Chapter 2: THE RETURN OF LEMON-LIME
"Guys we've been standing here for over a month, I can't even remember what we're doing." Complained bluecow.
"OMF LEMON-LIME!!!" yelled Urza, jumping onto one of those blocks you break in Mario games.
"Get down here poophead," said STAREYe, breaking the block with his fist. "I've figured it all out. This is chapter two, where we advance slightly in the plot, but annoyingly not actually uncover who any of our mysterious foes are or what their plans are. That comes in Chapter 3 or 4. We're also supposed to gain at least one more ally, fall into 2 to 5 traps, one of us has to separate from the group temporarily, for reasons unclarified, and we also have to stumble upon something that won't make sense until the very end. Any questions?"
"OOH! OOH!" Shouted Urza, waving his hand in the air. "Is unclarified a word, or did you just make that up?"
"Shut up. Now, according to my map, we go that way"
"But that's just the instructions to a Mouse Trap game," pointed out bluecow.
"Shut up. We go that way."

And so they walked in the opposite way backwards, it seemed as if they were walking the direction STAREYe had told them to go in. As they walked, Urza took a chance look behind him, which was really in front of him if you took where he was going as the front which is quite odd and you should be smacked for thinking that way, and he immediately yelled out "SNAEB!!!!!!!!!"

STAREYe smacked Urza for whatever that last paragraph meant, and also made a joke about his mom. Walking backwards, or whatever, they didn't see the large sushi restaurant they were about to walk into.

("Psst," whispered Urza, "So we completely disregarded the SNAEB I just saw behind us?)
("Well, we just really don't care that you saw the reflection of a can of Beans in the mirror.")
("Oh. Okay.")

Unfortunately, the sushi restaurant they were about to walk into was actually haunted by fish ghosts chopped into little pieces. "Stop," Urza yelled as they walked in.
"What is it?" asked STAREYe.
"There's something wrong with this place, I smell fish."
"Dude," said STAREYe, "You just missed the obligatory 'something smells fishy' joke." He then smacked him upside the head.
"Hey wtf!" Shouted bluecow, "That was me you just hit!"
"Err, no it wasn't..." said STAREYe, inspecting the head he just hit, looking puzzled. "This is defenatly Urza."
"Well then what hit me?"
"I dunno, maybe we should stop walking backwards."
"Whatever for?" asked Urza, picking himself off the floor after tripping over a chair he hadn't seen. "I see no problems with it, BACKWARDS IS THE WAY OF THE FUTURE! Or, past, or something..."
All of a sudden, the three heroes were surrounded by thousands of pieces-of-fish-ghosts. They drew their weapons and prepared for the battle (except Urza, he was still mumbling about walking backwards).
"DIE PIECE-OF-FISH GHOSTS!!" Shouted STAREYe, swinging a mace at one of the ghosts, and falling over as it passed right through it. However, the ghost Urza hit with his trout flew across the room and hit the wall with a SPLAT! "WTF" said STAREYe, trying to pull his mace out of the floor. "How come the trout hit it?" Urza quickly kept his swing going into another fish as he yelled out
"Fish kill fish! Simple policy!" Suddenly, his swing went haywire, and his trout went flying up into a tree. And to everyone's utter not surprise, 12 billion flying fish flew out of the tree, angered, and finished off the ghost fishies
"Hmm, I guess that's one problem out of the way," said bluecow.
"That means we should be due for another one any second now," reported STAREYe. He then pulled his mace out of the ground, which caused the floor to collapse and the three fell into the darkness.
"Yup. You were right."
"Get off my foot."
"Why should I?"
"Because my foot is our light, dummy."
"Oh, right."
Urza then got off STAREYe's foot, which emitted a nice gruple glow over the room. He described it as... nothing, seeing as he was lazy.

Using the 'gruple' glow, they managed to see that they were in the basement of the restaurant.
"Duh," said Urza. "What kind of discovery was that?"
"Hey shut up, you're the one who can't spell purple."
"Well you got us into here, with your stupid mace."
"Well if we hadn't been walking backwards we never would have been attacked!"
"WELL AT LEAST I DON'T DANCE AROUND WITH A PINK BUNNY ON MY HEAD!"
"Guys, shut up!" yelled bluecow, he then pointed towards a wall. "There's a door right there, now c'mon."
The three walked through the door, and just then the foot-light went out.
"Hey, what's wrong with the light?" bluecow asked.
"Oops, I guess I forgot to put in new batteries,"
"Well," said Urza "we're lucky that I brought my brand new...

