-sitting on floor painting nails-
Light, What are you doing?
Painting my nails black.
Why?
I'm emo…
Since when?
A few minutes ago…My pet fish just disappeared…
Do you think a certain cat girl might have eaten it?
Well she did have the strangest looking sushi for lunch today…
… Anyway, tell us a little about this chapter!
Well I'm continuing the scavenger hunt idea, and yeah…
Will it be funny?
Maybe…
-sighs, walks up, and puts funnel in my mouth- RIKU, WHERE'S THE PIXIE STIX?
-big bag of pixie stix comes flying toward her-
Thanks! –pours a bunch of pixie stix into the funnel- Now will the chapter be funny?

There we go!
CHAPTER TIME! –dances-
Chapter 7
"How are we supposed to find a monkey?" Neki asked Riku as she tagged along behind him. Riku stopped and turned around to face her.
"There probably isn't a monkey…"
Neki looked on the verge of tears, "No monkey?"
Riku shook his head in response and started walking again, "No monkey."
"Ya know, I could dress up like a monkey!" Neki bounced back. Riku chuckled at the notion.
"You would make a better monkey then Reni or Kairi, but that probably won't work," he checked the list once more, and picked up two coconuts that had conveniently fell as they neared it.
"Well that's—HEY!" Neki pouted, "That was rude and uncalled for."
"You asked for it. Go pick up those arm looking sticks," he ordered and pointed towards a pile of sticks that Reni used to shut up Neki's rants of pyro-ness.
"No!! The arm kinds burn the best!" Neki wailed and flung herself on top of the pile, crushing most of the twigs in the process. Unluckily for her, the arm sticks were unharmed, and she brought them reluctantly to Riku. Riku, obviously ignoring the comment Neki had made, took them and put them into his backpack.
"Did you always have that with you?" Neki wondered. Riku glanced at his back.
"I don't know…"
"PLOT HOLE!"
"I'm not going to ask."
Neki bounded up from behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck so she could see the list, "What do we have left?"
"Lots, now leggo I can't see where I'm go—ING!"
"EEK!"
The two fell to the ground crudely, Neki underneath Riku, whose arms were on either side of her. Neki blushed at the sight of him leering over her, his hair delicately falling over his face.
"I…uh…tripped over…something…" Riku sputtered as he got off her. Neki raised her head, slightly bummed, to see if that was really the case. Sure enough there was something there.
A banana peel.
"Damn random things popping out of nowhere…" Neki muttered angrily. Her thoughts shifted as her brain processed the information completely, "Monkey!"
"I highly doubt I tripped over a monkey, Neki," Riku looked at her doubtfully. Neki shook her head furiously.
"NO! Monkeys eat bananas!" Riku rolled his cyan eyes.
"So do chimps and gorillas."
"I WANNA CHIMPY!"
"No Neki you cannot have a chimpanzee."
"AWW!!!" Neki whined, "That's not fair! You have a chimpy!"
"I don't have a…Now that's rude," Riku glared at her and continued on his way down the beach. Neki growled.
"I meant Beaver!"
"I'm sure you did."
"I DID!"
"I believe you."
"No you don't!"
"Yes I do."
"NO YOU DON'T!"
"Yes. I. Do." Riku turned quickly on his toes to face her, "And that's final."
Neki stared at him, "Wow…That's funny, 'cause I really meant Sora."
"Doesn't that mean you have a chimpanzee?"
Neki pondered this for a moment.
"…"
Wait for it.
"…"
Waaaiiit for it…
"Neki?"
Here it comes...!
"I HAVE A CHIMPY!" Neki said and glomped Riku happily, "A chimpy that is all mine!" She grinned cheekily at him.
"Yes, and I have three monkeys," Riku said sarcastically. This unfortunately, went right over Neki's head.
"Really?" I want to meet them!"
Oh, poor Riku.
-----
Sora glanced over at Reni, "Did you hear that?" Reni, who was currently trying to get the big paopu off the big paopu shaped tree, shrugged.
I'm not sure if it's paopu shaped or star shaped…
How do you not remember?
I haven't played the game in a while, and the cut scenes don't include in game play.
Oh yeah…Why don't you just play the game?
Some is borrowing it.
Man you have convenient excuses…
"No, I didn't. What did you hear?"
"It sounded like someone smashing their head on a tree or something…"
Kairi looked up from her spot on the sand, looking for brown seashells, "That's strange…Who would hit their head against something on purpose?"
"Well I never said it was on purpose," Sora retorted.
But it was…
"True…Tidus and Wakka could be getting beat up by your sister again…" Reni inputted, coming back with the fruit of her labor.
Nooo their nooot…
"Yeah, but that was because Tidus said that she was gross, and Wakka just happened to simply agree," Sora countered, "What could they have… Never mind…"
Well that's true…
"Yeah, and you were lucky—
And amazingly smart enough…
—to keep your mouth shut."
"Well "what if's" aren't going to help us here," Kairi noted, "So let's just forget about it. Alright?"
Sora and Reni exchanged glances before nodding, "Whatever," they said in unison.
-----
"Riku! Guess what I just found!" Riku looked up from the list to see Neki standing before him with her hands behind her back.
"I give up."
