~*After the Beep*~

     A fanfic by Setsumi-san

____________________________________________________________________________________ 

     Quotable quotes: "Cinderella Ren!" –Chocolove making a bad pun.

____________________________________________________________________________________

     Setsumi-san: ^o^  That was probably Chocolove's most famous line in the whole series. What's not funny about Tao Ren in drag? 

     Ren: (holds his kwan-dao an inch away from Setsumi-san's neck)

     Setsumi-san: Uh, absolutely nothing is funny about it. No sir. 

     Ren: Exactly.

     Setsumi-san: I hope you enjoy the machine of our favorite pun master. Review, onegai.

/Chocolove's Answering Machine/

     Chocolove's voice: Hey, the world's greatest comedian/Future Shaman King isn't here right now. I'm busy spreading the Wind of Laughter to everybody so you'll have to leave a message-Miss Hedge! Get it? 

#BEEP#

     Message 1:  Miss Hedge…Miss Hedge...oh! Ohh! Bwahahahahaa!!  That's a good one, Chocolove-san! This is Pillica calling you back to accept your invitation to come over and listen to your new material.  Umm, will this take very long? I, um, don't want to stay up too late because I stuck around too long having such a good time. (mutters under breath) I guess I can always read that pocket dictionary when it gets really bad. Anyway, I'll be there with bells on! 

#BEEP#

     Message 2:  I, Asakura Hao, am calling you because I am in a very bad mood and felt like terrifying a random ally of my otouto. Now I heard that you were smart enough to figure out that Yoh and I were one in the same, so guess who the lucky victim is?  The Spirit of Fire hasn't eaten anything in days, poor thing, and wants to know if it should fry, grill, or bake a certain clown. I encouraged it to go with grilling because it's much less painful for the food.  MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!  Ah, I'm happy again. 

#BEEP#

     Message 3: Hello Chocolove, it's Ryu calling to say I'm feeling a little better about Lyserg and that Milly-chan and I didn't hurt anyone on the rescue mission. *sigh*  It was a failure anyway.   Anyway, Horohoro and I made a bet on whether or not you're wearing a skirt. He says it's something called a sarong, but it looks like a skirt to me. Call Horohoro and tell him he's wrong so I can get my fifteen bucks to spend on the latest calendar featuring…er, let's just say it's a re-e-e-eally pretty calendar.  Heh, heh, heh…oh baby…    

#BEEP#  

     Message 4: Chocolove, it's Ren calling to ask you just how the h*ll your DEAD jaguar can shed like this all over my clothes. Give-me-an-answer.  

#BEEP# 

     Message 5:  *Macchi*: Sir, we local animal control officers have just been informed of wild howler monkeys that are loose in your area!

                         *Kanna*: Take the following precautions: 1.Do not go outside.

                         *Mari*: 2. Lock all doors and windows. 

                         *Macchi*: 3. Do not bathe for as long as possible! As filthy as Howler Monkeys are they theirselves can't stand the stench of human beings. Being a dirty stinky slob is the only way to be safe!

                          *Mari*: Don't worry; we'll get rid of these beasts for you.

                          *Kanna*:  …When we feel like it.

     Setsumi-san: Well yeah…not really. ^^'  However, I will be very sad without reviews. *pouts*
