Jungle Fever 1/2 PG Comedy (as if it would be anything else from the above minds...) kittiekat90@yahoo.com thelonepig@hotmail.com "Usagi-chan? Usagi-chan? Daijobu ka?" Usagi's eyes flittered open just as a bucket of water found its mark across her face. She shot up with a start. "See, I told you it would work," said Makoto pleasantly. Usagi looked angrily at Rei, who happened to be holding a water bucket. Rei quickly hid it behind her back. The look of anger faded as Usagi looked at the sullen expressions that had come over each of her friend's faces. "Nani? What's going on guys?" "We just saw the news," spoke Ami dejectedly. "We're sorry for you Usagi." "The news?" inquired Usagi, completely lost. "Hai, about Mamoru," said Minako. Usagi suddenly remembered the Nature special she had seen before. "Why that... grr... when he comes back..." "Usagi, the veins in your neck are about to burst," said Ami. "Lighten up girl, it's not like that, I'm sure," said Lita. Ami produced a video tape and pressed it into the VCR. A picture flared up on the screen. "Next time on Burning Hearts of Desire. Miri loves Miki, but will Miki show his love instead for Hikari? And what does Shana have to say about all this? Will Grace finally take revenge on Meredith for stealing Peter from her? Find out next time on--" The sound suddenly cut off as Ami pressed the fast-forward button, blushing furiously. Everyone sweatdropped. "Ah, here it is!" cried Ami, pressing the play button and stepping aside so everyone could see. The newscaster sat behind his desk. "...The President is expected to visit later today to give his comments on the meeting." A paper was suddenly handed to him from off-screen. "This just in. Apparently a filming crew for the television show "Nature" has been kidnapped by the very amazons they were studying. We go live to our on-the-spot reporter TL Perry." The camera switched suddenly to a silly looking reporter holding a microphone and yelling above the sounds of a helicoptor motor. "We are here flying high above the scene where only moments ago, tragedy struck." The news anchor's voice continued as the cameraman panned in on the scene below. Several men were hog-tied to poles in the center of a make-shift village. "It looks like, yes it is. The men we see below are a film crew for the television show 'Nature.' The military doesn't know how to take care of the situation, but have called for an immediate mobilization in the area. Now, back to our main studio." The camera once again found itself on the man in the newsroom. He coughed nervously and adjusted himself as he spoke the words that every other male in the room was thinking. "What an unfortunate incident to befall those... lucky... lucky... men." He glanced once more at the footage still being taken from the helicopter, then straightened his tie and turned back to the camera. "In other news, police have been called in to remove an army of girls from one Meredith Mallory's kitchen. The girls state that her evil cliffhangers have merited such a reacti--" Ami turned off the television and looked at the others questioningly. "So what do we do now?" Makoto asked. "We go there, of course!" Usagi answered. "And then I drag Mamo-chan back by the ear and-" "Why don't we just let the authorities handle this Usagi-chan?" Ami cut in quickly, not liking the evil look on her leader's face. "No... I think I want to go there and challenge some of those Amazons to some fights," Makoto said excitedly, staring at the now black screen of the TV. "And I have got to ask those girls their beauty secrets," Minako added. "That smooth complexion... there's got to be something behind getting such perfect skin," she said dreamily. The others just looked at Minako's already perfect, unmarred face and could only shake their heads. "So it's settled then," Rei spoke, "we use Sailor Teleport and do our usual saving the victims routine then come back." "Demo... I don't think those men wanted saving," Minako interrupted, looking doubtful. "Oh, Mamo-chan *will* be wanting some kind of saving when I'm done with him," Usagi said, her eyes gleaming, her hands rubbing together. The others just sweatdropped. "Minna.. shouldn't we have told Luna and Artemis where we were heading?" The Senshi were traveling through the air swiftly shielded by the powers of the Teleport. "Nah," Makoto answered, "they'll know soon enough when they see us on TV." "Nani?" Ami squeaked. To be seen by millions among such heathen as the Amazon? "But I don't want to be