Chapter Four

Kit: Hi! I'm Kit!

Kat: And I'm Kat!

Kit: And you're watching RITS!

Kat: Really Insane Talk Show!

Kit: Now, today we have a rather special show, because our contest winner, Essie Aster, is going to be here, with her favourite character, Boba Fett!

*Crowd whoops and cheers, and a loud whistle is heard*

Kit: Okay, WHO DID THAT? FESS UP NOW, AND I JUST MIGHT SPARE YOUR LIFE!

Kat: Kit... calm...

Kit: I - CAN'T - TAKE - IT - ANY - MORE! I'M GETTING OUT!

*Kit runs off set with her hands over her ears, lalalalalaing loudly*

Kat: O...k... well, seeing as Kit has gone insane, I'll need a temporary host. *summons Legolas and seats him in Kit's chair*

Legolas: What... am... I... doing... here?

Kat: You're my co-host till Kit becomes uninsane.

Legolas: *pff* Like that'll ever happen.

Kat: *smacks Legolas over the head with his bow* She will become...less insane than she is now, then.

Legolas: *rubs head* Owwww....

Kat: OKAY! Time to get this show going. I now present to you... Essie Aster!

*a confused girl steps onto the set*

Legolas: Can I leave?

Kat: NO!

Essie Aster: What am I doing here?

Kat: You won our contest.

Essie Aster: Ohhh.... Cool!

Kat: So, Essie - I can call you Essie, right?

Essie Aster: Uh... I--

Kat: Good. So who's your favourite character?

Essie Aster: Boba Fett.

Legolas: What kind of a name is Boba Fett?

Essie Aster: What kind of a name is Legolas?

Legolas: *pulls out bow and sets an arrow to shoot*

Kat: Hey, hey, save it for later guys, this isn't Jerry Springer.

Legolas: Yeah, whatever. *draws arrow tighter*

Kat: Okay, NO SHOOTING THE GUESTS!

Legolas: Just one shot *puppy eyes* please.

Kat: Must...resist....cuteness!!!!!!!!! *covers her eyes*

Legolas: Kaaaaaattttt.....

Kat: Yes? *eyes still covered*

Legolas: Kaaaatttt....

Kat: WHAT!?!?!?!

Legolas: Can I please shoot her?

Kat: NO! That's final!

Legolas: Fine. *crosses his arms over his chest and pouts*

Kat: Aww, poor widdle Legsie...

Legolas: *Draws another arrow*

Kat: Okay, that's it. If you can't play nice, then I'm afraid I'll have to confiscate your little toy. *snatches bow and arrows from Legolas, and uses the Force to give then to a guy off set, who seals them in a barrel*

Legolas: HEY! MY BOW AND ARROW!!!!!

Kat: Sorry, but it had to be done. You might have hurt someone!

Legolas: THAT'S THE POINT!

Kat: As much as I'd love to continue this little chat with you, we really must be getting on with the show. So, heeeeeeere's Boba Fett!

*a dude in armour walks in, looking as dazed and confused as a guy can look when his face is hidden by a funky helmet*

Boba: What am I doing here?

Kat: You're the third person who's asked that so far. YOU'RE ON RITS, AND YOU'RE HERE TO BE TALKED AT.

Boba: Talked at? *pulls out a blaster* Nobody talks at Boba Fett!

Kat: *sighs* What is WITH you people today? All violent and aggressive. Sheesh. Whatever happened to a nice "Glad to be here"?

Legolas: Maybe we're NOT glad to be here.

Boba: Yeah, really.

Kat: Tough. If you're not glad to be here, why ARE you here?

Legolas: You won't let me leave.

Boba: And a herd of super-evil-hypnotic-plaid-scottish-cows-with-automatic-smoothie-making-machines-and-high-tech-propellors-strapped-to-their-backs are chasing me.

Kat: Super-evil-hypnotic-plaid-scottish-cows-with-automatic-smoothie-making-machines-and-high-tech-propellors-strapped-to-their-backs? That can only mean one thing!

