Well, I'm glad to be back! After all the Halloween craziness, (and the inspiring amount of reviews), I'm going to base this eppie on Halloween! I'm also having a shout-out at the end, to answer the multiple questions asked, and replying to all the wonderful reviews you guys gave me! So thanks again for all of them!
For a heads-up, there are going to be more people in this chapter, after all, it IS a Halloween-based one, and even the grouchiest of Avatar characters wouldn't want to miss out on the fun!
OK, The Northern Water Tribe was a fabulous episode! Even though it wasn't done by the better animator, this current one pulled it together to make a truly fantastic episode. And I absolutely adore Teo- he's a great character! I'll be using him in the next chapter, which will hopefully come out soon…
TV's What If?
Host: (beaming happily) "Hi, and welcome to the seventh…can you believe it...SEVENTH episode of TV's What If! For today, in honor of October's holiday, we're going to send the cast of Avatar off trick-or-treating!" (cast casting looks at one another) "Each one of them is going to get his/her very own costume, complete with a pillow case or bag to collect candy in. So, here are the costumes." (motions to rack of concealed outfits, being pushed into view) "Thank you, Bob. So, everyone grab a costume!"
(shuffling in the background, camera switches to characters peering curiously at costume in bag)
Host: "Everyone, see what costume you got! As soon as you all put them on, you're ready to go trick-or-treating!"
--------------------------
Aang: (unwraps costume and is delighted to find a Big Daddy outfit, complete with purple leopard-skin hat and chains) "Hey, cool! This is gonna be fun!" (slides on costume, sees how baggy and big it is on him) "Ooh, maybe this isn't gonna work out…"
--------------------------
Katara: (holds up a vampire costume) "Well, uh…" (glances at Aang, who's rolling around in his oversized Big Daddy outfit) "…at least it'll going to fit…"
-------------------------
Sokka: (pulls out a clown costume fit for someone the size of a monkey) "OK. Seriously. You don't expect me to actually fit in this……right?"
(silence from everyone)
Sokka: "Oh, come ON! I'm takin' another costume."(manages to tug out one of those inflatable sumo wrestler outfits and slips it on, confused) "Uhhhh…."
(Host comes over and turns fan on, costume slowly inflates)
Sokka: (shocked at now huge costume) "What the heck…?"
-------------------------
Zuko: (fumbling with a chubby penguin outfit, obviously not happy with his choice of costume) "I hate my life…"
-----------------------
Iroh: (looking at a very small Mr. Peanut costume with top hat and cane) "Does anyone want to trade? I'm sure that I will not be able to manage this…"
Aang: (motioning to overly large Big Daddy outfit, hat lopsided) "How about this?"
Iroh: (beaming) "Ah, of course! Perfect!" (tosses peanut costume to Aang, who throws B.D. clothes back)
Zuko: (from inside the fat penguin costume) "Uncle, I already told you! No interacting with the Avatar! If my father caught you…"
Iroh: (already in the costume, necklaces on and everything, whispering back at Zuko, shifty eyes) "But the nice men in white coats already brought him back to the clinic…you should know that…"
Zuko: (under breath, looking away) "Yeah, of course…they wanted to bring me back, too, just in case insanity ran in the family…"
-----------------------
Chey: (already standing in a disco outfit) "Hey, what can I say? Compared to the other costumes…" (glancing quickly at Sokka and Zuko) "…this one's great!"
----------------------
Jeong Jeong: (furious at grabbing the backend part of a two-person horse costume) "Argh! What nonsense is this? I refuse to be seen in such a ridiculous costume!"
---------------------
Aunt Wu: (holding the front end of the horse outfit, looking at Jeong Jeong and smiling) "Well, hello there, handsome. It appears that we're going together."
Iroh: (from background) "Hey! I thought I was the handsome one!"
---------------------
Momo: (holding the adorable little monkey-sized clown costume in little furry hands) "Hey! Now I'm gonna look like Sokka did in episode 3!"
Sokka: (in background, costume puffed up almost to the point that he looks like a giant marshmallow with a thong) "Grrrrr…"
---------------------
Jun: (holding a Catwoman outfit disdainfully, sticks it on) "…ugh…"
Iroh: (whistles) "Jun, you look absolutely splendid in that-"
Jun: "Can it, fattie!"
Iroh: (shrugs and leans over to the newly "penguinized" Zuko) "I was going to say that she looks quite the vixen…"
Zuko: (slaps self in face) "Uncle, she's practically MY age! Why don't you go and date someone who's…old, like you?"
