Aoi: *Pops up at Jen's shoulder* Trustworthy companions you want? ^.^

Lyn: ^_^;;;; Aoi-chan, do we _really_ have to--

Aoi: *Cuts him off* Yes we do, Seventh! *Poses dramatically* For JUSTICE!!!!

Lyn: ^^;;;; You're Amelia in disguise, aren't you?

Aoi: ŽŽ;;;; Just shut up and play along! I am Tamashii Aoi, aka Malachi.  I am not some clumsy, speech-spouting princess.

Lyn: Hai hai....ne, shouldn't we take Tenkei, too?

Aoi: Naaah, he's hanging out with Rei and Hugh.  Helpin' them take care of the baby and such.  We can handle this ourselves! And if we can't, we can always dig up a Giant Robo cast member or two!

Lyn: *Facefaults* Whatever you say, Aoi-chan....

Aoi: Precisely! Now then, let's roll! ^_^v

[Sikaryan]

Johnny: Let me atīem! Let me atīem! Whooohooo!!!

Roach: Stop it! Hey! Yeouch!! What the hfil do you think you are doing!?! >o<

Johnny: Shaddap! I was about to squish you! Who asked for your opinion anyway?

Roach: Hey! HEY!! I donīt want to get squished, squashed, stomped, burnt, demoleculized, or anything else! I like being among the living!

Johnny: Hah! And you think Iīll spare you? Well, think again! >þ

Maybe a bit too much enthusiasm... ^^;; Stop it, Johnny, let me talk to that roach.

Roach: Thatīs Roach, not "that roach".

Whatever. Well, Roach... you say you donīt want to get exterminated?

Roach: īs right, I donīt wanna get ixter... extor... ekster... dern! I donīt wanna get killed.

Hm... well... whatīd you say if I... *whispers something to Roach*

Roach: TURN OVER TO YOUR SIDE!?!? Oo;;; Why should I do a thing like that?

Uhm.. because Iīd tell Johnny not to fry you?

Roach: Okay okay, itīs a deal! ^^;; Now tell him to take the gun away!

Johnny: *muttermuttermumblemumble*

Just get back to business, will you?

[Jen-chan]

(* Meanwhile, in an ANOTHER tall, large, and big building...y'know, the kind with the big grey clouds and thunder sparkling around..*)

Secretary: Sir, we have wecieved sewveral compwaints! *blink*

Big Old Man Who Must Be The President: Hmm? Oh, complaints. I have no use for complaints. (* Just imagine a man resembling President Shinra looking out the window.*)

Secretary: But.. But.. sir! They are swaying that our pwoduct isn't working! ^^;; (yes, she does speak that way.)

President: "ROACH-B-GONE"? That's exactly the point! *evil cackling laughter* We have AFFILATED with the roaches! Our product isn't supposed to work! *evil and maniacal grin*

Secretary: Sir!! You aren't swerious! O_o

President: Of course I am!! MWAHAHAHA!! MWAHAHAHA!!!!!!! MWAHAHAHA!!!! MWAHAHA!!!!

....

President: *chokes and falls over from laughing so much*

Secretary: *helps him up* Sir! o0( Geez, this guy should lay off the bon-bons..)

President: Thank you. *coughs* ^^;

Secretary: ^_^;;;;

(* So, now with a new corporation in the way that has joined forces with the roaches.. expect things to be a lot harder. ^^;; (or maybe not..) *)

[Jelynne]

*Jelynne and Verity are idly standing around on the street*

Are you sure we're out of the blast zone? *bounces on her toes a little*

Verity: My calculations indicate that the debris from the upcoming explosion will not reach this point. *waves around an abacus*

Right... okay... whatever you say.

*time passes while the two wait for the explosion. Jelynne appears to be oddly... bouncy.  Eventually, she pulls a HUGE book out of her bag, and starts flipping through it*

Verity: *bored and a little whiny* What're you doing? *peers over Jelynne's shoulder*

Hmm? Oh, I'm trying to learn some spells.  *shows Verity the book*

Verity: 'Thee Bigge Booke of Uselesse Magike'?

Yup.  *flip, flip, flip* Ooh, 'Jellyfish Rage'.  Oh wait, you need to be near an ocean for that one...

Verity: -.-; I think you need a different spellbook...