Legolas: Six more weeks of winter?

Kat: Uh... that too. But, where there's super-evil-hypnotic-plaid-scottish-cows-with-automatic-smoothie-making-machines-and-high-tech-propellors-strapped-to-their-backs, there's usually...

Kit: HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!! *waves furiously at everyone present, smiling a smile that makes your face hurt just to look at it.

Kat: KIT!

Kit: KAT!

Boba: FORCE, NOT HER!

Legolas: *rubs head (sorry, bit of an inside joke. Couldn't resist ^_^)* Oh no...

Kit: Legolas! HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! *hugs Legolas*

Kat: Hey! Remember the contract?

Kit: Oh yeah. But is hugging him against the contract? I'm happy to see him! Last time I saw him, he was unconscious in that purple dome in my head ^_^

Legolas: *shudders* I NEVER want to go there again.

Kit: BOBO!

Boba: It's BOBA. Say it right, its not that complicated.

Kit: Sure thing, Bo

Boba: It's BOBA

Kit: Yeah, whatever you say, Mr Fett.

Kat: Feeling better, Kit?

Kit: Yes, thank you, I'm a lot better. I had a can of lemonade ^_^

Kat: Oh no...

Kit: *hiccups* YUP! And, while I was lying in a giggling heap outside the apothecary--

Kat: There's an apothecary in town?

Kit: Yeah, you know. The place where they keep all the rabid squirrels until the government grants them better health care ^_^

Kat: Ugh... You sure you only had ONE can of lemonade? And what were you doing with the stuff anyway? You know what it does to you!

Kit: ^_^ I know! And I only had one can, honest!

Kat: Suuuuuuuuuure.

Kit: Yeah, whatever, Anywayz, I was lying there laughing, when I saw this brilliant flash of light--

Legolas: Was it your brain short-circuiting?

Kit: Close. When I could see again, I noticed that it was a tall dude with a highly polished head!

Kat: *gasp* You don't mean--

Kit: Yes...

Legolas: What?

Kit: *Runs off stage then runs back on, dragging a tall Jedi dude with a highly polished head* Say hi to Macey!

Boba: You!

Mace: Boba... I am your Father!

Boba: No, YOU KILLED MY DADDY! *starts to cry*

Kit: Aww, poor, poor Bobbers. *hugs Boba* Wanna come visit the purple dome in my head?

Boba: *sniff* Uh huh...

Legolas: NO! DON'T FOLLOW HER!!!

Kit: FIELD TRIP!!!!

Legolas: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Anakin: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Kat: Where'd you come from?

Kit: ANI! *huggles Ani*

Anakin: *is being crushed* Blonde guy! Help me!

Legolas: *looks at Anakin like he's crazy* You're gonna need the Jaws of Life to get her off you.

Kat: Kit... shouldn't we interview Boba now?*

Kit: Wha? Oh, yeah. The Bobmister.

Boba: IT'S BOBA!

Kit: I really couldn't care less, Booboo.

Boba: *mutters* It's Boba.

Kat: Sure, Bobo.

Legolas: Lighten up Bobbers.

Kit: ^_^

Anakin: Hey, I got a question for Bob, were you emotionally scarred for life when you saw your dad's head cut off? And why did you take his suit! Dude! That's wrong!

Boba: This isn't his suit. I duplicated it, cuz I liked the style. And yes, I've been scarred for life. *bursts into tears*

Kat: Poor Bobo.

Kit: Hey, whatever happened to the field trip?

Kit and Kat: TO THE FREAKMOBILE!

Legolas: This can't be good....

Kat: *grabs Legolas* Let's go!

*everyone piles into a large tie-dye painted bus, and it is flown to a place far away, but close by...*

Kat: WE'RE HERE!

Kit: WHEEEEEEEE! *runs around the purple dome in her head*

Legolas: It looks like....space.

Kit: Oh-- *claps hands*

*lights turn on and they can see the transparent purple dome, which they are within*

Everyone: Ooo...

