People run in fear when they see my screen name….

Bad news people….it's happening again…A SPOONFUL OF DRAMA CHAPTER! Now, you pathetic fools must suffer a few moments of drama mixed in with gut splitting humor! PH34R! BWA HA HA HA HA! Well, it's only a little to be honest, and on Ryo's part. HOWEVER, to make up for it, I did an all new quicket just for you people!

Anyway, thanks for coming back, and I feel rested, refreshed, and as random as ever! So now, WOO HOO! NICE PEOPLE WHO REVIEWED ME!

Cute lil Yami

Yes…without insanity, what is life, but one long period when people ask over and over again 'How was your day?' and 'What do you want to do?'

I'm glad you liked Richard so much! I was just thinking up the usual qualities pirates usually are. You know, bloodthirsty seafaring psychos. However, the 'drama queen' idea just came out of absolutely nowhere, and I loved it! The same thing happened with the idea that pirates love a good story, and Little Red Ridding Hood the Seto Kaiba version really seemed to fit the mood.

If you do scare your sisters with it, give it to them in small doses. Don't want to ruin their poor innocent souls…unless it's to scare them off, in that case, go for it.

YAY! It's so great to see you, as I always enjoy people who love insanity, randomness, and CHEESE! Well, I'm not sure about the last one, but hey, it was random and insane right? HUGS! Come back sooney!

BlackJackal

Wow, I'm glad you like this story! Remember people, if you don't want to lose a good story in the massive depths of ff dot net, REMEMBER TO GET THE TITTLE AND AUTHOR! So ends this public service announcement.

Ryo does seem a little obsessive and loud back at boot camp, but then again, so am I, so that's where he gets it from. YES! Someone finally believes me about the terror of the Norwegian Butt Duck! Everyone thought I was crazy, but I knew! And you bet British Personas kick mucho butensio! And yes, I'm a Ryo fangirl myself.

Glad you found a story lost on the net, and even gladder it was mine and even gladdest you reviewed! Please come back and say hi!

Gothangelmyu

DARN! Why didn't I think of that?

Yeah, probably half the fun of writing that entire chapter consisted of writing Ms. Fuzzy-Kins' phone conversation and with ASV. He's not going to come back until next chapter though. In fact, we really don't see that much of Joey or Seto in this one, but we do see an old friend…

I don't know why, but somehow, whenever I write about Joey, a stupid poem or song idea pops into my head for him to sing. Don't ask me why. Though the first verse of the song 'My Father Used to be a Captain' came with the help of my brother, who says random crazy things all the time.

It's always fun to hear from you too! Thanks for the nice words, and I hope you enjoy a plateful of insanity!

Dark Princess Saz

I love Joey's songs too! They're random, funny, and insane!

That's probably the top three things people loved about this chapter: Joey's songs, Ryo's sailor suit, and ASV. I'm glad you loved them all, and Joey's hula outfit, which I found very amusing.

Well here's the next chapter for you! I hope you enjoy it!

Mizz-Serenity-Wheeler

Hiya! Wazzup?

Anyway, I'm glad you can speak Spanish! That was another fun thing about writing the last chapter. I can (pretend to) speak Spanish, but I'm sure you do a much better job than me. I'll probably never go to Spain anytime in this century.

I'm lookin' out for it! Can't wait, and this chapter should be (I hope) just as funny as the last, so enjoy!

Funky Egyptian

Yay! Happy belated birthday, I have a present for you…A SLEDGHAMMER! Everybody needs a sledgehammer!

Thank you for the congratulations, and the incredibly nice review! I hope you come back soon! And also enjoy this chappie!

Mokuba's Official Glomper

No, no, no. When I said fangirls, I meant the psycho, superhero fanigirls from a few chapters ago. They tend to crash parties a little…hard for my taste.

KFC…The Space Pigs…PH34R…

Anyway, I didn't know Sneaky Snake was an actual song! And who knows? Maybe one day, a hot Anime character will take you for their bride (I'm expecting nothing less). THE BOOBAHS ARE EVIL! (Shifty eyes) And beware of the bug zappers…oh yeah! ENJOY THE NEXT CHAPTERY!

Serenity-yugioh-fan05

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

Anyway, I'll hunt down your story ASAP to enjoy more insanity with our favorite weirdo friends! Come back soon!

