The loonatics were all sitting around the hologram table as Zadavia told them ''Loonatics, Dr.dare has somehow managed to break free and is now randomly turning people to stone in the grand acmetropolis shopping center. You must stop him at all costs. Zadavia out.''
Ace, as always, exclaimed ''Lets jet!'' To the rest of the loonatics. The loonatics all jetted down to the acmetropolis shopping center to hunt for Dr.dare.
When they landed at the main entrance slam growled something incomprehensible. Ace replied ''Yeah, slams right dis place is way too big to find Dr.nutjob in a hoiry.''
Lexi stepped up to the automated door, it opened, and Lexi pointed at the fossilized shoppers as she said ''Uhh, guys? How bout we just follow the trail?'' All the other Loonatics just looked at eachother and shrugged as they started following Lexi down the path of eerie stone shoppers.
''Yrgh! And I thought a trip to the musuem was bad!'' Duck exclaimed as he passed more fossilized shoppers, froozen in poses of terror and fear.
The trail continued into large grocery store and stopped. Everyone stopped up at the last froozen shopper and looked around. Ace brook the silence ''Yo' know, if he's so smart, bein a doc' an all... why did he make it so easy for us to foll'' Ace was cut off by one of Dr.dares beams missing a dodging Lexi.
''Does that answer your question?'' Lexi said as she stood up again.
''Careful loonatics, we're out in the open with a sniper.'' Ace warned
Dr.dare suddenly stood about 15 meters down an isle away from the the loonatics.
''Oh, I'd hardly call myself anykind of soldier. But these may qualify!'' Dr.dare said as he summoned 3 rock monsters infront of him that immediately charged at the loonatics.
''UGH, NOT AGAIN!'' Lexi grunted as she started brain blasting the closest rock monster. Dr.dare beamed away at the loonatics while their hands were tired with the rock monsters.
Ace jumped in the air, pulled out his sword, and yelled ''Gaurdian strike sword, attack!'' And sliced two of the rock monsters cleanly from their shoulders to their wastes, by jumping off one and onto the other.
Ace ran towards the third and final one, while dodging the beams fired by Dr.dare. Suddenly one of the missing beams hit a mirror on one of the shelfs in another isle, and ricocheted back at Tech.
Tech quickly lepped in a random direction and landed on the ground only to be picked up by one of the rock monsters.
Ace, now in mid air with sword ready, noticed Tech was now a hostage of the rock monster and sliced off the monsters arm to free Tech. Tech landed hardly on the floor with the severed rock arm now on top of him. Dr.dare noticed this opportunity and fired a beam straight and the pinned down Tech.
Tech couldnt do anything but close his eyes. Then a second went by, and nothing had happened. He opened his eyes to the grimmest sight he had ever had to open his eyes to... Rev fossilized infront of him with his arms spread out and his head turned back at him, as if he was looking back at him the last moments, when he was shielding him.
''Rev!!! Nooooooooo!!!''
Well thats the start of Love letters 2, as like before, feel free to point out gramatical errors and give constructive criticism. In-fact, please give me constructive-criticism.
Err, the thing is, I'm not really good at being an English teacher.
Um, I hope you don't mind, but I just sorta rewrote the whole thing and italicized the fixed parts. It's the only way I know how to point out things like this thoroughly.
The Loonatics were all sitting around the hologram table as Zadavia spoke.
''Loonatics, Dr. Dare has somehow managed to break free and is now randomly turning people to stone in the Grand Acmetropolis shopping center. You must stop him at all costs. Zadavia out.''

Lexi stepped up to the automated door, opening it, and proceeded to point at the fossilized shoppers.
''Uhh, guys? How bout we just follow the trail?'' she asked. All the other Loonatics just looked at each other and shrugged as they started to follow Lexi down the path of eerie stone shoppers.
''Yrgh! And I thought a trip to the museum was bad!'' Duck exclaimed as he past more fossilized shoppers, frozen in poses of terror and fear.
The trail continued into large grocery store and stopped. Everyone stepped up at the last frozen shopper and looked around. Ace broke the silence. ''Yo' know, if he's so smart, bein a doc' an all... why did he make it so easy foir us to follow im?"[
Hopefully that helps somewhat. Also remember proper capitalization. While commas are a bit of an issue, I think the thing you should pay most attention to is the way you implement quotations.
Thanks, I wouldnt normally make some of the mistakes there, but you just dont notice those when typing sometimes I guess. I read something about that writers cant find their own mistakes because theres something about that they already know what its supposed to say, so that their minds dont reconize errors or something. Which is why professional writers always have people to check it for them.
Tech woke up dripping in sweat and started panting. He thought he had lost Rev, he was still in a state of shock.
