Ziggy's Corner: Okay this was only going to be a six chapter story, until Mei and Ty Lee joined the fray. So it will be an eight part story, this one coming right after Azula.
TICKLE ME FLAME, Mei Doll.
The spokesman took out the doll that resembled the princess' bored of regal life, academy friend and showed the crowd. She seemed just as moody as the real thing, disgusted with publican life, wanting to end it all, or chose to dress her clothes in gothic black and create a rock band called, "Crushing Skulls".
"She may be a little frightening, but I have word from the princess that she gave her permission for these dolls to be made. You can now take the friends of the princess home too."
It was mainly the young teenage men who were interested in this doll. Very interested. Much more interested than they were the Princess Azula doll, which caused some jealousy from the dolls, and made the spokesman have to put the princess' dolls in storage for a while. After he came back, battered, bruised and burned, the test sessions commenced.
A teenage boy tickled the doll's underarms, and Mei giggled snidely. "Well you're kind of cute, what do you say you show me a good time by punching out that big, tattooed guy over there who said I was a little twit?"
"Er, what big tattooed guy?" the boy asked, looking around.
"Over there," Mei sighed, the doll's eyes rolling with exasperation. The boy turned and saw a pencil necked geek, gawking at the boxes where the Azula dolls were being caged. "You mean him?"
The doll was silent, and though he continued to quiz, Mei kept her silence. Frustrated, he tickled her under the arms again, and she laughed, and repeated the same phrase. "This stupid little twit is broken," the teenager growled.
Just then the pencil necked geek approached and frowned at him. "You know, that's not a nice thing to say about a lady?"
"Oh really?" the teenager snapped.
"Really." The geek proceeded to kick the tattooed teenage thug's butt, and then took his doll, tickling the Mei doll on her stomach.
"Oh not there!" the doll gasped. It laughed and shook. "You're really much cuter than I thought! Now go beat up my old boyfriend!"
"Your old boyfriend?"
"Prince Zuko."
Like a bolt of thunder the geek blasted from the area to find and beat up Zuko. He later got his butt handed to him by the prince, but at least he always had the good memories.
Two boys tickled their shared doll's feet and stomach, and the doll gurgled. "You know, there's really no fathoming my hatred of this," it said in boredom.
"Man, she's hard to get a giggle out of," one of the boys said.
The other boy tickled her feet again, and she squealed with laughter. "Oh no, stop it, stop it!" she screamed with laughter. He continued to tickle, happy the doll was working. "I said stop!" Mei roared. The doll produced small shuriken throwing daggers and tossed them at the two boys.
"For the record, that's what I was laughing about," she snarled, and dropped to the ground lifeless.
A two year old boy tickled his doll under the arms, and she giggled. "You remind me of my little brother, Tom-Tom," she grumbled. Then the doll sniffed and groaned. "You smell like him too, don't your parents believe in diaper changes?"
A group of boys where arguing over who would get their only doll, pulling and yanking on the thing's arms, and legs. The fight go so violent that the doll finally groaned in agitation, spilt into five different parts, regenerated and totally destroyed the boys messing with it that there was no identifying the bodies.
"Now that's funny!" one of the Mei dolls giggled.
"And fun!" another one agreed.
"And healthy," a third agreed.
"Excuse me, but healthy?" the spokesman asked, his skin turning pale white.
"Exercise is health," the Mei dolls explained before dropping to the ground.
A young girl tickled her doll, and the Tickle Me Flame Mei shrilled with giggles and shook. "What a little cutie you are! You remind me just like the girl who did all of my laundry and home work in the Royal Academy for girls!"
The girl blinked and shook her head, "You know my sister makes me do all of that kind of stuff," she said.
"Oh good then you won't mind doing mine!" the doll said.
"But, why would I do the homework and laundry of a doll?" the girl asked. "The real Mei already graduated from the Academy."
"Are you questioning me?" the doll pulled out a blade and the girl shook her head so fast it nearly came off. "Good, now whose your best friend?"
"You?" the girl asked nervously.
"And what do you do for best friends?" the doll snapped.
"Give them lot's of tickles and tea?" the girl asked hopefully.
The doll pulled out two blades and glared at the girl. "Homework and laundry first, then we'll talk about tickles. And I despise tea!"
"Er okay," the girl said, afraid of defying her toy.
"Now take me to your mom and dad, and tell them to buy me!" The girl took her doll home, and went about to being a Cinderella type until she died, although the Mei doll did occasionally let her tickle her.
A middle aged man and woman tickled their doll, and she giggled. "No stop! You know I can't take that!" She wiggled giggled. "That was so … er, well you know." The doll blinked.
"Well that seems like Mei," the woman said.
"It sure does!" the man said.
"Now that we got that out of the open, how creepy is it that you two are playing with a doll in my likeness?" The real Mei asked, standing behind her parents.
"Oh but darling, don't you think Tom-Tom would love it?" her mother asked, showing her daughter the doll of herself.
"Just kill me now," Mei groaned.
Okay this is the Mei chapter. I hope I got her right! Up next is: Ty Lee.