TwinSanity

Can anyone truly understand the insanity?

'Head half empty person'. I LOVE THAT LINE! You should put it up in your 'random quotes from infamous folks'. Oh yeah, I SO CAN'T WAITSY FOR THE THE DELETED CHAPTER!

I also can't wait for another awesome chaptery. And the man eating fairies sound so awesome! AND I CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT THE PART SERENITY PLAYS! MUA HA HA! Please continue with your story, and enjoy this one!

Hypolitian Warrior (Formally known as Philsorapter

Boy, it seems like everyone's changing their screenames! Wowzers!

I thought the whole language barrier thing is a very funny thing in itself, because it's amazing how pretty a language is until you read the subtitles. My mom once pointed out that since we often don't understand what language Josh Groban is singing in, maybe he could be singing about him washing his canary in Italian or something. Then we actually translated it to find it was about lighting and oceans and junk.

That must have been a funny situation though.

WEEEE! SUGAR! (Bites into bag) You get the best gifts! I owe you one!

Bibo-Sama

Mua ha! I'm glad your amused!

Anyway, I can't wait to see this chapter of which you speak! But do tell me, what is a Mary Sue and who is Diana Wynn Jones? Sorry for sounding stupid. I just want to know.

Sorry. I know no Sams T.T. it was just a random name I picked. I bet its pretty hard. Stupid casinos. THERE EVERYWHERE!

Can't wait to see more insanity on your part, and I deeply hope you will enjoy my dose.

Lefthandedfreak

May I be the first to say that you are not a freak if your left handed! My dad's left handed, and he's one of the sanest people I know! Also, I have a friend who's left handed, and she is far from freaky!

Now it's the right handed freaks like me you need to keep an eye on…

That was so nice of you! PLUSHIES! (Huggles) Mmmm….SO SOFT! Yay! And thank you tonzies! Good luck on your own journey to being a psychotic Author! I hope you still like the story after this.

You know what this means!

Onto the craziness!

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

If I Only had a Huge Sea Monster

"I can't believe it," Serenity said, watching the waves cascade and over themselves as they got closer to land. "Joey…Seto…they're gone. They're both gone."

"I can't believe it," Ryo said. "Why did Joey have to jump in? I should have…"

"Uh, Ryo, what are you talking about?" Serenity asked. "That would be, I don't know, SUICIDE?"

"No, no, no, I don't mean it that way!" Ryo said. "The thing is…remember when I got possessed by the psycho spirit of the Ax of Insanity?"

"I've tried to forget it, but yes," Serenity said.

"Well…Seto tried to stop him…despite his incredibly mean disposition…that makes me feel…like I owe him a favor…" Ryo said.

"Ryo, if you were dead, Seto wouldn't even come to your calling hours," Serenity said. "And Joey thinks 'left' is a type of eating utensil, so don't think he's going to come anytime soon either."

"THAT'S NOT THE POINT!" Ryo cried with tears in his eyes. "HE DID SOMETHING NO ONE ELSE EVER TRIED TO DO!"

"So that's why you're upset?" Serenity said. "You feel that you can't pay him back?"

"WHY DID I HAVE TO BE SUCH A COWARD?" Ryo screamed. "WHYYYYYYYYYYYY?"

With that, in sheer Ryo anger, Ryo pounded his fist on the guard rail around the ship, and smacked it clear in half. In fact, a huge crack ran right down the ship, chopping it in two halves, and causing it to sink.

"I'm going to have to ask you not to do that again," Serenity said.

"Sorry," Ryo said.

---ooo---

The receding tide left Joey completely washed up on a sandy beach, a tiny wave trying to creep up, but only to be pulled farther back into the ocean. It seemed rather peaceful. That is, until…

SMACK!

"Owchies!" Joey said, rubbing his hip where he got kicked.

"Darn. You're alive," Seto said. "That means if I have to eat you to survive, it would be considered morally wrong."

"TOOTH FAIRY!" screamed Joey, hugging Seto, a few tell tale sign muffled cracks, showing that he was breaking Seto's ribs. "WE'RE ALIVE! WOO-HOOOO!"

"You know, I used to enjoy that fact," Seto said. "Now it just annoys me. LET GO OF ME YOU STUPID MUTT!"

