As you know, the webmistresses have been veeeery busy lately... *cough* NOT! They've been just plain old lazy. Laaaazy. With a capitol L! Anyways, it turns out that they have been neglecting their cleaning of the RR. All the windows are open, in an attempt to get rid of that smell. What smell? I don't know. Nobody seems to know where it's coming from. There are clothes EVERYWHERE, and the floor is covered in garbage. What happened to that clean-freak Meg from a few rambles ago?
Ashka: *munching potato chips* I don't get it. You're in love with Heero, and yet you're always reading 1x2 fanfics.
Meg: <.< I really have no answer for that
Lissa: Yeah well, get off the computer. Ken's going into withdrawl.
Kenny: *in the corner shivering* So... cold... so cold...
Sean: *prods Ken with a curtain rod*
Kenny: *twitches*
Sean: Seems normal to me.
Meg: Yea... he's fine. *turns back to screen, to find it... off?!* WHAT THE HELL?!
Lissa: I didn't do it! *hides behind Piccolo*
Piccolo: I think it crashed.
Meg: *eyebrow twitches* It... crashed...? AGAIN?! How many times is that going to happen? WE NEED A NEW COMPUTER!
Pasha: Go steal Alex's.
A clicking noise, a bolting sound, a metal door, and a welding gun are heard from the other side of Alex's door
Pasha: Or not...
Piccolo: Maybe the computer crashed because of that soda on the electrical outlet.
Meg: ....What soda on the electrical outlet?
Group: *lean around the computer, and see the electrical outlet sparking. Next to it, is one of Alex's spare canisters of C4....*
Ashka: *eyes wide* FIRE IN THE HOLE!
Group: *dive away dramatically as the canister blows up, throwing everyone across the room and into the wall*
Lissa: *laying on Piccolo after following him through the hole in the wall, courtesy of his body* Oh... my god...
After the fires were put out, the mess was... ahem. It's still there. Half the living room is black. The tables are now gone, and one of the chairs punctured the TV set in front of the curved couch. The entire cast has assembled in the shambles of the living room...
Goten: ....Wow.
Alex: *grinning* C4 is so cool. *walks back to her room*
Bulma: *looking at the charred computer cables* You're saying it was covered in SODA?
Pasha: *nods* Yeah, and it was sparking.
Meg: *covered in black soot from the fires* How the hell did SODA get on the outlet?!
Trunks & Goten: *glance at each other*
Trunks: *carrying bottles of soda* Goten! Hurry up!
Goten: *carrying a keg of sorts* I'm coming, I'm coming! Are you sure we should fill this next to the computer?
Trunks: Of course. These cables are protected.
Goten: Oh, yeah? By what?
Trunks: By.... stuff. Come on, I wanna see what happens! *empties soda bottles into the keg until it's full* Ok, shake it!
Goten: This is gonna be SOOOO cool! *shakes the keg until it starts shaking violently* Trunks...
Trunks: ...Yeah?
Goten: ...Should it be convulsing like that?
Trunks: ...Dunno.
Goten: It's going to explode, isn't it.
Trunks: Most likely.
Both: ...... *close eyes*
Trunks: *sweatdrops*
Lissa: *looks at Trunks and Goten* Do you guys have any idea as to how the soda got there?
Both: *quickly* Nope.
Lissa: *arches an eyebrow*
Bulma: Why was there C4 in here anyways?
Hysterical laughter can be heard from Alex's room.
Meg: ....She's crazy.
Pasha: That's the only explanation.
Meg: Creh-zee.
Gokou: ...Are you gonna clean the room now?
Meg: O.O; Why the hell should I do that?
Sean: Because you've got magical powers. *rolls his eyes* Duh.
Lissa: I think all of YOU should do it.
Cast: WHAT?!?!
Ashka: You two haven't been doing anything to clean up either!
Kenny: Yeah, the whole reason the room exploded was because Meg was sitting on her ass at the computer.
Meg: *narrows eyes* I wouldn't talk, Ken-chan.
Kenny: It's not MY fault the computer exploded.
Meg: It's not MY fault either!
