Featured Roleplay: A.N.T.I.: The Rebellion

[Jillhope]

The sprite gurl heard the words "secret" and "agent" and was instantly talking again (that's if she had ever stopped).
"WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW WOW!!! YOU'RE A SECRET AGENT??? WOW! CAN I BE ONE TOO???!!!" she had dropped her drawing of a cyclops and was now jumping rapidly up and down "PUHLEAZEEEEEEE??? I'LL BE REALLY GOOD!!! AND I'LL TRY NOT TO TALK QUITE SO MUCH!!! I'M SURE YOU NEED A FAIRY ON YOU'RE MISSION, AND I'M THE CRAZY FEERY OF INFINITY AWESOMENESS!!!!! PULEZEZ?"

[Shastafan]

Summer didn't know what to say at the moment. She had never felt so sick to her stomach. Was Whit really now on the MUPPETZ side? She couldn't believe that such an innocent and brave young agent who was willing to risk her lives to save others was now a MUPPETZ agent. This left her stunned and quiet.

She had been even more stunned when Lia had thrown them into prison cells?! She had still been trying to deal with the issue of her HumETZ blood and Whit's possible turn to evil, but this was more than she could take!

As CyKo, Lia (who seemed really confused), and a strange fairy girl bickered left and right and somewhere in the middle, Summer just kept silent. Besides, she didn't feel like she had the energy to say anything worth while.

CLANG! To Summer's shock, something crashed besides her. She realized it was a canteen, and when she unscrewed the lid, she sniffed and smelled... coffee? At first, she wondered if it could come in handy, but rejected the idea because there was too many squirrels to bother. So, no longer caring if it was poison or not, she took a small sip of the coffee.

Even if she had only taken on tiny sip, suddenly, she felt very hyper! Standing up from where she sat, she squealed happily "YA KNOW, I FEEL BETTER ALL OF A SUDDEN. ACTUALLY, I FEEL SPECTACULAR! DO YOU GUYS KNOW I HAVE A SECRET THAT INCLUDES MUPPETZ?! I LOVE THAT PICTURE OF A CYCLOPS, FEERY! LIA, I HOPE YOU'LL FEEL BETTER SOON! YOU SEEM SO CONFOOSLED! I'M SO HAPPY THAT I COULD CRY! WHHEEEE!"

For a moment, she giggled with insanity and hugged the bars. But then the coffee weared off, and when she remembered what she had done, her face burned red, and she barely mumbled, "That is some strong coffee! Want some, guys?"

[Silver the Wanderer]

((OOC: Goodness! Lots of new posts! Bear with me, I'm going to backtrack a tiny bit.))

When the squirrels attacked Echo, hanging onto her arms and legs like bunches of velcro, she struggled, trying to free herself. In desperation, she opened her hand and flipped open her hypnotic pocketwatch (or Hypnowatch). The device lit up, and the two hands of the clock began dragging spirals of color behind them, spinning faster, and faster, and faster...



But before the hypnosis could take effect, one of the squirrels shrieked, "OOHLOOKITSSHINEYIWANTITGIMME!!!" and dove at it, snatching it from Echo's grip. The watch clicked shut as it hit the ground.

She gulped. Oh no! She tried to retrieve, but the squirrels held onto her fast. She quickly lost track of it amidst their furry bodies. Now defenseless, she seized up in fear (like she knew the real Agent Thorn probably wouldn't do in this situation) and allowed herself to be carried away.

I could transform, she thought to herself. I could blow my cover right now. If she took on her MUPPETZ form, at least they might respect her. But what had her father said about the squirrel mercenaries' questionable loyalty as of late? No, turning into a MUPPETZ was too risky. And she doubted the only other form she had mastered would be able to run faster than these tiny rodents of destruction.

Having decided to remain as she was for the time being, she grunted when she was thrown inside the hollow tree with the other ANTI agents. Glaring at the squirrels outside, she at last spotted the one with her Hypnowatch. It was gnawing at the gold finish, apparently trying to eat it.

