Chapter 4

Megaminds decided that sleep was a good Idea and get a fresh start in the morning. He slept in his large rolling chair. It was an extreme looking office chair but one he could kind of curl up In. Minion slept in his suit. I was settled on to the table In a nest of blankets Inside Minion robotic arms once powered down they wouldn't move and there for I wouldn't roll off the table.

"Good night Viv." said Minion.

"Night Minion, night Megamind." I said.

"Hum." he said already drifting off.

I settled in the ball at least it was warm and soon I was out.

The next morning I was up early a bit before Minion who was rather surprised to see that. He made a shush motion and pointed towards Megamind. He stood up and picked up the ball headed out of the room towards the small but nicely equipped kitchen area. He set me down and started to make some coffee. In a short half hour the brain bots announced Ms. Richie's arrival and Megamind finally getting up.

"HI Minion." she said making her way across the large area.

"Morning Ms. Richie." He said holding out the coffee mug for her she took it and spotted me.

"Minion who is your friend?" She asked peering at the ball.

He turned and started "oh my manners. Viv this Is Ms. Richie. Ms. Richie this Is Vivian."

She smiled taking a drink of coffee.

I said "hello."

She started to cough on her coffee she didn't expect me to talk.

"Oh sorry." I said sucking in my lower lip.

She looked at me in shock. "You can talk! I thought only he could." she looked at Minion.

"It's a long story Ms. Richie." Said Minion patting her on the back.

"Are you ok I asked?"

She had managed to get over the coughing for the most part. That's when Megamind showed up seeing Roxanne red faced and teary eyed he wondered what happened.

"Roxanne are you ok?" he asked

She looked over to her boyfriend and nodded. "I breathed… when I should have swallowed."

"That's not a good way to drink coffee." he said simply. Making it over to the small counter area he saw me looking kind of guilty "aha she didn't expect you to talk did she."

"No." I said softly. "I didn't mean to scare her."

Minion handed her a paper towel which she accepted and coughed into a few more times then wiped her eyes. Minion handed a coffee mug to Megamind and the sugar bowl he then looked at me and gave me an O' well what can you do look.

Roxanne took a deep breath. "Where did you two find another talking fish." she asked like they had done something catastrophic

"Hey we didn't do this." said Megamind

"No Ms. Richie It's not like that." stated Minion

"Then what? I go on assignment for one day and you happen across another space fish." Roxanne said like she didn't believe them one bit. The boys looked at each other then me in hopes of getting them out of this mess.

"Well it's a funny story." I said

"I'm listening." she said putting a hand on her hip.

And In a short time she knew everything.

"So who is this Jareth?"

"That would be…. Me." Standing across the room was the tall fay. Blond hair sticking out all over he just happened to be dusting glitter off his arm. Everyone jumped Megamind who was armed drew his weapon and fired nothing happened.

"What the" Megamind looked at Minion In "A you have to be kidding me" kind of way.

"It's charged I swear." said Minion.

"That won't work on me blue man." said Jareth.

Megamind didn't like that at all.

"So." said Jareth. "Where is my petit Poisson?"

He spotted me on the counter and with a flip of his wrist I was in his hand and he was peering at me through the glass. "How are you doing?" he said

"Jareth… put me down"

Roxanne looked at Megamind and mouthed petit Poisson. Megamind just shrugged "Now why should I do that I'm enjoying this little predicament you have gotten yourself into"

"I'm not. Will you change me back and let me go home now … please." I said

"Let me think about that." he said and started to flex his fingers.

"No please don't…" He slid the ball across his palm next thing I knew I was sliding towards the other arm across his chest to the other hand and then flipped me towards Roxanne who caught me He chuckled "I think I'll leave you like this a bit longer your far more manageable this way."

I was dizzy and was shaking in the ball. "I think I'm going to be sick." I said

"It's so nice to see you all again." and with a pop he was gone.

Minion took me out of the ball and started to run tap water over my back just in case I really was sick. "You ok?" he asked

"Body juggling really cool to watch… not fun if you're the ball" I said

"Wow" was what Roxanne said

Megamind said "yea you should have seen him yesterday"

"Why did he call you little fish?" she asked "He called you petit Poisson that means little fish In French"

"How did you know that" asked Megamind

"What?" She smirked "you mean there is something I know that you don't this is a first"

"Better" Minion asked me

I sighed "much actually" I thought for a minute "he has called me that I guess since I met him when I was fourteen Jareth calls all the lIstian's something. Mostly due to us being a huge pain in his backside. I never really thought about it beyond that"

"That's odd don't you think" said Roxanne
