Edoropolis Emporium

The wind blew wildly that cold fall night.
The moon was covered amongst the various clouds…
Yet it's rays managed to pierce through somehow… as if they would not be denied their place in Little Tokyo.

In the streets, a young woman in a cloak made her way.
There were few people out that late, and she liked it like that.
It allowed her to go un-noticed… Well… Until...

Guido : *Returning from a pizza delivery, looking up at the sky.* Well… so much for the "90 percent% chance of rain we were going to get… *Sighs, stretching his arms out, yawning.*

As if fate determined it… they walked past each other without any issue.

?? : *Looking back at Guido, she mutters under her breath.* Who orders Pizza delivery this late!?

And then promptly walks right into a light post, and drops her bag, spilling out all of it's contents.

?? : *Squeeks in surprise while tumbling down.*

Guido : *Swifter than the fastest car, Guido was at her side, helping the cloaked woman up.* Don't light posts know that beautiful women always have the right-a-way?

?? : Uhh~ Thank you~ *Begins brushing herself off.* … How'd you know I was~

Guido : *Gazing into her eyes… Unable to fully make out her face in the shadow of the cloak… he does what he does best.* Your beauty is so strong, there isn't a true man alive that could miss it…

As he steps closer to her, an audible HONK comes from the ground, startling them both.

Guido : *Leaps back.* What the!? *He bends down, and picks up a bike horn.* What's this… *He looks down at the ground.*

A rubber chicken, a pair of coconut custard pies, a hand buzzer, and a round red ball sit littered around.

Guido : *His eyes look back up at her… he steps closer… getting a better look at her face…* Wait… I remember you…

?? : *Flustered, worried, and quickly thinking of an escape plan.* Ummm… UMMM!!! *Points at Guido's feet.* Get off my bra!!!

Guido : *Quickly looks down at his feet.* What?! WHERE!?!?

With that brief laps in judgment behind him, all Guido saw moments later were stars after being round-house kicked on the back of the head. When he came to, all the items were gone, and he had one heck of a headache.


*** The next day… During Lunch at Little Tokyo High… ***


Camma : *Nibbling on some carrot cake.* And with that, I assume you are now satisfied Kyo?

Kyo : *Munching on a salad.* Kinda… I still don't understand how video games are the cause of my "blackouts." -=Not to mention why YOU are the one whom is always there when I wake up!=- … In any case, thank you for everything. -=Please quit stalking me now!=-

Camma : *Shakes her head.* No…

Kyo : O_O

Camma : *Raises an eyebrow at Kyo's expression.* I was referring to Eyah's question. She currently is poised to put an ice cube down the back of your shirt.

Eyah : *Emerges from behind Kyo, sulking.* You're no fun Camma! *Drops the ice, then sits next to Kyo & Camma.* So… Have either of you seen Romero-Kun yet?

Kyo : Not yet… But we've been busy talking so it's possible I missed him.

At that moment Romero kicked the doors into the lunch room open and jumped up on to a table in the center of the room stepping into two students mashed potatos and gravy holding up a piece of paper...

Romero: *triumphant* BEHOLD Students of LTH!!! FOR YOU ARE IN THE MIST OF GREATNESS!!!!

Student 1: my food dude!!!

Romero: a small price in the fact that I have my learners permit!!! *points to the marching band* HIT IT GUYS!!!!

The Marching band starts playing a long sonnet as Romero walked around and paraded his slip. after they where done he hopped back onto the same table knocking over the drinks of the same students

Student 2: My Beer! err....I mean...Milk!!! yeah MY MILK!!!! *looks around*

Romero: but that's not all....all the way from Seattle Washington.....my right spleen in crime....Sammy...*points at the marching band as they give a drum roll and a Male Rabbit with blue eyes and brown fur walks into the lunchroom

Romero: And Ladies....this is your lucky day....Sammy is single and i've been teaching him my swave moves....so act fast cause he's a rabbit on Fire!!

The whole class body turns and watches the rabbit intently, and Romero takes a seat next to Kyo

Romero: hehehe....hey Kyo...so...can i give you a ride after class bro? *looks at Camma* hey you need a ride to the libary? *looks out at Eyah* heheh...i know a cool spot that you can see the city at night....

Samuel entered the lunch room to the gazes of what must have been every student within hearing range of Romero (which may have well been the whole lunch room) and stopping cold in his tracks...

Samuel: *annoyed expression* Did he honestly have to announce it to everyone!!?

Samuel trooped his way through the dissipating glares and hopped into the other seat next to Romero, watching his inane antics as he flashed about his new piece of plastic...

Samuel: Dude...it's just a permit. Besides, you can't drive ANYONE without another driver in the car...*opens a sack lunch* ...sometimes, I swear...*shakes head and goes about his lunch*

*Blackcat entered the lunch room, looking a bit depressed... not that anyone cared...

*Blackcat looks around, noticing the new guy "Just great, another crazy bunny, wait, he is not a girl and looks too young to be the Agent, he cant be from those crazy ninja bunnies girl" he thinks

"What the hell I am doing here anyway? As far as I remenber I take lunch early at home!"

*FG the fox girl then enters the lunch room, and buys a bottle of water, then sits in an empty table...

Dash (who was already at the table when the fiasco started): Sammy, Romero always takes anything and blows it WAY out or proportion. Heck, Im just glad he wasnt there when I asked my gf out when I went home last summer. Im just glad I got my license as soon as I got to LT...although having to drive Grams' minivan isnt the most glorious thing in the world...

Panzer waltzes into the lunch room finishing a conversation with his arm-bound computer AI; Leon.

Panzer: "...and then he says: I gotta stop eating this caramel and put some pants on!!!"

Leon: "Ha Ha!! I'm sure they'll love to hear that one."

Panzer sits at the table with everyone else.

Panzer: "Hey, guys and gals. Wanna hear a joke?"

Everyone: NO!!!

Panzer regards Leon again: "You mock me."

*Jack hears Panzer, buys a milk carton and then sits in the same table as Farah (FG)

FG: So, we got any news for school newspaper so far?

Jack: Not for now... but I bet we will soon get something... aren't you supposed to try to hit on Dash?

FG: He has a girlfriend far away, but my hopes are up, long distance relationships almost never work in the long run, besides I got a plan...

Jack: Whatever...

*Jack starts to drink his milk and looks at Dash with angry eyes...

Panzer: So... anyone seen Shenna around? Is she not coming to lunch or what?

Kyo :  *Had stopped eating while watching the entire spectacle occur in front of his eyes.* … Eguhuh?

Camma : *Lightly bows towards Romero.* Thank you no Romero. The library is of no interest to me. Besides, I usually get a ride from Sheena on her Vespa if the distance is too far for walking.

Eyah : *Her eyes sparkle as she watches Romero come in.* -=Disrupting the lunch hour for self gloating! Maybe I am rubbing off on him!=- *She squeals, tightly hugging Romero.*

* After everyone else had come in and got seated... *

Kyo :*Looks over at Dash, swallowing his food.* Don't sweat it dude. I always remember an old movie I liked watching back in the U.S. when your Grams' minivan backfires. ^_^

Camma : *Looks towards Panzer.* I cannot say I have Panzer. Last I checked she was in the lavatory. I am surprised she has not shown up yet, she stated she had a special surprise for you…

As if on cue, Panzer felt his vision go dark as an arm wrapped around his eyes, while a hand began playfully drilling into his noggin.

Sheena : Sheena's got'im!


*** Meanwhile… In the School's AV room. ***

Ms. Anari : *Shuffling equipment around.* Uggg! This is so stupid! *Leans against a TV, sighing.* Why the heck did we get stuck with his MerryBerry?

Mrs. Mayberry : *Sighs* Look, you drew the short straw, and that's that. The more you bring it up, the longer this job'll take. … And don't call me that here at school.

Ms. Anari : Ok then, let me try another question. WHY are we doing this again? I was sleeping while Tio was talking again.

Mrs. Mayberry : *Sighs* Tio knew you'd say that… Check your pocket.

Ms. Anari appeared a little confused as she stuck her hand into her pocket, and pulled out a signed note.

" Ms. Anari, you're doing this because I said so.  - Principal Tio
P.S : The faster you get done, the less TV time you get once we turn these things on.
P.S.S : Yes… You're going to be on School TV until the student body is ready to pick up the task."

Ms. Anari : O_O …. *Drops the note.*

Mrs. Mayberry : *Looking over at Anari, suppressing a snicker.* -= Looks like I win the bet. It took her 8 seconds to drop the note.=-

GHAAA!!!

Panzer writhed in his place on the lunch table's seat. He lacked the muscle strength to get out of Sheena's grip. But he reminded himself that he and his fellow kind weren't all muscle; so he activated his mechanical defenses. His head popped out of Sheena's arms and curled into his chest as his shell folded over in segments around the rest of his limbs, forming a tight sphere. He then did a reverse spin-dash off the seat and under Sheena's legs, popping back up behind her. He wrapped his left arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him, and waved a pack of Twizzlers in front of her face.

"These are for you, lovely"

He finished his stunt with a quick kiss on her cheek.

Dash: yeah...Ive been meaning to get that looked at...reminds me of Ashley back in the states though...(sighs) (sees Panzer with Sheena) *chuckles* looks like armadillo boy is becoming quite the charmer dont you think?

Kyo : *Watching Sheena & Panzer's exchange.* Hmm... Well... I guess he's kinda a charmer... -=Just as long as she doesn't think Panzer was looking up her skirt...=-

Sheena : Dooohhh~ *Puffs up her cheeks, turning slightly red.* Sheena almost had you too! *Sighs.* Oh well... At least you didn't see the cake Sheena put in front of you as a surprise.

Sure enough... There was a large carrot cake sitting on the table where Panzer used to be sitting...

Kyo : O_O... *Looks at Dash & Romero.* Did either of you see how she did that?

Samuel: See what now? *takes a sip of drink* I wasn't really paying attention. *sniffs* Do I smell carrot cake?

And sure enough, there was that carrot cake mentioned earlier...which Samuel couldn't keep his eye off of for some (obvious) reason. He tried his best to look away but only ended up looking like his eyes were twitching between center and off to the side and fidgeting around a little in his seat...

Samuel: *drool* ...

Romero: The wha- *sees the Cake* THE CAKE IS A LIE!!! *slams his fist onto the table sending the cake high into the air and onto his head* GAH!!! I hate cake!!!

Romero get's up and runs to the restroom to clean himself of the carrot cake leaving his food and paper on the table along with a purple gift wrapped box with eyah's name on it

Dash: that guy embarrasses me sometimes...(shakes his head) So Sammy...howd you end up here in Little Tokyo?

Samuel: *watching Romero go* Nuuuuuuuu...not the cake...*T_T*

Samuel shook his head to clear it before turning to Dash and trying to block all thoughts of Romero's latest 'incident'.

Samuel: Um...why I'm here? ...well, my Dad got a transfer over here...and so we just packed up and tagged along with him. Something about keeping the Family unit together...

Dash: makes sense...I moved in with my Grams (the one who's minivan I drive) along with my two sisters after our parents mysteriously died...we've been here for almost two years...we moved not too long after my 16th birthday (and got my license)

Jack: That idiot does something funny with a cake, and I dont have my camera with me!

FG: I used my cellphone to take pics, but the quality sucks, oh well, maybe next time...

Panzer sits back down, this time with Sheena next to him.

Panzer: "Am I the only one here who is confused as to the reason of Romero's outburst?"

He notices the purple box Romero left. "Hey, what's this? Eyah, it's got your name on it."

Dash sees the gift too

Dash: yeah...I wonder what it is? (motions for Eyah to come over as well)

Eyah : *Scoots over into the seat where Romero was, lightly poking at the box.* Hmm... *Picks it up, and starts twirling it around, and shaking it...* It's not ticking... T_T I'm disappointed... *Begins delicately opening the box, taking care to not tear the paper wrapping.*

*** Meanwhile... ***

Sheena : *Standing outside the men's bathroom entrance with a foam mallet in her hands... Her eyes on fire with fury.* It took Sheena 6 hours to bake that cake...

*Farah Gail the fox-girl, mostly know as FG looks at Sheena with a grin in her face...
 
"Hey Sheena!, would you like to join a club?"
 
*FG has lots of pamphlets in her hand that say "Join the journalism club today"

*Meanwhile back at the lunch room...

Jack: So FG... uh? Where the hell is she? 

Inside the box Eyah found three things one was a poster of the Rude Noise with three signatures on it and the other was golden rubber clown nose. The third item was a note,

"Hope ya like the gifts Eyah sorry i couldn't do better.....

P.S there's only 3 signatures cause Ronnie didn't want to sign....

P.P.S......he's a jerk.....

P.P.P.S. Please don't wear the Clown nose around me....it's for you but i really....REALLY hate clowns....

P.P.P.P.S. And what's with Airline food ?....eeewww...."


Meanwhile Romes was just coming out of the restroom all clean when he saw Sheena looking menecingly at him clutching the foam mallet

Romero: Hehe...Your dressed up like that Amy Character Sheena? I didn't know you where into those kind of games...

Sheena : Sheena doesn't know what you're talking about... but know this... *She waves the foam mallet around, pointing it at Romero.* Sheena will have her r~

Before Sheena could finish her sentence, Ms. Anari grabbed both her and Romero by the hands.

Ms. Anari : *Rushing, shoving students aside while pulling Romero and Sheena.* No time for your lovers quarrel you to. You're both coming with me to the A/V room.

Sheena : *Trying to resist, but unable to even put a dent in Anari's stride.* ERRR! Stop! Sheena needs to finish Sheena's sentence and declare~

Ms. Anari : *Turns her head.* Zip it! We'll be done soon enough...

*** A few minutes later... ***

Ms. Anari : *Sitting at a make-shift desk in front of a camera, rustling some papers.* And so... that's why you two are going to help me with this. *Smiles.* Sheena on camera, and Romero holding up my queue cards and providing sound effects!

Sheena : *Manning an old looking TV Camera.* Sheena still doesn't want to do this...

Ms. Anari : *Sighs.* Ok then... Let's look at it this way. It's either this, or you both get to do a presentation in class tomorrow on various news casts in French, English, Spanish, and Canadian.

*** Back in the lunch room... ***

The school announcement bell chimes.

"Attention students. For something a little different, we're going to start playing a little something every lunch hour for your enjoyment. The AV Club has gotten it's hands on some old broadcasting equipment from an anonymous donator. For this month, we're going to have daily school news reported on by Ms. Anari. Enjoy!"

