Chapter 8: Roomies

When Ash, Melody, and Flannery got to their room, they found that there was a door right next to theirs. When they walked in they saw a restroom to the left of the door with a little kitchen area next to that, a closet, some drawers, two beds in the center of the room, a light in between the beds, a TV towards the center of the right wall, a glass sliding door on the ledge, a couch which could turn into a pull out bed, and a door on the right wall as well (basically anything you'd find in a normal hotel room was in there).

"I wonder who's in the next room," said Ash as he collapsed on a bed, "man these beds are comfy."

"Guess I'll sleep on the pull out bed," said Flannery.

"How about we rotate on who gets the pull out bed," asked Ash, "if you want I could take the first night."

"Thanks."

"Then that means I get the other bed I guess," said Melody.

As the girls unloaded their clothes into the drawers, Ash went and starred at the door. The door seemed like it was taunting him saying 'open me'. Finally after a miserable 5 minutes at looking at the door, he opened it and found Gary opening a door on the other side.

"Err, hi," said Ash.

"Looks like we both had the same idea," replied Gary.

"Guess so."

"Wait, do you know what this means?"

"Umm, party time?"

"Yes!"

"Brock, Party in Ash's room!"

"Okay, just let me finish unpacking," replied Brock.

"Hey Ash turn around," said Flannery.

"Huh," asked Ash as his face was met by a pillow hitting his head. "What was that for?"

"Do you really need someone to tell you that?"

"No," he replied as he picked up the pillow and threw it right back in her face, "it means PILLOW FIGHT!"

As soon as Ash threw his pillow at Flannery, war broke out between them, pillow after pillow was being thrown. Eventually though, Gary, Brock, and Melody joined in on the action as well.

"Hey, Flannery," Melody called.

"Yeah what is it Melo-," she never got to finish since her face was met by a pillow, "okay, you wanna play dirty, I'll play dirty."

"Hey," Ash whined as Flannery tied him up with rope and used him as a shield.

"That ain't cool," said Melody, "now that I think about it, how'd you get the rope in the first place?"

"Err, sock drawer at home?"

"Oh, okay, but sorry Ash, I still gotta throw pillows at her."

"Wait, aren't you gonna save me," asked Ash.

"Well, I was, but then I thought that I could hit you just this once, then save you and start throwing again."

"Oh, brother, just start throwing already," said Garry as he picked a pillow up and threw it at Ash's head.

"Ow! What was that for Gary?"

"Ash, there are no friends in a pillow fight, only enemies, I mean look at your girlfriend over there."

As Ash turned to look at Melody, he saw her holding not one, not two, not even four, but eight pillows in her hands. "Uh, Melody, you're not throwing ALL of those at me right?"

"No, of course not silly."

"Oh, thank god."

"I'm going to throw ten more at you then throw twenty-five at Flannery."

"WHAT THE HELL," Ash screamed as eight pillows met his head and ten more at the eight that were just launched at him, "how'd you throw those so fast," was all he said before knocking out.

"K.O.! Flannery's shield, Ash, has fainted! Winner, MELODY," yelled Brock before getting himself socked by eight pillows and faint by Gary.

"Stop narrating," said Gary, "this isn't wrestling you know."

"Nice shot," said Melody, "but not as good as this!"

"ZOMG MELODY DON'T YOU DARE," yelled Flannery as she saw what Melody had. Sure it wasn't anything destructive, but, it was terrifying. It was two pillows aimed for Flannery."

"Nighty-night Flannery," Melody said before throwing the two pillows at her. They connected, but as soon as they hit Flannery's face, Melody rushed to them and threw them back again and again at Flannery twenty-five times.

"I-I-I-I g-g-g-give," Flannery stated defeated.

"And you Gary, or do I have to force you into submission too?"

"Nope," was all he said as he waved an imaginary white flag in his hand.

"YAY I WIN," she cheered.

"What's all this ruckus for," Ms. Carol asked as she walked by the room, "oh my, did you have a pillow fight without me?"

"Yes we did and I kicked butt," cheered Melody, "*yawn* although now I think I'm going to sleep, good night and wake me up for dinner." With that, she fell right where she stood and dozed off.

"Well, right now it's 6:30 so I guess waking them up in ten minutes will give them all enough time to get ready for dinner."

Ten minutes later…

"WAKE UP EVERYONE," yelled Mr. Carol.

"ZOMG is it 2012 all ready? I'm too young to die, I haven't even kissed a girl yet," cried Brock.

"Wait what, 2012 shouldn't we be dead then," asked Flannery before looking at Ash in a corner with Melody, "Ooo, what's happening over here?"

Just then Ash turned around with a look of horror. "We're all doomed."

"Ash, Brock was only kidding around, it's still 2010," replied Melody.

"But I-."

"No, too bad, it's 2010 and we're alive."

"Okay."

"What just happened," asked Flannery.

"Oh, I was telling Ash here that 2012 isn't happening for another two years and not right now."

"Oh, gotcha."

"Well, if you'll let me interrupt you," Ms. Carol said, "it's time to get ready for dinner. I'll see you all in the lobby in twenty minutes."

"Wait, why's that," asked Ash.

"Because, you idiot, it's 6:40," replied Gary."

"So?"

"*sigh* "So" because dinner is at 7."

"Oh. Hey Brock, get up dinner's in twenty minutes."

No answer.

"I didn't want to use my secret weapon yet but, here goes, Brock some hot girl is outside looking for you."

With that Brock popped up got ready in less than three seconds, ran up to the door, bowed and said, "Hello madam."

"Wow Ash, good job on getting him up," said Melody as she finished getting ready.

"Oh, thanks."

"Aren't you going to get ready?"

"I am ready," he said as he spun and did a 360 spin and looked like he wasn't even in a pillow fight and tied in rope.

"Cool trick, but mines better," stated Gary as he snapped his fingers and looked like he got ready as well.

"How'd you guys do that," asked Flannery.

"Magic," Gary stated sarcastically.

"No, seriously."

"Fine, he just spun and moved his hands really fast while I did the same thing but even faster."

"Wow, I wanna do that."

"Maybe I'll show you later, anyway, it's time for dinner so come on everyone, to the lobby and dinner," declared Ash as they all walked out of the room.
