 15!!! Oh yeah!! Do the monkey! ::does the monkey dance::
Cosmo: "Yay monkey!!" ::joins in::
... yeah, that's about it yes... and now for the chappy presentation!
Disclaimer: I reckon ya'll should read the past 14 chapters, 'cuz ya'll know I'll just say the same thing, partners. ((my apologies... since I saw the "Ballad of Little Joe" I've kinda been on the 'western' spirit lately))
-------------------------------------- Part 15
"Hello!" Sparkle flew up and waved her hand in front of Jedi's face. The (proxy) Fate was completely motionless. She blinked twice and rubbed her eyes, realizing she had been staring at the fairies' wands.
"Buzz off!" she said attempting to swat the fairy. Sparkle shrieked and hid behind Timmy. "Jeez, have some respect! I do hold all of your lives in my hand, after all!" Jedi said over-dramatically.
Cosmo stared at her for awhile.
"I don't see them..." he said.
"Oh, cripes! You know what I mean!" she shot back. "Erm... does he?" she said to Wanda.
Wanda just shrugged. "Sometimes..."
Cosmo yawed. "When are we getting to the point, Wanda?" he asked.
"In a moment, honey," she responded taking the wand out in plain sight and making sure Sparkle did not see it. "Jedi? Listen, how about you let us go-- no strings attached, and I'll give you the wand," she said.
Jedi hesitated.
"Come on! You know you want to..." Cosmo sing-songed with a smile. "We ALL know you do..."
The (proxy) Fate bit her nails, looking at each one of them. Peer- pressure... was getting to her head. Oh, but the magical power she could have and just give it up for a pat on the back by the scissors-bearing trio? No way! She had to have that wand! But how?? The Grim Reaper would not be happy if he'd find out the group was set free at the fault of Jedi.
"You!" she bellowed and pointed at Timmy.
"M-me?"
"Yes, you!"
"What about me?" Cosmo said, waving to her. "I'm here, too!"
Jedi ignored him and turned to Timmy.
"You . . . . . are human!"
"Yes. I know that." Timmy said a little annoyed.
"Wanda, take us to the fields," Jedi instructed.
"My magic doesn't work down here," Wanda said.
"Well, it does now. But just this once! Don't try any funny stuff!"
"Like this?" Cosmo turned into a clown and smooshed a cream pie at Timmy's face. Timmy tried to wipe it off, Wanda buried her head in her hands and Jedi sweatdropped. Rick and Spark couldn't help but sincker.
"Just take us to the field before I disentigrate you and your husband." Jedi said to Wanda through clenched teeth.
Too afraid to object, Wanda swinged her wand and transported them to a grassy field. Her strength gave away and she collapsed. The same way it took alot of magic to get a kid into Fairy World, it sure could fatigue any fairy to transport three magical creatures, a kid and a semi-goddess out of such a powerful place as Limbo.
"Alright," Timmy said looking around. "What's the point of this again?"
"A race," Jedi simply answered.
"A race..." Timmy repeated. "And that would accomplish what?"
"This is something plain and simple, even for you. One itty-bitty race to that rock... you win and I spare all of you. PLUS, I get that wand."
"And if I lose... we stay?"
Jedi nodded. "PLUS, I still get that wand."
Wanda looked a little upset at the deal, but she didn't argue. She would do anything right then just to get out of this mess and making sure Timmy was not hurt in any way. "Yeah, sure. Whatever," she answered.
"Oh boy! A race!" Sparkle said perking up once again. "Don't worry, kid with the pink hat! You can do it, or your name isn't Jimmy Turner!"
"It's Timmy!" Timmy called out.
"Whatever! Good luck!"
"Ok!" Timmy stood in a starting position. "Where do we head to?"
"That rock over there," Jedi said nodding to the direction. Timmy looked and saw about 5 of them.
"Which one?" he asked.
"It's . . . . . that one!!!" she said quickly and broke into a sprint to the rock. Timmy stood there with his mouth open for a second, and then sprinted after Jedi. At the end, she got there first. Timmy huffed and puffed as he leaned against the stone, angrily glaring at Jedi.
"That wasn't fair! You cheated!" he said.
"All's fair when I say so!" she said smiling. "And I say that it's fair!"
"Really? Then I'm sure you wouldn't mind considering a rematch to... that rock!" he said running as fast as his legs could take him (which wasn't very fast) to another rock. But thanks to his head-start and the fact that Jedi was extremely tired, by the time she got there, Timmy was sitting atop of the stone reading a magazine.
"What took ya?" he said with a grin. "You know, for being a goddess - or in your case, a proxy goddess - I would have expected something more challenging. I mean, I may look small but I'm more capable than you think."
Jedi turned red in the face, looking like she was about to burst with anger. Then she suddenly softened and sighed.
"Uh... best two out of three?" she said smiling nervously.
"Gee, lemme think... no! You said anything goes and I say the race is over."
You'd think the semi-goddess would have been outraged to lose to a 10-year- old boy... and she was. You'd think she was sure she was going to win 100%... and she was. Was, at least. And you'd think that she'd go ballistic and shred them all to pieces and ignore what she promised. Well...
Jedi fell on her knees and started to cry like a little girl, taking everyone present by surprise.
"Who am I kidding?! I'll never be good enough to be a great evil villian!"
"Well, that's your problem..." Rick said to her. "You ARE good enough. Good enough to not be bad, if you know what I mean."
"My plans suck! My life sucks! And I bet my death will, too! The Grim Reaper won't take this kindly!"
"Well, for consolation, you can still keep the wand..." Wanda said.
"It's not the same!!" Jedi whined. "But I promised, so I guess I have to let you go..."
Wanda held out her wand sadly.
Jedi sniffled. "For me? I shouldn't... I-I couldn't..." she snatched the wand quickly. "GIMME THAT!" she held it in her hands gleefully. "Oooh! Finally! I've got the power!"
"Umm, Ma'am? About our release?" Timmy said.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah... just a moment," Jedi said clutching the wand trying to figure out how it works.
------------------------------------------
They're FREE!! I think... Well, the (proxy) Fate surely wasn't what she expected herself to be. Now, I must leave you, because I smell pasta coming from the kitchen... Until the next update! Adiós! (which means goodbye!)