seen on TV!" was the resounding wail that was heard by anyone who happened to be passing under the flash of light that traveled overhead. They crashed through the canopy of tall trees and fell to a heap on the jungle floor. "Who the heck was steering that thing?" Makoto asked, rubbing her arm where she had hit it on a jutting limb. "Who do you think? Our leader, the Odango Atama," Rei answered, flipping her head in Usagi's direction. "Shut up Rei!" Usagi shot back. "You probably couldn't have done a better job!" "Bet you I could have!" "Bet not!" "Bet too!" "Bet not!" "Uh... guys, what do we about these natives staring at us?" Minako asked suddenly. The other four Senshi turned slowly and met the faces of six... tall... correction, very tall... as in Makoto tall... very beautiful... Amazons. "This was not in the plan," Usagi murmured, staring at the sight before her. "It's your fault," Rei said, staring also. "What do we do now?" Suddenly Ami stepped up, holding some sort of gadget and it flashed an almost blinding, white light. "Whoa, Ami-chan, what was that?!" Minako asked, shielding her eyes. The blue haired Senshi turned back taking off black sunglasses, a small smile on her face. "It's a neuralizer." The other four stared at her, their mouths agape in amazement. "Where were you able to find one of those?" Usagi questioned, finally finding her voice. "Hey, if the Men in Black can have one, why can't the Woman in Blue?" she said, grinning. "Those dudes are real?" Minako asked. "Hai, they're the American version of us," Ami informed the group. Makoto snorted. "But we could kick their butts anytime." "Um... Ami, when I saw the movie, didn't you have to tell the person a story or something to make them forget?" Usagi asked, waving her hand back and forth in front of the Amazons' now blank faces. "Hai." "Great." Usagi smiled evilly and then turned to the six woman. "You six are women who have no interest in my Mamo-chan whatsoever. You do not remember any "breeding" festivities and you will wander the jungle for a few days before returning to the village." "Isn't that a bit harsh, Usagi-chan?" Minako asked coming up to stand next to her friend. "Serves them right." "So, what's the plan?" "We gag Mamo-chan and then it'll be up to me to see fit his punishment!" *Sweatdrop* "Usagi-chan, you should really calm down, maybe Mamoru didn't go *willingly*." "What hot-blooded man wouldn't?" This from Minako who received a glare from Rei. "Well, it appears we will have to dress up as the natives to fit in," Amy pointed out. "Sugoi! Those cocunut shells will only enhance my- mmmph!" "We don't want to hear it, Minako-chan," Makoto said quickly as she clapped a hand over the girl's mouth. She looked over at the others. "So how do we get the stuff?" The other three looked back at her expectantly. In response Makoto grinned. "Oh, hai, I guess I'll handle that part." Minutes later, Makoto returned with a wide grin on her face, cocunut 'tops' in one hand, and grass skirts in the other. "They're such easy targets," she said proudly. Everyone sweatdropped... again. A Chiba Mamoru stood tied to a wooden pole. What exactly were these beauties planning on doing with him? A new set of hips provocatively swayed in front of his eyes. A large pair of breasts bounced before him, barely contained in the coconut-double-D cups. Mamoru wailed. "If I don't see another pair of breasts in my life, it will be too soon!" He glanced longingly at the table at which several other men feasted. "Why can't I be with them? Eating?" Similarly, the men from the Nature filming crew were wondering why they couldn't be in Mamoru's place. "Why can't we be in his place? Fanservice..." They drooled, but not at the food. Usagi peered from the bushes. Her lower lip stuck out in a pout. "I have never gotten that close to Mamo-chan!" Ami gave the voice of reason to the conversation as she shifted uncomfortably in her outfit. "How are we going to get him?" "And," added Rei. "Are we going to even bother with those dirty old perverts at the table?" Usagi cried. "I just want my Mamo-chan back!" Tears poured in waterfalls from her eyes. Makoto had an idea. "Why don't we just walk in there and get him?" Minako blinked. "Just go in? Like we are now? NO WAY! They'd catch us in the blink of an eye! We don't even compare to what they look like. I'm the only one that wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb!" "That is the dumbest idea ever! We wouldn't stand a chance!" hissed Rei. "It's absolutely