Kenny: So stop trying to place the blame on me!
Meg: YOU were trying to place the blame on ME!
Lissa: *claps her hands to get attention* Children! Quiet.
Ken & Meg: *glare at Lissa*
Lissa: *sweatdrops* Heheh ^^;
Chichi: Why don't you hire someone to do it?
Lissa: *considers* Lazy... yet effective... Hmm. I like that idea.
Meg: How... how will we find one? The... computer died.
Sean: It's called a phone book.
Yamcha: I'll look for you, Lissa!
Roshi: No, I will! Only the best for my goddess!
Meg: <.< Why don't we just hire somebody we know to do it?
Lissa: >.> I like that plan better.
Videl: But you guys don't even have to look up the person. You have willing slaves!
Gero, Roshi, Yamcha, & Tien: *nod quickly*
Meg & Lissa: *cringe* Eww...
Videl: o.o; I didn't mean it like that...
Meg: ... I think I'll just... call anybody. *picks up phone, and presses a random button*
Piccolo: Speed dial?
Gohan: Have you been programming the phone again?
Meg: ....No. Hello? Oh.... Hi Heero!
Lissa: *rolls eyes* Go figure.
Meg: Naw, I just pressed one of the speed dial buttons.... How did I get this number? Uhh... ..... I don't remember.
The name "Duo" can be heard through the phone.
Meg: *wincing* Jeez Heero, that yell could make Relena jealous. Don't kill Duo! Noo!
Lissa: *eyes wide* NO! *dives at the phone, snatching it away* Heero! LEAVE DUO ALONE!
All that is heard is a dial tone.
Lissa: ARGH! Which button was it?! *presses another speed dial button*
???: ....Hello?
Lissa: Who's this?
???: Who's this?
Lissa: I asked you first.
???: You called me, shouldn't you know?
Lissa: ....Meg, it's for you.
Meg: Hello?
???: Meg?
Meg: *grins* Oh, hi Lina!
Lina: Hi! Was that Lissa?
Meg: Yeah. She pressed a random button, trying to call Heero and stop him from killing Duo.
Lina: .....Neat. O.o;
Meg: *evil grin* Lina, are you doing anything today?
Unknowingly, Lina agrees to visit the Ramble Room. When she walks in, Ashka and Pasha are singing a special song from Buffy the Vampire Slayer - the musical episode. In the middle of the charred living room...
Lina: *looks around the room* O.O;;;
Ashka: I touch the fire, and it freezes me. I look into it and its black
Pasha: Why can't I feel? My skin should crack and peel. I want the fire back.
Ashka: Now through the smoke, she calls to me. To make my way across the flame.
Lina: ...Hello?
Pasha: To save the day? Or maybe melt away? I guess it's all the same.
Ashka: So I will, walk! Through the fire! 'Cause where else can I turn?
Pasha: I will, walk! Through the fire! And let it...-
Lina: HEY!
Ashka & Pasha: *blink, turning to look at Lina*
Ashka: Oh, hi Lina ^.^
Lina: Hi! ...Um, what happened to your living room?
Pasha: *shrugs* Fire. C4. Boom. S'about it.
Lina: Oh o.o;
Gokou: *bounces in* Hi!
Lina: GOKOU! *gushes* Hiii!
Gokou: Are you the cleaning lady?
Lina: *looking at Gokou with gushy eyes, nodding though she doesn't know what he's talking about*
Gokou: Oh. Okay. *bounces away*
Lina: Wait! Gokou! *runs after him*
Ashka: The torch I bear, is scorching me. Buffy's laughing I've no doubt.
Pasha: I hope she fries! I'm free if that bitch dies! ...I better help her out...
Ashka: 'Cause she is, drawn, to the fire!
Pasha: Some people never learn!
Ashka & Pasha: And she will, walk, through the fire! And let it...
Meg: *walks into the living room* Is Lina here yet?
Ashka: *points in the direction they went* Will this do a thing to change her? Am I leaving Dawn in danger? Is my slayer too far gone to care?
