A Walk in Your Shoes II
Chapter 4: Rivalry of the Idiots
Okay, I got a review, so I'm going to continue the story as originally planned. Thank you to AthEnA1999 for reviewing. Today is my last day where I have absolutely nothing to do before school starts. I hope to update as many times as possible before school starts, but once it starts, I'll have very little free time. At least I think so, I'm in a new school, so I have no idea.
The delivery to Earth 7 was pretty uneventful. The crew did have to stay a little longer while than expected. The people of Earth 7 seemed to like folk songs very much, and Bender was forced to carry the crate of magnets. After a few hours, Bender was able to return to the ship.
Bender walked up to the control room, looking very mad.
"Wow, Bender," Leela said, "Usually, when you get that much attention, you're very happy."
"I know," Bender replied, "But I never get attention from folk singing. I wanted to be known for stealing, or killing some guy, or enslaving an entire race of people."
"Like on Osiris 4?" Fry asked.
"Yeah," Bender said.
Bender walked out of the room, muttering something about destroying all humans, when Zapp and Zoidberg walked in.
"Hello, my sensual Leela," Zapp said. He tried to make a purring sound, but being in Zoidberg's body made it hard, and he made an odd slurping sound instead.
"Zapp," Leela said, sounding very annoyed, "I hate you. I also think Zoidberg is a hideous monster. There's a better chance of me dating Fry than getting together with you."
"Yes!" Fry exclaimed. "So, where are we going?"
"Nowhere!" Leela yelled. "I was just using you as an example. You're both idiots."
Fry and Zapp, both very depressed, walked out of the control room, leaving Leela and Zoidberg alone in the control room.
"Zoidberg, before you even say anything, just get out," Leela said.
This left Leela alone in the control room. Bender was in his room, drinking a beer and looking at a Playbot magazine. Zoidberg was looking through Zapp's room, hoping there would be some anchovies. Fry and Zapp were in the cargo hold, getting into an argument.
They were arguing over whom Leela loved more. Zapp claimed that he had loved Leela first, both emotionally and physically. Fry was unable to respond to this, so he kicked Zapp where Leela had hit him twice.
After Zapp was done rolling on the floor in pain, the two of them made a bet. One hundred dollars to the first person to get on a date with Leela. Fry and Zapp both ran out of the cargo hold to find something for Leela.
Zapp ran to his room to find Zoidberg eating something. Zoidberg was having trouble digesting it. Apparently, humans can't digest stainless steel. Zapp ignored the crab in his body and started digging through his trunk. Everything in it had pieces of it missing and saliva on it. Zapp found a box of half eaten chocolate and ran out of the room.
Fry ran into his room and stubbed his toe on the wall. He fell over and held his foot in pain. Bender looked up from his Playbot magazine and laughed at Fry. Fry got up and scrambled around looking for something to give to Leela.
"Quick, Bender," Fry said, "I need something for Leela. What should I get her?"
Bender, without even looking up, extended his arm into Fry's trunk. Without looking at what he was grabbing, he threw a small box at Fry. It was a box of Candy Hearts.
"Thanks Bender," Fry called as he ran out of the room.
Leela was enjoying her time alone. She knew, though, that eventually, someone would barge in and involve her in some idiotic thing that she would hate very much. Then, Zapp ran into the room.
"Leela, my love," he said, while drooling as much as Zoidberg would if he was dreaming about anchovies, "Would you like to go see a movie?"
Before Leela could respond, Fry ran into the room. He also asked if Leela would like to go see a movie. Zapp pushed a box in front of her. Inside there were some chocolates. All of them had chunks missing from them. Fry gave her a little box. It head candy hearts in them that tasted like chalk.
Both of them got right in her face, trying to get her attention. Both of them didn't realize that Leela's attention needed to be on flying, because she was getting ready to land on Earth.
"Move out of the way or we'll crash!" Leela screamed.
Back on Earth, the Nimbus crew had succeeded in fixing the ship. All that was left was to switch Zapp and Zoidberg back. Suddenly, the Planet Express Ship entered Earth's atmosphere. It was plummeting down at a high speed, Leela still couldn't see past Fry and Zapp.
The ship continued to speed up until it crashed right into the Professor's lab. As everyone stepped off the ship they all gasped. Leela fell to her knees and started crying. When the ship crashed, it hit the Mind-Machine and completely destroyed it. Zapp Brannigan would be staying with the Planet Express Crew for a while longer.
