Yay,
another chapter. :D
This
one was originally supposed to be Skit 1…
But
then I got sidetracked, 'cuz I wanted to see how tall an average
Bionicle Toa set really was…
And
I couldn't find a ruler…
And,
um…
Yeah.
So Swamp Monsters was first, this is second, and, uh…
I
lost track of what I was saying…
OH! YEAH! A REVIEW! (Does happy dance) Go me, go reviews, go reviewers, go me, YAY, YAY!
Tahu: People, Danni's sanity has officially left the building.
Aw, shut up, Tahu. I'm still hyper.
Tahu: Is this about the candy thing?
Yes. THREE WHOLE PIECES OF CANDY FROM THE CUB SCOUT TRUNK-OR-TREAT! Victory! (Dances about with candy)
Tahu: T.T See how crazy she is? Going nuts over three lousy pieces of candy. Yeesh.
D:
But I wasn't in a costume… And I'm not a Cub Scout… An' I
thought the people would be all like, "GO AWAY, CRAZY WOMAN!"…
Oh.
Right. The review. Yeah.
Fire
Lady AKA Ruby Auto-something (Dang thing cut your name off… Sowwy):
THANK'EE
KINDLY. Didn't know that… Hum-m-m! Most interesting. Certainly a
better name than Olda… :D Okay! From now on, it's Mata. Hurrah!
Oh,
and here's that "more" stuff you wanted.
Anyways,
please turn any and all cell phones off, avoid throwing popcorn at
the screen, and enjoy the "Skit".
:D
Disclaimer:Everything that is mine belongs to me. Everything that's not belongs to Lego, Nintendo, and et cetera. All toys featured in this flick really do belong to me, except Kongu and Nuju, 'cuz I rescued them from my evil brothers, who destroy sets for fun. Sadly, Nuju was scarred for life and is now shyly hiding behind the pictures on my desk. Poor, poor Nuju.
Second Skit:
"Nujy"
"I'm bo-o-ored."
It
had to have been one of the hottest, dullest days of all time for the
two-story golden-yellow house in Imagia. The thermometers were broken,
so no
one could check; but everyone agreed anyway that if there had
been a day hotter or duller, they certainly hadn't been there to
experience it.
It
was hot enough to cook stir-fry on the front porch—they had done
that for lunch—so naturally no one was outside unless absolutely,
positively, the-world-will-explode-if-you-don't needed.
Takua yawned, looking about lazily to see if anyone had heard him. Judging by the lack of response, no one had.
((Authoress Note: Yeah, yeah. Takua's appearing a lot. Don't worry, other characters will appear in this skit, and the next Skit will focus on someone else. Though… D: Takua's so cute!!))
"I'm--"
he began again,
"I
heard you the first time." Takanuva interrupted, extremely annoyed.
The
arguing pair were lazily collapsed in front of their air
conditioner, both extremely bored and tired.
"What're
we gonna do?"
"We
could build another Lego castle and noose and pretend to execute the
Makuta set," Takanuva suggested.
"We
did that yesterday when the temperature was only ninety-seven
degrees."
"Oh
yeah. Well… we could play a videogame." Takanuva shrugged.
"Umm.
All of ours are boring and nobody else will let us play theirs."
Takua pointed out glumly.
Takanuva
frowned, trying to get his overheated brain to function properly. "I
thought Danni said yesterday that she'd lend you a game if it was
too hot to go outside today?"
Takua's
eyes widened. He had forgotten all about that… mainly because he
had stolen Tahu's fire sword out of boredom about five minutes
later, and spent the rest of the day trying not to get caught.
"You're right!" he exclaimed, jumping to his feet excitedly,
"That's what we'll do today!" and he rushed off to find
Danni.
Takanuva
yawned and rolled his eyes skyward. "Where the karzanhi did I get
all that energy from?" he wondered sleepily…
Several
minutes later, however, Takua was still having no luck in finding
Danni. He had searched almost everywhere he thought Danni might be on
such a hot day—the library, the computer room, the living room,
even the basement (quite a task, considering how many cats
were down there).
He
sighed, sitting on the bottom of the stairs that led to the second
floor. "Where could she be?" he moaned, quite gloomy now, "I've
searched every possible place."
"Searched everywhere? For what?"
Takua
jerked his head up and saw Pohatu, who had been passing by on his way
to the kitchen for more ice. Kopaka had needed some for some project
or other, and he had volunteered to get some.
