A/N: I hope that you were all pleased with the League of Random Axefighters! I've actually considered putting Puzon into his own fic, but I kinda DID turn him into a puddle of ooze. And I don't know what kind of randomness I'd have him doing. It made me sad to gooify poor, poor Puzon.
This is a really weird chapter, too. Heck! ALL of these chapters are weird!
Hey, is there anyone out there that can tell me Florina's Pegasus' name? Cause I could SWEAR that it said Makar in the chapter in Hector's story where Lyn joins you.(Yeah, I don't know the chapter numbers or whatever.) If Florina's next to Hector in this chapter, the "Talk" Command will show up, and I BELIEVE that she calls her Pegasus "Makar" But in the Florina and Hector supports, she calls him Huey! Maybe I should just settle this now and call him Huey Makar. Yeah, that'll do it.
I think I'll be putting the Reader Responses at the bottom again. Enjoy!
Ch.6: A Different Kind of Love"Ephidel, you really ought to come with me," Limstella suggested.
"No! Did you see how he TOTALLY didn't care about my well-being?!" Ephidel cried from inside the Bra-and-Matching-Underwear rack, "He's gonna let me be vaporized!!"
"Well, I inevitably fall in battle defending the fortress. Don't be so dramatic!"
"I demand Abomination's rights! I have the right to NOT be vaporized in an attempt to summon up a dragon!" Ephidel whined.
"Wait! My Nergal sense is tingling!" Limstella stopped and sniffed the air, "And he's in trouble!!!"
"Oh Puh-lease!!! Why do you care about HIM?!"
Limstella grabbed Ephidel, and ran off carrying him under her arm, "We must make haste!!"
MEANWHILE!!!!!
Nergal was blindly stumbling away from a wild litter of puppies that escaped from the Gardening Dept.
"Stop nipping at my heels, you nasty beasts!" He scolded as he ran right into the game case, "Ouch! Curses! If I knew what you miserable things were, I'd smite you on the spot!!"
"Oh, gee! Sorry mister!" Lurpy said sarcastically.
"YOU! I remember you!!! You're that walking Oil-slick we met earlier!! Ahh, so these creatures are your doing, are they?! Come over here so that I can smite you!!!" Nergal commanded.
"Yes sir." Lurpy said defeatedly and stepped in front of Nergal.
Nergal waved his hands around and finally touched Lurpy's face. Nergal shuddered, wiped his hands on his robes, and then slapped him upside the head.
"That's what you get for sicking your wretched beasts on me! Now contain them or I'll smite you again!"
"Yes sir." Lurpy replied as he began gathering the puppies as commanded.
"You there!" Limstella shouted and pointed Lurpy with Ephidel still in hand, "Step away from Lord Nergal, or prepare to die!!!"
Sensing he was in danger, Lurpy proceeded to cower, beg for his life, and simultaneously become twice as oily. This all being a survival reflex.
"Please don't hurt me miss!!" Lurpy stammered, "I was only-"
"SILENCE KNAVE!!" Limstella screamed, "PREPARE YOURSELF!!!"
"Eeep."
And with that she flew foreward, screeching like Xena, and wielding Ephidel like a sword. Lurpy began to run, but then assumed the fetal position when he realized there was nowhere to hide. Limstella wound up and smacked him good, sending him clear to the Gardening Dept. from whence he came.
"OW!" said Ephidel and Lurpy.
"YAY!!!" cheered Nergal with a pair of pom-poms.
Limstella stood there for a moment, thinking she was cool and then put Ephidel into her sword sheath.(Don't question my logic.) Then she felt like she had to add a cool finishing line, so she did.
"Victory is ours."
"Wait a minute.... I CAN SEE!!!!" Nergal exclaimed.
"That's fantastic, Lord Nergal." Limstella replied.
"Now, let us continue onward!"
"Look, Milord!" said Ephidel from inside the sheath, "Let's go over to those things!!"
"I have no idea as to what you're talking about, Ephidel." Nergal said, "So we're going to the VCR Dept."
"Awwww, why?" Ephidel asked/whined.
"Because it sounds more important. 'Nuff said."
So, just as Nergal said, they went to the VCR Dept. where Nergal examined everything very closely as Limstella stood by his side. RIGHT by his side.
"Really, Limstella! You don't need to stand so close to me!"
"But I am only making sure that you don't lose your vision again, milord."
"Yes!" exclaimed Ephidel once again from inside the sheath, "If you DO lose it again, then this time we can find it for you!"
". . ."
". . ."
". . . What?!"
"You're an idiot, Ephidel. Now I'm for SURE not going to save you from the dragon."
"Fine! I don't want to be your stupid evil minion, anyway!"
"Whatever. Quit standing so close to me, Limstella."
She took a step back.
"A little more."
She took another step.
"That's better."
Nergal resumed examining the VCR's. After something like 30 minutes, he finally spoke.
"Limstella, have you noticed that all of these items have a big, important looking button labeled 'Power?'"
She glanced over at the VCR's, "Yes."
"So what does that mean? Do you think that that it means that instead of using that useless dragon girl, I could take this thing, push the button and call it good?" Nergal asked her hopefully.
"I do not know."
For some reason, Nergal took that as a 'Yes,' "Wow! The thought of so much power at my finger tips makes me tremble!"
"Are you sure it isn't your low blood sugar?"
"... No."
"Then perhaps we ought to get you something to eat."
"... No."
". . ."
"Oh, just let the old Dingbat die!" Ephidel shouted bitterly, "See if I care!!"
". . ."
". . ."
". . ."
Nergal spotted a clerk, "You there! Which one of these..." he paused for a moment, "Devices is the most powerful?"
She walked over, "Most powerful?"
"Yes."
"Well, what're you planning on doing with it?"
"I'm planning on bringing about the end of the world."
She chuckled warmly, "Oh, that! That's become a pretty common reason lately!"
"Really?"
"Oh, yes! There were at least one or two other men that said the exact same thing!"
"Hmm. No matter. Which one did you sell to them?"
"Well, to be honest, it doesn't really matter what you choose!"
Nergal looked over at the vast expanse of VCR selections before him and then slowly turned his head to face her with a puzzled expression on his face.
"This is WalMart!" She said as if that should answer a question he never asked.
"Fine," he said, "Give me the cheapest one."
"Alrighty!" She said, grabbing a VCR and setting it on the table.
Nergal put an entire bag of gold on the counter, and began to walk away with the VCR, "That ought to suffice."
The clerk sat there, utterly confused, "Oh, um. Thank you?"
LATER IN NERGAL'S SUPER SECRET LAIR!!!!!
"I can't believe you bought it," Ephidel, the dangerous weapon said. "You probably got ripped off."
"Shut it!" Limstella hissed at him, "Do you want to die earlier than you should?!"
"Yeah, like it'll matter!"
"Shut up, the both of you!" Nergal snapped, "The only thing keeping me from smiting you two here and now is my incredibly good mood!" he finished, looking at the VCR with love in his eye(s).
"And your low blood sugar, right?" Ephidel asked.
"... Yes, that too."
"Why don't you eat something? Isn't it bad for a man such as yourself to be functioning on such low blood sugar?"
"... No."
". . ."
". . ."
"Anyway, we'll commence the installation as soon as I get my turban put on right."
Then Nergal went and gave the VCR a very BIG hug and then frolicked off to the bathroom.
Limstella stood there and waited like a good morph should, when all of the sudden, her sword sheath began to move.
"Get out of my sword sheath, Ephidel."