"Huh?" Joey said.

KA-POW!

With one punch, Joey flew right into a coconut tree.

"Oh perfect," Seto said. "Six billion people in the world, and out of every single one, I got stuck with Tweedle-Dumbest, high Emperor of Dumbsey Land, and ambassador of the People of Duh."

"Where's the cream filling?" Joey said, digging himself out of the crater he made in the coconut tree.

"IT'S BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALY RAN OVER THAT SQUIREL WHILE GUNNING IT ON I-90 ISN'T IT?" Seto screamed to the sky. "ARE YOU HAPPY YOU SPECTRAL LITTLE RAT WITH A BOTTLE BRUSH FOR A TAIL? GIVE ME A BREAK!"

There was a very angry silence.

"Do you need a huge to make you feel better Tooth Fairy?" Joey asked.

"Joey, the only thing that can make me feel better is if either I die of hunger or you get run over by a cruise ship and I get a free ride home," Seto said.

"So…no hug?" Joey asked.

Seto death glare.

"Okay, now we need to find a way out of here," Seto said, as Joey was left flinching on the ground in terrible pain. "Maybe I can create some sort of GPS device using the available resources. Okay, what have we got?"

He looked behind him. Nothing but coconut trees.

"Not much," he said.

"I GOTS AN IDEA!" Joey said. "Maybe, we can ask the coconuts for help!"

"Ask…the coconuts…" Seto said.

"Yep!" Joey said. "Everyone knows that coconuts are the wisest circles of the circle kingdom!"

"Joey, did you drink that stuff on the pirate ship Serenity told you not to drink?" Seto asked.

"Maaaaaaybe," Joey said, picking up the coconut. "Okay, what's your name…Jim? That's a pretty name…your welcome! Okay, now…your what? A law professor at Harvard? Cool…what's a Harvard?"

"WHY MUST YOU TOY WITH ME?" Seto yelled to the sky. "IF YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE ME, TAKE ME NOW YOU STUPID SQUIRLEL! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"

---ooo---

Serenity coughed out sea water as she dragged her sodden body up the sandy beach, clinging to Ms. Fuzzy-Kins in her arm, like a mermaid with a head cold. She had been through a lot, but that, that was just unfair.

"Okay Ryo," Serenity said. "We've swam ten miles to shore, received several threats from several angry pirates, and I had to beat up the only living species of fresh water sharks known to man. What have learned today?"

"Okay," Ryo said, wringing out his hair. "I learned to control my emotional outbursts, that open regret leads to nothing but pain, and to never back stroke in open sea, because their may be a shark with his mouth wide open who wants to swallow you up in one bite."

"Good enough," Serenity said, pulling sea weed and small sea animals out of her rusty brown hair. "Well…this is going to be hard. I don't know how I'll be able to go on without Joey and Seto…"

"SERENITY!" Ryo cried. "It just hit me!"

"I know," Serenity sighed. "It really does feel like Seto's right here with us…"

"No, not that kind of hit!" Ryo said. "You know how in the movies, when someone gets thrown off a ship, they usually ship-wash on some desert island?"

"So, maybe that's what happened to Joey and Seto, and they're alive!" Serenity said.

"Exactly!" Ryo said. "Maybe we can find some other seaman who knows this area, and he can tell us where Joey and Seto are."

"Yes! Hope!" Serenity cried happily. "Ryo, you're a genius!"

"I thought Seto was the genius," Ryo said.

"Well, ya, but you are too!" Serenity said.

"Well, that completely messes up my view of our roles as individual members of this team," said Ryo. "I thought you were supposed to be the kick-but leader who everyone roots for, Joey was supposed to be the well-loved comic relief, Seto was supposed to be the brains and cynical charm, and I was supposed to be the adorably sweet one that you have to be a heartless fool to hate. NOW I'M COMPLETELY CONFUSED!"

"You've been reading the reviews again haven't you?" Serenity asked.

MEANWHILE, IN THE PUB WELL KNOWM BY SEAMEN EVERYWHER, THE RUSTY, DINGY, AND SOMEWHAT MOLDY FORK! WoOoOoOoO!