Echo fumed. That Hypnowatch was one of the only possessions she really cared about! Her father had given it to her as a gift for her most recent birthday. She wasn't about to let some flea-bitten squirrel get its saliva all over it. Pointing, she shouted, "Hey, give that back!"

The squirrel looked at her with a mixture of surprise and resentment on its face. Then, to her vast surprise, it scurried over and deposited the Hypnowatch through the bars of the gate. "Sosorryfuzzyhereyougofuzzy," it mumbled, then raced away.

Echo looked down at the watch, seeing her reflection in its smooth, slightly-wet surface. What did it just call me? she thought. It knows I'm a humETZ! But how?

Her attention was stolen when she realized that someone else had entered the room - two others, actually. One was a fairy, who was babbling loudly about something. The second was now talking with CyKo. Apparently her name was Lia, and judging by the looks of everyone around her, this was someone with whom the ANTI agents were well acquainted. Echo tried to put on an expression of recognition and mild surprise.

But she closed her Hypnowatch in her fist, ready to snap it open if these squirrels decided to show their aggressive side again.

[Narnia_Fan12]

CyKo had a crazy sprite gurl on one side of his face and a forgetful Lia in the other. To Lia, he said: "Oh, there was a bus on our mission! Agent Thorn was abducted by Oskar Groucheou, or however you pronounce his name- and we chased after him. Here, read my mission log! It shows every single occurrance since we first left the ANTI M-BOO."

CyKo handed Lia a tablet computer that displayed via video clips the adventures they had been a part of.

Turning to the sprite gurl, however, he said: "Well... Um... If you can learn to tone down your incessant screams of joy. You can guard the gate if you'd like! But its a horribly hard job, I doubt you could handle it..."

Then Chunky jumped into CyKo's face. "DOYOUDOUBTOURGUARDINGCAPABILITIES!? WehavethebestguardsinalltheCaffeiNation."

"No," CyKo replied in a whisper, "We need something to keep her busy with. "

[Melian_Maia]

Lia watched the video in confusion. That was her alright. She watched them board the submarine and then the explosions that sent her flying into the wall of the sub. That must have been when she had gotten the amnesia... The next video was of Cyko and the others being taken captive by the Squirrels. Finally, there was a budge in her memories. She was remembering some smaller details.

She looked up as the fairy gurl asked about the secret agents. "Do you have a name?" she asked. "Oh, and your dress is gorgeous."

Then she stood up, handing the tablet computer back to Cyko. "Agent Thorn... Is she still missing?"

There was only one thing left to do. She called for Chatter and told him that the prisoners were not prisoners, but her friends and that they needed to be released. That they were fighting the MUPPETZ too.

[Narnia_Fan12]

No," CyKo started, "We found her onboard the S.S. M.U.P.P.E.T.Z. She's over there."

CyKo pointed to Silver!Thorn.

"Most of us are here... I think. It hard keeping track of everyone. I tried to do a role call, but it didn't quite work out. And now we're here. Do you think we could get us out of these cells?"

Chunky glared nukes at CyKo.

"Idon'tTrustanyoneWithonlyoneeye. Theyarenottobetrusted."

CyKo looked to the colony of squirrels that were playing with kitchen cutlery. One of the squirrels accidentally popped out his eye, laughing the whole time.

"HEISNOTTOBETRUSTED!!!!! TAKEHIMAWAY." Chunky screamed above the ruckus.

The squirrel looked at himself in horror.

"TAKEMEAWAY!TAKEMEAWAY! IamNOTTOBETRUSTED! Idon'teventrustmyself!"

CyKo gulped. "There's no way they'll let me out."

Looking at Summer, CyKo say drips of coffee emerging from her cup, dropping onto the floor of the cell, with squirrels licking the floor. "Gross. ... but... I want some " CyKo walked over to Summer and took some of the coffee, dumping it into a thermal cup that he kept in his right-top pocket of his awesome tux (though it was battered and bruised now). "I'll save this for when I need it most."

[Melian_Maia]

Lia glared at her rodent followers. "Cyko is my friend. My friend!!" She glared some more, but found it rather difficult as she was trying not to laugh. "Hey, Summer, I think I'll take some of that coffee now..." She drank about half of the canteen, then readdressed her Squirrel followers. "Cykoismyfriend. Hecanbetrusted. Hemustbereleased."