Iroh: (pats belly) "Prince Zuko, you know I don't care about age…plus younger women make me feel, uh…energized…"
Zuko: (making incredibly disgusted face) "You- younger women- energized… (can't express himself, drags hands down face) "…that is so gross…"
----------------------
Host: (dressed up as a pirate) "Well, I think we're all ready to go trick-or-treating, and later, a trip to a haunted house!"
Sokka: (gulps) "…haunted…?"
Katara: (smirking in vampire outfit) "What's wrong, Sokka? Scared?"
Sokka: (waves hand to the side) "Me? Puh- no way! I'm just…uh, worried about your safety!"
Aang and Katara: "Riiiiiiight…"
Host: "So, it's about time to start. So everyone, go!"
-----------------------
Aang: (walks up to house in peanut costume with bag in hand)
(door opens, and old lady hobbles out)
Old Lady: "Oh, what an adorable costume you have! I'm sure you'd like some candy! What a handsome young man you are!" (pinches Aang's cheek)
Aang: (having face squeezed) "Uh, yeees, ma'am…I would leeeke some candee pleeese."
Old Lady: (old fingers still latched on to Aang's cheeks) "Awww, you are such a polite young man, too! When I was younger, I knew a boy who…"
Aang: (through the cheek-squeezing and old-lady babbling) "This is gonna take a while…"
----------------------
Katara: (snickering as she watches Sokka waddle down the street) "God, I should take pictures or something…"
(guy swaggers up)
Guy: (giggles and snorts) "Hiya, toots. Miss me?"
Katara: (realizes who it is that's speaking to her, and whispers to herself) "Oh no. It's Melvin."
----------------------
Sokka: (waddling around in sumo costume, sees house) "Ooh, finally! Candy!" (starts to run up when three big guys walk in front of him)
Leader of gang: "Hey. Where'd ya think you're goin', Ponytail?"
Sokka: (backs up) "Hey, move outa the way! I have candy to collect!"
Leader: (steps up) "Yur not goin' anywhere." (holds up Jalapeno hot-sauce and hot cheetos) "First you gotta taste this. And this." (smirks to other guys) "Unless you're scared."
Sokka: "No way! I'm not gonna try that! I don't even know what that is!" (glances at other boys) "And I'm not scared."
Leader: (Making 'scaredy-cat' face) "Awwwww, Ponytail's scared! Buck buck! Chicken! Chicken!" (other gang members start walking around, flapping and clucking)
Sokka: (very frustrated) I am NOT a chicken! Gimme that!" (snatches hot sauce and spicy cheetos out of Leader's hands, gulps both down at the same time) "…" (face gets beet-red)
Leader: (leans in) "So… how do you feel?"
Sokka: (silence, then:) "AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!" Hot! HOT! HOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOT!" (runs around in circles, furiously fanning mouth with both hands)
(gang is doubling over with laughter)
Leader: (still laughing) "Hahaha! Now, get outa here!"
Sokka: (starts waddling quickly away in sumo costume, recovering from spiciness)
(one gang member reaches over and snaps thong, Sokka goes running away hurriedly)
Leader: (laughing even harder) "Haahahahahahaa! What a sucker!"
--------------------------
Zuko: (sulking around, brooding)
(group of little kids come running over and attach themselves to his leg)
Little kids: "Mister Penguin! You're the best! We love you!"
Zuko: (trying to pry them all off of him) "Argh! Get OFF!"
(Host comes jogging over and whispers to Zuko)
Host: "Uh…did I forget to mention that Mr. Penguin is a very popular children's TV program character?"
Zuko: (standing there with a peculiar expression on his face while kids hug his knee) "………"
---------------------------
Iroh: (strolling around in Big Daddy costume, whistling, spots house) "I believe I should start this business of, uh…trick-or-treating there." (walks up to house)
(person sitting on steps holds bowl of candy)
Iroh: (beaming cheerfully) "Trick or treat!"
Person: "OK then!" (sprays Iroh with silly string)
Iroh: (stands there for a second, then starts laughing) "Ahhhh, I get it now! I get a trick…or a treat! Ha ha ha! Very amusing…"
Person: "…actually, you're supposed to trick me if I don't give you candy."
(awkward silence)
Iroh: "….oh."
---------------------------
Chey: (looking around while walking down the street) "I wonder where we're supposed to get this candy…" (big wig gets blown off his head and goes flying away) "Ooh, hope insurance covers that…"
---------------------------
Jeong Jeong: (inside the horse costume) "This is absurd! Just give it to me!"
