A/N: Everyone ready for the karoke bar chapter?! I know I am! I know...Usually I upload a new challenge of "Camp Souls" before I upload a new chapter of "Camping is Funner With Friends", but I'm still trying to come up with a new challenge, so bear with me people! Anyway, enjoy the new chapter of "Camping is Funner With Friends".
The sun was beginning to set. The orange glow glimmered on the water's reflection. Tira was sitting on the beach watching the sun set. Nightmare was trying to figure out which suit of armor to wear to the karoke bar. The night before, Kilik invited both Tira and Nightmare to come with them to the karoke bar. Nightmare agreed, which means Tira has to come along as well. Tira, suprisingly, was excited.
Tira heard footsteps behind her. She turned around to see Nightmare in his SCIII 1P outfit.
"Tira, are you ready?" He asked. Tira got up and brushed the sand that was on her off.
"Yeah, yeah..."Tira answered.
Nightmare looked at her from head to toe. "You're wearing THAT?!"
Tira examined herself. She was wearing her SCIV 1P outfit. She looked back at Nightmare.
"Yeah...what's wrong about it?"
"Tira! We're going into town...where people are walking around. People see you looking like, they'll think your my girlfriend...or worse!"
"They wouldn't care. Ivy walks around with hardly anything on! The only bad thing that happens is that the angry wives and girlfriends beat up their boyfriends for looking at her!"
Xianghua, wearing her SCIV 2P outfit, popped out of nowhere, scarying both Nightmare and Tira...again. She had this psychotic smile on her face.
"Are we ready?" She asked in an unreasonablily loud tone. Nightmare and Tira slowly nodded. "OK, great! We can carpool together!"
"No," Nightmare said quietly. "I think we can take our-"
"Oh, I insist!" Xianghua said as she came inbetween Nightmare and Tira. She began shoving them to the red car.
Kilik, wearing his SCIV 1P outfit, was standing next to the driver's door. He smiled and waved. Nightmare returned the greeting with a small wave. Tira was looking at Xianghua and supressing the thought of killing her.
"Hello, neighbors!" Kilik greeted. "You ready?" Nightmare nodded slowly. "That's great."
Xianghua walked over to her honey-bunny. "You two can sit in the back if that's OK," She said.
Nightmare and Tira nodded slowly and got into the backseat, alleived they were still alive. Kilik got into the drivers seat and Xianghua got into the passenger seat. Kilik started the car, backed the car and drove away.
"So...how far is the town?" Tira asked.
"About six miles away," Kilik answered.
Tira leaned over to Nightmare. "That's not that bad," she whispered to him.
Nightmare shrugged.
Xianghua and Kilik were singing "Wheels on the Bus" the entire way. Nightmare was staring at the two weirdos, shocked, the entire time. Tira was hyperventilating.
"Get...me...out of...here!" Tira said inbetween breaths.
Nightmare was too speechless to even speak. The six miles seemed more like one-hundred miles, and when they got to the place, Nightmare and Tira jumped out of the car and gasped for air.
When they were done with that, they looked at the bright neon sign of the place. The sign said "Setsuka's Big Umbrella Drinks and Karoke Bar". Kilik and Xianghua got out the car.
"Man, that was fun!" Xianghua sais happily. Nightmare and Tira tried as hard as they could to not say something mean...ah, what the hell, they said it anyway.
"That wasn't fun! That was as scary as Nightmare's closet!" Tira snapped.
"Yeah!...Wait a sec! Tira! My closet isn't messy!"
Kilik and Xianghua walked past the two, with big happy smiles on their faces. Nightmare was guessing they were probably ignoring them or something. Soon enough, Nightmare and Tira followed after them.
Not a lot of people were there, but the area around the stage was full. A big man wearing a hood over his head was standing in front of the door and stopped the group.
"My name is Zasalamel," he said. "I'm the manager. If you complain about anything, I'll kill you. If you talk to me, I'll kill you. If you look at me, I'll kill you. Got it?"
Everyone, who was looking at the ground, nodded their heads. Zasalamel tried to smile, but it turned into a very ugly, lips curled back smile.
"Enjoy your stay here," he said. "But don't enjoy yourselves to much. Because if you do, I'll kill you."
Xianghua and Kilik walked on with Nightmare and Tira following them. The two in front looked around the room. A blonde woman then waved them over.
"Kilik! Xianghua! Over here!" the blonde babe yelled across the room.
Xianghua caught the lady waving and waved back.
"Sophitia! Hi!" Xianghua yelled back. She ranned over to her and the three followed.
