Title: Slayers Rhapsody
Disclaimer: I own nothing in the story
A/N: This is just something that I forgot to mention earlier on. In Rhapsody Kururu was puppet and could fit on Cornet's shoulder. However, in my story, Amelia will be the same height as she always is and, even though Valgaav is playing a character that is female in the game he will still be male. The same goes for Xellos. :)
*After there explosive adventure in the Wonder Woods, Lina and the rest are back in Mothergreen and are sitting in front of the fountain*
Lina: Well, we're back to Mothergreen but I still don't have a dress. What should we do?
Zelgadis: ......................................
Lina: Oh come on. You can't still be mad at me. I healed you right back up.
Zelgadis: ....................................
Amelia: Miss Lina, I know that there aren't any dresses here but maybe we can find one in the next town?
Lina: Yeah, good idea Amelia. What do you think Zel?
Zelgadis: *Starts to snore and mutter to himself* Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, come on, come her cutie, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Lina: *A vein pops up, her face turns red, and with that she swiftly kicks Zelgadis off the bench* WHAT DID YOU SAY?
Zelgadis: Zzzzzzzzzzsnortzzzhuh? Lina calm yourself. I was sleepy and just fell asleep. It's because I haven't had my coffee yet. I was planning to get some at that restaurant over there but it appears that they're making repairs on it.
Amelia: Uh, Miss Lina.....
Lina: N, never mind that, let's just concentrate at the issue on hand.
Zelgadis: Very well.
Amelia: Um, Miss Lina, I heard that there's a Captain here that periodically sails to Bluecat.
Lina: Bluecat huh? It might be worth a shot to check out the stores there. Let's try and find out about that Captain.
*So Lina and friends went around asking various people about a ship to Bluecat. They finally managed to gain some info about where the Captain lived*
*In the Captain's House*
Lina: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU WON"T SAIL US TO BLUECAT? YOU'RE THE CAPTAIN, AREN'T YOU?
Amelia: Miss Lina please calm down. Yelling at the poor man won't solve anything.
Lina: Tsk. No but it will make me feel better.
Zelgadis: I'm sorry did you say something Amelia? I can't seem to hear to well after that yelling Lina did.
Amelia: Mr. Captain will you please tell us why you won't sail to Bluecat?
Captain: *He looks like he almost had a heart attack* U,um s-sure Miss. Oh, and you can call me Honar Well, you see, my daughter over there is engaged to a soldier and she seemed really happy, but then, just a few days ago, she quit eating and I'm very worried about her. Could you please help her?
Amelia: Oh that's so sad. What should we do Miss Lina?
Lina: Hmm, normally I wouldn't want to get involved like this, but my pride won't stand for me loosing to Naga. Ok then Honar, tell us how we can help.
Honar: Oh thank you. As I said before my daughter hasn't eaten in days, therefor I would like you to get her to eat.
Zelgadis: Get her to eat, huh? That doesn't sound to difficult. What does she like to eat?
Honar: Well her favorite food is BBQ Slugs so I'm sure if you got that for her she would be sure to eat it.
Amelia: BBQ......?
Lina: Sl-sl-sl-SLUG.....? You're joking, right? You have to be joking!
Honar: Not at all. My daughter especially likes the BBQ Slug dish from the Restaurant on the Lake. If you do this for me and manage to get my daughter to eat then I will be more then willing to take all of you to and from Bluecat whenever you want. Oh, and it would be free of course.
Lina: Look I don't really know about this but.... did you just say free?
Honar: Of course. So will you do it?
Lina: Oh it'll be no problem at all! Let's go get us a Slug guys!
Amelia: *Sigh* Oh boy, here we go again.
*Lina and friends leave the Captain's house an head over to the Restaurant on the Lake. Inside they discover that someone named "Burg" is the new chef. As they leave the restaurant they are suddenly spoken to by a strange guy*
Strange Guy: If you're looking for SLugs then you can find them at Natali's River. *And with that the strange guy leaves*
Lina: What a strange guy.
Zelgadis: True but he did tell us where we could find the Slugs.
Amelia: Come on Miss Lina. Let's hurry on over to Natali's River.
*Natali's River*
Lina: FIREBALL. There we go. Three nicely cooked Slugs.
Amelia: *Puts her hands together and closes her eyes* Oh burt Slugs truely do smell deliscious.
Zelgadis: Maybe to you, but I'm not so sure the Captain's daughter will feel the same way.
Amelia: Hmm I guess you're right. What should we do now Miss Lina?
Lina: Well, I guess we could...
* Lina is suddenly interrupted by three familiar voices*
Voice 1: I think I heard an explosion over here.
Voice 2: I think I smell some burnt Slugs over here.
Voice 3: I think it's coming from the river. Let's go check it out.
*Who should then appear but none other then the three feisty Nekos.
Nyanko: Oh no!