...laser-tronic backwash detoxifier! It can laser-tronically detoxify backwashed orange juice, root beer, or you choice flavour of powerade in only 32.6667854 seconds! It also works* as a butter knife, a pair of scissors, a weed eater, a butcher knife, a dog grooming brush, a blender, and a stick of deodorant! All for only four payments of $19.95!"

*Does not actually work.

STAREYe & bluecow: ...STFU N00B Urza: But I have this handy dandy flashlight for onl- *STAREYe whacks Urza with his pink hare and takes the flashlight*

"Hey," said STAREYe, whacking Urza with the flashlight. "What happened to the narrative rule?" he then turned on the flashlight to find that the walls are pink and moving. Needless to say the heroes still thought they were in a cave instead of some sort of giant beast.
"Hey guys!" Urza piped up, "You don't think we're in some sort of giant be-" he was immediately clobbered with the flashlight again.
"Hey, let's try those stairs over there," suggested bluecow.
"Heehee..." giggled the dazed Urza, "Crazy German subtitle..."
Suddenly, JapanMan fell from the ceiling, landed on STAREYe, and ran off!
"Say Urza," growled STAREYe, "does that thing work as a net too?"
"Yes, it also works* as rope, string, cord, yar-" Urza then received yet another clobbering.
STAREYe threw the LTBD at JapanMan, and managed to capture** him with it! "Yes!" shouted STAREYe, "let's get him and find out where we are and why he's here!"

*As stated before, it sucks and won't really work.

**It didn't really work of course, JapanMan just tripped over a rock.

"What are you doing here?" Urza growled at JapanMan as he struggled to his feet.
"Well, you're in my pet hippo, what else was I supposed to do?"
"Hippo? What hippo? And more importantly, is he a hungry, hungry hippo?" Urza asked nervously.
"Umm...actually..."
At this point a large white ball started rolling at them from the entrance, and everybody ran.
While running, STAREYe of course had to start singing the hungry hungry hippo song.

"Hungry hungry hipp-OS! Hungry hungry hipp-OS!"

As STAREYe sang and the others ran in terror, they were all eventually hit by a white ball and fell down into the hippo's stomach.

***

"Not to worry!" shouted STAREYe, hours later, after the four of them regained consciousness, "I have my magic spatula! It can de anything, except kill toasters." He then waved the spatula and the stomach lit up, revealing an army of toasters surrounding them.
Then SoccerNess rushed in and flipped the switch on the leader of the angry toasters.
"One down, 86 to go,"
"Okay, wtf are you doing inside JapanMan's pet hippo?" asked STAREYe, while trying to dodge toast and flip switches at the same time. "83, 82, 81..."
"Well, you said to just jump in, you never said my entrance had to be explained." He said, smacking a piece of toast with his weapon of choice which I will edit this to say when I find out what it is. "Fair enough." said STAREYe, flipping some toast with his spatula.

Chaos! JapanMan's hippo's bladder exploded! The toasters were shorted out by the urine. Everyone else was just covered in it. "Great job SoccerNess, you loser!" shouted STAREYe.
"Its not my fault! I was in my room, doing stuff, and then I just appeared in this Hippo." SoccerNess replied.
"Well, at least the attacking toasters are taken care of," STAREYe commented. "Now I can just use my spatula to clean us off, and figure out where we are."
After they were clean, the spatula started spinning, and suddenly stopped, making STAREYe, who was holding it, nearly fall over. "That means That Place is in that direction," he said, pointing over a huge pit of toxic waste full dangerous things that could kill them.
"It's not going to be easy getting through that toxic waste," said SoccerNess. "We need to find some space suits or some crap like that." So STAREYe took his spatula and hit some hobo on the head and stole his briefcase. Ness and his friends found $50! But STAREYe and his friends found ...secret plans for world domination!
"Sweet!" Shouted STAREYe, "I just saved the world!"
"Hey you know..." said Urza, looking through the plans, "This looks like it could really work."
"Really?" said STAREYe, stopping what was his idea of a victory dance, "Lemme see those."
"No way f00, they're mine now."
"I'll give you $50."
"Score!" shouted Urza, handing STAREYe what looked like the plans, but was actually just the binder with a picture of a smilie face inside. SoccerNess had already swiped them, and hid them in his backpack, which was promptly raided by bluecow.
"Now," said STAREYe, tucking the binder in his pocket, "we need scuba/space/whatever suits. Urza has the money, so he can go over to that store over there called "Scuba/Space/Whatever Suits 'R' Us" and buy us some.

