Scene 14: Mentos Fresh and Full of Life


Amelia, Naga, and Martina finally managed to make it to shore before sun down. Once there, Amelia cast the new Hassle-free spell to transform them into humans. They had just finished dressing when they spied Zel approaching.

"Quick, Amelia!" Martina advised. "Take this breath mint so you wont turn him off with bad breath or anything."

Martina handed Amelia a mentoss mint which she quickly popped into her mouth.

"We'll be cheering you on from back here." Naga explained as the two leather clan villains dove for cover.

Amelia jumped onto Zel's path and smiled.

Zel looked at her annoyed. "What are you doing here little girl? The beach is dangerous at night, and this is Private Property!"

"Oh, you're so good and just!" Amelia breathed causing the magic mentos mint to activate. "Not only do you care about the safety of others, you also have a strong sense in up-holding the laws and rights of others!"

By this time the 'Magic Mentos Mint' had worked its spell on the helpless Zel.

E, Sis: I've got to think up a better name for that tongue twister.

Zelgadis' eyes took on the vacant glazed appearance of a zombie as Amelia continued on with her well rehearsed speech.

"Oh Mr. Zelgadis, I love you! More than anything in the world! I just know we're destined for each other. Destined to be together, forever and ever! Please Mr. Zelgadis," she begged with stars in her eyes, "please say you love me too!"

"I love you too," Zel repeated like a well programmed robot.

Martina and Naga flew from their hiding places and removed their ear plugs.

"OH, WAHAHAHAHAHAHH! This is marvelous! Now let's get to work! Tomorrow is the Big Day!" Naga bounced, literally, with joy.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Amelia asked, having swallowed the MMM already.

"AH?" Martina's mind raced for a suitable cover story. "Why...er...why wait? It's a match made in heaven, right? Let's have the wedding tomorrow then you can celebrate the rest of your lives!"

"What a great idea!" Amelia beamed. "Isn't it Mr. Zelgadis?"

"Yes, a great idea," Zel stated flatly.
