(October 30, 12:46 am)
(in a SpongeBob narrator-like voice) Three years later...
I am SO sorry I've been neglecting my older work, but new stuff just keeps coming along and getting my attention and then everything else gets put on hold indefinitely, and... I'm lazy. There, I said it. But seriously, this chapter is so freakin' outdated, as you will see. (I have since finished the series, and it brought me to tears.) Hope you enjoy it anyway! New stuff is on its way! (...probably)
episode 3, pt. 2
"Alrighty, welcome back to Whose Line: Anime Style, where everything's made up and the points don't matter. So if the points were on Naruto, they'd be the fillers." Shigure laughed, and I grinned at him. "You don't know what a filler is, do you?"
"Not a clue."
"Okay then!" I went on. "We're gonna move on now to a little game called. . . HOEDOWN!" And the crowd goes wild! "Yeah, so this is for everyone, with the help of my buddy InuChick155!" InuChick waved to the audience from her position at the piano as Tohru and the Sohmas stood on the stage and I turned to the audience. "Alright, so what I need now is an example of a group of people that scares you."
And then I heard the perfect suggestion...
"Fangirls! That'll totally work!" I turned back to the four onstage. "Okay, guys, let's hear the Fangirl Hoedown. InuChick, take it away." The music started, the audience clapped, and Yuki got things started.
I have lots of fangirls, they're all over the place
But everybody seems to think I'm just a pretty face
They should get to know me, 'cause I'm a decent guy
And if they don't I'll have Kagura sock 'em in the eye
Kyo was supposed to be next. But he didn't do anything at first.
"...Kyo?" I said. "Dude, you're up."
"Uh-uh," he said back, shaking his head.
"Aw, c'mon, please! Ya gotta have something!"
"I got nothin'."
"Will ya just do the stinkin' Hoedown?"
"No!"
"Do it!"
"No!"
"Do it!"
"No!"
I just smiled after that. "Oh, Kaguraaa..."
Kyo's eyes widened. "Oh, y'know what? I just came up with something!"
"That's what I wanna hear!" I cheered.
Kyo nodded, then turned away and rolled his eyes (yes, Kyo, I saw that) before getting on with the show.
I have a fangirl that drives me up the wall
If I had it my way, she would not know me at all
I'll be lucky if she doesn't put me in a coma
'Cause this is one tough chick, her name's Kagura Sohma
Kagura happened to be sitting in the audience. I'm not quite sure what she thought of that, but it was enough to keep her quiet for a little while...
Okay, onto Shigure.
I love all my fangirls, I love them all a lot
Other than my family, they are all I've got
But something very strange is going on with them
Even though I have so many, some think I like men
I turned around and saw Ayame also in the audience. I turned back to Shigure and said, "Couldn't imagine why." He shrugged in agreement, taking my comment seriously. Tohru's turn!
I don't see why everyone thinks fangirls are a threat
With a few exceptions, I've seen nothing drastic yet
But I've got a secret, just between me and you
I kinda like these guys, so I guess I'm a fangirl, too
all: I'm a fangirl, tooooo!
Bzz! Bzz!
As the four went back to their seats, all I could do was laugh. After a moment, I caught my breath (and a few weird stares in my direction) and sighed, "Thousand points to all four of you fangirls." Then I laughed again. The others were staring at me like what I'd just said was the stupidest thing in the world.
...Okay, so it was. Whatever.
"...Yyyeah. So, uh, let's move onto a game now called Number of Words! This is for everybody, once again..." The four stepped back down. "Okay, this game is kinda self-explanatory. These guys are gonna act out a scene, but each of them has only a specific number of words they can use whenever they talk. Yuki and Kyo are gonna start out the scene, then Shigure and Tohru are gonna come in later. The scene is... (look at card) Inuyasha -Kyo- is in a fierce battle with Sesshomaru- Yuki." I was then cast a weird look. "Hey, you coulda been Kagura." He shrugged, and I went on. "Tohru is Kagome, and Shigure is..." I gave him a moment to guess.
"Rin?"
"Jaken."
"AUGHHH! At least Rin's cute!"