"Danni,"
he replied sadly, "she's s'posed to lend me one of her
videogames today."
"Oh,"
Pohatu frowned, "You've checked the library?"
"Yep.
Library, computer room, living room, basement, everywhere."
Pohatu
frowned, thinking hard for a couple of moments. "What about her
room?"
"Huh?"
"You
know. Her room. Maybe she's there?" Pohatu suggested meekly.
"Oh…
Oh!" Takua looked rather shocked. He hadn't really thought
of that, probably because even getting into her room was
tough. "Wow, yeah, I bet she is there! Thanks, Pohatu!"
Takua scrambled up the stairs two at a time, grinning to himself.
Pohatu
merely shook his head and wandered off to get the ice. 'And
people say I'm dim!'
Takua
paused in front of Danni's door for a moment, hesitant. Danni did
not like "unwelcome visitors", she tended to throw them
into never-ending pits, along with various videogame characters to
torture them. Like that giant Owl in Legend of Zelda. Oh, how they
all hated that owl. All of them had spent some time in that pit, and
the owl had nearly driven them all insane with its constant talking.
But…
she had invited him, right?
And
that meant he was allowed in, right?
Right.
… He
hoped.
Slowly
opening the door, Takua poked his head in and looked about warily.
The "door to Danni's room" actually wasn't a door into her
room at all, you see, but a door leading to the hallway that led to
her room. Normally, this hall was filled with traps of all shapes and
sizes, but today they all seemed to be off.
'Better
check though.' Takua reasoned, looking around for something to
throw and spotting a pebble; it had probably been dragged in from
outside.
He
gently tossed it into the hall, counting the bounces as it tumbled
and rolled its way into the booby-trapped hall…
…
… And
nothing happened.
Takua breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stepped into the room, but before he could take more than a step inside—
Growl!
Takua
jumped back a little bit and looked about nervously. Someone—or
something—had growled at him.
He
couldn't see anything, though, so he tried to step forward
again—and this time heard a resounding yelp as his foot hit a
small, hard something on the ground.
Takua
jumped back again and looked down…
… And
saw a tiny, white toy, struggling to get back on its feet.
Takua
stared at the tiny toy in disbelief.
"No
entry," It stated, blue eyes glaring as it scrambled to its feet,
"Danni said so."
"Why
not?" Takua queried, sitting down in order to take a closer look at
the miniature anomaly and thinking about Danni's promise to lend
him one of her super-cool videogames today. He noticed, once he could
look at it properly, that the small creature looked rather like a
tall Rahi, with one arm shorter than the other and its legs far too
long, as if the poor thing had been mutated recently, or put together
wrong. He wondered what had convinced Danni that it would make a good
door-guard.
"Because
she said so." It growled stubbornly.
"Did
she say why?"
"No-o-o."
"Well,"
Takua said, slowly, "is she sick or something?"
"I don't
know," the oddly proportioned toy replied, getting annoyed, "and
I don't see why you're still hanging around."
"I
don't see why I have to be bossed around by something that's
about three inches tall, either." Takua pointed out, frowning.
The
toy growled again, enraged. Apparently it didn't like references to
its size. "Danni said no-one is to go through. So, I'm not
letting anyone through." Its logic appeared to be rather flawed.
Takua
sighed, and then got an idea. "Oh, fine." He grumbled,
leaving—but only for a moment. The instant the door closed, he
rushed off to find Corcra. If anyone could get him into that room, it
would be him... even if he did look too much like a cat for
comfort.
Corcra, by the way, was a giant cat-creature about 6'7 in height, short purple fur, violet eyes, and quite the Psychic. His species was known as "Mewtwo", but Danni called him Corcra… so Corcra he was. Due to the fact he lacked the proper sort of vocal chords, he couldn't speak English—but he managed to get his messages across anyway.
"So,"
Corcra said skeptically, via telepathy, "you are saying an
animated collection of plastic Lego pieces is preventing you from
entering Danni's room?"
"Well,
when you put it that way," Takua pouted, "but if I
squished the thing, Danni would be mad, and if I didn't, the toy
would be mad and poke my eyes out with those little ice-spikes it's
got, or something."
Corcra
shrugged. "So, what is the problem?" Corcra hated
contractions, if only because he sounded more impressive when he
didn't use them—but also because he never quite got over the fact
that "will not" became "won't", which of course isn't
really logical. (Why does it become won't? Why not win't?
