Encounters: Chapter 7
Movie Time!
"D? D what's wrong?" Gali asked as the teen cried on the roof.
"Huh? Nothing…" D replied, whipping her eyes. "It's just…"
"Just what?" the Toa of Water asked, climbing up to sit beside her.
"Why is Tahu so mean? I'm just trying to help, and he yells at me…" she sniffed.
"That's just the way he is. He doesn't like to ask for help, and he doesn't like to be told what to do." the blue Toa explained then smirking slightly added, "He can also be a bit of a hothead at times too."
D smiled and laughed a bit at this. She wiped her eyes dry and stood up.
"Wanna go back in the house now?" the human asked.
Gali nodded, and stood up next to the teen.
"Well, do you think you guys would want to watch a movie?" D asked.
"A movie?" Gali questioned with a puzzled look on her face.
"Never mind, I'll just bring one down and show you guys." D said with a laugh.
Gali nodded and went back into the girl's room. A few minutes later, D came in the room holding a small case in her hand.
"Who wants to watch gargoyles?" she asked. "I've got the whole first season on DVD!"
The kids all went wild cheering and shouting. Fox even howled, causing everyone to laugh.
"What's a gargoyle?" Lewa asked.
"You'll find out!" Squirt said sounding excited.
"Wait a sec! We need snacks!" Fox yelped.
"Well hurry up!" Meya growled. "We don't have all night."
After Fox had finally gotten his snacks, D walked over to a black box in the middle of her room, and took out a disk from the case she had. She slipped it into a device and pressed a button on the device. Then she went over and sat on a chair next to her bed, where Tahu was laying.
Tahu feeling kind of bad about what he had said earlier, looked around to make sure no one was looking, then leaned over and whispered into D's ear, "Um sorry… about earlier."
She looked at him, smiled, and replied, "Apology accepted."
The screen on the box suddenly flared to life, and everyone heard a voice say, "Coming soon to theaters."
"And let's skip the previews…" D muttered pressing the "Menu" button on the remote.
"Whoever invented previews should be drug out into the streets, and shot." Sunshine joked.
"Oh yeah, big time." Meya agreed.
Finally, the show started, the theme song playing, showing winged beings flying in the night. Everyone stopped talking as the theme ended, and the episodes began…
To be continued…
