| team eight - THE FURRY NINJAS Rytalin, Algernon, and Naughty Kitty stood outside the greenhouse. "Let's try the front door." said Ryt. "That didn't work, let's try the skylight." said Kitty. "NO NO NO, let's go in by the air vents." said Alg. They continued to argue untill.... "DUCK." hissed Ryt. They dived behind a bush as Heather walked down the path. She walked to the greenhouse and umlocked the door. "Well, I quess we'll have to try another night." said Alg. "Let's try now." said Kitty. "Are you crazy, did you see what she did to Tyrathca and the Kais??" said Ryt. They agrued some more, not noticeing the large shadow that was creeping towards then from behind. The loud growling finnaly got their attentions. They turned and looked right into three pairs of very angry eyes. A few minutes later, it was all over. Naughty Kitty was clinging to the top of a tree, Alg was hiding down a rabbit hole and Ryt was high-tailing it back to the castle, minus a part of his pants. It was a quiet night inside the APEC castle. Everyone was sitting afound the table, many had lost their appitiet. Just then, Heather walked in, carrying a small bag and wareing a big smile on her face. Several ladies groaned and none would look at her. Heather stood at the head of the table, sat her bag down on it and looked around. No one said anything. "I'm sorry." said Heather. Everyone looked up, shocked. "I'm sorry for what I put you all threw, but it was nessesary, really it was." said Heather, not smiling anymore. "I suppose I should tell you just what I've been hiding from you all?" Everyone watched as Heather opened the bag, pulling out what looked like a flare gun and a locked metal box. She sat them on the table. "As you all know, we've been having some security problems, so I felt it was nessesary to keep this project of mine secret untill it was complete.." said Heather, "Dgre, could you come up her please." Dgre stood up relucktently and walked to the head of the table. Heather opened the metal box, with a hiss of white vapors. Inside was three red cillenders and three blue. Heather picked up one of the blue ones, it was about two inches long and one wide. She loaded it into the small gun and turned to dgre. Dgre eyed the flare style gun wearaly. Heather smiled. "Don't worry dgre, I won't hurt you." said Heather, taking aim at dgre. "Why don't I belive you?" said dgre. Heather fired. The cartridge shot out towards dgre. A few feet from her the caseing exploded. What looked like a tangle of wire shot out. Dgre had bearly begun to scream when the wirey stuff hit her, wraping around her body, contracting. Dgre strugled and fell over. Everyone gasped. Heather smiled. "That my friends is out newest weapon agenst Nadless and his Anti-Kais. Meet the Devil's Snare." said Heather. With a start, they relized what they were looking at wasn't a bundle of wires but vines, a mass of living vines. MyKai had rushed forward and was trying to free dgre, with no luck. The vines wouldn't give. Heather stepped over. "Here let me." She bent down and ran one finger lightly over the thick clump of vines. The plant shivered, it relaxed it's vines, it rolled itself back up becoming a tiny cillender of green/blue again. She picked it up. MyKai helped dgre to her feet. "This is actully not the original Devil's Snare. The original plant is far to large and dangerous to work with. I was able to bred a smaller and less dangerous version of the plant." said Heather, sliping the bundle of vines into a new casing and back into the metal box. "So all this, the traps, the baring music, the stink bomb thing, that.... that beast in the greenhouse was all over a plant???" gasped Twilight. "Well, ya, you could say that." said Heather. The room erupted into shouting. MicroMary slamed a goblet down on the table, getting everyone's attention. "Look at you all, Heather had just handed us an invaluable weapon in our fight agenst Nadless and your mad about it." shouted Micro, "I for one am glad about this, we need all the help we can get. If you had just kept your noses out of her buisness none of those things would have happened to you." Everyone got very quiet. Dgre looked over at Heather. "I'm sorry." said dgre quietly. One by one they all apologised. "It's ok, really. Besides it was worth it to see Ryt running away minus the seat of his pants." Heather giggled. Heather eeeped as a bunch of grapes flew past her ear. She grabed up a hand full of mashed potatos and lobed it at VisionAri. The room desolved into a food fight. No one was spared. Everyone was waring their dinners and laughing. Ahhhhh, back to "normal". THE END |
