Everlong's Ice-Cream Disasters! (8D)

Callie couldn't help breaking out into laughter at the way 8D took the story and explained the captain. She'd almost fall off of her chair as he kept making it more and more funny, especially when he starting taking jabs at Jay, she couldn't keep a straight face and took a while to get back her composition to get into character when it was her turn to continue the story again. "Hehehe, sorry, sorry. That was just the best 8D! Why can I never think of anything that funny, hehe. Okay, okay. I got this! Let the story continue!"


"I sure am Royal Court Jester!" The Fox Princess would call back excitedly. Finally, she'd be able to try out her uber, mega, super, duper, magic, awesome, cool, brilliant, amazing, other words to describe super cool things, kitty blaster that she had been dying to try out for such a long time now! She wanted to save it for something super special instead of ruining its awesomality on something small and underwhelming. "You were referring to this, weren't you Jester?" She'd question with a huge smirk on her face as she pulled the uber, mega, super-...okay fine I'll just call it Kitty Blaster for short- as she pulled out the Kitty Blaster from her backpack and began to start powering it up, aiming directly at the ankle panted-pfffft hehehe- captain.

"Hold off the Candy Captains candy thugs whilst I charge up the Kitty Blaster! It's super duper powerful so its gotta charge up!" The Fox Princess would instruct the Royal Jester, she knew he was powerful and cool enough to take out hundreds of these thugs alone! It was only the captain that posed them a real threat! "You have your weapon on you, don't you Royal Jester? Show them what you're made of!" With that the adorable Fox Princess would put her full focus on making sure the Kitty Blaster was kept firmly aimed at the Candy Captain so that the lock on would trigger. Yet it still needed more time to charge and the gummy bear parachuters were already dropping down on them from above whilst the candy thugs attacked from the front! It was up to the Royal Court Jester now to keep them out of trouble until the Kitty Blaster was ready to fire!

As the Royal Jester took care of the las-pfft... S-sorry, I can't stop laughing about the trash thing, hehe- as he took care of the last of the gumdrop pirates, it was only the three of them left on deck! The adorable Fox Princess, The Handsome Royal Court Jester and the pantsless-pffft-Candy Captain! "It's two against one know Capin' you best surrender or I'll fire off the UMSDMACBAOWTDSCTKD!" (Callie would legitimately try to pronounce that as a word to a quite an obvious and utmost failure.) The sweet yet sour pirate captain wouldn't dare quiver in his wee booties! He was a man of great pride even when his pink underwear was on show! "Avast ya troublin' kids! I will beat ya both back wit' ma hands behin' me back if I hav' ta!"

With confidence in his step, the jelly bellied smelly welly wearing captain would awkwardly shuffle his way towards the pair of heroes at alarming speed for someone who's ankles were so wrapped up in clothing! "Royal Jester! The Kitty Blaster is almost at full charge! We only need one more conveniently timed event to occur before it'll be ready to fire! I'm sure you'll know what to do!" The Fox Princess would but only need a little longer, yet the Candy Captain was almost upon them already! Could this be the end for our brave adventuring heroes? Or would the Court Jester have a final trick up his sleeve?

The air ship was coming down! With the captain and his crew gone there was nothing the Princess or the Jester could do to stop the ship before it crashed into the Castle of the Kitty Prince! All was lost!-Ehehe-... Unless. Yes that was it! The one chance that the dynamic duo had to save the kingdom, themselves, and all the little forest critters all at once! "Princess!" The Jester called with a wide grin and snickering laugh "I have a plan!"


8D smiled and pulled Callie's covers up the rest of the way and planted a small kiss on her forehead "But you'll have to find out that plan tomorrow night! Ehehehe! Because now it's well past your bed time and we have a busy day ahead of us tomorrow. Like three new side missions got posted, can ya believe that? Ehehehe!" The bright lights from the street lamps filtered through Callie's open window, illuminating the mostly dark room. It was well past Callie's bed time,and 8D knew that Callie would fuss unless she got a story, she always did. Then again, that was half the fun. He would always start it, but she would tell him he was doing it wrong and start it herself. Then they'd go back and forth telling the story. Some nights, like tonight, J and Kay would sit by the door and listen as 8D and Callie told their little stories, sometimes chiming in as the Royal Scientist or the Captain of the Royal Guard. It was nights like these that made their weird family feel... Normal.

"Awwwwwwww! Come ooonnnn!" Callie would protest as 8D pulled her covers up. "You can't just leave me with that! That's just mean! Now I'm gonna be restless all night trying to think what the Royal Jester has in mind to save the day!" The girl would pout in the way she knew got 8D to feel sorry for her. It was getting really late at this point and it was true that she was tired... She'd been so super busy recently! She'd had such a busy day today after all the excitement of the night before too. Yet she was sure it was worth it to stay up just a little longer to find out how Everlong was going to be saved! She'd sigh lightly knowing that slowly transformed into a yawn. She knew that 8D wouldn't tell anymore of the story now he said it was bed time... It made her a little disappointed, yet they'd had lots of fun with the story tonight! It was one of their best ones yet! And at least now she got to look forward to the ending another night!

"You guys are weird. You know that right? Nehehe." Terra would say from his curled up position on the bed besides Callie. He'd been lying there listening to the story alongside the others, mostly trying to get to sleep but still passively listening to everything that had been going on. As bizarre as he thought the story they made up had been, he'd enjoyed seeing the oddball of a family actually do something like a family for once instead of the insanity that usually went on in this place.

"8D..." Callie would say after a moment with a suddenly sheepish tone. "I uhm..." She'd begin, not really knowing how to express what she wanted to ask properly. There was another reason aside from just making up stories that the girl had wanted to stay up later and still didn't want to go to sleep now. "D-do you know how to not have nightmares...?"
