Take: 240
*We see Lina and Zel faling down the shaft*
*Both scream as the hands let go. Lina drops through the hole and lands on her knees and hands, Zel follows closely and lands on top of her*
Lina: OUCH!!! *is flattened to the ground by the force of the fall* Get offa me!!!
Zel: Gomen.... *rolls off of her and sits down* (gomen - sorry)
Lina: ouchouchouch.... where are we?
Zel: I believe we would call this an 'Obliete'. Meaning to forget. We have been dropped in here to be forgotten.
Lina: WHAT?!? THEY WILL NOT JUST LEAVE US HERE!!! GET US OUTTA HERE!
Zel: Fine... *goes to a bourd and moves it to the wall so it is paralell to the wall and puts a key in and turns it and the board turns into a door which he opens and walks through*
Lina: *stares dumbfounded*
Zel: This way. *Lina follows*
*they go through a cave like tunnel and as they turn a corner a large stoned carved faces start shouting*
Face1: Beware!
Face2: Go back!
Lina: Get a life -
Zel: Don't pay any attention to them, their just false alarms, you get a lot of them in the Labyrinth especially when your on the right path -
Face1: Oh no your not.
Zel: Oh shutup...
Face2: Sorry just doing our job -
Zel: Well don't do it to us!
Face1: Don't need to get all grouchy on us...
*Lina and Zel turn to the sound of something going down the corridor. They see a small crystal ball roll down the corridor and past them turning through a door way*
Both: Uh-oh...
*They see the crystal ball roll over to a little begger man covered in a hood and many ragged robes. The crystal bounces and goes straight into the cup the begger man holds*
Begger: Well well... What do we have here?
Zel: Nothing -
Begger: Nothing? *little sterner* Nothing?!? *stands up and removes the disguise and reveals himself to be - *
Both: XELLOS?!?
Xellos: *whining* Hey you interupted me -
Both: *sweatdrop*
Xellos: Nothing tra la la?
Zel: *coldly* Xellos, what a horrible surprise.
Xellos: That's 'Your highness' to you. *turns to lina and looks at her with a grin.* But for you -
Zel: Leave her alone fruitcake.
Xellos: *half opens his slitted eyes to Zel*
Lina: *has backed up from the fight with wide eyes.*
Xellos: And why should I?
Zel: ....
Xellos: I thought so - Hello Hedgewort -
Lina: Hogwort -
Zel: HOGGLE!!!
Xellos: Hoggle, can it be your helping this girl?
Zel: Helping? In what sense?
Xellos: In the sense that your leading her straight to the castle.
Zel: Yah so?
Xellos: I don't want her to win -
Zel: Umm - *listlessly* I was tricking her, I told her I would take her to the castle but in fact I'm taking her to the beginning.
Xellos: If you had been helping her I would of been forced to lock you in a room with Amelia and a romantic movie - *grins evily. Turns to Lina*
Lina: ....
*Xellos Walks up to her and Lina finds her back against the stone wall. He then places an arm on the wall leaning against it and stands over her. Lina seems to blush*
Xellos: And you Sarah, how are you enjoying my Labyrinth?
Lina: I'd prefer almost anything else to this boring, psychotic -
Xellos: *raises an eyebrow* Oh? I believe I have just been insulted -
Lina: *sarcastically* Me insult you? Never -
Xellos: *a clock apears and he forwards it *
Lina: *clocks him* HEY!!!
Xellos: ^_^ Thank you.
Lina: *backs into the wall further...if that were possible.*
Xellos: So the Labyrinth is a piece of cake is it? Well lets see how you deal with this little slice - *pulls out a crystal and throws it down the long dark tunnel*
Lina: Zel what is he doing? *doesn't hear Zel* Zel?
*hears something that sounds like clashing metal down the corridor the crystal went. Lina turns to find Zel is gone. In fact he is running in the opisate direction. She turns to see why*
Lina: HOLY $HIT!!!!
*Xellos smiles and disapears as Lina runs top notch speed away from the wall of steel knives and shard of glass driving down the corridor.*
Lina: It - *gasp* figures - *pant* Zel would be the *wheeze* smart one and run - *she catches up with Zel and both keep running untill they reach a dead end which is bared off. The tunnel does continue but due to the bars...*
Zel: Kisama!!!!
*turns to the wall at his right and noticing it different and starts beating on it. Lina joins and by the time the cleaners is five feet away the wall falls in and both land in safety*
Lina: Thank you God -
Zel: And what about me?
*Lina shrugs as Zel stands and begins climbing the rickety ladder upwards*
Lina: Zel where the hell are you going?
Zelgadis: Up.
Lina: *stands up and follows him up* So now where are you taking me?
