Already 6 chapters? Great!^^
This one is delayed one day, because I was rereading and partly rewriting it. The part that was partly rewritten, was the short scene at Foster's with Wilt, Coco and Eduardo, that I had to change completely, since the original version was focusing far to heavy on Eduardo's crying.
I tend to go into melodramatic when writing characters sad an frustrated.
This chapter is quite unique, since it's the first one without Mac and also the first one without Frankie since her side-plot started. Instead we're getting Wilt, Coco and Eduardo, setting of to help Frankie getting rid of her "clones".
I originally didn't plan those three to be in the story, but when I wrote it, I just found it fitting and put them in.
Ah, I'm monologuing again. I'd better stop that. XP
Have fun with Chapter 6! ;-)
----------------------------------------
Bloo closed the kitchen door behind him.
This was the first day in his life.
And it was already the worst day in his life.
Mac didn't want him.
Great.
The kid who thought him up didn't want him.
How much more pathetic could you get?
Where should he go now?
He only knew Mac and Terrance yet. What if every other kid in the world was like Terrance?
He didn't want to spend the rest of his days as slave of some random jerk.
Bloo shivered at the thought...
As he suddenly heard a loud laughing. It came from Terrance's room.
Bloo's natural curiosity kicked in. He went to the door and started eavesdropping.
Terrance was monologuing:
"MUHAHAHAHA! I just can't believe it worked! But it did! Putting the cake into the fridge was sooooo smart of me, I should give myself a medal! Now, I know, some might say, that it was a stupid idea, because nice, friendly and adorable Mac would never EVER eat something his mother forbid him to eat, even if it were right before his nose, but he DID! I'm so great! HAHAHA!"
Bloo couldn't believe, what he had to hear. He slapped his hand into his own face:
"God, it was a trap! And I made Mac fall into it! Way to go, Bloo!---
Wait a minute! That's not my fault! It's Terrance's! HE put the cake there, because HE, wanted it to happen! He's the one who made Mac feel miserable! He alone!
And he WILL pay for this....Because THIS is a game you can play with TWO players as well!!! And BLOOREGARD Q. KAZOO is gonna win this one!!!
Memo to myself: Gotta meditate over how awesome my name is!"
This moment, Bloo made a plan.

Terrance came out of his room, still laughing:
"Best. Day. EVER! Oh, it just can't get any better than this...uh?"
Terrance noticed, that his leg hit something. He looked down.
Some kind of... doll was lying to his feet.
A pretty strange doll.
All blue and smiling. Kind of cute.
"Aww, if that isn't one of Maci's looser-toys! And a new one too! The day CAN get better!"
Terrance grabbed the doll and held it up right in front of him:
"Hold still my little friend, I'm just going to tear you apart into tiny, little pieces now! MUHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Oh, I don't think so."
"WHA---"
Terrance stared at the doll in disbelieve:
"Did this thing just—"
Terrance looked into the eyes of the doll.
He looked closer... And closer... And closer...
"Big, fat Jerk!"
"WHAT THE---"
Suddenly, the doll pulled Terrance's shirt up over his head and knoted it together.
"Hey, what are you doing, you... stupid, evil doll!"
"You're the one who's stupid and evil here!", answered Bloo with a smirk, as he jumped down onto Terrances feet.
"OUTSCH!"
"And this is for Mac!!"
Bloo kicked him in the shin.
"AAAAAAAAHHH! ....You... little....."
While Terrance was still screaming, with his shirt knotted together above his head, Bloo ran away laughing:
"Want revenge for that? Come and catch me, idiot!!!"
"Wait up!... OUTSCH!"
Terrance crashed into the wall.
Lesson learned:
You don't see well with a shirt covering your sight.

Rrrrrrring!
A red hand reached out and picked up the receiver.
Wilt answered the phone:
"Foster's Home for imaginary friends! I'm sorry, but nobody from the management-department is here right now. Is it OK if you call la---
Oh, Frankie, it's you! Hi! And? Did you get your license?
Huh? Why not?
...
Oh, you're still in the test, I see. Why are you calling then?
.....
