Round About!
By ami_shadow
"Whoo. That was great," Rune said, pausing…
"Aww, crap, Rath. Why did you make out with me on the night of a full moon? You know it brings out my… err… Unsightly [cough] EVIL!!! [cough] half…"
The room fell so quiet you could hear the Lookout's topiaries growing. Half of Rune's face had just MELTED! It was all rough and droopy, complete with a gnarled elf ear and a red eye.
"Eh… hahahaha… What he means is…" Rath muttered. :D (They're gonna mutiny…)
The nasty half of Rune's face howled, "SILENCE, WOMAN! Now that I have you under my control, I will make you all eat leftover school cafeteria food! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Voices called from within the stunned crowd of characters.
"Nooo! I want my donuts back!" Vash sobbed, eyes shining.
"I knew they 'recycled'. I KNEW it!!!" Muttered Sakura. "Eeew."
"For the love of Kami, no one's THAT evil!" Exclaimed Toguro.
"This brings evil to a whole new level… For once I really can't convince myself to believe that he contains a shred of good…" Goku, Vash, Kenshin, Sailor Moon, and assorted others blurted, stunned.
"That is where you are wrong, my fellow animated citizens," Exclaimed Rath. She then pulled her disguise off, revealing that she really was… (ta daaaa!) Vendetta, legendary bounty hunter of random evil! Red hair fell out of the wig, and down her back.
"NO! WHY???" Mutant Rune screamed in agony. "Why do you follow me everywhere? Can't you just leave me and my reincarnations alone???"
"Cause you are Eeeevil." She stated simply. "What a freak of nature. Like a centuries-old demon Michael Jackson. You talk loud all the time, but you don't deliver- like Naruto. And then you have to go and make half the earth look like you do…"
Naruto snapped back, "I AM NOT FRIGGIN LOUD!!!" (Demon kitsune starts coming awake)
"Umm… oops?" Vendetta squeaked, crawling away.
"Who is this guy anyways?" Piccolo and Amidamaru inquired.
"Nothin' special… just the physical embodiment of the Deviant Reality Virus…" She winked back.
Their jaws dropped all the way back to earth.
"What the HELL???" They screamed at her together.
"Basically… (Um, how do I explain this? They become real.) if you don't stop this virus, you'll all get ugly and have your powers sucked dry."
"Well, won't all the tough guys just beat it up?" Bulma dared to ask.
"At least not while he's controlling Rune (Uh… half of Rune…) like this." She grinned back.
"help… me.." Rune's better half whispered.
"I say the hell with Rune! Let's just kill him so we can get on with the party!!!" Yusuke angrily yelled (fist punching the air), followed by a lot of encouragement by the males.
"If you hit him, the virus will attach to YOU..." Nobody heard her among the wild scrabble :P
Everybody who could was diving to get a hit in- the virus was hopping from Rune (who, sadly, promptly bit the Lookout's tiles after being sucked of all his animeness L), to Vegeta, to Hiei, to... the dust cloud was too big. Man was this gonna get weird fast.
"HOLD UP!!! THE REASON I BROUGHT HIM HERE, NOW IS…"
They all stopped. Everyone had bits of plague in weird places- Vendetta would have laughed if she could. She was serious now.
"I… need your help…" she sighed. "ALL of you. Please. The very fate of all you know is at stake here."