She smiled at Chunky, who grudgingly backed away from the 'prisoners'. "AndChunkydear,youaretobetrusted. Yougotthegoldenacorn."

She walked out of the tree trunk holding cell, followed by the Squirrels and the now released prisoners. "Whew, I was beginning to think that I was going to talk like that forever..."

[Silver the Wanderer]

Echo nodded politely when CyKo pointed her out. She smiled and said, in her very best Thorn-imitation-voice, "It's good to see you again, Agent Lia. Thank you for, um, coming to rescue me."

She noticed the squirrel who had stolen her Hypnowatch eyeballing her incredulously. Hoping it really couldn't see through her ruse, she shifted uncomfortably and flexed her hand around the Hypnowatch.

Luckily, it seemed Lia's memory really was coming back. Though, how on earth she was able to get all these squirrels to obey her, Echo hadn't the faintest idea. But as they all walked free of their tree-prison, she wasn't about to complain. She pocketed her Hypnowatch and started to make a remark about how hungry she was, but at that very moment, she felt something grab onto her leg.

Echo stifled a shriek as the squirrel from before scrambled up her body to perch on her shoulder. "Whatareyoudoinghere,fuzzy?" it whispered into her ear.

She strayed a couple steps behind the others to make sure they wouldn't be able to hear, then she shushed the squirrel pointedly. "Not now!" she hissed.

"Tellme! Tellme!" To her alarm, the squirrel's voice was rising.

"Shhhh! Okay, okay, I'll tell you. Just, not in front of the others. I'll tell you everything later, I promise!"

The squirrel chattered in resignation, but it still remained on her shoulder.

[Shastafan]

Summer still couldn't believe she had honest-to-goodness admitted she had a secret that involved MUPPETZ! Hopefully, no one had taken that piece of info seriously!

Some squirrels were still scanning her over. "Icantellshehassomeoftheirblood," one of them whispered to another, "Butsheisalsorelatedtoanormalhumanbeing! IdonotthinkIhaveeverseenorheardofthisagentbefore! Whatdowedowithher,telltheleaders?"

Summer turned away, and wished her HIS wasn't empty so that she could stun the squirrels and make them forget about her. She naturally rubbed her opal necklace, and wondered what would happen if she ever took it off. What would her agent pals think of her if such a thing ever happened?

At least Lia now remembered them. She was escorting them thankfully out of the wretched prison, and the place in fact didn't appear to be so dark and unwelcoming. Squirrels were all over the place, usually either holding a nut or something that likely held coffee. One squirrel was angrily barking at some others, "YOUFOOLS!THISISN'TCOFFEE,IT'STEA!YOUKNOWWESQUIRRELSDISLIKETEA!"

Over on a tree, Summer spotted something that made her heart skip a beat. There was a fancy piece of fabric hanging in the air, with gorgeous patterns and designs. One of the patterns, in paticular, showed a short, golden haired girl with oddly cherry blossom-colored eyes. My goodness, it looks like Spring! Memories of her dear friend filled her, and she sadly sighed. After the accident, she and Spring has lost contact purposely. If only she hadn't been so foolish that day... She turned away instantly, hoping that it was just a figment of her imagination.

One of the squirrels (she was pretty sure it was Chunky) hollered, "Beholdofthecenterofourcamp!"

[Narnia_Fan12]

The center of the camp was covered in what looked like slime molds.

In the middle of these molds was a pattern that spelt "LIA".

Now I get it. The squirrels see these molds as a sign that Lia is their "Queen". CyKo snickered a bit, trying to remain respectful to the hyper squirrels.

"BEHOLDTHEAMAZINGPROPHETICWHITESLIMEYSTUFF!" All of the squirrels silenced themselves, followed by chants of: "Longlivethequeen!Longlivethequeen!LonglivequeenLIA!"

CyKo looked at Summer, who appeared worried. "What's wrong?" he asked quickly, as squirrels swarmed around Lia (passing between his legs to get to her). "OOBA!OOBA!OOBA!" again chanted the squirrels, who were bowing to their newfound queen.