Kit: ^_^

Kat: KIT! Watch this! *snaps fingers and two cases of lemonade and root beer appear*

Kit: YAY! *starts guzzling root beer and lemonade*

Kat: *whispers* Anakin, watch this. *snaps her fingers again and brings a mime into Kit's pop. the mime pops out of Kit's pop can, right in front of her face*

Kit: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!!!! *scrambles backward and curls up in a ball, eyes screwed up in fear*

Kat: *snaps fingers and the mime turns into a little bug. Steps on the bug* I am sorry Kit.

Kit: OKAY! heeheeheeheeheehee...

Anakin: *laughing so hard he is crying*

Kat: *glares at Anakin*

Kit: Oh dear. We'd better get started on the questions before I go totally nutso.

Kat: Yeah. *pulls a slip of paper out of her pocket* Oh! yaebginn had a question for Boba. He wants to know if his suit has a place where he can pee.

Boba: No I do not have a place to pee, which is why I do not drink a lot. It takes a long time to take off the suit.

Kat: Someone's moody.....

Boba: Because I don't want to be here!

Anakin and Legolas: Join the club.

Kit: TO BAD! YOU'RE STUCK HERE! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!

Anakin, Boba and Legolas: O.o

Kat: Legolas, I thought you liked me?

Legolas: You're a freak!

Kat: THANK YOU! *hugs Legolas*

Kit: ^_^ Awww, it's a Kodak moment! *takes out camera and takes picture. flash blinds everyone present*

Anakin: My eyes! My poor eyes!

Kit: I can't seee!!!! A-WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! *spins rapidly and crashes into a wall* Ow... heeheehee...

Kat: *sits on her spinny computer chair and starts spinning rapidly* Wooo hooo!!!

Legolas, Anakin, Kit and Boba: *watch Kat spin, their heads following her* Whoa.....

Kit: FUNFUN!!! LEMME TRY!

Kat: NO WAY! GET YOUR OWN SPINNY COMPUTER CHAIR!

Kit: Well you don't have to be so rude about it. *crouches in the corner, muttering about "the precious"*

Kat: I'm sorry! *hands Kit a nice big cushy spinny chair*

Kit: YAY!

Kit and Kat: *spin around in their chairs* Wheee!

Legolas, Anakin and Boba: *run for the door*

Kit: HEY!

Kat: Come back!

*Legolas, Boba and Anakin try to force their way out the door, until they realize the door is just a bunch of lines crayoned on the wall.*

Legolas: There's no escape! *drops on his knees and sobs madly*

Kat: Awww poor Legolas. *hugs Legolas*

Legolas: *hugs Kat* maybe this isn't so bad....

Anakin: OH NO! They've brainwashed him!

Boba: We gotta get out of here!

Anakin: Help me, Boba Fett. You're my only hope.

Boba: O.o

Kit: ^_^ LETS ALL PLAY STAR WARS!

Anakin: What?

Kit: I don't seem to remember ever owning a droid.

Anakin: That's cause no dealer in their right mind would sell you one.

Kat: *is suddenly wearing one of Padmé's priddy gowns* Priddy! *dances around in the priddy gown*

Kit: *Is dressed up like Han Solo* YAY! TAKE THAT, REBEL SCUM!

*Kit and Kat look around at everyone.*

Kat: Aw, come on guys. You can't play Star Wars dressed like that!

*Kit and Kat spin rapidly, and everyone is dressed up in rather... unfitting outfits*

Legolas: *is wearing a storm trooper outfit* My hair! My hair! *rips off the helmet, only to find his perfect hair, as always, perfect*

Anakin: *looks in a mirror* Hey! MY hair! *is dressed up like Princess Leia in A New Hope* It looks so...

Boba: Tasty! *tries to take a bite out of Anakin's hair*

Anakin: Hey! Watch it! Or I might not give you Han Solo for your boss!

Kit: Thanks, Ani! You saved me!

Anakin: What? NOOO! *shoves Kit at Boba* Take her!

