A/N: Boun giorno! Who's up for a new chapter of S.I.N.? crickets chirping Huh? Anybody? Ah, well! Thanks for reading, so far.
Ivy: I still say you're trying to kill me.
Beastfire: You don't want to know what I have planned for later in the story.
Ivy: We all know that Beastfire doesn't own SRMTHFG, or Senya, or anything but me.
Beastfire: And, this next message goes for the rest of the story too, so pay attention: Sorry if anyone is out of character, because I'm a psycho. Right?
Beastfire's (few) friends: She scares us with her craziness!
A while later, they took a break to recover. Nova was a bit worried as she asked, "Ivy, are you sure you know what you're doing?"
The aforementioned meerkat poked her head out from behind Nova's back.
"Don't question my genius," she snapped crazily.
Nova and Senya just had to laugh. Ivy? A genius? Somehow, they couldn't see it. Ivy wasn't too happy, and retaliated.
"Oh, crap. That's not good."
The laughter ceased.
"What happened! What's wrong," both monkeys asked in alarm.
Ivy smirked. She was just loving this.
"There's some weird mind control chip in here. Plus, we're lacking the parts to fix these rocket packs. You have three days to live."
There was stunned silence, then Ivy could be heard laughing to herself. Senya and Nova got really annoyed, really fast. Each of them smacked her upside the head, which only resulted in the most irritating smat-aleck grin ever. She'd succeeded in annoying them.
"Tell us the truth," Senya told her.
"Okay, okay," Ivy said, trying unsuccessfully to stop laughing. "I lied about the chip." She took on a more serious tone. "But on a more serious note, the rocket packs are shot, and I doubt any of us has the parts, or the money to buy the parts, to fix 'em."
Neither primate knew what was worse: the fact that they still couldn't find Chiro, or the fact that Ivy was actually right. Changing the subject, Nova brought up the topic of embarassing memories.
"I remember when the team met Scrapperton and he took our hands. Well, when we got them back, I was really happy."
"My babies," Nova said, rubbing her fists against her face. "I'm glad to have you back my babies!"
As she caressed them, the team looked at her strangely. She stopped with sheer mortification.
They all got a good laugh out of it. Senya went next.
"Okay, so, I was out ice skating once, right? Well, this guy was skating behind me, with really big feet."
The guy with huge feet stepped on Senya's blade, bringing her down flat on her face in front of everyone. She blushed as he apologized.
"I'm sorry," he said. "I'm so very sorry."
Senya would have forgiven him, if she wasn't so embarrassed.
They all laughed even more. Now it was Ivy's turn.
"Well, before I came here, I lived in Megakat City, and it was really cold out one day."
It was a really cold day in Megakat City, which included the hangar that contained the SWAT Kats' Turbokat. Ivy and T-Bone were arguing…again. She was hovering by the jet when she stuck her tongue out, lost her balance, and got her tongue stuck to the jet.
The resulting laughter was even greater.
"Then, it took Razor 10 hours to remove my tongue from the Turbokat. I think T-Bone still has the footage. Of course, he entered it on 'Megakat City's Dumbest Home Videos'…and it won."
Even more laughter followed. Senya and Nova were rolling on the ground, tears streaming from their eyes. At this time, Ivy noticed something.
"Hey, anyone else notice what our initials spell?
Silence. They hadn't thought of that.
"Give up? They spell 'sin'."
"Are you sure," Senya asked. "'Cause they can also spell 'ins'."
"But it doesn't have the same ring to it," added Nova.
A wave of agreement washed over the three, who then decided to get moving again.
That does it for chapter 3. Next time, Sprx and Otto interrogate the Sun Riders, and the girls encounter a giant cat.
Ivy: Giant cat? This can't end well.
Beastfire: Do you think I'm evil?
Ivy: I think that's an understatement.
Beastfire: Bye! Tune in next week (yes, I've decided to do this each week) same bat-time, same bat-channel. theme from "Batman" plays
