Hellowe! We hope you all had a Happy Valentine's Day and if you didn't… don't be sad. We love you!
Unfortunately, we haven't had any time to respond to your reviews. University wants to kill us, so we're afraid we won't be able to do it very often from now on.
Terrorking Posseidon and Johnny belong to us! All the other caracters don't.
There are several true facts in this chapter. Can you find them all?
Enjoy the eleventh chapter of Heart to Beat!
Chapter 11
"Look at it! It shines! And it's mine!... My Preciousssssssssssss!" Maya looked obsessively at her bracelet.
Rose looked strangely at Maya who she thought had gone even more insane than usual. "What?" Maya asked innocently.
"Just make sure you won't become as crazy as Smeagol, Caféjoenk."
"As Weevil?"
"No! As Smeagol, not Weevil! Weevil is cute.", Rose stated.
Maya stared at Rose. "Cute? I wouldn't go that far, but… maybe he is… kinda… nah!"
"Well, at least he's not scary, less scary than you."
"FEAR ME!", Maya yelled as she stood up proudly.
"Me? Fear you? It's too late for that. I can't fear someone who still sleeps with stuffed animals."
"Grlmbl!", Maya 'replied'. "At least I'm more scary than you…"
"It's time to to to to to to to to to to…"
"To duel?", Maya guessed as her friend stood up pointing to the sky.
"To eat!"
"Tweet? Are you a bird now?", Maya asked as confused as ever.
"Tais-toi!"
"Okay…", Maya obeyed.
Rose went to the door. "It's time to eat, eeeeaaaaaatttttt, food! What else?"
"How do you know that?"
"Because I'm hungry!"
"You're always hungry!", Maya retorted.
"It's still time! My watch helped!"
"Oh, why didn't you say so, Caféjoenk."
"I just did, Caféjoenk."
"Let's go then, I want a table for two this time, if they have one. Which I doubt. Pegasus isn't that smart. He proved that with the owls and the tent."
"It wouldn't be that bad. Perhaps Rex comes to sit with us again!", Rose sang the last word as she looked up at the ceiling hopefully.
"IF he made it."
Rose gave Maya a look and Maya knew Rose was indeed more scary than she was. "I mean, of course he is here… together with that 'cute' little boy."
Rose was pleased with that answer and finally opened the door. They went through long corridors (good thing Rose was with Maya), and many doors (good thing Maya was with Rose) and finally reached their destination. They weren't amused when they saw that there was only one big table.
"NO!", Maya exclaimed dramatically. "Now we have to be social! I haven't done that for years!"
"How does that work?", Rose worried.
"I think we have to listen to people and answer when they ask a question. BUT! We have to be careful! We can only say what they want to hear, otherwise they won't like us."
"So we have to lie? I don't want to lie to Rex.", Rose worried on.
"Didn't you lie to Rex on the boat?"
"Of course not!", Rose lied unknowingly, because she didn't remember she had told Rex that Ik hou van jou actually means: I love you.
"Oh, well I wasn't really paying attention. I wasn't socialising, you were."
"I was?"
"Yes, you listened, you answered and you proposed."
"Proposed? It's a bit early for that…", Rose said, blushing.
"Not like that, Caféjoenk! I mean you invited him to your bedroom."
"…" Rose was as red as a tomato.
"I just mean you were nice.", Maya said, carefully choosing her words now. "Just make sure not to reveal your deck this time."
"I won't make the same mistake. Let's take the seats over there. At least we're not in the middle then."
Maya and Rose went to their seats and sat down right next to the head of the table. Because this time they were going to listen to Pegasus. Sometime later, a man came in named Johnny Vendo.
"Hey! It's the Stannah-man!", Maya whispered with force.
"He's the one that almost caused us to die.", Rose whispered back.
"That was your own fault. You needed to run and to sing!"
"At least I was able to get us here. And shut up, he's sitting down."
Johnny went to the table and sat in front of Rose. Maya and Rose looked at each other and knew they had to say 'hello'. So they said: "Hellowe." The man just nodded at them and didn't pay them any further attention. "Was that okay?", Rose whispered to Maya. "At least we tried.", Maya whispered back.
Next to arrive was the gang. "Here we go again." Maya and Rose whispered, taking a deep breath. "Hellowe Yugi. Hellowe Tea. Hellowe Tristan… " They stopped when they saw Joey, but decided to forget their differences and greet him. "Hello Joey." Joey made a noise and followed his friends. They let one seat open between Maya and themselves.
