(A/n: I've been home sick for three days now, I'm think I'm going to go on a massive updating spree…. Oh yea, I just had to read Lord of the Flies and it's still in my head. This story is uncannily like it, non?)
Raoul: *blowing a massive conch shell* Everyone, come here!
*Alanna, Jon, Kel, Numair, Dom, Daine, Buri, and Neal come running from the beach and forest. Buri is dragging an unconscious Thayet*
Host: *Climbs down from a tree* What happened to the Queen?
Jon: EX-queen!
Everyone: *Gives Jon weird looks*
Buri: She hasn't woken up from when Jon threw a rock at her. I think she might be dead.
Thayet: *Without opening her eyes and barely moving her lips* I'm not dead. I'm just waiting for Prince Charming to kiss me and bring me back to life.
Buri: Oh, ok. *To everyone* She's not dead yet! She's waiting for Prince Charming to kiss her!
Neal: *to Numair* I'm a better actress than Thayet.
Alanna: Did she say Prince Charming? *Everyone nods* Oops, I think I killed him a while ago.
Jon: I'll be your Prince Charming, my Lioness.
Kel: Me and Dom are getting married.
Daine: We KNOW! *Pushes Kel*
Kel: *Staring blankly at them and smiling serenely.* That's okay, Daine. I'm not mad at you. *Under breath* I am a Lump. I am a stone. Water on a calm day….Let anger drip off you like the droplet drips off a marijuana leaf…
Tobe: *Appearing for just a moment* I knew she was on Rainbow Dream! *Disappears*
Raoul: That's enough! I blew the conch--
Dom: Where did you get the conch?
Raoul: *Scrubbing his face with his hands* I need a drink…
Kel: *Robotically* Shall I get you one, Sir?
Raoul: ENOUGH! I blew the conch--that I found--so we could meet on this platform and have a little group therapy.
Numair: I wouldn't call it a platform, per se. It's more of a hillock.
Thayet: *Eyes still closed* Is my Prince Charming here yet?
Alanna: I KILLED him, you *****! Now get up, we know you're not dead.
Thayet: *Muttering to herself* You always ruin my fun, Alanna.
Raoul: Alright, everyone in a circle! *They form a circle* Now cross legged…hands palm-up on your knees…that's right. No, no, the other joint in your leg, Buri. There!
Host: Are you guys serious?
Raoul: You can join us or go away, Host. I'm going to fix the problems you created.
Host: You can't do that, I'm chief!!!
Raoul: I got the conch! So there!
*Host unhappily sits outside the circle*
Raoul: Everyone must say something nice to the people next to them and across from them. The order is: across, left, right. Then we'll go clockwise. Who wants to start?
Neal: Oh! Oh! Me! Pick me! Okay. Um…Across….Dom, you're my cousin and I admire you because…you're in the Own. Buri, I like you because you have enough self-confidence to wear your nasty outfits out in public.
Host: That wasn't very nice.
Neal: Right. Raoul….I like you because you're here to save us all. And you were Kel's knight master. And you're in the Own, too.
Buri: My turn! Kel, I like what you've been doing for girls everywhere. Alanna, I still appreciate that you saved me and Thayet. Even though I pretended to hate you. And Neal, I like you because you healed me once.
Neal: That was a mistake…
Alanna: Jon! I beyond like you. I love you! Because you're so hott and we had so many good times in--Yea, well, you get the drift. Thayet….The reasons I have to love thee are deeper than thou canst devise, Therefore farewell, and be satisfied.
Numair: What was that?
Alanna: Shakespeare. I couldn't think of a reason to like Thayet, so I used a line from Romeo and Juliet. Ok, and Buri! When we were chasing that assassin in Rachia, you tripped and fell and made me look better in comparison. Haha!
Thayet: You suck at saying nice things, Alanna. Daine, I like you because you put up with me all those times I was mean to you. Like on our way to Pirates Swoop, and I yelled. You can also become an animal. I respect that. Represent!!!
Jon: *shaking his head* Oh my Gods….
Thayet: Numair. Hm….We don't talk much, do we? I like you because you're so powerful, I don't have much of a choice. And Alanna…I used to admire you. I guess we let the lesser sex get between us. Cough George and Jon Cough!
Jon: Who are you calling bad sex? I should be saying that to YOU, Thayet!
Dom: She means that women are superior to men, my Lord.
*Thayet blushes*
Jon: Oh. Carry on….
Numair: Alright! Raoul, I like you because you saved me and Daine's ass--oops, I mean buttocks--at Dunlath. And you killed that monster thing at Legann. Dom…I don't really know you. But you seem like a decent sort. I liked how you worked at Haven. And Thayet…yea, don't know you well either. THIS SUCKS! *He stands* I'm sick of staying with people I don't know, and people that argue all the time! I'm going to the other side of the island, and anyone who wants to have fun and eat good food can come with! *He runs away*
*After several moments, Buri, Alanna, Jon, Thayet, and Daine run after him*
Jon: TOGA! TOGA! TOGA!
Host: *Sneaks in and snatches the conch from Raoul* Wait! I've got the conch! *He turns back to the four remaining* Okay, lets face it; we're screwed. They have four powerful mages compared to our one healer, and two great warriors, and we're outnumbered.
Raoul: Me and Dom make pretty good warriors.
Kel: What about me??
Neal: You're a girl. *stops and looks horrified* I mean, you're a warrioress…? Girl-warrior?
*Kel pushes back her sleeves and advances on him*
Neal: AAAH! Wait! *He runs to join Numair, Daine, Alanna, Jon, Thayet, and Buri*
Raoul: Why don't we just join them? They're not bad or anything--
Host: I'M chief, and I have the CONCH! I'M in charge!
Dom: Let's just leave! *Stands up* Raoul, how did you get here?
Raoul: Can't say.
Dom: Well, do you know how to get back?
Raoul: Can't say.
*Dom clenches his fists in frustration*
Kel: Now what?
Host: Well, we have to get them back, of course. I'm the chief. Who's with me? Who's with me?!
*They raise their hands half-heartedly*
Host: Let's go!
