*cough, cough* So... sick... and... spent whole day watching X!! WHOO!!
Ahem... here's chapter 6.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Soul Calibur II characters, nor any of the random songs that appear in this chapter... ooo! Nor the reality shows that the characters discuss...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Warrior Island
*~* Chapter 6 – The Night of TERROR *~*
"So... this is Survivor?" Ivy asked, staring at the TV.
"Yup!" Talim smiled, "Isn't it great??"
Ivy shrugged, "Adequate, I suppose."
"What are you talking about!?" exclaimed Raphael, "It's terrible!! Absolutely revolting!"
Mitsurugi seemed entranced, "It's like my everyday life..."
...... Silence ......
"I wish that Big Brother were on... The drama! The passion!" Xianghua sighed dreamily.
Astaroth wrinkled his nose, "Too cheesy, worms..."
"Cheesy worms?!" Cassandra exclaimed, "GROSS!!"
"Like maggoty cheese!" Cervantes grinned, "Which would be from my favourite reality show..."
"Fear Factor!" Yoshimitsu recalled.
"Precisely!"
Talim tilted her head, "I thought no one here watched TV..."
"We lied," everyone said at the exact same time.
"Oh..." Talim felt insulted.
"I like The Bachelor and The Bachelorette!" Sophitia brought the conversation back on track, "Finding your soul mate on a TV show is so romantic!"
"Souls?? WHERE!?" Nightmare looked around frantically. Oh... and he now had clothes on. Armour, as always. What he chose to wear under it this time... well, that's his secret.
"Soul MATES, genius." Sophitia rolled her eyes.
Nightmare slowly sat down on the couch, "Oh... well... shows like that are totally lacking! I mean... where the deceivedness??"
"Uh... they could all just be a bunch of horny liars," Yunsung answered, "That seems rather deceiving to me. But what do I know?"
Mina rolled her eyes, "Nothing..."
"It's a rhetorical question, Mina."
"That never seems to stop YOU from answering them!" Mina snapped.
Yunsung shrugged, "Fair enough."
"Do you know what has lies AND romance??" Cassandra then answered without waiting for reply, "Joe Millionaire!!"
"That's kind of lost its spark with me," Sophitia said. "I mean... there are only so many seasons it can manage to live for before they run out of countries who haven't heard of it."
Kilik sighed, "I think that all reality shows are lame. Could they be any FURTHER from REALITY??"
"Hya, yaaaaa, hya hya!" Link shouted.
"OK, OK. The Amazing Race is pretty cool."
Namika, who had been sitting just outside of her room scribbling things in a notebook, finally spoke up, "All right, people! I think that your comments have confused enough readers for now..."
"Readers?"
"Yeah. People reading this chapter."
"Chapter??"
Namika realized that they didn't know about the fact that this is a story, "... um... of our LIVES!" she then clapped her hands twice, "Now... off to bed with you all! I'll explain why you're all here tomorrow. So, as I said... to bed! HA!! It rhymes! Ahem... there's limited room in this castle, so you all have to pair up and share rooms..."
"I call staying with-" all of the warriors began.
"... with people whom I have previously chosen!" Namika smirked. The warriors groaned, fearing who they'd have to share their room with. "It won't be that bad!" Namika assured, "I took your interests into considering when I chose your roommates. Now Assassin shall lead you to your rooms!"
Assassin nodded in understanding, "Come on, kids and people-older-than-me! Let's move!" everyone followed Assassin to their chosen rooms...
---In the middle of the night---
Kilik awoke and glanced at the clock in his room. "Twelve o'clock... perfect. Everyone should be sleeping now," he figured, "Hey! Maxi!" Kilik looked over at the other bed in the room. Empty. "That's weird," he shrugged, "Oh well. I'll have to go and get Xianghua..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kilik cracked open Xianghua's door, "Pst! Xianghua..." Xianghua moaned and turned over, ignoring Kilik. He sighed and looked over at the other bed in the room. Talim was fast asleep. "Xianghua!" he said louder. The girl reluctantly sat up and glared evilly at Kilik. "Sorry for waking you up..."
"You damn well better be," Xianghua frowned.
"I am. Now... I don't trust this 'Namika' girl... I think that we should try to find some incriminating evidence about her!" Kilik suggested.
Xianghua groaned, "You say that about everyone..."
