AN APRIL MADNESS.
By Ninetalesuk.
*Charlie and Sasha's home*
(Shane and Ruby were visiting Sasha... As they enter, they found Sasha
down in the dumps).
SHANE:Sis! Whats the matter?
SASHA:Shane... Yesterday's date, what was it?
SHANE:Er.... 31st..
SASHA:Of what?
SHANE:March... oh...
SASHA:Yeah! 'Oh'! Today is April the 1st and its April Fools Day! Which
means Charlie is gonna
pull a trick on us!
RUBY:Not until WE pull a trick on HIM!
SASHA:(Smiling) What ya saying, Ruby?
RUBY:What I'm saying IS that you take the kids and say to Charlie that
your leaving him...
When he finally gets down on his knees and beg, you'll reveal your
trick to him!
SASHA:Hmm.... not bad... not bad.... Why not?! I'll try it anyway! But,
where shall I sleep?
SHANE:You and the kids can sleep with us...
RUBY:Where is Charlie by the way?
SASHA:I ask him to take over a while....
SHANE:Well, we'll get someone to tell Charlie that you left him,
Sasha...
(Shane smiled and looked out of the window...)
SHANE:And I know whos perfect!
*Flea Bite Cafe*
(Ninetalesuk and Shaina were talking to Vullen and Vult).
NINETALESUK:All right, listen you guys.... There are rumours that 2 or
3 members of Team Rocket
is somewhere in this area!
VULT:Oh no!! NOT Team Rocket!!
NINETALESUK:Yeah... Team Rocket! Those bunch of cruel hearted trainers!
Won't they EVER give up?!
VULLEN:Same thing as Slowbro getting smart.... No chance!
SHAINA:What shall we do?
NINETALESUK:Well... I told the other Pokemon that we should keep our
ears to the ground for
information.... after telling Slowbro NOT to get onto the floor and put
his ear on the ground...
Yeesh...
VULT:What Pokemon these Rockets have?
NINETALESUK:Its Houndoom, Scizor and Golem.... Me, you and Vullen have
the advantage against
Scizor but, I'm gonna go and find Vaporeon as hes got advantages over
Houndoom and Golem.
SHAINA:So... what now?
NINETALESUK:I'm going out to find Vaporeon... Its 8 o'clock in the
morning... Hes taking his
early bath at the park... I'll be right back.
(Ninetalesuk left.... Vult turned around and saw Growlithe coming in...
He quickly walked up to
him and took him over to a corner).
VULT:Growlithe, have you got it?
GROWLITHE:Yep!
(Growlithe handed Vult a small black box).
GROWLITHE:You gave me the cash and I gone and got your gift for
Vullen...
VULT:Yep... Ever since I am dating Ninetales' sister out... she and I
are VERY in love with
each other...
GROWLITHE:Well, who wouldn't(?)
VULT:Can I see it?
GROWLITHE:Sure...
(Vult took the box and opened it... It was a chunky gold braclet...
Vult was stunned).
VULT:A braclet?
GROWLITHE:24-carot gold identity braclet. Its even got her name on
it...
VULT:(Reads it) Vollen.
GROWLITHE:No... Its Vullen.
VULT:Its Vollen... Theres an 'O' where the 'U' is.... Where did you get
it?
GROWLITHE:From the Sneasel thats been owned by the exporter.
VULT:Oh no... Sneasel's trainer is an EX-PORTER, hes got sacked at the
railway lines!
GROWLITHE:Oh.... Anyway... its Vullen on there... Its copper-plated
writing....
VULT:I'll try and tell her THAT! Okay, okay, I'll give her the gift....
GROWLITHE:Good for you.
(Charlie was at the bar and was tending to the next customer, who
was....)
CHARLIE:Hey, Killer.
KILLER:Hello, Charlie.
CHARLIE:What are you here for?
KILLER:I came to get a takeaway from Burger King for Carface... I just
popped in to say hello
before I go and get the order...
CHARLIE:Hmm... better not let that Carface get even madder at ya,
right?
KILLER:Yes... Oh, speaking of mad... I saw that Poliwrath from the
'Fighting Colony'... You know,
the time when your insane cousin, Angus, arrived and Sasha's sister,
Shaina came?
CHARLIE:Yeah?
KILLER:He came up to me and demanded to know where you were.. He was
pretty angry about something
that he said about a exploding banana... Are you having any problems
with him, Charlie?
CHARLIE:No, no, no, no, Killer.... Nothing BUT a adult chat to work out
our problems..... If you
see him again, Killer... Tell him I've gone to live in New Zealand.
KILLER:*Laughs* All right... I'll remember that for you.
CHARLIE:Heh... Anything else?
KILLER:Yeah... I saw Shane and he told me that Sasha left ya...