With the end of that announcement, a bit of silence fell over the cafeteria as some students thought about it...

Kyo : ... Huh... *Gathers his utensils and lunch box.* I'm going to head to the library. Thankfully there are no TVs there. ^^;

Eyah : *Looking back towards the bathrooms... watching for Romero, beginning to tap her foot impatiently.* Where is he!? I need to thank him so I can go to the Library too!

Camma : If the amount of time Sheena spent making that cake is any indication of her anger level towards Romero at the moment, I think it's safe to assume he's currently hanging from a windowsill by the elastic of his undergarments at the moment.

Samuel: That's less than what he deserves for destroying a perfectly good carrot cake. *takes a sip of drink* But I guess someone's gonna have to go find him and pull him down from wherever he's hanging. That is, assuming he didn't find a way to sneak out of the bathroom through a window or something...

Dash slips out and heads to the principal's office so he can sign out and go pick up his check at the Pizza Cat owned by General Catton (he and Romero still work there after school)

Dash: thank you Mrs. Atsuka (the secretary). I'll be back in about 45 minutes

So with that Dash slung his skates over his shoulder and headed outside to put them on

To Panzer's concern, he was waiting for Sheena to return so he could thank her for the cake.

He was just about to get up from the table to find her when the announcement came on.

Panzer: "Oh, come on. A news update at lunch hour? Can't they do this in the morning? I don't wanna hear this crap when I'm eating."

Romero: *whining* But I don't wanna do this crap when I can be eating. Why not grab one of the extra non-named Students that are just filler anyways? *sets the cards down and walks over to the stage and takes a seat next To Anari* Sound effects are childs play from me...your looking at the former beatbox/sound effect champion...but what charming goregous teacher like you needs is a equal handsome male face to help balance things out *puts hand to Chin in a thinker poise* some one with a record of wooing the females around here and melting hearts better then their older brother around little Tokyo...What you need.....is an Anchovy *winks at Mrs. Anari with a smile*

*Jack is now at the library with an angry look "Now, no news, and FG is nowhere to be found, plus school now has a TV broadcast! How the hell is the newspaper going to keep going?" 
 
*FG appears behind Jack "Hey" she whispers to his ear making him jump 
 
"AHHH!" he shouts scared 
 
"Shh, silence in the library" she whispers 
 
"Ah sorry" he whispers "What the hell where you doing?" 
 
"I was giving away pamphlets about joining the journalism club, so we get more help" she grins 
 
"And why do you think people will join?! 
 
"Cause is only a few hours, and club members are excused of working on this TV thing" 
 
"Are you sure about that?" he asks 
 
"Yeah, I mean Anari totally ignored me and that, besides we are kind of supposed to compete, so no student can be working on the two, you know?"

"And how we are going to compete with TV?" Jack asks

"Well, I got that bunny-girls club to make comic strip, and a crusigram, and a funny pic of the week and that"

Just then the "All girls club", or AGC, five of those bunny girls that became students of the school some time ago, was walking in the hallway...

Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl: Hikari, why the hell did we join the school newspaper?

Hikari, the Boss assistant: Well Boss, The other girls and I... well... we wanted to do something besides being you know... what we do again?

Rine: Fine!, but I wont draw, ok?

Hikari: Thanks Boss!

Farah Gail: Aka FG the Fox girl, she is a secret agent infiltrated in the school, she loves Dash, but secret agent stuff usually gets in the way. We haven't see her much cause she was sick, but now she is heathy again, will this turn into some kind of soap opera? Yo can bet on it baby!
 
Jack Daniel Black: He is a small black cat working at the school newspaper, trying to uncover the truth behind all the crazy stuff going in Little Tokyo High (And he also wants to blame Dash for all of it)

*** In the broadcasting room... ***

Both Ms. Anari and Sheena look at Romero... Each has an eyebrow raised to match their un-amused looks.

Ms. Anari : *Looks down at her watch, then sighs.* Well... until we can find the man of my dreams, looks like we're stuck with you. Sheena! Hit the switch!

Sheena : *Looks around, finding a big switch mounted on a box by her feet.* ... Umm... Ok!

With a swift kick, the switch is pounded into the on position. The equipment shoots out a few sparks, and the scent of ozone could be smelled throughout the room.
The big red light above the camera brightly shone red, and thus....

Ms. Anari : *Shrieks in terror.* NO! I'm not ready for this yet! *She dives for the floor behind Romero.*


*** Back in the cafeteria ... ***

Camma : *Finishing cleaning off her part of the table, watching the ensuing chaos going on on the TV.* It appears as though the news cast contains little news, and Romero appears un-harmed. *She turns to Panzer.* I fail to see how this is supposed to benefit the student population in the school.

Eyah : *Laughing, slapping the table.* Oh come on! You've both got to admit that watching Anari dive for cover behind my Romero-kun is priceless!


*** Meanwhile... In classroom 38-B on the other side of the campus... ***

Most of the students had become bored with the expose on the screen...
It was great for a quick laugh... but now it was just bland...

Male Student 1 : Ugg... So this is what our parents are paying for eh?

Male Student 2 : Your parents are paying for this?! I thought this was a public institution!

Male Student 1 : *Bops student 2.* I'm talking about when they buy baked goods from school fund raisers you dolt!

Female Student 1 : Hey! No need to get violent!


Had the students been paying attention... They may have noticed the scenery begin to morph around them...
Things were beginning to warp in the classroom... By the time it was noticed...

Female Student 1 : *Screams pointing at the window.* Hey! What's going on here!?!

The windows looked like the face of a buck-toothed badger... the changes hadn't stopped there though...
The other parts of the room had taken on the appearance of a warped fun house... with most of the fun replaced with wierd...
The doors looked like underpants, the desks appeared to be now made of cheese and marshmallows, and an Afro-ed figure now stood behind the teacher's desk...

?? : Well well now... I seem to have found some students whom are ripe for the picking... *Slowly begins turning around.* So... Which one of you... *Twirls around, taking aim at the students with a bazooka-looking device.* Is gonna get it first!?

*** In the library... ***

Kyo : *Pulling down a book...* -=Ah... The sound of silence...=-

The sound was short lived though, after a loud pair of screams could be heard running by the library down the hallway...

Kyo : ... *Sighs.* I'd better follow the screaming...

   
*Jack and FG followed Kyo who was following the screaming... that looked like news after all!
 
Jack: Ok, can you get a Camera this time?
 
FG: Yeah is in my locker, and if that fails, I go a backup one in the school basement!
 
Jack: Why the hell you have stuff in the school basement?
 
FG: Hey, want me to take pics or not?
 
Jack: Fine, now hurry!
 
*So Jack continued after Kyo while FG went for her Camera... 

Dash: Thanks General...Im closing tonight right (responds) Ok, I'll see you tonight!

Dash was completely unaware of the chaos that was taking place inside the school because it was payday and he wanted to make sure he got his check so he could get Kia's birthday present (her birthday was the day after tomorrow)

Dash: What a perfect day...and I cant wait to talk to Ashley tonight...

WIth that he looks at his watch...

Dash: OOH! I better hurry...I told Mrs Atsuka Id be back in 45 minutes...

With that he took a speed skater's stance and raced back toward the school...when he arrived...

Dash: something doesnt feel right..I better get home and tell Grams...

So instead of heading into school, he turns around and quickly skates back to his house to tell his grandmother about his intuition...

With a Glint in Romero's eye he turned to Ms. Anri and set her up  behind the makeshift desk to do the news

Romero: Good afternoon lunch break fellow students of LTH, I'm your Anchorcat Romero Anchovy and this is Mrs. Anari...on Todays top news...Romero, the living legend, but first....as many of you have seen we have a new student body to the LTH community a one Samuel, or if you you call him by his street name Sammy, or more notoiously The big bopper...Who is this student? where did he come from? is he here to try to take the females here and replace them with non-dairy Yogurt? Your Archorcat will be on the case bringing you updates on Sammy, "Terror or...um....not....Terror" *ahem* All of you are fimilar with Panzer Howell but I have the detailed behind's the Scenes story that will only be broadcasted here live watch as I have a indepth report with the only Armadillo in School.....and be amazed as he makes a moving speech.....In other news Principal Tio was spotted today with what could only be described as a bald spot as local students took note one quoted, "It was like looking into a freaky parrelel universe...."

And thus Romeo was on a roll

Samuel: *jaw dropped as far as it would go* ...this isn't happening...

Samuel hit his head to the lunch table, tugging at his ears trying to ignore what was coming across the intercom, praying that this was all just one terrible dream and he was only going to wake up at any second. Unfortunately, no respite came for him and so he went with the next best thing and started to pretend he didn't exist...

Samuel: If I ever get my hands on that cat...*tugs harder on his ears*

Panzer also was terrified with what Romero was discussing on the screen.

Panzer: "I've had enough of this! Leon cut the feed."

Leon: "I can't"

Panzer: 'Why not!!?"

Leon: "Cause this is hilarious!!!"  :D

Panzer:  :/

Just then he feels a poke on his back. Panzer turns to find one of the first-year students, a tiny bull-dog kid with big round glasses that make his eyes look bubbly, pointing a shoulder mounted camera at his face.

Panzer: "...and what's this about?"

kid: "for you're speech mister Howell. Everyone is dying to know what you have to say."

Panzer stands up from the table and storms out of the lunch room, intent on finding Romero.

...with the bulldog kid following quietly behind of course.

Romero was fully into the news idea now having someone come upon a blue Suit he had his helmet off and a combover like a real news caster

Romeo: thank you Otto for the up to date hallway traffic check....In other news today sources seem to indicate that Class Representive Kyo Kensabre isn't indeed a fox. Sources have pegged him as either a mutated Wombat or a mongoose. *turns to face another Camera* Seems as though there's love going on in the Nurses Office as Nurse Arisa was seen early this morning locking lips with the School's head Principle Tio....Indeed it was a long Lip locking fest that broke even the worlds record...*turns again* Local Student Dash St. Pierre commersals seems to be doing well local entertainment has even decided to give him rolls in movies the latest being the main lead in "Trouble in Little Tokyo"..In Fashon it seems that Camma Hadski is setting a trend and burning up the halls with her look that Sources say is imported from Austraila...In the Lunch room Report seems like the there isn't that much in the "mystery meat" that Students haven't guessed.....that's right....Your ALL Right in what ever you guessed was in it

*** Meanwhile... In the hallways... ***

Kyo : *Jogging to catch up with the screaming students.* For pete's sake!! *Huff~ Huff~* Slow down you guys!!!

Female Student 1 : *Turns her head around, shouting.* I'M A GIRL!!! *Looks forward and continues screaming.*

Kyo :  Oh come on! No running in the hallways you two!!!


*** Meanwhile... In the LTH Main Office... ***

Principal Tio : *Sitting in his office, listening to the radio, working on some paperwork.* ... Hmm...

Suddenly... there is some commotion outside of his small room.
With a loud BANG! the door burst open, with two students out of breath, and babbling incoherently.

Principal Tio : *Puts his pen down on the desk, standing up.* Woah, woah, settle~

The students continue babbling incoherently...

Principal Tio : *His voice raises a little higher.* Settle~

The students continue to~

Principal Tio : *Lets out a high-pitched whistle, followed by a commanding boom in his voice.* SETTLE!

Both students stop talking at once, still breathing heavily.

Principal Tio : *Points to the girl.* Miss? Are you alright?

Female Student 1 : Yes! ... No! ... I... Sir there was a man with a bazooka in our classroom!

Principal Tio : *Raises an eye-brou.* ... A man... With a bazooka?

Male Student 2 : Dude~ It's no lie! Steve, tell 'im... *Looks behind him.* Steve? Where's Steve!? *Looks at the girl.* Wasn't he behind you?!

Female Student 1 : Behind me!? I thought he was in front of you!!

Principal Tio : *Sighs, picking up his phone.* Look... Just relax here in the office for a moment. *Dials a number, as soon as the other end picks up he holds the receiver away from his ear due to the laughter.* COACH! *The laughter stops.* Go to classroom 38-B and take a look around would you? *A few muffled words along with some chuckles could be heard before the other end clicked.* ... *Hangs up the phone.* ... Excuse me for a moment. *Turns on the TV in his room, tuning it into the newscast.*

Dash hurried to the house and burst through the front door...

Dash: GRAMS! GRAMS! I THINK THERE IS A PROBLEM AT SCHOOL!
Grams: calm down, honey...take a few deep breaths and tell me all about it.
Dash: (does as he is told) Grams. I had to leave school and gt something from General Catton and as I was heading back I had a bad feeling that someone was going to take it over...
Grams: Dash, now that school has problems I know but I dont think anyone...(stops for a moment and thinks) well, let's check it out...why dont you go ahead and armor up  and we can go check it out
Dash: Grams...how did you know about...
Grams: I have a little something to tell you about later hon...
Dash: Ok...(pulls out his umbrella then looks around to make sure Jack and his cronies didnt sneak out of the school and rig the house) BY THE POWER OF LIGHT! (Dash transforms into his battle armor)
Grams: you go ahead...I'll meet you there (Dash nods and heads out)

Grams looked around and made sure the coast was clear

Grams: Amy and Kia arent quite ready to use their abilities just yet...maybe one day...Good thing Mrs Kawakami was able to watch them on short notice...BY THE POWER OF THE G REAT FIRES FROM WITHIN MT COOCHI! (Grams' body turns into molten lava and when it hardens, it breaks apart, leaving red, yellow and orange armor...she also appears a lot younger and then she pulls on her helmet...

Grams: I hoped Id never have to do this again...for the grandchildren's sake...

With that she raced out the open door and headed for LTHS

Panzer tried to make a show of opening the door to the A/V room as dramatic as possible. The door swung heavily inward without so much as a creak. Without the sudden slam he was aiming for, he failed to get the attention of anyone in the room.

He cleared his throat: "Ms Anariiiiiiiiiiii... " his voice trailed off just as he noticed Shenna manning the camera.

He started over: "Mr Anari," now all eyes were on him, "I don't know about your intentions with this broadcast, whatever it may be, but I find it rather embarrassing.  I am asking you kindly to end it, and to reconsider your approach to it. Maybe..." eyes Romero at the table, "maybe try a different anchorman."

