copy of the game EarthBound, however, you're not getting it! So there!

Earth Bound Wing Zero
~By Shimegami-chan
Part 9: Imaginihs
Music: "Butterfly," from Digimon
Warnings: Mild language
Author's Note: Feh...I actually got reviews on that last chapter, but it's not
much for the ego. ^^;; I think anyone's who's actually been following this
story since chapter 1 knows that it wasn't meant as a serious peice. If you
want serious, I'd recommend one of my serials, y'know? This one's always been
in script format, also. But thanks for the comments, to those who
reviewed...and to quote one, "Maybe if you work on a story next you might
get more reviews , try and make it interesting too!" I'm going to take
that to mean that they just haven't read any of my serious work, elsewise it'd
be more of a blow. I work on the Earth Bound crossover when I'm stressed, or
when I'm overdoing things with 'Switch,' or 'Behind Closed Doors.' Most of you
will note that this story has gone straight to hell since Heero left Onett;
it's full of self-insertion and inside jokes, not to mention tossing in
characters from every anime I can think of. It really is fun to write. :-P And
as for the rest of my stories, I sincerely hope they're interesting...I
mean, I may not be the best at this, but I do put a lot of work into
SOME of my stories. (*cough* Death Becomes Him *cough*) I guess I should probably
come up with a straight-couple fic sometime soon, and see if I'll draw more
readers that way. ^_^ Thanks, everyone!
*The two boys and Shi-chan wake up in a back room in the Fourside Café*
Quatre: ...We're alive...
Shi-chan: *grins* We survived again!
Seki: Are you guys okay?
Shi-chan: Perfectly, kitto OK!
Heero: Hn, let's get out of here. We still have to find Duo.
Quatre: But we have no idea where he is...
Shi-chan: Aha, but I do! I heard the Evil Voice (tm) talking about a place
called "Imaginihs."
Seki: Wait, that's the name of the building Yukito-san brought us to!
Heero: Excellent. Let's go there.
*They exit the café, only to be halted by the ringing of Heero's cell phone.*
Heero: Hello?
Howard: Oi, Heero! I just wanted to tell you about this cool thing I invented:
the Tea-Flavoured-Ice-Cream-Maker. I'm sending it up to you by courier!
Quatre: Oh, wow, tea-flavoured ice cream? Thanks, Howard!
Heero: Hn. *hangs up*
Random Blue-Eyed Girl Who Just Happens To Have An Item Crucial For The
Completion Of The Game (See, I read my reviews! It just took me a while to find
a place to fit you in. ^^;;): Wait! Did I hear you talking about tea-flavoured
ice cream?
Quatre: Why yes, we were just discussing it! Uh, where did you come from?
Random Blue-Eyed Girl Etc.: Oh! Forgive me! My name is Cherry Blossom, and I
work in the Imaginihs Building. My muse, Matteo, just loves tea-flavoured ice
cream! Do you happen to have some?
*Ice-Cream Machine drops out of the sky. Shi-chan catches it.*
Shi-chan: We do now.
Quatre: Wait, you can't give that away!
Cherry Blossom: Well, I'll let you think about it. My office is on the fiftieth
floor of the Imaginihs Building, come by when you decide! *She exits*
Seki: Wait just a minute here! This is our ticket into the Imaginihs Building,
and Duo!
Quatre: You're right! I guess we'll have to sacrifice the machine. *sighs* It
sounded so good too...
Shi-chan: *pats him on the back* It's okay. Now! Let's go save Duo!
*The group heads to the Imaginihs Building, which looks considerably safer in
the light. They are able to get to the fifth floor without any trouble, telling
Security that they've come to see Cherry.*
Heero: That was too easy.
Quatre: *Nods.*
Shi-chan: Well...there's gotta be some enemies around here *somewhere*...
*Suddenly a scaled-down version of Epyon appears in their path*
Heero: NANIIIII?
Epyon: *clunk*
Heero: Um...PSI Wing...C.
Epyon: Clunk. *throws a table at Heero.*
Heero: Hey!
Epyon: Whirr. *Throws an energy blast at Quatre, knocking him out.*
Heero: !
Shi-chan: PSI Authoress C!
Epyon: Omae o korosu. *Throws a chair at Shi-chan, incapacitating her*
Seki: ARRRRG! I CAN'T DO ANYTHING UP HERE!
Heero: ...this is so not fair...PSI Wing B!