Tech put his hand to his forehead as his breathing started to relax. ''It was just a nightmare, it was just a nightmare...'' he thought to himself. Tech just had to see Rev alive and breathing now, he couldnt shake the feeling of loss.
Tech got out of bed and shuttered for a second at the feeling of the ice-cold floor hitting his bare paws. He scurried down the hallway and into Rev's room to find his avian-lover sound asleep. Tech let out a breath of relief. Tech went over to Rev's bed and kneeled down so their heads were level. He put his hand on Rev's cheek and gave him a quick peck on the beak. Just as he pulled his head away, he heard the last voice in the world he wanted to hear now.
''What the hell are you doing?!'' Duck shouted in awe, with wide eyes, while he stood in the door frame.
Tech was perilized. What could he do? What could he say? ''Uhh... its not what it'' Techs stuttering was cut off.
''Oh please! You are so busted for being a perv! And a fruit!'' Duck lashed at Tech while he marched over to him.
Tech stood up and looked down at the signifigantly shorter mallard. ''Im bi for your info! And dont you call me fruit, You little immature narcissist!'' Tech growled at Duck with clenched teeth and fists.
As Tech and Duck looked as though they were about to kill eachother, the other Loonatics came storming in the room.
''What in the name of Acmetropolis is going on in here?!'' Ace demanded to know. Rev started to crack his eyes open from all the screaming. Duck walked over to Ace, stood beside him with crossed arms, and said in his most evil tone ''I caught dogbreath here giving Rev a good-night kiss.''
As the other loonatics glared at Tech with wide eyes, Rev sat up in his bed and looked at Tech.
Tech, who was now drenched with sweat, took a couple steps back. Rev had heard what Duck just said and figured it out for himself. As much as he found it sweet Tech had snuck into his room to give him a kiss, his cheeks were going red at the knowledge that he'd have to give up their secret now to bail out Tech.
''Guys?'' All eyes were on Rev now. Rev gulped before continueing as Tech nodded at him, urging him to continue. Rev put his head down ''Me and Tech... are a... sorta...'' Rev was cut-off by an amazed Lexi ''Boy-friends?!''
Both Tech and Rev nodded with lowered heads. Duck covered his mouth and ran out into the bath-room, which was completely unnoticed by the other loonatics, because they were all still staring at Tech and Rev with open mouths.
''Uhh...'' Ace started scratching the back of his head. This was really uncomfortable.
''Its 3:17 AM, lets leave this for tommorow guys. *Yawn* Its not like they're going anywhere.'' Lexi said in a tired voice.
''Exactly Lexi!'' Ace said and faked a yawn. Slam nodded and faked a yawn as well. They all scurried out of the room to go back to their own beds.
Tech and Rev looked at eachother. Tech sighed ''Well, no reason for me not to sleep in here now anymore.''
Rev cracked a small smile and scooted over to the back of the bed to give Tech space. Tech got into the bed and pulled the blanket over them as Rev put his arm around him. They were both laying on their side, facing the same direction. Rev laid his head ontop Techs and scooted abit closer in.
I am a relationships-conflict whore, so of course I'm liking this chapter. The "omg you've been found out" chapters are always interesting in any situation.
However, I am definitely suspecting there was something big left out because the end of the first chapter and the beginning of this one don't match up. I am now tempted to ask permission for access to the naughty forums (something I NEVER thought I'd do btw) to see what is up.
Nope, you didnt miss a thing. Chapter 1 was a nightmare Tech had. I actuelly worried people may catch onto that. Glad you liked the chapter, thats kinda my goal.
As tech was starting to dooz off, Rev's whisper made him peel his eyes open again. ''Tech, why did you come in here?''
Tech fealt extremely uncomfortable at this question, he didnt want to tell Rev he dreamed about his death. He pondered about what he could say to Rev, but could think of nothing.
''Tech?''
''I... just had a nightmare.''
''I died, didnt I?''
Tech let out an agreeing sigh. Rev knew it.
''Its ok Tech. I promise I wont die. No matter what.'' Rev assured Tech as he squeezed his hand and gave him a peck on the cheek. Tech shut his eyes again
The next morning Tech and Rev woke up to, what would probably be one of the most uncomfortable mornings of their lives. Tech and Rev walked into the large compound room of the HQ. The rest of the Loonatics stared, as they neared the table were they were sitting.
As Tech and Rev sat down at the breakfast table in their pjs, like the rest of the Tics', Ace cleared his throat.
''Well I'd like to start out by sayin, there is'nt anything wrong with what you've done.'' Before Ace could continue he was swiftly cut off by Duck.
''No, but there is something extremely creepy!''
