Kali: ...And brought you back safe and sound!
Loki: What more could you want...?
Nikita: Oh, quit whining and do your chores! You're not babies!
Ice: But what if... ._.;;
*everybody has a horrible mental image of the muses getting chibified and shudders*
Blackie: Sorry, muses, but work's work, and you're it!
Robert: See ya tomorrow!
*everybody goes up to their rooms, except for the muses & Bit & Leena*
Bit: *sticks his tongue out, crosses his eyes & wiggles his ears at the muses* =^_^=;; Nah-nah-nah-nah---
Leena: T_T;; *hits Bit on the head with a crowbar*
Bit: *dopey-faced* ---nah...*faints* X_x
Leena: *drags Bit off and throws him into the boys' room*
Boys: AAAAAAAH!!!!!
Muses: O.O *run away to do their work*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
*later that night*
Random Shadow Dude: *sneaks down the stairs*
*in the kitchen*
Kai: *sweeping the floor while his eyelids are at half-mast* Oh...man...I had...no...idea...doing chores...could be...so...tiriiiiing... x.x
Kali: *doing the dishes* It...*yawn* coulda been...*yawn* worse...
RSD: *sneaks past the kitchen door*
Loki: *stands up very straight all of a sudden* Who was that?! OoO
Everybody else: Huh...? *looks toward the kitchen doorway*
Kai: There's nobody there, Loki.
CW: There goes another one...Loki, you've flipped. You're nuts.
Tala: Dude, maybe we should turn in now, seeing as Loki's----Uh...Y'know...*twirls finger next to head*
Loki: No! OoO I mean...I'm alright! I just thought I saw something... .
CW: Whatever. -.-;; Quit gawking and get back to work.
*outside*
Sanders: *takes off RSD disguise (which, BTW, consists of a black trenchcoat, an old black fedora hat, and some sunglasses)* Whew! I was roasting in that trenchcoat! *looks around* _ Good...No one saw me... _
Kiono: (That's what he thinks...) -.-;;
*the organoids slowly surround Sanders, watching him*
Dracunis: (This is insane...What's he doing out here this time of night...?) ^_~;;
Shadow: (Probably stargazing. Or maybe he needs to check up on his zoid or something...)
Draco: (That's probably it.)
Sanders: *takes something shiny out of his pocket*
Zeke: (WHOA! OoO It's a----)
Kiono: *stuffs Zeke's face into the ground*
Zeke: Krrr! Shmrrr! (Mmph! Mrmph!)
Sanders: Huh...? ^_~ *looks around, then shrugs* Oh, well...
Shadow: (Oh, calm down, Jerky! It's just a book with a shiny cover, that's all!)
Draco: (Yeah, get a grip, man! You almost blew our cover!)
Xixa: (Hey, what's he reading?)
Sanders: *reading softly* Hm...It says "Now that you are familiar with most of the play, practice it in an area and during a time which bests mimics where the play took place." *looks around again and starts reading* Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou...? *stops* Huh...? Oops, that was Juliet's line! XP
Organoids: Snrk-shruk-shruk! (*snicker, snort, snort*)
Stormy: (Oh, my Lord, he's reading Romeo & Juliet! Can you believe it?!?!?!) XD XD XD
Tyson: Ruff...Rowf, growr-rr-rwr...Grf...*bark! bark! bark!* (No...*snort* But it's pretty...amusing...*snort* HAHAHAHA!!!!)
Sanders: *hears the barking* YEEEP!!!! OoO *turns around in a martial arts pose while holding the book above his head like a weapon* Um...Er...Who's there...? I...Um...I'm warning you, I'm armed and I'm not afraid to hurt you!!!!
Shadow: *rolls eyes* (Oh, like, that's...)
Zeke: (...really scary!!! XD XD XD)
Organoids: *snicker quietly*
Dracunis: (Hey, keep it down! Let's see what he's gonna do next!)
Organoids: *keep quiet*
Sanders: Um...Hey, uh...Anybody...Um...out there...?