Romero: ANCHORCAT!!!! *clears his throat and motions for the camera to follow him* All i'm doing is giving the School what they want and that's hard hitting News...Im sure you'd like to know who Sheena was kissing last period....or who thought your locker was a toilet and barfed in it....*puts an arm around Panzer and the Camera gets closer* I'm just a honest Anchorcat...trying to bring you the vital information you need for your everyday life....*walks with panzer past an open chest from a old school play* I can understand why your upset Mr. Howell...but...*pushes him in* This is for the school! *slams it shut then turns back to the camera* Ahem....we'll return later on to see if the Daredevil Armadillo can escape out of the Chest before he runs out of air!!

Romeo went back to his seat to continue the news

Great Panzer thinks to himself, first, he ruins a cake made specially for me, then he embarrasses me on school television, and now THIS.

"YOU'RE A REAL NICE FRIEND, ROMERO, YOU KNOW THAT?" Panzer said aloud.

"Leon, why do I always have to deal with such... egos?"

Leon: "I take that as more of a rhetorical question; or do you really want an answer?"

Panzer: "Nevermind."

"Hey is there anything you can do to help me outta here?"

Leon:  "Little armoured one, there isn't a day that goes by that I do not yearn for the power over wooden chests. But maybe Ms. Anari can help you."

Leon hadn't finished his last statement before Panzer started knocking from within the chest. "Ms. Anari, is this really the kind of action you approve of? You have me released right now, or I'll have you reported to your teachers union!!!"

Leon: "Now Panzer, there's no need to be abrasive about it."

Panzer: "This is exactly why our public school system is failing."

Bulldog Kid: "So you're ready to make your speech about it, then?"

Panzer: "How did you get in here?"

Bulldog Kid: "I'm very nimble, sir."

Meanwhile, a certain rabbit kid makes his way through the halls, having decided that he too should confront Romero for his mention...unfortunately, in taking his time deciding this he had gotten up a bit too late and has since lost track of Panzer...or ANY sense of direction for that matter...

Samuel: Great, joy of going to a new school...not knowing where the heck you are! *keeps walking down random hallways* If I keep walking, I'll eventually get SOMEWHERE...or at least find someone who can point me to the room where this madness is taking place!

The rabbit kid keeps his vigor, moving quickly down hallway after hallway...with absolutely no luck in his search...

Samuel: Gah!!? Where the heck am I now!? I don't recognize any of this...and I haven't seen ANYONE! What kind of school is this!? Is there even a map to this place? *keeps moving one foot in front of the other...futily...*

   
*Samuel the bunny kid almost crashes with a group of five bunny girls students, know as the "All girls club", or AGC...
 
Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl: Hey! where do you think you are going boy?
 
Hikari, the Boss assistant: Well Boss, he is new, maybe he is lost?
 
Rine: Yeah maybe...
 
Sarah, the bunny girl with green eyes: You know what? He is cute!
 
Jenny, the blonde bunny girl: Sarah!, you say that about every bunny boy you see!
 
Ann, the bunny girl with glasses, and black hair tied in a ponytail: Hey kid, do you need help or something?

*** In the LTH Main Office... ***

Principal Tio : ... *Turns off the TV.* ... Students, please excuse me for a moment.

Principal Tio calmly leaves the office, then enters into a dead run for the A/V room, pulling out his cell phone as he dashes away...


*** In the rebuilt LTH U.N.I.D.C. mainframe room... ***

Mrs. Efields : *Typing away on a console connected to some new servers.* Dum dum de dum...

Next to the console, her cell phone begins ringing.

Mrs. Efields : *Stops typing, and answers the phone.* Yes Amoto, what's up?

After a moment, she begins typing away on the keyboard quickly, eyes darting back and forth over the screen.

Mrs. Efields : *Cheerfully.* Done! The video feeds are cut off, and I'm continuing to record the rest of the feed for the moment. Happy hunting chief! *Clicks the phone shut, and continues typing where she left off.*


*** Meanwhile... Back in the A/V Room... ***

Ms. Anari : *Still frozen stiff on camera...* I... err... umm... In... I do tricks! I mean... *Shakes her head, trying to clear her thoughts.* Sheena! Turn off the camera! I mean... I... *She grabs a bag that she had setting down by her feet, and attempts to leave.* I've got to go... *As she begins stumbling out the door, she crashes into Principal Tio, falling backwards into the room, tripping over the trunk Panzer was in.* AIEEEE!!!!

The rest of the scene played out in slow motion... And Sheena caught it all...
Both Anari and Principal Tio flew over the trunk, crashing on the other side.
The trunk lid popped open from Panzer forcing it open, and the bump from the falling duo.
Confetti shot into the air as he emerged, followed by the sound of a bicycle horn tooting twice.

Principal Tio : *Covered in confetti.* Ms. Hadski... Turn the camera off...

Sheena : Yes sir! *Kicks the switch, turning off the broadcast... or what was left of it.*


*** Meanwhile... ***

Coach Miniac : *Wiping tears from his eyes as he enters Classroom 38-B.* Oy... That was good. I didn't know ol' Tio was into comedy hour over lunch!

As he walked inside the room and surveyed the scene, he saw nothing out of the ordinary. The entire room looked normal as it should... except...

Coach Miniac : What the heck!? *Dashes across the room.*

Plastered against a wall was the missing student, Steve. He was covered in Coconut Custard Pie filling with a mixture of whipped cream and pie crust mashed in.
His eyes were wide open... And he only said one thing as Coach Miniac worked to get him down...

Male Student 1 (Steve) : Blub... blub blub... blub blub... blub... blub blub blub.... blub....

Samuel looked at the five bunny girls with a bit of scrutiny, adjusting his glasses and sizing up each one. When he was satisfied with his account, he final opened his mouth to speak.

Samuel: I'm just looking for...wherever that broadcast thing in the cafeteria was coming from. You wouldn't happen to know where that is, would you?

Samuel fidgeted a little, not sure how exactly these five would act and watching their motions attentively, putting himself a little on edge...

   
Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl: Hikari, you where right, he is new, got an extra map to give to him? 
 
Hikari, the Boss assistant: Yes Boss, here you have kid... 
 
*Hikari gives a map to Samuel, it was in Japanese but since this was a Japanese show the bunny boy was able to read it... 
 
*Meanwhile, FG had finally got her camera and was surprised to know things seemed to be over... 
 
Farah Gail: What? How can that Afro guy be gone? 
 
Jack: I don't know, must be a brothers thing... maybe he is ghost from the eighties or something, or he is just behind someone...

Farah: And now what the hell are we going to put on the cover?
 
Jack: I have no clue, maybe you could interview Dash?
 
Farah: Don't you hate him?
 
Jack: Yeah, but is easier to fall the higher you are so... I think making him even more famous would work for my plans on him.

Farah: Plans on him?

Jack: Lets just say that after I am done, villains AND HEROES will think twice before making a mess of this school again...

Romero: HEY!!! I was just about to get to the part where i told everyone Sammy's dark secret that he's really a blood thristy were-mongoose that only changes at the taste of carrot cake! I have hard hitting new's that the school needs to know! Like why all the glue and green crayons keep dissappering from the arts room....and why Coach is afraid of peaches! This is an out rage!!!!!! You can't stop the news!!!! IT'S THE STUDENTS RIGHT TO KNOW EVERYTHING!!!!!

Romero in a huff stormed out of the A/V room and into the hallway quickly booking it down the hall and into what he thought was a empty class room

Romero: Phew.....made it....Just gotta lay low so Tio won't bust my buns on that....dunno what happened back there....must have been the camera....I wonder if Eyah's thinking about me....hehehehehe.....*tries to turn the knob on the door but finds it's locked* wait a min.....*tries pulling it* NO!!!! NO!!!!! NOOOO!!!!

And thus...the Achorcat was stuck in a room banging on the door to be let out

Dash arrives at the school in full battle armor as things started to calm down after the "news broadcast" was ended.

Dash: well I better investigate and find out if anything out of the ordinary happened...

So with that he made his way to talk to Principal Tio

(OOC: Dash's knowledge of principal Tio's whereabouts is an interesting plothole...)

Samuel: *looks at the map, turning it over and around as if to inspect it for booby-traps* Um...yeah, this is good. Erm...thanks, I guess. I...suppose I'll be on my way then...if you don't mind. *turns to walk the other way and begins his departure*

(OOC: a fair point...fixing momentarily)

Dash made his way through the school cutting through the throngs of people in the hallways...

Dash (thinking): I dont know what happened but whatever it is...Im gonna try to fix it)

Unbeknownst to him, his grandmother was also making her way through the halls of LTHS hoping to get to the bottom of why Dash was acting the way he was when he came home...

Panzer rolled out of a pile of confetti. He stood up brushing more off his legs. I looked and saw Romero was no longer in the room.

Panzer: "Hey, where did that anchorcat run off to?"

He took a look at those who were still in the room. "Well, at least that horrid broadcast is over."

He noticed the look of concern from Principal Tio: "But something tells me something else is up."

(Post is forthcoming tomorrow... Err... Later on today. O_o)

Principal Tio : *Helps Ms. Anari up as he slowly gets up himself.* At the moment Mr. Howel this is my primary concern. Coach Miniac is handling the other situation as we speak. *Looks over at Panzer.* Did Mr. Anchovey have any of those "X-treme" energy drinks over the lunch hour before he was deputized into doing this broadcast?

Ms. Anari : *Tries slinking away with her bag while Principal Tio's gaze is diverted.*


*** Meanwhile... Inside the Room Romero locked himself into... ***

Eyah : *Sitting on a chair in the room, watching Romero pound on the door, containing her giggles.* -= He's kinda cute when he's all panicky & stuff! =- *She concentrates on making a straight face, clears her throat, and begins clapping lightly.* Bravo my dear, bravo! You're my shining news man in ... a lame suit!


*** Meanwhile... Outside the LTH Main Office... ***

Kyo : *Walking back towards the Library.* Oy... I wonder what's going to happen to Ms. Anari once Principal Tio gets done with her? I've never seen him bolt out of the office as fast as he did there.

*As he continued on, he noticed Coach Miniac walking down the hall with a student on his shoulder. The back half of the student was dry, while the front half was covered in some kind of goo that smelled like coconut and custard.*

Coach Miniac : *Grumbling.* Hey! Stop squirmin! I swear you kids... Who brings a pie launcher to school!? You're gonna hit the showers, then you and your friends are in trouble... dude.

"EEYYAAH??" Romero quickly turns around after almost having a heart attack not thinking she'd be in the same room.

"W-what are you doing here?" Romero pondered for a bit, "Don't tell me your stuck in here too...."

Romero sits down next to her his heart beat slowing down but still going at a rapid rate.

"S-so did you get the gifts i got you?" he said nervously, "I hope Sammy didn't take them...."

Eyah : Well my dear... I figured that you'd end up somewhere close to the Video Room. ... That... and my Cell Phone was running dead so I needed an outlet quick. *Lifts up her phone which is tethered to the wall outlet.* As for your gifts, thank you~! <3 The nose is just my size, how'd you know?

*** Meanwhile... In the hallways... ***

Sheena : *Walking with Panzer.* Sheena needs to find her mallet... Still need to whomp Romero when he's found. *She looks over at Panzer, snickers, then begins running her hand through his hair.* You really got pasted with confetti! ... Sheena wonders where it came from...

Panzer: "Oh the confetti? Well, you know, it's a party where ever I go."

He removes some of the confetti from his hair and sprinkles it into Sheena's.

Romero started to blush becoming beat red
Romero: I...I uh....j-just guess? hehehehehe..So....I...I guess we're locked in here huh?

Eyah : *Giggles.* Well now that'd be rather convenient wouldn't it? *Sighs* no, I'd say we've got 3 ways out of here. Wait for someone to open the door from the outside, jump out the windows and drop from two stories up, or my personal favorite... *Hops off the windowsill, unplugs her phone & adapter from the wall, gently grabs Romero and walks with him over to a large locker in the corner of the classroom, opening up the door.* The secret passage. ^_~

Eyah sternly punches the back of the locker, which loudly clicks, then whooshes to the side revealing a narrow walkway that leads to a ladder downwards.
She led the way of course, having Romero close the locker door behind him.
After many twists and turns, they ended up at another wall which Eyah swiftly punched again. This one opened up next to an old refrigerator in the Little Tokyo High's Garage...

Eyah : *Helps Romero get out of the passage, closing it behind him.* Now... Didn't someone come into the lunch hallway and say they had a learners permit? What say we ditch the rest of school and go for a little ride? *Holds up her school bag.* I've got videos that are due at the rental store. >=3


*** Meanwhile... Inside Little Tokyo High's Office... ***

Principal Tio : *Takes a hold of the PA Mic, turning on the system.* Would Romero Anchovy please report to the office please, Romero Anchovy to the office please. Thank you. *Clicks off the mic, turning around & looking at Ms. Anari.* ... Well?

Ms. Anari : *Holding her bag close to her, looking at Tio with a confused expression.* Well... what... sir?

Principal Tio : *Sighs.* Katie, when I asked you to take over this project, I understand it was sudden and you're camera shy... but how could you sit back and let Mr. Anchovy take over the whole broadcast with tabloid information?

Ms. Anari : Well... you see... I kinda just... Heh... froze there... yeah...

Principal Tio : *Sighs again.* Ok... Look... Tomorrow's another day. I expect you to be able to handle yourself better tomorrow with your students and yourself broadcasting again. This time however Mrs. Berry will be there to provide you with a set script that your co-anchor and yourself will abide by... is that good enough?

Ms. Anari : *Talking on her cell phone.* Sure... just a sec... *Looks at Principal Tio.* What was that sir?


*** Meanwhile... In classroom 38-B on the other side of the campus... ***

The classroom was empty... except for one individual...

Grams : *Sneaking in through an un-locked window.*Uggg... I'm getting too old for this...

She begins her survey of the room...Starting with the pie-goo wall.

Grams : *Wipes a bit of the goo with her finger, sniffs it, then licks it.* ... Gyeck... Coconut... Not my pie of choice.

She follows the trail back, finally ending at one part of the room.

Grams : Looks like whomever he was, was standing right here... *Looks around the rest of the room.* Everything looks normal... but something feels off... *She stretches her arms into the air, wincing slightly as a loud CRACK came from her back.* There! Now it feels normal. Oh well... I'd better go talk to Karin. She might've heard about something...

A certain bunny was wandering the halls, trying to make heads or tails of the map in his hands, turning it over and looking at it sideways and upside-down even. But still, he couldn't seem to find a suitable landmark...and then the Principal's announcement went over the PA, catching his attention.

