Me: This is the final chapter of Raised by Monkeys…
Chiro: Why do you sound so disappointed?
Antauri: Chiro this is the first story she ever posted. Probably relinquishing it means a lot to her.
Chiro: Oh.
Me: Yeah. I've been dreading the day. But I'm glad too. I can move on and start another story.
Chiro: Oh yeah?
Me: I'm going to write one of my own challenges. See how different our stories are based on the same challenge.
Chiro: Cool.
Antauri: This will be interesting.
Me: I don't own SRMTHFG!
Antauri and Chiro: Read and Review!
Chapter Twenty Three: The Girl
I smiled as I felt the wind hitting my face. Today was perfect for skateboarding. Antauri had warned me about knee and elbow pads but I didn't put them on. I had my helmet, so who cared if I scraped my knees or my elbows a little? At least I was protecting my brain!
I saw a flash of pink and gasped. There was a beautiful pink haired girl in a sea-foam green dress rollerblading down the street. She moved in rhythm with the ground and I thought she was an angel.
She looked back at me with grass green eyes and gasped. I thought I was ugly until I smacked straight into a light pole.
I clutched my face and waited for the pain to lessen. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up and the girl was now holding my hand. Holding my hand. I thought this was just a beautiful dream. "Are you alright?" the girl asked.
"Have had worse hits," I said.
"Your Chiro?" she asked.
"Yes I am," I said. "And who are you?"
The girl giggled. "My name is Jin-May," she said. "I'm Mr. McLeod's daughter,"
"I'm Antauri's son," I said. Jin-May giggled and I blushed. "You want to go to the park sometime?" I asked.
"I'd love to," Jin-May said. "Saturday at three?"
I realized that I had the day off Saturday. "Perfect!" I said loudly. "See you then!"
"See you then," Jin-May said. She kissed me on the cheek. "Don't run into any more light poles," With that said she bladed away.
I sat there, motionless. I got kissed on a check by a girl. A girl that wasn't Nova. I got kissed by a girl!
I jumped up and skated home. "I GOT KISSED BY A GIRL!" I shouted. "I GOT KISSED BY A GIRL!"
I ran into something and looked down. I knew who I hit before I heard the voice. "Chiro?" Antauri asked. "What are you talking about?"
"I met a girl," I said with a small voice. "Her name's Jin-May and she kissed me on the cheek," I felt myself blushing and I looked up.
Antauri picked me up and straightened me up. He shook his head and said, "Nova isn't going to be happy,"
"Why's that?" I asked.
Antauri swooped me up, carrying me bridal style even though I was too big. "Because you're growing up," Antauri said. "Nova wanted you to stay small forever,"
"Why?" I asked.
"Because you're her son," Antauri said. "She doesn't want to lose you,"
"She won't lose me," I said.
Antauri sighed. "I'll explain later," he said. He put me down and I grabbed my skateboard. "You need to come home," Antauri said. "That's th…"
A woman screamed and we looked. Mandarin had somehow gained control of the Formless. I went into Hyperform and Antauri activated his Ghost Claws. "Let's bet some ugly monkey butt!" I yelled.
And that's just what we did.
Me: Don't worry. There will be a continuation of this story.
Chiro: I thought you were going to leave us on a cliffhanger.
Me: I didn't. I hope you all enjoyed that!
