And here it is! Chapter elven! Sorry I didn't put it up sooner. But with the moving and the procrastinating and all... Anyways, enjoy!
'I don't get it. When I talk to Fëanáro and his friends, Cosmo and the others don't understand me. And when I talk to Cosmo, Fëanáro can't understand me. I just don't get it. What's going on?' Xanna asked herself as she sat on a dead tree stump; away from everyone else who were just sitting on the ground staring at each other. 'I don't know. This is the first time we've met the Alliance so I just don't know.'
'I'm gonna try to get them to talk to each other.' Xanna got off of the stump and walked over to everyone. "Kadgaa, could you try talking to, Mokoki, please?" Kadgaa didn't say anything. Fëanáro lightly elbowed him; Kadgaa folded his arms over his chest. "I'm not talking to anymore filthy Horde." He said, saying 'Filthy Horde' as if it was the worst swear that there was like he had been doing since Xanna awoke from the cocoon. Fëanáro rolled his eyes. "I'll do it, Xanna." He smiled. Xanna went a little weak in the knees from hearing him say her name and she mentally sighed a dreamy sigh. Ixxy shook her head and smacked Xanna. 'Ow! What the hell?!'
'Stop day dreaming and get them to talk to each other!' Xanna glared at Ixxy for a second but quickly returned her attention to Fëanáro. "Thank you, Fëanáro" The handsome night elf smiled some more. "No problem." Xanna looked away so she wouldn't go weak in the knees again; Fëanáro frowned a little but remembered that he was suppose to try to talk to her Horde friends. He cleared his throat and looked at Mokoki. "Hello. How are you today?" Xanna looked at Mokoki to see what would happen. "What did he just call my mother?!" Mokoki jumped to his feet and tried to tackle Fëanáro. "Ah! What'd I say?!" Fëanáro shouted and scooted away from Mokoki. "I don't know!" Xanna turned to Mokoki who had to be held back by Akazil and Gishezpak. "What did you hear him say, Mokoki?"
"He called my mother a fat, stupid, ugly ass man cow!"
"No he didn't! He was saying hi and asking how you were!"
"My ass he did!" Mokoki yelled and summoned a fire totem. "Ah!" Xanna pulled a dead tree branch out of nowhere and smashed it back into the ground. "Mokoki, calm down!" Gishezpak yelled at his friend. 'Wait! I have an idea!'
'Oh, now you come up with an idea? You know, after I've been rescued from the spiders.'
'Shut up and listen.'
'Fine.' Xanna mentally folded her arms over her chest. 'What's your idea?'
'Get the 'stud' to talk to the sack of beef again but listen to it as if you were talking to the fairy.'
'Um… Okay?' Xanna looked at Fëanáro. "Fëanáro, could you say that again?"
"Why?! So, this cow can kill him?! I knew it! You do wanna kill us! Horde scum!" Kadgaa accused. "No. This is another test. I'm not gonna let, Mokoki kill any of you. Now, Fëanáro, just please say that one more time."
"No!" Kadgaa protested against this so called 'test'. "Okay." Fëanáro said; he looked at Mokoki and cleared his throat again. 'Now listen to him as if you were talking to the fairy.' Xanna mentally nodded and pretended to be listening to Cosmo. "Your mother is a fat, stupid, ugly ass man cow." Fëanáro said. "See?! He said it again!" Mokoki tried to get free from Akazil's and Gishezpak's grasp so he could beat up Fëanáro but failed. "Let me go!" He continued his struggle to get free; Xanna hit him on the head with the dead tree branch, knocking him out cold. "…Damn." Everyone said. Akazil let go of Mokoki, leaving Gishezpak to drop to the ground with the four hundred and something pound tauren. "Xanna, what's going on? Why is that night elf calling Mokoki's mother a man cow?"
"I…I don't know. I need to go think about this some more." Xanna turned away from Akazil and went to go sit on the dead tree stump. "Help…me…" Gishezpak said as she walked away; he was still being crushed by Mokoki. "Oh, oops. Sorry, Gizzy." Akazil walked over to Gishezpak, who was slowly losing consciousness.
'I don't get it. Why would the guys hear Fëanáro say that? I mean, he's a nice guy. Even if they could understand each other, he wouldn't say that.' Xanna looked at Fëanáro; he was trying to help Akazil get Mokoki off of Gishezpak, but, Kadgaa pulled him away and said not to help filthy Horde. 'He's too nice to say something like that.'
'You don't know if he's nice. He could be acting.'
'He is not acting.'
'Whatever. Justcheck the book. Maybe there's something about talking to each other in there.' Ixxy said as she watched Akazil and Makaza trying to pick Mokoki up off of Gishezpak; they weren't doing so well. Xanna pulled out the library book and began to look for something about how the Alliance speak. She looked and looked and looked but couldn't find anything. 'I can't find anything about how they speak.' Ixxy looked away from everyone trying to pick Mokoki up and looked at the book; she couldn't find anything either. 'Guess the people who wrote this book decided to not interview an Alliance and write about how they talk. It was probably because they would've been killed…or killed the person they were interviewing…' Xanna looked back at the others; they were still failing at picking up Mokoki. 'How come they can't understand each other but I can?'
'Maybe it's because you're half night elf.' Ixxy said as she watched Ezekiel get crushed by Mokoki's left arm. "B-boss! I can't breathe!"
"Yes you can. You're just breathing beef sweat." Makaza said as Ezekiel tried to squirm his way out; after a minute, he stopped squirming. '…I don't think he's breathing anymore.'
'We'll focus on that later. Right now, we need to focus on why they can't talk to each other.' Ixxy rolled her eyes. 'If you want them to talk to each other so much then teach them how to talk to each other.' Xanna gasped. 'Ixxy! You're a genius!'
'I know.' She said, not paying attention to Xanna, who had run up to her and gave her a kiss on the cheek. 'Ah! It burns!'
After getting Mokoki off of Gishezpak and Ezekiel, Xanna had made everyone sit down next to each other; as if they were a classroom. Xanna looked to her Horde friends. "Alright, you guys." She said and pulled a chalkboard, some sort of teaching stick, and a piece of chalk out of nowhere. "Here's the game plan." She said and began to write something on the board. Everyone tilted their heads, except for Cosmo; they were probably thinking about where those things came from. But Cosmo was wiping a tear from his eye, obviously proud that Xanna was able to pull random things out of nowhere.
Once Xanna was done writing 'Language Class 101' on the chalkboard, she turned back to her Horde friends. "I'm gonna teach you guys how to speak to the Alliance." She turned to her Alliance friends. "And I'm gonna teach you guys how to speak to the Horde." Xanna looked at her 'class'. 'Don't know how, but I'm gonna do it.' She thought. Xanna pointed her teaching stick to Kadgaa, she pressed it to his nose. "Kadgaa, I want you to say 'Your mother is a fat, stupid, ugly ass man cow' to Mokoki."