Nanako: Not them again!
Neko: Agh, it's the abominable Lina Inverse! RUN!
*And with that the three cats scurry*
Lina: Grrr, you really think I'm going to let you get away after saying that. After them guys.
*So over hill and over dale Lina, Amelia, and Zelgadis chased the Nekos through the Wonder Woods until they came too...*
*Burg's Restaurant*
Zelgadis: Oh great, not this place again.
Lina: Damn, I knew I had heard the name "Burg" before. But I'm not going to let that stop me from exacting my revenge. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Amelia: Miss Lina, don't laugh like that. It's really scaring me.
Zelgadis: Never mind that let's just hurry up and go inside. Since it's a restaurant now maybe they have some coffee.
*In the back of Burg's Restaurant*
Burg: Ha ha ha ha ha. No one will be able to beat me at the cooking competion once I present this BBQ Slug dish. People may have doubted me but I will truly be the next Iron Chef. Ha ha ha.
Lina: THERE YOU ARE YOU LITTLE RATS! NOW I'Ve GOT YOU!
Burg: Rats? Where? Huh?.... Agh, it's the abominable Lina Inverse! What is she doing here?
Nanako: I guess she followed us here.
Burg: Forget this. I don't need this kind of stress. I'm moving to Red Hot.
Neko: Wait for us boss.
*So Burg and the three Nekos ran like the wind out of there*
Lina: Heeeeeyyyyy. I didn't get to exact my revenge on you. Come back here.
Amelia: Never mind that Miss LIna. Look at what they were cooking. It's BBQ Slugs.
Zelgadis: Yeah and it looks a lot better then Lina's attempt.
Lina: Grr,watch it Zel. The cats got away and I'm still looking for an excuse to blast something.
Zelgadis: Whatever, let's just take this BBQ Slug dish with us. The Captain's daughter should like iy.
Lina: Fine, fine.
*Lina, Amelia, and Zelgadis return to Mothergreen, BBQ Slug dish in hand*
*Captain Honar's House*
Lina: Alright pops we got the dish.
Honar: Ahh, thank you. Now see if my daughter will eat it. Her name is Lila.
*Lina and friends walk over to the Captain's daughter*
Amelia: Miss Lila?
Lila: Oh, yes, and who might you be?
Zelgadis: Your father said that you haven't been eating lately and he's worried about you.
Lina: Yeah so eat this nice BBQ Slug dish so my friends and I can get to Bluecat.
Lila: Haven't been eating. It's true that I haven't been eating as much but I'm not starving myself. I've just been on a diet.
Amelia: A diet?
Lina: A diet! Why would you do something stupid like that?
Lila: Well, the other day my boyfriend said that I was, um, kind of, um,.... fat.
Amelia: How unjust. A person should love someone because of who they are on the inside, not their appearance on the outside.
Zelgadis:.............
Lina: I agree with Amelia. That guy so deserves a Fireball. Why don't we go have a little talking to with this guy of yours.
Lila: Ok but please don't hurt him... too much.
*Outside*
Zelgadis: So how are we going to find this guy?
Amelia: I suppose we could ask around.
*Once again that strange guy pops up*
Strange Guy: So, did the Captain's daughter enjoy the BBQ Slugs?
Lina: Well we never got a chance to... Hey, wait a minute. You're the boyfriend that she's talking about,aren't you?
Soldier Boyfriend: Yes, I am. My name is Kerel
Amelia: So you're the one who has her so upset. Evil villain I shall smight you with the Hammer of Justice! You who holds no mercy for the fat, bakeries will hold none for you!
Kerel: They won't....? Wait, what the hell are you talking about?
Zelgadis: Even I can't hand forgive someone who would call their girlfriend fat. Now face the fury of the Heartless Mystical Swordsman!
Kerel: Fat? But I never called Lila fat.
Lina: Oh yeah, then just what did you call her.
Kerel: I said that she had a full figure and was very feminine.
Zelgadis: Full figure?
Amelia: Feminine?
Lina: Ah, ha ha, oops. I think it's time we set things straight.
*Inside the Captain's House*
Lila: Oh, Kerel. I should have realized what you meant when you said full figured.
Kerel: I understand. next time I'll know to word my thoughts more carefully.
Lila: Darling!
Kerel: Sweety!
*Lina and friends try to dodge the little pink hearts flouting around as they talk to Captain Honar*
Lina: Well things might not have worked out the way they were planned, but I'd call this a success.
Zelgadis: So will you take us to Bluecat?
Honar: Of course, of course. Please let me know when you're ready. We can set sail for Bluecat at anytime.
*So Lina and friends head of to Bluecat. Hopefully they'll be able to find what they're looking for there*
A/N: So, what did you all think? Be sure to review and let me know. I think I might be on a roll here so I'll probably start workling on the next chapter pretty soon.