Samuel: To the office? ...that should be easy enough. And when I find him there, I'll be sure to give him a piece of my mind! *looks back to the map* So that must be room 146b...so then the science lab has to be over there...no no, that can't be...errrrrgh! *keeps wandering*

*Meanwhile, the "All girls club", or AGC was now in the library...
 
Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl: Hey! where is everyone?
 
Hikari, the Boss assistant: Boss, be quiet, this is the library!
 
Rine whispers: Sorry, by the way, why was that map in Japanese?
 
Sarah, the bunny girl with green eyes whispers: Boss, this is a Japanese show!
 
Jenny, the blonde bunny girl whispers: Yeah, but was that cute boy Japanese?
 
Ann, the bunny girl with glasses, and black hair tied in a ponytail whispers: If he isn't, what the hell is he doing here? Interchange student or something?
 
Rine whispers: Ok, point taken, are we going to start drawing that newspaper comic or what?

*** Later that day... After classes had gotten out... ***

Kyo : *Walking with Samuel, pointing out a few spots on Sam's Map of the school.* So... all you really have to do is climb those stairs to get to our home room.

Camma : *Flipping through a few notes, nodding as she walks.* The school's layout is fairly simple. *Stops, pausing for a moment.* Although it oddly has many areas one can hide in...

Kyo : *Smerks.* Don't forget about the cold-war era data center down in the basement, man I wish I could remember more about that place.

Camma : Oh it is not that big Kyo. ... Perhaps you both would like to discuss it over an after-school meal at the Samurai Pizza Cat? My treat?

Kyo : O_o ... *Looks at Samuel, whispering.* I... don't know what we should do...


*** Meanwhile... In a small park near the Samurai Pizza Cat. ***

Eyah : *Sitting on a bench, eating some ice cream.* Now Romero... We really got to talk about your future as an Anchor cat... Your hard news reporting... it needs a little... something...

Romero: *giggled nervously* hehehe...i-it does? So what do you think it needs Eyah? though i'm sure i'm going to get an ear full from Tio about it...all i'm doing is bringing people hard hitting information for their everyday lives...everything i said is true....

Romero took a few licks of his ice cream before it sild off the cone and landed on his lap

Romero: dang it!

Samuel: *whispers back/shrugs* Makes little difference to me. Sooner I learn the lay of the land, the better...besides, who passes up free food?

Samuel takes a glance at Camma before returning to Kyo...

Samuel: What's the worst that could happen?

Farah and Jack where going to the PizzaCat Emporium, thats the name of the pizza place you know!

Farah: So, care to tell me more about this big plan of yours?

Jack: After lunch... I am starving!

Farah: Fine...

Dash finally was able to make hsi way to Principal Tio's office and he talked to the student at the front desk.

 Dash: excuse me ma'am...I was wondering if I could talk to Principal Tio (is face covered by the faceplate armor from his helmet but his eyes showing so as to not seem as threatening

*** Meanwhile... Inside Little Tokyo High's Office... ***

Secretary : *Frowning, staring at Dash in his full suit of armor...* I... Err... Umm... Errr...

Principal Tio : *Standing in his doorway, lightly smirking at the spectacle before him.* Ok, ok. Let the gentleman in please.

As Dash came in, Tio closed the door, then proceeded to sit behind his desk.

Principal Tio : What's on your mind?


*** Meanwhile... At the Samurai Pizza Cat... ***

Kyo, Samuel, and Camma are seated at a table waiting for their food.

Kyo : O_O ....

Camma : *Lightly sipping on some tea, gently smiling, and softly humming a tune.*

Kyo : O_O ....

Camma : So Samuel,  have you ever though about show business?


*** Meanwhile... In a small park near the Samurai Pizza Cat. ***

Eyah : *Smirks at the ice cream drop.* You leave... I mean... He may he may be a little upset at first... but I am sure he'll come around. So... In order to help you my dear... *Stands up, raising her cone into the air.* I'll become your manager!!!! And my first order of business is to tell you to get that ice cream off of your pants.

Romero was shocked at Eyah's purposal

Romero: R-really Eyah?!?!? *stands up and the ice cream falls off* THANKS SO MUCH!!! *hugs Eyah*

Samuel: *sipping a diet soda* Showbiz? *snerk* What, like performing? No...why would I want to go prancing about in front of a bunch of people I don't know? If you ask me, the whole 'business' is just a cheap inane antic meant to capture the shortened attention spans of the general population. There are much better uses of my time...*sip*

After school, Panzer had found himself a job at his local Ninjaplex Theater. The theater had started him on a position at the food concession booths. He wore a simple navy blue uniform and a cap with the theaters logo on it.

Panzer moved back to the counter with a tray of nachos. "Would you like cheese and salsa with your nachos, or two cheeses?" he asked the guest on the other side. They wanted two cheeses.

"Coming right up."

Panzer retrieved the cups of jalapeno cheese from a warmer, as Leon silently cued up the order on Panzer's assigned register. Panzer came back with the cheese, observing his co-workers still punching in their orders on the touch screens. Panzer had made good use of Leon here, having him linked wirelessly to his register's terminal; he could be retrieving the food as he received the order. The managers were impressed at his ability to keep the line ups short and moving quickly.

*** And... At the Samurai Pizza Cat... ***

Jack: ...

Farah: Yeah, seems service is a bit slow today...

Dash: Power down...(Dash's armor disappears leaving him in street clothes) Sorry about that sir...anyway, there's been some strange goings on here (which I guess for a school like this is par for the course) but I was coming back from signing out to check on my grandmother and it looked like the school was even more weird than usual. I was working through the crowd once I got back inside and somebody said some weird stuff was happening after some news broadcast...

*** Meanwhile... in Principal Tio's Office. ***

Principal Tio : *Smerks.* I assume you're talking about the students in classroom 38-B? Don't worry about them my boy, it's just a case of pranksters. The goo covering the student happens to be the same pie that went missing from the cafeteria fridges earlier this morning. The room itself seems to be completely in tact except for the pie stains. ... As for the news cast... *Sighs* Let's just say that tomorrow things will be different as to prevent another instance of what happened today.


*** Meanwhile... in the halls of Little Tokyo High, outside Nurse Arisa's office. ***

Nurse Arisa : *Pouring some tea into a cup.* *Cheerfully* It's been a long time you old biddy. You never come visit!

Grams : *Powered down, taking the tea cup, and blowing on it lightly.* *Also cheerfully* Well you old coot, not all of us have grandchildren whom are in college! *Chuckles.* I should be the one insulted that you don't visit me in my prison!

A short silence stands in the room before the two burst out laughing.

Nurse Arisa : *Now pouring herself a cup.* Oh my, it has been too long. How can I help you on this fine day?

Grams : *Takes a sip.* Well Karin, I was wondering what you could tell me about what happened classroom 38-B? Seems like there was quite the commotion in there!

Nurse Arisa : *Lightly blows on the tea in her teacup, then takes a sip.* I honestly couldn't say my dear. Amoto seems to think it's just a set of students pranking each other... And some of the evidence does go with it.

Grams : *Takes another sip, watching Nurse Arisa intently.* And what do you think Karin?

Nurse Arisa : *Sighs, closing her eyes, putting down her tea cup.* It felt... Odd. Oh there was a moment of danger... but at the same time there was something holding it back. It felt familiar... I could swear I've felt it sometime before.

Grams : ... What should we do?

Nurse Arisa : *Gently picks up her tea cup, opening her eyes looking down into it's contents, she sighs gently.* Nothing for the time being. We need to just do as we have, watch over them.

Grams : *Sitting... pondering...* I suppose you're right... *Takes a sip.* I don't suppose you could use an assistant for the next few days could you?

Nurse Arisa : *Lightly chuckles.* I could... but I was more or less hoping for a handsome young male nurse!


*** Meanwhile... In the Samurai Pizza Cat... ***

Camma : *Shakes her head at Samuel'l answer.* No no no Samuel. I was more or less asking you if you'd rather be the primary anchor of the lunch-time news cast at school tomorrow?

Kyo: *Spirts out his cola back into the cup.* Ergwha? ... *Thinks back to the broadcast.* Well... Seeing as how the first one went I can see... But... How...?

Camma : Well... It's not a sure thing yet. However I would be more than willing to work with Samuel on his delivery of the news. I promise to be studious in my research, and to give you accurate information. After the fanfare Romero presented him with, I am certain that he would be very popular among the student populous. I would be more than willing to talk to Principal Tio about it tomorrow morning if you are willing to go through with it now Samuel.


*** Meanwhile... at Jack & Farah's table... ***

Speedy : *Gasping, out of breath.* Sorry about that folks, we just got done cleaning up a major spill in the kitchen. What can I get'cha?



*** Meanwhile... At a suit & tie shop... ***

Eyah : *Picking out various outfits, then handing them over to Romero.* Now one of the main things to being a broadcaster is looking the part. OOo! This looks good! *Pulls a black & yellow striped very wide tie off the rack, tossing it onto the large pile of cloths Romero's holding.* Now, you go into the dressing room while I find you some nice shoes!

Romero: If there's one thing i hate more than Vampires, Van's, Clowns, Stairs, Flying....

5 minuets later..

Burrittos that you think there's meat in it but it's really just beans, and Princpal Tio's wig....it's Trying on clothes...

Romero stormed into the dressing room and started to try on the clothes Eyah picked

Romero: I hope the food courts open after all these clothes she got me tying on, i'll be here for ever...

Grams chuckled lightly...

Grams: Oh that's alright then...maybe LTGH (Little Tokyo General Hospital) can spare one of their orderlies for you in the meanwhile...

The two share a laugh while Dash exits out of Principal Tio's office

Dash: I could have sworn that something was up here...well I guess I'll just try to relax and go about the rest of the day and try to get it off my mind.

So with that Dash returned his skates to his locker and headed to the cafeteria to deal with another mystery...just what the stuff they serve in there is made of...

Samuel pondered Camma's offering, fiddling with his glasses as the cognitive gears turned the idea over...

Samuel: Honestly...the idea of doing the morning broadcast doesn't quite connect with me but...considering what Romero's done to the whole deal, not to mention that taking the job would be a nice blow to his ego, I have to reconsider that position. *smiles* If you can pull the strings then I will take the post.

Romero started to grow impatient waiting for Eyah to return so he snuck out and decided to head to the food court to get somethign to eat

Romero: ahh...soon i'll have something to eat and i'll be a happy cat.

As he stood in line he felt someone tap his back and he spun around and saw that it was...

romero: *gasping* P-Panzer!?!? What in the name of Buy one get one are you doing here?

Panzer: "What am I doing here? Really?" *he indicates his uniform* "I have a job, you know. Not EVERYONE can be having a jolly good time at the Pizza Cat every evening."

"Anyways, yah. It's my lunch time. I don't have much of it left so move up will ya." *he points toward the gap in the line up ahead of Romero.* They shuffle up closer to the food counter.

Leon: "Can I ask a question?" The A.I. doesn't wait for permition from Romero as a scans the mall's security cameras. "How exactly did you manage to ditch Eyah so you could come here?"

Panzer: "Eyah's here too?"

Leon: "Yah, and she doesn't look happy either."

Romero: Hey I have a job too....working for General at his place is no fun....doing 20 laps before i take out the trash *shudders* and don't get me started on the 4th of July......

Romero steps forward and places his order
Romero: I'll have...3 number 3's two number 4's a number 7 9 number 37's, a number 2 with sauce, a number 2 without sauce, eight number 172's with just cheese and make sure they are well done....oh and 6 cherry pies and a large chocolate shake.....

Romero steps to the side and lets Panzer order

Romero: How'd she figure out i left? that's what i'm wonderin....hmmm...but i'll sneak back in and she won't know what hit her..and tommorrow you'll come on the show and do your interview.

Panzer: "Sure I'll do your interview for you. But lets try to keep our FACTS strait this time."

Panzer suffles up to the counter for his order. "I'll have the crab bisque."  *shuffles over to the right*

Romero: Facts? The facts ARE stright! Everyone know's you have a 11th Toe on your stomach....

Still at the PizzaCat Emporium...

Jack and Farah stare at Speedy for a moment...

Jack: I want a cup of hot boiling tea, a piece of lemon pie and a glass of orange juice, what about you FG?

Farah: Give me your biggest onion pizza and a big bottle of soda!

Jack. Onion?

Farah: What? Is healthy you know!

 

*** Meanwhile... At the Suit & Tie shop... ***

Eyah : *Standing with her arms crossed, tapping her foot, un-impressed with the empty dressing room.* ... Well... we'll have to take a few guesses at the sizing I suppose...

Eyah proceeds to pick out the rest of the outfits, then goes up to the cash register.

Cashier : *Wierded out by the gaudy selection.* Isn't this going a little far Miss?

Eyah : *Raises an eyebrou.* You let me worry about that... *Begins handing over some cash.* Would you call the seamstress up here? These are going to need a little more work.

Wthin a few moments an older lady emerges from the back room with measuring tape & pins in her hair.

Seamstress : Yes dear? How may I help you?

Eyah : *Hands her all of the pants.* Make each of these tight in the crotch, and loosen the stitching down the middle of the rear if you'd be so kind. *Smiles brightly.*

Seamstress: *Wierded out.* Ok deary, if that's what you'd like.


*** Back at the Pizza Cat... ***

Camma : *Extends her hand, shaking Samuel's.* You have yourself a deal. Do not worry about the outfit, I'll have one prepared for you by tomorrow 1 hour before the broadcast. *She gets up from the chair, then bows.* If you gentlemen will excuse me, I must go begin the preparations.


*Over at Jack's Table...*

The food had been served, hot and ready to eat.
And boy did it smell good... an onion-y.

Romero after eating stumbled back into the clothing store

"I hope Eyah didn't..." *Spots her at the tailors* "Dang it....alright get it together Anchovy...some smooth moves and she'll forget everything....no lady can resist the old Anchovy Kitten eyes trick"

So with way too much confedence Rome's walks up to Eyah tapping her on the shoulder and giving her the old Big wattery eyes trick

"Eyah...I waz so scared....I ranz away....please forgivez mez..."

Samuel: When business calls...*watches her leave* Tomorrow's gonna be pretty interesting... *sips more of his drink* Wouldn't you say so...?*glances at kyo*

Jack and Farah start eating...