"Why?" He said as he looked at the stick on his nose. "Because" Xanna said, pulling the stick away from Kadgaa's nose, putting it behind her back and then walking like she was a sergeant. "that's what Mokoki heard Fëanáro say. So, if you say that, maybe he'll hear you say what Fëanáro was actually saying." Kadgaa folded his arms over his chest and rolled his eyes. "This is just another idea to try and k-Ow!" He yelled because Fëanáro had elbowed his side very hard, then he began to glare at him. "I refuse to speak to the filthy Horde. It goes against my morals."
"Then why are you talking to me?"
"Because my best friend is in love with you for some very strange reason. And until I can convince him to fall in love with someone from the Alliance, I will be forced to talk to you. But only you! I will not talk to your filthy Horde friends!" Kadgaa pointed a finger to Xanna's group. They all raised an eyebrow. "What'd ya think he's saying?" Akazil whispered to Cosmo. "I don't know. But he's yelling at pointing at me…" Cosmo gasped. "He must be jealous of my outfit!"
"I am not in love with her!" Fëanáro yelled at his friend, throwing his arms in the air. Kadgaa just kept his arms over his chest and stared at a dead tree instead of looking at him. "Of course you're not." He said. Fëanáro brought his arms back to his sides and made fists, glaring at his friend. "Could one of you guys just say that, please?" Xanna said, ignoring Cosmo talking about Kadgaa being jealous of his outfit. Kadgaa looked at Fëanáro through the corner of his eye, giving him a 'I'm not doing it and that's final' look. "I'll do it." A tiny voice that came from the far right of the group said. Kadgaa, Fëanáro, Sonya and Xanna turned their heads to that direction. "You will?" They all asked, Sonya nodded. "Mmhmm. I've always wanted to know how to speak to the Horde."
"Fantastic! We now have our test subject." Xanna said and did the sergeant walk toward Mokoki; she pointed the teaching stick at him. "Sonya, please say 'Your mother is a fat, stupid, ugly ass man cow' to my friend."
"Okay." Sonya looked at Mokoki and gulped. "Um…You're mother is a fat, stupid, ugly man cow." She looked at Xanna. "Did I say it right?"
'Well, she left out the ass part, but other than that, I think she did pretty good…for a human, I mean.' Xanna ignored Ixxy and looked at Mokoki. "What did you hear her say?"
"Hello. How are you doing today? Why would she ask that when the night elf was making insults about my mother earlier?"
'Yes! It worked! Ixxy you're such a genius!'
'I know but that doesn't mean you can kiss me again!' Ixxy said and hid behind a shield she pulled out of nowhere. Xanna ignored her and continued to cheer. After she was done, she turned to Mokoki. "Mokoki, say what Sonya said to you to him." Xanna pointed the teaching stick to Fëanáro's nose. 'What's with you and pointing that thing at people's noses?'
'Shush! I'm teaching.'
"Okay?" Mokoki turned to Fëanáro. "Hello. How are you doing today?" Xanna looked at Fëanáro to see what would happen; he was slowly lifting his hands up to feel his ears. "What did you hear him say?"
"He said I have abnormally large ears…" He turned to Kadgaa. "They aren't that big, are they?"
"Um… Well… They're not as big as your sister's if that's what you're asking." Fëanáro looked like he was going to cry and Sophie put her hands on her hips. "Our ears are not abnormally large! They are normal sized for us elves!" Xanna raised an eyebrow. "Okay…" She turned away for a second to feel her ears. 'They are kinda big…'
'Stop being self conscious about something as retarded as the size of your ears and get back to teaching.' Xanna mentally nodded and did what Ixxy said. And Ixxy was thinking of something evil. 'Heh heh heh. Another thing to make fun of.' She rubbed her hands together, smiled evilly and quietly laughed evilly. Xanna turned to Mokoki. "Say 'You have big ears'." Mokoki sighed and turned to Fëanáro. "You have big ears." Xanna turned to Fëanáro. "Why is he asking me how I am when he just insulted my ears?"
'This is gonna be a long day…'
Xanna was sitting on the ground, one hand over her face. "Okay, Cosmo, how do you say 'Your hair is lovely and you have fantastic shoes'?" Cosmo sat up straight and cleared his throat. Xanna pretended to listen to him like she was talking to one of the Alliance. "Your hair is lovely and you have fantastic shoes. And your outfit is just to die for!" Cosmo told Sophie; she giggled. Xanna lifted her head up out of her hand. 'He said it right! And not only did he say that, he tossed in an outfit compliment!'
"How can 'You're a fat, ugly ass bitch with fungus on your toes' mean that?" Mokoki asked Cosmo; he shrugged. Xanna turned to Sophie. "How do you say 'Thank you'?" Xanna asked and immediately pretended to listen to a Horde person. "Thank you." Sophie said. 'Yes!' Xanna cheered again. She began to do a victory dance in her mind. Sophie smiled because she had said it right. Her friends looked at her. 'How can 'You're a tomato head' mean that?' They all thought. They stopped thinking when something on Fëanáro's person began to ring. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a blue cell phone and looked at the caller I.D. "I'll be right back." He told Xanna and walked away. Xanna looked at everyone else. "Guess class is over." After she said that, everyone plopped over onto the ground. "Finally; my tail is killin' me." Mokoki and Kadgaa said simultaneously. Fëanáro came back and walked up to Sophie. "That was her. She wants us to come back home for dinner." Xanna heard him whisper. Cosmo should've heard it too but he was busy trying to get Naraxis to stop flirting with Mittens. "Leave her alone! She's not interested!" Naraxis ignored Cosmo and continued his flirting. "That is just so gross."
"Naraxis! Stop flirting with that thing and get over here!" Kadgaa commanded his pet. "And you come over here, Mittens." Mittens immediately walked to Cosmo, and Naraxis followed Mittens. "Naraxis!" Kadgaa shouted at his pet; he ignored him and began to flirt with Mittens again. She hid behind Cosmo, he followed, then she hid on Cosmo's front side, he still followed. After that, Mittens, Naraxis and Kadgaa ran in circles around Cosmo. "Hey, guys! Cut it out! I'm getting dizzy!" Fëanáro rolled his eyes, then grabbed Kadgaa by his collar and grabbed Naraxis by one of his front legs. "C'mon guys. We gotta go."
"Thank God." Kadgaa mumbled as he wiped dust off of his shirt. Fëanáro gave him a blank look while he wasn't looking, then he was about to put Naraxis back on the ground because he was squirming and trying to bite him. "Don't! If you do that, he'll try to flirt with that elf's cat." Kadgaa whispered to his friend, pointing his left index finger at Cosmo behind his right hand. "…Whatever. Let's just get goin'." Fëanáro said and handed the squirming spider to Kadgaa. "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't get your ears in a bunch." The draenei waved his free hand passively. Fëanáro slowly reached a hand to touch his ear again; Sophie walked over and put it back to his side. "Meat head." She told Kadgaa. Sonya giggled. "You're just jealous because I'm off the market." Kadgaa stuck his tongue out, Sophie rolled her eyes. "Yeah, that's it, Kadgaa."
