Sethos Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Chapter 20:Another Old "Friend" Kara decided she would have to try her other new marble soon."The problem is that I'm not sure what it will do each time.It could use the power of any of my other marbles,or something much worse.So,I would like to take precautions first."Kara explained. "So is that today's 'Big Event'?"Inuyasha asked sarcasticly. "Might as well be.I'm tired of just sitting around."Sango said with a sigh. "Okay,well you might want to brace yourselves."Kara said warningly. She pulled out her second newest marble,that was black with a white question mark inside,and she threw it up into the air(A\n:Sorry,but I wasn't sure how I should activate this one.Btw:I call this the element of suprise.I got the idea in chapter ten when I snuck up on Miroku.).Immediatly,the ground began to shake violently and boulders fell from the sky. "It's imitating my rock marble!!If we go back to the tent we should be fine.It's close enough to the forest that it won't get hit.See how it's only raining in the fields?"Kara said as they all ran. Inside the tent it was quieter and less boulders were falling."What the hell was that again?"Inuyasha asked,waving his arms. "My rock marble.To activate the actual one,I have to wedge it in a hollow rock or just a whole bunch of rocks.I call the marble I just used'The element of suprise.'"Kara said. "Uh-oh.I think we have another problem.There are two shards coming at us really fast!!"Kagome said with wide eyes. "And we all know what that means..."Kara said in a knowing voice. They all looked at her and shook their heads."It means that-"Kara started but she was cut off. "Kouga!"Kagome said with suprise.(A\n:The tent flap is open,btw.) "Hi,Kagome!I could smell you in the area,and then there was this earthquake so I thought I should check on you!"Kouga said,obviously happy to see Kagome.He wasn't,however,happy to see Inuyasha."Hey,dog turd.You better be taking good care of Kagome!" Inuyasha was turning red.Not from embarassment,but from anger."Where do you get off just coming and going as you please?!?!?!I'm protecting Kagome,and you're off God knows where,doing God knows what!!!She's not your woman!!"he shouted. The rest of Kouga's companions were coming now,and they looked out of breath."Kouga,you have got to start waiting for us."Ginta said as he sat on a nearby fallen boulder. "Oh,hi Kagome!"Hokaku added.There seemed to be more wolves than usual,with a lot of cubs. "I remember them!!They were in the field the day I met Kiyato!!"Shippo shouted as he pointed at the cubs. "Yeah,who're the new people?"Kouga asked eyeing Kara and Kiyato,who was on Kara's shoulder,warily."If they're a danger to Kagome,I'm taking them out!!" "That's Kara,"Kagome said,pointing at her,"and that's Kiyato." "And I didn't mean for it to rain boulders!I just had to test my new marble!I'm handling my magic quite well now,thank you!"Kara said,forgetting that he didn't know anything about her. "You did that?!?!"Ginta asked with wide eyes. "I said I didn't mean to!"Kara said,thinking he was blaming her. "Everyone,calm yourselves!"Miroku said in a voice that demanded order. "So what are you doing here anyway Kagome?"Kouga asked casually. "There is a shard that is concealed somewhere in this area.Last night it became clearer,but it still seemed to be everywhere.So we looked for it,Shippo and Kiyato got chased,and we still didn't find the demon."Kagome explained. "And now it's time for you to run away again."Inuyasha said,trying to make him leave. "Just for that,I think I'll hang around a while."Kouga said with a grin as he scooted closer to Kagome. "Well,if you're staying,we'll need to make more food than usual."Sango said sensibly as she pulled out packets of Ramen."If it makes you feel any better,we can have your favorite food."she added to Inuyasha. "I can hunt for my own food!"Kouga said.His friends tried not to sweatdrop,because they were tired and hungry. "Kouga,what you catch you eat raw.Since you can catch diseases from that,I insist that you let me cook you some food.I won't take no for an answer!"Kagome said firmly,leaving no room for argument. "Here that mutt?She cares about me."Kouga taunted Inuyasha. "Of course I do.You're my friend."Kagome said,rolling her eyes. "We can discuss details after lunch."Kara said. ~Well,I got to meet Kouga after all.Over the next few days,I'll probably be laughing my head off.~Kara thought with amusement.