Then, someone came in, who they didn't expect. It was Espa Roba. Of course Rose had told Maya about Rex' hallucination when they battled that monster, so she wasn't pleased to see him here. "Do we have to say hello to HIM?", Rose whispered to Maya. "Well, we said hello to Joey. He was a part of the hallucination too, wasn't he?" "Well yes, but… okay."
"Hello Roba."
"You two know my name?", Espa Roba said in surprise.
"Yes, we're psychic.", Rose said sarcastically. Roba got the point and left to sit with the gang, far from that witch.
Rex and Weevil were the next ones to arrive. They ran inside "Hurry up, Rex! I don't want to have to sit with someone else again."
"What about me then?", Rex asked.
"… Just follow me." But then they saw that there was only one big table and there already were a lot of people. "No! What do we do now?"
"Sit down.", Johnny said wisely, nodding.
"Not anywhere near THEM.", they said as they looked at the gang. As they passed Rose and Maya to sit on the other edge of the table, they were greeted with an enthusiastic "Hellowe!"
"Hello!", Rex replied, feeling relieved that Rose made it out of the forest AND into the second round.
"… Hello.", Weevil answered as well, but in a monotone way. Seeing that Rex just stood, smiling at Rose who smiled back, he dragged him along to their seats. They left two places between themselves and the gang.
"I can't believe we made it…", Weevil said, staring in disbelief at the table before him.
"I told you we had to check the forest first!", Rex mumbled with force.
"Shut up! I knew what I was doing!"
"That makes it even worse!", Rex yelled.
"SHH! Shut up! I… I just wanted to go for a walk before going to our tent in the forest."
"Grrrr… if we had gone into the forest first, we wouldn't have lost so much precious time."
"We made it and that's all that counts. End of discussion.", Weevil concluded.
Back to the other end of the table:
"Yes, it worked!", Rose whispered happily to Maya. "Hey, Maya, you told me Kaiba already had ten starchips didn't you? Then where is he?"
"He'll be here. He's just… taking his time doing something… OH! There he is!"
"How did he get there?", Rose wondered.
"… Through that door there…" Maya pointed at a door on the other side of the room. Apparently, Kaiba was the only one who was so smart to take another door as he didn't want to greet anyone.
"So, we're just waiting for the Pope now. And I never thought I would say that.", Rose said.
They waited for another five minutes and suddenly: "Greetings dear duelists! And welcome to MY castle."
"Is he going to do another speech?", Maya asked.
"I guess so."
"I know we said we would listen to him this time, but I'm already tired of him… ."
"Just pay attention. It might be important.", Rose tried to convince Maya and herself.
"You don't believe that yourself, do you?"
"I do, I do… I think… I'll try to…"
"Kaibaboy! Can you hear me?", Pegasus suddenly asked.
"Unfortunately yes.", Kaiba answered without lowering his voice at all.
"Come closer to us! Rexyboy, Weeviboy! You too!"
"How did he call me?", Weevil asked stunned.
"Weeviboy.", Rex sang.
"Shut up, Rexyboy!", Weevil answered angrily.
"Weeviboy… that sounds so cute!", Rose whispered to Maya, but Pegasus overheard her.
"Indeed Rosygirl! Weeviboy is cute!", Pegasus said loudly. Rose looked at her plate in embarrassment as Weevil stared at her, deeply shocked. Nobody had ever called him cute before. Even Rex was taken aback.
"Kaibaboy! There's a place for you next to Mayagirl and Yugiboy."
Kaiba reluctantly walked over to his appointed seat, but he was welcomed by an enthusiastic Maya. "Hellowe Seto!"
To everyone's astonishment, Kaiba said hello back.
"Hellowe Kaiba!", Rose greeted politely. However, Kaiba didn't answer and Rose sadly looked down at her plate… again.
"Rexyboy and Weeviboy! Come over here and sit between Johnnyboy and Teagirl!", Pegasus went on.
So Rex sat down next to Johnny and Weevil next to Tea for he wanted to stay as far away as possible from Pegasus.
"How cute! We're one big family! Now that everyone can hear me, I shall announce dinner. On the menu: roasted owl, croquets and various vegetables!"
"Again?", Rose and Maya whispered.
"After the delicious meal, I shall do an announcement!"
"Again?", Maya and Rose whispered.
"And after the announcement there will be cheese and wine. Now enjoy the meal!", Pegasus said hands in the air, almost hitting Rose and Johnny.
