Yo, everyone. I'm back with another chapter.
I know that Halloween is over, but I just wanted to know of how everyone's Halloween was. In my case, I didn't went out Trick or Treating. I stayed home instead.
Plus I also want to say to everyone a happy Thanksgiving, even thought Thanksgiving isn't here yet.
Sherry: (Shudders)
Brago: Now what's your problem?
Sherry: Brago, I now know how you feel when Rahkshi was torturing you in his other Christmas story. Now he won't stip torturing me.
Me: (Sneaks up behind Sherry and mimics Zofis' snicker in her ear. I gotten better at it by the way)
Sherry: WILL YOU STOP THAT?
Me: NEVER! NOW BOTH OF YOU COWARD BEFORE MY POWER!
Brago and Sherry: (Become chibish and are cowering before me, with evil fires behind me while I'm mimicking Zofis' laugh)
Bold and Italic is me narrating.
Chapter 3: Mischief in Mamodoville.
In a dark alley in the town of Mamodoville, a lid of a sewer hole slightly opened. Dark violet eye peeked through the darkness, checking the surroundings.
"It's clear," a familiar voice hissed as the lid was fully shut again. But just as it was fully shut, a powerful punch blasted the lid right off the sewer hole sending it flying straight into space. Zeno climbed out of the hole. He was wearing a black cloak with a hood over himself. "Hurry up!"
"I'm hurrying." Dufort spoke back, also wearing a black cloak with a hood, climbing out of the hole. "WHAAAAAAAA!" he slipped on the edge of the hole and fell, making contact with the ground face first.
"Quit messing around, we got work to do." the mamodo hissed and before you know it, he took off running somewhere, his hood over his head.
Dufort raised his head up, observing his surroundings. Oh how long has it been since last time we've been here, thought the psychic mortal. What's more, how long has it been since he been amongst his own kin? When he ran away from the insane asylum that once held him a prisoner in life. And almost among death, was when he first met Zeno, who was also among the verge of death. How long... has it been?
"Dufort... get over here!" his comrade/ally/friend's voice was heard from behind him at the end of alley. The human got to his feet and approached the lightning kid.
"Where have you been?"
"Doing something. Lets go already." Zeno responded impatiently. Dufort didn't replied but followed his companion out into the busy streets instead. Some of the mamodo were looking strangely at the two as they walked down the busy streets, their cloaks covering their whole forms. Both of them ignored the ignorant fools who didn't know manners of not to stare at others. "Hey, check this out."
Zeno whispered to his companion as a bicycle carrying several mamodos passed by him and Dufort. "It's just a bike," Dufort whispered back.
"Just watch," the mamodo replied. Suddenly, the bicycle fell part and the mamodo riding on it hit the ground, knocking several other mamodo and causing a racket of random talking and noises of stuff crashing. "Holy cow, someone has sabotage that vehicle! You see what I keep telling you every year, Dufort? The city's a dangerous place. That's why we live up in the mountains."
"You're a mean one, Zeno," the human spoke, eyeing down at his companion.
Zeno looked up at the young adult, his eyes glaring at Dufort's, as if he was just insulted. "I'll take that as a complement sir, thank you,"
"I mean it that way,"
"Lets go have some more fun."
"Excuse me sir, do you have any spare change that I can use to buy some candy with please?" A little girl came up from behind Zeno. The lightning turned around gave an extremely happy smile at the female mamodo. The smile looked more creepy than happy.
"No, but I sure have a present here, kid," Zeno handed the girl the saw he used earlier to sabotage that bicycle. "Make sure you run really fast with it now."
"Wow, thank you, little boy!" the girl said happily.
"Yeah, yeah, now GET LOST!" Zeno suddenly grabbed the girl and turned her around so her back was facing him and he kicked her off screen like getting rid of an annoying fly. He sighed in frustration as he pulled out a small tape recorder from his cloak and spoke into it. "Note to self: No matter the situation, don't smile like that again."
Now why does Zeno hate Christmas so much? Don't ask why, because I honestly don't know. Um... well actually I do know, but I'm not gonna spoil it. So I'm gonna say a couple of lies. Could it be that perhaps his shoes were too tight? Or maybe perhaps his head wasn't screwed on right?
"Hey, moron who's narrating! My shoes fit on just fine and my head fine the way it is! So keep quiet or so help me I'll make you regret for ever making this sequel!" Zeno shouted out loud at me in public.
"Who are you talking to," asked the human.
"I don't know. Some guy who seems to be narrating story. He just asked that maybe my shoes don't fit or is my head isn't on right."
"That's it? I thought you were just losing your mind and going psycho."
"Dufort!" Zeno growled angrily, glaring at the psychic blond as his eyes shining through the darkness in his hood. "WRAAARRRRGGGHHH!" the mamodo leaped straight Dufort and began thrashing at him repeatedly.
Geez, what's his problem?