Sethos Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Okay, this story is a random generated "Hero" story, with me and Rappy in it ... " It all started when our antagonizing protagonist, Rappy Man, woke up in a haunted thicket. It was the second time it had happened. Feeling abnormally pleased, Rappy Man grabbed a gerbil, thinking it would make him feel better (but as usual, it did not). Before the all-seeing eyes of a perpetually displeased diety, he realized that his beloved pillow was missing! Immediately he called his enemy in training, Sethos Boy. Rappy Man had known Sethos Boy for (plus or minus) one million years, the majority of which were enchanting ones. Sethos Boy was unique. She was easygoing though sometimes a little... abrasive. Rappy Man called her anyway, for the situation was urgent. Sethos Boy picked up to a very unctuous Rappy Man. Sethos Boy calmly assured him that most long-haired sea monkeys shudder before mating, yet spotted wolf hamsters usually earnestly yawn *after* mating. She had no idea what that meant; she was only concerned with distracting Rappy Man. Why was Sethos Boy trying to distract Rappy Man? Because she had snuck out from Rappy Man's with the pillow only seven days prior. It was a exotic little pillow... how could she resist? It didn't take long before Rappy Man got back to the subject at hand: his pillow. Sethos Boy panicked. Relunctantly, Sethos Boy invited him over, assuring him they'd find the pillow. Rappy Man grabbed his time machine and disembarked immediately. After hanging up the phone, Sethos Boy realized that she was in trouble. She had to find a place to hide the pillow and she had to do it carefully. She figured that if Rappy Man took the neighborhood-terrorizing crotch rocket, she had take at least nine minutes before Rappy Man would get there. But if he took the Rubber Duck? Then Sethos Boy would be abundantly screwed. Before she could come up with any reasonable ideas, Sethos Boy was interrupted by six insensitive Bananas that were lured by her pillow. Sethos Boy grimaced; 'Not again', she thought. Feeling concerned, she aimlessly reached for her live hand grenade and carefully grabbed every last one of them. Apparently this was an adequate deterrent--the discouraged critters began to scurry back toward the disease-infested jungle, squealing with discontent. She exhaled with relief. That's when she heard the Rubber Duck rolling up. It was Rappy Man. ----o0o---- As he pulled up, he felt a sense of urgency. He had had to make an unscheduled stop at Wal-Mart to pick up a 12-pack of ninja stars, so he knew he was running late. With a inept leap, Rappy Man was out of the Rubber Duck and went charismatically jaunting toward Sethos Boy's front door. Meanwhile inside, Sethos Boy was panicking. Not thinking, she tossed the pillow into a box of potatos and then slid the box behind her whale. Sethos Boy was concerned but at least the pillow was concealed. The doorbell rang. 'Come in,' Sethos Boy earnestly purred. With a calculated push, Rappy Man opened the door. 'Sorry for being late, but I was being chased by some dimwitted beer-sloshed tool in a time machine,' he lied. 'It's fine,' Sethos Boy assured him. Rappy Man took a seat hilariously close to where Sethos Boy had hidden the pillow. Sethos Boy belched trying unsuccessfully to hide her nervousness. 'Uhh, can I get you anything?' she blurted. But Rappy Man was distracted. Ever so extemperaneously, Sethos Boy noticed a stupid look on Rappy Man's face. Rappy Man slowly opened his mouth to speak. '...What's that smell?' Sethos Boy felt a stabbing pain in her kidney when Rappy Man asked this. In a moment of disbelief, she realized that she had hidden the pillow right by her oscillating fan. 'Wh-what? I don't smell anything..!' A lie. A pestering look started to form on Rappy Man's face. He turned to notice a box that seemed clearly out of place. 'Th-th-those are just my grandma's potatos from when she used to have pet venomous koalas. She, uh...dropped 'em by here earlier'. Rappy Man nodded with fake acknowledgement...then, before Sethos Boy could react, Rappy Man aimlessly lunged toward the box and opened it. The pillow was plainly in view. Rappy Man stared at Sethos Boy for what what must've been eight seconds. Happy as a frickin' monkey, Sethos Boy groped exotically in Rappy Man's direction, clearly desperate. Rappy Man grabbed the pillow and bolted for the door. It was locked. Sethos Boy let out a enticing chuckle. 