Chat room adventures

They ran for the ship, poor Nutty following confusedly.

"Where were you guys!?" Chris called as they filed onto the ship. "Heather!"

"We went to get Heather, silly!" Bella replied, kissing his nose lightly.

"Well...psh...maybe I wanted to come with!" he challenged sarcastically.

"You were sleeping, dear," Bella replied, pushing him out of hte way gently.

"Oh..."

Nutty followed in a daze. She had no idea what was going on.
"Maybe I've been named well, after all." She muttered to herself.
Poking alice in the back, she asked "Are we in the highwind now? and where's everyone else?"

"Yes Nutty we're on the highwind, and I suspect that they're in the control pannel or the kitchen. I think Adam left some of his cookies in there."

"Cookies!" She shouted and ran down the way.

Alice chuckled and chased after her, wanting to get a couple too.

"Where ya goin?" Scipio asked as he followed her.

"Cookies!" Nutty shouted again.

"Want a couple?"

Nutty slid into the kitchen, and grabbed the cookie jar. Offering it to Alice and Scipio before grabbing one for herself. "Adam makes the best cookies. Ever."
She looked at the other two, thoughtfully munching on her cookie. "So," She pondered. "Does anyone have any idea what happened? Or is it one of those unexplained phenomena?"
Alice shrugged. "Don't look at me. I don't know."
Nutty grinned. "Unexplained stuff. Cool."

"I take it this sort of thing happens a lot?" Scipio asked, much calmer now that he had a cookie in his hand and his sister back in one piece.

"Yup," Nutty and Alice replied together.

"Something still doesn't feel quite right," Heather sighed as she entered the room and picked up one of the cookies.

"What?" Alice asked.

"There's no milk," Heather replied. "I can't eat cookies without milk."

Bella laughed, handing Heather a glass of milk.

"Better?" she asked, stealing a cookie.

"Yes, but you just took the best cookie!!"

"How do you know it's the best?"

"Because it was mine!" chuckling, Bella ate teh cookie. "NOOO!!" Heather cried jokingly.

Alice sat next to Scipio and leaned against him, "maybe we'll get a little bit of a break now and we can actually go find those blasted machines!" she flailed her arms around wildly nearly losing her cookie, and the empty glass sitting next to her.

"Smooth Alice," Bella commented.

Alice grinned in reply, "aren't I graceful?"

Scipio shook his head and put his arm around her. "No, just smooth."

Alice grinned again, "as always...I'd better go check on my weapons and make sure Matt hasn't stolen any of them yet. If he does, I'll cut his foot off or something."

"I'll come with," Bella said, "I just realized that my sword's not in my bra."

"Not in your bra?" Scipio asked, standing slowly and pushing his chair under the table. "I suppose we shall have to go find it then."

"Yep," Alice agreed. They set off and, hesitantly, Scipio slipped his hand into Alice's.

"Crew, we're being followed!" Adam shouted over the speakers. "Start firing missiles."

"But I need my sword..." Bella frowned.

"That's okay, I'll get it for you. I'm sure the two of you can hold them off for a few minutes without me, right?" Scipio offered.

Alice relucatntly let go of Scipio's hand as he ran to go get their weapons. "Come'n" Alice said, "lets go get a ship thing, the unconcious psyhick connection'll come in handy."

"Alright."

They ran off together and hopped into one of the air ships. "Adam, we're going out there."

"Be careful."

They pushed the eject button and shot out into space. Alice firing and Bella driving they pumbled the ship.

"Guys they're about to unleash an undectable ray. Get back in here now!" Adam's voice boomed. They turned away to do that. But the ray got to them first. They vanished from Adam's view, and from all concious places until they crash-landed on some desert planet.

"Oh my god, where are we?!" Bella exclaimed, jumping out of hte ship thing.

"I don't know!!" Alice replied. "BUT THIS IS SOOO AWESOME!!!"

"Tis deserted...."

"AT THE SAME TIME IT SUCKS THEN!!!" Alices eyes went kind of funny, looking in odd directions...if it wasn't Alice, Bella would've been seriously concerned.

"So...what do we do now?"

Alice thought for a minute, "well...does the ship still work? We could try a fourm jump back to the Highwind."

Bella fiddled with the buttons and Alice helpped but to no avail, the ship wouldn't start up again.

"Your turn," Alice said.

"Um...psychick connection with Adam?"

ADAM! Alice screamed with her mind, no response. ADAM! still nothing.

"Your turn," Bella said.

"Um..." Alice said, "find an oasis?"

Bella looked around....Oasis.....

"Alice, why did we leave the ship again?"

"Something about a battle...right?"

"Okay...." Bella walked over and smacked Alice upside the head.

"Ouch! What was that for?!"

"This was your idea!"

"Getting lost was my idea?"

"No..."

"It was my idea to go beat up the bad guys!"

"yeah..."

"Isn't that what our job is?!"

"No."

"What is?"

"To go get the thing things that'll save the future!"

"Oh yeah...well...It still wasn't my idea."

"Well, in that case, what do you suggest we do to take care of this problem?"

"Um.... Oasis! Didn't I say that already?"

"Yeah...."

"Well then lets go!"

"Where?"

Alice thought for a moment, "um...." she said....and started spinning around in circles, she stopped left hand extended pointing a direction.

"We go that way?" Bella pointed the same way as Alice.

"Nope, I don't trust my finger so we go," she turned around and pointed oppsite where she had pointed, "that way!"

Bella shrugged, "alright. Come on lets get some of the supplies out of here, there's some things we may need."

"Okay!"
