Chapter 5: The First Meeting

Beastfire: Hey! Here's chappie 5! Y'know, I just wanna thank everyone who has reviewed so far and also those of you who joined my C2! (tears form in her eyes) This is just so cool! (bursts into tears of joy and hugs everyone who reviewed and/or joined her C2)

Ivy: Well, here's the water works again! (all members of Anti-Mary Sue Alliance whip out umbrellas)

(Senya's POV)

Shorty, Ichigo and I walk through Shuggazoom. It's nice and cool out, but we haven't seen any sign of the Mary Sues yet. I feel really sorry for Jet; Otto's her husband and his mind's been taken over by one. I feel sorry for all of the other girls, but Ivy's lucky. She was able to prevent it from happening to her boyfriend. I know she won't admit it, but we all know she's in love! I look at Shorty and she's eying Ichigo hungrily for, like, the third time since we all left. I wonder where Shorty's from…

We all come to one building and Shorty and I both cringe…it's bright pink! Ichigo looks happy, though.

"I hate pink!" Shorty says. "It's a scary color!"

She turns into a mouse and hides behind me. I know how she feels. I don't like pink either.

Ichigo walks inside and we follow. The inside isn't much better. There's pink EVERYWHERE! As we walk through, Ichigo hovers happily in front of us. But Shorty looks kinda scared of something.

"There something wrong, Shorty?" I ask.

"Yeah," she says, "there's something in here with us."

"That's just me," says the leprechaun that lives in her stomach.

That leprechaun is disturbing, as is the door in Shorty's stomach. I don't know if I'll be able to look at food the same again. Oh, well, it could be worse. This place could be engulfed in flames. Then, I hear some weird noises.

"Shorty?" I ask cautiously, "Was that the leprechaun in your stomach again?"

"No," both Shorty and the leprechaun say.

More weird noises come.

"Did anyone else hear that?"

"No," says Shorty.

"I did!" Ichigo practically squeaked.

Poor Ichigo. I know it's rough when your boyfriend's mind is the stolen property of a Mary Sue. Uh…did I just admit that Gibson's my boyfriend? I mean…well, okay, I like Gibson. He's just really smart and we have a lot in common. I wonder if Ichigo and Antauri will ever get married. Then, we all hear more noises. All three of us turn to see Chiro and Sprx.

"Oh, good," Ichigo says relieved. "You guys are okay."

She goes over to them to give them a hug, but I notice that their eyes are still dark green.

"Ichigo!" I yell. "Look out!"

Ichigo dodges just in time to avoid Chiro's "Chiro Spearo" attack. Chiro comes at both her and me, while Sprx tries to attack Shorty. Well, apparently Shorty's still hungry because she attacks Sprx and eats his right magnet. It seems to distract him as Ichigo and I try to defeat Chiro without hurting him. The real Chiro just HAS to be in there! We dodge all of his attacks and Shorty reaches out and bites him, slowing him down, but unfortunately drawing blood. For a brief moment, his eyes go back to their normal blue color and he's still the Chiro that we know. As I try to approach him, he becomes a Mary Sue slave once more and tries to bite me. He runs over to Sprx and they both run off, probably to take care of the bites that Shorty inflicted. I can't help but feel bad for them. They're my friends, and they were hurt, even if they were under someone's control. I sure hope the others are having better luck.

Beastfire: That's it for chappie 5! Hope you all liked it! Next time, Nova, Lugh, and Jinmay meet with a couple more of the guys and learn what happened. Sorry it was such a short chappie, but, well, this heat wave where I live is messing with my head. At least I only have four more days of school…and those two Regents exams in History and Physics. in a later chapter. AND Senya will have another POV in chapters 12 and 15, in which EVERYONE has a POV! Cool, huh?

Ivy: Please review! AND SEND ICE! Senya looks like she's gonna get heat stroke any second here! Heck, I could get heat stroke! (uses her hydrokinesis to fill a pool and does a cannonball into it, splashing everyone else)