From a corner of the center of the colony was a group of some 5 or 6 squirrels, who glared at both CyKo and his friends. He heard them grumbling something about tea. Hyperactive tea. And how they disliked it.

[Melian_Maia]

Lia did not know wither to feel pleased about the fact that her name was written in slime mold or, well, not to feel pleased about it. She heard Cyko snickering about it behind her back and elbowed him in the ribs.

She was pleased that the other agents liked the Squirrels so much. Especially Chunky. She had to stifle a giggle when she saw Agent Thorn with a squirrel perched on her shoulder.

Her memory was finally coming back. There were still some fuzzy parts about her that she wondered if she had ever known. But at least she could remember about the MUPPETZ and ANTI, thanks to Cyko.

But now she was worried about other things. The squirrels were hopping up and down, giving her tight little hugs with their tiny paws. Chatter was on the top of her head and had grabbed two very tight handfuls of her hair. "SpeechLia, speech. Giveusaspeech!!!" He was so excited that he gave several yanks on her hair before tumbling off her head into the crowd of squirrels.

Lia was frightened. She did not like public speaking, but she knew that now that she was the Queen of the Squirrels, it would be necessary. She glanced back at the other agents. "Um, hi?" She started her speech. "I'm very glad to be your Queen. Uh, yeah. Very glad." She yawned. The coffee, er, tea, must have been wearing off quickly. "So... tired..." And then she collapsed on top of the squirrels, sound asleep.

[Jillhope]

"REALLY??? I CAN BE AN AGENT???!!!" she then remembered to quiet down and started to talk like a slightly loud normal person (which for her was whispering) "You know, I think I'm really gonna like this!" The qiet spell was broken when Lia asked her her name and complimented her dress "ARE YOU KIDDIN'???" she asked incredulously "FAIRIES DON'T HAVE NAMES!!! BUT THE LAME PEOPLE WHO DON'T BELIEVE ME WHEN I TELL THEM THAT I'M A FAIRY CALL ME HOPE!" she basked for a moment in the thought of her dress being like "YOU LIKE IT????? I CAN MAKE YOU ONE JUST THE SAME IF YOU LIKE!!!!!!!" she pulled out some colourful fabric from her never ending pocket, along with a pair of scissors, thread, and a needle and started formulating an exact replica of her dress.

[Chloë Máiréad]

Agent Clo Verrz let out a deep sigh as she felt the cucumber making a slow descent down her face. She reached up and picked it up with her recently manicured fingers. She opened one blue eye and looked around. Her spa day had been marvelous, but she knew she had to stop fooling around and get back to work.

Removing both cucumbers, she shoved them into her mouth, chewed and sat up. Her slippered feet were silent as she made her way to the bathroom to wash her face mask off.

[Bother Eustace]

Agent Boe watched incredulously through the whole ordeal at the hyper squirrels' camp. He didn't trust the little rodents. As a general rule, he didn't trust anything with buck teeth, and as a secondary general rule, he didn't trust anything with a fluffy tail. Those things put together make for a doubly untrustworthy combination; and the only time he'd ever encountered such a combination before was Aunt Edith at the family reunion, though he didn't believe she was really his aunt.

He stood at the gathering at the center of the camp, surveying the slimey LIA display, arms crossed. "I don't know, CyKo, I don't trust these things. They still haven't returned my SPE--Uh, Emotigun."

Just then, a trio of squirrels came running up to him, carrying his Formerly-SPELR-Turned-Emotigun. "HEREITISHEREITISWEBRINGITBACKNOWDOCTORSQUIRRELFACEFIXEDIT!!!!"Boe looked confusedly at the one they called Doctor Squirrelface: a crazy-haired lab coat-clad insane looking little squirrel. Actually, he looked alot like a squirrely version of Evil Doctor Joe Weirdsworth III, with more fur and less height.