*~*~* Random Flashback *~*~*
"I'm telling you, Xianghua. He isn't trustworthy!" Kilik glanced at Maxi, who was combing his hair back, in a Greaser-like fashion. "We need to find some incriminating evidence!"
"Kilik... why the hell are you telling ME this?? You've been travelling with him even more than you have with me..."
*~*~* End Random Flashback *~*~*
"But I really believe it this time!" Kilik insisted.
"I'm going back to sleep," Xianghua lay back down and pulled the covers over her head.
"Fine! But I'm still going to look!" and with that, Kilik stormed off.
---Meanwhile, with the missing pirate...---
Maxi snuck through the hallways, clearing searching for something. "Where is he?" he asked himself. Suddenly, footsteps were heard approaching! "Aha!" Maxi quickly hid behind the television.
The footsteps grew nearer... and nearer... and nearer... and... Gasp! The footsteps were that of Raphael! "Late night comedy..." Raphael turned on the TV, "Is there nothing better?" Maxi raised a peculiar eyebrow, but remained silent. Raphael laughed to himself, "Ah... who comes up with these situations.
Maxi thinks... 'Raphael actually likes comedy and stupid things on TV?! WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO?!?!"
Maxi mutters... "Hypocrite..." and proceeds sneaking through the hallway.
---As for Kilik...---
"There has to be some room that tells me something more about this Namika..." Kilik turned to a door with a fancy sign that read 'Your Almighty Leader, Namika's, Room'. "Well... let's have a look..." Kilik opened the door and looked around. Namika was fast asleep, so Kilik felt it was safe to enter. There was nothing interesting in her room, though. Well... maybe that was inaccurate... there was nothing incriminating in her room. That's better. Kilik sighed and left the room to continue looking.
"If only I could find a room with a sign that said 'Namika's Room of Incriminating Evidence'..." his eyes wandered to a sign that read 'Namika's Sanctuary – Keep Out! – Contents may be Incriminating...'. Kilik blinked. "Eh... close enough," he entered the room.
---Maxi! Maxi! Max-I!!---
Footsteps were heard again; these ones were even heavier. "That HAS to be him!" Maxi concluded.
Two Assassins then came into view... one was balancing on the other's shoulders. "Come on!" the first one said, "... hurry up! We HAVE to get them before Master Namika hears us!"
Maxi stared blankly, "Uh..."
"You try to balance an exact duplicate of yourself on your shoulders!" the second Assassin snapped.
"Just go!" the first Assassin commanded, "If you drop me now, we'll never get those cookies!!"
Maxi tilted his head, "...Cookies...?"
"I don't even get how Namika can reach the cookies on that high shelf!" Assassin number two commented.
"Shut up and walk!" Assassin number one kicked Assassin number two on the side.
"OW!!"
"Ssh!"
Maxi resisted the urge to comment and just shifted away. "Man... strange things are afoot at night around here..."
---What about the 'Roomies'??---
"Did you hear something??" Mina asked while remaining alert to any other sounds that may enter her ears. Uh... besides the reply, of course. I mean... she was listening for that, too, but... never mind.
"I'm asleep. Can't answer now..." Yunsung mumbled.
"But you just answered me!!"
Yunsung turned onto his side, "So? I'm listening to you in my sleep..."
Mina's eye twitched, "Nooo... you're being irritating!!" she picked up one of her boots that were beside her bed and whipped it at Yunsung.
"OW!! BITCH!!!!" he shouted.
{Bitch... itch... itch... ch... ch...} ((A/N: That was the echo.))
---In another room---
Cassandra lay awake with her eyes wide, "Oh my gods!! The echo is dissing me!!! Sis!! SIS!!"
"It's not dissing you..." assured Sophitia.
"Then who is it dissing??"
"Well..."
---Yet another room---
"Ack!! Someone just called me a bitch!!" ...someone squealed in a high- pitched voice.
Ivy sighed, "You're pathetic, father."
That's right. It was Cervantes. "But... but... but they called me a bitch!!"