Errm, I'm sorry, but could you please repeat that? It sounded a lot like:
"Hyperactive little girl is flooding the street with an army of imaginary friends that look like me."
...
Oh, you DID say that?
...
And she won't stop making up more?
...
And nobody is getting through anymore?
...
You can't finish your test like that?
Don't worry, Frankie, I'm on my way!
...
Yes, I will take Coco and Eduardo with me.
We'll be right there in a minute, just hold out, is that OK?
It is? Well, then, till' later!"
Wilt hung up and ran up to his room, to pick up his two roommates.
"Coco, Eduardo! Frankie, Madam Foster and Mr. Herriman are in trouble!"
The the strange and yet-birdlike Imaginary Friend jumped out of her nest:
"COCO!?"
"Something with a little girl, making up a whole army of Frankie's."
"C-C-Clones?!",
Big, purple Imaginary Friend Eduardo jumped onto his bed and pulled the blanket over his head:
"I not coming! No! The clones are going to eat me!!"
Wilt was kind of confused:
"Errmm... Eduardo? Are you alright?"
Coco rolled her eyes:
"Co Coco Cococo Co Co."
"He watched "Clone Attack" last night? Isn't that the movie that couldn't be rated because the critics were traumatized by it?"
"The clones will do most horrible, horrible things to us!!! I don't want to die!!"
Eduardo pressed his stuffed bunny, Pacco, against him, as if it could protect him from the evil he was fearing so much."
Wilt went up to his bed:
"Eduardo, if the movie freaked you out so much, why did you even watch it in the first place?"
"Coco said, it had bunnies!"
"What?"
"Coco co co cococo!"
"Yeah, watching movies all alone IS boring, but why tricking Eduardo, out of all friends in the house, into watching it with you?"
"Coco co"
"..Yeah, you might be right about that, but now Eduardo is... well..."
"The clones, THE CLONES!!!"
Wilt sighed:
"I'm sorry, guys, but we really have to get to help Frankie fast. And she said, that she needed all three of us, or it won't work. And everything else they tried to get the Frankie-doubles of the street failed."
"Coco co co cococo co?"
"Uhhhmm... No, I'm pretty sure they didn't try that yet... It wouldn't be very nice, you know."
"Coco coco co?"
"And THIS is just plain illegal."
"Co...."
"Look, I'm sorry, but they need us! We really gotta hurry!"
"CO!"
But Eduardo just buried himself deeper under stuffed animals and bedsheets:
"No! Los clones no está recibiendo Eduardo!!"
Carefully, Wilt tried to calm Eduardo down:
"Don't worry, Eduardo, it was just a movie! What we have to cope with here are just Imaginary Friends, that look like our Frankie! And how could anyone, who looks like Frankie be evil?"
"That's what Davis think about Eliza's clones too... right before they EAT him!!!!WUUHAAA!!!"
„Coco, next time you want to watch a movie, watch it with me instead, OK?"
„*sigh* Co Co."
Wilt and Coco turned around and left the room:
„I just hope, whatever Frankie is trying to will also work without Eduardo. I wouldn't want her, Madam Foster and Mr. Herriman to be stuck in trouble."
Eduardo, who just heard not one, not two, but three names of people, he knew and cared about in the same sentence as „trouble" looked up and pulled the blanket away:
„Frankie, Madam Foster and Mr Herriman in trouble? Because of clones?"
He thought about it a few seconds.
Then, he jumped out of the bed:
„NO! THE CLONES ARE NOT EATING EDUARDO'S FRIENDS!"
With his new-found motivation, Eduardo rushed out of the room, after Wilt and Coco.
------------------------------------------
Just to be sure, I watched up if there's any real movie called „Clone attack". Luckily, there isn't. Looks like hollywood hasn't sunk that deep yet after all. XP
I found it kind of hard to write Wilt's dialoug. I don't really know why, I just didn't go as smoothly as with the other characters.
Coco's Dialoug, on the other hand, was (of course) really easy and fun to write. I just counted the syllables of the lines, I wanted her to say and, violá! Coco-speech!
Coco!^^
