Magic of Care-a-lot Part Two
Disclaimer: I do not own: Slayers, Care Bears, Little House on the Prairie, Yugioh, Dragon Quest VIII, etc… on goes the "Where's Waldo?" game of crossovers I always play with my stories! Seriously…no harm intended.
Interlude again: More Distraction…
As they passed a town that was being burned to the ground by undead pirates Zelas finally allowed her self to relax. The Great guardian had trapped them here for some purpose as yet to be revealed but there were worst ways to be a prisoner. Xelloss continued to sing that little song occasionally stopping to comment on some little happy atrocity. He didn't seem worried that they could not teleport away from this place.
"Xelloss, have you tried again," she intoned seriously as the ride approached the end.
"Yes mistress! But the Great Guardian is blocking me every time! The last time I tried he stung me!" he replied still full of good cheer from all the madness and chaos they'd just passed through. Zelas sighed she figured the big guy was probably planning something big on her world and didn't want Demon Lords like her getting in the way. It's likely the others were in similar prisons. She was about to open her mouth and say so when the boat suddenly lurched forward and plunged into the most horrifying scene a mazoku could possibly witness!
It's a world of laughter a world of tears! It's a world of joy and a world of fears! There's so much that we share that it's time we're aware it's a small world after all!
Out of sheer instinct Xelloss and Zelas rose from their seats and began blasting away with their immense powers. Every where little cherubic dolls with their angelic faces and bright colorful outfits were blasted to pieces in the spots where they merrily sang and danced but for every singing, dancing doll they blasted away ten more would take it's place! The sound of their magical blasts and their horrified screams were drowned out by the music that rose in volume the louder they screamed and the more noise their magic made!
It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small, small world!
The boat came to a halt and Zelas tried in vain to make it move again but it would not budge! Xelloss continued to blast away the cheerful dancing dolls but it was no use! He finally collapsed in exhaustion on the boat, closed his eyes and putting his hands to his ears he tried to block out the pain!
It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small, small world!
Zelas kept at it for a while longer but eventually collapsed on top of Xelloss and closing her eyes then putting her arms around him she tried in vain to block out the sounds! Soon enough the boat began to move again. The volume of the music lowered as they continued through the tunnel. They didn't dare open their eyes but the same little ditty continued to play over and over again and shut out its dreadful sound they could not!
It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small, small world! It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small world after all! It's a small, small world!
The music slowly receded and again they found themselves in a more comfortable dark cold place. The skull and crossbones figurine droned out its mazoku welcome greeting: Dead men tell no tales!
Xelloss and Zelas slowly looked up and found themselves again in Isla De Muerta watching Capt. Barbossa and his undead pirate horde pile treasure in their secret moonlit cave. Soon enough they were amidst more pirate frolicking and their more mazoku friendly song began to play:
Drink up me hearties Yo-ho! Yo-ho! Yo-ho! A pirate's life for me!
"Is it over?" Xelloss whispered fearfully as the chaos the undead pirates caused began to re-invigorate him.
"For now…" Zelas replied ominously…
Victoria laughed her head off as she watched Xelloss and Zelas in their predicament. She now lay on her couch in the living room watching the entire goings on from a wall to wall screen controlled by a custom built remote. She adjusted her screen so that it would show all the holodecks on the corners and the situation in Saillune in the center then she checked to make sure her other prisoners were enjoying their accommodations just as much as Xelloss and his master. Judging by their screaming and blasting they were having just as much fun!
"You really do have a sick sense of humor!" her master laughed. He had taken one of his humanoid forms and now and sat on the couch with Victoria's long bare legs comfortably resting on his thighs.
"Yea…Speaking of which…What's with the flannel?" she asked remarking on her master's current choice of look. He had chosen a checkered flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up, jeans, a pair of glasses, a bushy grey beard and bushy grey curly hair added to that he chose a more paunchy couch potato body. This was an unusual choice for her master. He usually went for the Fabio look complete with bare chest and flowing hair. She had never liked those and constantly teased him about them.
"Thought I'd try something new!" he remarked casually. She giggled…
"Going for the geeky couch potato look? What are you going to call this form?" she asked teasingly as she picked up a handheld device from the side table to tap a few commands in it that adjusted the size of the couch so he could curl up next to her.
"I think I'll call it: George!" he replied cheerfully as he pulled her against his chest. She laughed and allowed herself to be pulled in with her back to his chest.
"I like it! It's squishier!" she laughed and they settled in to watch Zelgadis arrive at Amelia's balcony. They oohed as Zelgadis "dropped the bomb" so to speak on Amelia about his feelings. Victoria rolled her eyes…
"What are you doing silly girl! Open your mouth and say something?" she complained. Amelia just sat there dumbfounded and it annoyed Victoria to no end.
"Yea…Zel's gonna lose it soon if she doesn't do something!" George commented seriously.
"Yea! He'll go into chuck mode and there goes all my hard work!" she agreed annoyed. Zel was doing a good job of keeping it together despite her nerve wracking silence but he was going to break soon. She was an expert on broody boys like Zelgadis and she knew you only get one shot at getting them to open up! If Amelia blew this chance the damage control required would be tedious and long! A mission that would be nearly impossible!
"Hang in there Zel!" she cheered hoping something would zap Amelia into action soon…
Ok, what is chuck mode?
Chuck Mode: is the depressed state Charlie Brown is always in because he is always expecting the worst with good reason! Broody boys are often in chuck mode because they always think that the world is out to get them and that it's always going to turn out bad. No happy endings for Charlie Brown! Poor Charlie!
"I got a rock…" – Charlie Brown in "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ok on with the show!