Aunt Wu: "No! Not until you give me back mine!" (suddenly backs up)
Jeong Jeong:"Ooooww! That was my FOOT!" (more movement inside horse) "OWWW!"
Aunt Wu: "And THAT was my hand!"
Jeong Jeong: "Do not anger me! You do not want to see a firebender when he is angry!"
Aunt Wu: "Is that supposed to scare me?"
Jeong Jeong: "I want it NOW!"
Aunt Wu: Fine, just take it! But I want mine back!" (throws something at Jeong Jeong, who throws something back)
Aunt Wu: "Finally! My cloud-reading book!"
Jeong Jeong: "Finally! My salt-water taffy!"
-------------------------
Momo: (scurrying down the street) "Hmmm hm hmmm…"
Little kids: "lookie, a clown!" (all run over and see what Momo really is)
One kid: "Is that a monkey?"
Another kid: "Who cares? He's got candy!"
Momo: "You can only have my candy if I get something, too."
One boy: (digs in pockets furiously and pulls out a dead beetle) "How 'bout this?"
Momo: "Perfect!" (pops dead bug in mouth) Crunch. Crunch crunch.
Little kids: "Ewwwwww…" (all pull out dead bugs and stuff) "Can ya eat this?"
Momo: "Sure!" (throws candy out to all of them, they hand over the bugs, walk away, and Momo is left to enjoy a nice big pile of deceased insects) "Ahhhh, this is the life!"
------------------------
Host: "Well, we're back! And it's time to head on over to the haunted house!" (everyone starts walking)
Aang: "So, Katara, how much candy did you get?"
Katara: (glancing from right to left in vampire outfit) "I don't know, I dropped it all so that Melvin kid would stop following me and pick it up…"
(figure starts running toward both of them)
Melvin: "Hey baby, wait for me!"
Katara: "Oh no! Come on!" (grabs Aang's arm and starts running)
Melvin: (running insanely after them) "Hey toots! I got your candy!"
------------------------
Aang: (looking around inside haunted house) "I don't understand…what's supposed to be scary about a bunch of dead guys?"
(Momo comes flying out of nowhere and latches onto Aang's head)
Aang: "Aaaaaggghhhh! Momo, let GO! I'm not a nut!"
------------------------
A few moments later…
Host: "Hmmm…I wonder where everyone is…
(a peanut figure with hat and cane comes zipping out of haunted house, followed by vampire, penguin, disco person, Big Daddy, and two-person horse costume not far behind)
Zuko: (running as fast as he can in the penguin outfit, little kids still clasped onto his leg) "Uncle, let's get out of here!"
Iroh: "My thoughts exactly! Come, Jun!"
Jun: (stops and raising outstretched hands to the sky) "LEAVE ME ALONE!"
----------------------
Aang: "Aaaaagghhhhhh! This place really IS haunted!"
Katara: (running) "Hey, where'd Sokka go?"
Sokka: (inflatable sumo wrestler costume is caught on door) "Aaaaghhhhh! It's coming after me! Someone help!"
Katara: (turns around) "Hold on Sokka, I'm coming!" (unlatches Sokka from door when big black hairy thing comes stumbling out)
Sokka: (picks up sumo costume and starts running awkwardly) "Let's get outa here!"
Aunt Wu: (inside horse costume) "I didn't see that coming!"
Jeong Jeong: "I bet you did not! Hey…this thing moves pretty fast!"
(black thing comes waddling faster after them)
Aunt Wu: "Well, it doesn't move that fast, so pick it up, slowpoke! That horse butt doesn't move itself, you know!"
(distorted horse costume gradually stumbles away)
(Hairy thing covered in black shiny strings runs into a wall and falls over, revealing Melvin, dazed)
Melvin: (rubbing head and straightening glasses) "Man, I GOTTA stop getting caught in those haunted house confetti curtains…"
-------------------------
Host: (scratching bandana-ed head) "…what was THAT about?"
Katara: (panting) "Some maniac in a black stringy costume came running after us…"
(something big and black goes sailing over Aang's head)
Aang: (takes advantage of scary situation) (pretends to be frightened and jumps into Katara's arms) "Aaaaaagggghhhh! Katara, CATCH ME!"
Katara: (grabs Aang just before he hits the ground)
Iroh: (also takes advantage and jumps for Jun) "Jun, CATCH ME!"
-THUMP-
Iroh: "Ow…"
----------------------
Katara: "Aang, are you alright?"
Aang: (curled up in Katara's arms) "I'm alright now…"
(both start blushing madly)
Katara: (sets Aang on ground) "…well, OK…"
---------------------
Host: Looking quite disconcerted and confused) "OooooooK…that was weird, well, anyway…thanks to all of you for watching this episode of What If!"