(I promise to have something up for you guys tomorrow evening.   :-* )

*** At the Suit & Tie Shop... ***

Eyah : *Un-interestedly listened to Romero plead for a few minutes... then... suddenly a smile spread across her face.* Romero... *Pats him on the shoulder.* I know how scarry it must've been all by yourself with all those cloths! What was I thinking! Don't worry though... I took care of everything for you. *She points at the seamstress.* You see that nice lady? She's fixing your pants up really nice. Trust me...


*** Back at the Samurai Pizza Cat... ***

Kyo : *Nodding slowly... looking off in another direction.* Yeah... Say... *Gestures towards a clown entertaining a bunch of kids.* Doesn't that clown look kinda familiar?


They both stared at the clown for a few minutes... From the sound of it's voice the clown appeared to be female...
The entire group of children were giggling and laughing loudly as she juggled pies, while the afro-haired father sat back nodding with approval.
All was going well...

Guido : *Walking back into the Emporium.* Phew... That was a long delivery... I couldn't even find the... *His eyes lock onto the clown-lady...* ... You...

Francine : *From behind the counter.* Uh oh... *Turns around, screaming back into the kitchen.* SPEEDY! POLLY! CODE AVACADO!

Guido : *Begins rolling up his sleaves...* Oh I remember you... Your evil ends NOW~

Guido lunged for the clown-lady, falling short as Speedy tackled him with full force, grappling him to the ground.
The clown-lady screamed in surprise, sending all of her pies into the air causing it to rain pie upon everyone at the table.

Kyo : *Watching as a stray pie flies his way.* Hoakie pete! *SPLAT!*

The clown-lady looks over towards Kyo & Sam's table... screams again, then high-tails it out of there.

Guido: *Wrestling to get free of Speedy's grip, the pie goo giving him some advantage.* Let go! She'll destroy us all unless I stop her!

Just as Guido got free... Polly clocked him with a pan knocking him out...


*** The next day... At Little Tokyo High... a few hours before lunch time & the news broadcast... ***

Sheena : *Working on a Sudoku puzzle while awaiting the next class.* Wow, Sheena never knew math could be so fun! *Thinks for a few moments...* But Sheena can't help but think Sheena's forgetting something... *Surveys the room.* What could it be... *She looks at Kyo, then Eyah, then Panzer... smiles...., then looks at Camma, and her eyes dart past Romero..., then Samuel.* Sheena swears it was important... What could it be? Sheena thinks it starts with a R...

Dash finished his lunch and decided to head to the gym and work on his forms, so first he stopped at his locker and grabbed his gym uniform and then headed to the locker room, as he headed down the hall he ran into Romero

At the gym,  the "All girls club", or AGC was wearing cheerleader outfits...
 
Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl: Why the hell we are doing this anyway?
 
Hikari, the Boss assistant: Boss, you know we have to do some exercise or we will start to get fat!
 
Rine: But WHY cheerleaders?
 
Sarah, the bunny girl with green eyes: Boss, please, this school haven't had cheerleaders since last year.

Jenny, the blonde bunny girl: Yeah, they got scared of all the weird stuff and got transferred to another school, weaklings! Plus we can cheer for that cute boy Dash!
 
Ann, the bunny girl with glasses, and black hair tied in a ponytail: So now you like cats?
 
Rine: Ok, point taken, but why the outfits have to be so revealing?

Hikari: Boss, cheerleaders remember, doh!

Rine: Hikari if you start to talk Bimbo like, I am out of here!

Romero had his Suit on that Eyah gave to him walkig down the hall preparing for his broadcast when he ran into Dash

Romero: oh hey Dash....you've been MIA for a while....what you been up to? how's that whole commersail thing going anyways? They give you free stuff right? Just wanna know....got a lot of Hard hitting news to deliever this boardcast.... *spots Samuel* HEy Sammy...how you liking LTH so far pick up any chicks yet?

Dash looked at his now well dressed friend..."eh its alright...long hours and them having me fly off to do some photoshoot at unbelievable hours..."

Samuel: *thinking to himself* Just ignore him...just ignore him...this will all be over shortly! *out loud* H-hey...Romero...just...well, can't talk right now, have somewhere else to be. You understand, right!? Well, catch ya later! *dashes away*

As Samuel was dashing away, a hand reached out, and pulled him into a side hallway.

Camma : Ahh, good, you're full of energy today I see. *Places a package in his arms, as well as a box of shoes.* There's your outfit. I promise it should be everything you need. I've also talked with Principal Tio, and you are good to go co-hosting the show with Romero. If he begins to make more accusations it will be your job to counter them. If you need information, that's what the tablet inside the shoe-box is for. I'll feed you any information you need. *Stops talking for a moment.* Do you have any questions?


*** Meanwhile... Outside the school... By the Gym... ***


Ms. Anari : *Slowly walking through the area... watching to make sure she wasn't being followed.* ... *She goes behind the building, diving into some bushes.* Ahh... There you are... My dirty little secret... Are we ready to begin?


*** Back in the hallway... ***

Eyah : *Walks up beside Dash.* Looking good Newscaster Romero! *Looks over at Dash.* You kinda look good too... Ish...  *She pulls out a kilt from her backpack.* You need more kilt though! *Stuffs it in Dash's arms, then grabs Dash & Romero's hands.* Come on you two, let's get you both into makeup for the show!

Samuel's gaze narrowed from an initial expression of surprise to that of annoyance and realization...

Samuel: Hold the phone! I thought you said I would be REPLACING Romero...not fixing up his blunders and holding his leash! Or did you leave that little bit out so I would be less inclined to reject your ' business proposal'!?

Dash: Hey, just wait a cotton pickin minute...first off, Im french-canadian by birth...we dont wear kilts...secondly, I sure as heck am NOT gonna be roped into doing some newscast, especially looking like some half-baked news anchor...so you better let me go this instant before I...

Eyah : *Stops, letting go of Dash, and turning around, facing him.* No need to get snippy about it~ I just wanted to give you a chance to let your inner Scotsman shine! Oh well... Your loss really. *Whirls around, and continues on, pulling Romero with her into the girls bathroom.*

A few screams later, followed by a female classmates scurrying out...

Eyah : *Begins applying makeup on Romero.* Well Romero, at least you have your new big headline... "Dash hates the Irish, refuses to partake in ceremony." *Stops, then looks into his eyes, smiling tenderly.* That sounds like a good lead story, doesn't it sweetie?


*** Meanwhile... Back in the side hallway... ***


Camma : *Her eye-brows arch upwards for a moment in surprise...* ... *Her eyes slowly close, then re-open... something about her changing...* Well now... I wouldn't say that Samuel...  The fact of the matter is that Principal Tio was less than willing to give ... I mean accept my proposal. He insisted that Romero remain as a co-anchor.

As she talked she shifted her stance slightly, moving closer to Samuel, bit by bit.

Camma : *She leaned over slightly towards Samuel, holding her hands behind her back innocently.* I wasn't going to tell you this until you got your cloths on, however I hear that one of Romero's first stories is going to be about you actually. However... *Her hands swiftly take the shoe-box from the top of the cloths, holding the box behind her hostage.* I did not fulfill my promise to you, so you do not have to do this. I suppose I'll have to go find someone else... Perhaps Class Representative Kyo will be more willing to take on the challenge.

Thus... The final catch was revealed.

Camma : *Looks at her watch...* I hope I can locate him in time... There are only 15 minutes until Romero goes on air... *A sly look was in her eyes as she looked straight into Samuel's.*


*** Meanwhile... In the Nurse's Office... ***


Nurse Arisa : *Moves a chess piece.* ... And so that was when my daughter decided to just give into love. *Chuckles.* It was about time too, her friend had been trying to woo her for so long you'd have thought the man was insane!

Grams : *Pondering, her eyes looking over the chessboard.* Well... This is your daughter we're talking about... *Moves a chess piece.* She's got the stubbornness of both you and your husband.

Nurse Arisa : *Chuckles.* Isn't that the truth... *Makes another move just as the phone in her office rings.* Check~ *Gets up slowly, walking over to the phone & picking it up.* Nurse's Office...

Grams' eyebrows went up for a moment, then began surveying the scene... While Arisa did have her in a small bind... there was one thing the Nurse'd overlooked... A dangerous mistake...

Nurse Arisa : *Nods, writing something down on a sheet.* Oh my... I'm sorry to hear that... yes... I understand. Thank you madam... Please give her my best. *Hangs up.* That was Camma Hadski's guardian on the phone... Evidently the poor girl was dreadfully sick this morning. *Sits down, watching Grams begin to make her move.* She won't be in at all today. I'll have to inform her home room teacher & the office at the end of the day. ... *Thinks for a moment.* I'm actually surprised I haven't heard from Ms. Anari or the office yet.

Grams : *Makes her move.* Check-mate!

Romero coughed as Eyah did his make-up,

Romero: Gack! I think that's enough Eyah!!! Sheesh....and yeah that is a good Story but not quite as good as the Clip of the Year....hehehehe...this boardcast is gonna change LTH forever....and nothings going to stop it!

Once Eyah was done Romero got one last look in the mirror

Romero: Darn that's one fine looking Anchorcat...hehehe...Eat your heart out Wolf Blitzer..

Romero turned back and gave Eyah a kiss on the cheek

Romero: thanks Eyah I couldn't have done this without you....Everyone thinks your just an Evil Bully who get's joy out of causing other's pain and to mask the fact that one of your wings are longer then the other, but i think your a Great Friend!

And with that heart felt speech Romero made his way to the boardcast room eager to give LTH the story of a lifetime....

Samuel's gaze and posture remained unphased, his arms folding as he processed his response to both her 'information' and the revised proposal.

Samuel: So that's it? Baiting the hook with a personal agenda...make me want to save face by jumping in head first and keeping Anhorcat Anchovy from drowning my unborn reputation in a stream of lies? You have a clever air about you and for that I commend you but do not think for a moment that when I say 'I accept', that I am doing it out of the selfish nature of my more basic instincts. I have no idea what motive you have for putting me personally up there but they seem to weigh in as more than damage control, and I intend to reel out what exactly that is. *arms unfold* And the best way to do that, for now, is to play right into your hands so if you don't mind handing over that box...*holds out hands* I have a task to play out...if you would be so kind.

Camma : *Smiles, gracefully bringing the shoe box around and placing it into Samuel's hands.* Thank you~ *With that, she twirls around, confidently walking back into the main hallway.* Good luck~ <3


*** A few minutes later... In the camera room... ***

Sheena : *Maintaining the camera again.* Here Sheena goes again... *Moves the camera around, focusing on Principal Tio.* Nice look there sir!

Principal Tio : *Smiles, then looks at his watch.* We're getting close to air-time. I wonder where our anchors are... *Pulls out a note from the office, reading it over again.* Ms. Anari indicated that Romero & Samuel will be the anchors for today. *Looks at Sheena.* You have the kill switch ready in case we need to cut the broadcast, correct?

Sheena : *Nods, looking at the big-red button on the side of the camera.* Yep! Shenna'll knock that thing like... *Her eyes open wide as she comes to a sudden realization of the vengeance she still needed to enact.* ROMERO ANCHOVEY!!!!

   *Meanwhile at the library...
 
Jack: ...
 
Farah:What?
 
Jack: Why would let me do a school newspaper if they where going to make this school get its own TV news channel?
 
Farah: Well, I know is only you, me and those bunny girls, but I really think that comics strips they made will make people read the newspaper...
 
Jack: Please, like anyone cares about a penguin and a white duck stuck in a pirate island, or two brothers and their pet alien...
 
Farah: They are doing this for FREE!
 
Jack: Okay, whatever...

Just as Sheena said that Romero walked in fully dreessed in his Anchorcat getup he was talking with someone as he was walking towards the set drinking his coffee after he dismissed them he went to go sit in his spot when he saw Principle Tio.

Romero: Principle Tio....Come down to see the show live for yourself I see....well i'm glad you wanted my autograph....*jots down his name on a piece of paper and hands it to Tio* could you please move your messing with my lighting...And Where's Anari? I need the Guests in make-up and i need my Co-anchor! Come on people!!!! *glares at Sheena* and you! Lowly Camera Woman! Keep the camera focused on here! *points to his face* what i Say goes....there's always the REST of the A/V club that would kill for your position!

Samuel trudged in through the door, having managed to rush on his new attire, adjusting the tie as he ducked into the room.

Samuel: *spotting Romero* Ah jeeze...not even rolling and this is a disaster. *slowly makes his way for one of the seats* Keep him in line? More like keep him from talking...saying Romero is capable of self-control is equivalent in saying a cricket has restless leg syndrome! *plops into the chair* ...At least the seat's comfy...that's ONE positive outcome out of this.

Sheena : *Clenching her fists, nearly bending the camera's handles downward, clenching her teeth shut.* *Under her breath.* LOWLY WOMAN?!

Principal Tio : *Clears his throat.* Yes... Well... *Pockets the paper, keeping his feet right where they are.* Mr. Romero, while I appreciate that you're taking your role as a news caster to an extreme level... I must ask you to please mind who you really ar~

At that moment, the school intercom clicked to life.

"Principal Tio, please immediately report to the gym complex. Principal Tio, please immediately report to the gym complex."

Principal Tio : *Closes his eyes, taking a deep calming breath.* Ok... I'll be right back & we'll pick up this conversation where we left off after the broadcast. *Begins walking out.* Ms. Hadski, start at the normal time & if things get out of hand you know what to do.

Sheena : *Cracking her knuckles.* Yes sir!


*** A few minutes later... outside the gym... ***


Principal Tio : *Walking around behind the building towards the maintenance entrance.* What in the world... Seriously... the main entrance locked?

As Tio nears the door, and begins fumbling with his keys, his feet give out from under him, and he falls down into a deep, dark hole... Followed by a loud SPLAT!

(More to come tomorrow. I promise.)

*Meanwhile at the library...
 
Jack: I am tired of waiting, let hunt for news!
 
Farah: Ok, where?
 
Jack: Well... I have no clue...

Farah: What about the gym?

Jack: Please, like anything goes there when Miss Anari is not around the place...

Romero took his seat going over the last of the cue cards,

"Sammy," he said adjusting his tie and looking at the young rabbit, "What in the name of Hank Hill, are you doing here? i thought you can't stand the lime light....all those people watching....staring....besides....but then again i guess you could fill in for the female anchor position better then Anari did....i had to praticly carry her....but this messes up with female houseviews viewers and middle aged mothers that are going to be watching....maybe if we put a wig on you....then i'd know people would believe that..." Romero snaps his fingers to one of the crew personel, "You get me a Blonde wig now!!.." Romero snapped, "hehe...yeah...I always pegged you as a blonde..."

once the final countdown began to happen everyone too their place....

