Here it is! The next chapter of "See No Evil"! I am so glad I could put this chapter up so soon, & I hope you will all enjoy it. Forgive me if the characters personalities or names are a bit off, I haven't played either of the games in years.
(I do not own Banjo Kazooie, & the online dating service in this story is fictional, any resemblance to dating services alive or dead is purely coincidental.)

(#2: "The E-mail of Destiny")
One week later, Tooty ran out to find Kazooie; she couldn't wait to tell her the news. She soon found who she was looking for sitting on the grass, resting after a long flight over Spiral Mountain. "Kazooie!!!" She shouted, slightly startling the resting breagull. "It came! It came! It came! It came!!!"
"What came?!" Kazooie shouted, her feathers bristling with anger at being disturbed by this annoying little brat.
"Your E-mail!" Tooty shouted with excitement as she stood next to Kazooie. "You got an E-mail saying that they found you a match!"
"They did?" Kazooie's eyes narrowed. "& how do you know this?"
"Well… um… I kinda found out your password & checked for you… sorry."
"You what!?! You little brat!! I ought to peck your eyes out!" then Kazooie realized something… the dating service had… found her a match? "What was that you were saying about 'a match'?"
"Oh yeah!" Tooty had regained her excitement. "Come see!" Tooty pulled Kazooie by the wing back to the house. When they arrived they found the computer still on, Banjo was still visiting Mumbo & Bottles (something Kazooie was very glad for. She would die of embarrassment if her best friend was to find out she was possibly about to get a boyfriend). Kazooie sat down at the computer desk & read the following E-mail: "Miss Sky, (She didn't dare put in her real name.) We have evaluated your information & have found what we consider to be a suitable match. His information is as follows.
Name: Ted
Sex: male
Age: 19
Occupation: none at the present time
Likes: ice-cream & carnivals
Dislikes: Witches, goblins, & evil monsters (who doesn't? was all Kazooie could say.)
Description: very even tempered, not very smart but not dumb either, good sense of humor, fun to be with, kind & understanding.
This person has been informed of you & if you both consent, you will meet at the Café Lenore tomorrow night at eight. Please send a reply if you wish to meet with the afore-mentioned person, & we will send a confirmation of the other party's wishes in the near future. Thank you for registering with '!"
"…I waited a week for that!?" Kazooie shouted when she was done reading. "They can't seriously think that that guy would be a good match for me! He's nothing like me!"
"Well, that is the point!" Tooty replied. "It would be boring to date someone just like you; it's much more fun to date someone who's a bit different."
Kazooie wondered once again where this little kid came up with this crap. "So you're saying that I should go on the date?"
"Well duh!! Of course you should! Heck, I would if I was old enough! He sounds like a nice guy."
"Oh fine. I'll send the reply. But I doubt this guy is gonna want to go out with me."
"Oh don't worry. With the way I helped you with your description there is no way this guy will turn you down."
Kazooie didn't admit it, but she was inwardly afraid that that would be the case.
Meanwhile, at Bottles' house, Banjo decided to check his E-mail on his friend's computer instead of risking Kazooie finding out his secret. To his shock he actually got an E-mail from the dating service!
"Well," Said Bottles as he stood next to Banjo. "Why don't you read it?"
"I can't," Banjo cried. "I just can't do it Bottles! I'm too nervous! This isn't just an E-mail… it's the E-mail of destiny!"
"Oh don't be such a drama queen! Read the darn thing already!"
"Well… okay… (Gulp!) Here goes!"
Banjo opened the little window which contained the following E-mail. "Mr. Ted, (Banjo was too nervous to use his real name so Bottles suggested that name.) We have evaluated your information & have found what we consider to be a suitable match. Her information is as follows.
Name: Sky (Sky? Banjo thought.)
Sex: female
Age: 18
Occupation: none
Likes: watching the clouds, a good morning run, & martial arts
Dislikes: cold weather, quick-sand, & toxic water (Me too. Banjo said to himself.)
Description: very athletic, strong, brave, smart, enjoys long walks."
The rest of the E-mail was similar to Kazooie's, including the "Thank you for registering with '!". Banjo wondered if he should indeed go out with this "Sky" person.
"Of course you should!" Bottles said, intent on getting his friend to go on a date. "This might be your only chance to meet the right girl Banjo. You must strike while the iron is hot!"
"Well…" Banjo replied, still unsure about the whole thing. "If you say so Bottles, I guess I'll give her a try. Who knows? Maybe I'll end up liking her!"
"Sure! I mean, she has to be better than Kazooie anyway!"
So Banjo sent a reply & went home. Neither Banjo nor Kazooie spoke to each other for the rest of the night & rarely even looked at each other, because they were too afraid that their secret would be revealed if they did. They ate dinner in silence & went to bed, neither one aware of the adventure that was soon to come for the both of them!

Well, there you have it. I apologise if I didnt acurately portay online dating services, I have no idea how they actually work.Please review & tell me what you think! (p.s. if anyone knows the name of Bottles' brother from Banjo Tooie, please tell me. I hope to inculde him in later chapters.)