---Enough of that. To Kilik!---
"What is all of this stuff?" Kilik asked himself as he scanned Namika's Sanctuary. "Let's see... some... 'manga'? And... DVDs called 'X'?? Is that some type of porn?! Uh... am I talking to myself?? Whatever... some random drawings and various papers that say... 'Heart Kurama heart'... what the-? And finally... a... picture of Raphael in DRAG!? This isn't incriminating at all! It's... creepy..." Kilik shuddered, before noticing one last item in the room. "'The Sacred Tales of... Subaru's Walking Adventures'!? Who the hell is Subaru!? Let's see this..." as Kilik reached toward the notebook marked with this title, he stopped. "Wait a second... 'Touch this and die!!'" he raised an eyebrow, "That crazy freak is actually threatening random people? Pft! I'm not scared of her..." Kilik grabbed the notebook when all of a sudden the floor below him disappeared and he plummeted down a laundry chute! You heard me... laundry chute!! "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"
---In da rooms, yo!---
"Glasha ba satcha ga lasha ma gah! Glasha ba satcha ga laaaash!" Voldo chanted with somewhat of a rhythm... what could he be singi-
"You take one down and pass it around..." Yoshimitsu joined in. Oh. I get it.
"Vlasha ba satcha ga lasha ma gah!!"
... that just wasn't right.
---Other room---
"Did you hear someone scream?" asked Mitsurugi.
"I can't hear anything over this racket!!" Raphael complained while poking the ceiling with a broom. ((A/N: Voldo and Yoshimitsu are above them. Oh, and Raphael was back from his late night comedy))
Mitsurugi sighed, "Stuck-up Frenchman..."
---OK, now for Maxi---
Our not-so-hero wasn't having much luck finding... erm... whoever he was looking for... until he heavy super-heavy-footsteps-of-DOOM!! "That's GOTTA me him!"
"Can't sleep..." mumbled Astaroth as he walked down the hallway. "Nocturnal worms."
"Yup, I knew it." Maxi nodded, confirming Astaroth's identity. "BOO!!" he shouted as he jumped onto the golem's back.
"AH!!!!!!!!!" Astaroth bucked like a bronco trying to get Maxi off of him.
Xianghua walked out of her room and glared at Maxi, "Argh!! Maxi!! Why do you always do this!?"
"Because I have a grudge, and I need to get rid of it!"
"That's nice... but I wasn't done my questions. This one is more important; Why must everyone interrupt my beauty sleep!?"
"Do you really want me to answer that question?" Yunsung joined in from his doorway.
"NO!!" everyone warrior whom had woken up objected.
Taki tapped her foot impatiently, "Listen, pirate! Grudges are acceptable... but don't take care of them when we're all trying to SLEEP!! Or else..."
"Why? Should I fear you??" Maxi taunted.
"Yes."
.....Long silence.....
"All right, guys. Just... go back to sleep," said Namika.
"Will do!" grinned Necrid as he returned to his room, along with the others who were mumbling things to themselves.
***The Next Morning***
Some of the warriors were still asleep... but unfortunately for Nightmare, Necrid, Astaroth, Cervantes, Ivy, Charade, Yoshimitsu and Taki... they woke up just in time for Namika and Talim's duet of the Arthur theme song.
"Every day when you're walking down the street, everybody that you meet, has an original point of view! And I say HEY, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, where we can learn to work and play, and get along with each other..."
"Does this damned song never END!?" Ivy screeched.
"You got to listen to your heart, listen to the beat, listen to the rhythm, the rhythm of the street. Open up your eyes, open up your ears. Get together and make things better, by working together!"
"Can I kill them??" Taki asked no one in particular, "PLEASE say that I can kill them!!"
"Please do, Taki... please do," pleaded Yoshimitsu.
"It's a simple message, and it comes from the heart... oh believe in yourself, for that's the place to start! And I say HEY, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, where we can learn to work and play, and get along with each other..."
Charade closed his eye and covered his non-existent ears, while Nightmare... danced!? "Are you INSANE!?" Astaroth exclaimed.
Nightmare smiled eerily, "I thought that answer was self-explanatory..."
"Yes?"
"EXACTLY!!"
"Hey! What a wonderful kind of day... Hey! What a wonderful kind of day... HEY!!" Namika and Talim completed.
The other warriors sighed in relief, except for Cervantes who joined in, "Hey! D.W.!!"
"Hey!!" shouted Namika and Talim, in context with the Arthur opening, of course.
"WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAA!! Oof!!" thus, Cervantes completed the song as Ivy hung her head in shame for her father.