I gave him a look. Clearly that hadn't come out right. And if it had... ew. "And they are watching from the sidelines, prepared to jump in and stop the fight at any time. Now, Yuki, you can only say three words, Kyo, you can only say five, Tohru, you can say four, and Shigure, you only get to say two."
Shigure gave me a look. "What is it, Mess With Shigure Night?"
I thought for a second, then shrugged. "Sure, why not?"
"Works for me," said Kyo. Yuki nodded. Tohru just stayed out of it.
"So," I went on, "whenever you two are ready, go ahead and start us off."
Yuki and Kyo stood facing each other. Yuki started off, "Prepare to die."
"I don't think so," Kyo shot back, ". . . Sesshomaru."
"Someone can't count," Yuki smirked.
Kyo growled. "Shut up ya freakin' jerk!"
At that moment, Tohru and Shigure rushed onto the scene... Well, Shigure kinda scurried. He was standing on his knees. "Inuyasha, what's going on?" cried Tohru.
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Shigure squawked in a voice that cracked everyone up.
Kyo just gave him a weird look. "What is up with you?"
"...Bad fly," replied Shigure, rubbing his throat and faking a hack-like cough.
"Well, if you say so," Kyo shrugged.
"That's right!"
"Jaken, zip it," said Yuki.
"Yes sir."
Yuki then faced Kyo again. "Now face my..." He pointed to the imaginary sword in his other hand.
Kyo snickered. "What, your wimpy little Tenseiga?"
Yuki glared at him. "The other one," he corrected.
Tohru gasped. "Oh no, not Toukijin!"
"Is that what it's called?" Kyo asked her.
"Last time I checked," Tohru shrugged. Kyo nodded and went with that. Then he looked at Yuki, a little confused.
"Wait, I thought you had-" He pretended to chop off his left arm.
Yuki was suddenly hit in the face with realization. "Oh, that's right."
Kyo rolled his eyes. "Yeah, but I'm the idiot."
"Got that right."
"Aw man, why I oughta..." Kyo growled.
Tohru looked at Shigure curiously. "Wait, what just happened?"
"Beats me."
Tohru shrugged... then, in her Tohru-ness, stumbled forward for no reason. "Whoa, I'm going down!"
Kyo looked at Tohru, who was coming straight for him. "Oh, for the love of-"
POOF!
That worked out well.
"I am so sorry!" Tohru cried.
Shigure and Yuki just stared. "Oh dear."
"What the heck?"
Bzz! Bzz!
As the two went back to their seats, Tohru gathered Kyo's clothes and put them on his chair. He proceeded to sit himself down on top of them.
While Tohru was being a nervous wreck about her little screw-up, I was laughing at my desk. "I can't believe we almost went the whole episode without anyone transforming."
"It's ridiculous, really," agreed Shigure.
I gave him a look. "I didn't ask you."
"Sorry."
"..Anyway, thousand points to everyone, and, uh, by the way, if I can just say this: I just read volume 10 and 11, Kyo, Yuki, you guys are so cute!"
Kyo slightly blushed. "Um... thanks?" Yuki replied.
I smiled. "So, Tohru, who would you go for of the two of them?"
"Ehh?" Tohru's eyes bugged and her face went red. "Oh, I- I couldn't possibly favor one over the other. They're both very nice and I care about them so much a-"
POOF!
"Ah, crap!"
As the audience screamed -either in shock or excitement, you decide- Kyo darted behind his chair before anyone could see anything. A moment passed. Then...
"Forgetting something?" Yuki smirked.
Kyo's hand shot out, grabbed his clothes, and went back behind the chair as he growled, "Shut up."
"...Oh-kay, I think now would be a good time to go to a break. So, uh, we'll be right back with Whose Line: Anime Style! Don't go anywhere, the winner will be revealed shortly!"
XXXXXXXXXXXX
"Welcome back to Whose Line: Anime Style!" I shouted, sitting at a table with Yuki. "Tonight's winner: Tohru Honda!"
Tohru smiled, sitting at my desk. "Thank you so much! It's such an honor-"
"Tohru," I replied, also smiling. "It's Whose Line, not an awards show. And, it was my pleasure."
"...Right," Tohru sweatdropped.