*silence*
Sanders: *shifty eyes, then goes back to reading* Maybe I should skip this chapter...*flips to another page* Ooh...It says "How to ask a Girl to Marry You". I'll try it! ^.^
Organoids: (Gak...!!! O.O)
Draco: (Did...Did we just hear that...?!?!?!)
Stormy: (Sh-sh-sh! Quiet now! This oughta be good!)
Sanders: *reading* "When you ask for a lady's hand in betrothal, you should do it preferably down on one knee." *kneels down on one knee*
Dracunis: (The way he did it, he looked like he had arthritis! XD)
Sanders: *still reading*"Now, stretch out your right hand gallantly..." *makes a face, but stretches right hand out* "...and ask, very politely..." *stops* O-kaaaaay...It says "__________, will you marry me...?" I guess that means I should say...*brightens up* Ooh! *assumes kneeling position, tosses his head, stretches out his right arm, and says in a deep voice* Pierce, will you marry me...?
Organoids: O.O
Tyson: (I...*snicker*...need to go away for a while...) *runs off*
Draco: (Hey, where's he going?)
Xixa: (To laugh REAL hard about what we just heard.)
Organoids: *look at each other, and run away after Tyson*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*a few minutes later*
*camera flash-zooms over to the other side of the island*
Organoids: *standing on top of a huge plateau and laughing like lunatics* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!, ROTFLMAO, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, LMAO, etc; etc....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*back with Sanders*
Sanders: Funny, I wonder what that racket was...? Oh, well, guess I'd better turn in...*walks back into the cabin*
Security camera: *swivels around to watch Sanders*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*in the main cabin's security room (LMAO, just for kicks...XD)*
Silvana: *turns around in a huge, comfy chair to look at Sanders; speaks with a Russian accent* Hmm...Sneaking out, eh? ^_~;; Well, then, we'll see about that in the morning...*stops the tape, pulls it out of the VCR, and leaves the room*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
*next morning*
*everyone is gathered in the mess hall*
Silvana: Psst! *hands Doc Toros a note*
Toros: *reads note* Huh...? ^.~ *snickers* Oh...Oh my...*passes note to Leena and giggles*
Leena: Yeah, dad...A note? *reads note* What?! He tried...Oh, never mind...*giggles and passes it to Robert*
Robert: *laughs* Hahaha! He actually...*stops and passes it to Roxanne*
Roxanne: Hmm...It is kinda funny...
*the note is passed around the mess hall...Here're the responses after reading*
Nathan: Lol, wish I coulda seen it...
Bit: Hahahaha! Oh, man, what a loony! XD
Tanner: Knock it off, Bit---Gag me...He really said that?!
Maelgwyn: Ooh...Well, at least it's not anything um...worse...
Jamie: Gah! Where did you get this?!
Ryou: This guy must be dense if he likes her that much...
Raven: *bored voice* Ew, lovey-dovey gossip. How preppy. *gets whacked on the head by someone*
IceDragon: *laughs* Silvana, what you saw must have been priceless!
Chaos: Sappiness must DIE! Die, EVIL SPAWN OF SATAN!!! *scratches the note*
Mel: *picks note up, reads, & snickers* I...must...see it...! XD HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Seighart: *laughs* Oh my Ra, what a sorry twerp...XD
Vega: San—Erm, him? No way!!! *laughs* Oh, well, we tried. *whistles*
Lamoo: Woot! 'Speare's R & J...And a...marriage proposal to nobody?!
Thomas: Shakespeare's R & J?! Why didn't I think of that?! Wait a sec...Who's Shakespeare...?
Van: Heh-heh...Gotta give 'im credit...That was pretty corny, though...
Blackie: *whispers to Van* LMAO, Thomas wants Fiona...*reads note* Still, this is pretty...interesting...
Nikita: So he likes her. So what? That guy's pitiful...
Sharra: I don't think so. I think it's cute. ^_^
O' Connell: Um...Spying...is just not right...
Karl: I agree with O'Connell...Although this is very intriguing...
Harry: Ooooh! A note! =^.^= *thinking* (Maybe it's from Leena!) *reaches for the note, but...*
Mary: *snatches note* Such gossip is not ideal for us of the higher rank. *passes note without reading*
Sebastian: OK, this is getting out of hand.
