Chapter Two- The cloak incident
Welcome to the second chapter of 'The misadventures'. Note that most of these ficlets occur in normal age time, which means Rayne is 13. Also, in this chapter, we have a special guest appearance of Maria Despair!
Maria walks up waving
Flame: Hello Maria. How are you?
Maria: I'm good. A little tired, but good.
DA: Alright then. Felix, would you like to do this disclaimer?
Felix: Disclaimer- Rayne and –
A nearby wall explodes violently. MJ appears, dancing and singing
DA: -Blinks- That was odd. Anyways, Felix, the disclaimer please?
-Turns to see Felix huddled up in a corner-
DA: Oh God. Flame, do something about Felix. Flame?
-Sees Flame huddled up next to Felix-
DA: Okay then….MJ, you do it then.
MJ: Alright!
Felix and Flame: NOOOOOO! Don't let him! The world will end if he does it!
MJ: Disclaimer- Rayne belongs to Dark Angel. Maria belongs to Xenolord. Felix-
–Felix cringes at the sound of her name-
-belongs to both Flame-tiger and Dark-Angel. All three don't own me. They also don't own Robina.
DA: Let the story begin!
"Here you go Felix" Rayne smirked as she handed the cat demon a bucket and mop. "Have fun."
Felix glared at the commander and trudged off sullenly.
"Why do I have to do this?" She grumbled. "I mean comon! I leave some invisible weapons lying around, get pirates after me, disobey a couple of order, and she blows up at me, and forces me to do THIS!"
Felix sighed as she walked into the laundry room, and filled the bucket up with water. She dipped the mop into it, and slapped it onto the floor. After swabbing it for a few minutes, she tilted her had as she spotted something on a nearby counter.
The mop clattered as it hit the floor. Felix ran to it, and quickly pinked it up. She gasped as she got a clear view of it.
It was black on the inside and white on the out, and it appeared to be reversible, with a hood. The demon fingered the cloak gingerly. It seemed to be made of a smooth, light material, which was very durable. It was perfect for keeping heat in and cold out, or vice versa. Stitched in small, precise print on the front were two letters: R.A
"This is Rayne's favourite cloak!" Felix exclaimed as she saw the initials. "I'd probably better give it to her." She turned to the door, but stopped suddenly. "Or…" A wily smile played across her face. "I could have some fun."
"Ow!" Felix rubbed her head and hissed at the chest she was digging through. She dove into it again, and gave a happy 'nya!' as she found what she was looking for: A thin, long strip or black cloth. Retracting a claw (part of her cat demon abilities, she cut off part of it, and bit out two holes.
She dropped it, and pulled the cloak over her shoulders. Fumbling with the clasp for a minute, she smiled in satisfaction as it came together. She picked the cloth up. Tying it around her eyes, she ran to a nearby mirror. She gave a Cheshire cat smile to her reflection, and finally sprinted outside, back to Battleon.
Old Mrs. Peabody looked fondly at the row of houses. She had lived in Battleon for all her life. It was hectic at time, with the constant wars, and that little moglin –what was his name? Sorbet?- running around, saying he was the 'ebilist moglin' and threatening to hurt people, but she loved it anyways, quirks and all.
She took a few steps forward, and froze when something landed in front of her. She gasped and clutched her bag of groceries. The thing stood up, and she could see that it was someone with odd ears, wearing a cloak.
"I AM SUPERFELIX!" It yelled out "DEFENDER OF TEH INNOCENT!" The person finally noticed her. "MA'AM! LET ME HELP YOU WITH THOSE BAGS!"
The person suddenly grabbed her bags. Mrs. Peabody screamed, drew the hand with the bags over her head, and slammed the 'thief' over the head. "Nya!" Felix whined out, covering her head. "MA'AM, STAY CALM! I AM TRYING TO HELP!"
"Thief! Bandit!" She wailed as she gave 'Superfelix' another whack. Felix caught the bags, dashed off with them, and crashed into a nearby window.
The owners of the house stares, wide-eyed, as the 'superhero' stood up, and placed the groceries onto the (luckily) still intact table.