"Alright people!" Romero said, "Just like we went over....Don't Dissapoint me!!" Glares at Sammy before waiting for Sheena to give the final count down...

Sheena : *Grumbles, looking at the clock.* 3... 2... 1... *Flick's the switch.*

Graphics begin swirling on the teleprompter, "LTH Noon News" is displayed followed pictures of Romero & Samuel.
The show was live on the air.

Sheena : *Looks at her copy of the official script.* -=Romero's first announcement is supposed to be about the nutritional benefits of jello with veggies in it.=-

Panzer stood just outside of the studio with the door cracked open. He had on a navy blue blazer and a neck tie; his best clothes for his promised interview.

He had a plate of jello from the caffeteria to calm his nerves.

Panzer: "Look at that, Leon, the broadcast hasn't even started, and things are already tense in there."

Leon: - The shape of things to come I suppose? You know, you still have an option to do this.

Panzer: "No. I agreed to do this. Besides, If anything really damaging comes from this, I can always go to the school paper to set things strait."

Leon: - That or you can get a clean rep with that Italian Dance School downtown, you can be Panzurno!

Panzer: "Panzurno is wondering why there is a piece of broccoli in his jello."

*Meanwhile at the library...
 
Jack: Zzzz
 
Farah:Jack!
 
Jack: Uh, what?

Farah: What if we make the newspaper online?

Jack: Well, that could save costs, but you do remember the computer problems we had here a while ago, right?

Farah: I have my own server, we could host the page there...

Jack: Well, it could work, we could even add videos and audio recordings to compete with the TV news of this place...

Farah: So, is that a yes?

Jack: Yeah, why not?

And thus... the tablet on the table that Camma had given Samuel lit up.

Tablet : *With Samuel's Voice.* You know Romero, I've always wanted to show off my ventriloquism skills on camera. With that out of the way, let me introduce our first guest on the matter of Jello with Vegetables, Panzer Howell. Mr. Howell, please come on in!


(I know it's small, I'm just trying to get the ball rolling a little bit.  ;) )

Samuel looks down, alarmed and startled by the seemingly random occurrence...

Samuel: Eh...hehe...*grins weakly/turns his eyes scanning the room* ... *through clamped teeth* What's going on? *starts to sweat* Romero...

Panzer walks on camera and sits across from Romero.

Panzer: "Uh... hi... yah thanks for having me on. I kinda just discovered the vegetables in the jello right now, so I don't know much to say."

"If you want a running opinion on it, I'd say they should leave desserts to be what they are. Instead I think the cafeteria should aim for variety in their vegetarian menu. We only really have the pees and carrots going. We could have maybe some stir-fried vegitables. Or better yet, maybe put some sushi on the menu. For crying out loud, this is Little Tokyo, and we don't have an option for sushi!!! Am I right or am I right?"

Romero eyed Samuel up and down upset oat being staged up

Romero: *clearing his throat* yeah...well...as much as everyone want's to be bored with your act the real reason Panzer or his street name of OG Hardshell is here is to explain the fact he's the only Aardvark here, and to explain the reason why he always smells like peaches everytime Mrs. Anari decides to have a class field trip to somewhere Shoe related.... *leans in close to Samuel* be smart bunny boy and don't step in this cats spot light* Turns to Panzer* Now...let's press the issue! *all the lights focus on panzer* NOW Panzer...if that is your true name...is it true you make a living selling bagged milk and scented gel pens to the elderly in the LT black marked?

Panzer: "Uh.. no that's not true... none of that is true..."

"First I'm not an Ardvark, I'm an Armadillo... though the, uh, species are related."

"Oh!!! and the bagged milk thing... no I don't sell it. for those of you wondering I am Canadian, and we do normally get bagged milk as well as the cartons."

"There are a few stores in Little Tokyo that have bagged milk, and we get it because of habit... I can see where that confusion comes from."

"As for the scented gel pens... I'm not quite following the connection to the elderly."

" You seem to have a lot of questions involving entrepreneural activity... I'm really have a hard time following how you're coming up with all this... no I'm not selling anything, nobody is selling anything"

"I'm just a student"

"Look, don't you have any question about anything concreat? I got all kinds of things that you're looking at right here, that I'm surprised you are not asking about."

Leon: "Lilke why he claims to hear a voice coming from his wrist all the time?"

As Samuel glares over at Romero, the pad lights up, followed by an audible chirp.

Tablet : *In Samuel's Voice.* Yes, while what Romero's reporting is possibly fabricated, he's only mentioning this because he's attempting to divert attention away from the possibility that he himself likes those little scented Gel pens. Now Panzer, is Gelatin in any way related to Romero's presentation? If so, would you say it affects the nutritional value?

*** Meanwhile... In Classroom 38-B... ***

No student, nor faculty were in the room at that time...
So... There was no one to see...
As Romero & Samuel began their duel of words... the TV began to do something odd...
A white creamy substance began to plop out from the speaker.

Dash was over in the gym practicing some kata to burn off some energy after the situation with Eyah which certainly rubbed him the wrong way and he had a free period anyway.

Dash: Something against Scots and Irish...unbelievable...one of my best friends back in American is part Irish...and my girlfriend's family comes from a long line of Irish potato farmers...the nerve...

Farah Gail, the fox-girl enters the gym and looks at Dash

Farah: Look, Dash... err ...

She looks nervous, as if unsure what to do or say, for what little Dash knows about her, that sure is new...

Farah: Ah dammit! Forget it!

She turns around and heads for the gym exit...

Samuel picked up the pad, glaring at it menacingly and baring his teeth...

Samuel: How are you doing that!? *notices he's losing his demeanor* er...I mean...*sloooowly sets the pad down* Um...yes...nutritional.....value.....Romero...*slowly/shakily turns his head over toward Romes* Why don't you tell us...

Dash sees FG heading for the exit and catches her before she leaves.

Dash: hey Farah...I know you want to say something to me but I want you to know I already have an idea of what it might be...and I just want to tell you that I think youre a nice gal and all, but I already have a gf who I care for very much...even though she is back in America. I told her that once Im done here Im going back there for college and we can be closer to each other. If that wasnt what you were thinking of talking about...well I put it out there and Im sorry but youre prince charming is elsewhere...

Farah looks at Dash surprised for a moment, then she somewhat calms down

Farah: Look Dash, this wasn't about that. I know a weird girl who claims that she is from another world, and that you are being slowly overtaken by evil, yeah it sounds stupid, that's why I was leaving.

Romero Gritting his teeth and tightened the grip on his pen

Romero: *thinking to himself* WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS!?!?!? Fine....he want's to play hard ball eh.....good think i have plan.....W

without much Warning he diverted his attention away from panzer giving the camera the signal to focus on him holdin his ear with one hand..

Romero:: uh-huh...well looks like we have a celebrity on our hands ladies and gentlemen....Sammy...how does it feel to be the first male rabbit in a all female racoon ballet Group?

Samuel's attention quickly turned from the convenient voice overs emanating from the pad and turning his attention to the pompous anchor-cat beside him.

Samuel: Wha-? Female...what, no! That has nothing to do with vegetable based deserts...if it were even true!*scowl/snap* I just got here, I wouldn't have even had time to sign up for, let alone know of the existence of an all female raccoon ballet! In fact, if anything, the fact that you know makes me suspect YOU'RE the one secretly doing ballet! You always needed a use for that stupid pink tutu you hide in your backpack!!!

Romero: *shocked* YOU SWORE TO NEVER....er.....THIS ISN'T About ME BUCK TOOTH BOY!!!! ISN'T IT TRUE THAT YOU WHERE BORN WITH BUCK TEETH AND WEBBED FEET?

Samuel: I'm a rabbit...I was born with extended front teeth. But webbed feet is just ridiculous...*forces a laugh* but if you like webbed feet so much, maybe you could ask a platypus girl out on a date. I'm sure they'd LOVE to have a 'handsome anchor cat' such as yourself...

Romero: heh oh yeah as sure as any girl would like to date a Rabbit with a crossdressing problem...*holds a photo of Samuel....in a dress...clearly photoshopped*

Samuel: hey, gimme that! *snatches the photo* Oh come on...this isn't even convincing! It's like you went into paint and just cut out a picture of a dress and put it on my christmas pic! *holds the picture up* Another testament to Romero's 'honest news coverage' ladies and gentlemen! Let's have a non-existent round of applause! *points at Romero*

Romero: alright alright....that pic is satire...but what about....*looks at Samuel with a grin* The conjoined Fox twins? heheheh

Samuel: Oh right, I forgot you have the most gross and creepy fantasies at times...*tosses the photo behind him, letting it flutter away* Is it time for real news yet?

Romero: *clears his throat and regains his composer* this is the real news rabbit.....why don't you tell everyone about your uncle Bugs....and how you come from wealth....

Samuel: *annoyed expression* Fine...let's go through with that then. Everyone, my father is a fictional cartoon rabbit and he shares with me his vast glorious fortune with which there would be no need to come to a school like this so I just show up to stir up trouble and scew Romero's "True and Honest" content... */sarcasm*

Romero: ADDMITANCE!!!! You see that my fellow students of Little Tokyo!?!? He thinks we are a joke....He thinks we are stupid!

Samuel: If by 'we' you mean 'I, Romero Anchovy', then yes, I do. *sigh* Is there a way to just...I dunno, mute him and cut his image out?

Panzer sits and stares blankly at both Romero and Sammy.

(Oh, I love you guys. This is EXACTLY what I was waiting for.  :-* I'll be posting up something tonight.)

(lol for us to go at eachother's throats? we do that on the daily....just ask kit....lol)

*** Meanwhile... All throughout the school... ***

The confusion amongst the students was growing, as well as the chuckles and giggles at the events going on in the news cast.
The laughter roared with talk of Romero's Tu-Tu.
Tears dropped with giggles with the photo-shopped sight of Samuel in dress.
 
It only stood to reason that once they started paying attention, it was too late.
From out of nowhere, everywhere there was a TV turned on to the news cast, Coconut Custard Pies with whipped cream began pelting students and faculty left and right.

*** Back at the News Cast... ***

Just as Romero and Samuel were getting ready to start up again, the door burst open.
In the doorway stood Ms. Anari, wearing a cloak, and what appeared to be clown makeup. On her face rested a big red rubber nose, and tucked under her arm was a duffel bag with a rubber chicken sticking out of the top.

Ms. Anari : What the!? What are you kids doing here!? This room was supposed to be empty!

Behind Anari a group of students flee through the hallway, screaming.

Dash crossed his arms...and gave Farah a slightly incredulous look

Dash: Overtaken by evil? HA! Nothing is taking me over hon...I was just working off some frustration after a run in with those crazy cats at the school "news" so I decided to practice my kata since I had a free period. And you can tell that "friend" of yours that nothing is taking this cat over and you can take that to the bank. Believe me...if anything takes me over I'll be the most surprised at it

Meanwhile at Seia house, a cat-girl girl was sleeping over a couch. There was something weird about the feline, she had two white horns in her head, and since when cats have horns? Plus she was black with red stripes. She was covered with a blanket, happily sleeping like she had no worries in the world. Her usual dark blue dress had been replaced by a blue T-shirt and a pair of jeans, she had refused to wear any shoes or socks, so she was barefooted.

Then it seemed like her dreams where turning into nightmares, and the girl, whose name was Roma, woke up screaming...

*************************

Farah looked at Dash with her arms crossed "See? Its stupid, but that cat girl has horns, and they aren't made o plastic, they are real. Whatever, I told you already, when I have to call a special team to shot you in the head because you turned evil, don't complain"

Farah was about to turn around and exit the gym when she got a call in her cell...

(Jack voice): Farah? Where the heck are you? the school is clown crazy again and I need you to take pics!

Farah then looked at Dash: OK, we can deal with this whole extra dimensional girl affair later; I got to work!

The fox girl turned her camera on and ran outside the gym...

Dash stopped and thought for a moment...

Dash: Clown Crazy...what did he mean by...EYAH!

With that he pulled out his phone and punched some numbers...

Dash: Speedy...yeah...I think she's back to her old tricks again...I dont think Guido will be too happy either...

Back in the make shift newsroom, at the same time Ms Anari burst into the room, the data pad on the table chirpped again.

Instead of Samuel's voice, it was Leon's coming from the speaker. "Yah guys, you might wanna look at this."

On the data pad, Leon was cycling through the video feeds from the school's security cameras.

(insert Kyo's description here)

At the sight of Mrs. Anari busting in dressed like a Clown Romero shot up from desk...

Romero: GAH!!! CLOWNS!!! It'S MY 12th birthday all over again!!!!

Romero panicking tried running away but wound up tripping over his anchor chair causing him to tilt forward and his "modified" pants ripping showing everyone his ninja Hot dog underwear he wore as he laid face first in on the ground in the open for everyone to see

*** Meanwhile... Outside the Gym's Maintenance Entrance... ***


Principal Tio : *Up to his kneck in a giant flan.* RRRR~! RRRRRRR~! ... *Sighs.* It's no use... *Looks next to him.* How about you Ms.Osaka?

Eyah : *Also up to her kneck in the giant flan.* Sorry Principal Tio. I've been trying to get out for the past 10 minutes.

Principal Tio : *Sighs* ... So how'd you end up down here? Why were you out by the Maintenance entrance to the Gym?

Eyah : Well... You see... I saw Ms. Anari walking back here with a bag... Being the curious devil I am, I followed her only to get pushed into this trap. What kind of teacher does that to a student Principal Tio!?

Principal Tio : *Rolls his eyes.* One who is going to have some explaining to do after I get out of here... *Starts struggling again.*

*** Meanwhile... At the Samurai Pizza Cat... ***

Speedy : *Comes rushing in.* Francine! Quick, we've got to find Guido and give him his meds.

Francine : Oh dear, did the doctor call about his condition again?

Speedy : Worse! The school's under clown attack!

Francine : EEPP! *Pulls out a box from under the counter, and a giant hammer.* Same drill as always!

Speedy : *Looks at the equipment.* What? No darts? No dirty magazines?

Francine : *Swings the hammer at Speedy, then props it on her shoulder.* Guido would never fall for the same trick twice! ... Besides, I haven't actually gone to get a new magazine for the kit. Sorry~

Speedy : *Smerks, turning around walking away.* Well then, I suppose I'll have to take the initiative~

Polly's hand came down swiftly onto Speedy's shoulder, stopping him cold.