"Will you two stop bickering so we can get goin'?" Fëanáro asked; Sophie and Kadgaa shut their mouths. "That's better." He said and turned to face the road. He gasped when he realized he hadn't said goodbye to Xanna and her friends. Fëanáro turned around and ran straight to Xanna; he picked up her hands and held them in his, she blushed a little and stared at her hands. She didn't even realized that the other guys were growling. "Xanna…" He took his hands away from her and took something off of his right ring finger; he placed it on Xanna's right ring finger. "I want you to have that in case we never meet again." Xanna looked up at him. "Never meet again?" She said with a frown. "Well, yeah. I gotta go to Stormwind and you have to continue your road trip with your friends-"
"You're going to Stormwind?" Fëanáro nodded. "Yeah. I got this thing to do and-"
"That's cool. We're going to Stormwind too."
"WHAT?!" Everyone else shouted. "Uh…oops…"
'Idiot.'
"I knew it!" Kadgaa yelled. "She does wanna go on a killing spree! I said let's take her to the guards but you said nooooo let's not take her to the guards! This is just proof that you ARE in love with her!"
"I am not!" Fëanáro yelled back at his friend with a little blush going across his face. "You are too! I can see it all over your face!" Kadgaa pointed an accusing finger at Fëanáro, then he put both of his hands over his mouth, trying not to throw up. "That's just nasty, man." Xanna opened her mouth in shock and placed her hands on her hips, she was about to say something when she was pulled aside by Makaza. "Um… Xanna? Baby?" Xanna stopped glaring at Kadgaa when Makaza had said that. "Um, uh… Why are you taking us to Stormwind? Are you trying to kill us? I can see why you would want to kill Dethiam, but there's no need to kill the rest of us… Okay, maybe Mokoki and Akazil, but no reason to kill anyone else besides them." Xanna just raised an eyebrow at Makaza. "Is this about the way I've been acting lately? 'Cause if it is, you could've told me. There was no need to drag us all out here and try to kill me." Makaza continued with saying things about how there was no reason to kill him and how he would change his ways to be a better boyfriend. While he was saying that, the others were talking and Kadgaa was still yelling at Fëanáro. "What is wrong with you, dude?! How can you be in love with a blood elf?!"
"I am not in love with her!"
Xanna closed her eyes and put her left hand on her forehead. 'Too many voices. Make them stop.' She thought. Everyone continued to talk; Kadgaa was saying things about how Fëanáro should meet a nice night elf girl to fall in love with; Sophie and Sonya were talking about if Xanna would like to go to a beauty salon; Mokoki was telling Gishezpak that even though Xanna was trying to kill them, she was still hot; Makaza was still saying how he'll be a better boyfriend; Cosmo kept asking questions about why Xanna would take them to Stormwind and if she was feeling ill; and Akazil didn't say anything. And, of course, there's Ixxy. 'Ha! I knew they would think you were trying to kill them! Man, this is just hilarious. I knew that today would be a good day. After a couple of bad weeks always comes a good day.' Xanna ignored Ixxy, shut her eyes tighter and put both of her hands on her ears. "Shut up! Everyone just shut up!" Everyone stopped talking and yelling to look at her. She sighed in relief. "First thing; I am not trying to kill anyone!"
"Pfft." Kadgaa said, rolling his eyes and folding his arms over his chest. "Second thing; the library book I've had since we've started this trip" Xanna said as she pulled the book out of one of her bags. "is a book about the Alliance." She showed everyone the cover, mainly to her Horde friends because she had been with them the whole time, not the Alliance. "I read some of it and the Alliance sounded interesting and I wanted to meet one. I got to the part about Stormwind and it sounded cool and I thought it would be fun to go there. I didn't know how to tell you guys," She lifted her left hand up to Cosmo and the other Horde guys. "so I thought I would make it a road trip and things would just be…fun." Xanna put the book back in her bag. "And the third thing; does anyone hear noises that sound like an army of angry spiders wanting to chase us to get their spider king back or is that just me?" All of Xanna's friends raised an eyebrow at her, then turned around. "Oh… So, it wasn't just me…"
'…Great.'
Xanna and her friends stared at the army of angry spiders; they were all staring at Kadgaa and who he had 'captive'. Kadgaa's eyes slowly went to look down at his right, his pet didn't seem to be unhappy about this at all. In fact, he looked as happy as happy could be. "Ungrateful little-" He was mumbling but Fëanáro lightly smack his shoulder. "Let's get outa here!"
"Xan Xan, don't fa-" Cosmo was saying as he turned around to see if she had passed out; all he saw was a dust cloud shaped like Xanna. "Xan Xan?" Cosmo squinted his eyes to see if he could find her, she had run way ahead of the group. "Xan Xan! Wait up!"
"No! There is no way in hell that I'm being taken away by those damned spiders again!" She yelled back at her group. Cosmo was just speechless for a moment. "Well, c'mon! Let's do what she's doin' and get the hell outa here!" Mokoki yelled. Everyone nodded and then they all ran the way Xanna had.
Xanna was leaping over bushes, trees, stumps, dead children and everything else in Duskwood to get away from those spiders. 'Running, running, running. Not looking back. Just running, running, running!'
'Ditching, ditching, ditching. Forgetting Dethiam. Just ditching, ditching, ditching.'
Xanna ducked under a low tree branch as she ran. 'I'm sure someone grabbed her head.' Ixxy looked back to see if the group was catching up; they were. 'Nope. Think the sack of beef just decided to grab her again.'
"Let me go! I gotta fight those spiders!"
"Shut up!"
'Yep, he grabbed her again.'
Xanna looked back over her shoulder. 'Thank goodness they decided to run.'
'Look out!' Ixxy shouted. Xanna looked forward and hit her head on a low branch. 'Idiot. She watches enough horror movies to know not to look back while running, and yet, she does it!'
"Xanna!" Akazil, Makaza and Fëanáro shouted. Fëanáro began to run faster than everyone else and picked Xanna up. "C'mon, I know a shortcut to Elwynn Forest." He said quickly and went through some trees to his left. 'He's actually leading these guys to Stormwind?!' Kadgaa thought. He picked up Naraxis, who had decided to run with the group. "This is all your fault."
Fëanáro stopped in a nice and peaceful spot in Elwynn Forest. "I think we lost them." He panted. Everyone turned around, they didn't see any spiders; they all sighed in relief. Cosmo walked over to Fëanáro, who was setting Xanna on the ground. "Is she okay?"