Wiln't? Where did that extra 'o' come from? The 'not'?
But why did it move, then? Hmm…)
"Well,
I was sort of thinking that you could, you know, um," Takua began
nervously; he always found it a bit hard to talk to the "Psychic
Kitty"—considering how every cat he'd ever met seemed to think
him a rather large and colorful plaything, I guess his felinophobia
may be excused.
"Get
to the point," Corcra cut in coldly.
"Teleport
me into Danni's room?" Takua finished meekly.
Corcra
made a small, chuckle-like noise; the first time Takua had ever heard
Corcra use any medium other than Telepathy to get a point across.
"Her room is teleport-proof, unless she does the teleporting,"
he pointed out, highly amused, "but… if you could, say, find a
way to become invisible… I might be able to teleport you
into the hall, not too far from the inner doorway."
Takua
grinned, not caring that becoming invisible was a near-impossible
task. "Hurray! Legend of Zelda, here I come!" he crowed
victoriously, rushing off to figure out just how someone could
become invisible.
Corcra
merely shook his head at the young Chronicler's exuberance and
floated back to his room, where he… um… did whatever the karzanhi
he does in there. He could be doing nuclear experiments for all I
know. Hey, when you've got enough psychic power to break a person's
mind into a thousand tiny pieces, nobody bothers you much.
(Hey,
has anyone here played Super Smash Bros. Melee before? Ever noticed
how Mewtwo does everything (whacking people with his tail
being the exception,) using his psychic powers? Seriously, he doesn't
even walk, just floats… spookily… like a ghost… oO)
Takua
didn't seem to be very lucky today, however. Takanuva, of course,
had no clue as to how one became invisible, and nearly everyone else
he passed by didn't know either.
So,
there he was again, stuck.
"What's
a guy have to do to become invisible around here, anyway?" he
complained, trudging upstairs again in a depressed sort of way.
"Gosh, I don't know. Why do you want to?"
Takua
whirled around, spotting Gali at the foot of the stairs, looking up
at him curiously.
"So
that Corcra can teleport me into Danni's hallway so that I can
sneak past that little toy that's guarding the entrance so that I can get the awesomeness that is Legend of Zelda." He
explained glumly.
Gali
frowned. She wasn't sure if she quite understood what the
tiny Chronicler was getting at, but the problem was easy to
comprehend. "Hmm," she hummed, "Perhaps Kopaka will have
something. He usually has some sort of nifty, useful invention floating about in his
lab. Why don't you ask him?"
Takua
frowned. "Where is he? Oh, wait, let me guess: the other end of the
house," he groaned.
Gali
laughed, shaking her head. "He's in his lab right now, working on
a robot of some sort for Danni. Don't ask me why she wants
one. She's weird that way."
Takua
shrugged. "Well, it's worth a shot. Thanks, Gali!"
"No
problem. Good luck with… whatever it is you're doing!" she
beamed, watching the colorful mischief-maker rush off to find Kopaka.
'Poor thing,' she thought, 'he gets so bored
when he can't play outside. I hope he isn't going to get into any
trouble…'
"Wait.
You want an invisibility device, why?"
Takua
sighed. Kopaka could be rather annoying when it came to lending out
his precious 'devices'. "Because there's this rotten little
toy guarding Danni's door, and in order to get past it and its evil
little ice-spikes, I need to be invisible… and possibly teleport in
there… maybe. And if I get in there, I can borrow a game from
Danni, which will keep me out of trouble for the next fifteen hours."
He was getting rather unsure about the teleportation part. Why not
just walk in there? After all, if Corcra couldn't teleport
him into Danni's actual room, then why go through all that bother
at all?
Kopaka
frowned. He was mentally going through a list of his inventions,
trying to think of something that might work. The thought of the
colorful 'little monster' being out of everyone's way for
fifteen hours sounded like a good reason to lend him an invention.
"Well," he began, slowly, "I do have a cloaking device…"
"Yes!
Could I, um, borrow it? How does it work?"
"I
suppose," Kopaka shrugged, beginning to dig through various
items in a closet, "but you'd have to be careful."
"Why?"
"Stops
working if you get hurt. Or after fifteen minutes."
"Oh."
"Here
you go."