Benjamin: Why do you say that? I think it's beautiful! *sighs*
Brad: *monotone* What a mouroooon... (a/n: He pronounces it the way Bugs Bunny does.)
Naomi: Oh, how cute! A bit of Romeo & Juliet! ^-^;;
Leon: Give it here, Naomi. *reads* Oh...Oh...O.O
Stoller: OK, Now I can find out what this is all about! *reads* Uh...No comment...O.O
*everyone except Sanders& Pierce has read the note (Because the note said "Pass to EVERYONE EXCEPT SANDERS & PIERCE", that's why! XD)*
Sanders & Pierce: Hey! Let us read it next! ToT;;
Everybody: No!
Sa & P: Why?! T_T
Everybody: 'Cause we said so! Clean the hall. We'll be back! *gets out of their seats and leaves*
Sanders: *looks at Pierce* I hate this, how 'bout you?
Pierce: Well, duh!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*back with everybody else*
Seighart: Oh my Ra, just when I thought everything would be alright.
Toros: *has a demented look on his face* They came back! Like zombie monsters! With eight heads, and thirteen eyes each head, and ninety-nine legs, and...
Leena: Um, dad? What are you talking about...? ^_~
Toros: Uh, nothing! Nothing at all! =^_^=;;
Maelgwyn: *very solemn voice* This is very evil. I mean, very bad.
Bit: Hey, Transilvana, can I read that note again?
Silvana: It's Silvana, not Transilvana! If you try that again, your head is gonna fly off!!! ToT;;
Bit: Sure, Transylvania. *reads note aloud* "To everybody: I was watching last night's security tape..." *makes a face* Get real! It's not like we're gonna make off with your stuff!
Robert: Well, you did make off with Leena's food a few times...
Bit: Yeah, but I was hungry! Besides, she's always complaining how much she weighs, so I thought I'd help her slim down a bit!
*everybody looks at Leena*
Leena: You mean you all don't think I'm fat...? ^.~
Everybody: NO! Read it again, Bit!
Bit: Jeepers! Don't have a hernia on me now! *clears throat* So..."I was watching the tape, when I saw some unscrupulous guy enter the camera's viewpoint." *groans* Hey, girl, couldn't you use littler words next time?
Silvana: Grrr....
Bit: *doesn't notice* "It turned out that the person was Sanders. To my profound amazement, he produced from his overcoat pocket a manuscript entitled "Getting the Girl when she doesn't want You". He opened it and began dictating the words the book contained. He recited a section of Romeo and Juliet. Unfortunately, he said Juliet's line instead of Romeo's line. Upon realizing his error, he proceeded to another chapter which, according to his recitation, was entitled "How to Ask a Girl to Marry You". Here was where he flabbergasted me." *snickers* Flabbergasted...Hoo, boy...*goes back to reading* "In accordance with the book's tip, he knelt down on one knee, stretched out his right hand, and asked in a grossly exaggerated tone of voice if Pierce could marry him." *laughs* My favorite part...XD
Brad: Gee, Bit. That's the longest thing you've said since we got here. ^_~
Bit: Shut up! . Anyway..."It seems that Sanders' passion for Pierce is the kind that dies hard...Therefore; I call an emergency meeting right now in the zoid hangar. Pass this on to everybody except Sanders & Pierce." The note ends there.
Raven: You island moderators seem pretty fond of using awfully big words...-.-;;
Karl: They also seem quite partial to spying on other people, eh? ^_~
Silvana: It was for security purposes! What if that dude was Hiltz or Prozen or Reece instead of Sanders?!
O'Connell: *waves hand in front of Silvana's face* Hel-lo?! Current events; headline number 1: Prozen was killed when his plan to take over Zi with the Death Saurer failed.
Seighart: Dad always was a megalomaniac...I knew it would get him into trouble one day...
O'Connell: Headline number 2: Hiltz is dead as well, defeated when the Death Saurer was destroyed again.