"Think so. But she's got a pretty nasty bump on her head." Fëanáro said as he lightly pushed aside some of Xanna's hair. 'Ugh. Tell me about it. That knock to the head actually made my head hurt.' Ixxy rubbed her head as she talked to the emptiness in Xanna's mind. Cosmo lightly bit on one of his fingers when he saw the bump. "Let me see it." Gishezpak said. "Maybe I can heal it." He walked over to Xanna and saw the bump. "Ooh. That does look like a nasty bump. But, don't worry, it's a pretty easy fix." Cosmo stopped biting his finger and sighed in relief. Gishezpak put his right hand on Xanna's forehead and began to heal the bump; it only took a couple of minutes. "There, she's better."
"No she's not. I still sense pain in her head." Sophie said. Ixxy looked in the direction where she was standing. 'Is… Is she talking about me?'
"That's impossible because the bump is gone." Gishezpak motion his hand around Xanna's forehead. "See?"
"I know that she doesn't have a bump anymore, but there is something in her mind that is in pain." Ixxy's eyes widened. 'Holy shit! How can she tell I'm here?' She backed away to a dark corner of Xanna's mind and tried to hide the pain in her head. "I have no idea what you're talking about." Gishezpak said and stood up. "She's fine." Sophie made eye to eye contact with the troll. "Fine. Let her suffer." The two of them began to glare at each other. "Um? How 'bout we just try to wake her up and see if she's okay?" Makaza suggested. Sophie and Gishezpak stopped glaring and walked away from each other. "Sounds good to me." Cosmo said; he was about to shake her awake when his pink cell phone rang. He sighed, pulled it out of his pocket and looked at it. 'Oh muffins.' He swore mentally. He opened up his cell phone and began to talk to the person on the other line. "H-hello?"
:Cosmo! Where are you?! You're thirteen hours late for work! It was your vacation week! Not vacation week and thirteen hours!: Estivan yelled. "Um…" Cosmo tried to think of something; he thought of playing sick and faked a cough. "Sorry, Estivan, sir. I'm sick and couldn't come to work today." He faked another cough. "Think I might be sick all week. Sorry, sir."
:You better be sorry! Now who am I going to get to clean up after the fat guys in the steam room?!:
Cosmo smiled wickedly. "What about, Clarence, sir? I think he's been slacking off a bit lately. Last week when you told him to clean the hot springs, he did, but only after he used them for his hot spring party."
:What?!: The was a noise on the other end. :Clarence! You're cleaning up after the fat guys for this week! Cosmo is sick! And he told me about the little stunt with the hot springs so you'll only get half of your paycheck this week!: Cosmo heard on the other end. :But, sir-:
:No 'but's! Now, get to work!:
:Yes, sir.: Clarence said sadly. 'Heh heh. That's what he gets for taking my cookie at lunch. All though, it still was a pretty cool party… I miss the tree…' Cosmo heard another noise on the phone. :Sorry for putting you on hold, Cosmo. I hope you get better soon.: Cosmo coughed. "Me too, sir. Bye." Cosmo hung up his cell phone; everyone else was looking at him. "What? That was a semi-important call." Akazil shook his head. "Let's just wake her up."
"On it." Dethiam said and poured a giant bucket of water on Xanna. She didn't move. "Hmm…" Dethiam began to think of all sorts of ways to wake Xanna up. She tried some more water, kicking her, pulling on her ears, setting her on fire, she tried everything. "Damn, she's a heavy sleeper." Dethiam said. But she didn't give up. "I'm gonna get some worms and see if that'll wake her up."
"Why dontcha just get 'em from your arms and legs?" Makaza whispered to Mokoki. They laughed quietly, until Dethiam pulled a couple of daggers out and put them to their necks. "I heard that."
"How can you hear when your dead?" Makaza asked. "Nice." Mokoki said and they high fived each other. "Orc, you're about to be an only child and troll, you're about to lose your cow." Dethiam told Akazil and Gishezpak right before she tackled Mokoki and Makaza to the ground; they squealed like little girls. "Take this!" Dethiam yelled and began to punch them; Gishezpak got up to go help out his friends but Akazil stopped him. "Just let them work it out."
"Ow, my tail!" Mokoki shouted. "Ow, my eye!" Makaza shouted. "Um… Okay…"
While Dethiam was kicking butt, Akazil, Cosmo and Fëanáro tried to wake Xanna up. "C'mon, Xan Xan, you can't sleep all day."
'Yeah, you idiot! Wake up! Ow, head.' Ixxy grabbed her head; she still had a headache from the branch. She growled. 'Damn it, I hate you! I bet you would wake up if someone said there was a-what the hell is that?' Ixxy asked herself when the dream Xanna was having popped up. The dream was about her and Fëanáro having a picnic. Ixxy's eye began to twitch. 'Here we are…in Elwynn Forest…an Alliance place… And she's having a dream about some hot guy she just met?!' Ixxy pulled a bat out of nowhere and began to beat Xanna with it. 'Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!' She yelled, ignoring the major headache she still had. While she was beating Xanna, her dream began to skip forward a bit. This time it was about her and Fëanáro getting married. 'Oh, good God!' She smacked Xanna on the head with the bat.
"I do!" Xanna shouted after bolting up from her sleep. "You do what?" Cosmo asked. "Um… I do…not want Dethiam to put worms on me?" She said nervously. "Can't really do that now since you're awake." Dethiam said as she sat on top of Mokoki and Makaza. "Or…maybe I can." She smiled wickedly as she stared at Xanna. Cosmo pointed a finger at her. "No!" Dethiam rolled her eyes under her belts. "Whatever."
While Cosmo and Akazil glared at Dethiam, Fëanáro helped Xanna to her feet. "Thanks." She smiled. "Heh. No problem." They just smiled at each other for a moment, not even realizing that they were holding hands. "Soooooo, what now, Xanna?" Akazil said, getting up and standing next to Xanna, interrupting her moment with Fëanáro. Xanna gave him a little glare through the corner of her eye and let go of Fëanáro's hand. "Well, we were heading toward Stormwind, and Fëanáro here knows how to get there so…" Xanna gave Fëanáro such a sweet and innocent look, he felt like his face was on fire because of his blush. "Fëanáro, will you take us to Stormwind?" She asked as he stared at her beautiful yellow eyes. "Well, um, uh…" Xanna bat her eyelashes a couple of times. "Please?" She asked so sweetly; Fëanáro blushed a little more and started to do a goofy laugh. "Su-"
"Absolutely not!" Kadgaa shouted at them while Sophie was fixing the wounds Naraxis had given to him earlier. "There is no way in hell that I'm letting my best friend take a bunch of filthy Horde to Stormwind!" He yelled as he got up. "I can't even believe that I let him bring you here!"