CHARLIE:Oh.... (Reacts to what Killer said) What?!
(Charlie was now stunned.... The cafe was quiet until....)
VULLEN:(Reads braclet) Vollen?
*Flea Bite Cafe*
(It was an hour later and Charlie was yelling at Shane.... Ninetalesuk
was with them).
CHARLIE:Shane! Why has Sasha left me?! What have I done to her?!
SHANE:Nothing.... except pretending to be the 'Perfect Dog' in her
dreams...
CHARLIE:That was a long time ago!
NINETALESUK:Would be funny if I said 'It was yesterday', would it?
CHARLIE:Shut up! Sasha left me with the kids... I'm all alone now....
Its horrible there...
SHANE:You got Angus with ya...
CHARLIE:Thats what I mean!
NINETALESUK:This is a strange day... Isn't it? Sasha has left ya for no
reason, a mad Poliwrath
is after your blood and Vult has given my sister a braclet that says
'Vollen'... Couldn't be
better, does it(?)
CHARLIE:How can I get her back to me?
SHANE:Well... Give her time... She and the kids are staying at my
place.... Once she finally
feels better.. You can give her a call...
CHARLIE:Yeah.... Yeah, okay... If I feel lonely, I can have Itchy's
company or spend time with
my sister, Ashley.
NINETALESUK:That will be impossible... Shes going out with Stryker
tonight.
CHARLIE:At least she and Stryker can see me....
NINETALESUK:Go home... You better get some rest...
CHARLIE:Sure...
SHANE:I'll take over the bar... Sasha will be here tomorrow.
CHARLIE:Then, I'll leave her alone.
(Charlie walked out... Ninetalesuk turned to Shane, smiling).
NINETALESUK:I know what you, Ruby AND Sasha are up to! Its an April
Fools joke, isn't it?
SHANE:Yeah, thats right. Your not gonna tell Charlie are you?
NINETALESUK:No... I want you to pay him back for pulling that trick on
me last year by giving me
a exploding banana. I hope nobody else will fall for THAT again.
SHANE:Why do you think that Poliwrath is after Charlie's blood?
(Ninetalesuk and Shane laughed together... Then, Vullen rushed in).
VULLEN:Ninetales!
NINETALESUK:Vullen, whats the matter?
VULLEN:Team Rocket are outside! We gotta stop 'em before they attack
the cafe!
NINETALESUK:Right! Come on, Vollen! Er... I mean, Vullen!
VULLEN:(Points to braclet around her ankle) Stupid braclet!
*Flea Bite Cafe... 7 hours later*
(It was nighttime....)
GROWLITHE:You know... I think this story is gonna be finished before
you could say Sheena Easton!
CHARLEON:Sheena Easton... you lair!
(As I was saying... It was nighttime...., the pub was crowded... Shane,
Ruby and Gerta were
doing the bar, ordering the drinks for the customers and bring the
drinks to them... At one end
of the corner, Charlie was on the phone... waiting for an answer....
Shane, Ruby and Gerta were
in a conversation.... Shane was leaning on the bar-flap).
SHANE:So... Thanks to Ninetales and Vullen..., they saved the cafe from
Team Rocket... Using
Vullen's Confuse Ray and her Dig attack along with Ninetales' Fire
Blast and Take Down, the
Rockets were defeated and been arrested.
RUBY:They were great fighters they were....
GERTA:Well... Looks like Charlie is upset...
SHANE:I talked to Sasha two minutes before I came to the cafe... She
decided to stop the joke
now.. So, all you have to do, Gerta, is to convince Charlie to call
Sasha at our place...
GERTA:Whos with her at your place?
RUBY:Ashley is with her....
SHANE:Right!
RUBY:You know, Shane... I want to go home...
SHANE:Why?
RUBY:I just want to go home...
(Shane, getting the idea, smiled. He got up from the counter and
positioned his hat... As he got
up, Gerta lifted the bar-flap up, carrying a phone. Get ready...)
SHANE:All right... Gerta, you can continue the bar until 11:00, then
you can close it....
(Shane then started to lean back onto the non-existing counter.... and
crashes straight through
and onto the floor. Ruby and Gerta were rolling with laugher, before
watching him stand back up.
He smiled, embrassed).
SHANE:Heh... Whoops...
RUBY:*Laughs* So, Shane-mah-boy, had a nice fall?
SHANE:Er... yeah...
GERTA:Shane... Its Spring now, honey... Not fall!
SHANE:Okay, okay...
GERTA:What are you so upset about, Shane?
RUBY:Yeah... You always said that you always fall for me...
(Gerta and Ruby were now rolling with laughter.... Shane sighed and
with Ruby, left the cafe...