Zel: To a place where I can leave you to finish this dumb play -
*He presess up on the ceiling where the ladder stops, it moves and he moves it up and pushes it to the left. A large clang sounds as the lid hits the ground. He gets up and we find they are both in a large planting pot.*
Lina: Where are we?
Zel: That's it! I quit! *jumps out of it. They are in the hedge part of the maze. Off to thier left is a chair made of large stone books. Lina jumps out too.*
Lina: Wait-a-minute!!! HOGGLE!
Zel: I never promised anything! I said I'd take you as far as I can -
Lina: Well it's not far enough! *steps in front of his path*
Zel: It is for me!
*Lina grabs at his belt and manages to grab a bag off of it*
Lina: Take me farther!
Zel: GIMME THAT!
*he dives for it, Lina runs around the encircled area as he chases her. Rezo enters and both freeze. He is wearing his red outfit with his staff. Unfortunately both freezed as Zel dove at Lina... the result being he landed on top of her in a very cough compramising position.*
Lina: *blushing furiously*
Zel: O_O *blushing also*
Rezo: Now you two, if your so eager to do *that* then you should find a nice secluded place away from our readers innocent eyes...
Zel & Lina: SHUDDUP!
Rezo: Now now....
Zel: *jumps off of Lina who is still blushing crimson*
Rezo: I never knew stone could blush....
Lina: ......I never knew you could see....
*Rezo goes over to the large chair and sits down in it*
Rezo: *muttering* The least she could do is put cushions in the damn chair....
Lina: Excuse me, but can you help me?
Rezo: *raises an eyebrow and smirks* I'm sorry but I haven't seen your mommy or daddy....
Lina: *eye twitches* What?
Rezo: *not answering* What kind of help?
Lina: ....
Zel: She wants to get to the castle.
Rezo: Oh...well young lady, sometimes the way forward, can also be the way back.
Lina: What?
Rezo: *shrugs* Don't ask me. Since Xellos destroyed the only brail copy of the script Jaime had to make me memorize the lines by voice. And I'm only repeating what she told me.
Lina and Zel: *sweatdrop*
Rezo: It may seem like your not getting anywhere when in fact you are.
Lina: *sourly* Well I'm certainly not getting any where at the moment...
Rezo: Join the club.
Lina: What else can you tell me?
Rezo: I think I'm supposed to pretend to fall asleep. *gets comfy, if that is even possible, and nods off*
Zel: .....
Lina: Dammit! *grabs Zel by the forearm and drags him off down one of the openings in the hedges*
Zel: Patience is not one of your virtues is it?
Lina: Listen my friend -
Zel: Friend?
Lina: Your the closest person in this place I have to a friend -
Zel: *stares at her in real surprise*
Lina: *blushes lightly* What?
Zel: *both stop walking and she releases his arm. All of a sudden they hear a very loud scream*
Gourry: SOMEONE HELP!!!!
*Zel and Lina begin running through the maze and come to a clear area that is surrounded by hedges*
Zel and Lina: O.O
*We see Gourry tied in a pink frilly chair. A large vanity with make up and other vanity items on it. A very large mirror is also there*
Gourry: Someone stop her!!!
*There is a closet also filled with frilly dresses. Gourry is wearing a pink dress which is decorated with bows and is very fluffy. His hair is up with a large bow and flowers. He is wearing make-up and a tall blond woman wearing a blue beuaticians outfit is holding lipstick.*
Xellas: Oh hi Lina-chan! I was just finishing the last touches!
Lina: *mouth gaping open* BEAST MASTER?!?
Xellas: *grins* Yep!
Lina: *Passes out*
Zel: O_O *catches her*
Xellas: *bends over and starts applying lipstick.* Hold still Gourry - oh now I have to start all over again -
Zel: You weren't mentioned on the cast list either!!!
Xellas: *pouts* Hmmph. *shrugs* Jaime said she was throwing in last minute people and it was too late to fix up the cast list since she already donated that part of the story to the 'Darkness Rising' site.
Zel: *sweatdrops*
Gourry: HELP!!!
Zel: *shakes Lina trying to wake her up* Wake up Li - Sarah...
Lina: *blinks* Zel...?
Zel: *stands her up and she looks at Xellas*
Xellas: *smiles* Hello dear....
Lina: Wh - *turns to Zel and sounds incredulous* Why is Jaime inviting high level Mazoku to join the play?
Zel: Maybe she's insane -
Lina: Or maybe she's just suicidal...
Xellas: I'm hurt. I actaully wanted to join the fun. *smiles* And I promised I wouldn't do anything too bad....
Gourry: You lied!
Xellas: No I didn't -
Lina: Anyway we need to get Gourry it's part of the script...
Xellas: *shrugs* I'm through with him- *his ropes disapear and he jumps up running behind Lina*
Lina: .....
Zel: Lets go.... *drags them off down a path*
Xellas: Ta ta!