Kopaka
tossed Takua a round, purple device with a large, black button on the
top. It was small enough to fit comfortably in Takua's hand.
"So,
I just push the button and sneak past the little monster?" Takua
confirmed, looking over the small machine skeptically.
"Yes.
Bring it back after. It'll need recharging." Kopaka nodded, going back to work on the
robot as Takua left. 'Crazy kid.'
"Well,
here goes nothing," Takua sighed. He was waiting for Corcra to
teleport him, (Corcra had reminded him that a door opening on its own
would look funny,) nervously looking down at the small Cloaking
Device in his hand. "This thing had better work…"
"Yes,
quite," Corcra agreed, "Shouldn't you use it before you
get teleported? A being seemingly flickering in and out of existence
would be… unusual."
"Oh,
yeah," Takua admitted, sheepishly. He jabbed at the black button,
and waited patiently. For a moment, he thought it wasn't
working—then he felt the odd sensation of a gallon of water pouring
over his head. "Whoa. Am I…?"
"Invisible,"
Corcra finished, with a nod, "Most impressive. I shall have to
visit Kopaka later and see what other lovely inventions he's got.
Now, are you ready?"
Takua
nodded, and Corcra teleported him. It was an unpleasant feeling—for
one split second, he felt as though someone had split him in two, and
half of him was still back in front of Corcra. Then the other half
seemed to catch up, and he was standing in the middle of Danni's
hallway. 'Awesome!' he thought, grinning an invisible
grin, 'Let's see that little freak stop me, now!'
'That little freak', by the way, had been quietly sitting by the door for the past hour, waiting patiently for another foolish person to invade the room. Danni, after all, had told it to make sure no one came in… And, of course, nobody, but nobody disobeyed Danni.
Pop!
The
small toy whirled around. The noise had been nearly inaudible, even
to its enhanced hearing, but it had been there. Its blue eyes
narrowed as he carefully scanned the room. There didn't appear
to be anything… But then, what had made that noise? Noises didn't
just pop into existence without anything causing them.
The
toy frowned to itself, listening hard for a moment. There hadn't
been any more sounds since the odd pop, but…
Thump, thump.
There!
The toy sniffed the air cautiously, stalking the unseen creature with
instinctive accuracy. Something was in the room with it, and
it was not about to let that something just run around
causing havoc.
The
small set grinned to itself, showing off a set of sharp, needle-like
teeth as it traced the larger being's path. Whatever that creature
was, it was about to get a very painful warning… a warning to
never, ever enter Danni's room when she didn't wish to be
bothered…
Takua,
meanwhile, was making his almost-silent way across the hall, his
heart pounding wildly. He knew that the tiny toy couldn't possibly
find him when he was invisible, but he was nervous nonetheless. While
the Cloaking-machine could hide him from sight, it couldn't block
out the sound of his footsteps. And the thing looked so much like a
Rahi… 'Well, it had better not have the hearing to match,'
he thought grimly, 'or--'
He
never finished the thought.
Yeah,
I'm really bad at suspense, so here you go: that 'little freak'
pounced and bit Takua.
Hard.
With
those pointy teeth that feel like needles.
Yeah.
"Ouch!
Get off of me!" Takua yelped, attempting to shake the tiny creature
off of his hand. He noted that he could now see his hand. Kopaka was right, getting hurt did make the Cloaking device stop working.
Anyways.
There
was no response from the toy, unless you consider biting even harder
a sort of response. Now, it seemed, more toys were appearing
out of thin air—some of them wriggling out from under Danni's
door, others seemingly coming in out of nowhere. They formed a sort
of crowd a safe distance from Takua, all of them staring at their
fellow Lego set attack the intruder.
One
of the toys (this one Takua recognized as a mini-Kongu,) spoke up
suddenly. "Hurrah for Nuju!" he squeaked, hopping up and down
excitedly. "Get 'im, get 'im!"
The
other toys were quick in joining the miniscule Matoran. "Hurray!"
"Get him!" "Yay for Nuju!"
Then,
suddenly, the door jerked open.
"Get
who?" asked a sleepy voice.
Everyone
stared at the newcomer for a long moment, Takua almost forgetting the
fact that what felt like twenty-six needles were stuck in his hand.
"Danni!"
the toys cried, hiding behind her now, "There's an intruder
in our hall!"