'If only you hadn't been so protective of that thing, none of this would have happened, Rappy Man,' she rebuked. Sethos Boy always had been a little abrasive, so Rappy Man knew that reconciliation was not an option; he needed to escape before Sethos Boy did something crazy, like... start chucking gerbils at her or something. Before the all-seeing eyes of a perpetually displeased diety, he gripped his pillow tightly and made a dash toward the window, diving headlong through the glass panels. Sethos Boy looked on, blankly. 'What the hell? That seemed excessive. The other door was open, you know.' Silence from Rappy Man. 'And to think, I varnished that window frame six days ago...it never ends!' Suddenly she felt a tinge of concern for Rappy Man. 'Oh. You ..okay?' Still silence. Sethos Boy walked over to the window and looked down. Rappy Man was gone. ----o0o---- Just yonder, Rappy Man was struggling to make his way through the swamp behind Sethos Boy's place. Rappy Man had severely hurt his ear during the window incident, and was starting to lose strength. Another pack of feral Bananas suddenly appeared, having caught wind of the pillow. One by one they latched on to Rappy Man. Already weakened from his injury, Rappy Man yielded to the furry onslaught and collapsed. The last thing he saw before losing consciousness was a buzzing horde of Bananas running off with his pillow. About five hours later, Rappy Man awoke, his kidney throbbing. It was dark and Rappy Man did not know where he was. Deep in the arid secret vineyard, Rappy Man was excessively lost. Just as zero people expected he remembered that his pillow was taken by the Bananas. But at that point, he was just thankful for his life. That's when, to his horror, a oversized Banana emerged from the foxy forest. It was the alpha Banana. Rappy Man opened his mouth to scream but was cut short when the Banana sunk its teeth into Rappy Man's armpit. With a faint groan, the life escaped from Rappy Man's lungs, but not before he realized that he was a failure. Less than five miles away, Sethos Boy was entombed by anguish over the loss of the pillow. 'MY PRECIOUS!!' she cried, as she reached for a sharpened dull pencil. With a heroic thrust, she buried it deeply into her love handle. As the room began to fade to black, she thought about Rappy Man... wishing she had found the courage to tell him that she loved him. But she would die alone that day. All that remained was the pillow that had turned them against each other, ultimately causing their demise. And as the dew on melancholy sappling branches began to reflect the dawn's reddish glare, all that could be heard was the chilling cry of distant Bananas, desecrating all things sacred to virtuous men, and perpetuating an evil that would reign for centuries to come. Our heroes would've lived unhappily ever after, but they were too busy being dead. So, no one lived forever after, the end. :'( LOLz!!1" Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/635486-8-million-by-oct-1st-2008-win/page/94/#findComment-589804100 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sethos Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Sethos I like your stories but... Yes sir, It all started when our over-heralded star, Rappy, woke up in a disease-infested jungle. It was the seventh time it had happened. Feeling scarcely stunned, Rappy attacked a live hand grenade, thinking it would make him feel better (but as usual, it did not). Happy as a frickin' monkey, he realized that his beloved Book'o'Rappy was missing! Immediately he called his so-called best friend, Rappy. Rappy had known Rappy for (plus or minus) 20 years, the majority of which were eccentric ones. Rappy was unique. He was clever though sometimes a little... abrasive. Rappy called him anyway, for the situation was urgent. Rappy picked up to a very happy Rappy. Rappy calmly assured him that most spotted wolf hamsters sneeze before mating, yet 3-legged wallabies usually explosively yawn *after* mating. He had no idea what that meant; he was only concerned with distracting Rappy. Why was Rappy trying to distract Rappy? Because he had snuck out from Rappy's with the Book'o'Rappy only ten days prior. It was a electric little Book'o'Rappy... how could he resist? It didn't take long before Rappy got back to the subject at hand: his Book'o'Rappy. Rappy yawned. Relunctantly, Rappy invited him over, assuring him they'd find the Book'o'Rappy. Rappy grabbed his canoe and disembarked immediately. After hanging up the phone, Rappy realized that he was in trouble. He had to find a place to hide the Book'o'Rappy and he had to do it aggressively. He figured that if Rappy took the noise-polluting import, he had take at least three minutes before Rappy would get there. But if he took the RappyMobile? Then Rappy would be very screwed. Before he could come up with any reasonable ideas, Rappy was