Epyon: *seems unaffected*
*All of a sudden, ear-shattering music begins to play, and Epyon's head
explodes. Mousse appears out of nowhere and glomps Shi-chan.*
Mousse: SHAMPOO!
Shi-chan: Guess again.
Heero: Oh, no... it's the DUCK band...
Kurama: I heard Quatre calling psychically for help, and we thought you guys
could use a little assistance...
Shi-chan: A-arigatou...
Quatre: *wakes up* Huh?
Ryoga: *Laughing maniacally, a la 'Fang Boy.'* Wahahaha! Let's go save Duo!
Ranma: *kicks the door down, revealing a short man in a black cloak.* Eep...uh,
we'll wait out here.
Imaginihs: What do you think you're doing!?
Shi-chan: Kicking your ass.
Imaginihs: !
Seki: Hey, wait a minute.. Duo!?
Imaginihs: Heh heh. You look ripe for the taking.
Quatre: Why does that sound so familiar...?
Imaginihs: I AM THE GOD OF DEATH!
Shi-chan: Now wait just a minute here!
Seki: Psst, Shi...there's a braid sticking out from under his cloak...
Shi-chan: Duo?!?
Duo: *voiceover* No! It's not me!
*Pounding can be heard from a nearby closet*
Heero: ... *he goes to the offending closet and opens it, only to be
glomp-tackled by Duo.*
Duo: HEE-CHAN!
Seki: *looks confused* But if you're Duo...then who's...
Imaginihs: His life is mine!
Quatre: Okay, that's IT! I've had enough of you! *yanks the cloak off,
revealing the two Shinigami-chibis from Winters. Chibi Shi-kun is standing on
Chibi Shi-chan's shoulders.*
Chibi Shi-kun: Muahahaha...
Chibi Shi-chan: Muahahaha...
Seki: Oh god, my head is spinning, it looks like there's four Duos down
there...
Evil Voice (tm): Oops, I forgot about that
*purple smoke appears...and now there are only three Duos.*
Duo: Nani?
Shi-chan: Damn...I'm not onscreen anymore...and it was so interesting down
there too!
*The two chibis have gotten at the ice cream machine and are eating Tea Ice
Cream.*
Quatre: Hey, don't touch that!
Evil Voice #2: Damn, foiled again...
Duo: Oh my God, guys! I have to tell you, the one who kidnapped me...
Hilde: Was ME! MUAHAHAHAHA!
Heero: Hilde!?!?
Shi-chan: I never liked that girl...
Hilde: That's right! And don't think I won't be coming back for you, Duo
Maxwell! MUAHAHAHAHA! *she disappears*
Quatre: *blinks*
Duo: Hai, she tricked the chibis into helping her...in case you didn't notice,
'Imaginihs,' is 'Shinigami,' spelled backwards. But she was behind it, her and
her 'dark masters,'...
Seki: 'Dark Masters?'
Duo: Yeah! There are three Evil Voices (tm) in all, but they wear voice
synthesizers to sound evil! 'Cause, Hilde took hers off when she explained that
she was behind it. I don't know who her masters are though.
Heero: I see...
Shi-chan: I have a brilliant idea. Let's give Cherry the ice-cream maker and
get the heck outta this city.
Duo: Ice-cream maker? Where?
Quatre: Sorry, Duo, it only makes tea-flavoured ice-cream.
Duo: Aww...
*Leaving the chibis with a bowl of ice cream each, our heroes, author, and muse
head to Cherry's office.*
Cherry Blossom: Ah! So you've decided to let me have the machine?
Quatre: Sure, take it off our hands!
Matteo: Yatta! Ice cream!
Seki: Hoo boy...
*Leaving Cherry and Matteo with the ice-cream maker, the gang heads downstairs
to meet up with the members of DUCK.*
Kurama: Can we offer you guys a ride?
Ryoga: Where are you heading?
Mousse: Are you sure you're not Shampoo?
Shi-chan: Yes we'd love a ride, we're going to Threed, and yes, I'm sure.
Mousse: Aww...
Ryoga: Great, I'm driving. <---the eternal lost boy
Mousse: I'll navigate! <---blind
Duo: Cool, I'll keep everybody entertained! <---God spare us
Shi-chan: This is gonna be a long trip...
------------------------------
Shi-chan: ^_^ I feel much better now! Yatta!
Seki: *nods*
Shi-chan: And I've got my muse back!
Quatre: Thank God!
Duo: Aw, nuts.