Van: *interrupts* Credit to me! I'm yoh man! XD
Karl: Hey, no fair! I helped too! ToT;;
O'Connell: And headline number 3: Reece is alive and well after her betrayal of the Dark Kaiser & Hiltz and currently has a crush on Raven. *covers mouth* Oops...!!! O.O
Raven: Her?!?!?!?! OoO *shudders* No...No WAY!!! Reece is creepy! She has funny eyes... _;; *shivers again*
Van: *pokes Raven* You like her! *evil grin* You just won't admit it! ^^;;
Sharra: Oh, no, don't fight now!
R & V: Right. Sorry. *calm down*
Tanner: Hey, Trans---Er, Silvana, can we see that tape?
Silvana: Yeah, I still have it. Let's go up to the girls' room and watch it.
Boys (from Zoids): *gleep...!*
Vega: Ew, the girls' room?!
Maelgwyn: It has all the privacy we need...
*everybody notices for the first time the doors to the girls' room are actually made of frosted fiberglass, with laser beams and security cameras all over the place*
Bit: Girls are gross!
Harry: Yeah, except...*dorky look* Leeeeeee-naaaaaaaah... ^o^()
Sebastian: *whispers to Benjamin* He's pathetic.
Benjamin: Ew, I'm not going into a girls' room! XI
Sebastian: I forgot...He's just as pathetic as Harry! T_T
Blackie: Look, we're not gross! Heck, at least we're human!
Nikita: *sighs* She's right. Come on, you guys...! Unless you don't wanna see the tape...
Van: Hey, we're not that desperate!
Girls: *wink at each other*
Ice: *takes something out from behind her back* Feast your eyes on...*holds up box of cookies up* ...this!!! ^_^
Boys (from Zoids): Ooooooooooohhhh..... OoO
Sharra: *holds a cookie in front of the boys' faces* We have cookies! ^o^O;;
Boys (from Zoids): Count us in!!! ^o^()

A/N: LMAO, oh, man, I made Sanders read part of Romeo & Juliet!!! XD And I know most of you didn't have that many lines...But don't worry, you'll have all the lines you need next chappie. ;) Just be considerate. There are a lot of you here, it's not easy dividing the lines between all of you, plus the series characters. (I mean, come on! I have more than 10 people to work with! XD)
If you have any ideas, send 'em in with your reviews! Ideas are always welcome! They help cure writer's block! ^_^
If you have a problem (Like...I'm making you OOC, or what...?) just say so, and I'll try to fix it. ^-^;;
Replies to...you know what...:
Maelgwyn: Lol, no problem! I miss a few chappies of the stories I review occasionally...And don't worry about CW, I'm still planning on something... *winks*
IceDragon '08, Kali, & Chaos: The boat didn't sink...Math, sadly, is utterly difficult...I've been reduced to getting a tutor after school! . Hm...The food...I'll send somebody over to the grocery store...XD And if oooooonlyyyyy there were a cure for the EVIL writer's block! o
Blackie: Well, the hippie crossed with a western guy part is a self-description of myself...*scrunches up nose and thinks while trying to balance a cookie on the nose's tip* Glad you liked the bathtub of chocolate. ^_^
Seighart: Nice job on your fic so far! Multiple traverses and stuff...I loved the wedding chappie! ^o^() LMAO, evil Darts, but I like Seto better. *winks* Along with someone else... *winks again*
TMT & Kai: Thanks for the support, guys. Y'know what? That part about Puck from 'Speare was what gave me the idea for Romeo & Juliet in this chappie! ^_^;; LMAO, hey, Kai, might as well give up. *chuckles* She's gone catch you, anyway... XD
Wolfpup7: Glad you were finally able to review! ^_^ We don't have algebra yet, just...*shudder* Evil triangles with their hypotenuses and medians... And the evil formula for finding the sides of a polygon...EVIL!!! XD XD XD Huh? Don't worry, Kuronue will appear later, promise. I'm planning it out now...
Xgirl141: Schoolwork (and my brother & writer's block) have been keeping me from being able to write lately as well...I've also been reduced to updating once a month! Man, I thought I'd have more time to update during the semestral break...But the computer!!! It was whacko! . And thanks for the idea. I'll use it! ^_^