Sophitia got up from her seat and hugged Xianghua, when she got there. Sitting in the chair next to Sophitia was her husband Rothion. Cassandra was right next to him. Across from them were their children, Pyrrha and Patroklos. Right next to them was Raphael's foster daughter, Amy.
"You have a new kid?" Xianghua asked.
"No," Sophtia answered. "Her father got in trouble and got sent to jail. We offered to take care of her for the time being."
"Kilik!" Rothion said, standing up to greet Kilik. "Long time no see!"
As Kilik and Rothion were engaging in conversation, Nightmare and Tira were standing around. Sophitia stopped talking to Xianghua for a second and looked at Nightmare and Tira.
"These are friends of yours...right?" she asked.
"Oh yeah!" Xianghua said walking over to Nightmare and Tira. She pointed at Nightmare. "This is Nightmare. And this is Tira."
The two gave an akward wave to Sophitia.
"Can we sit please?" Tira asked.
"Sure! But I want my grapefruit!" Cassandra said. "Where's my grapefruit?!"
"Hey! What did I say about complaining?!" Zasalamel yelled.
Tira sat down right next to Sophitia's children and gave psychotic smiles to the both of them. Xianghua sat next to Sophitia and Kilik sat next to Rothion. Amy was sitting there, playing with a knife. Cassandra was tapping her foot impatiently. Nightmare tried to find a place to sit, but couldn't find on at the table.
"Hey! There's no room for me," Nightmare complained.
"What did I just say?!" Zasalamel shouted.
"Oh...sorry Nightmare," Rothion said. "You can sit-"
"It's fine!" Nightmare interupted. He turned toward the bar. "I'm going to the bar..."
Nightmare walked over to the bar. Behind the bar was an unusually short man with long blonde hair, cleaning a glass. He turned around.
"My name is Siegfreid," the blonde hunk said. "What can I get you?"
"What's good here?" Nightmare asked.
"Well...we're having a special on the "Pink Elephant Pants" drink. It costs 15.99."
"Wow! That's a good deal! I'll take it."
Siegfreid made the drink and handed it to Nightmare. Nightmare quickly drank the drink that was in the tiny shot glass. (A/N: All that for fifteen bucks?!)
"More!" Nightmare yelled.
Two hours and thrity drinks later, Nightmare is drunk and still drinking. Astaroth and his lover, Necrid, were sitting close to Nightmare giggling and making out with eachother. Nightmare spinned around in his chair then glared at the happy couple.
"Oh-hic-get a room!" Nightmare said in his drunken stutter.
Astaroth and Necrid glared back before leaving the bar.
"I think you had enough sir..."Siegfried said quietly.
"I have not-hic-had enough!" Nightmare shouted. "Now, hit-hic-me!"
Siegfried rolled his eyes and got Nightmare another drink.
Setsuka walked onto the stage and a spotlight shined on her.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" Setsuka announced. "Welcome to "Setsuka's Big Umbrella Drinks and Karoke Bar"! Right now, we are starting our amatuer singing...thing. We already have a number of people signed up, so let's get this started!"
The crowd appuladed. When the clapping subsided, Setsuka continued speaking. " First, we have Cassandra. Is there a Cassandra here?"
Cassandra quickly stood up and ran onto the stage.
"OK! Here's your song and let's get started!" Setsuka said.
Setsuka walked off stage and the music to "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" starts up.
Cassandra: I come home in the morning light My mother says when you gonna live your life right Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones And girls they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night My father yells what you gonna do with your life Oh daddy dear you know you're still number one But girls they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have -
That's all they really want Some fun When the working day is done Girls - they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun
At the end, the crowd applaudes and Cassandra scurries off the stage. Setsuka walks back on with a sheet of paper in her hands.
"That was pretty good," Setsuka said. "Next, we have Kilik up next singing, "Everybody was Kung-Fu Fighting"!"
Kilik walks on the stage as Setsuka gets off.The song starts and Kilik sings off key on the high parts. (A/N: If there is any...I haven't listened to this song for like...ever!)
Kilik: Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...
Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those jerks were fast as lightning In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing
There was funky China men from funky Chinatown They were trapping when up, they were trapping when down It's an ancient Chinese art, and everybody knew their part For my friend, ain't you a stiff, then I'm kickin' from the hip
Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning In fact it was a little bit fright'ning, but they fought with expert timing
Little clapping is heard as Kilik walks off the stage. Nightmare, who is at the bar still, is booing and hissing.
"You-hic-suck!" Nightmare yelled.
Setsuka, is back on stage, trying to look for the one booing. She sees Nightmare and glares at him.
"Hey! You want to try to sing, buddy?!" She yelled at Nightmare.
