Chapter Five: GRRL, you best be backin' up!

Yet again, Èomer was feeling slightly annoyed. The meeting was already forty-five minutes late due to the Yayas' Round Table and now they weren't even getting started as Emily, the self-proclaimed leader of the discussion, had to get her things in order.

She handed the RULE book to Rachael, who has nice hand-writing, along with a feathered sparkly-inked gel pen. She handed an embroidered pillow to Lan. The pillow was holding the Cattle-Prod of Public Service. Finally, to Tama, she handed to Granola Bars of Useful Fulfillment and two pitchers in which she was supposed to make iced tea and lemonade. For herself, she kept the Magical Box of 64 Crayons that Provide Glee and Purpose in One's Life and a Disney Princess Colouring Book, although the Gavel of "This Conversation Has Gone Too Far!" was within easy reach.

Èomer was trying not to be irritable as he tried to start the meeting.

"As I was going to say-" he began, but suddenly there was a loud beeping noise.

"Oh, darn," said Emily, looking down at her waist. The three Yayas followed suit, only at their own waists.

"What now?" sighed Èomer.

"Our beepers," said the girls.

They pointed to their waist upon which sat a utility belt. In the middle was something like a large reflector like one would see on the side of the road or on a bicycle or something. Each was engraved with the Yayas respective letter and sign. The reflector was currently blinking and flashing.

"Normally, we use them to find each other," explained Rachael, "We just press the button and each of our belts sends up a beam of light into the sky so we can find the other."

"Yes?" asked the people gathered.

"But today this means that someone has either violated the code of the Yayas or broken one of the RULES of the Universe," said Lan.

Despite himself and his wishes to get this meeting over with, Èomer felt himself intrigued.

"So, what do you do now?" he asked.

"Well, we'll follow the beeping until we find the cause," said Tamela.

So the four Yayas, Èomer and Èowyn all got up and left the round table and wandered around Edoras looking for the violation/violators. They were on the outreaches of town when they beeping got faster and louder. It lead them to the public outhouse. (Does it exist? YOU'LL NEVER KNOW!) Peeking inside, the Yayas immediately recognized the violation of the RULES of the Universe.

"HOW DARE THEY?" gasped the Yayas.

Èomer and Èowyn both saw something odd in the outhouse but nothing out so ghastly as what the Yayas saw. Written in bright blue crayon was this: "Elijah Wood Loves Me For-Eva!"

"OH, GRRL," said Emily, "You best be steppin' back!"

"I don't understand," said the brother and sister.

"Elijah Wood is destined to love me and me only," said Emily, "Even if he doesn't know it yet!"

"We must find the perpetrator!" said Lan and Rach.

"And we must clean up this foul piece of...mess..." said Tama.

"Thank goodness it wasn't written in one of my crayons," said Emily to Tamela., referring to Magical Box of 64 Crayons that Provide Glee and Purpose in One's Life, "Then it would really take you forever."

"Yeah," Tamela started to agree, the realizing what Emily had said, she started to protest, "Wait-"

"Too late!" called the other three.

They then ran off, leaving Tama with the bucket, soap and lemon juice that had magically appeared to help her. Tama got to work, grumbling all the while.

"First, I'm a dwarf, and then I'm cleaning outhouses?" she said, "Something good better happen really soon!"

Èomer and Èowyn, while having no clue who this Elijah Wood fellow was, were even more intrigued by the sudden change of events. They followed the remaining three Yayas into the marketplace.

"Magic Powder," said Emily, by way of command.

Lan reached into Emily's bag an pulled out a small container of sparkly powder. She handed it to Rachael in a processional manner and then Rachael handed it to Emily in the same way. Emily unscrewed the lid, and then, as everyone held their breath to see what would happen next, she took a handful and threw it up into the air.

"Perpetrator!" she yelled, "Reveal yourself!"

There as a great pause as everyone watched the sparkles fly up into the air and then fall down onto everything in the market area. There was another pause as they waited for the apparent results.

...

Nothing happened. Now everyone was disappointed, as well as covered in incredibly sparkly sea foam sparkles .

"What?" asked Emily, confused.

"What's supposed to happen?" asked Èomer.

"The powder goes up in the air and comes down, but only the guilty party is covered in sparkles, and they should be red anyway," said Emily, still confused. Rachael took the powder from her and took a closer look. She rolled her eyes and turned to Lan.

"What?" asked Lan.

"Does this look like Magical Powder to you, Lan?" asked Rachael, exasperatedly. Emily took the container from Rachael, read it and then sighed as well.

"I was like..." said Lan.

"What, Lan?"

"I was like..." said Lan

"What, Lan?! What were you like?!" shouted Emily and Rachael.

"I was like..." said Lan

"WHAT, LANNY?!?!" asked the two.

"It's very sparkly," said Lan, unabashed.

Rach and Emma rolled their eyes and dug through Emily's bad until they found the real Magical Powder, not just the sparkly eye shadow that had cleverly masqueraded as Magical Powder. Yet again, Emily took a handful and threw it up in the air, yelling the magic words. The townspeople took no notice, especially as they were not eager to be covered in even more sparklies, nor did they wish their goods and wears to be covered in said glitter. (A sparkly apple may look appetizing, but it's dreadful on the palate.)

"You know, it does look an awful lot like the real Magical Powder," said Èowyn, examining both containers.

"Really, Èowyn, really?" asked Rachael in a sarcastic voice, before Emily hit her in the nana with both exasperation and excitement. Everyone turned to look as they saw a red-covered figure dart into an ally-way.

"After them!" called Emma, and all of the group ran after the perpetrator.

"YOU?" exclaimed Rachael, Lan and Emily as they all cornered the mystery person in the corner.

DUN-DUN-DUN!

AN Heehee, that was fun. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Did you? Much love to all reviewers. Go check out my BFF Lan's Wicked College Story thing. ( ) (I'm in it, and that should be enough incentive for anyone.) Write me! LOVE!