"Oh, sorry Johnnyboy!"
Rose sadly looked down at her plate again, for she was again being ignored.
"The socialising isn't going well, is it?", Maya asked Rose. She shook her head.
Then Croquet proudly entered, giving everyone the food. So they ate peacefully. The gang talked to each other about duels, Grandpa and friendship. Kaiba just ate in silence, Rex devoured his food and Weevil carefully observed everything around him for he was very distrustful. Especially of Pegasus. A girl finding him cute was okay, he guessed, but an older man… no. Maya and Rose tried not to stare at Kaiba and Rex respectively.
Suddenly, Johnny stood up, bent over the table till his head was above Rose's plate and stared right at her face. Rose backed away instinctively.
"You eat with a lot of taste!", Johnny stated.
"… Really?", Rose peeped.
Maya, Rex, Weevil, Pegasus and even Kaiba looked up from their food and looked at the strange scene.
"Yes! Unlike that unmannered fellow next to me."
"At least I don't drool on other people's plate!", Rex answered defensively.
Johnny however didn't seem to have heard him. All his attention went to this person who ate with a lot of taste, also known as Rose Lieben.
"He's just enjoying his food. There's nothing wrong with that, is there?", Rose said, trying to defend Rex.
Johnny however came even closer, forcing Rose to lean even further back so that Maya, Rex and Weevil feared she would fall backwards. Johnny wildly shook his head.
"No! Only you have manners! It's good to eat slowly and chew thoroughly. It's good for your digestion!"
"… Really?", Rose peeped again, as red as a tomato. "I knew that, already.", she peeped on.
"Give me your bracelet.", Johnny suddenly said.
"NO! It's my Preciousssss!", Maya yelled.
"I wasn't talking to you! I was talking to Rosygirl!", Johnny replied, not looking away from Rose.
"Oh well, Rose mustn't give it either!"
"Please, give me your bracelet, Rosygirl.", Johnny asked again.
"I don't want to…", Rose peeped again. "Why do you want it?"
"I will make it disappear."
"Then why would she give it?", Weevil suddenly reacted.
"Because I will do a magic trick."
Kaiba almost choked on his food.
"I want to see the magic trick!", Pegasus said enthusiastically.
"No! Don't do it Rose!", Maya said.
"Of course not.", Rose said. Her legs were getting tired from holding her weight on the chair.
"No, Rosygirl. You have to.", Pegasus said. "Otherwise you will be disqualified."
"That's not fair! Just because you want to see a magic trick?", Rex suddenly intervened.
"Yes Rexyboy, because I am the boss, aren't I, Croquet?"
"Yes sir! You are the boss.", Croquet said thinking about his salary.
Johnny bent over even more and laid down on the table. Rose grasped for the table as she instinctively backed even further away. "Help!", She suddenly yelled.
"Please give it, Rosygirl. I'll give it back of course."
"Okay, I will give it, but please sit down again.", Rose said almost desperate.
"No don't do it!", Maya said.
Johnny sat back on his chair. Sauce was on his clothes and some pieces of owl. Reluctantly, Rose gave him the bracelet. Johnny did something with his hands and suddenly the bracelet disappeared!
"Amazing!", Pegasus applauded.
"Now give it back!", Rose said.
Johnny did something with his hands again and the bracelet was back!
"Amazing!", Pegasus applauded again.
Rose held out her hand for the bracelet, but Johnny said he wanted to put it back on her arm himself.
"I can perfectly do that myself.", Rose said getting a bit angry.
"No, I want to put it back on your arm."
Rose reluctantly held out her hand over the table and Johnny carefully and slowly put it back around her wrist. As soon as the job was done, Rose pulled her arm back as fast as she could.
"How romantic!", Pegasus said.
"Ggrrrr…", was all Rex could 'think' without even noticing it.
Everyone had finished their food, except Johnny and Rose. So they ate the rest of their cold owl. When that was done, Pegasus stood up.
"Now, I shall announce the match-ups."
"Finally…", Kaiba said.
Suddenly Croquet appeared with a bowl with balls.
"On every ball, there is a name. I shall take out a ball and then another ball. The two names on them shall duel. Is that clear?"
"Yes.", Everyone said, except for Johnny who nodded.
"Croquet! Drumroll, please!"
"Bbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!", Croquet 'said'.
Pegasus put his hand in the bowl and moved around dramatically while looking up at the ceiling. Suddenly he stopped, and took out a ball.
