Okay, everyone, I'm back! I didn't have time (sad, I know, but such is life…) to actually go through the movie so here's a little blurb on between-movie-scenes (remember they were getting popcorn at the end of last chapter?). Enjoy, and please read and REVIEW! (your comments are greatly appreciated :D)
Oh, and on clarification—thanks, The Princess Anna Valerious!—here's a few tips so that I don't end up writing the names each time (part of the point is to know the characters well enough so that you can tell who's speaking):
Dracula: says "Gabriel" and is the only one who says "monk". He speaks more formally as well (and no, I'm NOT doing that fake accent stuff)
Anna: more "normal" speech; she calls VH "Gabriel" or "Van Helsing" (the latter when she's annoyed with/mad at him)
Carl: more timid; always says "Van Helsing"
Van Helsing: says retarded stuff (mostly protestations and random bits of song) (usually I'll write his name on there)
(rumbling)
"What was that?"
"Oh, calm down, Carl, it's just thunder."
"But…"
(laugh) "Leave the monk alone, princess. He's already scared being in the room with me…aren't you, MONK?"
"I…but…yes."
"Exactly." (pause) "Gabriel, whatever are you doing?"
"Yes, Gabriel, what are you doing?" (Anna)
"Um…Van Helsing? I don't think that's such a good idea…"
(Crash)
"Gabriel!" (Anna)
"Well, he vasn't supposed to be standing on his head in the first place; what did you expect?" (Dracula)
"You're not helping."
"Am I supposed to be?" (laughs evilly) "I vote that we forget about the movie and watch your 'hero' attempt acrobatics." (pauses) "Monk, what exactly were in those brownies?"
(silence)
"Carl! What did you do?" (Anna)
(A bit sheepishly) "Well, he wouldn't shut up, so I added a little bit of…you know that green bottle that I have in my laboratory? Well, it's supposed to make you go to sleep, but…"
(Shocked silence)
(Titter…giggle…snort…) "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" (Anna and Dracula)
"I'm-" Gasp "-proud-" choke "-of you-" wheeze "-monk!" (Dracula)
"What's so funny? And why am I upside down?"
"Sorry, Gabriel, we…" (burst of hysterical laughter from Anna) "…we…"
(Screech) "IT'S THAT TWISTED LITTLE MAN AGAIN! CARL! WHERE IS MY CROSSBOW! HE'S DANCING AROUND MY HEAD! OHGODOHGODOHGODOHGOD MAKE IT STOP! MAKE IT STOP!"
(Fizzling sound followed by loud POP)
"-bleep-!" (Dracula)
"What happened to the lights?"
"You tell us, Carl, you're the scientist."
"Okay, everyone remain calm. VAN HELSING, STAY WHERE YOU ARE! (Crash) Damn it. You just never listen, do you?"
"Ow."
"All right, everyone, it's just a thunderstorm…" (Carl)
"Hey! Does that mean we can't watch the movie?" (Van Helsing)
"Forget about the movie. The microwave won't work!" (Anna)
"WHAT!" (Dracula)
"Okay…calmly…"
"Don't tell me to be calm, monk. My popcorn is gone!"
"Well, at least you can see in the dark."
"No, I can't."
"Oh."
(Silence)
"Why are you touching my hand, Dracula?" (Anna)
"I'm not touching you, you're touching me."
"It doesn't matter who's touching whom, you morons! The microwave's turned off!" (Carl)
"Right. So, who wants to be the first to navigate this room?" (Anna)
"What? What do you mean?"
"Well, with Gabriel's billiard balls all over the floor…" (Dracula)
"Hey!"
"It is your fault. Don't try to blame the monk."
"Fine! I'll do it." (Anna)
(Couch shifts)
(Shriek…thud)
"Oof!" (Dracula)
"-bleep-, Van Helsing!"
"Get off me!" (Dracula)
"Sorry." (under her breath) "Stupid high heels!" (Couch shifts again) "Carl, your turn."
"Why is it always the friar?"
"Because no one likes you." (Dracula)
"Why not Van Helsing?"
"Because he can barely walk across the room when the lights are on." (Anna)
"Touché."
(Buzzing sound)
"Light!" (Anna, Carl, and Dracula)
"Brownies!" (Van Helsing)
"No more, Gabriel."
"But—"
"The movie's starting. Be quiet." (Anna)
Will our heroes—and villain—survive the billiard-ball-laden path to the microwave? What did Carl put into those brownies? Will they ever finish the movie? (Yes, they will…I just take a while to update :D )
PLEASE REVIEW!