"Dude, could I talk to you for a sec? You know, over here." Fëanáro said as he pulled Kadgaa off to the side. "Dude, what are you doing?!" Fëanáro did a whisper shout at his friend. "Me?! What are you doing?!" Kadgaa had pointed to himself then poked Fëanáro's chest. "Giving googly eyes to a Horde! What's wrong with you?! I don't care if you do that to Sonya because she's human! Thus, Alliance! But why are you flirting and giving googly eyes to some blood elf?!"
"We were not flirting or giving each other googly eyes! And I never give Sonya googly eyes!" Kadgaa folded his arms over his chest. "Look, that girl is nice. She and her friends won't kill anyone. Well, I'm not sure about the undead guy but the others won't! I mean, they haven't killed us have they?"
"Not yet. They wanna do it when we least expect it."
"Whatever. All she and her friends want to do is look around and that's it. After that, they'll leave. They won't kill anyone." Kadgaa sighed. "Okay, fine. Take them to Stormwind, but when people start asking who let the Horde in, I'm telling them it was you."
"Fine."
"Fine."
"Then I guess everything is fine then."
"Super fine."
"Fine as fine can be!"
"Fine!" Both of the boys stopped talking to each and stalked back to the others. "I'd love to take you there, Xanna." Fëanáro said as he looked at Kadgaa through the corner of his eye. Xanna faked a smile; it was hard to do a real one after hearing the two boys have a fight. "Thanks."
"But first, we need to get you and your friends some disguises."
"Disguises?" Xanna tilted her head. Fëanáro tried not to blush. "Yes, disguises. There are guards in front of Stormwind and I doubt they'll let you walk pass the gates, even if you mean no harm."
"Oh, okay. Where do we get these disguises?"
"Just follow me." Fëanáro said and began to head east. "Wait!" Sonya said. "I have to get these flowers back to my mom's store. Sophie, will you walk me there?"
"Of course, Sonya." Sonya smiled and grabbed Sophie's hand. "We'll see you all later." Sophie said and walked away with Sonya. Dethiam sighed in relief. "Thank Illidan. I wasn't sure if I was gonna be able to put up with that human girl. She reeked of cheery and perkiness." She said, still sitting on top of Mokoki and Makaza. Xanna placed her face in her right hand and shook her head. "I'll get them." Gishezpak said. "Thank you, Gizzy." Xanna said, her face still in her head.
After forcing Dethiam to get off of Mokoki and Makaza, everyone followed Fëanáro to wherever he was taking them. Xanna looked around and smelled the air as they walked. "This place is so beautiful. It reminds me of Eversong Forest. Beautiful, peaceful, and no-ah!" She shrieked and hopped into Fëanáro's arms. "What the hell is that?!" Xanna pointed at the monster. "Um… It appears to be a spider, Miss Xanna." Gishezpak answered. "I know what it is! I mean, what the hell is a spider doing in a forest?!"
"Didn't we just come from a spider infested forest?" Makaza asked. "I mean, what is a spider doing in a nice, happy, peaceful and alive forest?!"
"Being a spider?" Xanna glared at Makaza, not noticing that Akazil was glaring at Fëanáro for holding her. "Don't worry. It's a low level and it won't hurt us."
"What level is it?" Xanna asked. 'Six.' Ixxy said after looking up the spider in the book. 'And they call those Forest Spiders.'
"Six. And we call them Forest Spiders." Fëanáro answered. "Oh. Thanks."
"You're welcome." 'You're welcome.' Fëanáro and Ixxy said at the same time. "Uh… Did you say six?" Makaza asked. "Yes. It's only a level six and it won't-" Fëanáro was saying until the Forest Spider began to chase after Makaza. "Aaaaaaaah!!!!!"
"Run, boss, run!" Ezekiel yelled. Akazil sighed, shook his head and then chased after the spider. "Oh… It will hurt us." Fëanáro said. "Well, it'll hurt him, at least." Mokoki said. "It's trying to eat my legs!" Makaza shouted in the background. The spider was dragging him somewhere; Makaza made nail marks in the ground. "Shut your whinin'!" Akazil shouted at his brother and killed the spider with one hit of his sword. Makaza crawled out from under the dead spider, sat up and began to feel his legs. "Phew. They're all there." Akazil rolled his eyes. "C'mon, let's get goin'."
"Right." Fëanáro and Xanna said at the same time, then they realized that Fëanáro was still holding Xanna; both of them blushed. "Uh…" They both said. Kadgaa rolled his eyes at them. "Will you two stop making googly eyes at each other so we can go get your disguises?"
"We are not making googly eyes!" Fëanáro stated. "Mmhmm. Riiiight." Fëanáro looked at himself; he felt like dancing because he had such a beautiful girl in his arms. But he would have to do that some other time, put Xanna down and take her to get a disguise. He sighed and did as such. "C'mon, we need to go this way." He said, not looking at Xanna. She frowned a little because she didn't really want him to put her down. 'Will you stop awing over this boy and get on with this stupid trip, already?! And no more trying to seduce him, either!'
'Seduce?'
' 'Will you please take us to Stormwind, Fëanáro?' ' Ixxy said in a mocking voice, then she bat her eyelashes a couple times like Xanna had done. ' 'Please?' ' Ixxy stopped with the act and put her hands to her sides. 'Ring a bell?'
'That wasn't seducing. That was simply using my sexiness to get him to do something I wanted him to do.' Ixxy gave her a blank look. 'What? It was.' Ixxy rolled her eyes. 'Whatever. I know seducing when I see it.' This time Xanna rolled her eyes. 'And I know an annoying voice when I see it.' Xanna told Ixxy and began to follow Fëanáro again. Cosmo walked up to her, placed a hand on her shoulder and pulled her to the back of the group. "Xan Xan, will you please stop trying to seduce that night elf boy?"
'Told you. He should know what seducing is. He probably does it to guys all the time…and trees.'
"I wasn't-"
"I know that you're probably thinking that I want him all to myself, but you're wrong. He's not my type. I just don't want my little Xan Xan to get into trouble, okay?" He said, cupping both sides of Xanna's face into his hands. She smiled. "Let's just go get our disguises, silly."
"Alright, but I'm serious, Xan Xan. No more seducing that boy." He kissed the top of her head and grabbed one of her hands. "I'm already having enough trouble with Mittens." Xanna raised an eyebrow. Cosmo pointed to his left; Naraxis was trying to flirt with Mittens again. '…Gross.' Ixxy and Xanna thought. "Naraxis! What have I told you about flirting with that thing?!" Kadgaa yelled at his pet; he came over, picked him up and carried him away. "…Let's just go." Xanna said, not wanting to think about what a spider saw in a lioness.
After about an hour and a half of walking, Xanna and everyone finally reached where Fëanáro was taking them. It was a big tower. "Wait here. I'll be right back." Fëanáro whispered to Xanna. "Okay." She smiled. Cosmo cleared his throat, a way of saying 'Remember what I told you'. She gave him an irritated look without him noticing and watched Fëanáro walk to the tower. 'I wonder what's inside.'