She placed her hands on her hips, and looked heroically out of the broken window. "GROCERIES HAVE BEEN DELIVERED; GOODBYE CITIZENS!" With that, Felix jumped out of the broken window and ran off.
A few moments later, Mrs. Peabody came, and looked to the owners (who had come outside). The owners looked back at her.. They all took a deep breath, and screamed out a single word.
"HEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!"
Near immediately, Rayne, Robina, and Maria appeared. "What's the problem?"
"T-this thing came out and tried to attack me! I defended myself, but it got away eventually."
"We were just sitting here, and then this thing crashed through the window. It got up, set these bags onto the table, said something about civilians, and jumped back through the window." The owners glowered at the window, then sighed and stared back to the three.
"Could you tell us what the attacker looked like?" Robina asked as she pulled out a notebook and quill, hand poised to write.
"It was wearing this mask, and a black an-"
"Black and white cloak?" Rayne interrupted. The owners and Mrs. Peabody nodded.
"Did it have cat ears?" Once again, they nodded.
"Felix." Rayne growled out angrily. "Robina; it's okay, we don't need your help anymore. You can go back to the inn." Robina closed her notebook and shrugged.
"Alright."
Maria gave a confused look to Rayne. "How can you tell it's Felix?" Rayne rubbed her temples, and shut her eyes, "'Cause only Felix would do something like this." Maria 'ahhed'. "What about the cloak?"
"She must've found it when she was cleaning earlier." Rayne sighed, and opened her eyes.
"Comon, were going to the forest."
"Why the forest?"
"'Cause knowing Felix, she's probably going to try and slay a monster." Maria 'ahhed' once more, and ran after Rayne.
Felix swished her tail as she crouched, hidden, in a tree.
'Wish the monsters would come.' She thought as she peered down below her. 'Speak of the devil.' She saw two approaching figures. 'Now how to do this…I know! I'll jump on the second one! Their friend should be too far ahead to hear by then.'
Felix snickered happily, and hushed herself as the figures came closer. She waited until the first one had passed.
'3…' Felix leaned over slightly, and positioned herself to jump.
'2…' 'Why do I have a bad feeling all of a sudden?' Rayne thought as she passed another tree
"ONE! SUPERFELIX ATTACK!" Felix voiced as she leapt out of the tree. Rayne blinked and stared up. "Oh crap."
Felix landed on Rayne's back and started clawing at her face. "Nya!" She hissed out, and gave a particularly good scratch.
"What the- GET THE HELL OFF OF ME!" Rayne roared out and tried to pull Felix of her. "MARIA HELP!!!"
Maria turned around, and gasped at the sight. She ran back to them, took hold of Felix's tale and pulled hard.
Felix froze suddenly, and shivered at the pain. Rayne grabbed Felix's wrists, and flipped her to the ground. Felix groaned quietly. Rayne shook her head, rubbed her face, and walked over to Felix.
"Alright Felix; funs over." Felix gasped and jumped to her feet. She pointed a finger in horror at Rayne.
"How did you know my secret identity?"
Rayne made a disgusted sound, and Maria looked at her sceptically. "Maybe it's the fact that you keep calling yourself Superfelix, not to mention you do stick out with the ears and all. And comon, how many people with cat ears do we know named Felix?"
"Uh…there's one!" Felix pointed out.
"Felix, that's a rock." Rayne sighed.
"No, that one!"
"That's a tee." Maria rolled her eyes.
"Over there!"
"Felix, that's a Lycan." They slapped their hands to their heads. "Wait…."
"THAT'S A LYCAN!" All 3 yelled out. Felix turned around and sprinted off, with Rayne, Maria, and the Lycan in tow, in that order.
"Felix, if we make it out of this, WERE GOING TO KILL YOU!" The two screamed at her.
"And I want my cloak back!"
The end…for now.
DA: -stares at a still screaming Felix and Flame- You know he's gone now.
Flame & Felix: OOOOOOOOOOOOO- He's gone?
Maria: -nods- Yup. He left right after the disclaimer.
Flame & Felix- oh. –looks at each other- NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
DA: -glares- anyways, that's the end of another chapter.