Danni,
who looked quite pale and tired, stared at Takua for a moment, then
noticed Nuju. "Oh-h-h dear," she sighed, kneeling down to inspect
the toy that still had a stubborn death grip on Takua's hand. "I
knew today was going to be a bad day… Come on, Nujy, let go of poor
Takua for me, will you?"
Takua
grimaced. "Well, gosh. He let go by about two centimeters. How very
ni—ow!"
… Nuju was, evidently, not in the mood for sarcasm.
Danni
sighed. "Please, Takua, if you want me to get Nujy off of
you, you have to shut up and stop insulting him." She
grumbled, softly murmuring to Nuju as she attempted to "get him off
of Takua".
Eventually,
after a few more sarcastic comments ("What the karzanhi kind of
name is Nujy, anyway?" "Oh, shut up about my pet names or
I'll make one for you. His name is actually Nuju Hordika,
and don't you make any more comments or we'll be here all day.
Hordika aren't very reasonable about these things.") and a few
more yelps of pain, Nuju was safely on top of Danni's head and
Takua jammed his hand in his mouth.
The
colorful Chronicler attempted to say something.
Danni
stared at him. "Takua, you might want to take your hand out of
your mouth before you--" she stopped suddenly, her words cut
off by a sudden attack of coughs.
Takua
looked at her worriedly, and removed his hand long enough to wonder,
"Are you alright?"
"No,"
Danni growled, annoyed, "This danged cold won't leave me alone
for two seconds. I think Nature likes to make the first day of a cold
so bad for me, as revenge for not getting sick the rest of the year.
What are you doing--" she was cut off by coughs again, burying her
face in her hands to make sure nobody else got the cold-germs.
"You
promised me a videogame today." Takua reminded her, now inspecting
the tiny wounds that Nuju had made. They weren't too deep, but they
were bleeding and they did hurt.
The
young, sick Authoress' eyes widened. "I did? Oh, gosh.
Sorry, Takua. I totally forgot. Dumb cold," she moaned, turning to
open the door and pausing to let a flood of toys through, "if I had
remembered, I wouldn't have accidentally set Nujy on you… Come on
in; don't touch anything if you can help it. Dunno if you guys can
catch colds, but I don't want to risk it…"
Several days later…
"Yes!"
Takua
carefully shut the door behind him and waited patiently. 'Wait
for it… Wait for it…'
"AIYEEHHH! Who took my earring?"
Takua
grinned to himself, looking down at the tiny, glimmering jewel he
held in his hand. "If I don't get thrown in the pit for this,
it'll be a miracle… Go miracles! Now, where to hide this…"
The
mischievous Chronicler looked around… and spotted a small, white
figure hiding in the shadow of the door.
"Here,
hold this for me," he grinned even wider, rushing out of the hall
to find a safe hiding spot.
Nuju
looked at the earring he held, blue eyes widening with shock. "Oh,
karzanhi…"
HURRAY! Finished another skit… This one is really just a muddled mix-up of all sorts of things.
The opening paragraph, I took from one of my… failed… stories. (See, this is why I rarely put anything up. Everything fails before I give it a proper chance.)
Ending paragraph I think was from one of my old, posted comedies… the SSBM one… but I forget… I know it came from something of mine, though.
(What? You want to know why I can't just go through my old stuff? Well, BECAUSE I'VE GOT AT LEAST THIRTY "OLD-STUFFS". (Insert anime sweatdrop here))
Nuju, that shy, stubborn little fellow, was taken from my brothers. My brothers liked to pretend that he was biting me, and would scream bloody murder if I didn't pretend to be hurt from the pretend-biting.
At least, they did that until they broke him down into tiny pieces.
Now, as I've said before, he just hides behind the picture of my cousin on my desk.
Poor little Nujy.
Anyways…
Yeah…
I
could use some more ideas here. I've got at least 2-3 more skits
worth floating 'round in my head…
(Woot,
more living toys! Living toys are cool! Nuju Hordika is cute! Shut up
about my weirdness! Uh… Snoogleflarx?)
(Cough)
Right. So. 2-3 more skits, if I'm lucky, then my ideas all go POOF.
I've
caught on to those darned ideas!
Yes
indeedy!
They're
all out to get me!
See,
there's one right now!
Idea: Ha ha! By the time you have time to write me out, I'll be halfway to Mexico! See yah sucker! (Whoosh. It's gone.)
T.T
Yes... All out to get me, I say…
ALL
OF THEM! D:
