Dedicated to April, for her upcoming birthday April 20th! (yeah, the lucky shit has Gers birthday! LOL!!

Beta read? yeah right! like THATS ever gonna happen!!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Opening explanation. . .

Well its like this. We have the Friday chats in the IRC. Sometimes allot of you all come in and then other times its like you all fell off the planet! Soooo, this is my cheesy rationalization of what might have happened to all those that somehow never quite make it to those chats! So smoke em if you have em, lean back and read. . . . :) Its short so be thankful LOL!!!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Hmmmm" said Susan logging on to the IRC to have a nice fun time chatting with her UFish buds after a long hard week. It was well past the appointed chat time and still no sign of anyone.

"Did I get the wrong night? she wondered looking at the calendar. " Nope, its Friday all right. "Maybe I got the time wrong. Could happen since every clock in the house is on a different time!" But then she checked the time on the computer and sure enough, it was indeed chat time!

At least she was pretty sure, since that clock was on the wrong time as well! She sat there, alone in the dark room with nothing but the soft flicker of the computer screen to illuminate her troubled features. .

(Well, I guess your all wondering why all of a sudden Susan's words are flowing like syrup from a maple tree but I digress. . (G))

Suddenly the room filled with a strange glow. It surrounded her and then without warning, Susan was gone!!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . 1228 a cadre of knights has returned from the Crusades. . . .

"Susan blinked hard. "What the heck? am I really in a Fk ep? How the heck did I get here? and as long as I'm here. . . :) Knowing that Nick had to be at the head of the table she walked swiftly to the tall figure at the head of the table. The one with the huge pitcher of drink ,covering the face. "Oh man!! I don't know how this happened but I am not going to waste the opportunity!"

Her pulse pounded, the excitement was palpable as the cup lowered. . .

"What the heck? JULES?!!!!

"Susan bud!! did the IRC glitch send you here too? Then she went back to printing out the scene. . .

"Apparently so!! what the heck are you doing dressed in Nicks Crusader clothes, and if your here then". . . .

"Yeah, that's right, We are all here!" Said Sunny who along with the rest of the Knights were chowing down on ye olde Kentucky fried. .

One by one the buds that had gone missing from so many chats lifted their chain mail or was that their Email? to reveal themselves leaving greasy stains on the outfits since paper napkins weren't invented yet.

Laurie, Lora (Who wore a fantastic Crusader outfit made of custom leather), Megan,Janet,Sandra,Julia,Gail, who cam in and out bringing more platters of chicken plus the cole slaw and mashed potatoes. Nancy, Lorelei, (Who was dancing to lute music) Kelly, (Who came in dressed like a servant to bring in the dessert menu ,Rae and so many others !!!

"But wait a minute!! there is someone missing from the group here" said Susan looking around.

Just at that moment a figure stepped in from the shadows. . . dressed in a long black outfit. . .

"But if Janette was here, where was Nick?" she wondered. . .

Stepping into the light of the candles. . Susan heard the voice whisper "How badly do you want me in the chat?"

"APRIL!!!"!!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

PING! PING! PING!

Susan stirred. . rubbing her eyes she looked up at the computer screen. "Oh Man, must have fell asleep waiting for someone to show up in the chat!".

"Susan? I see your name listed in the chat room, can you see us?" Lorelei Typed.

Typing in she answered. "Yeah, I'm here!! but where have you all been?"

"Silly we were all here, but you were diverted someplace else" Jules typed in.

"No kidding!!" Susan said, more confused than she normally was. . . "So where exactly were you?" Asked Sunny (who begged for dialog of any kind in my story! hahahaha!!!

Susan looked down in her lap. . there was a half chewed piece of roasted fowl in her lap!

"OH my gosh!!" it wasn't a dream!! I was there!! and if I was there in then I must have awakened in another ep!!

(Susan secretly wished it was "Near Death" so she could see Nick in the see through knightie)

As she munched on the bird leg, a tall figure stepped in with April who for some really strange reason was still walking around in Janette's clothes. . .

Suddenly out of the shadows stepped a figure. . yellow eyes, fangs. . . "Good-evening Susan, we are going to be friends for a long time!". . . .

"Jules?????!!!!!!! "

FINI

Well, anyhow, see what happens when you don't show up for a chat? strange things, even stranger than actually coming to the chat and trying to have a sensible conversation with me!!

And so buds, we come to the conclusion of another strange story by Susan. I hope you all enjoyed it, and will join me by wishing April bud the happiest of birthdays this weekend!!

XOXOXOX Susan

P. S. anyone got a paper plate for this piece of chicken on my lap?