"Cervantes... how did you know that ending?" asked Necrid.
"I have my ways..." Cervantes casually leaned back. Everyone looked at him oddly as the previously sleeping characters walked down the hallway. "I heard all of that preposterous singing!!" complained Raphael.
Maxi couldn't resist saying, "Says the one who SECRETLY love late night comedy."
"Eek!! Who told you!?"
"I witnessed it, myself!"
"Nooooooo!!!!!"
"Anyway..." Mina brought the conversation to... a purpose, "Now that we're all up... Namika, please explain what's going on."
"Yeah! Why are we here??" Yunsung asked.
Namika rolled her eyes, "OK, OK! Keep your shirt on! Well... Yunsung doesn't have to if he doesn't want to."
"Erm... I do."
"Damn! Anyway... here's the deal – I don't know."
"WHAT!?"
"I don't know why you're here. Well... not totally anyway. You see... the Ferry Man..."
"What about him?" Sophitia urged her to continue.
"It's his fault that you're here."
"Tell us something that we DON'T know!" said Yunsung.
"I bet that you didn't know that I know your height, weight, blood type, birthdaye, family, discipline, weapon/weapon name and past by heart, Yunsung!" Namika smiled triumphantly.
"That's... kind of creepy..."
Hearts filled Namika's eyes anime-style.
"That's... also creepy..."
"Namika!!" Mina waved her hand in front of Namika's face, "Snap out of it!!"
Namika shook her head to return to normal, "Ahem! Sorry about that... As I was saying, the Ferry Man left you here. BUT, to find out their identity and why they left you here, you must past a series of test-thingies..."
"Hya, ya??" Link asked.
Everyone awaited a translation... but it never came!!
"...where's Kilik?" Cassandra looked around blankly.
"Oh crap!!" exclaimed Xianghua, "He went to find something to prove that Namika is against us!!"
"WHAT!?" Namika screamed, "That idiot!! You had all better hope that he didn't touch Subaru's Walking Adventures!!"
Blank stares.
"... just follow me, you fools!!"
And so the warriors followed Namika to find what the hell had happened to Kilik... and no, he isn't dead!
*~* End of Chapter 6 *~*
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Well, Kilik's Peril has begun... hooray!! Now, to peoples...
To Sea Wolf – So... as I said, Kilik is getting into peril! ^^ And... I've never heard of Guilty Gear, but I visited your Kilik site!! It rocks!
To Bakuraluver4ever - *shifts away*
To Xenomina – Well, if I do put you in, it won't be for a while... (I have a lot of previously-written chapters that I must change the formats of...)
To Some Mabas Guy – I WISH Nightmare would wear a pink, frilly dress shirt!! Heh... that'd be awesome. XD But, alas, he's wearing armour again. And huzzah for Ocarina of Time!! WHOO!!
To Lady Manson – Ow!! I'm whackethed!! o.0 *thinks* (Whackethed?? AH!! I'm talking Shakespearean!!))
To Lady-Drakin – All I can say is: You and your slash fictions... for shame... *runs off to Yu Yu Hakusho section to read some fun yaoi* (Random person: Hypocrite!!)
Until next time, fare thee well and wish me good luck of regaining my health!! And... don't ask about Subaru's Walking Adventures. XD I am just a very sad person who has too much time of their hands and enjoys poking fun at the fact that an entire episode of X consisted of Subaru walking and hallucinating.

*~* Chapter 6 – The Night of TERROR *~*
"So... this is Survivor?" Ivy asked, staring at the TV.
"Yup!" Talim smiled, "Isn't it great??"
Ivy shrugged, "Adequate, I suppose."
"What are you talking about!?" exclaimed Raphael, "It's terrible!! Absolutely revolting!"
Mitsurugi seemed entranced, "It's like my everyday life..."
...... Silence ......
"I wish that Big Brother were on... The drama! The passion!" Xianghua sighed dreamily.
Astaroth wrinkled his nose, "Too cheesy, worms..."
"Cheesy worms?!" Cassandra exclaimed, "GROSS!!"
"Like maggoty cheese!" Cervantes grinned, "Which would be from my favourite reality show..."
"Fear Factor!" Yoshimitsu recalled.
"Precisely!"
Talim tilted her head, "I thought no one here watched TV..."
"We lied," everyone said at the exact same time.