Well, hope you enjoyed!
I think I'm going to make a little collection of my own made-up bloopers and stuff like that from Avatar…I only have three right now, but as soon as more come up, I'll post them right away, so be sure to check them out! I'll be calling it "Avatar's Funniest Moments" or something along those lines…
For a little sneak peek at future eppies, I plan to use as many ideas as I can that you guys have mentioned in your reviews! So watch for them! The thing is, there are so many ideas that I hardly know what to do with them! But I do promise to try using as many as I can...
Shout out:
Blaze83: So glad to hear it! And the furbies were your idea!
Lensgirlfriend: Thanks for reviewing!
Eleana Galad: Thanks for reviewing!
Jade Tealeaf: That is a great idea! I'll definitely consider using it!
Sulana Jay: Glad you liked it! I worked my butt off trying to make it funny…believe me, it's a lot harder than it seems…
KoiKitten: Hmmm…very interesting idea. I could use it!
Zukoscute2: Wow. You inner devil seems very logical…heehee…anyways, love your idea! I might even zap Ozai again…hehe…just for some amusement…
Sokkaismyhomeboy: My pleasure! Ooh, that would be a really funny episode…I always pictured Katara as the mystery-involved one…
Foxtail Inferno: You know what? My friend thought of that physiatrist idea right after I got yours…and she doesn't even go on Fanfiction! You guys think a lot alike…all of your suggestions sound pretty good! Hope you liked how I incorporated the Cheetos into the chappie! By the way, I haven't seen/read Naruto. Is it good?
The-3-Amigos: Hehe…I could get Bush and Ozai to come up with crazy messed-up plans for taking over the word…if you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly the biggest Bush fan…nor am I a Democrat. I just pick whoever I think would do the best job of helping our country. (Bush practically started the war in my eyes…and did you know? Before 9/11, The White House guys knew that something bad was going to happen, but Bush just waved the idea aside…)
What if Fan: Hope you liked how I weaved your idea into the fray!
I Have A Pharaoh In My Mind: Hi- haven't heard from you in a while! Thanks a ton for the review! Hope you liked my way of using your idea! I wanted to stick Zuko in a ballet costume, I really did, but as a dancer myself (no kidding, seriously) I thought it would be a little too mean- he'd have to wear tights, pointe shoes (those things can crush your toes! Believe me, I know) and the entire costume itself…plus it rides up in a certain area, too…don't want Zuko getting a rash there, do we?
Sonamyfan: Thanks a ton for reviewing!
Bluefirestar: That's a great idea! I'll use it! With nap-time and everything!
Chickygurl: Congrats! Yours was the nicest review I've gotten in a while. You have a hilarious idea, I'd be more than happy to use it!
Oh, yeah, I'm in tenth grade, happy to have helped with studying! Oh, I saw the episode, The Northern Air Temple! IT was fabulous, a truly magnificent episode, and I adore Teo! He's pretty cool! I'll probably use him in the next chapter…
Oh, no way! The finale's one HOUR LONG? That is so awesome! That means one full hour of sitting and staring at the TV (probably with a side of drool)…
You'll be the first to know when I set up my site! I can't wait 'til I can actually post it…it's a HUGE website, with info about almost everything! The backgrounds are all different, and I used only the most accurate of info, so I'm really pumped up about getting it up on the web.
Akira: Hmmm…that might work out…I could have a few "minor" conflicts going on, like between Zuko and Katara about where to eat, etc. and maybe someone could throw spaghetti at Sokka because he wasn't exactly polite…hehe….so evil…
Delta Flyer: I might be able to do that…hmmm...see, for the next one, I want to add the Northern Water Tribe Princess, Teo, and the Waterbender Master.
Airnomadperson: So glad you enjoyed it! Hahaha; your insanely crazy laughter had me laughing! Haha…and yeah, I am as evil as Donald Duck…heehee!
Really, I am sooooo sorry for holding you guys up so long! I really didn't mean to, it's just that I have so much on my plate, with the –Blank- Youth Symphony (can't tell, it gives away the state I live in), fencing, dance, and every other crazy thing I have to do in this crazy excuse for a life! Plus I'm trying to work on a videogame that I'm making…long story, really, but there are gonna be dragons in it and other things that I've created…it's pretty cool, I just hope I get the chance to one day publish and sell it in a videogame store…but anyway, I really hope to get the next one posted a little earlier…
Oh, my dad's coming to shut down the computer! AAAAGHHHHH!…see you guys later!