'It's the Tower of Azora. It's filled with gnome mages.' Ixxy said, looking in the book. 'Wow. Gnomes. I hope I get to meet one while we're in Stormwind.'
"Wussup my gnomies?" Fëanáro said when he walked into the tower. "Yo, Fëan!" A gnome told him and low fived him. "Hey, Fëan!" Another one said and did the same. "Wussup, Fëan?" Another gnome said and dapped his knuckles. This gnome was short, had a goofy gnome smile and big dumbo ears like the rest, but he had blue eyes, blue spiked up hair; it kind of looked like a crown; and white skin. "Yo, Simon! How's my brainsta doin' today?"
"Not bad, not bad. How you doin' today?"
"Same. Hey, mind if I ask you a little favor?"
"What it is?"
"Remember that thing your dad made that turns people into the opposite of what they are?"
"Fëan, I keep telling you that you're not gonna get into the girl's locker room by using that. You act too much like a guy, even when you're a girl."
"No, not that one…but I might want it later. Anyways, I'm talking about the other one."
"You mean the-"
"Yes."
"But why?"
"You know, just for this thing."
"Dude, we've talked about this. The lions in the Barrens will eat you, even if you did look like an undead guy."
"Well…it's not really for me. It's for a friend."
"Even if it was for a friend, I'm not sure if my dad will let me barrow it."
"Please, Simon?" Simon sighed. "I'll go ask him. He's been in a good mood lately, so he might say yes."
"And if he says no?"
"Then you and your friend can't have it."
"But Simon-"
"Sorry, Fëan, but there's no convincing my dad to say yes once he says no…and vise versa." Simon shuddered. "I'll never forget that day…so many grannies…bunny hopping…"
"Just go talk to your dad."
"Right." Simon said, coming out of his flash back. "I'll be back in a minute." He hopped off of the stool he was on and walked to the next room. Fëanáro tapped his foot while he waited. "Hi, Fëan!" A female voice from behind him said. 'Shit.' He thought and turned around slowly. There was a female gnome smiling at him. She had big, blue, poofy pigtails, white skin, green eyes and a sweet face. But Fëanáro knew it was anything but. "Hi, Margret." Margret smiled and climbed onto the empty stool next to him. "Whatcha doin' here?"
"I was just talkin' to your brother."
"About whaaaaaaaaaaat?" Margret asked, scooting the stool a little closer. "About this thing."
"What thing?" She asked, playing with her hair and looking at him with a twinkle in her eye. "J-just this thing." Fëanáro said, backing away a little bit. 'Please hurry up, Simon.'
"Fëan! Over here!" Simon called from the other room. Fëanáro sighed in relief. "Gotta go Margey. Later!" He said quickly and ran to the other room. Margret pouted when he left.
Fëanáro slammed the door shut, leaned on it and sighed in relief again. "My dad wants to know why you want it." Simon told him. "Yes, why do you want this?" A male gnome asked Fëanáro and fidgeted with a little orb looking thing. The gnome was the same height as all of the other gnomes and had big ears like them, but he had blue eyes like Simon, white skin like him, white hair; his hairdo made him look like a mad scientist going bald; and he had a white, pointy mustache and a scruffy goatee. "I need it for a friend." Fëanáro said. "Why does your friend need it?"
"Um… Is there any way that I can get that thing without having to tell you why I need it?" Simon's father shook his head. Fëanáro sighed. "Can you guys keep a secret?"
"Blue guy! If you don't keep that thing away from my Mittens, I will break it's legs!" Cosmo shouted as he ran in circles, carrying Mittens on his back and running away from Naraxis. "Naraxis! Stop!" Kadgaa shouted as he chased after his pet. "And you have no right to order me around, you filthy Horde! My pet can do whatever the hell he wants!"
"If that's true, then why are you trying so hard to stop him from chasing Cosmo and Mittens?" Gishezpak asked. "You stay outa this!" Xanna rolled her eyes at the boys while she made a little flower crown. She added a couple more flowers and put it on her head. "Aww. You look cute wearing that, Xan Xan." Cosmo told her as he continued running. Mittens looked down at Naraxis and hissed; that didn't stop him from chasing her. He started to try and jump to her. "Go away!" Cosmo yelled at the spider. "Hey! Don't yell at my pet!"
"Well, if you were a good hunter, you're pet would listen to you and wouldn't need me to yell at it!"
"What's that suppose to mean?!"
"It means the way it sounds! Geez, I guess you are as dumb as you look!"
"You are so getting an ass kickin' when I get my hands on you! Filthy Horde!"
Xanna and the others sighed. 'Didn't he say that he didn't talk to the 'Filthy Horde'?'
'Yeah, but he's not talking to the fairy…he's yelling. Can't you tell the difference?' Xanna rolled her eyes and messed with her flower crown some more. She didn't mess with it for too long; it was because of Cosmo and Kadgaa, of course. "Will you two knock it off, already?! You're giving me a headache!" Xanna shouted at the two. 'Yeah! And they're making my headache worse!' Ixxy said and put an ice pack on her forehead. Xanna was gonna laugh at Ixxy and say that she kind of deserved this but her ear twitched. She turned around and smiled when she saw Fëanáro. Her smile went away when she saw two little people walking with him. 'What are those?' Ixxy sat up on the bed in Xanna's mind to see. 'Gnomes.' She said and laid back down. 'Wait. Gnomes?' Ixxy sat back up. 'Why did he bring gnomes?'
Fëanáro walked up to Xanna. "Uh… This is my friend, Simon and his dad, Henry." He leaned a little closer to her. "This was the only way I could get his dad to give me the disguises." He whispered. Xanna nodded. "Okay." She whispered back. Ixxy mentally threw the ice pack at her when Fëanáro backed away from her face area. 'Stop seducing!'
'I wasn't!' She yelled and threw the ice pack back. 'Ow! Bitch!' Xanna ignored Ixxy and watched Henry put on some glasses, making his already big eyes look even bigger. The little gnome blinked a few times. "So, you were telling the truth."
"Yep." Fëanáro said. "Can I have the orb no-hey, where'd he go?" Fëanáro looked for Henry and saw that he was standing next to Xanna, poking her leg. "Fascinating." He said. He repeated this to the others. "So fascinating." Cosmo giggled when Henry had poked the back of his knee. "Fascinating."
'Is that the only freakin' word he can say?!' Ixxy yelled, ice pack on her head again. Xanna mentally shrugged. "You're short." Xanna looked around to see who had said that then looked down. "Me?" She asked the other gnome known as 'Simon'. "Yeah, you."
"I wouldn't be talkin' too much about height there, short stop."
"I've seen plenty of blood elves raid Stormwind before, all of them were taller than you are."