Polly : Ohh~ I don't think so bucko~


*** Meanwhile... Back at the newsroom... ***

The camera focused on Romero's exposed pants... then back at Ms. Anari.
The room stood silent for what seemed like an eternity...

Ms. Anari : *Her eyes dart back and forth all over the scene...* I see what you kids are trying to do... *She reaches into her bag, and pulls out a can of whipped cream.* Just try to stop me! *She shakes it a few times, then tosses it into the room, running off down the hallway.*

The fox girl know as Farah or just "FG" almost crashed with Anari in the hallway, only her quick reflexes alowed her to duck the clown lady

Farah: Ok, smile!

Farah blinds Ms. Anari with several quick flashes of light from her camera as she takes a few pics, then runs to take cover in the library, she knows clowns never go to such a boring place.

Jack: Farah, did you take some pics?

Farah: Look Mister Black, all I got are a few close ups of Ms. Anari face with clown make up

Jack: So, I guess I should try to interview her now?

Farah: Yes, is your job!

Jack:But I don't have super-powers or anything... I  I am scared!

Farah: What about the time you dressed like a maid to fight clowns?

Jack: Well, do you see a maid outfit around here?

Farah: Point taken, So, I guess its up to the SPC now...

Jack: Well, I sure hope this place doesn't end being blow up... I hate when that happens.
 

The shaken can of whipped cream rolled into the room, strait toward Panzer. Being quickly aware of the situation, he exclaimed "get out it's gonna blow!" But he knew, he wouldn’t be able to do the same. So, he activated his mechanical shell. His limbs kicked inward and his head ducked into his chest as the panels of his shell, curved around him into a ball. In his metal sphere of safety, he waited for the sound outside of the can exploding, but it didn't come, not immediately. Not until he heard something rattling unstably inside his shell. Oh, hell no--BANG. All Panzer saw was white, first from the instantaneous amount of cream, and later from being knocked out of consciousness.

Those outside his personal sanctuary, only heard a muffled pop, and saw cream oozing out of the cracks in Panzer's armour. At the same time, Leon's presence on Sammy's data pad vanished. He was now on stand-by mode until Panzer would recover.

Dash went into the locker room and called Speedy

Dash: Speedy...did you...oh you told the others...ok...Guido is out on a delivery...well that's good...TO THE SCHOOL?!? You guys gotta get down here...quick...if he spots Eyah...or whoever the heck is up to all this...we're gonna be cleaning up a whole lot more than whipped cream pies everywhere...I'll armor up and meet you guys at the entrance.

Dash opened his locker and pulled out his umbrella...

I hoped I wouldnt have to do this again at school...sigh...with that he pointed his umbrella skyward and transformed into his battle armor and went to meet the others at the school entrance.

Romero got up looking at his pants now ripped then his eyes darted at Samuel

Romero: YOU! YOU DID THIS DIDN'T YOU!!!! WELL WHO NEEDS YOU! WHO NEEDS ALL OF YOU!!!

Romero picked himself up and walked out of the room....then walked back in...

Romero: I'm taking my cup too *grabs cup* Now i'm out of here....

he gets to the door way then walks back

Romero: And this pen *takes a pen off the desk* have to write that english paper.....NOW I'm out of here!!!

He walks out and slams the door behind him catching his tail in the door

Romero: AAAAHHHHHH!!!!! *pulls his tail out and leaves*

Samuel was covered head to toe in white cream, only his eyeballs and ears were visible from beneath the gooey mound, turning and watching as Romero stormed out...

Samuel: *groan* At least it'll be quieter in here without windbag Romero...*starts sliding the stuff off* What a mess...so annoying...

(Paging Kyo...I know I cant do anything until the SPC get to the school...)

(Sorry bout that folks. Got sucked up in Portal 2.)

*** Meanwhile... At an arcade uptown... ***


Guido : So... *Cricking his neck.* You think you have what it takes to take me on eh?

?? : *Stretching.* Ohh, you know it bad boy. I ain't afraid of you~

Guido : *Cracks his knuckles.* ... A catch like me has never backed down from a challenge. Let's do this!

Announcer : Players, ready.... DANCE!

On the left was Guido, bustin fresh moves. On the right, a female college coed bustin fresh moves of her own.
The game, Dance Dance Revolution. The stakes for the gal, the large pizza bill.
The stakes for Guido, a date with the gal.

Guido : *In his natural element.* Watch me now~ Watch me~!


*** Meanwhile... Back in the Nurse's Office. ***

Grams : *Quickly standing up, hearing the screams through the hallway.* Oh no...

Nurse Arisa : Oh dear...

Both rush to the door, opening it. Groups of students running, covered in pie crust & goo pass by.
They both begin making their way past the students to the cafeteria.

Grams : *Grunts.* Haven't been in a crowd like this since I went to see the... WHO!

Nurse Arisa : *Gently moving through the students, trying to avoid pushing.* Oh~! When were they in Little Tokyo? Why didn't you invite me?

Grams : No~! *Both make it into the almost-empty cafeteria.* Who is that!?

A tall figure stood before them... An afro sat on-top of his head, and a sly grin was on his face. In both hands he had what looked like over-sized potato launchers.

The Afro Clown : Heh... Why hellooo~ Ladies~ *Brings his arms up.* *CLICK... CLICK...* Ready to show an old winter green how ya move?

Just then ANOTHER NURSE and  DOCTOR happened to be walking in the hallway...  ignoring the chaos around them

Nurse So doctor, do we still work here or what?

Doctor Its complicated, but basically, once I got the samples on that Beta subject, and a private company bought the Omega, we just need to find the Alpha, but as we have no idea where or who the Alpha is, they decided to cut out funds to minimum.

Nurse  So, we where fired, thats why the school hired that Nurse that is not me?

Doctor We where not fired, we still have a job, just not in this school, unless the Aplha happens to be here. But so far, there has no be natural leader that could be the Alpha.

***********************

Meanwhile in other part of the school, five bunny girls where dressed in pink ninja outfits with the Little Tokyo High logo in it

 Sarah, the girl with green eyes: Boss, please, this school is not ready to see bunny ninjas again...

Ann, the girl with glasses, and black hair tied in a ponytail:  I agree, we have not interfered before, why now?

Rine: A) Because these outfits are not as revealing as the cheerleader ones, B) Because this principal and teachers impersonation has gone to far C) Because we promised And D) Because it will be fun!

Jenny, the blonde: Its fine for me, as long as that cute boy Dash doesn't think we are still the bad ones
 
Rine: So, what do you think Hikari?

Hikari: Boss, why the outfits have to be so... sexy?

All the ninjas happen to have tight outfits that revealed their curves

Rine: You did not complain about the cheerleaders outfits, right? Besides its a weapon of mass distraction!

*** Meanwhile... in the Cafeteria... ***

The fight had been going on for minutes, neither side seemed to be letting up.
On one side was the Afro Clown with his pie launchers...
On the other side was Grams and Nurse Arisa...

Arisa : *Looking over at Grams.* So now that we've got him where we want him~ *Dodges a few more pies with an impressive back-flip.* What should we do?!

Grams : *Does a few flips herself in a row... * What we need is a distraction... *Bends as far back as she can, narrowly avoiding another shot, when suddenly a loud CRACK can be heard.* O_O ... My back!

The Afro Clown : *Grins.* Heh heh... Bah bah Granny~

As he points his pie gun at Grams, a loud scream could be heard, followed by a loud CRASH, and vibrations felt through the floor.

The Afro Clown : *Turns his head towards an adjacent wall.* What the!?

Arisa : Hah!

All the clown saw was a fist, some stars, then black.


*** Meanwhile... In another classroom... ***

Polly : *Slowly emerges from some rubble, coughing slightly.* *COUGH, cough.* Fuu..... I swear... One of these days I'm going to take Francine to target practice myself! *Puts her hands on her hips, then surveys the room.* Well... no sign of trouble heeeEEEERRRR~!?

As she said that, TV cables from the nearly wrecked TV in the room wrapped around her, and began pulling her towards the screen.

Polly : HEY! Watch where you're going there bucko! *Faced with a situation some females would be obviously upset about, she pulled her arm back, then smashed her fist straight through the TV.*

TV : ZZZTTT!!!

Sparks shot out everywhere... followed by a large poof of smoke...

Polly : *Not being pulled anymore, she begins clawing her way free from the cords.* Stupid, STUPID, TV cords, I never, never liked you!

Back with the ninjas...

Ozu: I will not give up, I have to learn that duplication technique!

oMa: But oZu, you broke your arm and that's not even a real ninja technique, it was just a movie!

Ozu: Nosence, Shinobi Koi is a real ninja!

Oma .Not this again....is a damn cartoon fish, it CANT BE REAL!

Ozu: Says the talking bunny!

OMa: Is a COSTUME!

Errr, not those ninjas!

Now... the five bunny girls where busy fighting... something!

It was a creature made of some kind of goo, actually jelly, but it was a jelly that tasted like broccoli, so no one wanted to eat it... and Rine, the "Boss" bunny girl was stuck inside the jelly monster!
 
Hikari, the Boss assistant: Boss, I will eat you free!
 
Rine (Hurry up)
 
Sarah, the bunny girl with green eyes: Yuck!

Jenny, the blonde bunny girl: Argg, we are supposed to be fighting evil, not eating expired  broccoli jelly!

Hikari: Less complaining and more eating!

Meanwhile at the school rooftop... the ANOTHER NURSE and  DOCTOR happened to be looking the fight using a private security camera

ANurse: Doctor, A jelly monster? But Its not a food madness this time!

Doctor: I just didn’t have my fifty foot clown bot ready... besides this clowns stuff is a rerun anyway...

ANurse:  So, one of those bunnies is supposed to be the Alpha or what?

Doctor: You see any of those girls shoting lazers beams from her eyes?

ANurse: Ehh... no?

Doctor: Then no one of them is the Alpha... but that jelly expired anyway, so its not a great loss....

Dash: Where the heck are they?

His answer soon arrived as a couple of twinkles in the sky appeared in front of him and then a few moments later two flailing figures could be seen...

Dash: Uh oh...looks like Francine was a little off again...

Guido and Speedy went straight into the ground about 500 yards from the school and due to the impact burrowed right up to the front steps where they stopped with a distinct "THUD"

Speedy: We have to hire someone else to fire the cannon...he said as he spit out a mouthful of dirt

Guido: I agree...or at least more comprehensive health insurance

Dash: Have you guys seen Polly?

Guido: Not since we launched...she may be already inside...let's go find her.

With that the boys went into the school to meet up with Polly and possibly Dash's grandmother

*** Inside the school... ***

Guido : *Leading Speedy & Dash.* Come on you slow pokes! *Turns around and begins running backwards.* I've seen freshmen run faster than you ~ ... *Suddenly stops.* Why hellooo~!

His attention easily diverted away from the task at hand, he began running back the way they'd just came.

Guido : Hey darlin, wait up! *Rushes backwards, taking a corner.* I promise I don't bite! I'm here to save you!

Speedy : *Catching up along with Dash.* Hey! Guido! I swear he does this every time~ Guido! We've got a job to do here!

Guido : *Stops in front of a door.* I hear ya Speedy. *He holds his hand up, stopping Speedy and Dash as they caught up.* You'd both better leave this to me. *Cricks his kneck.* I'm a professional. *He walks up to the door, placing his hand on the handle.* Never fear darlin, your knight in shining armor is here...

As Guido started opening the door, a loud should could be heard coming from inside...

Ms. Anari : You'll never take me alive!!!!

With that, the door flew off it's hinges, taking Guido with it as a high-pressure stream of whipped cream sent both flying into the wall, and continued pouring out of the room.

Guido : *Holding the door in front of him with all his might.* WAHHH!!! What the!?

Speedy : *Snickers.* Watch closely Dash, after all, Guido is the expert.

Guido : Hey! Would you guys quit yammering and help me!?!


*** Meanwhile... In the flan trap outside the Auxiliary Gym.***

Eyah : *Looks at her watch after hearing the loud bangs.* ... Yep, that should be enough for now... *She smiles, looking over at the exhausted & sleeping Principal Tio.* Well Principal Tio, it's been fun, but I've really got to go. *Smles deviously.* You understand, a convincing alibi is desperately needed with that Dash always nosing around. *She slowly climbs out of her "trap", then flaps her wings and exits the hole.* Now... While they're all busy with that fool teacher Ms. Anari... *Begins sneaking towards the school, entering in through a window.*

Dash turned to Speedy

Dash: Ok, Im gonna help Guido, you see if you can find Polly. I have a feeling I know who is behind all this but I dont want to show my cards on it just yet.

*** Meanwhile... In another part of the school... ***

Polly : *Dusting off her shoulders as she walks down a hallway.* Phew... I swear, it seems like TVs come with more and more cables every year. *Her ears perk up.* ~?

Polly quickly presses her body against a wall behind a vending machine.

Eyah : *Quietly slinking in the doorway at on the opposite end from Polly, she closes the door.* Here we go... Not a single person in the halls... *Giggles 'n Snorts.* Oh this is going to be worth it.

Polly : *Swiftly shadows Eyah, not making so much as a peep.*


*** Moments later... In the Principal's Office... ***

Eyah : *Enters, closing the door behind her.* Yes... Now... *Walks into a back room full of filing cabinets.* Now... *Begins rummaging.* School transfer forms... and Student records... Come here my dearies, where oh where are you at?


*** Meanwhile... In another part of the school... ***

Speedy : POL~LY~.... Hey POL~LY! *Folds his arms, pondering as he walks.* Usually she's gotten back with the group by now... Either she's stumbled upon a nefarious plot, or she's eatin in the cafeteria. ... *Laughs, smiling brightly.* That's it!

He began dashing off, quickly turning a corner.

Grams : *Extremely surprised.* GRACIOUS!

Nurse Arisa : *Panicked.* VILLAIN! *Smacks Speedy over the head with a yard stick.*

Farah Gail the fox girl walked by as if nothing wrong was going on, strangely for her, she was wearing a cheerleader outfit, she noticed the poor Speedy on the ground.

FG: Excuse me, but I think you just hit one of the samurai pizza cats...

Farah showed them her autographed SPC poster, and of course Speedy was in it...

FG: Now... any of you have any idea of what to do with those damn clowns? Me and the girls have to train our new cheerleader routine but we cant if the school is under clowns attack!

