One Weird Enemy

Beastfire: Chapter 11 is here! HOO-HAH!

Ivy and Frus looked through the Citadel of Bone for an exit, inspecting the others' weaponry along the way.

"Dude, this sword is SWEET! Love the craftsmanship on it," Ivy admired, examining the sword that Frus used to slice Skeleton King's arms off.

"Thanks. And what are those called, again? You know, the weapons you found?" Frus asked interested.

"The big huge one is a bazooka and the smaller one's an AK-47."

"Really? Nice."

"Remember the look on Skeleton Creep's face when you made the sword point right at him?"

"Yeah. Remember how he cried like a baby when you set fire to his arms?"

Both laughed at the state of their adversary, when a laser beam came from seemingly out of nowhere and hit Ivy in the tail. She let out a yelp of pain, turned around, and nearly fell down laughing at what she saw.

The Super Robot was now headed through space on its way to the Citadel of Bone.

"So, Antauri, what'd she have to say?" asked Chiro.

"She said she found alcohol and weapons," Antauri replied.

"Somehow, this ceases to amaze me," muttered Gibson.

Antauri had to smile at this undeniably true comment. This was completely in her character to find this stuff is the basic breakdown of what he thought.

"I also asked about Frus," continued the black monkey, "but she was unresponsive. I tried to tell her that he was still alive, but she put up a mental block."

Upon hearing of this, Nova, Sprx, and Otto grinned widely. They knew what THAT meant.

"Ivy actually likes somebody?" Sprx asked teasingly. "HA! I knew it!"

"Now she can't pick on me and Jet!" came Otto's ecstatic reply.

"Sounds like someone's got a boyfriend!" was Nova's triumphant reaction.

All three laughed, knowing Ivy's cynical view on love. Her experiences throughout life had left her a bit jaded, especially with love…

Back in the Citadel, Ivy was still laughing hysterically at the one who shot at her.

"Who are you?" Frus asked of the stranger.

The reply was only one word…"Sakko."

Yes, that evil gender bending little monkey with an eyepatch had arrived! He stood there in all his skirted glory.

Ivy was able to control herself enough to say, "Dude. The team told me about him. They said he was a dude that wore a skirt! I never thought I'd get the chance to insult him to his face!"

She lost control and laughed even harder, having to hold her gut because it was in so much pain. Sakko and Frus just stared.

"Are you quite done?" asked the monkey.

He was answered by even more laughter.

"So glad to see that my wardrobe strikes you as amusing."

More laughing, along with a, "Dude! That's too much! Put-just put it away, or my sides are gonna split!"

"Wait…you mean you're a- and that's a-" Frus began before breaking into laughter as well.

The evil monkey couldn't believe it. Somehow, he KNEW he should have chosen that battle armor rather than the skirt! But he was young and stupid at the time, and by the time he went back to "Evil Overlords 'R' Us" for the armor there was none in his size. He looked at the mutant and the half-Ethyal who were basically mocking his poor choice. 'If only I'd bought some of that Minion Mix,' he thought.

"And you call yourself evil?" Frus managed to say through his highly amused laughter.

Finally, Sakko had decided that he'd had enough, and whipped out two laser guns, aiming one at each of his insulters. They stopped laughing to look at the weapons that were now pointed at them. Ivy responded by putting the bazooka to Sakko's gut, and Frus picked up his sword and brandished it menacingly. Sakko was obviously not expecting this, and he got so scared that he took off running, believing them to be crazy enough to blow him to pieces and slice said pieces.

"WIMP!" they called after him before breaking into more laughter.

"Y'know what?" Frus said. "I kinda like that guy."

"I know exactly whatcha mean…he's really good for a laugh!"

It took a while for them to compose themselves and get back to their search. They finally found a potential way out, but then common sense took over, as they realized they were in space and neither of them could breathe in that expanse. Well, okay, Ivy could if she created a water bubble large enough to hold her, but Frus wouldn't be able to…and Ivy didn't even think of the whole "bubble" plan at the time. Before they could look for another way out, Sakko returned, with all of his weapons. But these were no ordinary weapons…they were brand new experimental ones.

First, he lashed out at Frus with a ball that contained a net. Frus had no idea what was in the ball, but he knew it couldn't be good, so he dove out of the way. Ivy saw it coming at her and tried to throw herself out of the way, but wasn't so lucky, as she tripped over her own feet. The net hit her and pinned her to the wall. She tried to set it on fire but it was fireproof. So, she tried to rip it apart, but the more she attempted to get out, the more it constricted. Now, she was angry, and telepathically communicated with Sakko, forcing him to see many disturbing images. What these images were, I can't say…but they involved Sakko and the spiked punch at the Christmas party. As Sakko clutched his head in torment, Frus took this chance to slash the net and free Ivy. She flew over to Sakko and set his tail on fire. The monkey ran around screaming like a little girl. He managed to put the fire out and attempted to attack them. This time, Frus ran at him with his sword and sliced Sakko's tail off. Now Sakko clutched where his tail used to be, and began crying and swearing his revenge on them…on Frus in particular.

They got to another part and a hole was formed. They saw a giant metallic hand come through the hall and expected the worst…

That is where I end it! That's it for chappie 11! Next time, we see what the hand was attached to, and someone returns…

Ivy: Another cliffy?

Frus: The girl's obsessed!

Beastfire: That I am! See ya later! Please review!
