Seion's characters, (If you don't know who they are, read one of his fics.) are the property of... Seion! -------------------------- (SCENE: It's been two weeks since the trio first haunted the poor Masaki family. The breeders have been cleaned up, very few bipeds roamed the forest, and the only aliens remaining at half strength were the persistent Sectoids. The transport sits in it's normal place, in all it's repaired glory.) [TENCHI]: Well, sorry to see you two go... [SHIKAERU]: Yeah, well... It was fun while it lasted... Thanks's for showing us some hospitality and letting us camp outside've your house! [RAZZIER]: Yes. That was really kind of you folks. [TENCHI]: Ah, it was nothing.. Sorta.. [ARASHI]: Hey did you say "two"? Don't forget me! [RAZZIER]: Ah ah! I don't think so Arashi. There's still a few overlords and Sectoids out there, and we owe it to these folks to get rid of ALL of them. [ARASHI]: WHAT?!!! [RAZZIER]: You be careful, alright? [ARASHI]: WHAAA?!!!!!!!!!!! [SHIKAERU]: Yeah, and watch over the civilians huh? Make sure no kidnappings happen or it'll be your ass! [TENCHI]: Don't feel bad. I don't think those two are going to have any more fun reporting to your "General Mason" either. [ARASHI]: General Mason? We don't have a General Mason!! [SASAMI]: Are you ok Mr. Arashi? [TENCHI]: Hooo boy. [ARASHI]: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -------------- (Meanwhile: A small, but important war rages on in the not-so-distant cosmos...) (Scene: The 17th Terran Battlefleet [Consisting of 2 carriers, 6 battleships, and 3 frigates] tries their luck against the hulking dreadnaught...) (Ships dart to and fro, some getting fried into non-existance, some continuing to fight valiantly, and inside those ships, some crew members rush about, and some crew members float in the cold airless depths of space...) (Suddenly a handful of jet black fighters that survived the initial onslaught swoops from their hiding place among the asteroids.) [SQUAD LEADER]: All fighters, turn off your running lights. We'll try this one with some pirate methods. (The blinking lights mounted on the fighters's wings shut off, leaving only the reflections of the beam-fire to reveal the silent death that approached the henchmen aboard the larger ship.) -------------- (SCENE: Tenchi, Ayeka, and Ryoko stand around a forlorn looking Arashi) [TENCHI]: Why are you so glum? [ARASHI]: They abandoned me! They're probably down in the Carribbeans drinking from coconuts while I'm up here hunting aliens and terrorising you poor folks... [RYOKO]: Oh come on! It's not that bad here! [ARASHI]: Well... [AYEKA]: Besides, I think all of us feel safer with you hunting the aliens than those other two. [TENCHI]: I agree fully... Shikaeru was a bit wild with that flame thrower.. [ARASHI]: [RYOKO]: Yoo hoo... Are you there? [TENCHI]: Oh no... I think he's going to snap again... [ARASHI]: This is what X-COM has become!!.... ................ I quit. [ALL]: YOU WHAT?!!! [TENCHI]: What about those aliens?!!! [AYEKA]: What about your duty?!!! [RYOKO]: What about those dresses that Razz stole from me?!!!! [ARASHI]: ... I said I quit. That's all there is to it... [TENCHI]: Something is definitely wrong... What's gotten into him? [AYEKA]: Yes... Before all this he was a very good soldier! [RYOKO]: Now he seems to be good at pissing and moaning... [TENCHI]: Oh well that's that! I think dinner is- [SASAMI]: Dinner's ready!! [TENCHI]: Er, well let's go! ------------------- Two days later...... ------------------- 6:22 PM Masaki Household After dinner... (SCENE: The Masaki family sits on the couches in one of their rare family gatherings) [SEION]: Hey we still got those aliens living in the forest.. What are we gonna do about them? [KIYONE]: Well, kill them of course! [SEION]: Yeah, but how will we find them? [WASHU]: I can help with that! [SEION]: Alright. [TENCHI]: Now... How do we kill them? [AYEKA&RYOKO]: We could feed them some of Ryoko's/Ayeka's food! [WASHU]: I highly doubt they'll fall for -that- again... Remember, they're not stupid beasts with tiny brains!... They're probably making a plan right now as we are! -------------------- (SCENE: Forest clearing: An overlord-alien with an amazingly small cranium sits, his upper jaw over lapping his lower. It is surrounded by Sectoids who listen intensely) [OVERLORD]: DUHHH HUH! [SECTOID]: Merp! [OVERLORD]: Durrr... [SECTOID 2]: [OVERLORD]: ERRR HUH!!! [SECTOIDS(ALL)]: -------------------- (Back to the Masaki family) [TENCHI]: You're right Washu-chan... Let's get to work!