"I'm so mad that I can just..." Zeno couldn't find the words to finish his sentence, but reached into a pocket of his black cloak and pulled out a black marble. He roared in frustration as he threw the marble out into the streets. A mamodo that was passing by stepped on the marble and slipped, tossing the stuffing he was carrying into the air and hitting two other civilian mamodos, making them fall back and knocking down a lot of other civilians as if they were dominos.
One of the civilians was sent flying straight onto a car, making it crash into a lamppost, causing it to fall down onto a watermelon stand. The racket caused two flower pots hanging on the balcony of a second-story window to fall onto the head of two unfortunate civilians. The chaotic racket went on until the black marble flew out of the mess and rolled itself down the street. Zeno's foot pressed onto the black marble, stopping it in its tracks and was picked up by the lightning mamodo.
"What is it really?" Zeno said with an evil smile on his face. "A child's play toy? Or a weapon of mass destruction?" And then he turns and is now looking at all of you people who are reading this chapter. "You be the judge."
A few minutes later, Zeno and Dufort were having more fun causing chaos in the town of Mamodoville. They were still wearing the black cloaks over themselves by the way.
A civilian mamodo that was passing by when he spot a candy cane that happened to be Reese's peanut butter flavor. "Cool." the civilian was too stupid to notice that there was a string connected to the candy cane. Just as the mamodo too a bite into the candy cane, the string that was attached to it suddenly lifted the mamodo into the air. It was Zeno who was using a fishing pole, with the candy cane as the bait.
"I got a big one! Man, I love the great outdoors!" the lightning kid said out loud.
"Zeno, check this one out." the mamodo's companion shouted out to him. He looked down from the roof the building at Dufort, who began walking out into the streets. The human stood right behind a traffic cop and began making different signs than the traffic cop, signaling the cars to move right now. The next thing you all know, a bunch of cars end up crashing into either each other or into buildings or stands or lampposts. More civilians were running around screaming like lunatics.
Zeno jumped down from the roof and regrouped with Dufort. "So? What do you think?"
"Not bad," Zeno replied until he caught a glimpse of something from the corner of his eye. "Aha! That's the place we need to go." he pointed at a nearby building called Mamodoville's National Postoffice. Zeno and Dufort rushed passed all the destruction and chaos they caused with their little mischief of fun and went around the building to the back door.
"You got it?"
"It's lock," Zeno turned the knob but the door wouldn't open. "Hold on," he took a few steps back and swung his foot at the door, kicking it open. "Lets go get our stuff," the mamodo went in. He sensed that his companion wasn't following him. "Dufort?"
Dufort stopped and looked back out at streets. His eyes were locked onto a food stand that was selling hotdogs. He took a step towards the hotdog stand.
"You're coming too!" Zeno grabbed the human by his hand and pulled him off screen into the building.
"Yo, human, what's taking so long!"
"I'm sorry!"
Inside the post office, a group of impatient mamodo civilians were shouting crowding in front of the clerk, who happened to be a female human with short brown hair, brown eyes, and was wearing a light blue dress.
"Hey, Koko, can you put this into the shelving system for me please? I'll take over for you." a friendly mamodo employee as he handed the human a blue gift box and stepped to take her place at the register.
"Thank you, Gummi." the human thanked her fellow employee and went around the back as Gummi tried to clam down the impatient customers.
I wonder how long it has been since I moved here, thought the brunette. A year has passed ever since she moved from Humanville to Mamodoville. She was able to find a nice apartment for her, and she just got her new job at the postoffice a few days ago. Of course it was getting a bit out of hand since the holidays are coming, but she knows she'll get through. But still... that doesn't mean she wasn't alone.
"Sherry," Koko uttered as she reached into the collar of her dress and pulled out a necklace with a small locket attached to it. Pressing a small switch, it opened up revealing a picture her and Sherry when they were young kids in school. The blond had two yellow rings with black markings on her fingers, one on each hand, and Koko had two yellow earrings with black markings, one on each ear. And standing next to the blond was little Brago when he was a kid. Sherry felt that the little mamodo was so alone when they were in school that she helped included him into the shot.
(A/N: This was something that happened before Brago ran away from Humanville in the first story.)
The brunette giggled a bit at the scene. She thought it was cute. "Okay lets see here." she checked the small tag on the box that says Zeno and Dufort. She looked at the shelves up ahead and began searching for the right one. She did, but it was a bit surprising to her. The shelf she found has a small sign that says "Zeno and Dufort" the shelf was covered all over in dust and there were a few cobwebs in it. It also had a bit of scary appearance. "Oh, well I guess I'll get the dust cleaner and clean this up." Koko placed the box inside the shelf and held out towards the closet with cleaning supplies.
What she didn't notice was that there was a bit of mischief going on the other side of the shelves.
"Ha, ha, ha, HA, ha, ha, it'll take them forever to sort these out!" Zeno snickered as he was messing around with the sorting shelves, taking stuff out and putting them into different shelves. "This is hers and now it's yours, this his and now its hers, and this is yours and now it's mine!"