Meg: Ah. Thanks. *walks out*
Pasha: *nods, waving* What if Buffy can't defeat it? Beedy eyes is right, we're needed! Or we can just sit around, and glare...
Lina: *following Gokou* Come back!
Lissa: *sitting in the kitchen, watching Gokou bounce by* Oh, hey Lina!
Lina: *stops* Hi!
Meg: *wanders in* There you are.
Lina: Hi!
Gokou: *comes back* The cleaning lady's here.
Lina: Gokou! ^.^
Meg: Gokou, this is Lina. She loves you. Give her a hug!
Gokou: Okay! *hugs Lina*
Lina: Eee! *glomps Gokou*
Lissa: *grins, one eyebrow arched* Have fun trying to get her off now, Meg.
Meg: She'll come off ^^
Lina: *clings*
Meg: ...Eventually.
Goten: *walking into the kitchen* Are you gonna clean the living room soon? I'd like the couch to come back.
Lissa: *blinking at Lina* Well, the cleaning lady idea was a flop.
Meg: Unless... Gokou? You wanna be a real sweetie and get us to love you forever?
Gokou: *looks at her suspiciously* What do I have to do?
Meg & Lissa: Clean the living room.
Lissa: It'll be fun! Really!
Gokou: ...Fun?
Meg: Definitely. And Lina will help you!
Lina: *still glomping Gokou* Yea, yea. Of course! *nods absently*
Gokou: Hmmm... Will Goten help too?
Goten: No!
Meg & Lissa: Of course!
Goten: No! >_<
Gokou: *grins* Okay!
All five walk (well, Lina's dragged along by Gokou, and Goten by Meg and Lissa...) into the living room, where Ash and Pash are STILL singing "Walk Through The Fire"...
Ashka: We'll se it through, it's what we're always here to do! So we will walk, through the fire!
Pasha: So one by one, they turn from me. I guess my friends can't face the cold...
They start singing in contrast...
Ashka: What can't we face....?
Pasha: But why I froze, not one among them knows!
Ashka: Together...
Pasha: And never can be taught!
Meg: ....Guys?
Ashka: She came from the grave much graver!
Pasha: First I'll kill her, then I'll save her!
Ashka: Everything is turning out so dark...
Pasha: Going through the motions...
Ashka: No I'll save her, then I'll kill her!
Lina: *unglomps Gokou* They sure do sing alot.
Lissa: That they do.
Pasha: I think this line's mostly filler...
Ashka: What's it going to take to strike a spark.....
Pasha: These endless days, are finally ending in a blaze!
Ashka: She will come, to me!
Pasha: And we are caught, in the fire!
Ashka & Pasha: The point of no return! So we will walk through the fire, and let it...
Others: *watch, transfixed*
Ashka & Pasha: *raise arms dramatically* Buuurn! Let it, buuurn! Let it, buuu~uurn! Let it BURN!
Others: *applaud*
Ashka & Pasha: *bow*
Gohan: *walking into the living room from the Barracks* Did I miss the concert?
Pasha: *sticks out her tongue* Yes.
Gohan: *grins* Yes!
Ashka: *glares at Gohan*
Lina: Gohan! *.*
Gohan: ...Hello.
Lina: *runs towards Gohan*
Goten: Watch out Gohan, she clings and doesn't let go!
Gohan: ACK! *runs away*
Lina: WAAAAAAIIIITTT!!!
Gohan: *slams the Barracks door shut*
Lina: o.o; Damn.
Meg: Don't worry Lina.
Lissa: They ran away when we first met them, too.
Lina: Aww. Hey, is Vejita around?
Meg & Lissa: Maybe. *shrug*
Ashka: I died! Many years ago!
Pasha: You can make me feel, like it isn't so!
Ashka: Why do you come to be with me?
Pasha: I think I finally know.
Meg, Lissa, Lina & Goten: *back away slowly*
Ashka: You're scared, ashamed of what you feel! You can't tell the ones you love, you know they couldn't deal!
Pasha: Whisper in the dead man's ear, that doesn't make it real! That's great...but I don't wanna play...
Lissa: ....Oh brother.
To Be Continued...
...it got too long for just one ramble =)
