| Turning around, VA tossed a pillow at the cage, "SHUT UP!" It caught the pillow, pulled it threw the bars and proceeded to rip it to shreds. VA shivered and wondered what those things would do outside the cage. Suddenly the world turned on it's side. Shrieking, VA tumbled end over end across the floor. The parrots cawed, sending feathers flying. VA bounced around on her butt, pillows pelting her. They started piling up. Shoving a tiger print one away from her face, VisionAri hollered, "ODDBALL STOP IT!!!!!!!!" "Oops." Oddball stopped shaking the bottle. "Sorry, faerie lady." Oddball pouted, holding the bottle up to his face. Luckily, VA was too busy unburying herself to notice. After crawling her way out, VA looked up at Oddball. "It's ok, sweetie. I know your just trying to help." Oddball suddenly jumped to his feet, "Ooooo, Ooooooo, Gots idea, yup yup, Come on." Oddball grabbed the bottle and ran out the door. ***** "Oddball, have you seen VisionAri? I've looked all over for her." Oddball had found Kai10 walking the hallways. He nodded his head, not looking up. "She in here." He held up the bottle. Kai10 frowned, confused until he spotted a tiny VA waving at him from inside the bottle. Taking the bottle, he held it up to his face, looking at the quickly-loosing-her-patience faerie. "Uh Oh!!!" ***** "WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!" Oddball sit on the floor of VisionAri and Kai10's room, bawling his eyes out. VA covered her ears inside the bottle and Kai10 *tryed* to calm him down. "It's ok, Oddball, it's not your fault." Kai10 patted Oddball's shoulder. "But.. but.. faerie lady stuck." Oddball sniffled, wiping away his tears. "Oddball honey, it'll be ok." VisionAri said, hoping to advert another outburst. Kai10 looked up at her, where the bottle sat on a table. "Any ideas?" VA sighed, "None, this is a totally different type of magic. I don't know of anything we can use." At that, Oddball burst into tears again. Over Oddball's wailing, Kai10 barely heard the scratch at the door. Leaving a sobbing Oddball, he walked over and opened the door. Misty_Cat sat, very prim and proper, outside the door. Looking up with an air of indifference, she purred, "Some fashion disaster is here to see the nut case." With all seriousness, Kai10 replied, "Sorry, she can't come down right now." "I Heard That!!!!" The bottle vibrated alittle from the shout and Kai10 hide a smirk. Misty looked on disgusted before pointing one paw at Oddball, "No, the psycho boy over there." "Me??" sniffled Oddball. "Yes," Misty frowned, twitching her tail, "Some runway reject with an orange cane is downstairs." "IS HIM!!!" Oddball jumped up. "Bought bottle from him. Funny man it is!!!!" He grabbed the bottle and ran out of the room, almost running Misty over. VisionAri shrieked as she was bounced around inside the bottle. Kai10 ran after them. Misty humphed and walked away, "Stupid clones." The old man stood quietly in the Great Hall. Leaning on his orange cane, he seemed blissfully unaware of the stares and curious looks cast his way. He stuck out like a sore thumb in a bright yellow poncho, plaid kilt, purple army boots and pink bunny ears stuck to the top of his head. People around here were used to strange things but this guy was just plain weird! Several people dove out of the way, as Oddball charged into the hall, Kai10 not far behind. He skidded to a stop infront of the man. "AH, there you are young man. Thought maybe you'd gotten lost." the old man smiled, showing off the four teeth he had left. Oddball tried to say something, but his mouth wouldn't work, "Ah... I... er uh....eee....." He gave up and held the bottle up, showing a rumpled VisionAri, getting up after being bounced around. The old man nodded, frowning, "I thought this might have happened." He straightened himself and said calmly, "I'm sure by now, dear boy, you've realized that's no ordinary bottle." Oddball squeaked. "Yes, that is a genie bottle. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that the genie didn't go with it." The old man tapped his cane on the floor, "Genie come out." A loud raspberry was the only response. "GENIE, NOW!" Oddball and Kai10 jumped at the force in the old man's voice. There was a poof of white smoke. Genie brushed a strand of long black hair out of her eyes. Her skin was a deep red color, like wine. Her eyes were a dark brown, almost black. She pouted her full black lips and crossed her arms over her chest. Her lacey top and pants were zebra striped. Oddball stared at her, he never knew genies looked like that! She was pretty!! Genie glared at the old man, "Happy now?" "Yes," said the old man fiercely, "Behave yourself." "Your not my master anymore, you sold my bottle." Genie fairly growled |