Dufort was opening up random packages, scourging for any other items that they can find suitable for their plans.
"And now only one thing left." Zeno stood a few feet from the shelves and began throwing in a bunch of junk mail. "Jury duty, jury duty, jury duty, jury duty, blackmail, pink slip, long way, eviction notice, jury duty!" he went through loads of junk mail until all that was left was a small package. "What's this?" he easily tore it open and his eyes widen in surprise. In his hands was a Kingdom Heart 2 game for the PS2. "I always wanted this!" he said out loud at Dufort. "Oh well, finders keepers, losers weepers."
"And how are we gonna pay for that?" his companion asked, still looking through a bunch of random packages as well.
"I already made us some money,"
"How?"
"Selling some of our stuff on ebay,"
"Like what?"
"Just that old mattress we didn't need, my old bicycle, my old PS1, your hotdog making machine,"
There was silence between the two for a few seconds until. "So that's what happened to it." Dufort uttered under his breath. "Has our package come in yet?"
"I'll check," Zeno went over to the shelves Koko was at and spotted a box in their shelf. "Yes it has, now I don't have to worry about these annoying naive fools coming up to our home again to bother us," inside the package was a set of wrenches that Zeno needed for his plot. "Perfect, just what we need. Alright, lets get going before-"
"Now to clean up that shelf." they heard a feminine voice spoke out from the other side of the shelves. Both males eyes widen.
"Dufort, defensive maneuver 57-AC!" Zeno said to the blond.
"What?"
"HIDE!" the mamodo snapped!
Koko was humming a little tune to herself as she walked back to the sorting shelves, a dust cleaner in her hand. She was taken by surprise to find not only the box she set in the shelf was gone, but also a bunch of talking going on in the back. Koko went straight for the door and entered the back room.
No one was there. However, she spotted the Kingdom Hearts 2 game lying on the ground. "How did that get right there?" Koko picked the game off the floor and wondered just what the heck's going on here.
A small crack-like sound was heard... above her. She looked up.
Zeno was holding tight onto a overhead fan. But it was slowly falling apart and his fingers were slipping. "What the?" the brunette below said out loud.
"Oh, shit." the mamodo lost his grip of the overhead fan and fell directly onto the woman below him. A crash sound was heard as the two hit the ground, the mamodo kid on top of the human. But what was surprising, to them, was that their faces were really close that the tips of their noses were touching.
Zeno growled as he got off the brunette and snatched KH2 game out of her hands. "Give me that, ningen! Don't you know you're not suppose to take things that don't belong to you? What's the matter with you, you some kind of wild animal? HAH!" the kid snapped at the woman. "Come out, Dufort, it's just a chick."
The psychic human came out of his hiding place and went over to stand by his mamodo companion. "Aren't you the mamodo I heard of that lives in the mountains just south of town?" Koko asked, pointing a curious finger at Zeno.
"So what if I am?" the lightning creature asked.
CRACK! SNAP!
The over head fell completely off the ceiling and was about to crush Koko. Reacting quickly as he could, Zeno grabbed the woman by the back of her collar and pulled her out fo the way. "Now why did I just do that?" he asked himself.
"Koko, what's going on in there?" Gummi shouted. Footsteps were heard heading towards the door into the back room.
"Crap! Dufort, defensive maneuver 498-XO!"
"What?"
"RUN!"
Dufort and Zeno took off running to the back door, but Dufort was so freaked out that he had a hard time trying to grasp hold of the doorknob. "Oh, will you just go!" the mamodo shouted and eventually Dufort got in opened and the guys took off running and screaming like a couple of lunatics.
(A/N: OOC, I know people. You don't have to tell me.)
"Koko, what happened? Are you okay?" the mamodo known as Gummi opened the door and ran in to help Koko up.
"I'm okay, Gummi. But those guys... they saved me."
"What guys?"
"I... I really," Koko really doesn't know what to say. 'That boy, the one with the white hair. If he's that one mamodo who hates the holidays so much, and if he really is a cold-hearted child, then why did he save me? Isn't he suppose to be bad, or does he have something good inside? What's going on?' Koko turned to face her fellow employee. "I really... don't know."
The brunette looked down and saw that those two had left some money behind. Probably enough to purchase the KH2 game they took with them.
Zeno and Dufort stopped suddenly to take a breather, but I'm positive that they're somewhere safe-OW! WHAT WAS THAT FOR!
"You're gonna reveal our location! And I thought I told you to stop that?" Zeno snapped right after he threw a snowball in my face.
It's my job! Sheesh! What's everyone's problem with me narrating?
"I said quiet!" Zeno yelled and suddenly threw one of the wrenches he got right at my forehead.
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
"That oughta shut him up for a while. Come Dufort, lets go home. We've got what we came for, and personally, I want to play my new game."
"Can we stop for some hotdogs first?"
"NO!"
Ow, my poor head. (Rubs forehead) I'm gonna be feeling that in the morning. Does anyone have some ice I can barrow?
To Be Continued...
