[Kesiah]

*Drags Misto out from where he was hiding*
Kes: Come-on! You promised you would help me with this!
Misto: No, I promised I would help you on the CATS forum!
Kes: Same thing!
Misto: I'm not going to and you can't make me!!
Kes: Fine! Next time I'm gonna do a CATS/Monty Python crossover! See how you like that!
Misto: You wouldn't....I take it back...you would. Ok, ok, I'll help...
Kes: Wooot! *hugs Misto* You guys read on....and please take the complimentary bottles of humor while your here!

*Stupid Fuzzles.* Abe thought, glaring back at the critters behind him. *Odd knows why Munch likes them.* Abe still hadn't been able to find Munch in this stupid place, but the amount of Fuzzles were building up steadily, as well as the amount of Intern bodies. *So much for stopping the Fuzzles. Munch had so better not be dead! Or I'll kill him!*
Rounding a corner, Abe found himself face to face with the Vykker he had met earlier. *If he sees the Fuzzles, I'm dead!* Abe thought, trying not to panic.
"Hiya, big guy." Abe squeaked in his best 'I'm-pretending-to-be-a-girl' voice, and fluttered his eyelashes for good measure.
The Vykker's reaction was instantaneous. "Hello, little...... lady, what are you looking for on this fine day?"
Abe swallowed, he needed to keep the Vykker distracted, while the Fuzzles made a break for a hiding place.
"Why, I'd thought I'd take you up on that 'fitting', handsome." Abe said, desperately trying to remember how Queenie had acted around him. You had to turn your body like this, put your arms here, then smile and hope you didn't fall over.
The Vykker grinned, took Abe's arm and lead him towards a nearby doorway.
"Don't worry, my dear. I know exactly what I'm doing..."
-----------------------------

"Munch?"
"What is it now, Ben?" Munch said irritably.
"Have you noticed how quiet I'm being? Did you think maybe I'd disappeared I was so quiet? I think that the Sligs are scared of us, they keep running away! How come your bashing your head against the wall? Doesn't it hurt?"
*Not as much as listening to you does...* Munch thought, around beatings.
"It *thud* helps *thud* me *thud* to *thud* stop *thud* from *thud* doing *thud* bad *thud* things!" He said, then stopped hitting the wall.
"What kind of bad things? Is it like when you zapped that guard? What about when you got those Slogs? I don't think those are bad, Munch. If you didn't do it, then the Slogs would have killed us! So how come you think you're gonna do something bad? I know! Are you gonna try and steal some cookies?"
Munch looked back hopefully at the other Mudokons, but they seemed to be ignoring both Ben and himself, and quiet happy that Ben was leaving them alone. The sound of running feet interrupted Munch's thoughts of horrible things happening to Ben, and quickly revealed a running Slig, carrying something.
"Here we go again..." Munch muttered, preparing to zap the Slig.
The Slig raced up to the group, before screeching to a halt in front of Munch, and presenting him with......a coconut?
"Goo goo gajoob!" The Slig yelled in Munch's face, threw a few sticks at him, grabbed the coconut, and ran off.
Munch rubbed his head from where the sticks had connected.
"That was weird. Lets keep going, and hope that that Slig doesn't come back." He said to the Mudokons, leading the way to another corridor.
---------------------------

*I wonder if you can die of embarresment.* Abe thought, scratching his butt for the fourth time in two minutes. The 'fitting' had involved one of those bra things, except made of lacy stuff, that itched like hell, which was filled with something that made Abe's chest look like someone had stuck a couple of melons there, though, and Abe shuddered at this, the Vykker had seemed pleased. But the worse one, the thing that was causing Abe to scratch a lot was some thing the Vykker had given him, Abe had insisted that he put it on by himself, called a......what was it? A Gee-string? That sounded about right. The continuous laughter of the Fuzzles wasn't helping either.
Abe paused to scratch his butt again. At least he'd learned one thing, Munch wasn't on board the Labs. He'd let slip about hearing that there was a Gabbit on board, and the Vykker had been so preoccupied with the 'bra' that he'd told Abe that they didn't have any Gabbits anywhere.
*I'm taking these stupid Fuzzles and getting out of here, stuff Munch and his stupid can opener!* Abe thought angrily.
He would have taken off the dress and other things by now, except that he had the feeling that he would need to be cut out of them.
*I really hope you're alive Munch, because I want to kill you when I see you!*
-------------------------

"Munch?"
"What!!"
"There's a scary Glukkon ahead. Do you think he's after us? What if he's the devil!!" Ben said, his fear actually causing him to say less than normal.
Munch peeked around the corner and had to admit that the Glukkon ahead of them could easily be the devil, with the dark suit and shoes with red flames and bits of, was that metal?, through his anatomy. But before Munch could suggest that they find a safer route, the Glukkon turned and saw him.
"Dude...." The Glukkon muttered, and Munch noticed a sweet smelling cigarette in the Glukkon's mouth, the smell alone made Munch's head spin.
"A Gabbit...." The Glukkon said. "Hello mister Gabbit, my name is....is....." Munch blinked as the Glukkon thought for a moment.
"Errrr.....I've forgotten. Got too many names you know. The others call me 'That One' behind my back." That One muttered, then coughed hoarsely.
"Uhhh...Don't worry about me..." Munch said, wondering if he should attack or run away. This Glukkon was too freaky to be normal, maybe it was sick or something, but it scared the @&#$ out of him!
"Don't worry Gabbit, you're just a figment of my imagination....cause of this stuff." That One waggled the cigarette in his mouth. "No body understands...they think I'm weird on purpose...but it's these numbers in my head...they don't leave me alone! Numbers, numbers everywhere, but not a drop to drink..."
Munch stared some more, obviously the Glukkon was a raving lunatic.
"Do. You. Know. Where. Abe. Is?" Munch said, slowly and clearly, so that the lunatic would understand.
"He's not here..." That One said, and had another coughing fit. "He was never here....Just some other Mud dressed up to look like him... Stupid plan if you ask me..."
Munch scowled and hopped off, leaving the Glukkon to explain his plans for world domination to the empty room.
*If Abe's not here, then I'm not looking anymore! I'm taking this lot to the nearest bird portal and leaving! The villagers can deal with them, and Ben!!* Munch thought angrily, and headed in the direction that would hopefully lead to a bird portal.

Misto: Can you let go now....I can't breath....
Kes: awwwww......
Ben: What are you two doing? What is he? How come you don't look like me? What are you two? Why do you have those on your chest?
Kes: .........Why did I invent him?
Misto: Don't look at me....