"OI! I WON'T SETTLE FOR THIS!" screamed a very angry seaman, waving a huge cutlass around in a very threatening manor, staring at the TV that was hanging over the counter. "The Dalmatian's performance was completely lackluster compared to the Great Dane! WHAT ARE THESE JUDGES THINKING?"

"FIX! FIX! FIX! FIX!" screamed the other seamen, also watching the 579th Annual National Dog Show.

"ALRIGHT!" Ryo said, dramatically busting open the door to the Rusty, Dingy, and Somewhat Moldy Fork, trying to sound like someone from CSI. "WE'VE GOT QUESTIONS, AND WE AREN'T LEAVING WITHOUT ANSWERS!"

All of the angry sailors pulled out various swords and pointed them at Ryo.

"BLESS MY CARDIGAN!" Ryo cried. "Is that the 579th Annual?"

"HUZZAH!" screamed all the pirates with joy, tossing up their milkshakes and hot cocoas.

"Um, we're really sorry we bothered you," Serenity said, "but we kind of had a problem. You see, we were sailing out on the high seas, but two of our friends went overboard. Is there a man who knows the open seas like the back of his hand?"

All of the pirates pointed to a lone seaman in the corner of the room.

"HEY SERENITY!" Yugi said, swigging a mug of chocolate milk. "Sup?"

"Yugi?" Serenity asked. "What are you doing here? Aren't you the oppressive dictator of Munchkin Land?"

"Ah yes," Yugi said. "But such is a long and tiring profession, so I decided to take a break! Besides, I'm always here with my homies for the big game! Right guys?"

"YOU BETCHA!" screamed all the seamen and the barmaid.

"So anyway, what dya need with the whole seaman thing?" Yugi asked, taking a very long sip from his mug.

"Our two best friends got thrown off a boat about ten miles from here," Serenity said. "The thing is, are there any islands that they could have washed up on?"

"Well, I've got some good news and some bad news about that," Yugi said.

"The good news?" Serenity said.

"Well, the only person who has ever managed to sail to the Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort is The Dark Spirit of The Incredibly Steep Mountains," Yugi said.

"Uh…the bad news?" Serenity asked.

"The only person who has ever made it to the Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort is The-"

"Okay," Serenity said. "This Dark Spirit of The Incredibly Steep Mountains must be very hard to locate."

"Actually, no," Yugi said. "The Dark Spirit thing is about two blocks from here. Just go down Luzton Ave for two turns, and she's the first house on your left."

"Wow, uh, thanks!" Serenity said gratefully.

"Um, just how dangerous is the Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort?" Ryo asked with a hint of fear in his voice.

"I'll give you a hint," Yugi said. "It's called 'The Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort'."

"Eep," Ryo said softly.

"Bye!" Serenity said, dragging Ryo out.

"SEEYA!" Yugi called back.

---ooo---

TWO BLOCKS AWAY

"This place actually doesn't look so bad!" Ryo said happily, staring to the house two blocks away. It had an extremely happy feel to it, with fuzzy bunnies bouncing along the yard, a huge bed of assorted daisies, several lawn ornaments, and it was completely painted pink with a happy smiling sun shining right over it. Everything looked happy and peppy, and there was happy, picnicy music playing in the background to add to the atmosphere.

"Ryo, it was first house on the left," said Serenity, pointing to a huge, tall, pure black, haunted looking mansion with a dark thundercloud that was torn by lightning every few minutes for dramatic effect. Everything there was old and decaying, and it looked like the solid proof that most accidents are home related.

"Can't we go to that house anyway?" Ryo begged, pointing to the happy house.

"Come on," Serenity said, dragging him to the door of the scary house with broken windows and stuff.

Ryo was digging his heels in the ground and was trying to hold back as best as he could as Serenity pulled him along until they had made it to the entrance way to the door. It was painted black, and had little devils and dragons, and evil looking snake things carved on it, as well as a few skulls for dramatic effect.

Serenity rang the bell. It sounded just like a funeral march.

"Now's our chance to just walk away and pretend we weren't here," Ryo said, still trying to pull out of Serenity's iron grip.

"Ryo, don't make me pull a Seto on you," Serenity said, as footsteps began to walk to the other end of the huge door.