''Duck! Shut up!'' Lexi hissed at him.
''Pfft.'' Duck turned his head away.
''Ugh, seeing as we are professionals after all, and this is the year 2772, I dont think it would be fair for us to question you about personal stuff like this.'' Ace said as he looked around to see the other tics' except Duck, nodding agreeingly.
''I never though I'd hear him be so professional, probably because he wouldnt want us asking about him and Lexi either.'' Tech thought inside himself.
After a while the Loonatics continued to eat their breakfast and chat as if nothing had happened, except for Duck.
''Damn fruits, its disgusting, its despicable! Another couple in the team... thats just great! Now what about me?!'' Duck was almost boiling as he struggled to keep his thoughts inside.
Tech and Rev had finished their breakfast and got up to get ready at the same time. As Tech and Rev were starting to leave the table, Rev paused.
''Thanks for being so understanding guys.''
''Dont mention it Rev.'' Ace said smiling.
Tech and Rev walked down the hall with their hands around eachothers waists.
Lexi let out a ''Awww'' Even Ace and Slam cracked a smile at the sight. Duck on the other hand could feel his breakfast on its way up again and looked away.
''Thats not cute you stupid yaoi fan-girl! I almost lost my breakfast!'' Duck yelled at the top of his lungs in Lexi's face, when Tech and Rev were out of sight. For once, Lexi actuelly looked at Duck with fear in her eyes, as he leaned over her, drewling with rage.
''Duck, I think you should go to your room and cool off, before I make you!'' Ace said through clenched teeth.
Duck kept leaning over Lexi for a second, glaring at Ace with mad eyes, before stomping off to his room while swearing under his breath.
Well, Is anyone actuelly surprised I made Duck the phobe?
Duck was just sitting there on his bed, he had been sitting there, quietly ever since Ace sent him to his room. He could still remember that day...
''Hey Duck! Wait up!'' Shouted barry badger to a ten year old Duck. Barry badger was 14 year old male badger anthro, who was ducks best friend at school, despite the age diffrence.
''Hey, did you watch the basherball game yesterday?'' Duck asked as they strolled down the side-walk on their way to school.
''No I was doing home-work. Its like that when your in 9th grade''
''That sounds boring, I wish I could stay in 5th grade.'' Duck expressed his loathe for any kind of schoo-related labor.
''Then youll never learn anything new, now will you?'' Barry pointed out to Duck.
Barry was quite mature and open-minded for a 14-year-old. None of the others who went in his class would talk to a 5th grader like Duck.
As they reached a corner of one of acmetropolises massive futuristic apartment blocks, a voice shouted at Barry. ''Barry, wait up for me!''
A human came running, he was another 9th grader. Duck knew him, his name was reynald. He was the only one who seemed to ever talk to Barry, besides Duck.
''Thanks for stopping for me, guys.'' Thanked a panting reynald. The three continued on to school,chit-chatting along the way. They went their seperate ways once inside the school.
''See you after school Duck!'' Said Barry as he continued down a hall, whilst Duck went into his classroom.
''Late again, I see...'' Said the voice of his old math teacher, Mr. birkins.
''But...'' Duck was about to protest.
''NO BUTS!!! How many times have I told you, young man?! NOW SIT DOWN, this instant!'' Mr. birkins yelled stading up, with a head as red as a tomato. Duck quickly scurried down to his seat as to avoid any further confrontation.
''Now class, has everyone done pages 28 to 32 in 5th grade algebra?'' Duck was about to faint, he had forgotten all about this. He had to get away from Mr.birkins somehow.
''Mr.birkins, may I go to the bathroom?'' Duck said with a raised hand.
''The idea is to raise you hand first you STUPID boy. I know you havent done your algebra homework, its the same everytime with you. Go drown yourself in the toilet for all I care!'' Said the sadistic Mr.birkins. Duck ran down to the bathroom with tears in his eyes.
He sat there in one of the stalls, thinking how he could get away from Mr.birkins scolding, which he was sure to get apon his return. As he was thinking somewhere along the lines of faking a horrible disease, he was disturbed by some rustling from the other stall.
Out of his burning curiosity, he stood up on the toilet tank to peak over, and was shocked at what he saw. Barry and Reynald, locked in a powerful kiss, violently running their fingers threw eachothers hair. Time stood still for the terrified Duck. He couldnt understand what he was seeing.
''Boys dont do that, what would make them do that?!? Why are they doing that?!?'' Duck thoughts were flying through his head as his heart raced and his vision became blurry. He slipped off the toilet, fell, and hit his head on the toilet bowl. Knocking him unconscious.