"Umm...wow. JapanMan really need to industrialize his stomach if he ever plans to make any money." Urza said with his mastery of SimJapanMan. Walking over to the store, the automatic doors opened cheerful for him, then slammed shut quickly on his ankles as he walked through. The store was actually a mimic, and it was eating his clothes alive!
"WTF man," said STAREYe, pulling Urza out of the door. "what was that all about?"
"THAT DOOR WAS EATING MY CLOTHES!!" He yelled, running and hiding behind a stick.
"Right. Here, gimme the money and I'll buy our junk then." STAREYe then entered the store, despite Urza's warnings, and found they had a sale, four whatever suits for only $7! He quickly bought the junk, and hid the excess money in his pocket. After going back outside, he tossed them each a suit.
"What about me?" asked JapanMan.
"You're not here anymore. You got blasted away with your hippo."
"Oh snap."

So, the heroes waded through the toxic sludge and managed to get back to That Place. Oddly, it seemed to be back to normal instead of moderated by Satan.
"It must be a trap" said Urza.
"No, it couldn't be," said bluecow. He walked in and was promptly attacked by a band of marauding satanic hillbillies.
While was happening, JapanMan popped up and bellowed some nonsense about being a burning stalker or something, called them all jerks and left. Not entirely sure of what just happened, STAREYe picked a pipe off and started beating off the hillbillies with it. This could have been rather effective, except that it wasn't a metal pipe, but instead on of those fancy pipes old people smoke with.
Urza, however, knew the correct solution. Calling in an air raid, Kooper dropped in in hillbilly clothes and a banjo and promptly started to play a ramblin' jig, and everyone but STAREYe started to dance. This left STAREYe to defeat the hillbillies by attacking their weak spot, their elbows. With the threat of the hillbillies behind them, the heroes set off to finally reclaim That Place.

On the way, Fobbio and SoccerNess stopped to feed the ducks. However, these were Mad Ducks! So of course they did a lot of falling down and stuff like that. They made something spin around and SoccerNess lost 3 PP! "Aw darn," said he. Mad Duck Y (Yes, there were 25 Mad Ducks in all) made Fobbio not able to concentrate. STAREYe finished off the rest of the hillbillies, and ran over to the pond and kicked over the ducks, releasing Fobbio and SoccerNess from their unPPed state. They then ran to catch up with the others, but promptly fell down a hole.
The others yelled down the hole to see where Fobbio and SoccerNess had fallen too, but got no response. It seemed to be a bottom-less pit. The only option left was for everyone else to jump down after them.
Well as it turns out, the pit was not bottomless. Someone had dug a hole all the freakin' way to China, and that's where the heroes eventually ended up. "Ouch!" yelled SoccerNess to bluecow, "Get the **** off my foot!" So after being so close to finally reaching That Place, they were once again far far away.
So upon walking around China for a few hours, the heroes just happen to come across a super long ladder that they thought could help get them up the hole and back to where they were. But would it work?
"LETS TRY IT!" Yelled JapanMan. Nobody was sure where him and Fobbio had come from, but the larger a group you have, the less likely you are to die.

Just as they were about to try to climb back up the hole, some cliché Chinese karate experts attacked. After all, you can't go to China and not be attacked by karate guys.
"Wait," said Fobbio. "You guys can't be karate guys."
The Karate guys babbled some Chinese, which nobody understood. Fortunately, about knee-high in the air, subtitles appeared: Why not?
"Because Karate is Japanese, you should be Kung Fu guys."
Oh. So they suddenly became Kung Fu guys. Now, prepare to die!
Fortunatly, JapanMan excels in the sacred Canadian artform, snowball throwing. He quickly ducked to scoop some snow, but than realized he was in China.
"Crap, well I'm out, maybe the poke of death will work?"
So they all started poking the Kungrati Fu Ninjas in the eyes. After they were all defeated, they grabbed the ladder and shoved it down the hole. What they didn't realize, was that three feet away from the hole was another hole that led to a gateway to another dimension.