"Oh, what a coincidence! The first one to go is…"
"BBBRRRRRRRRR!", Croquet continued to 'say'.
"ROSYGIRL!"
Maya and Johnny applauded. Rose looked happy.
"Who shall be her opponent? Nobody knows, except the bowl."
Rose and Maya looked at each other strangely, trying not to laugh.
Pegasus took out another ball. "It's ESPABOY!"
"Nyeeeaaaaahhhh!", Joey 'said'. All the members of the gang wished Espa Roba good luck. Rose didn't look happy anymore and looked down at the table for her plate was gone.
"Now you can take revenge.", Maya said in Dutch.
"That's true!" And Rose was happy again.
"The second duel shall be between… WEEVIBOY! This will be such a cute duel."
Maya, Rose, Johnny and Rex too now applauded.
"Ggrlmbl!", Weevil 'said'.
"HOOOO! This will be an emotional duel between two best friends!", Pegasus dramatically said, covering his eyes.
"Who?", Rex asked looking at everyone except himself. "… me?"
"Yes REXYBOY! You shall duel your best friend."
Rose and Maya applauded.
"But I have dueled him a thousand times.", Rex said disappointed.
"And lost.", Weevil added. So Rex hit Weevil on the head. Weevil hit back. Rex hit back… they began to fight.
"Stop!", Rose yelled and she began to cry. Or that's at least what everyone thought.
"Now look what you have done. You made her cry.", Maya said.
Rex and Weevil ceased their fighting, glaring at each other.
"See, no manners at all!", Johnny suddenly said. Then he stood up and bent over the table to Rose. "Are you okay, Rosygirl?"
Rose immediately stopped 'crying'. "I'm fine! I'm happy! I have never been so happy in my whole life!"
Johnny nodded and sat down again.
"Well, now that Rosygirl is happy again, I will announce the third duel. The third duel shall be… KAIBABOY!"
Maya applauded.
"And he shall duel against…"
"My name! My name! My name!", Maya thought hopefully.
"JOHNNYBOY!" Johnny applauded and Maya cursed.
"And now I shall announce the final duel!", Pegasus said and went with his hand in the bowl again.
"That's so unnecessary…", Rose thought and Weevil mumbled.
"It's YUGIBOY! AAAAANNNNDDDDD…"
"BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…", Croquet continued to 'say'.
"His opponent will be…"
"BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…"
"Another duelist…"
"BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…"
"Called…"
"BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…"
"Nobody knows, except the bowl!"
"Huh?", everyone wondered.
"It's MAYAGIRL!"
"Yay! It's me!", Maya said happily.
"Now you can take revenge too.", Rose said to Maya in Dutch.
"Oh yesssss! I hadn't thought of that."
Kaiba stood up and started to walk away.
"Kaibaboy!"
Kaiba stopped still, not being able to believe this.
"I still have an announcement to do."
"Again?", Rose and Maya whispered.
"But first, there will be cheese and wine!"
Kaiba very reluctantly walked back to his seat.
"Make sure you don't get drunk this time, Maya.", Rose said.
"Why did you say that?", Maya said in a low voice.
"So that you wouldn't forget it."
"I know, but why in English?"
"… I forgot.", Rose suddenly realised.
"Wine is not something for little children.", Johnny said wisely.
"I'm no child anymore. I'm nineteen years old!", Maya said proudly. "Two weeks older than Rose!"
"And still I have never been drunk before.", Rose said nose in the air.
Croquet came along with the cheese and various wines from good years. He called the names of the wines one by one and asked who wanted which one.
"All of them.", Johnny said. He's a real man, so he got all of them. Rex and Weevil just took something for they knew nothing about wines. The gang took the wine Espa Roba recommended and Kaiba apparently knew very well which one he wanted. In the end, just Maya and Rose remained. They said no to every wine.
"These are all the wines I've got.", Pegasus said. "Perhaps you want something else then?"
"HOT CHOCOLATE!", Maya and Rose said in unison.
Everyone looked at them in surprise, except for Kaiba and Rex who smiled.
"… Okay… Croquet do we have hot chocolate?", Pegasus worried.
"No, sir.", Croquet answered.
"But do you have milk and chocolate?", Rose asked.
"Yes.", Croquet answered formally.
"Then you can make hot chocolate! Just mix it with a bit of sugar, warm it up et voilà."
"Croquet! Go and make hot chocolate for our guests!", Pegasus ordered.