Barry and Reynald hurt the loud thumb and immediately climbed over on the toilet and into the stall Duck was in. They kneeled down and turned Duck over on his back.
''Duck! Are you ok?'' Barry said as he shook Duck awake. Duck let out a quick shout as he saw the two kneeling over him. Just the sight of them made Duck scared now, it was so gross, they had just... he didnt want to relive it. He stood up despite having a moderately sized gash on the side of his head, opened the door as quickly as he could, and ran away from the two.
''Do you think he saw us?'' Reynald asked Barry with a puzzled look.
''No, Im sure he was standing on the toilet to change a light-bulb.'' Barry said sarcastically in a mean tone.
''Hey, it was your stupid idea!'' Reynald protested.
''Oh, yeah you thought it was real stupid didnt you... I could feel that boner three miles away.'' Barry said in the same sarcastic mean tone.
Barry sighed ''Do you think he'll tell?''
Reynald said ''Well... its 2761, does it matter?'' He said in a slightly optimistic tone.
Barry replied in an angry tone ''You think the basherball jockies care what year it is?!''
Duck had fainted in the hallway, and was taken out of school by an ambulance at recess time. Together with many others, Barry and Reynald watched as Duck was loaded into the back, and the ambulance hoovered away.
The next day at school a Duck with a head in bandages walked in the door, for once on time.
''My, my... what have we here? Duck? On time? Well... maybe you should smack your head into a toilet bowl more often, might help you with your algebra.'' Mr.Birkins said evily in his normal sadistic tone. The reason Duck was on time for once, was that he didnt wait up for either Barry or Reynald on his way to school. He just ran from them, like mad.
Duck sat down on his seat. The class stared abit at his bandages before quickly looking back at Mr.Birkins. Duck hadnt got over what he had seen the other day. He wanted to hurt them some how, humiliate them. He began to lay his plan, he knew just what he wanted to do.
''So, I've been merciful enough to not asign any homework for today, but I promise you you'll make up for it today!''
The faces of the pupils drooped at these words.
''You know how we usually do two pages everyday in ''Mathmatics of 2754''?''
Mr.Birkins asked the pupils. The pupils nodded their heads. A smile stretched across Mr.Birkins face, the kind that made all the pupils frown.
''Well, we're not going to do two pages today!'' As Mr.Birkin announced, this cheers sounded around the classroom, but were suddenly interupted.
''We're going to do five pages! So everyone open your books, pages 47-52.''
The miserable math class went its course. Yet it didnt really matter to Duck. His mind was somewhere completely else. At the end of class, as Duck was about to leave, Mr.Birkins stopped him.
''Duck, your freak friends, Barry and Reynald from the 9th grade wanted me to give you this. Seeing as they thought you'd be in hospital longer.''
Mr.Birkins held out a ''Get well soon'' card, signed by both of them. There it went, the last peice of Ducks plan had just clicked into place. Duck smiled the same kind of smile you'd usually see on Mr.Birkins.
''Why, thankyou so much Mr.Birkins.'' Duck said innocently while taking the card and going off to have recess.
The school-day went and Duck went home. He went straight into his room. His plan was to forge two notes, one for Barry, one for Reynald, addressed from eachother. The notes would say to meet at the park at 8:00 PM. Duck would then wait and hide until they showed up. If they did anything while together, which he hoped they would, he'd take a picture with the camera intergrated into his watch, and show it to everyone at school.
Now that he had that ''get well soon'' card from them, with both their hand-written signatures on it, he could scan it into his computer and use a program to copy their hand-writing and make a font out of it.
Duck eagerly scanned the card in, selected the two signatures on the screen to be made into two fonts. When the program asked what to call the two fonts, Duck named them freakB and freakR.
The computer took only a minute to save their signatures and make two whole new fonts out how it caculated their hand-writing to be. When it was done, Duck was ready to write.
He wrote ''Dear Barry, please meet at the Acmetropolis park, by the small Duck pond at 8:00 tonight. Love, Reynald.''
Then he simply ''copied&pasted'' what he had wrote into another file, changed fonts, and then reversed the names. He printed them out, they looked so realistic, he thought.
The next day at recess, Duck snuck back in and retrieved the notes from his back-pack. He hurried upstairs to the 9th grade class room and located Barrys and Reynalds desks. He opened them, placed the notes, and ran outside quickely before the bell rang.
When the 9th grade science teacher asked the class to get out their chemistry books, Barry and Reynald simultanously found and read the notes. Neither Barry or Reynald thought about it, they wanted to meet.
It was 7:59 PM. Duck sat behind a thick bush on the other side of the duck pond, watching videos on his watch while he waited. He checked the time and shut off the video function.
