A necessary distraction...

Jul 02, 2008 20:25

On a hot summer night, SumaBura and the surrounding area seem perfectly serene. The only sounds are distant traffic, restless crickets, and maybe quiet chatter amongst students headed to their dorms.

Another sound, barely audible, joins the night music: a match bring struck, followed by something sizzling.

Suddenly...

Around the streets nearby, an annoyingly long limousine was making its rounds. This limousine belonged to Porky himself, but he seemed restless tonight. With parts of his tower broken apart, he's filled with too much hate to really sleep well. His arms were crossed and he was looking down at his own legs. Surprisingly enough, for once, he was quiet. Sitting next to him was Ms. Marshmallow, who was finally rebuilt. Porky took her along to celebrate her revival. Andonuts, who the heroes failed to rescue, and the other Pig Mask scientist quickly rebuilt her. Now, she was stronger and faster than ever, just like Porky promised. After hearing explosions, Porky gasped loudly and started looking from left to right. "Calm down, my King..." Marshmallow said, looking out the window and back, "It's only fireworks," "F-fireworks? ... R-right. It's that time of the year, so I guess we should expect it," Porky said. Ms. Marshmallow put a hand on her King P's lap and gave him a warm smile. "Please don't worry. I'm here," she said. Seconds later ( ... )

"Wow!"

Mallow leaned out his dorm window, watching the display. It'd been a while since he'd seen fireworks... He almost forgot how beautiful they were!

The noises he could do without, but at least the dazzling array of lights made it all worthwhile.

The young Prince set his elbows on the windowsill and held his puffy head in his hands, smiling. "I hope everyone else is awake for this..."

Luckily for Jeff, [and unluckily for] Samus was at her gunship tinkering with the healing stasis mechanics, and not at her dorm when the fireworks went off. Lately, her ship had been getting used more and more for healing people other than herself so she was trying to remedy the kinks and imperfections that came along with it...

Though, she wasn't too thrilled her gunship becoming a walk-in clinic, she was willing to make special exceptions. Exceptional exceptions. She had to get it ready for Jeff tomorrow/Friday, after all! [Oh, the irony.]

As the fireworks burst into the air loudly and lit up the hot summer's night sky, Samus peeked her head out of the top hatch of her ship. "...fireworks?"

Unluckily for Jeff, [and... luckily?] for Samus, the unexpected fireworks show piqued her curiosity. It was obviously at the school and she had heard nothing about it. She assumed it was Falcon's doing, or some stupid student prank, or perhaps something more sinister ( ... )

Beads of sweat covered every inch of Jeff's face that wasn't hidden behind black fabric. He opened the door to the staff wing as quickly and silently as possible, ducking inside. He pressed his back against a wall and stared down the empty hallway.

Nobody in sight. This was a good start.

The boy fumbled with a ninja-pocket somewhere on his person, extracting a certain janitor. He set Chibi-Robo on the ground in front of him, whispering, "you know where Ms. Aran's room is, right?"

The little robot had, moments ago, walked through a Chibi-Door with the intent of cleaning Jeff's dormitory. It was promptly whisked away for some reason, instructions relayed into it soon.

And the little guy was just not the type to deny a request.

It nodded its head and showed its trademark "[ ! ]" sign before it pointed towards the nearest door. It was the first floor, after all. The little robot was not allowed in there however.

But... it did want to clean... A sort of programmed urge.

And it was going to make the student happy, after all, was it not?

"Thanks a bunch. You, uhm... Stay here and keep watch, okay?"

Because a mute, non-threatening, miniature robot was going to make a great sentry. Next time he'd have to make one like the one from the Monotoli building.

Perhaps a little over dramatically, Jeff crept towards the door and inspected it for a special kind of lock or security camera. It was only natural an inventor would want to take precautions to protect their sanctuary... of course, it was also natural another would want to break in.

"...?" Ness lifted the headphone from his left ear, quirking an eyebrow as the familiar sound of huge explosives going off quickly drowned out the wailing trumpet and sax of the Runaway Five. He looked up from his physics textbook to see the vibrant blossoms between the rustling leaves overhead, and scooted forward on his rear out from underneath the tree to get a better view. A small smile split his face and he burst into a quiet and short-lived fit of laughter, flopping back onto the grass with the book in his lap, arms folded behind his head. This was quite the welcome distraction, whoever was behind it, and admittedly he had his assumptions.