"I would-hic- be glad to!" Nightmare said as he got slowly out of his seat.
As he wiggled and tripped on over to the stage, Tira tried to hide herself under the table.
When Nightmare got onto the stage and Setsuka walked off, the song "Don't Cha" begins to play. Nightmare immeditatily begins dancing very uncoordinatedly on the stage.
Nightmare: I know you want me (I know you like me) I know you do (I know you do) Thats why whenever I come around I'm all over you (she's all over you) I know you want it (I know you want it) It's easy to see (it's easy to see) And in the back of your mind I know you should be on with me
Dont cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? Dont cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? Dont cha Dont cha Dont cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me? Dont cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me?
Dont cha Dont cha
Nightmare is slurring and messing up a majority of the words. As soon as the song ends, no one claps or cheers or even boos. They just stared at Nightmare, who is dancing to no music. Setsuka walks slowly onto the stage and pushes Nightmare off. Nightmare face-plants the ground and slowly gets up and walks back to the bar.
"Alrighty...next up is Xianghua. Xianghua, please come up to the stage!"
Xianghua screams like a little girl and runs onto the stage. Setsuka, trying to hide annoyance from Xianghua's squeeling, calmly hands her the microphone and walks off stage.
"Yay! This is dedicated to my Kilik-chan!" Xianghua said pointing at Kilik. Tira repressed the urge to throw up, while Nightmare is spinning around in his chair, rambling on about ponies.
The song "Hit Me Baby One More Time" starts playing and Xianghua starts to sing, very tone-deaf like.
Oh baby baby, how was I supposed to know That something wasnt right here Oh baby baby, I shouldnt have let you go And now youre out of sight, yeah Show me how you want it to be Tell me baby cuz I need to know now, oh because
My loneliness is killin me (and I)
I must confess I still believe (still believe)
When Im not with you I lose my mind Give me a sign, hit me baby one more time!
After the first chorus, Tira, who is getting very pissed off at this point, throws a glass at Xianghua's head. Xianghua dodges it by moving, or more like dancing to the side. Tira groans and throws a vase at her. This time, the vase hits Xianghua on the head and Xianghua gets hit in the stomach, walks over to the edge of the stage and falls off of it. The song stop and everyone goes over to see if the crazy girl is OK. Xianghua jumps up, unharmed.
"OMG!! That was amazing!" Xianghua squeeled.
Sophitia looked at her watch. "I'm sorry," she said. "But we have to get going. We have to get the kids into bed and we have to get Cassandra back to the..."house"."
"That's OK," Kilik replied. He turned to look at Tira. "Are you coming?"
Tira looked over at Nightmare and looked back at Kilik. "I'm sorry. We'll find our own way home."
Kilik shrugged and everyone, except for Tira and Nightmare, exitted the club.
Three hours leter and it's almost closing time. Tira was watching Zasalamel and Setsuka sing "What is Love?". Nightmare was still at the bar, with Siegfried behind the bar still, slamming down at least thrity more drinks.
"Last call!" Siegfried yelled before going to the back.
Tira got up and walked over to bar. Nightmare spinned around in the chair once and then looked at Tira.
"Tira! What's up babe..." Nightmare said with a drunken slur.
"Nightmare! Can we go home?" Tira asked. "I'm tired and we need to get out."
"But Ti-hic-ra. We didn't drive..."Nightmare got out of the chair and fell onto the floor.
Siegfried came back from the back and looked at Tira. "Is this your dad?"
"No...He's my roommate," Tira said looking at Nightmare, who was now sleeping on the floor. She looked up at Siegfried and looked into his sparkling green eyes. She gazed into his eyes for the longest time...until-
"Are you moving in on my girl?" Nightmare said getting up. He placed his hand on the bar and glared at the handsome bartender.
"No," Siegfried said nervously.
"Oh..." Nightmare said before falling down to the ground again.
"Um...If you want, I can drive you home when I'm done with my shift," Siegfried suggested.
Tira's violet eyes sparkled as she look at the German Hunk. "I'd like that."
"OK then," Siegfried nodded. "I'll tell you when I'm done. Just wait outside with your friend."
Tira nodded and tried to help the sleeping Nightmare up. After several attempts, she was able to support him and got him out the door. Good Ol' Manager Zasalamel was standing next to the door and glaring down at Tira.
"Have a good night," he said. "If you didn't, I'll kill you."
Tira rolled her eyes and got outside, waiting for Siegfried to get done with work.
A/N: Hope you all like it! I'm so happy this story is getting so popular! Next time, Tira and the drunk Nightmare are getting a ride from the German Hunk, Siegfried. Thanks for reading. Please review and no flames.