"Yes sir!", Croquet obeyed and he walked off. After ten minutes he came back and filled the room with a delicious smell. All of a sudden, everyone was jealous of Rose and Maya. They started to drink their chocolate milk with their spoon like two little children. Weevil didn't understand why he was considered the cute one at the table. He decided to try to get rid of his 'cute' reputation.
"Look, how cute."
It wasn't just weird for him to say, but also weird for the others to hear.
"Are you okay? Did you drink too much wine?", Rex asked a bit worried.
"No! I'm perfectly sober! Those two are cute!", Weevil said pointing at Maya and Rose. "Or don't you agree?"
"Perhaps you should lie down a bit.", Rex worried on.
"No! Answer me!"
Rex looked over at Rose and started to blush. "… euhm,… well I a… Pegasus! You still have to do an announcement!" Rose looked sadly at her cup of chocolate milk. So he didn't think she was cute at all.
"Why are you depressed?", Maya asked in Dutch.
"Because he doesn't think I'm cute. He doesn't like me.", Rose sadly said.
"He's just shy. It doesn't mean anything.", Maya tried to comfort her friend.
"Rex and shy? That doesn't match."
Rex of course had heard his name, but had no idea what was being said about him. But he figured it was something bad.
"Now, Mayagirl and Rosygirl. Stop talking in German. I have an announcement to do.", Pegasus intervened.
"It's NOT German! It's DUTCH!", Maya and Rose said in unison.
"Who cares. I am going to say something very important so listen carefully." Pegasus' tone suddenly changed and this didn't go by unnoticed, so everyone shut up.
"There is a reason why I organised this tournament. I am sure that you are aware of the recent deaths of duelists all over the world." Everybody nodded. "This is not a coincidence. They are caused by a duel monster I created. I wanted to create the ultimate monster, who would be able to abandon its card. I succeeded, but unfortunately, it turned out to be evil. That's why I decided to gather the best duelists from all over the world to duel it. Every time it's beaten, it becomes weaker and then it has to return to its card to regain strength. This duel monster is called 'Terrorking Posseidon'. But be aware, it has a few special abilities and even I don't know all of them. But the one he uses the most frequently is that he can change tears into blood. Moreover, he can split himself into several bodies and can take any shape he wants. His objective is to kill duelists, but once challenged, he can't refuse a duel. So it's the only way to beat him and to survive."
"Humpf! What a bunch of superstitious nonsense!", Kaiba scoffed. Maya nodded in agreement, but a bit thoughtful, for she remembered her fear from the night before.
"But if it is a card, can't we just tear it apart?", Rose simply suggested. The gang was shocked.
"I am afraid it's not that simple.", Pegasus answered.
"Oh come on. It's just a card! No matter how strong they are in a game of duel monsters, it's just a piece of paper!", Maya exclaimed.
"That's where you're wrong. Every duel monsters card possesses a hart and a soul.", Yugi stated.
"Yugi, stop that occult nonsense!", Kaiba said, annoyed.
"Some cards have a heart and a soul and others don't.", Rose suddenly intervened.
"Huh?", Everybody looked at her, which made her a bit shy, but she decided to go on. "Yes, it depends of the person who uses the card. Only those who truly love their cards will put their heart and soul in it. That way, a special and irreplaceable bond will be formed. Cards that are not appreciated by their user won't possess a heart and a soul, because only the user can put it in them, which he won't do if he doesn't love his cards. For example, I truly love my dinosaurs and no-one can break that bond."
"Caféjoenk! You said you wouldn't make that mistake again!", Maya whispered. Rose froze. Everybody knows her deck now.
"Very well said! You possess quite a wisdom, girl!", Espa Roba said sarcastically. Rex however didn't notice Espa Roba's sarcasm and thought he wanted to seduce Rose. "Dirty dog!", he thought gritting his teeth.
"Wow, even we're no match for her.", Tristan said impressed.
"Why didn't I think of that?", Yugi wondered.
"What a ridiculous thought!", Kaiba said.
"Kaiba, you've seen it a thousand times! Duel monsters are real!", Joey exclaimed.
"Humpf, just hallucinations.", Kaiba scoffed.
Weevil, who wasn't really paying attention anymore, suddenly remembered something. "Rex, last night, you were covered in blood!" Rex nodded, but Pegasus overheard them.
"What? Did you survive an attack from the Terrorking Posseidon?", Pegasus said astonished.
"I think so…", Rex answered a bit unsure.
"But how did you do that?", Pegasus asked.
