| Chapter 17 - Holli Within the woods, the travelers experienced many perils.� They fought dragons and wildebeasts, and even a blue centaur looking thing with a scorpion tail that seemed to be under the control of a small grey slug that wrapped around his head.� They fought bravely, using a new power they had acquired from War Prince Elfangor...The power to morph.� But, there was a limit in this power, you can only stay in morph for 2 hours--or you'll become a nothlit. Pen found this out the hard way, morphing into a pencil. But they battled bravely, and the casualties were low--in fact, not even Rosey died.� Damn shame though... Finally, the group reached the end of the woods, only to find that they were blocked by a large fence.� Suddenly, Crayak had an idea.� "Hey, you know, I just remembered, I could get us over this fence in a jiff!" "What??� You could have done that a long time ago, and you didn't??!!"� Roses exclaimed. "Yes."� the fourth dimensional being said, moving to hide behind Rosey. "Well--we had an adventure along the way, at least me and Ty did."� Holli winked at Ty, who smiled proudly. "Well do it already, flying nun boy!"� Jaina exclaimed. "Okay, okay, come on, get in a circle, and hold hands." "Does anyone else feel like a hippi?"� Ty said as they did as Crayak instructed. "Now, close your eyes." "Wait a minute, I am standing next to Rosey--I am NOT closing my eyes."� Roses stated. "Whatever could you mean, Roses?"� Rosey smiled innocently as his hand began to wander to her shoulder. "That's it.� Ty, switch!" "But---then he'll do it to me?" "I don't care, move!" 'Yes, your majesty"� Ty mocked as he moved to stand between Holli and Rosey. "Okay, you guys done?"� Crayak sighed. "Yes."� The group shouted. "Then let's get into that tower!" BOOM!!� A light consumed the group.� It travelled up over the trees and in through a small window on the first floor. The girls bathroom... "Oh man, this is the mecca!"� Rosey exclaimed as he opened his eyes. Holli and Roses slapped him.� Jaina punched him in the arm.� "Ow!" "Perv!" the three girls yelled. "Um, I am betting we should get out of here as fast as possible,"� Ty's eyes were wide as he backed toward the door. "Wait a minute--I wanna inspect the grounds." "Rosey!� NO!!"�� The girls dragged him out, Crayak laughing. "Okay, so where are we, Roses?"� Jaina asked. "Um, the first floor---but we have to climb the tower to get the best signal." "So that means, we should find some rope, and find a villan so we can pretend to be the cast of Scooby Doo.� Hey Holli, I'll be Fred if you'll be Daphne!� Rosey can be Scooby."� Ty smiles evilly. "Hey, I don't wanna be a dog, can't I be Velma?" "Velma?"� Roses rolled her eyes. "Uh...I mean...uh...shut up!"� Rosey blushed as his Scooby fantasy had just been revealed. < |