After Gerta stopped laughing, she walked over and handed Charlie a
phone).
GERTA:Here, Charlie...
CHARLIE:Whats this, Gerta?
GERTA:Well... You can call Sasha and tell her how you feel...
CHARLIE:Yeah? No, wait... I can't... Shes still have ta recover... Shes
only left me this morning
you know...
GERTA:Shane told me that she wants YOU to call her...
CHARLIE:Really?
GERTA:Yeah... call her...
(Gerta left Charlie with the phone... He picks it up and pressed the
numbers for Shane's home..
After it rang a few times, somebody finally answers).
CHARLIE:Hello? Hello, dear, listen-don't say ANYTHING, just don't say
anything. Just, just listen
to me while I'm in this mood. Right now, I'm missing you darling and I
want you to come home.
Now I know I haven't been very fair to you, look, I may have pulled
that 'Perfect Dog' trick on
you, but thats in the past. If you can give me the chance to
explain.... I'll tell you that I
love you and that will never EVER change... Things'll be different in
the future... So, love,
what do you say?
ASHLEY:(On phone) Shall I get Sasha for you? *Laughs*
CHARLIE:Ashley?! Sorry about that.... Can you get Sasha on the line,
please?
ASHLEY:(On phone) Sure, Chuckie.... I'll meet you at your place with
Stryker and Itchy.
CHARLIE:All right.
(Charlie waited for Sasha to come on....)
SASHA:(On phone) Hello?
CHARLIE:Sasha... Look, whatever I done to you... Let me say I'm sorry..
I'm missing you...
SASHA:(On phone) I'm missing you too, Charlie.
CHARLIE:I wondered what you were doing without me...
SASHA:(On phone) I wonder if you have noticed todays date...
CHARLIE:Todays date? Hold on... Gerta, whats today?
GERTA:April 1st!
CHARLIE:Thanks! (Back on phone) April 1st. The date when April Fools
Day is on...... (Reacts what
he said) You... You played a trick on me!?
SASHA:(On phone) Yeah! This will teach ya to play that 'Perfect Dog'
trick on mou...
CHARLIE:Sorry... Look, I will never EVER play another trick on you or
any of my family members...
Is that okay?
SASHA:(On phone) Yeah.... Listen, tomorrow, I'll move back in with the
kids... okay?
CHARLIE:Sure... What time?
SASHA:(On phone) In the afternoon. Okay?
CHARLIE:Okay... I do love ya.
SASHA:(On phone) I know... I love ya too...
(Charlie placed the phone and cheered. He turned to Gerta).
CHARLIE:Gerta! Some champagne please! I'm celebrating! Haha!!!
*Charlie and Sasha's home*
(Itchy, Ashley and Stryker were waiting for Charlie).
ITCHY:Boy... where is Charlie?
ASHLEY:I guess hes still at the cafe...
STRYKER:How long ago?
ASHLEY:2 hours ago... *Laughs*
ITCHY:Very comical, Ashley. Very comical!
*Outside the Flat where Charlie and Sasha lives in*
(Charlie came out of a dark corner.. He was drunk from drinking that
champagne in the cafe. He
feels so happy, like hes one with the world... He begin to sing 'One
Voice'... Thus, lights from
flats were on... One dog called Arthur came out of a window while
across the street, a cat called
Vi popped her head out of the window as well).
AUTHUR:Whats that noise?!
VI:Whats going on?!
AUTHUR:Its Barkin! Hes drunk again!
VI:Why don't you go off home, Charlie? Off to bed!
(Itchy popped his head out of the window as well).
ITCHY:Charlie!!! CHARLIE!!! Come in here!!! QUICKLY!!! Come in here
before something terrible
happens here!!!!
(From another window, another dog that was drunk came out and started
to sing as well... His
name was Mick).
AUTHUR:Hey! Hey! Hey!!! Don't you start as well! Shut up, Mick! Its
making Charlie worse!!!
MICK:Oh yeah?! You wanna make me shut up?! Why don't ya make me shut
up!
AUTHUR:Fine! I will!!!
VI:Oh no.... not again...
ITCHY:I'll call for help!
*Shane's home*
(In the living room, Sasha slept peacefully on a soft sofa... She
groaned as she
heard the phone ringing.... A bedroom door opened and Shane came out,
sleepy.... Shane picked up
the phone and talked in a sleepy voice).
SHANE:(On phone. Clinically asleep) Hello? Yeah... Alright. Bye bye.
(Shane placed the phone down and walked back to the bedroom where Ruby
was sleeping with him. He
stopped in the doorway and flew his eyes open as the message begins to
register).
SHANE:Charlie's signing in the precinct!
(Ruby and Sasha flew THEIR eyes open).