Rex looked over to Rose as he knew she had saved him, but he didn't want to admit that. Being saved by a girl… how stupid.
"I… I… defeated it in a duel!", he lied. A hurt look appeared in Rose's eyes as she stared at Rex. He noticed that, but didn't dare to take back his words.
"But your face was covered in blood! You should have passed out.", Pegasus went on, not noticing the interactions.
"I was just in time to finish the duel. Afterwards Weevil and Rose helped me." Rose once again lowered her head, but this time she was really hurt. This upset Rex more than he wanted to admit. Weevil looked meaningfully between him and Rose.
"Unbelievable!", Pegasus exclaimed. "That someone was able to survive an attack from the Terrorking Posseidon!"
"Well…", Rose looked over at Maya.
"What? Oh yes, I think I saw him too.", Maya realised. The gang was taken aback because Maya still denied his existence.
"You too?", Pegasus said even more astonished. "How did you survive?"
"If you're talking about that weakling from last night, I defeated him.", Kaiba interrupted.
"And still you don't believe he's real?", Tea asked.
"Look, it doesn't matter. Even if, and I say IF, it were really a duel monster, that doesn't change the fact the card is made of paper. The only thing we have to do…", Maya took her napkin in her hands, "… is to pick up the card and tear it apart." Maya tore her napkin apart for nobody knows how that goes. Kaiba thought that was funny and Yugi had a flashback of his Grandpa's Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Rex looked horrified as he remembered his nightmare where Weevil and Rose had torn his favourite cards apart.
"Like I said, that's not possible.", Pegasus said. Maya sighed and laid down her two half napkins.
"Why not?", Weevil interrupted. "The card isn't made of steel, is it?"
"No… but I don't know where it is.", Pegasus said without even being embarrassed. There was a united "What?" from across the table.
Maya: R&R please!
Rose: My pleasure!
Maya: Huh? You're going to review our own story?
Rose: Huh? What are you talking about?
Maya: What are YOU talking about?
Rose: No, what are YOU talking about?
Rex: *comes in* What are you talking about?
Rose+Maya: We don't know.
Weevil: *comes in also* Let's just ask the readers for R&R.
Maya: I just did!
Rose: Oh Weevy, thank you! *hugs him*
Rex: *glaring*
Weevil: Let… me… go.
Maya: Where to?
Weevil: The toilet!
Rose: Oh sorry. *lets Weevil go, but he stays*
Silence.
Maya: Well…
Weevil: Well what?
Maya: Go.
Weevil: Where to?
Maya: The toilet!
Weevil: Why? It's creepy there.
Maya: I agree… but still, you said you had to go.
Weevil: Oh… erm, okay. *walks outside and returns after five seconds*
Rose: Wow, that was fast.
Kaiba: *walks in* What are you talking about.
Maya: About R&R and the toilet.
Rose: YAY YAY YAY R&R!
Kaiba: Why is she so happy?
Maya: I don't know.
Rex: *still glaring at Weevil, then hoping Rose is going to hug him too if he says the same thing*
R&R!
Rose: *faints*
Weevil: Rex! What are you doing?
Rex: I just did what you did.
Weevil: Liar! You didn't go to the toilet!
Rose: *still unconscious, but whispering* R&R, R&R, R&R, R&R, R&R,…
Maya: Rawr?
Rex: She thinks she's a dinosaur! Good!
Maya: No, not good!
Weevil: Of course it's not good, she has to think she's an insect.
Maya: I give up… Rose, wake up!
Rose: … huh… *wakes up slowly*
Maya: Wake up!
Rose: … I'm awake. What happened?
Rex: R&R.
Maya: NO! *quickly tries to cover Rex' mouth, but it was too late.*
Rose: YAY! REX AND ROSE, REX AND ROSE, REX AND ROSE, REX AND ROSE!
Maya+Rex+Weevil+Kaiba: What?
Rose: R&R! Rex and Rose! Yay!
Maya+Rex+Weevil+Kaiba: *stare*
Rex: That's our names yes…
Maya: Rose… I have to tell you something…
Rose: R&R right!
Maya: Yes… well, R&R doesn't mean 'Rex and Rose'.
Rose: … What?
Maya: It means 'Read and Review'.
Rose: …
Rex: *realisation* Oh… so, uhm… did you… hug Weevil, because you thought he said 'Rex and Rose'?
Rose: … of course! What did you think?
Rex: Nothing…
Rose: Read and Review… how lame.
Maya: Yes…
