Chapter 15: The Crossover Curse Continues
Now onward to our tale!
We open to... a secret government organization that's going to kill us all. Just kidding, it's Isle Delfino yet again.
We go down to the same beach from the beginning of the last chapter. We spot Kouji, Junpei, Tomoki, and the bandage-wearing Bokomon and Neemon standing around waiting for the other members of their squad.
"Where are Takuya and Izumi?" asked Junpei. "Weren't we all supposed to meet here to talk about the plan to get off the island?"
"Yeah," said Kouji, but then he got an idea. "Maybe they're... busy."
"What do you mean by that?" responded Junpei.
"Oh, nothing," said Kouji.
"I do wonder where they are," Bokomon asked with a somewhat motherly concern.
"Maybe they're catching the thing that does the thing that things when the thing does the thing!" said Neemon.
Bokomon stared at his friend.
"Shut up."
In the Plaza.
We see Takuya and Izumi still wearing the same robes. Takuya is still stuck to the tree with the arrow.
"Izumi, call an... ambulance... please..." he groaned.
"Be patient," she responded.
The ambulance arrived. A Pianta wearing hospital attire jumped out. "Well, what seems to be the problem, you strange dressing people?" asked Hospital Pianta 1.
"I think it's a bit obvious..." Izumi said, pointing upwards.
HP1 looked back and forth between them, his gaze resting on Takuya who was motioning to the arrow in his left shoulder. "Well, what is it then?"
Izumi slapped her forehead.
"I'm stuck to a damn tree!" shouted Takuya. "Now get me down from here! ... Ah, I see the light... Grandma is that you? Eww, no... Fluffy! I thought you got hit by a car! PAIN! ... Wait, that is you, Grandma..."
"Hey, look at him zone out!" laughed HP1.
"Get him down, you moron!" screamed Izumi.
As HP1 was trying to get Takuya down, they saw in the distance a giant centipedecreature heading right towards them.
"Er... Is that Lady Centipede?" asked Izumi.
"Give me the Shikon Jewel!" roared Lady Centipede.
"Oh snap!"
"Give me the Jeweeeeeeel!" shouted Lady Centipede. "Blah blah blaaaah!"
Lady Centipede rushed toward them and wrapped herself around the tree, taking Izumi with her and pinning her against Takuya while crushing them both. And did that sentence make any sense? Of course not!
"Give me the Jewel!"
Lady Centipede continued to crush them.
"Hey... Izumi," asked Takuya.
"What?"
"Can you pull this arrow out?"
"But wouldn't that hurt?"
"It's a chance I'm willing to take!"
"Oh, whatever!"
Izumi reached up and yanked the arrow out. Takuya blinked for a second, then tearsbegan pouring from his eyes.
"That hurt," he said in a squeaky voice.
"Wimp."
Lady Centipede strengthened her grip around the tree, causing them to cringe in pain.
"Now give me the Jewel!" she roared.
"Uh... Look! Exterminators!" shouted Izumi, attempting to point somewhere.
Lady Centipede loosened her grip as she looked around frantically for her true enemy.
"Come on!" shouted Takuya as they both ran away from the spazzing Centipede Lady like maniacs.
Lady Centipede continued spazzing out until she realized something.
"Hey! Woo-woop-woo-woo!"
And so, the chase began. Woo-woop-woo-woo!
Meanwhile on the beach place where... ah, screw it.
"My Neemon sense is tingling," said Neemon.
"... What?"
Suddenly, Takuya and Izumi came running as fast as they could, complete with frantically waving arms.
"What the hell?" asked the others, except Tomoki. (He said "heck". I am not going to corrupt little children, no sir-ee.)
"RUN!" screamed Takuya and Izumi as they both ran past.
"GIIIVE MEEEE THE JEEEEWEEELLL!" roared Lady Centipede as she also shot past the other CCs, kicking up sand everywhere.
"... Well, that's something you don't see everyday," said Bokomon.
And the chase continues!
"ALL I WANT IS THE DAMN JEWEL! GIVE ME THE DAMN JEWEL!"
"I don't have the Jewel!" shouted Takuya.
"Then what's that in your hand?" asked Izumi.
Takuya looked at his hand and realized that he had the Jewel the whole time.
"Oh... well. That can't be good."
"ROOOOOOOARRRRRR!"
"It's hard to run in these robe things!" complained Takuya.
"I'm burning calories, now I won't have to purge!" Izumi stated.
"What?"
"Nothing."
The others walked up casually, ignoring the chaos.
"Are you aware that we're still trapped on the island?" asked Kouji.
"And where did you get those cool robes?" asked Tomoki.
"And what's withthat giant centipede lady?" asked Junpei.
"It's... a... long... story..." said the exhausted Takuya and Izumi.
In the Plaza.
Kouichi was walking around aimlessly.
"I wonder where Kouji is... and if he'll like this lovely turtleneck I got him, despite the fact it's not in season!"
Lady Centipede finally caught up. "You damn kids, always interferrin' with my plans, well, I'll show you..."
"Look, exterminators!"
"I'm not falling for that one again!"
"Suit yourself."
And thus, Lady Centipede was brought to an end, thanks to bug spray.
"When I grow up, I want to be just like them 'cause they kill giant bugs for no real reason!" Neemon grinned.
Bokomon sighed, "Shut up."
End of chapter 15.