Kat: *still wearing one of Padmé's priddy orangy yellow gowns* This is fun! *twirls around and her hair is suddenly like Padmé's hairstyle* Wowsers!

Boba: OH no, you wanted to keep her so bad, she's yours! Plus... *is dressed up like Darth Maul* I don't think Sith work for Hutts.

Mace: Uh...

Kit:: Macey! I'd forgotten about you!

Mace: Everyone does.

Kat: *laughs hysterically*

Mace: *teeth clenched* Its - not - funny! *is dressed up like Yoda, green construction paper ears taped to his head*

Legolas: *in corner, with his helmet on the ground, brushing his hair in front of a mirror* My hair...my precious hair....

Kat: *still twirling around in Padmé's gown*

*suddenly Padmé appears, in a pair of fuzzy pajama pants, a tank top and bunny slippers*

Padmé: I believe that is my gown.

Kat: I'm wearing it.

Padmé: Well I wanna!

Kat: You have 50 bizillion gowns, choose another one!

Padmé: Well I want that one!

Kat: You're not Queen anymore, girly! You can't boss ME around!

Padmé: Oh yeah?

Kat: YEAH!

Padmé: Yeah?

Kat: Yeah!

Padmé: Well... well... *starts to cry and runs out the door*

Kat: HA!

Anakin: Padmé! *tries to run after he but the door is suddenly crayon lines again* Son of a Sith!

Kit and Kat: *gasp*

Legolas: Watch your language around the ladies!

Anakin: Know what, Blondie? I don't care! I don't care if your hair is messed. I don't care if I swore at them. I DON'T CARE IF MACE SINGS AN IRISH DITTY! I WANT OUT OF HERE! I need to comfort my Padmé!

Mace: *sings* In Dublin's fair city, where girls are so pretty...

Kit: *is suddenly dressed like a leprechaun and starts dancing an Irish dance* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT MOLLY MALONE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THAT SONG SCARES ME! YET I STILL DANCE TO IT! I'M SCARED OUT OF MY WHITS, YET I STILL DRESS UP LIKE A LEPRECHAUN AND SING! GO FIGURE! LALALA!

*the song goes on for awhile...*

Mace: *finishing up the song* And her ghost wheels the barrow through the streets broad and narrow cryin' cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh!

Kit: *screams and dances around the dome*

Anakin: *on the ground crying*

Legolas: *bobbing his head to the song*

Kat: *twirling in the dress* It looks so priddy!

*cut to Padmé's house where she is trying to find another dress to wear. cut back to Kit and Kat*

Legolas: *looks up from the corner* Sorry to interrupt, but isn't this supposed to be a talk show? I mean, aren't we supposed to be interviewing Boba?

Kit: You're right! We are! I guess we were having so much fun we plum forgot! Essie! Anything you wanna ask Boba?

*they look around and notice that Essie Aster is nowhere in sight*

Anakin: Wha... where'd she go?

*laughter is heard. They look out the transparent dome walls to see Essie Aster outside waving*

*Boba, Anakin and Legolas stand up, shocked*

Legolas: Wha...? HOW DID SHE GET OUT?! THERE'S NO DOOR!

*Essie turns to leave*

Boba: NOOOOO! *runs up to the non-existent door, slams up against it and sticks* YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE ME HERE! TAKE ME WITH YOU!! PLEASE!

Anakin: *curled up in a ball, muttering insanely* No escape... no escape... death... pain... insanity... PASTRIES!

Kit: Kat... maybe we shouldn't give readers cameos. I think it goes to our heads.

Kat: I think you're right *twirls around in the dress* Think we should let Boba go?

Kit: Are you kidding? We haven't finished interrogating him yet! And he looks SOOOOOO CUTE in that Darth Maul outfit!

Boba: I - AM - NOT - CUTE. I - AM - THE - MOST - DANGEROUS - MAN - IN - THE - GALAXY!

Anakin: Awwwwww.... Why couldn't I be the most dangerous man in the galaxy?

Boba: You're not all powerful.

Anakin: Well I should be. Some day I will be. I will even learn to stop people from dying!