The steps stop. The two heard the scraping of the door against the cold stone floor, and the creek of ancient hinges screaming not to be used. Ryo was shaking in his skin, and Serenity was staring in complete disbelieve at the figure that stood before them. The face of the only human ever to survive the terror of The Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort, in all horrific, battle scared form. The huge, the terrible…

"Hel-lo!" said the extremely cheerful voice of a cheerleader looking girl with a tall body, slender-yet-womanly figure, strawberry blonde hair, and huge, bubbly green eyes. "Wazzup?"

The two just stared at her for a minute.

"Are you the…Dark Spirit from The Incredibly Steep Mountains?" Serenity asked politely.

"That's what the idiots at the tavern call me," said the girl. "All my other friends call me Spirit!"

"Why do you live in this house?" Ryo asked.

"They said mansion in the insurance agency; I didn't know they meant haunted looking mansion," said Spirit.

"I…see…" Ryo said.

"Would you like to come in?" Spirit asked.

---ooo---

"Okay, so let me get this straight," said Spirit. "You actually took a ride on the pirate ship?"

"Yeah," Serenity said.

"My, you really need to just walk on by pirate ships," said Spirit. "Anyway, you want me to ferry you to the Island of Extreme Personal Discomfort to find your friends?"

"Yeah," Serenity said. "That's it."

"Sorry, can't help you," said Spirit, drinking a glass of V8.

"WHAT?" Serenity asked.

"But our two friends are stuck on an abandoned island maybe!" said Ryo. "If we don't find them, they'll kill each other!"

"Sorry," she said again. "After my battle for my life trying to make it to that island, I've been deaf in one ear!"

"Oh," Serenity said. "I'm terribly sorry-"

"-and I have this awful ankle cramp!" she cried.

"Um, well-" Ryo said.

"AND MY VACUME CLEANER WON'T STOP CLOGGING!" screamed Spirit.

"OKAY!" Serenity cried. "But this is important.

"They're two young, innocent (ish) men in their prime, with their whole lives ahead of them!" Ryo cried. "One of them is a dumb blonde on a desperate quest for a brain, and the other is a emotionally disturbed person who's searching for his heart-"

"Oh man," said Spirit. "That's really breakin' my heart kid. 'On a search for his heart'? That's… so poetic…hang on. Did you say there was a blonde there?"

"Um, yes," Serenity said.

"A one hundred percent blonde? Not a dishwater or anything like that? No die?" Spirit asked.

"Uh…I guess…" said Ryo. "But I'm not sure about the die part."

"THIS I GOTTA SEE!" she said. "I'm starting to think they don't exist outside of Hollywood! You got a ferry guys!"

"Yay!" Serenity and Ryo said.

"But we'll have to wait until tomorrow," she said. "It's getting dark!"

"Oh, come on!" Ryo said. "It's pure d-"

Suddenly, the sun set, and it was completely dark.

"Uh, never mind," Ryo said.

---ooo---

THE NEXT DAY! WoOoOoOoO!

So, Serenity, Ryo, and Spirit were all in a speedboat, heading to The Island of Incredible Personal Discomfort, and Ryo was hanging over the edge in a huge combination of heart weighing guilt and sea sickness. While Spirit was too busy listening to her Greenday CD on her walkman, Serenity was trying to figure out why Ryo was submerged in the black well of depression, hugging Ms. Fuzzy-Kins in her arms to try to jumpstart her mind.

"Ryo, what's wrong?" she asked. "Another species on the endangered list?"

"Yes," Ryo said. "But something else too!"

"Seasickness?"

"Yes, that too, but something else!"

"Guilt?"

"Yep."

"Over what?"

Ryo sighed. "Have you ever felt useless?"

"Every day at PE," Serenity sighed.

"No, I mean completely useless," Ryo said. "I mean, it seems like through this whole trip, I have been nothing but a pain in the neck who runs from his own shadow and can't do anything without causing problems!"

"That's not true!" Serenity said. "You saved Mobster when she was about to get bashed by that basher!"

"That was just a reflex," Ryo said.

"You saved us at boot camp."

"With the help of a blueberry muffin army."

"You kicked Snake the Killer's butt!"

"No, that was you."

"Oh, yeah," Serenity said. "Still, I mean, Joey hasn't really done anything that special and he's still in the gang!"