Neki stuck her tongue out at him, "You didn't even guess!" Riku sighed and rolled his eyes.
"A monkey."
"Awww…I was hoping you would get it wrong…" Riku froze.
"What?"
Freeing her hands from behind her back, Neki showed him the…baby monkey…she had found, "I named her WamWam!" Riku stared openly at it.
"That's a chimp."
"OH MY GOD! … Is it my chimp?"
Riku gawked at her, "Are you serious?" When Neki nodded…Riku went off to go smash his head against the coconut tree again.
-----
Reni looked up, "Okay Sora I heard it this time…" Sora was sitting on top of one of the palm trees searching for the monkey. Reni was helping Beaver find brown seashells. She was having difficulties…
"See? I told you! I wish I knew what's going on…?"
So you wish it, so it shall be…Or something like that.
"SORA, SORA, SORA, SORA, SORA!!!" A voice screamed from the entrance to the secluded strip of the island.
"Neki?" Reni, Sora, and Kairi wondered aloud at the same time as they watched her fly towards them at top speed.
"SORA IT'S HORRIBLE!!!" she cried as she hugged the younger boy around the middle, "Riku won't wake up!" She hiccupped and sat up, "I don't know what's wrong! He walked over to a coconut tree and I turned around to play with WamWam—"
"WamWam?" Sora interrupted. It was then that they all noticed the chimpanzee clinging helplessly to the back of Neki's back and red striped tank top.
"My chimpy!" Neki squealed and continued with her story, "So I turned around to play with WamWam and the next thing I know, Riku is lying on the ground with a big dent in his head!"
"So Riku was the noise we heard!" Reni said as she placed her fist into her open palm, like she had just figured out the last piece to a mystery.
"Yes," Neki stressed, "Can we go wake him up now?!" Sora was the first up, followed by Neki, Reni, and finally Kairi.
The four ran to save poor little Riku, who was having a wonderful, Neki strange-ness free dream.
DREAM TIME!
Riku stood in clothes similar to Romeo's from Romeo and Juliet. He stood on a balcony overlooking the sea, the waves crashing onto the rocks below being the only sound. Behind him though, a party was commencing. He closed his eyes and listened to the waves until a soft, gentle voice brought him out of him daze.
"My Lord?" the voice repeated. Riku turned to see that it was none other than Neki, looking simply radiant in a Juliet style dress. He walked over to her and bowed, the music from the ballroom finally reaching his ears.
"Yes?" he asked simply, not knowing how to address her.
"Would you care to have the last dance with me My Lord?" she asked as she curtsied. A smile lit his face and he gave her his hand and a nod.
"I would love to share the last dance of this beautiful night with you," she took his hand and followed him out onto the ballroom dance floor. Placing his free hand on her waist, he twirled her around the room with grace he didn't know he, nor she, had.
When the song ended, she curtsied again, "Thank you My Lord, for the wonderful dance." He smiled, and bowed again.
"It was my pleasure My Lady." She giggled and clasped his hand in her.
"No, the pleasure will be yours later. Save this pleasure to be ours." He ignored the latter comment and tried to decipher the first. When he had done so, he could feel his face heat up at the innuendo.
Coughing nervously he replied, "I-I'm sure…" She laughed lightly again, sending shiver's down his spine.
"Riku, wake up," she whispered. Suddenly she sounded if she would cry, "Please wake up."
-----
"Wha—"
"Riku!" a voice cried and he felt a body fly on top of his chest. He also saw blonde hair. Getting himself into a sitting position, he saw that it was Neki, and that he was surrounded by Reni, Sora, Kairi, Wakka, Selphie, Tidus and…WamWam…
"Neki, I'm fine…" he said and tried to get her to release her death grip on his leg," Really."
"Really, really?" she sniffed and sat up, unconsciously holding his hand.
"Yeah," he said and help her stand up with him, "Come on, it's Sora's birthday, let's ditch this stupid scavenger hunt and go chow down on some cake or something!" he called to the group. Sora hooted and tore down the beach to reach his boat, Reni not far behind. Kairi ran after them with Wakka, Tidus, and Selphie following behind.
Riku and Neki walked slowly, "Really rea—" she started.
However she was cut off by the kiss placed upon her beet red cheeks.
"What?" she asked rather confused. Glancing at him, she saw that he was rather red too, "Riku…" she began.
He looked at her somber expression with some hope for a normal conversation, "Yeah?"
"Are you sick?"
To the coconut tree!
End!
-laughing- That was awesome!
I liked the dream sequence!
I'm sure you did ya' perve! –giggles-
I liked the kiss part!
Me too!
I liked the end.
I could take that one of two ways, and I'm tempted to take it the wrong way as an excuse to hurt you.
Since when have you needed an excuse?
Good point. –takes out metal bat- Come 'ere Sora!
Oh crap…AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! –runs off-
-chases after him-
That's all for now folks! Ya'll come back again real soon!
-stops- I WANTED TO SAY THAT!!!
But that's not fair! You have a better drawl than me!
That's because your drawl is non-existent.
I HAVE A DRAWL! –death glare at Riku-
S'all fer now folks! Ya'll come back now ya'her!
SHUT UP!!! –chases me with stale French bread-