'Damn, that's really sayin' somethin' if a GNOME is calling you short.' Ixxy laughed. Xanna's eye twitched a little, she felt like kicking the little gnome like a football. She took a deep breathe to calm herself down. "I never ate my greens, okay?" She leaned down a little and began to mess with Simon's ears. "That's probably your problem too. Or else you wouldn't have these ears." She lightly tugged on his right ear. "My word! She can speak Alliance?!" Henry said and walked back over to Xanna, leaving Cosmo laughing on the ground. He began to look at her and poke her again. "All of the other blood elves I've seen could never speak like we do." He looked at her eyes. "And they all had green eyes. Not yellow." Fëanáro raised an eyebrow. "So, the girl blood elves AND the guy blood elves have green eyes?" Henry nodded as he used his right hand to open Xanna's left eye and his other hand to hold up a little flash light he had been keeping in his pocket. "Amazing." He said and put away the flash light. "If that's true, then why does she have yellow eyes? And how can she speak to us?" Kadgaa asked. "Did she kill an Alliance and steal their eyes and vocal cords or something weird like that?"
"I'm half night elf, you jerk." Xanna said as Henry climbed on her back like a monkey and looked at the back of her neck; she folded her arms over her chest and looked away from him and glanced at Fëanáro through the corner of her eye, he looked speechless and that he was rethinking about their whole flirting thing. Kadgaa's eyes widened. "You're…you're…?"
"Half night elf." Xanna repeated. "You gonna sue me now?" Kadgaa was speechless. He didn't know if he should respect Xanna and let Fëanáro flirt with her all he wanted or if he should hate her and treat her like all of the other filthy Horde in the world and maybe hook Fëanáro up with some random girl at the soda parlor. "Absolutely amazing!" Henry said. Ixxy sighed and grabbed a bat. 'Let me take control.'
"Young lady-"
"Xanna."
"Pardon?"
"My name is, Xanna."
"Oh, yes. Xanna, did you know that you had a mark on the back of your neck?"
'Crazy, bald gnome say what?'
"A mark?" Xanna asked as everyone surrounded the back of her neck. 'Okay, feelin' a bit uncomfortable.'
'You're tellin' me.' Ixxy said as she stared at Henry's giant gnome eyes. "Yes, a mark."
"Let me see! Let me see!" Cosmo and Simon said. Cosmo picked Simon up and they joined the group and looked at the mark. "Xan Xan, you never told me that you got a tattoo." Henry looked at Cosmo. "Great Scott! You can speak Alliance too?"
"They all can. I taught them how." Xanna said. "You can teach?" Henry asked. "Yes. We can also read, breathe and talk at the same time." Dethiam said. "Amazing ain't it?"
"Quite." Henry nodded and looked back at the mark. Dethiam began to pull out a dagger but Mokoki stopped her. "What's the mark look like?" Xanna asked. "It looks like a raindrop with a little circle under it." Cosmo answered. Xanna thought of the mark, it lead to thinking of all the times she went to the lake in Eversong Forest to go cry. 'It's not a raindrop. It's a teardrop.' She thought. Ixxy placed a hand on her chin. 'How have I not noticed this mark at all?'
'I-ah!" Xanna was saying in her mind but let out a little squeal when someone had touched the back of her neck. "Cold hands."
"Sorry." Fëanáro said and took his hand away from the mark. "Xan Xan, you have to tell me where you got this tattoo…and after that, get rid of the tattoo. No Xan Xan of mine is going to walk around with a tattoo on any body part just so silly boys can stare at said body part."
"It's not a tattoo. And even if it was, who cares? It's just on the back of my neck."
"Sure, it starts out at the back of the neck. But soon, it'll be the shoulder, then the chest, then the stomach, then the leg, the thigh and the next thing you know, you go to a club, end up talking to this guy named Jerry, going to the Silvermoon City spa, somehow getting your apple juice spiked and getting your heart broken by the only tree I'll ever love." Everyone slowly turned their heads to look at Cosmo. "Er… S-so I've heard."
Ixxy slowly reached up to grab her head. 'I think I have a tumor.'
'We'll fix your cancer later! Right now, we have to get this group away from my neck, get Cosmo some therapy and maybe a relationship specialist, get our disguises, go to Stormwind, look around and marry Fëanáro." Ixxy grabbed her ice pack. 'Yeah…good luck with that.' She said and laid down on the bed in Xanna's mind. 'Awwww, you're not gonna help?' Xanna asked with a sad puppy dog face. 'Head still hurts from that damned tree branch.'
Xanna was about to beg Ixxy to get over her headache and help her live happily ever after with Fëanáro instead of thinking about how this was the first headache Ixxy had ever received and that it was not good when someone touched her back. She let out a little squeal, she knew it wasn't Fëanáro's hand this time. "Who's touching my back?!"
"Sorry." Makaza said and took his hand away. "Thought I, uh, saw something crawl up your back."
"Oh…"
'Yeah, somethin' did. And it was called your hand.'
'Stop bein' stupid. He was just making sure that-someone else is now touching my back and is slowly rubbing it and who is it?' Ixxy looked up to see who it was. Her eyes widened then she burst out into laughter. 'Well…that can't be good…' Xanna quietly sighed. "Who's rubbing my back?" Everyone looked down to see a blue hand on Xanna's back, then they looked at the person's face. "What? I'm just making sure she has a spine." Kadgaa said. Xanna mentally shook her head and placed her face in her right hand. 'Have I ever mentioned anything about how these people are rapists?' Xanna punched Ixxy's forehead with her left hand. 'Shut it.' She said as Ixxy twitched on the ground. 'This is gonna be a long, long trip…'
Everyone stared at the back of Xanna's neck for s good fourty-five minutes. "Okay, can you guys stop staring at the back of my neck. I'm startin' to feel a little uncomfortable."
'Starting???'
"Yeah. You guys should back off and stop staring at my little Xan Xan's tattoo." Cosmo said as he got in front of everyone, blocking the mark of the back of Xanna's neck. "It's not a tattoo."
"You're still getting rid of it so boys won't stare at you… And don't even try to think of getting another one in a different place!"
"But it's not a-" Xanna was saying as she turned around to face Cosmo and tell him that the mark wasn't a tattoo. He held up his hand. "I don't wanna hear it. As soon as we get back to Eversong, it's gone."
"But-"
"Don't wanna hear it."
"But it-"
"Nope."
"But, Cosmo, it's not a-" Cosmo placed a hand on Xanna's mouth. "My mind has been made up, Xan Xan. The tattoo is going." Xanna sighed and removed his hand. "Let's just get our disguises."
"Oh, yes. Your disguises." Henry said and began to fish for something in his pockets. "I know I have it here somewhere." He fished a little more. "Aha!" He pulled out a little orb looking thing. "Here it is." He smiled. "One of my favorite creations."