"Not true," Ryo said. "He has the most important job of all! His lovably ludicrous actions always keep up our spirits so that we have the emotional strength to continue on the journey ahead of us!"

"I think this whole 'I owe a possibly dead guy' is kind of going to your head."

"Itiznoti'mnotcrazy!" Ryo said, eye twitching.

"Oh…kay…" Serenity said. "Still, I really think you should relax. All this stress isn't good for you."

"Cheh, I'm fine," Ryo said, continuing to peer over the water. "Hey Serenity, is it a bad thing when you see a pair of blood-shot eyes staring back at you?"

There was a silence.

"Ryo, you're a good kid, don't make me go Seto and put you in a sleeper hold," she said. "Look, I miss them too, but you seem…a little…I won't say crazy, but certainly taking this harder then you should."

"It's…" Ryo began. "Remember Not-Ryo?"

"Yeah?" Serenity said.

"He's attacked before," Ryo said. "And whenever he'd attack, someone got hurt…badly. Anyway, everyone started avoiding me. I don't have any friends that stayed my friends after one attack by Not-Me. You guys are the first whoever did."

"Oh," Serenity said.

"And I don't want to lose any of you," Ryo said. "I mean, you guys stuck with me no matter what sick and twisted thing happened to us. I owe all of you. I wish I could just get rid of the thing inside of me. I just want him gone…"

"Oh man," Serenity said. "I never thought you were that you were that upset."

"Yeah…but all I can do now is get stronger so I can get rid of whatever is hurting me inside, so he never can hurt any of you again. Then…maybe I can finally be worth all of you…that's why I feel so worthless…I'm too much of a whimp to do anything…even control myself…"

Ryo just slumped over the edge of the boat and went silent.

"You don't want to talk anymore, do you?" Serenity asked.

Ryo remained silent.

"Thought so," Serenity said.

---ooo---

"He's been like this for the past seven hours," said Spirit. "Shouldn't we do something?"

"Nah. At this point, I'm not sure if that's possible," Serenity said quietly, looking at Ryo stare sadly over the water. "So anyway, why is this place so dangerous?"

"Oh, that's because a huge elemental dragon guards these waters and anyone who gets too close to the island shall be consumed in it's terrible grip."

Suddenly, the water around the boat began to churn up, tossing the boat on waves, and a horrible roar echoed across the top of the water. The water itself almost formed together to form a huge, snake-like body.

"Oh dear," Serenity said.

However, a huge geyser of water shot up twenty feet in the air, looking like a huge pillar of death, destruction, and all that jazz. It then twisted together in a tornado thing to form a huge sea-serpent with blood red eyes that looked just like the ones Ryo said earlier.

"Hey!" Ryo said. "His eyes look just like the ones I saw earlier!"

Yes, I just said that.

Anyway, the sea serpent let out an incredibly threatening roar, and with one lash of a long, deadly tail, it completely clipped off the front half of the speed boat.

"Not good," Spirit said, as the boat began to sink.

"Oh, please Mr. Elemental Dragon!" Ryo said. "We don't want to be killed! All we want is to go to your island to find our friends! We don't want to cause any trouble. We just want to get them, and then head off to the Wizard of Cuz to get a brain, heart, guts, and a way home! We've gotten so far already, and they could be in big trou-"

"Stop it kid!" said the sea dragon. "Alright, alright already! You don't have to get mushy, for crissakes!"

"Wait, you can speak English?" Serenity said, as the boat continued to sink.

"Yeah, and my French isn't bad either. I even know some Latin…but is that the point? No!" said the Sea Dragon.

"Oh, uh, well," Serenity said.

"Anyway, thanks for actually trying to talk things out," the Sea Dragon said to Ryo. "Honest, every sailor that passes by this island, it's always 'oh, run, a big sea monster, kill it, kill it, kill it'. It is so annoying!"

"I can understand where you're coming from," Ryo said.

"Uh, this is a very nice conversation and all, but…" Serenity said, as the boat still sunk, and she was waist deep in water.

"And maybe I'd even let them by to if they at least tried to talk," said the Sea Dragon. "It's just that if those stupid sailors would try to kill me off, imagine what they'd do to the endangered species on the island."

"There are endangered species?" Ryo said. "I can see why you have to guard it!"

