Joyride (Hey Hasn't That Title Been Done Already?)
"So you guys actually have a real spaceship?" Amanda looked around. "Wow Kurt you told me the Misfits were…interesting but I had no idea how interesting. I mean I thought you were exaggerating!"
"With the Misfits involved very little exaggeration is required," Kurt grumbled as he turned off his holowatch to reveal his real self.
"This is going to be fun," Althea told them. "The four of us getting to know each other better!"
"I think Amanda and I know Toad better than we wish," Kurt said.
"Well I know we never really got along socially before," Todd said. "And I wanna start over and make it up my one slight little mistake to you."
"Toad you trashed my house," Amanda looked at him.
"Please one living room does not constitute and entire house," Todd told her. "Believe me I know. I've had a lot of experience at that sort of thing."
"He has," Kurt sighed. "You should have seen what he's done to the mansion a few times."
"Are you still miffed over the chandelier incident?" Todd asked. "So I accidentally wrecked it. That was a while ago?"
"It was last week!" Kurt snapped.
"Well at least it's nice to know he doesn't just do that at my house," Amanda rolled her eyes.
"The Professor nearly had a fit!" Kurt said. "That chandelier cost over ten thousand dollars!"
"Really?" Todd looked at him. "Man did he get hosed."
"So where do we want to go first?" Althea asked trying to change the subject.
"Well this is a spaceship right?" Kurt asked. "Can we go up high?"
"As high as you want Baby!" Althea laughed. "Hang on!"
They flew high into the stars. "Oh this is so cool!" Amanda squealed as she looked out the observation window. Althea turned off the gravity in the ship and they floated around. "Oh I love this! I feel like I'm flying!"
"Let's take a trip to the dark side of the moon!" Althea laughed. She parked the ship near the moon. "Some view huh?"
"Amazing," Kurt took Amanda in his arms and they looked at it.
"Oh this is so beautiful," Amanda whispered. "It's like a dream come true."
That's when they heard the sound of something zapping. "You mean a nightmare," Kurt sighed. He then saw Todd at the controls playing with the laser beam. "Toad what are you doing?"
"Ta Da!" Todd pointed to his creation on the moon's surface. It was a heart shape with the words TODD LOVES ALTHEA inside. "Proof that our love will last eternally."
"Now is my man a romantic or what?" Althea sighed.
"You carved graffiti on the moon?" Kurt gasped.
"Why not?" Todd looked at him. "Besides it's the other side of the moon, no one's ever going to notice. Not exactly a lot on the moon anyway. Wanna try?"
"No that's…" Kurt started to say something, then he looked at Amanda. "Uh…unless…"
"Well it would be kind of romantic," Amanda giggled.
"I suppose a little heart or something couldn't hurt," Kurt took the laser controls. "I mean you guys already wrecked it. How does this laser work?"
Soon there was another heart nearby with the words KURT AND AMANDA FOREVER inside. "I've heard of guys giving their girls the moon but this is unbelievable…" Amanda giggled. She kissed Kurt on the cheek.
"You still think this was a bad idea?" Todd snickered. "Hey let's go cruising some more!"
"You got it!" Althea took the controls and put the gravity back on again. "Hang on!" They zoomed around for a bit when suddenly they felt a bump. "What the…"
"Did we just hit something?" Kurt looked out the window. "We did! We just trashed a satellite!"
"Oh…" Althea looked on her scanners. "Oh its okay, its only the UPN satellite. No big loss."
"Serves 'em right for canceling Voyager and Buffy," Todd nodded. He looked at Kurt and Amanda's faces. "Oh yeah like you guys are huge Enterprise fans or something. I mean it's not like we hit a good station, like Cartoon Network."
"He's got a point there," Kurt said.
"Maybe we should go back to Earth?" Amanda suggested.
"Good idea," Althea nodded. She started to pilot the ship back.
"Wow I had no idea there were so many satellites on here," Amanda looked out the window.
"Hey there's a Cobra satellite," Althea pointed. "Hey anybody wanna try some target practice?"
"Let me try!" Kurt rubbed his hands together. He shot and the Cobra satellite exploded. "Bull's eye!"
"There's some more left," Todd took the controls. "Blast off!" He hit the button. Unfortunately he accidentally blasted something else "Oh man, I hit another satellite!"
"Toad that's not a satellite," Kurt winced.
"That's the Russian Space station," Althea told him. "Good news though you didn't hit anything vital. Just their communications antenna."
"Oops," Todd said. "Uh…I think we should head on back to Earth now."
"Way to go Toad!" Kurt groaned.
"Well look at the bright side," Althea said. "They won't blame mutants for this. They'll blame aliens instead."
So what happens when our merry group goes out for a bite to eat? You tell me! Keep those suggestions coming!
