Dino and Jenn snuggled a bit, romance filling their eyes, to one side of the fire. On the other side, Jeheveron eyed the two lovebirds and huffed a bit. "I think I'm gonna be sick." Red and Livingston, had decided it was time to catch up on the important things in life: they were a sleep. And in yet another place, Orelious, Ben, and Stormfront were picking through the remains of the talking toaster oven. "OWW!!" cried Stormfront, as the pieces sie was fiddling with suddenly sparked, zapping hir a bit. Sie went back to work. "OWW!" sie cried again as the same thing happened. "Maybe you should stop doing that," suggested Ben. "Stop doing what? OWW!!" Orelious tried hir best to control a giggle. The lioness winked at Dino, "See what happens when you use your head, Dino?" Dino looked up, blushing a little. "Well, what good was a talking toaster oven going to do us?" Orelious the Goat remarked, "Well, we'll never know now, thanks to you. It obviously was intended for something, or we wouldn't have been sent for it." Jenn nuzzled, "They're right Dino. That was a dumb move." Dino blushed further and lowered his head. Jenn smiled and hugged the parasolophus closer. "OWW!!" Orelious burst out laughing through all three heads. When sie got hirself under control again sie turned to Stormfront. "Bye the way," said the lioness, "what were you doing out in those mists?" "Well, the adventuring business has been kinda slow lately. I had to get a part time job to suplement my income." Orelious the lioness said, "Doing what?" At the same momment, the goat also asked, "How much do you make?" Orelious gave the goat a look. The goat looked back, "Oh come on, you do realize that someday we'll have to get a real job, don't you?" The lioness ewwwwwed. Snake turned around, "Maybe we could be a prostitute!" Both goat and lioness turned on the snake a slap him around a bit. Stromfront chuckled, "Well, to answer goat, I only made comissions. To answer the lioness, I was a door to door salesdragon." "What did you sell?" asked Ben. "Well, I'll show you..." Stormfront turned into hir pack a dug around. As sie search sie tossed out a number of odds and ends: some coins, a piece of a tresure map, a notebook, and even a box full of Pepsi points. (Editor's note: as with Jenn's gun in a different mode every time, everytime Stormfront digs in hir pack, sie finds some completely bizarre.) "Ah here we go," said the dragon as sie pulled out a battered briefcase which sie set down and clicked open. Reaching inside sie pulled out a claw shaped piece of colored ice. "Dinosorceror Freezes! Guaranteed to satisfy the macro in you, or you can stomp all over our president." Stromfront handed some free samples out to everyone and they all sucked away happily. "So what should we do now? I think the toaster's a lost cause," said Dino as he sucked. "Well," replied Stormfront, "there is something more important to do now." "What's that?", asked everyone in unison. "Well, apparently there is an evil supervillan, more terrifying then Cera herself. Apparently this evil villan type has the ability to turn reality into a dream. We can all imgaine the problems that would cause if the dream world was replaced with reality. We must stop her!" Everyone gasped in horror, especially Orelious the lioness. "My notes indicate there is only one being in the universe who would be this dastardly. Selsen the Blue dragon!" Dinosorceror jumped up. "It's settled then! Tomorrow morning we all go and stop this evil fiend!" Everyone cheered! Unfortunately, they might have held their cheers if they had know that at that very momment they were in great danger. Using the confusion in the last few episodes to hir advantage, Cera had managed to catch up with the band of adventurers. At this very momment, the party was surrounded by hundreds of Cera's finest colesaur stormtroopers.... -- ************************************************************************* ** * ** Brought to you by: * * "Is that it?