"Ri-yo," Serenity said in a mock sing-song voice, as they were now waist deep in water.

"But do you really want to kill them off?" Ryo said.

"No, they just wash up on shore," said the Sea Dragon. "The rest is just a stupid urban le-"

"RYO!" Serenity said, now neck-deep in water.

"Oh, right," Ryo said. "Um, I know this is a lot to ask, but can you give us a ride to island shore? We promise not to kill anything."

"Oh, no trouble at all," said the Sea Dragon.

---ooo---

"Okay," Serenity said, as she, Spirit, and Ryo cruised on the Sea Dragon's back. "I think we've all learned something very important today."

"Be nice to Sea Dragons?" Ryo said.

"Yes, but something else," Serenity said.

"Calm diplomacy is just as important as the ability to fight in a desperate situation?" Spirit asked.

"Um…right…" Serenity said. "Now, it's off to find Seto and Joey!

---ooo---

Ha! I told you that you would suffer.

Anyway…GUESS WHAT! Since this chapter is incredibly short, I decided to fill it up with…A SHORT! Yes, you shall have no respite from the horror! Also, this is a thank-you for being so patient while I was off doing flute solo, backstage work at drama club, recovering from daylight savings time, and having a concert. So now…TO THE SHORT!

Oh yes, and I don't own Greenday or any dog shows FYI.

Also, this short was inspired by a couple written down thingits that were swapped back and forward between two of my friends. If either of you are reading…SORRY I STOLE THE FIRST TWO LINES FROM YOU! Anyway, here we go.

THE INCREDIBLY CLEVER ANTICS OF SHRILANKA-SAN AND SERENITY IN TWO SENTANCES EACH!

A Short written by Shrilanka-San (and arguably Serenity, if she existed)

KEY

Slanted WritingSerenity

Straight upShrilanka-San

One day, when Shrilanka-San was, unfortunately, bored, she penned the following two sentences:

One day, Shrilanka-San got totally bored of this story. She shoved all the characters off a cliff.

THE END

Serenity saw this and penned the following:

Serenity preformed an awesome ninja-y kind of move and save everyone's butt. She plost revenge.

FIN

Shri swears violently. She then shoves a huge bolder off the cliff, instantly outing the pesky characters.

THE END

Serenity manages to pull everyone into a cave conveniently located on the cliff face. She then thinks up a plan for revenge.

FIN

Shri is really ticked. She decides to plot a few revenge plans of her own.

THE END

Serenity decides to hunt Shri down. She's taken a ton of weapons with her.

FIN

Shri has a plan. She lays several bear traps in front of the moat filled with alligators around her house.

THE END

Shri's kidding herself. She doesn't have that kind of money.

FIN

Shri openly admitted that she bear traps aren't in her budget. However, moats aren't , which Serenity was stupid enough to fall into.

THE END

Serenity points out that alligators are nothing compared to Joey. Plus, she can swim.

FIN

Shri aims a deep space missile at Serenity's backside. It hits the target.

THE END

Shri forgets that since she can't afford bear traps, she also can't afford missiles. Serenity, however, can.

FIN

Serenity forgets that Kaiba Senior owns missiles; all she owns is a plushie. Incidentally, that can't protect her from the previous.

THE END

On the contrary, Shri forgets that Ms. Fuzzy-Kins is a telekinetic and can protect her. She does.

FIN

Serenity forgets that Shri is the writer of the story. She conveniently writes Ms. Fuzzy-Kins out of it.

THE END

Serenity swears violently. She dodges the missile anyway.

FIN

Thankfully, Shri has a back of plan. She sicks her dog on Serenity.

THE END

Shri's dog is a sissy. She pats her on the head and continues to Shri down.

FIN

Serenity was so distracted that she forgets about the cat. The cat is ten times more violent then the dog.

THE END

Serenity ducks the cat just in time. She launches a hand grenade into Shri's house.

FIN

Serenity lacks access to such weapons. She instead throws a harmless potato.

THE END

Serenity didn't care. The potato knocked out Shri.

FIN

In her last moment of consciousness, Shri knocked out Serenity with sleeping gas. Serenity wakes up to a punch in the eye.

THE END

Serenity got up three seconds earlier then Shri. Shri wakes up to a kick in the arse.

FIN