Romero was relaxing in Anari's class room having found her hidden stash of treats and comic books he was quite content.

Romero: heh..i'll just wait for it all to blow over....yep...piece o cak- err i mean pie....hehehe *flips a page and leans back in the chair*

(OOC: Finally...some action)

The whipped cream had finally died down and Dash and Guido were able to force the door back in place.

Dash: Man! Now I know why they warn people about contents being "under pressure"...
Guido: Youre tellin me. Dont think I'l be topping anything with the stuff in the near future...
Dash: C'mon, we gotta go help Speedy

With that they raced down the hall and turned a corner only to run into a couple familiar faces...

Dash: I know he's around here...WHAM!
Guido: You need to watch where youre...WHAM!
Dash: Who the heck did we just...GRAMS! SPEEDY!
Grams: Dash...is that you?
Nurse Arisa: Wait you know this...(realizes who she knocked out) oops...
Dash: Oh great...and with some clown running around...oh no...
Guido: Did you say...clown...(his face slowly burning up)

Despite the roaring chaos and general sense of panic in the hallways, Samuel stormed his way upstream in the river of fleeing students, determined to track down a certain cat with a hole in his pants.

Samuel: *covered and dripping in cream* When I get my hands on that dark furred, lanky, good for nothing piece of sh-

There was a rumble that shook the floors, the stream of students thinning in front...but now he could see why. The flood of whipped cream oozing and molding its way through the hall before him was more than enough reason to change his priorities.

Samuel: On second thought...he's...off the hook this time! *turns and joins the mob*

*** Meanwhile... Back in Principal Tio's Office... ***

Eyah : Ahh~ Pay dirt. *Pulls out various manilla envelopes, as well as forms, placing them onto Principal Tio's desk.* Yes... Yes... That should do it. Now... *Leaves the office for a moment, going into the reception area.* Now for the official notoriety stamper...

Polly : *Slowly emerges from the shadows, quickly moving over to the desk, she places a container down on the desk, picking up another that was already there, then proceeds to look over the paperwork.* -=Transfer forms... Student files... Is that what this was all about!?=-

Eyah : *From the other room.* Stupid lock! *Grabs it, concentrates, her hand begins to glow, and the lock shatters.* There!

Polly : *Looks up briefly, then swiftly goes back into hiding.*


*** Meanwhile... back with our group of heroes... ***

Guido : *Dashing through various hallways, opening and closing doors quickly.* WHERE ARE YA! COME OUT HERE AND FIGHT LIKE A CAT! I KNOW YOU'RE IN HERE!!

Grams : *Watching, slightly impressed.* Well now, that set fire to his shorts didn't it?

Nurse Arisa : *Nods* That it did... I hope the student actors canceled their play practice today.

Dash asked Nurse Arisa for some smelling salts and he cracked them open under Speedy's nose

Speedy: MEEEOWW! That smells stronger than the sardine and liverwurst special Francine tried last week...
Dash: Good to see you awake Speedy...Guido knows about...
Speedy: Uh oh...
Nurse Arisa: He acts like this often?
Speedy: Guido has a severe dislike of clowns...(I forget which RP it is...Kyo if you can post a link to it...)
Grams: Well we better find him before he hurts someone
Dash: I hope Polly is having better luck...

Meanwhile...

Polly: You are going to be in for quite a surprise when you get back to your little hideout little missy...

(Edit : Here you are kind sir. http://www.edoropolis.org/forums/index.php?topic=1437.0 (http://www.edoropolis.org/forums/index.php?topic=1437.0) KZ~)

(Guys, I'm going to have to step out for a while. I'll be back eventually, I've just got some family problems that are hitting close to home. For now, feel free to end this however you dudes would like & start up another RP if you wish. Catch you folks later, & take care.  ;) )

(Did you guys really forget about this? Good thing I caught it just in time.)

nobody's really touched it since Kyo's post...I havent out of my respect for him though

Noah, no one's forgotten about this thread, nor is it in any danger of disappearing. I've been busy dealing with a personal matter.


Thank you Dash. I greatly appreciate it. If I find some time tonight I'll try to get something new up.

*** Meanwhile... Back in Principal Tio's Office... ***

Eyah : *Quickly scribbling through various sheets, faking various signatures.* These classmates have been interfereing in too many devious plans. *Looks up, then back down at the desk.* If I were to do anything else here, they'd no doubt stop me... *Looks up at the batch of finished forms.* Therefore... *Begins stamping them with the official notoriety seal.* Let's see them stop me from different schools! *As she finishes stamping them, she seals all of the documents into an envelope.*

A chirping sound echoes through the room...

Eyah : O_o Eh!? *Looks at her wristwatch, eyes going wide.* Oh blast! *She begins pressing a few buttons on her watch.* Once this is over I'm going to get those girls for not keeping that beast occupied! *Her watch begins glowing yellow, then red.* Attention all TV sets. Get the Pizza Cats. Stop them at all costs!


*** Meanwhile... An enraged Guido goes from room to room, seeking out the clown menace. ***


Guido : CLOWN!? ... No... *Goes to another door, slamming it open.* CLOWN!? ... No... *Goes to another door, slamming it open.* CLOWN!?

Ms.Anari : *Dressed in her clown outfit, she's fending off a TV set with a rubber chicken.* Back! Back! *Looks over at Guido, fear in her eyes.* Well don't just stand there pretty boy, help me!

Guido : *His eyes flash red.* Ohh... I'll help you little lady...

The door slid closed behind him, followed by a crash, a shriek, and an explosion.


*** Meanwhile... With our group of heroes... ***


Speedy : *Sneezes.* Seriously Nurse, what was in that stuff? I haven't sneezed this hard since Princess Vi's "I Love Flowers" parade!

Grams : Shh! *Listening carefully.* Do you kids hear that?

From out of all the various classrooms, TV sets begin crashing through the doors, and begin slowly marching towards the group.

Speedy : *Reading his sword.* My mother always told me Television was bad for ya~

Dash looked at Grams then mouthed "ready?" Grams winked at him, then they grabbed hands and leapt into the air. Grams fired Dash at the TV sets coming towards them and shouted "HYPER MODE, ACTIVATE!" Dash's armor immediately turned from black and orange to purple and gold and his sword ignited. He slashed the TV and it exploded to bits.

Speedy: My turn! (Activates the Magical Ginzu Sword and slashes another TV)
Polly: Me next! (Grabs Speedy's sword and does her Heartbreaker finisher and destroys another TV)
Grams: Hey dont let me miss out on the fun. Dash, toss me your sword (Dash complies) ELECTRIC CYCLONE! (Grams leaps into the air, splits Dash's sword into two like Speedy's MGS, spins around and flies at another TV, slashing it in half and destroying it)
Dash: HYPER SOLAR SHOT! (Fires a fireball and destroys another TV)

SPeedy: Grams, you and Nurse Arisa go help the other students. Polly, you and I will take care of Eyah. Dash, you power down and try to get a hold of Guido.
Dash: you got it (powers down his armor and heads back to the Pizza Cat to try and get Francine's help in reaching Guido)

(I'll be working on a post tomorrow night.)

The team split up going in various directions.

*** Meanwhile... ***

Guido : *Dragging out Ms. Anari.* Well *Cough, cough.* Why didn't you just say it was an after school job Anari?

Ms.Anari : *Cough, cough.* Because I know how much you hate clowns Guido! Don't you remember what happened last time I invited you over!?

Guido : Hey~ It wasn't my fault. That doll had it coming!

Ms. Anari : My uncle Stan gave me that!

Guido : You're uncle'd get it too if you just gave me his address...


*** Meanwhile... Back with Speedy and Polly... ***

Polly : *Leading Speedy.* This is where I last left her! *She gets ready to open the door.* Say... just out of curiosity... How'd you know Eyah was behind it all?

Speedy : *Shrugs.* It seemed to be a logical explanation... *Readies himself... then stops for a moment...* Oh, by the way, why did you leave your hiding spot to come and get us? You could've had the drop on her.

Polly : *Rolls her eyes.* Let's just do this Speedy!

Polly turned the doorknob, throwing the door open. Speedy dashed inside, slashing at a TV on his left, and a TV on his right.
Polly followed suit, scratching and punching various TVs fiercely...

Eyah : *In the principal's office... hearing the commotion outside... a sly smirk on her lips as she seals an envelope.* Right on time...

Speedy : *Walks up to the Principal's door.* Alright Eyah! Come on out! We know you're in there!

Eyah : *Inserts the envelope into a container...* Hey! I know you're both out there too! *Looks up.* Isn't that great?

Speedy : A wise gal huh? *Slashes the door to pieces.*

Eyah : *Sighs...* You know... You could've just opened the door... *She drops the container into a vacuum tube with a loud SHLURP!* I give up you two... *Holds her arms out.* Take me in~ <3

Dash bursts into the Pizza Cat and races back toward Francine's office

Dash: FRANCINE! FRANCINE! GUIDO...
Francine: What about Guido?
Dash: (Goes into hysterics honking his nose and hitting himself in the face)
Francine: Uhh Dash...do you need counseling?
Dash: THERE'S CLOWNS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL AND GUIDO IS TRYING TO FIND THEM!
Francine: Uh oh...oh by the way, I was waiting for a message from Big Al when something popped out of the mail tube in the kitchen...(shows Dash the tube Eyah had just sent off earlier)
Dash: Huh...well what is that?
Francine: I dont know but I think you might want to hold onto it...
Dash: You got it (takes the tube from Francine and puts it in his backpack) Now you think you can get a hold of Guido?
Francine: Well I did have a chip secretly implanted in his helmet after the last clown incident...it normally allows me to track him and Speedy on deliveries in case they go off and try to hit on Lucille...but I can send an electric shock that temporarily disables them...Maybe I can try that...dont need him hurting anyone
Dash: Did you fit me with one of those?
Francine: No! See you already HAVE a girlfriend so I dont have to worry about you
Dash: Alright let's do it
Francine: thankfully its a dead period so we will have time to get this done before the dinner service.

So Dash and Francine head into the back where the console that Francine launches the Pizza Cats from is located...

Dash: Whoa...this is nice...
Francine: Well that is what happens when youre the most popular pizza restaurant in Little Tokyo AND secretly the greatest superhero team in Little Tokyo...
Dash: Think you could launch me back to the school once youre done?
Francine: Sure...just hop in one of the ovens and I'll make it happen.

Francine punched a few buttons and then flipped a blue switch

Francine: There...the impulse is sent. Guido should feel it almost immediately
Dash: Thanks Francine (hops in one of the ovens)

Francine:

To all of the people
Who see a great flash
Dont worry of fret
Its our dearest friend Dash
And just so you think if he's not very cool
He's on his way
right back to high school!

Kaboom!

With that Francine launched Dash back to the school to meet with the others, and make sure that Guido isnt doing anymore damage

(paging KyoZaber...paging KyoZaber...please pick up the white courtesy telephone...)

Anybody?  :huh:

Yep, I'm here Dash.
I'll work on a post on Sunday. I'm busy with a family Christmas gathering tomorrow, and my eyes are feeling heavy tonight.
... Not to mention I'm blowing all of the cobwebs off of my account here. ^^;

**Sunday Night Edit**

Ok Dash, I see where we're at. I'll spend tomorrow getting a post sketched out.

Dash landed back at the school just as Speedy and Polly were escorting Eyah out from the the school.

Speedy : Took ya long enough to get back here squirt! *Slaps Eyah on the back.* See? Nothin to worry about!

Eyah : *A smug smile is on her face... * Oh yes... I've been caught. *Feins worry.* My evil plan has been foiled... PAH! Did you cats really think I had not planned on being captured!? Right now... as I speak... the true nature of my plan is coming to fru~ *Eyah's eyes spot the tube canister Dash's holding.* ... Bu... How... *She points at Dash, screaming.* WHAT DID YOU DO!?

Principal Tio : *Dressed in a gym instructors uniform 3 sizes too large, emerges from the main school building.* Ugg... That stench is never going to come out... *Clears his throat.* The true question Ms. Osaka is did you truly know what tubes you were using?

Eyah : *Turns around, pointing now at Principa Tio.* What are you babbling about Principal? You know as well as I do that those tubes in your office go STRAIGHT to the castle's education office. NO detours, NO stops, I WIN! *Points back at Dash.* HOW IS IT HE HAS THE TRANSFER PAPERS I FORGED!?!

Principal Tio : *Looks at Dash, then noticing a wink from Polly Ester, he just smerks.* Well... I guess divine intervention sounds plausible. *He walks up to her, looking her straight in the eye.* Those tubes are quite old my dear. For such a dashing, and well thought out plan, you should've just used a private courier. Your boyfriend Romero probably would've gotten those documents anywhere you needed them to go, and would've been none the wiser.

Eyah : *Clutching her fists in anger.* It was FOOL PROOF! I set up the sale of old fake AV equipment... I create monsters out of the TVs using the chaos energies from Romero and Samuel... *Her form shifts to that of Camma.* I get those blasted ninja sisters out of my hair... *She returns to normal.* While the school was in chaos I take you out... give myself an alebi... then I sneak in... and transfer EVERYONE out of this blasted school to my own! You would've all been out of my way... *She drops to her knees... then pounds the ground with her clenched fists.* It was FOOL PROOF!

Principal Tio : *Sighs.* No evil plan is fool proof Ms. Osaka. Perhaps one day you will see that. However, not here. *He nods to Speedy & Polly.*

With that, Speedy and Polly take hold of Eyah, and vanish out of sight.

Principal Tio : Well Dash, let's go find Ms. Anari and Mr. Anchovy.  *Looks at the torn apart building, smirking.* It's going to be a long weekend.


(Ok folks, it's that time! We're in wrap-up / epilogue mode. If there's anything that still confuses you, speak up!   :-*  I'll write / post an epilogue near the end of the week.)

Dash: Another emergency school board meeting then Mr Tio?
Principal Tio: (sigh) sadly yes...seems we have a couple of those a semester around...
Dash: I'll call the construction company sir...

As they were headed toward the building, Ms Anari came racing out

Ms Anari: Get away from me! I have no idea what you are talking about!
Guido: You know perfectly well what Im talking about clown...now come back here so I can take that funny out of you

The two went racing off toward the soccer field on the other side of campus...
Dash: Well...I guess we dont have to worry about finding those two anymore (races off after them)
Principal Tio: (sigh) some things don't ever change...(heads into the building)
