A/N: Since I ranted so freakin' long last chapter, I'll just give you a disclaimer and any notes. XD

Disclaimer: So far, we haven't been sued. Hopefully, things will stay like that. So, please don't sue. I'm just some school girl who writes fanfics because she can't make up her own stories and loves the characters from ToS and likes to manipulate them. She wished she owned the new issues of Nintendo Power, but she hasn't gotten any for a while and she's starting to get worried that the subscription never renewed. . .

Banana Mana Mania

Chapter 3

Once the group entered the museum, they immediately went for the books about the Giant "Yggdrasill" Tree (as it was now called.) Of course, they had to look it up as Giant "Kharlan" Tree, but that's not really important for you to know.

I think?. . .

"Hey, guys, I think I found something!" Colette pulled out a book.

"Animals During the Great Kharlan War. This is during the war, Colette," Raine pointed out.

"We can always give it a shot." She opened the book. Animal after animal showed up on the pages. "Ooh! Look, the monkeys!" Hearing her, the rest dropped their books and gathered around.

"Storwee time!" Lloyd shouted.

"Shhh, this is a library!" a random librarian shouted.

"It's a museum, random librarian lady."

"My name is Jill, you freak." And she went back to reading her book on dolphins. How to Kill a Dolphin.

"Hey, look!" Genis pointed. "It says. . .

'Monkeys were never used in the Great Kharlan War. They lived by the Great Kharlan Tree, which was originally a banana tree, because when the elves landed on the planet, they especially liked bananas. But no, reader, they were not monkeys too. The bananas on the Giant Kharlan Tree were special, because they were also chock-full of mana. The monkeys, feeding on only these bananas, eventually ate all of the bananas. Once the tree did not give more fruit, the monkeys turned on the elves. So, the elves went to the the Secret Monkey Temple, faced the Great Monkey Trials, and took the Great Banana Rod. Using this Great Banana Rod, they defeated the ancestors of the monkeys, forgetting two so that they bred, and monkeys are again on the planet. After they defeated the monkeys, they returned the Great Banana Rod and went back to the war.

Their ancestors, looking and being named exactly the same thing, monkeys, now reside peacefully in random places with trees, most preferably forests. Supposedly, anyway.'"

Blink blink. "So, we have to go to this temple, face some trials, and get a rod?" Zelos spoke up. "Piece o' cake!"

"But where's the temple?" Raine asked, and like magic, a piece of paper fell out of the book.

"Hm, what could this be?" Regal picked it up and unfolded it. "It's a map!"

"That's amazingly convinient," the chief of Mizuho commented.

"That's awesome!" cheered Lloyd.

"Shhh!! Shut the heck up so I can finish my book on killing dolphins!-- er, I mean, germs. Killing germs in the shape of dolphins. Oh, it's Lysol and pine scented things. . ." Jill's eyes shifted left and right.

Banana Mana Mania

"I'll take a Double Quarter Pounder with bacon and cheese please," Lloyd ordered.

"Is that a meal?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"You pig!" the professor smacked him over the head.

"Hey, I'm freakin' starving here!"

"Is that all?"

"Yes," Raine said as Lloyd went to retrieve his meal.

"Your total comes to. . . $45.87."

"Stupid people, how do I get stuck with them?" Raine groaned as she paid the clerk.

"I know what you mean," she commented as she took the money. "And $4.13 is your change." Raine stuck out her hand to receive four one dollar bills, a dime, and three pennies.

Raine left for the table, which was actually two tables pushed together. Genis had four different small containers of ketchup residing by his fries.

"Genis, your arteries are gonna be clogged," Sheena pointed out.

"But ketchup is one of the best foods EVAR!" He dipped a fry in one container, dripping with ketchup, and ate it. "Heaven. . . McDonald's has the best ketchup. . ." He fell into a daydreamy state as the others sighed.

"I can't believe we found a map to McDonald's!" Regal said. "I've been searching for one of these places for years, but I wasn't sure if I'd ever find one!"

"Oh-oh-oh, Ketchup. . ."

"It's a good thing we found a map to the Great Monkey Temple too!" Colette pulled out another piece of paper.

"Uh, we did?" The rest at the table blinked, except for Genis who was fantasizing over ketchup. But who could blame the little guy, I mean, come on, McDonald's does have the best ketchup in existance!

"So, are we going there after we eat?"

"Of course!" Lloyd took the map, but then his eyes widened. "Um, Colette, this is the McDonald's map."

"No, it couldn't be, I have the map right here." Regal pulled out another piece of paper.

"What?!" Zelos took both papers, and inspected them. "Well, hey, my hunny found an odd map. It's labeled, 'The Great Monkey Temple,' but it's labeled right where McDonald's is!"

"Maybe the entrance to the temple's in McDonald's?" Colette suggested.

"That's crazy talk!" Lloyd said.

"The probability of the entrance being in McDonald's: 76.3498672 percent."

"Wow, she said something understandable!"

"I do not wish to witness your head implode."

"Oh. Hey, wait a sec--"

"Let's see!" Sheena walked to the counter and to the clerk from earlier. "Hey, um, this is gonna sound really strange, but um, is the entrance to the Great Monkey Temple here?"

"Oh, so you guys are the group that Snoopy was talking about!"

"Snoopy?. . . "

"Some crazy guy with blue hair dressed as Snoopy told me you guys would be here. Yeah, the entrance is here, but it's um. . . in the closet of the men's bathroom."

"You're kidding?. . ."

"Nope." She shook her head. "But the bathroom's closed because I set up that sign, so there won't be any guys in there. Open the closet, and take out the mop. The entrance of the temple should open. Good luck, I've got to take more orders."

Sheena nodded and returned to the table.

"Hey, Sheena's returned to the table!"

"Stupid, the authoress just said that!"

Lloyd got a smack over the head from Raine for that one.

"The entrance is in the guy's bathroom. It closed right now, so we can go in. We're supposed to open the closet and take out the mop, so that the entrance is opened."

"Sounds like a plan to me," Regal said, and they all got up. Well, Genis was still enjoying his ketchup. Looking back, Raine was forced to get her brother away from the ketchup.

"NO! MY KETCHUP!! NOOO!!" Genis was finally pulled off of the table and led to the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Raine pulled out the mop. A low rumble was heard, and realization hit the group as the side of the closet had opened.

"Temple! History! Knowledge!!" the giddy professor shouted as she ran in.

"Oh. . . great. . ." Lloyd and Genis groaned as the rest followed.

A/N: I just realized it's 10:15, and I haven't packed at all yet. o.o; Oh well, I'll get it later then. I just need some clothes, money, and my fanfiction works and sketchbook. (Not that my sketchbook means anything to you, I don't have a scanner. . .)

Speaking of sketches and such, I did a doodle of me and Kratos talking about cookies. Though it's completely random and odd, I'm quite proud of it because it looks good. (I did it on Microsoft Paint and it looks okay!) I'm getting better at doodling on the computer! (Yay!) And Kratos looks chibish! XD Well, the whole thing is chibi, but, yeah.

Now it's time for a quick song!