Duck made a small hole in the bush to look through. Suddenly he heard some foot-steps. A dark figure started to approach the bench by the Duck pond, it was Barry. He sat down and looked around.
Some minutes went by and Duck was nervous Reynald wasnt going to show up. Then he heard running. It was reynald, he came down the same path as Barry and sat down next to him on the bench.
''About time!'' Barry said with crossed arms.
''Sorry...'' Replied a panting Reynald.
''So, was there any specific reason you wanted to meet?'' Barry asked curiously.
''What do you mean? You gave me a note, remember?'' Reynald replied puzzled.
''So you got a note too?'' Barry asked chocked. Reynald nodded slowly.
Duck gulped, he hadnt expected this. A couple seconds went by as the two puzzled looking teens thought.
''Well... its not a prank. Because the only one that know about us is Duck. Hes only ten years old, I dont think he could figure out something so elaborate, whatever it is.''
Duck's face went red of anger as he clenched his teeth, trying to stay quite.
''Well maybe God put the notes there!'' Barry said sarcastically. Reynald let off a good laugh.
''Thats one of the reasons I like you so much Barry... your sarcastic sense of humor.'' Reynald put his hand ontop of Barrys paw. They got caught in eachothers eyes and made had the same identical smile.
It was now or never, the hands, the look, everything was perfect! Duck quickely put his watch on camera mode and took the picture he longed for, and snuck away in the dark of night back home.
As soon as he got home he hooked the watch into his computer, and uploaded the pictures. He then sent them to everyone he knew at school.
The next day Barry and Reynald were met with hell. 2761, or 1761, it didnt seem to matter to the kids...
It started mildely. As they walked together to school, other kids from school made kissing mimes at them, while passing. Already then they knew something was terribly wrong.
At class it was whispering, and giggling behind their backs. While the teacher was reading from a history book, a girl poked Barry on the back and asked him queitly ''Umm... are you like, gay or bi?'' He ignored her and turned around.
Recess was truely hell for the young couple. A group of guys from the basherball team immediately surronded them and began to mock them. Nothing was comprehendible due to the frequency of the speech.
Duck was sitting on a bench quite a distance away watching the whole thing. It fealt great to see them like this, but yet he still wasnt satisfyed. Not at all.
''Fruit!'' It sounded loudly from an 11th grade basherball winger. Barry had lost it, that was it. He leapt a whole yard through the air and right into the 6 foot juggernaut of a 17-year-old. He went crashing to the ground while Barry furiously mauled one fist after the other directly into his face.
The winger was out cold. When recess ended and the teachers found out what happened, they decided Barry should be expelled for excessive violence. They didnt mention a word about the jocks, or any of the other students and pupils who mocked Barry and Reynald that day.
Duck liked it, he liked it alot, but none of it satisfyed his sadistic craving to hurt Barry and Reynald. He wouldnt have the chance to do anything more though. After his mother got word of the incident at recess, she insisted he be moved to another school.
''That was twelve years ago...'' Duck thought, but his craving had not gone anywhere. Tech and Rev had taken the same places in Ducks mind as Barry and Reynald.
''I'll do it again...'' Duck whispered to himself.
Ok, this is were im going to do something pretty interesting, and new to my knowledge. I'm going to branch the story two ways: Bright and Dark, Bright is going to be positive were things go nice, and Tech&Rev have a happy ending... Dark is going to be drenched with depression, suffering, and overall drama, drama, and more drama.
Pt. 7 - DARK
Duck looked at the clock, he had been there for hours, having his flashback. He shook his head and looked at the clock again. Before he had time to think about anything, a knock came at the door.
''Duck? Dinner.'' Lexi's voice sounded from the other side of the door.
''I'll be right out.''
All the Loonatics, except Tech and Rev were sitting at the dinner table.
''Where are the love boirds?'' Ace asked looking around. The other Loonatics shrugged. Perfectly timed, Tech and Rev came in holding around eachothers waists. The loonatics all turned their concentration to them.
''Guys, we've decided to eat out together. You dont mind do you?'' Tech announced
''Aww... your going out on a date.'' Lexi said sweetly with a tilted head. Rev blushed slightly.
''Nah, we dont mind. Go have a nice evening.'' Ace said smiling.
''I certainly dont mind!'' Ducks comment shattered the otherwise positive atomosphere. Slam nudged him with his elbow.
''Well-then-see-ya-guys!'' Rev said cheerfully as he picked up Tech.
Tech chuckled ''Rev, you arent, are you?'' In that Rev sped off with the coyote in his arms. The next thing was they were standing on the side walk in the middle of a beautiful night on acmetropolis.