RUBY:What?
SHANE:Charlie's singing in the precinct!
SASHA:I can't hear him!
SHANE:No. That was Itchy on the phone! (Checks clock) Charlie is
singing on the estate! Its 2:15
in the morning and Charlie's singing!
SASHA:Why?
(Shane went back to the phone and picked it up. Ruby came to the
doorway of the bedroom and Sasha
got up from the sofa to listen).
SHANE:I dunno!
RUBY:Well... Has he woken anyone up?
SHANE:(Punching numbers into the phone) Yeah... You, me and Sasha for a
start! (On phone) Itchy?
Why is Charlie singing? Yeah... Mmmmmmm. Right... (To Sasha and Ruby)
No, he doesn't know either.
(Back on phone) You what? You want me to come round? Harmonise him?!
Listen, Itch! If I can't
harmonise Slowbro, I can't harmonise Charlie! He'll finish his song in
a minute.. Don't ya worry.
I'll see ya tomorrow. Bye.
(Places phone down and sighed).
SHANE:I don't believe it....
(He turned around to see Ruby smiling at him... He looked at Sasha, she
was smiling at him as
well... He stared blankly in front and sighed).
SHANE:We better go and see whats wrong!
*Ninetalesuk's home*
(Ninetalesu, Shaina, Vullen, Vult, Growlithe and Noctowl were looking
through some newspapers
about Ninetalesuk and Vullen stopping Team Rocket... But, Ninetalesuk
was not really happy).
NINETALESUK:I don't believe this idiots! They mention ME but, didn't
mention Vullen!
VULLEN:Unfair!
SHAINA:Calm down... Lets keep on looking through the pages... I'm sure
they mention her somewhere
in here.
NOCTOWL:Don't worry. I found her! Listen! (Reads) 'Mr. Fox was aided in
the capture of the evil
Team Rocket members by his younger sister, Vollen'.
(Vullen, angry turned to Vult but, Vult, also angry, turned to
Growlithe. They shouted at the
same time).
VULLEN AND VULT:(Shouting) I TOLD YOU!!! ITS STINKING 'VOLLEN' ON
HERE!!!!!
(Growlith smiled sheepishly while Ninetalesuk, Shaina and Noctowl
laughed their heads off. Then,
the phone rang... Ninetalesuk answered it).
NINETALESUK:Hello?
*Charlie and Sasha's home*
(Shane, Ruby, Ninetalesuk, Shaina, Itchy, Ashley and Stryker were in
the living room. Sasha came
out of the bedroom).
SASHA:Hes asleep... Thank goodness... (Turns to Ninetalesuk) I gotta
thank your sister for taking
after our kids while I'm here...
NINETALESUK:Its fine... Just as long as Vullen don't go for Vult's neck
whilst Vult doesn't go
for Growlithe's neck!
(They all laughed at this joke... Then, they stopped when they saw a
light shone through the
window... Next, Killer came in).
KILLER:Whats happening?
STRYKER:Whats happening?! Theres a riot outside! Thats whats
happening!!!! Why don't ya go and
look outside?
KILLER:You are kidding!!!! I might get hit by a brick! Through that
window!
SASHA:We are 10 stories high, you dipstick!!! What do ya think they
did?! Brought a Machamp with
them that knows a tossing attack?
KILLER:According to that Houndour downstairs, he said they brought the
Rapidashes out...
SHAINA:Yeah? The police has gone to get theirs now.
(Charlie came out the bedroom area).
CHARLIE:Hey! Turn that TV down! I'm trying to sleep!
ASHLEY:Trying to sleep?! Charlie, theres a riot out there!!!!
CHARLIE:What? I wonder what set them off....
RUBY:T'was you, Barkin.
CHARLIE:Me?! How?!
RUBY:You were singing...
CHARLIE:Singing? Oh yeah... I was happy to change into a new dog...
SASHA:Please start, Charlie. Your still the same dog... You started a
riot!
CHARLIE:I wonder what song I sang....
ITCHY:It was 'One Voice Singing in the Darkness'.
NINETALESUK:Yeah. Hark at that now, theres thousands of them now!
CHARLIE:All right, all right... Who could be out there now...
KILLER:Well... Theres Arthur, Vi, Mick... Oh yeah... theres also that
Polirath that you gave that
exploding banana! Hes says hes coming to see ya.
CHARLIE:Really? Erm... I gotta go back to bed.. Come on, Sasha.
(Charlie rushed into the bedroom with Sasha beside her.. Ninetalesuk
smiled and turned to Shaina,
whom was laughing).
NINETALESUK:To tell ya the truth, Shaina... This is one April Fools
trick we are gonna forget!
SHAINA:Yeah! Hahaha!!!
THE END... |