"That he made on accident." Simon said. "Quiet, you." Simon shrugged. "Oooh, it's shiny. Can I touch it?" Cosmo said as he reached out a finger to poke the shiny orb. "No!" Henry yanked the orb away, Cosmo frowned because he couldn't touch the shiny thing. "It's very fragile and I don't want anyone to touch it." He said as he wiped dust off of it. "Not even my own children."
"Oh…" Cosmo said, still frowning from not being able to touch the shiny thing. "So, how's this thing work?" Dethiam said and grabbed the orb from Henry's tiny hands. "Ah! Don't touch it!" Henry yelled and began to hop up and down. "Hmm…" Dethiam said as she looked at the orb. "Is there suppose to be a button or something?"
"No! It works in a very specific way! Now give it back!"
"Well, then, how does it work?" Dethiam said and began to tap on the orb. "Ah!" Henry climbed on Dethiam's back to get the orb back. "Get off me, you little monkey!" Dethiam began to spin around to get Henry off of her back; it didn't work out so well. "Alright! You wanna play hardball? I'll give ya hardball!" Dethiam plopped down on her back and began to crush Henry. Everyone's eyes widened as they watched Henry and Dethiam fight over the orb. '…No matter how much I like Dethiam and think she's a genius… She's an idiot. Doing that to the little monkey gnome is probably going to get us killed…'
'Yeah…'
"Aha! I've got it!" Henry cheered. Simon tapped on his shoulder. "Uh, dad?"
"Yes, Simon, my boy?"
"That's not the orb…that's his head." Henry looked at the thing he had in his head; it was a head. "I'm a girl, you dumbass!" Henry gasped and dropped the head, after he had done that, it tried to bite him. "Ah! Simon! Help me!" Simon rolled his eyes and cast a spell to freeze Dethiam's head. "Thank you, my boy." Henry panted as he walked over to Simon and patted his shoulder. "No problemo, dad." Henry nodded and straightened up. "Now to get the orb back from his body."
"I'm a girl, damn it!" Dethiam shouted. "Of course you are." Henry said as he walked over to Dethiam's body, which was running into a tree, to get the orb. He looked at her hands and there was nothing there. "Where is the blazes-?"
"Here, Fëanáro." A female voice said, Henry turned around. "Uh, thanks, I guess." Fëanáro said as he bent down to receive the orb from the female gnome. "Margret! What are you doing here?! I thought you were out with your mother."
"Grocery shopping with mom was boring so I went to the Tower of Azora to bug Simon, but I bumped into Fëan instead." Margret gave a little wink to Fëanáro, he shuddered a little. "I don't care how boring it is! Go back to the store and find your mother!" Henry commanded his daughter, then he looked at Simon. "You go with her and keep and eye on her."
"But, dad. I wanted to make fun of the elf's ears!" Simon complained and pointed at Cosmo. "What's wrong with my ears?" He asked as Simon walked away with Margret, who gave another wink to Fëanáro. "The same thing that's wrong with you entirely." Dethiam and Kadgaa said, they looked at each other for a moment. Dethiam raised her right eyebrow while Kadgaa raised his left. Then they both stuck their tongues out at each other. Mokoki rolled his eyes, walked over and put Dethiam's head back on her body. "Will you two stop playing mirror for a second? We got some work to do." Dethiam smacked Mokoki. "Don't man handle me! If anyone is gonna man handle someone, it's gonna be me!" Dethiam pointed her thumb at her chest. "Ugh. Don't do that." Mokoki said. "Why not?"
"Because, I follow your thumb and when you point it at you chest, all I see is nasty, rooting, purplish, decaying, bones instead of nice, little, pink, round bo-" Akazil smacked Mokoki. "Ow! What'd I say?!"
"You know what."
"No I don't. Or else I wouldn't have asked."
"Don't get smart with me!"
"Don't smack me!" Mokoki and Akazil began to argue. Dethiam pulled some popcorn out of nowhere and munched on it as she watched them argue. She began to laugh when Cosmo, Makaza, Ezekiel and Gishezpak got involved. Xanna sighed and walked over to Fëanáro and Henry. "May we please have the disguises, Mister Henry, sir?" Henry gave her a look. "Why? That undead man tried to attack me!"
"I know, but she just has anger issues. I mean, c'mon, do you really think that my group is organized enough to raid Stormwind?" Xanna motioned her arms to the giant wrestling pile and the crazy, laughing, undead woman. "I suppose not…"
"So, can we?" Xanna gave Henry the puppy dog look, trying to increase her chances of getting the disguises her and her group needed. "Only as long as you keep your group under control and if, Kadgaa Junior over there, is your guide."
"Kadgaa's a junior?"
"Yes. He is the son of one our greatest paladins, Kadgaa Senior."
"Cool, but, why can't Fëanáro be our guide?" Both, Xanna and Henry looked at Fëanáro, then Henry motioned Xanna to bend down. She did and Henry whispered in her ear. "I don't trust him."
"Why?"
"For some reason, my daughter is fascinated with that boy and I'm afraid he might try to take advantage of her."
"You know I can hear you, right?" Fëanáro asked. "Oh cheese and crackers."
"It's fine. I understand." Fëanáro laughed. "Yes, yes, yes, it's funny. Now, give me the Orb of Deception." Henry held out his hand for the orb, Fëanáro stopped laughing and gave it to him. "Gather 'round, Horde children. I am going to give you your disguises." All of them stopped beating each other up and walked over. "Hooray! Costumes! I love dressing up!" Cosmo cheered. "No, these are not just any ordinary costumes, my dear."
"I'm a boy…"
"Of course you are. Anyway, these are magical costumes. They will turn you all into Alliance for six hours. Once your six hours is up, you better be out of Stormwind or else."
"Or else what?"
"Or else they'll kill you, of course."
Oh…"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just shut up and show me how that thing works." Dethiam said. Henry gave her a little glare. "Alright, this is how it works." Henry said, everyone leaned in a little closer to see how the amazing shiny object worked. All he did was squeeze it like a stress ball. "That's it?!" Dethiam said. "Yes. It was suppose to be a stress ball but there were many problems and I accidentally made this. Now be quiet and count to three."
"Why should we-" Dethiam was saying. "One." Xanna and Cosmo said. "Two." They said. "Three." Everyone said. There was a burst of light from the orb. "What's happening?!" Cosmo shouted and grabbed on to the closet thing he could find. "Just stay calm!" Henry shouted. "I can't see anything!" Makaza shouted. "I'm blind!"
"Just a couple more seconds!" Henry shouted. The light stayed for five more seconds then went away. "Whoa." Kadgaa and Fëanáro said. Xanna and her friends rubbed their eyes so they could see clearly. "Whoa." They all said. '…We might live after all.'
And there ya have it, another cliffhanger. Sit, Boo Boo, sit. *Boo Boo doesn't sit* Bad dog! *shoots Boo Boo* Aren't I just evil? ^.^ Lol.