''Uh-uh-uh-uh-Tech-look-theres-a-chinese-place!'' Rev was begging the dizzy coyote. Tech hadnt eaten chinese in a good while now.
''Ok, easy! We'll go to the chinese place.''
''YES! I-love-you-I-love-you-I-love-you.'' Rev spat out as he grapped Tech again and practically teleported the already disorientated coyote inside the chinise restruant.
Inside, the sounds of chattering and traditional chinese music was present. Rev looked around and immediately spotted an empty table for two by a window. He poked Tech and pointed to the empty table.
As they were reading the menus, a waiter came up to them dressed in red silk lined with gold.
''And what would you sirs like?''
''I'd like some roasted duck with sweet&sour pork, please.''
''I think I'll just start with some chicken-noodle soup.'' Rev said hesitatingly as he looked at the menu again.
''Very well.'' The waiter said as he left. The two were starting to get lost in eachothers eyes, when a voice Rev never wanted to hear again sounded.
''S-s-s-so t-thats m-m-my s-s-sucessor?'' A white wolf anthro, that seemed to be nothing but skin and bones stuttered.
''Warren... I'm sorry, but you'' Rev was cut off
''Y-y-y-you dont e-e-even k-know, what i-it did t-to m-m-me.'' The white wolf anthro, apparently called Warren, turned his arms around to reveal scars upon scars, upon scars, were covering the underside of his arms.
The tears in Revs eyes started to swell as Tech stared amazed at the unbeleviable amount of scars.
''I'm so sorry Warren, I'm sorry!'' Rev said as he grapped one of Warrens arms and pulled it up to his head, tears rolling down his cheeks. The restruant had gone quite, Tech didnt know what to do.
''I've waited to hear you say that, a long time.'' Warrens junkie-like stutter was gone. He pulled out a razor blade and in instant, retracted his arm to himself again and slit him wrist wide open.
''NO WARREN!'' Rev dived down as Warren crashed to the floor, whilst people in the restruant were screaming in terror. Rev tried to take a cloth and tie it around Warrens wrist to stop the bleeding, but he kept struggling against Rev.
Rev saw no other option but to knock out Warren. With one swift blow to the top of his head Warren was out. Rev quickly tied a napkin tightly around his wrist, the bleeding wasnt stopping, but it had slowed signifigantly.
Sirens sounded throughout the city. An ambulance swerved down and soon paramedics came in to take over for Rev. Rev was still crying, he was in complete shock.
Tech and Rev left the restruant after they had seen to Warren was taken care of by the paramedics. Rev rested his head on Techs shoulder all the way home to the tower.
Tech had never seen Rev like this before, he was trembling while tears continued to roll down his cheeks. Tech himself was in abit of shock. He had just witnessed someone, who was obviously one of Rev's ex-boyfriends try to kill himself.
But what he fealt most of all was worry, Rev seemed so tramautized.
Tell me if you think this was too much for the normal fan-fic section. And please! Constructive criticism!
Hmm, I've always thought what I wrote was too predictable. Good to catch people off gaurd for a change... though if I compared it to some of the other stuff I've read here in the normal section, I personally think this is barely stretching.
This is just a really nice peice of fluff... as opposed to the DARK pt.7, since I cant write this much fluff at once, its going to come in pt.7 A and B.
Pt. 7 A - BRIGHT Duck looked at the clock, he had been there for hours, having his flashback. He shook his head and looked at the clock again. Before he had time to think about anything, a knock came at the door.
''Duck? Dinner.'' Lexi's voice sounded from the other side of the door.
''I'll be right out.''
All the Loonatics, except Tech and Rev were sitting at the dinner table.

''I think I'll just start with some chicken-noodle soup.'' Rev said hesitatingly as he looked at the menu again.
''Very well.'' The waiter said as he left. The two were starting to get lost in eachothers eyes.
Tech loved to just gaze upon Rev, he would lose himself inside those emerald green eyes, bordered by neat blue feathers. He loved the shade of purple of Rev's head feather. The way it was so angular made him look so sharp. He loved his beak too, it gave his face its whole character. But he especially loved to see Rev out of uniform when all his natural colors were visible, like they were now, green, blue, purple, and yellow.
''Your roasted duck with sweet&sour pork, Mr.Coyote, and heres your chicken-noodle soup Mr. Roadrunner.'' The waiter broke Their eye-lock with these words as he put their food down on the table.
''Wait, we didnt you tell you who we are.'' Tech said as he stopped the waiter from going back to the kitchen. The waiter just tilted his head to give him that ''Dont you think I'd know?'' look.
Tech nodded to end the conversation of face expressions.
Rev started to gaze at Tech, he found Techs carnivorous features so handsome in a rugged animal way. Especially his yellow eyes, they looked just like those of a wild dog. Yet it was so cute in an ironic way, because he was a more than civilized and brilliant inventor, not to mention a genius. It was so funny to watch someone with so many carnivorous features eat politely with a fork and knife.
''Tech, could you be just alittle bit more... umm... beastly with your food?'' Rev asked nervously. Tech just raised and eyebrow and looked confused.
Rev gently rubbed his foot up against Techs shin and flicked his eyebrows abit. Tech just cracked a smile as he put down his fork and knife.
He picked up a duck leg and started ripping it apart with his sharp canine teeth. Rev grinned, he had always wanted to see Tech do something like that, some sort of act that matched his carnivorous looks.
Tech wasnt so keen on making a fool of himself, but he put Rev's entertainment ontop of that. Though he was still pretty confused about the whole thing.
A waiter came marching down to their table. Tech put down the massacrated duck leg, he had duck sauce all over his face. The waiter just stared at him.
''Umm... yes?''
''I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave the restruant.''
Tech knew what for, he didnt ask. He wiped his face off with the napkin and they left. Once they were outside Rev broke into laughter.
''You think thats funny? What was the whole ''be more beastly with your food'' thing about anyway?''
Rev halted his laughing as best he could
''I just really really really wanted to see you do something more wild, you know that fits your ''rugged canine looks.''
''Ooooh, now I get it. You cant get enough of my rugged masculinity.'' Tech said sarcastically as he flexed his bicepts.
''Tech! Look-look-look-the-carnivals-in-town-can-we-go? Please-please-please!!!'' Rev said sounding just like an excited child.
Tech sighed, ''How could I say no? But we dont have so much money left, we only intended to get dinner.
Tech and Rev were strolling down a pathway in the carnival.
''Ok, we really dont have so much money left, so what do you want to try?'' Tech asked seriously.
''Ok-ok-ok. Hmmm'' Rev looked around. ''We should definately try that rollercoaster there!''
''What do you mean ''we''? I'm not going on that thing!'' Tech asked with raised eyebrow.
''Bu-bu-bu...'' Rev made puppy eyes.
''Ugh! Ok! But can we do something that doesnt go 200 MPH first?''
Rev's face lit up ''Sure! Whatever you want.''
''Hmm... I've always loved those rifle stands.''
''Rifle stand it is!'' Rev said as he was about to grap Techs arm.
''Dont even think about it!'' Tech said as he quickly swiped Rev's hand away.
''Sorry... bad habit.'' Rev said innocently.
Tech and Rev walked over to the mixed game stands, at a normal pace.
''What about this one Tech?''
''No its those laser ones, I hate those. I want to shoot pellets. Look! Theres an old fashion one!'' Tech pointed abit down the line of game stands.
''2 quarsarliums for 12 shots'' Said the rifle-stand operator. Tech handed over the money without saying a word. The operator loaded the pellets and took off the safety.
''Anything you like?'' Tech said suggjestively and pointed to the many stuffed animals on the wall. Tech was fully confident Rev would pick a plushie of him.
''Hmm... that Wile E. coyote plushie looks cute!'' Rev replied.
''You can see Wile E. in the acmetropolis musuem! Why do you want him?'' Tech protested.
''Jealous over a dead-guy huh?'' Rev said playfully. Rev drew his head up to Techs ear. ''Because I already have one of you.''
''Oh... very well.'' Tech said with satisfyed tone.
''You see Rev any idiot could shoot some ducks from here. The thing is, the cross hairs are crooked. You just have to orientate yourself as to were the pellet goes in comparison with the crosshair.''
Tech said as he fired the first pellet as a test, while Rev watched observantly.
''See that went alittle to the right, that means I just have to aim left of the target.'' Tech said and continued to fire the remaining 11 pellets, which were all bullseyes.
''Congratulations, Mr. Coyote, you can pick any prize you want.''
''That Wile E. plushie'' Tech said proudly as he pointed at it.
The operator went over and took down the plushie. He handed it to Tech, who then handed it to Rev. Rev smiled and hugged it as they started walking over to the rollercoaster Rev had picked earlier.
''You know he is my great, great, great, great, great, grand-dad,right?''
''Yep, who could never catch my great, great, great, great, great, grand-dad.'' Rev said as he stuck his tongue out at Tech.
''I'm not chasing you Rev.''
''Aww'' Rev protested as they reached the end of the line to the rollercoaster.
''Rev, I dont get it, you can run over ten times faster than this ride, whats the deal?'' Tech asked
''Gee I never really thought about that. I guess it might have something to do with that when I'm running, thats just me running, when I'm strapped in...''
''Ok, I get it... I think.'' Tech said abit confused.
''Are you sure you dont wanna come on the ride?''
''I hate rollercoasters, abosoloutely not!''
''Have you ever been on one?'' Rev asked questioning.
''Well, no actuelly.''
''Then how can you kno-'' Rev was cut off.
''Fine! open mindedness, yadda yadda, I'll go.''
''Yes'' Rev said triumphfully.
After they had finally made it to the front of the line, payed for the ride, and found two seats next to eachother, Tech was shaking out of fear. He had always been terrified of rollercoasters, he just didnt want to go that fast, and especially not in those directions!
The large chest gaurds that kept you from falling out of your seat, automatically came down. It wouldnt be long now. Rev noticed Techs shaking and squeezed his hand gently.
''Tech, nothings going to happen to you, I wouldnt let anything happen to you, now would I?''
Tech found some slight comfort in these words, and held his hand tightly. The ride started. Techs heart was beating so hard he thought he was going to die.
As they got over the first climb and started to get up to speed, Tech started to relax, he didnt find it frightful at all. As they went around the cork-screw he raised he let his arms in the air and started laughing.
He loved the feeling of high-speed, and G-forces, combined with the cooling wind ripping through his fur. When the ride was over Tech and Rev were both chuckling. When they were outside the exit door Tech kissed Rev on the lips and said,
''Thanks for helping me conquoer that fear.'' Tech said sweetly
''And thankyou for showing me a great night, but lets go home now, Duck might have layed bear traps for us'' Rev replied.
Tech chuckled at the idea as they strolled out of carnival with eachothers hands in their back-pockets.
Too much fluff or too little? I'm not the most emotional and sensitive person so I cant tell. Its like asking a guy with no taste-buds to taste test fine wine.
Just the right amount of fluff, really. It was pretty cute. I was especially intrigued, since I am a roller coaster enthusiast. The allusion to Wile E and the Roadrunner was good, too.
Rev sat on one of the couches in the dark living room with Tech. It was late and the rest of the Loonatics were sleeping. Rev still had trails of tears tailing down from his eyes as Tech put his arm around him.
''So, who was Warren?''
Rev sniffed and proceeded to answer ''He was an old boy-friend from college.''
''Go on.''
''The thing is, he was always really depressed and no one ever talked to him. I fealt so bad for him, that when I found out he had a huge crush on me... I just wanted to make him happy. I found out that he was using drugs aswell.''
''Yikes...'' Tech said under his breath.
''To try and get him off it, I said that if he didnt stop I'd break up with him. He loved me more than the high, so I thought it would work. He seemed clean for a couple months but then I found some needles in his trash-can.''
''So you broke up?'' Tech asked
''What do think?'' Rev said irritated, which was abit unusual for him.
A yawn sounded from a shirtless Ace in the doorway.
''Whats wrong with Rev?'' Aces voice said.
''I don't think he wants to talk about it right now, do you Rev?''
Rev just shook his head.
Ace gave a look of worry, something horrible must have happened he thought.
''Well are'nt you two going to bed now, its late?''
Another yawn sounded from Lexi who peeked around Ace's side wearing his shirt. Ace bit his lip when he realized she was there.
''Are Tech and Rev back yet?'' She asked before completely opening her eyes.
In another part of the HQ, a shadowy figure was sneaking through Tech's lab, it was Duck.
''I know exactly what it looks like, if only I could find it in this damn mess.''
Duck spotted a mettalic bracelet with a small interface on it, laying on a table in a cludder of papers.
''Ah-ha!'' Duck said as he picked it up and slipped it down the pocket of his pajama pants and snook off back to bed.
''I dont think they wanna be bothered Lexi.'' Ace said.
''Oh my god, Rev's crying, what happened?''
''I'm sure they'll tell us some other time, now lets let them be and go to bed.'' Ace said seriously. Ace and Lexi left the doorway and went back to bed.
''Cmon Rev, we better get going too.'' Tech said he got up from the couch.
After changing into their pajamas and brushing their teeth, Tech and Rev were about to go into their bed rooms.
''Do you want to sleep together tonight?'' Tech asked gently.
''No I'd rather be alone to myself tonight.'' Rev answered with a saddened tone.
''Ok, I just thought since, you know what happened you'd want some company...''
''No thanks Tech.''
Rev went into his bedroom and shut the door on a disappointed looking Tech. He hated sleeping alone at night, especially when there was someone to sleep with.
He sighed and went to bed aswell. Little did he know Duck had been watching the whole thing from around the corner.
''Ok coast is clear.'' Duck thought to himself as he crept into his own bedroom.
Sorry if you thought that was quite short and boring.