What's wrong with this one? *a single random roach wanders in front of her* Aiee, roach! *mish*

Verity: Okay, so it's useful for one thing.

Eeew, there are roach bits on my book! *starst crying very loudly*

Verity: Just as an idle question, how much coffee have you had today?

*abruptly stops wailing* Umn... *starts counting on her fingers* Five? Or was it six? Okay, I'm pretty sure it was six cups.  Or maybe it was seven...

Verity: Ah, it's all becoming clear to me now...

(An explanatory note: Caffiene has a somewhat unusual effect on Jelynne's brain.  It makes her act even stanger than usual.  As well, her thought processes begin to resemble a Klein bottle.  This effect grows stronger the more caffeine Jelynne has.

Corolly: Jelynne is heavily addicted to coffee, and refuses to switch to decaf.)

*rocking back and forth on her heels* So, when do we get to see the huge explosion?

Verity: Whenever the roaches finish laying the plastique.  *thinks* (Humor her, humor her... don't upset her... bad things happen if you upset her when she's in this state...)

Oh.  They're taking a really long time.  *twiddles her thumbs, then brightens abruptly* Let's blow up something while we wait for them to blow up something!

Verity: Umn... *works it through in her head a couple of times* I don't think that would be a good idea...

You're no fun anymore.  *goes into a sulk*

Verity: *mutters* Note to self - try to hide the coffee until after the invasion...

[Dot-chan]

Falora is busy trying to figure out how to undo Joseph's latest predicament when a nearby phone begins to ring.

Falora (picking it up): Hello? Yes, this is Falora. (her eyes get very, very big) WHO is doing WHAT WHERE?!?

Joseph: Huh? Come again?

Falora: Yes, of course.  I'll be there right away.

Falora hangs up, her expression Most Serious (tm)

Joseph (aside): Something tells me this is Not Good...

Falora: Sorry, Joseph, but something bad's come up.  Maybe we could meet again later?

Joseph: Oh, no you don't! You're not getting out of my sight for a second!

Falora: You can't come along! It's dangerous!

Joseph (smugly): HA! I laugh in the face of danger! BWAHAHAHA--

Falora summons a mallet and flattens Joseph.

Joseph (muffled): Urk! Uncute tomboy...

Falora: Sorry about that, but you're staying right here!

Looking around, Falora finds a shadow of adequate size and disappears into it.

Elsewhere...

Sailor Minerva (surrounded by tons and tons of explosives): Oooooooh boy...

Falora pops out of Minerva's shadow, giving the Senshi quite a scare.

Sailor Minerva: GAAH!

Falora: Eep! Don't hurt me! I'm one of the good guys!

Sailor Minerva: DON'T SCARE PEOPLE LIKE THAT!

Falora (meekly): Sorry! (aside) Kowaii! (Scary!)

Elsewhere, still, Elaine is in big, BIG trouble.

Massive Roach Army (advancing ominously): No...escape...!

Elaine (about to cry): Somebody help! ;_;

MRA: Nowhere to run...nowhere to hide! There is no escape!

Random Roach #1 (whispering): Say, aren't those lines stolen from FF3?

Random Roach #2 (whispering): We're running a bit low of stock dialogue, so...

As the roaches get nearer, Elaine gets desperate.

Elaine (clasping her hands together): Blizzards of the north, I call on your power! (waving her hands at the roaches) ICE!

A few ice cubes drop on the roaches.

Random Roach #3: Hey, that's pretty neat! Could you do that again? My drink's getting cold!

Elaine: Er...O_O; Sensei Falora...where are you? ;_;

Elsewhere yet again (I'm not very creative, am I? ;p), Alex is horrified to find the MRA merrily descrating his beloved poster collections by drawing mustaches on all of the girls.

Alex: MY HAREM! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Alex gets flames in his eyes.  He pulls a HUGE mallet out of nowhere.

Alex (with flames in his eyes): NOW YOU DIE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE!

Alex mows down the roaches in a style remeniscent of those gopher bashing games in the arcades.

MRA: AIEEE!

All the roaches quickly get squashed.

Mysterious Voice: Congratulations! You have beat the highest score!

Alex (flashing V): YEAH! (sees what's left of his posters) My poor girls... ;_;

Mweh.  Heh.  Heh.  So what if nothing's blown up...yet? ;p

Back.