brilliant!" said Ami. Everyone looked at her and blinked. "They would never expect it. We could walk in, take Mamoru, and walk out without a hitch. Just follow my lead." And with that, Ami was walking from the bushes into the village. The others followed in immediate single-file. Several amazons turned to glare at the newcomers as they marched into the camp. "Ami, I don't think this is working," whispered Rei quietly. "For once, I'm going to have to agree with you Rei," replied Ami. "Perhaps a strategic withdrawl is in order?" "What are you two talking about," muttered Minako. "You're just not doing it right! Here, follow my lead." Minako took over the lead and began dancing very, very provocatively. Everyone sweatdropped. "C'mon minna, what are you waiting for. If you don't we may never see Mamoru again." Those words seemed to strike a chord in Usagi's mind, who began to mimic Mina with all the grace of a parapalegic tiger. The others resigned themselves to the same fate, dancing a very enticing congo-line to the pole that held Mamoru. From the feasting corner of the camp, the crew of Nature catcalled. "Hey baby, would you like any fries with that shake? Owowowowoooo!" Usagi shot the typical males at the table a look that only a female could muster, but managed to continue the embarassing dance. The amazons parted ways to let the motley crew step forward, some applauding and others clicking their tongues in support. The appreciative atmosphere egged on the quintet of embarrassed females. Rei was the first to start lose her self-composure and began swaying wildly to the immediate hysterics of the crowd. The others followed suit, first Makoto, then Usagi, and finally shy-little Ami. They danced directly up to the pole in the center of the village and surrounded it, dancing in a circle before Mamoru. Everytime Usagi passed him, she shot him a look that could kill and muttered some bizarre way in which she would kill him when they got home. The drums came to a climax and the five girls danced furiously until, throwing their arms in the air, the music stopped. Wild applause filled the whole camp. "Now?" inquired Makoto hesitantly. "Now," replied Ami nodding. The five girls bent over the pole and tried to pull it from the ground. "If I feel your eyes wandering in the least..." threatened Usagi. Mamoru blushed furiously and closed his eyes. "Mamoru, that had better be something you have in your pocket poking me in the ribs." Mamoru blushed even more furiously and shut his eyes tighter muttering something under his breath repeatedly. "There's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like..." Hoisting the pole between their shoulders, the girls began to walk out of the village the way they had come. The amazons were in an uproar, smiling and laughing at the antics these girls had created. The five girls waved and smiled as if on a float. "Elbow, elbow, wrist wrist wrist," said Minako under her breath as she waved. The girls danced the pole and Mamoru right out of the village and into the surrounding jungle. The applause continued for the exact time it took the amazons to realize that, maybe, just maybe, these girls weren't coming back. The five Senshi continued to sway and dance well into the forest, just for safety's sake until Mamoru's voice reached their ears. "Hey guys, mind letting me down now? This rocking is pushing the pole against my back. It hurts!" "You are going to be hurting so much more love, when I'm through with *you*!" Usagi called up and slapped her boyfriend's butt for good measure. "Itai! Usako, what did I ever do to you?!" The girls who had been previously snickering before stopped dead and suddenly the forest seemed very, very quiet, except for the sound of steam coming from someone's ears. It was an interesting... hissing noise. "Minna! Let him down right now!" Usagi yelled. The girls did as she said and let Mamoru down... with not the slightest bit of kindness. The pole was jarred into the ground and Mamoru found himself thinking that deja vu was the right word for this all too familiar situation. Five very beautiful woman stood in front of him... scantily clothed, their eyes gleaming with a purpose... directed towards him. "You dare to ask that question, Mamo-chan?" Usagi asked menacingly. Mamoru gulped nervously. His girlfriend didn't look quite pleased with him at the moment. But he couldn't find any reason why she should be so unhappy. He had done nothing wrong! Men... so thickheaded, ne? ^_^ "Gomen ne, Usako... demo, what