"Oh..." Talim felt insulted.
"I like The Bachelor and The Bachelorette!" Sophitia brought the conversation back on track, "Finding your soul mate on a TV show is so romantic!"
"Souls?? WHERE!?" Nightmare looked around frantically. Oh... and he now had clothes on. Armour, as always. What he chose to wear under it this time... well, that's his secret.
"Soul MATES, genius." Sophitia rolled her eyes.
Nightmare slowly sat down on the couch, "Oh... well... shows like that are totally lacking! I mean... where the deceivedness??"
"Uh... they could all just be a bunch of horny liars," Yunsung answered, "That seems rather deceiving to me. But what do I know?"
Mina rolled her eyes, "Nothing..."
"It's a rhetorical question, Mina."
"That never seems to stop YOU from answering them!" Mina snapped.
Yunsung shrugged, "Fair enough."
"Do you know what has lies AND romance??" Cassandra then answered without waiting for reply, "Joe Millionaire!!"
"That's kind of lost its spark with me," Sophitia said. "I mean... there are only so many seasons it can manage to live for before they run out of countries who haven't heard of it."
Kilik sighed, "I think that all reality shows are lame. Could they be any FURTHER from REALITY??"
"Hya, yaaaaa, hya hya!" Link shouted.
"OK, OK. The Amazing Race is pretty cool."

Some of the warriors were still asleep... but unfortunately for Nightmare, Necrid, Astaroth, Cervantes, Ivy, Charade, Yoshimitsu and Taki... they woke up just in time for Namika and Talim's duet of the Arthur theme song.
"Every day when you're walking down the street, everybody that you meet, has an original point of view! And I say HEY, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, where we can learn to work and play, and get along with each other..."

"Yes?"
"EXACTLY!!"
"Hey! What a wonderful kind of day... Hey! What a wonderful kind of day... HEY!!" Namika and Talim completed.

"It's his fault that you're here."
"Tell us something that we DON'T know!" said Yunsung.
"I bet that you didn't know that I know your height, weight, blood type, birthdaye, family, discipline, weapon/weapon name and past by heart, Yunsung!" Namika smiled triumphantly.
"That's... kind of creepy..."
Hearts filled Namika's eyes anime-style.
"That's... also creepy..."
"Namika!!" Mina waved her hand in front of Namika's face, "Snap out of it!!"
Namika shook her head to return to normal, "Ahem! Sorry about that... As I was saying, the Ferry Man left you here. BUT, to find out their identity and why they left you here, you must past a series of test-thingies..."
"Hya, ya??" Link asked.
Everyone awaited a translation... but it never came!!
"...where's Kilik?" Cassandra looked around blankly.
"Oh crap!!" exclaimed Xianghua, "He went to find something to prove that Namika is against us!!"
"WHAT!?" Namika screamed, "That idiot!! You had all better hope that he didn't touch Subaru's Walking Adventures!!"
Blank stares.
"... just follow me, you fools!!"
And so the warriors followed Namika to find what the hell had happened to Kilik... and no, he isn't dead!
*~* End of Chapter 6 *~*
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Well, Kilik's Peril has begun... hooray!! Now, to peoples...
To Sea Wolf – So... as I said, Kilik is getting into peril! ^^ And... I've never heard of Guilty Gear, but I visited your Kilik site!! It rocks!
To Bakuraluver4ever - *shifts away*
To Xenomina – Well, if I do put you in, it won't be for a while... (I have a lot of previously-written chapters that I must change the formats of...)
To Some Mabas Guy – I WISH Nightmare would wear a pink, frilly dress shirt!! Heh... that'd be awesome. XD But, alas, he's wearing armour again. And huzzah for Ocarina of Time!! WHOO!!
To Lady Manson – Ow!! I'm whackethed!! o.0 *thinks* (Whackethed?? AH!! I'm talking Shakespearean!!))
To Lady-Drakin – All I can say is: You and your slash fictions... for shame... *runs off to Yu Yu Hakusho section to read some fun yaoi* (Random person: Hypocrite!!)
Until next time, fare thee well and wish me good luck of regaining my health!! And... don't ask about Subaru's Walking Adventures. XD I am just a very sad person who has too much time of their hands and enjoys poking fun at the fact that an entire episode of X consisted of Subaru walking and hallucinating.
