Sorry for the delay! I've been busy with Megaman Battle Network 5!

Chapter 13: Soup is Bad. Mmmkay?

" What the heck was that fish! That thing almost killed us!" Ghost shouted at Bug.

" It was called a Guardian Angel, yes. They protect Hal. Most of them have both Silhouette and Mirage elements, eem." Bug replied.

" Silhouette? Mirage? What in the world are you talking about?" Boomer asked as he polished the blade to a katana he picked up on the train.

" And what was with that Zohar guy?" Snow added.

" I'll answer one of the questions. When Edo went berserk, it caused what is now called Armageddon. During this event, all life forms were affected. They either became a Silhouette and was ruled by Medigo, or they became a Mirage and were ruled by Hal." Shyna explained.

" Wow. It sounds like those guys didn't get along too well." Techno pondered.

' But now they've reached an agreement. They both want us dead.' Scribbles wrote.

" Time to go, yes!" Bug chimed in as he opened a portal. The crew appeared in a city. A sign read, 'Welcome to Cute Little Town! Population: Enough to make your head spin!'

" Let's get something to eat…" Flash said. Shyna shook her head and pointed to a television studio. As they entered, security cameras caught the scene. Scribbles saw the camera and wrote 'All of your base are belong to Scribbles!' In the main lobby, the crew came across two hallways.

" Okay. Shyna, you, Scribbles, and me will go left. Snow, Boomer, Techno, and Flash will go right." Ghost instructed. The two groups went down their respective hallways. The group of four found their way onto a cooking set. The show was on the air.

" And now, let's see how the tacos are coming along… What are you doing? Get out!" the chef yelled at the chao. Flash climbed up to the counter so he could get a better look at the chef.

" Listen, I am so hungry right now. You do not want to mess with me or my posse here, so GIVE US FOOD! Snow, take out the camera now!" the azure chao ordered. The gray chao turned off the rolling cameras as Flash and the others dug into the tacos. Ghost and company wandered onto a stand-up comedy set. Scribbles climbed into the drum set as Ghost pulled up a stool and took the microphone. Shyna sat in the audience.

" Good afternoon! It's great to be here. I just flew in here form another dimension, and boy are my arms tired!" Ghost joked as Scribbles hit the drums. The audience erupted into laughter.

" You know, the post office is strange. I took a package to be shipped. The lady behind the counter said that I needed more postage because it was too heavy. And I said, 'Wouldn't that just make it heavier?' Thank you. You've been a great audience. Don't forget to tip your waitress. Good night!" the pale chao ended as he dashed offstage, followed by Scribbles and Shyna.

" Snow, pass me the hot sauce. This taco is blah." Flash said as he bit into a taco. When the bottle was passed to him, he put a few drops on it and took another bite. The blue chao's eyes widened.

" This…is…GREAT! We need a few bottles of this stuff." Flash said as he started to search for more sauce.

" We should get going. The guys could be in trouble." Boomer reminded.

" After we finish these tacos. Can't let them go to waste." Techno replied with a mouthful of taco. Snow ripped a tarp off of an object.

" Sweet! A turntable along with some records. Let's rock later." She exclaimed.

" Let's go. I saved some for the others. And I found some sauce!" Flash said.

"Lookee! Lookee! I got a cookie!" Boomer sang as he waved a cookie. The quartet ran out of the kitchen as the others broke the door down to the manager's office. The chair turned around, revealing man with green hair and a long nose.

" So, Hal was correct. The Messenger is here. My name is Delia. I'm impressed that you made it here, but I'm afraid that you must die. It is time for my show." Delia stated as he pressed a button under his desk. The floor opened up from under the trio and they fell down below and landed on a board floating in a gigantic pot of soup. Delia appeared with a chef hat.

" Welcome to Delia's Cooking Hour. Today, we make Chao soup. First you need vegetables as well as tenderized chao." The man announced as some pumpkin heads started to toss carrots and celery into the pot. It was then that Boomer, Flash, Snow, and Techno ran into the office and noticed the hole in the floor.

" Hey, I hear the others down there. I think they're in trouble. Let's go." Boomer stated as he jumped in, followed by the rest of the gang. They landed on the platform.

'What's up?' Scribbles wrote when the four chao got up.

" Mmm. Something smells good. What is it?" Flash asked.

" Chao soup." Ghost gulped.

" Dude… this tastes weak. It needs some spice." The sonic chao said as he pulled out a bottle of hot sauce and dumped the whole thing in the soup. Delia took a sip of the soup and almost choked. He slumped down, suffering from the worst case of heartburn in history. The pot of soup tipped over, causing a tasty wave to flood the streets. Bug fished the tiny warriors out of the sea of calories.

I promise that I'll update more. I've almost beat BN5 any way.