did I do wrong?" Usagi's mean glare fell away and in place of it, her lower lip began to tremble, her chin started quivering and her eyes became watery. "Oh Kami no, not here!" Rei sighed. She sighed even louder when Usagi suddenly pushed past all of them and ran deeper into the forest. "Usako! Matte!" Mamoru tried to struggle against his bonds but it was useless. Those Amazons knew their knots. He turned his head to stare at the others. "Aren't you even going to chase after her?!" "We've got other things to worry about! The Amazons are coming!" Minako yelled. "Run for it!" The girls ran and for a moment everything was silent. Mamoru still stood stuck to the pole, his jaw wide open at the fact that he had just been *left* there to face... those.. women. "Oops, forgot the goods!" Makoto pulled the pole up as the others rushed back and helped her. "Usagi-chan would have our heads if anything happened to you, so be grateful!" Ami said, looking over her shoulder and then squeaking when she saw the approaching Amazons. "Hurry up!" "At least she won't be having our manhood like Tux-boy over here," Rei said, huffing. The sound of a helicopter ready to lift off filled the air and as they ran into a clearing, Mamoru lifted his head to see Usagi sitting in the pilot seat of the news helicopter. "How do you steer this thing?!" Ami pushed herself up to sit next to Usagi as the others piled into the back, Mamoru now loosened from his restraints.. "You don't steer, you pull!" "Like this?" Usagi pulled the stick towards her and the helicopter shot up at an ear popping pace. Everyone squealed and hung on tight as Usagi tried her best to maneuver the helicopter away from the trees. "Okay, left, left, right, away from that tree," she mumbled, her tongue sticking out slightly, her eyes narrowed. She was concentrating quite hard.... ... While everyone was screaming. "Usagi-chan! Don't you dare kill us!" "I want to survive this with all my body parts intact Usagi-chan!" "Please concentrate Usagi-chan!" "Usako, I will buy you anything, just please stay safe!" At that one, Usagi turned her head. "Hah! You're not buying me out of this one!" "Usagi-chan, please keep your eyes on the... tree!" Ami finished, shrieking and covering her eyes. "Shimatta! Going up!" Finally they had cleared the jungle and were now heading out over the sparkling, blue ocean. Everyone sighed with relief and sat back. "Hey minna, how about we use our Sailor Power to get this thing speeding along?" Makoto suggested. "Good idea, the faster we get home, the faster I get to have a *little* talk with Mamo-chan," Usagi grinned evilly. "You girls can take your time!" But no one paid Mamoru any heed as the helicopter suddenly began to glow and then disappeared in a shot of light. Hours later found Usagi sitting on the floor of the helicopter, her legs dangling and Mamoru leaning against it, next to her. The others had gone home, walking away tiredly but not before giving some sympathetic looks to Mamoru. "Do you think they'll realize they walked home wearing grass skirts and cocunut shells?" Mamoru wondered outloud. "Once the people start staring, maybe, maybe not." After a moment of silence, Mamoru turned his head to look at his girlfriend. Her head was bowed and she was tracing a pattern with her fingers on the floor of the helicopter. "Ne, Usako, what's on your mind?" Usako stayed quiet and then her piercing wail hit his ears. "Your lost innocence!!" "Nani?!" "Your innocence Mamo-chan! It belongs to me... and... and you just gave it away!!" "M...m...my innocence?!" blurted out Mamoru. Usagi cried. "My boyfriend is dirty now!" "Usagi, I'm fine, they didn't take anything from me." "Really? Promise?" Usagi asked, sniffling. "I promise." The couple embraced in a hug. "Ne, Mamo-chan, you love me more than any of those girls, right?" "Hai, Usako... I love you more than life itself." Usagi smiled happily as Mamoru leaned over her to give her a most reassuring kiss. In response, she sighed happily and kissed him back until they broke away. Usagi glanced up longingly into her boyfriend's eyes. Mamoru cleared his throat and spoke lowly. "Anou, you could perhaps grow out a bit more..." The resounding smack of an upset girlfriend slapping her boyfriend filled the park. And all around, the locals stared, wondering exactly why there was a helicopter parked in the park and who had hired the exotic dancers. The End! So do tell us folks! Feedback is always, always nice and um flames... well they're just not very nice. ^_^
