Boogie Down!
This fic DC7 gave me the idea. Thank you DC7, please PM me if I get this wrong.
Phantom girl walked into the common room and slouched down on the sofa, followed by Shrinking Violet, Timber wolf, Cham, Brainy, Lightning lad and Saturn girl.
"Ok, so like we just beat the Fatal five and we're tired and aching?" Cham whined… "Sure why not,"
"Just stop whining!" Phantom girl snapped, and then covered her mouth… "Oh I'm sorry Cham,"
"It's ok, it's not everyday someone… um never mind," Cham accepted.
Vi placed a hand on Brainy's shoulder before a light engulfed the room. Timber wolf, who had been leaning on a chair, fell backwards and hit his head.
"Yeeouwch!" He howled.
Lightning lad looked round.
"I see we're not in the tower, but somewhere else," Lightning lad confessed.
"We already know," Saturn girl growled.
"Welcome Legion!" A male voice echoed in the room… "I am your Host, Inestine, I have brought you here for you face dance or death,"
"Um excuse 'Inestine' but are you supposed to be dead?" Brainy asked.
"I am! You my friends are underground with the living dead," Inestine answered.
"So can you please send us back to OUR world?" Saturn girl questioned.
"No can do," Inestine replied.
"Why not?" Phantom girl quizzed.
"Because you have to dance or die," Inestine sighed… "If you don't dance, you die. And stay down here with us 'dead' people,"
Cham gulped before saying…
"So what are we dancing to?"
"Ahhhh, some pop, jive, rock and classic," Inestine squealed with laughter.
"Oh, so let's get started. I'd rather dance than die," Lightning lad admitted… "It can't get any worse,"
"But, but, but. You have to dance with a partner, PLUS your partner has to be a different gender than yourself," Inestine ordered.
Lightning lad looked guiltily at Saturn girl who motioned him to come over.
"Just let's get this over with," She whispered down his ear.
Timber wolf walked over to Phantom girl who was squealing with joy. Brainy went with Violet and placed his hand on her hip. She automatically jumped. Cham looked round at his fellow legionnaires.
"Um, excuse me Mr. Professor, Sir. I haven't got a partner," Cham stammered happily… "I guess I shall just have to watch,"
"Oh no you won't, it's either dance or DIE," Inestine tutted… "You wouldn't like that would you?"
"Um, no Sir, but where's my partner?" Cham queried.
"Ahhhh it seems I didn't zap enough of you did I?" Inestine mumbled… "Well there's only one way left…"
"Please don't kill me," Cham stuttered going down on his knees. But Inestine mumbled a few words and he was gone. Cham then reappeared in a glass tanks with water up to his knees… "You must dance all the dances or your friend will drown!"
All the legionnaires looked un happily at each other and started dancing to ball room music.