Legolas: Whoa. someone's a little angst-y today

Anakin: *uses the Force to choke Legolas*

Kat: LEGOLAS! *uses the Force to throw Anakin backwards*

*Legolas falls down to the ground, gasping for breath. Kat runs to his side*

Kat: Legolas... My Legolas...

Legolas: It's too late... it's...

Kat: No!

Legolas: Kat, promise... promise me you'll train the boy...

Kat: Yes, Master.

Legolas: He is the Chosen One... he will bring balance... train him...

*Legolas falls back and lies still*

Kat: *whispers* No... Legolas... *cries*

Kit: *pokes Legolas* Chill, he's just asleep.

Kat: What?

Legolas: *snores*

Kat: Why, that little... *slaps Legolas round the face*

Legolas: *wakes up* OW! What was that for?!

Kat: For putting me through such trauma. I thought you were dead!

Legolas: Cool!

Kat: *glares*

Legolas: I... I mean, not cool. Very not cool. I'm sorry, Kat.. *hugs Kat*

Kat: YAY!

Legolas: So am I forgiven?

Kat: Yup!

Legolas: Great. So, can I go now?

Kat: *laughs hysterically* Nope, Legolas, you're stuck with me for a long time.

Legolas: *groans*

Kat: What was that?

Legolas: I said, uh, "yippee"?

Kat: That's better.

Boba: Can I pleeeeease leave?

Kit: Sure.

Boba: :-D YAY!

Kit: Right after we ask you a few either/or questions, since we don't have much time left.

Boba: Ask away!

Kit: Alright. We will give you two options, and I want you to pick the one you like the most. Okay?

Boba: Yeah, sure, go ahead.

Kit: Gruel or porridge?

Boba: Porridge.

Kat: Butterflies or ponies?

Boba: Butterflies.

Anakin: Blaster or lightsaber?

Boba: Blaster.

Kit: Cocoa or coffee?

Boba: Neither. I told you, I try not to drink stuff.

Kit: Oh yeah. Pink or purple?

Boba: Pink. Pink's priiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiddy.

Anakin: Boxers or briefs?

Boba: Um... that's a very personal question... I'd prefer not to answer it.

Anakin: No problem.

Legolas: Half ponytail or pig-tails?

Boba: Pig-tails.

Legolas: Okey-dokey! *takes out mirror and fiddles with his hair*

Kat: Okay, Kit, I think it's about time we let Bobbers go. We're almost out of time.

Kit: Awwww...

Boba: Yes!

Legolas: Please.

Anakin: *eyes shut tight* There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place like home.

Kit: *pouts* Oh, okay. *stands motionless*

Legolas: I thought you were gonna let us leave!

Kit: Look around you, genius.

*they are back in the studio*

Anakin: FREEDOM!!!! *runs off set, yelling about a permanent vacation*

Boba: C'I go too?

Kat: Sure.

Boba: YES! *turns on his rocket pack and flies away*

Legolas: What about me?

Kat: I've got something... special in mind for you...

Legolas: *gulps*

*cuts to a shot of Legolas trying to teach Kat archery*

Legolas: OW!

Kat: SORRY!

Kit: OW!

Kat: SORRY!

Kit: *rubbing her arm* We should probably end the show before you hurt yourself.

Kat: OW!

Legolas: Too late.

Kit: I meant, we should leave before those medics come back.

Kat: Good idea. OW!

Kit: Well, here ends another episode of RITS.

Kat: Really Insane Talk Sh-- OW!

Kit: I'm Kit

Kat: And I'm K--

Legolas: AAAAA! *ducks*

Kit: Thanks for watching!

Kat: Bye!

*Show ends with a shot of Legolas crouched on the floor, Kit nursing her wounds, and Kat aiming another arrow. shot fades out*

Legolas: OW!

A/N - Kit: :-D 'nother chappie finished! If you have any questions for Padmé and her handmaidens and Dormé and Cordé, send 'em to KitandKat@proud2beafreak.zzn.com.