interrupted by five selfish BunnyRappys that were lured by his Book'o'Rappy. Rappy sighed; 'Not again', he thought. Feeling exasperated, he aptly reached for his gerbil and aptly hit every last one of them. Apparently this was an adequate deterrent--the discouraged critters began to scurry back toward the fanstic pumpkin patch, squealing with discontent. He exhaled with relief. That's when he heard the RappyMobile rolling up. It was Rappy. ----o0o---- As he pulled up, he felt a sense of urgency. He had had to make an unscheduled stop at Egg Roll King to pick up a 12-pack of bananas, so he knew he was running late. With a mighty leap, Rappy was out of the RappyMobile and went scandalously jaunting toward Rappy's front door. Meanwhile inside, Rappy was panicking. Not thinking, he tossed the Book'o'Rappy into a box of live hand grenades and then slid the box behind his time machine. Rappy was worried but at least the Book'o'Rappy was concealed. The doorbell rang. 'Come in,' Rappy indiscriminately purred. With a careful push, Rappy opened the door. 'Sorry for being late, but I was being chased by some clueless zealous...zealot in a rice rocket,' he lied. 'It's fine,' Rappy assured him. Rappy took a seat just under where Rappy had hidden the Book'o'Rappy. Rappy belched trying unsuccessfully to hide his nervousness. 'Uhh, can I get you anything?' he blurted. But Rappy was distracted. Duly ecstatic about the looming crises, Rappy noticed a funny-smelling look on Rappy's face. Rappy slowly opened his mouth to speak. '...What's that smell?' Rappy felt a stabbing pain in his armpit when Rappy asked this. In a moment of disbelief, he realized that he had hidden the Book'o'Rappy right by his oscillating fan. 'Wh-what? I don't smell anything..!' A lie. A stupid look started to form on Rappy's face. He turned to notice a box that seemed clearly out of place. 'Th-th-those are just my grandma's ripened avocados from when she used to have pet Indonesian devil cats. She, uh...dropped 'em by here earlier'. Rappy nodded with fake acknowledgement...then, before Rappy could react, Rappy skillfully lunged toward the box and opened it. The Book'o'Rappy was plainly in view. Rappy stared at Rappy for what what must've been three nanoseconds. Duly ecstatic about the looming crises, Rappy groped surreptitiously in Rappy's direction, clearly desperate. Rappy grabbed the Book'o'Rappy and bolted for the door. It was locked. Rappy let out a exotic chuckle. 'If only you hadn't been so protective of that thing, none of this would have happened, Rappy,' he rebuked. Rappy always had been a little stupid, so Rappy knew that reconciliation was not an option; he needed to escape before Rappy did something crazy, like... start chucking carrots at him or something. In a tragically predictable turn of events, he gripped his Book'o'Rappy tightly and made a dash toward the window, diving headlong through the glass panels. Rappy looked on, blankly. 'What the hell? That seemed excessive. The other door was open, you know.' Silence from Rappy. 'And to think, I varnished that window frame nine days ago...it never ends!' Suddenly he felt a tinge of concern for Rappy. 'Oh. You ..okay?' Still silence. Rappy walked over to the window and looked down. Rappy was gone. ----o0o---- Just yonder, Rappy was struggling to make his way through the magical cornfield behind Rappy's place. Rappy had severely hurt his prostate during the window incident, and was starting to lose strength. Another pack of feral BunnyRappys suddenly appeared, having caught wind of the Book'o'Rappy. One by one they latched on to Rappy. Already weakened from his injury, Rappy yielded to the furry onslaught and collapsed. The last thing he saw before losing consciousness was a buzzing horde of BunnyRappys running off with his Book'o'Rappy. But then God came down with His easygoing smile and restored Rappy's Book'o'Rappy. Feeling stunned, God smote the BunnyRappys for their injustice. Then He got in His 'modded' Civic and jetted away with the fortitude of 1.2 billion spotted wolf hamsters running from a misshapen pack of 3-legged wallabies. Rappy jumped with joy when he saw this. His Book'o'Rappy was safe. It was a good thing, too, because in four minutes his favorite TV show, Rappy Gone Wild, was going to come on (followed immediately by 'When 3-legged wallabies meet ebola'). Rappy was thrilled. And so, everyone except Rappy and a few rusty razor blade-toting South American hissing sloths lived blissfully happy, forever after.

Kushan Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 As heard on Mock the Week, recently: "You're an emo, I think between the two of us we both know who you're more likely to harm".
