THE CLIFF

I've been lazy again… -- Sorry everyone! This chapter is probably going to be short, but hopefully what happens will make up for that. Heheheh.

Now I will answer reviews!

Snickerer: Yeah, but I'm not sure if he'll go insane in this fiction… Haven't worked that out yet…
Dr. Light is rather calm about this, isn't he?
Glad someone enjoyed that!

Banbie Bunny's Bro: Zero seems to be really naïve in this chapter… That may just be me, but…
This is most definitely not the end yet… But it is coming soon. Insert scary music
Thanks for the inspiration!

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, but why only two reviews? If there is something wrong with my fan fiction, please tell me so I can improve upon it!

Now to the fic itself!

THE CLIFF: CHAPTER 7
It's about time!

They had both known where they were going before they even left the lab; the cliff.
As they walked, they talked about trivial things; weather, music, movies, complements to each other. Bass enjoyed the talk as they hiked to the cliff top. The longer they talked, the longer Bass had to think about what he would say. Roll looked up at the sky through the leaves of the treetops. The midday sun was high in the sky, shining beautifully down at them. She looked over at Bass, and stumbled over a rock on the path. As she threw her hands out to catch herself, she felt Bass grab one of her hands and caught her around her waist to stop her fall. Bass helped her back to her feet, both of them blushing and avoiding each others eyes.
"So, uh, wh-what were we talking about?" Bass stuttered.

They reached the top of the cliff, still chatting to one another. They sat close together, and Roll rested her head on Bass' shoulder while Bass wrapped an arm around her.
They looked down at the forest below, and watched to the breeze rustle the leaves in the afternoon light. Roll could tell Bass had something to say, so she waited patiently for him to say something.

Zero poked his head through the door into the sparring room where Rock and Blues had long resumed training.
"Hey, have either of you seen Bass or Roll? They've been missing for awhile!" the reploid called.
Blues paused their battle long enough to give Zero a smug look. "I wouldn't worry about them. I think I know where they are.
Zero shook his head and resumed his exploration of the house.
Rock looked over at Blues. "Where do you think they are?"
Blues smirked. "Remember Roll telling us about the cliff? I bet that's where they are."
"Why don't we go see what they're doing?" Rock walked out of the room, calling over his shoulder, "I'll get Zero and Crash and meet you in the back yard!" He headed down the hallway and out of sight. Blues shook his head.
"Bass is gonna kill us when we get there."

Even Roll had an end to her patience. Having waited for Bass to say something for about twenty minutes now, she decided to prompt him in what she guessed was the subject.
"Hey Bass?"
"Yes?" Bass couldn't believe his luck. Roll was starting a conversation, giving him more time to think.
"Do you like me?" Roll asked, looking up into Bass' red eyes with a playful smile.
Bass blinked in surprise. 'Curse my luck!' he swore in his head.
Roll's smile widened at the look on Bass' face. "C'mon Bass! Do you?" she teased.
Neither of them noticed the four beams of light land behind them in the woods. Two reddish, one blue, and one green.
"Uh, w-what do you mean, like?" Bass stuttered, trying to buy some time.
"Aw, you know!"
'Might as well tell her,' Bass decided. He took a deep breath and said," If you're asking if I love you, then yes. I love you, but I was too scared to tell you. I'm afraid you won't feel the same."
Roll looked him in the eye. "Of course I love you."
They looked lovingly into each others eyes, and as if in a dream, they leaned forwards towards each other and kissed.
When their lips parted, Bass felt light headed and giddy. Roll's eyes sparkled, and for awhile, they sat silently together, caring about nothing but now. Suddenly, Roll giggled. Bass raised his eyebrows.
"What's so funny?"
Roll smiled up into Bass' face. "What's Rock going to say about this?" She giggled.
Bass gave her his trademark grin. "He probably won't say anything; just disassemble me!"
"I WOULD NOT! You two make a cute couple!"
"Hey, weren't we supposed to stay quiet?"
Bass and Roll turned towards the sound to find the source of the voices and saw Rock's head sticking up out of the bushes and Zero's face peeking through the branches of a shrub.
Zero burst into giggles when he saw the look of surprise on their faces. "Bass! Y-you l-look like-hahahahaha-you've j-just swallowed a-hahahahaha!- Lemon!" he laughed, wiping tears of mirth from his eyes.
Rock, on the other hand, ducked back into the bushes and pretended he wasn't there.
"How long have you all been there?" Bass asked, his voice dangerously low.
"Long enough!" shouted Crash from a large tree branch, waving a camera around. Bass stared dumbfounded at Crash and the camera for a minute, then narrowed his eyes.
"Why. Did. You. Take. Pictures?"
"Why not? It's great blackmail, isn't it?"
"You asked for it!" Bass jumped at Crash, who dodged by jumping onto the ground. Bass started chasing Crash again, yelling some fairly profane things. Blues stood up, shaking his head.
"They're at it again.

This was about 3 1/2 pages. Not bad.
Why do I always update so late at night! It's now 3:00! -- zZzz
Was this too mushy? Please tell me!

By the way, the next chapter might be the last in the story. Afterwards, I'm planning on having a cast party where the cast of The Cliff get to see all the spoofs I wrote and comment on them. They'll also comment on how they liked being in The Cliff.

Review and tell me if you want to see it!

G'Night!