"Oh... thank you, Dr. Squirrelface! I don't know what to say," Boe said with a grin. As a general rule, he automatically trusted anyone who voluntarily repaired his weapon, furry tail or otherwise. Boe aimed the SPELR out away from the gathering and fired to test it out. However, it didn't shoot Silly Putty. Instead, there was a grinding noise, then a hissing sound, and a gurgle, followed by some bubbling. Finally, there was a ding, and Dr. Squirrelface eagerly held an empty coffee mug up to the end of the barrel, out of which a stream of hot cappuccino poured forth into the mug.

"WHAT???" Boe yelled indignantly, "This isn't fixed!! You've turned it into a coffee maker!! It's against ANTI regulations to convert a weapon into a heated beverage appliance!!"

"NONONOTJUSTCOFFEECARAMELMACHIATTO!!!YUMYUMVERYGOODVERYGOOD!" Dr. Squirrelface said excitedly, and gulped the Caramel Macchiato in one single - well, gulp.

"Caramel Macchiato, you say?" Boe repeated, intrigued. He licked his lips, suddenly very desirous to try it. "Well, it would be a shame to let the stuff go to waste..."

[georgiefan1]

Whit begins to walk to find Dori when her P.H.O.N.E (Platonic Hearing Over Neverending Earth) rang. She checks her caller ID, why was Fall calling her?

"Hi Fall!!....hello, hello?....HELLO!"
"Stupid prank callers" Whit mutteres to herself. She continued to walk to find Dori. Whit felt very official when everyone had to stand in attention while she walked by. It felt so cool.

She goes to Dori's room when she sees the door cracked slightly. Dori was already talking to someone. Whit (being a preteen) has the huggest urge to stay and ease drop. She did.

"Yes, its amazing and Whit really has no clue" The random person said. Whit?! She listened in closer.

"Yep! No clue! I was able to completely turn her away from ANTI- I love brain washing! Give the girl a little love and some pink- and she's practicially your slave." They cackle together.

Whit gasps from the information she just recieved but keeps listening. So THIS was the reason she kept feeling odd feelings everytime She saw anything ANTI related- she sub conscience was telling her she belonged with them!

"She wrote them a stupid letter letter telling them not to mess with the MUPPETZ- so now they know we took her! It was amazing!"
Whit's blood was absolutely boiling- she felt so stupid! She knew what she was going to to do

Whit was now a secret double agent. She just needed now a way to tell ANTI she was on their side- or should she tell them?

[Shastafan]

Fall felt uneasy. Sure, he's an agent commited to doing evil, but should he be mean to his fellow comrades? Nervously, he mumbled, which made it a bit hard to hear his words, "Um, yeah, hi, Whit. Sorry, I punched in the wrong number. Well, I was trying to call Ellemo, but, you see, I got you. Heh heh... Er, if you need anything, let me know. Uh, bye!" Relief flooded the chief agent as he turned the phone off. I am NOT doing that again...

Regaining his pride, he tried to call Ellemo again. When the busy signal beeped once more, he knew that was the last straw. "I can't keep doing this anymore!" He hissed through clenched teeth. With that being said, he dialed a number, but this time it wasn't Ellemo's. "Hello. MUPPETZ Chief Agent Fall here. Who is this? I have some news."

"Oh, finally! I'm Agent Buggie, and I've been waiting for you to call since the MUPPETZ ship disaster! Your plans are often the best out of mostly everyone..."

Fall hesitated. The last time he had called the MUPPETZA7, there had been another receptionist. What had his name been, Winner? Wiener? Curious to the agent's absense, he replied, "Thank you. Before I tell you the plan, I want to know what happened to the receptionist before you."

"Oh, him? Strangely enough, all I know is that he got in trouble for something and got sent to the general. After that, no one has any idea what his fate is. So, with that aside, what's the deal? I'm all ears!"

A smug smile quickly formed on his face, and his brown eyes flicked with fury and fire. "Have you ever heard about MUPPETZYLVANIA?" He viciously explained. "It's the fine home of some of the mightiest MUPPETZ, squirrels, but do you know that the MUPPETZ CHARMERZ? I think we need to pay them a long-awaited visit. And from what I heard, the no-good happy-dappy ANTI team is there, too! Whether we find the CHARMERZ or not, we will not miss good old revenge!"