I went on to the audience, "So, me and the losers have to do a game for you guys called Themed Restaurant. Now, in this game, Yuki and I are at a restaurant on a dinner date and Kyo and Shigure are two waiters, but the restaurant we're at has a bizarre theme, and, Tohru, what is that theme?"
Tohru glanced around nervously. "I...I'm not sure."
"The card," I whispered, motioning to my desk.
"Oh! Right, of course!" Tohru shuffled through my crapload of papers and other stuff (I'm not exactly known for my neatness) until she pulled out a card with the words THEMED RESTAURANT written in huge letters with a highlighter, so whoever needed it wouldn't miss it. She then read from the card curiously, "'DragonBall Z'?"
"Nice!"
Everyone stared at Kyo, who quickly stuck his hands in his pockets and looked away, as if he hadn't just expressed some form of happiness to be on the show at that moment.
"...Alright," I finally said, "so, let's do this, the DBZ-themed restaurant."
Yuki started us off, touching my hand and saying, "I'm really glad you could make it."
I didn't let on that my pulse had started going about three times as fast at that moment, and instead replied sweetly, "Oh, I wouldn't have missed this for anything. Besides, I hear this place is really good."
Yuki nodded as Shigure walked up to us. "Here's some water," he said before turning to look at something and then pretending to be blown up, falling to the floor with a scream and crawling away.
I raised an eyebrow. "Did you see that?"
"Yeah," Yuki responded casually. "They do it all the time." As I contemplated this, Yuki called Kyo over. "Excuse me, could we have some menus?"
Kyo jumped onto the stage, then handed us each an invisible menu before jumping back out of the scene.
While Yuki was silent, I commented, "That, uh, that was some impressive teleporting right there."
He quickly caught on. "Oh, yeah, it sure was."
Shigure walked back up to the table, them mimed a Kamehameha and yelled, "BREEEEEEAAAAAAAAAD!"
After a slight pause in the action, Yuki replied, "...Thanks."
Shigure smiled. "You're welcome."
As he walked away, Yuki looked at his menu. "'Chiaotzu,' is that some kind of sushi?"
"I dunno. Hey, is it cold in here?"
Yuki shrugged. "Yeah, I guess a little."
I shivered. "I feel like I'm sitting in a Freeza."
Several groans came from the audience. Along with an orange. Yeah, not quite sure where that came from...
"...Right," Yuki coughed awkwardly. "So, uh, you know what you want yet?"
I looked down at my imaginary menu as Shigure and Kyo sparred their way across the background. "Yeah, I think I'm set," I answered. "You want me to summon up the waiter?"
"Sure."
I turned in my seat and called, "'Scuse me, we'd like to order."
Shigure slowly walked over to the table and said in a deep, booming voice, "Whyyy haaaave yooouuu summoooned meeeeeee?"
"Uh, I'd like a Vegeta burger."
"And I'll have the Popo Platter."
"Aaaaaaas yoooooouuu wiiiiiiiiiish..."
Yuki and I looked down at the table, surprised to see our 'dinner' had already arrived by the time Shigure walked away. "Wow, the service here is great," Yuki commented.
"Yeah, but it seemed like he was going a little Princess Bride before he left..."
"Right..."
I groaned. "Ugh, I need a fork." I noticed Kyo walk onstage, so I said to him, "Excuse me, could I have-"
I was cut off, however, by the classically obnoxious sound of a Saiyan powering up. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"...Could I-"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!"
"...I'd like a-"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!"
"You're totally screwing with me now, aren't you?"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!"
By now, I was so fed up that I got out of my chair and smacked him across the head. And with that, Tohru buzzed the game to a close. I turned to face the audience, smiling as if I hadn't just assaulted Kyo.
"Okay, that's all the time we have for this edition of Whose Line: Anime Style! See ya next time, everybody!"
YES! It's finally finished! God, I am SO sorry this took so long for me to update, but as I stated earlier, I got lazy. But worry not! A new chapter is a-comin'! And, guys, please send me your ideas! It can be an episode you'd like to see, a scene, a character suggestion, anything at all! It'd help me get through some writer's blocks in the future. And, as always, reviews are great, too!
On another note, eeeeep! Six-year anniversary comin' up! Can you believe it? Thanks for all your support over the years, everyone!
Next episode: Toradora!