Of course, being the bright bunch of kids our heroes are, they chose the wrong one and found themselves in a purple forest with a guy with three hands glued to his head.
"Welcome to the Restaurant at the end of the Universe," he said with a welsh accent, "I hope you enjoy your stay. Give me a dollar."
"A DOLLAR? That's an ABSURD price for a restaurant...American or Canadian?"
"Both and more, dummy."
"Screw you," yelled STAREYe, "We already have a restaurant!"
"Besides," said Urza, "you have to fight ninjas to get here, that can't be good for business."
"Fools..." muttered the man, who then threw off his cloak to reveal ...that he was indeed completely naked! Everyone gasped in horror and made funny gestures as they covered their eyes and ran screaming out of the place, having finally found something scarier than Satan.

The sheer horror of it all sent the six of them back to their dimension. Which is lucky because five or six minutes later, a giant foot squished the one they were in.
"So..." said SoccerNess, "Where are we now?"
"New York?" Suggested STAREYe.
"Now York isn't a desert," pointed out bluecow.
"Oh. Then maybe we're not in New York." "OH NOS," yelled JapanMan, "We are in the middle of the Sahara, miles upon miles away from any civilization, or water.. We are doomed!"
"We only have one chance," declared bluecow, "cannibalism!"
"Who's up from some blue beef?"
"Hey now," said bluecow, "let's be rational." JapanMan replied with,
"Ok I get the arms, STAREYe you get his left leg-"
"That's not what I meant!" exclaimed bluecow. After a long debate, the group decided not to eat bluecow after all.
"Well now what ****face?" said JapanMan to bluecow. "Well..."
"Wait," STAREYe yelled, "there's a city right over there!" He was right, they had been standing right outside a city the whole time, but didn't notice it.

So needless to say, some members of the posse were pretty happy. The group decide to head to the city, as it was right there. Upon arrival, they wanted food so they went and got some. After that, SoccerNess, being as fashionable as he is, and STAREYe with his pimped out earring, decided to check out some shops.
"Wait," complained JapanMan, "STAREYe stuffs junk through his ear, so he gets to go shopping? Screw you, I'm going to."
"Yeah, me too," said bluecow.
"How 'bout you Urza, you coming too?"
"mmg, ung," grunted Urza, who had fallen asleep. "No, no ...I didn't order any whale soup."
So the four of them (Fobbio went elsewhere, and didn't give any details) left Urza at the restaurant, and went to a mall.

Once at the mall, the first place they stopped was the arcade. SoccerNess dominated at air hockey. Pretty soon they were out of cash so they left. The posse decided to head upstairs so they took the elevator. However, it broke or something (JapanMan suspected that the power was cut) so the heroes were stuck in the elevator.
"Well this sucks." said STAREYe. They were momentarily stumped. Then bluecow whipped out his cell phone and called Urza to come help them. Not for good, Urza was still hungover and sleeping, so the group decided to climb through the roof of the elevator.

"Hmm," said STAREYe, "I can't reach him." After they had got the roof of the elevator open, then had lifted each other up through it, and of course now JapanMan was stuck at the bottom.
"Here," said SoccerNess, "I'll grab your ankles and you see if you can get him."
While this was going on, bluecow found a cool coin. Now, if bluecow had known this this coin was a tool created by some evil monster or something hundreds of years ago, meant to be the destruction of the Earth, he probably wouldn't have picked it up and put it in his pocket. But he didn't, so he did. And of course it immediately transformed him into a giant minotaur with laser eyes and bunny ears.
Of course, the weight of a huge minotaur on the top of the elevator caused it to fall. This caused our heroes to go into a battle while falling through the air, kinda like it FF3 (or whatever one that battle's in). Unfortunately, this minotaur was even stronger when falling through the air like in FF3 .
"Well, it's a good thing it's like that battle in whatever game, because that means we won't land until its over." said STAREYe. Suddenly the elevator got stuck, and the floor fell off. Our heroes managed to grab hold of something before they fell out, and with quick thinking, SoccerNess kicked the minotaur in the side, knocking the coin out of its pocket, and into the pit of alligators that everyone knows is really what's under an elevator. This caused bluecow to go back to normal, but the gator that swallowed the ring mutated. But then the elevator got unstuck and crushed him, so it was all good.

END OF CHAPTER TWO.
