Katie: Where's everyone else?

Delko: *climbing up bedpost* They're still stuck in the Hummercraft.

Colton: Geez Eric what did you do to make a lion that mad?

Delko: I poked his nose with a stick.

Katie/Anni/Colton/Carly: *look at Eric*

Delko: ...What! I wanted to see if he was awake.

Katie: You'd be dead if you didn't have Horatio.

Delko: Nu uh, I'd be dead if I didn't have...Wait. No you're right.

Lion breaks through door

Everyone: *screams*

Katie: QUICK! GET THE BUG SPRAY!

Colton: THAT'S FOR BUGS!

Anni: HERCULES! HERCULES! HERCULES! SAVE US!

Miami--Locker room

Lori: *opens locker*

Calleigh: *walks in* Hey.

Lori: *nods*

Calleigh: How's your week been?

Lori: Great.

Calleigh: ...Something you want to talk about?

Lori: *scratches head*

Calleigh: You can tell me.

Lori: I don't know, it's nothin'.

Calleigh: Spill it.

Lori: *smirks* I just...Well...Life's goin' well. It's kind of weird.

Calleigh: Weird?

Lori: It's stupid to say but...Things seem too normal for me.

Calleigh: I thought you were tired of always being put in danger and dealing with all these things.

Lori: I was.

Calleigh: Girl you are complex.

Lori: *laughs* I'll take that as a compliment.

TBC....................

 

^^ Heh, I do. If I didn't the RT would have been over before it began and we wouldn't have anything to waste our time with. :lol:

Thanks Anni!

Trace Lab, Miami

Lori: *walks in, sits*

Speed: *looking through microscope*

Lori: *looks around*

Speed: *lifts head, writes things down on paper*

Lori: *taps on table*

Speed: *flips page*

Lori: *swinging legs*

Speed: *writing*

Lori: *whistles*

Speed: *lifts eyes*

Lori: What.

Speed: Don't you have work to do?

Lori: No.

Speed: So why are you here.

Lori: *smiles* Ah this takes me back. I think it was a couple of weeks before I was ripped away from all that I loved.

Speed: *frowns* That's not funny.

Lori: *smiling* Man I wanted to be just you. I had it all figured out by age five. I was going to be a scientist cowgirl.

Speed: *looks at Lori*

Lori: Okay so that's why five year olds have to wait at least until they're 16 to make that kind of choice but the point is you rocked in my little five year old eyes.

Speed: Good to know.

Lori: Hm, how do you think I would have turned out if I hadn't been forced to live out my days in a foreign country?

Speed: *turns page of file* Probably exactly the same.

Lori: You're not a very engaging conversationalist.

Speed: I'm working.

Lori: You need to have more fun.

Speed: You need to find something to do.

Lori: Can I help you?

Speed: No.

Lori: Party pooper.

Speed: Are you on Prozac or something?

Lori: No. OH! I know what to get you for your birthday. Steel-toed boots. They kick. Ass. Sometimes literally.

Speed: *lifts brow*

Lori: WHAT.

Speed: What's the matter with you?

Lori: Nothin'. I just figured since I spent half my life either not here or on drugs, I might as well catch up. Carpe diem.

Speed: ...

Lori: It means cease the day.

Speed: Well you mind 'ceasing' somewhere else? I have to get this finished.

Lori: OH! I have an idea. I've never been to Vegas before. Can I go to Vegas?

Speed: Go ahead.

Lori: Can I have money?

Speed: Nice try.

Lori: You give mom money all the time.

Speed: Yeah not for gambling.

Lori: I won't gamble. I'll go to the male strip clubs.

Speed: *frowns*

Lori: *grinning*

Calleigh: *walks in* Hey guys.

Lori: CALLEIGH!

Calleigh: ..Uh..*laughs* Hi.

Lori: *hugs Calleigh* Boy am I glad to see you. Want to go have fun?

Calleigh: *looks at Speed*

Speed: *rolls eyes*

Calleigh: Sure, where to?

Lori: Male strip club.

Calleigh: *wide-eyed*

Lori: C'mon it'll be fun. We can entice them with money and them rip it away and LAUGH IN THEIR FACES!

Calleigh: *nods slowly* How about a movie?

Lori: About male strippers?

Speed: Lori, on behalf of all mankind, don't go to a male strip club.

Lori: Fine. Movie it is.

Calleigh: What do you want to go see?

Lori: *scratches head* Hmm...

Calleigh: Chick flick?

Lori: Ew.

Calleigh: Action?

Lori: Now you're speakin' my language.

Calleigh: *smiles* Great, why don't you meet me outside?

Lori: Sure. *leaves*

Calleigh: Is she on Prozac?

Speed: I think she's just happy and doesn't know quite how to show it.

Calleigh: I think it's cute.

TBC.............

 

They will be together soon, heh.

And yeah Live Free or Die Hard kicks serious kabootie. I own it now.

Heh thanks for the reviews everyone!

********************

Lori's house

Calleigh: So tonight was fun.

Lori: Yeah. *smiles* I've never had a 'girl night' or whatever it was you called it.

Calleigh: *smiles* Ever though about gettin' out there and making some more friends?

Lori: *rolls eyes* Me and people tend to not get along.

Calleigh: I don't know, I spent three and a half hours with you. I think you're interesting, intelligent, funny, vivaciou-

Lori: Yeah, I know.

Calleigh: All I'm sayin' is it might be lonely just workin' then comin' home to an empty house.

Lori: I'm fine with it. I used to live alone all the time. Besides, I get annoyed when people invade my space.

Calleigh: *nods*

Lori: Oh but you're fine.

Calleigh: Thanks.

Lori: *hugs Calleigh*

Calleigh: Oof!

Lori: Thanks for hangin' out with me.

Calleigh: Not a problem kiddo.

Lori: *lets go*

Calleigh: I should be headin' home so, have a good night.

Lori: You too.

Calleigh: *leaves*

Lori: *sits on couch* Well...*sigh* This is fun. *turns on tv*

Ten minutes later

Doorbell is heard

Lori: Great, what. *stands, walks to door, opens it* ...Hello! Hey, I'm not the one who knocked on my own door! *sigh* Damn kids. *slams door, turns around*

Lights go out

Lori: Ugh, seriously? Not again. *flipping light switch* You have got to be kidding me. 100 degrees and I don't have air conditioning now.

Candles around the room swoosh on

Lori: *looks around*

Gavin: *walks downstairs*

Lori: *stares at Gavin*

Gavin: *walks over, hands over flowers*

Lori: ...

Gavin: Had to get you out of the house for a few hours.

Lori: *smiles*

Gavin: *kisses Lori*

Lori: *wraps arms around Gavin*

Gavin: I missed you.

Lori: Me too.

Gavin: You know, seven months ago tonight was when we first met?

Lori: *walks over to kitchen, places flowers in vase* I didn't notice.

Gavin: *scratches head* Yeah well I figured it wasn't somethin' you were keepin' tabs on.

Lori: *laughs*

Gavin: So how have you been?

Lori: I've been staying out of trouble if that's what you mean.

Gavin: Great.

Lori: So you still on on duty?

Gavin: *lifts brow*

Lori: Gun and badge.

Gavin: *looks down* Uh, yeah I guess I am.

Lori: Do they know you're gone?

Gavin: No so shh.

Lori: *shakes head* You're insane.

Gavin: Thank you.

Lori: *sigh* I can't believe we got married after seven months.

Gavin: You thought you were dying and suggested it.

Lori: But you didn't know and agreed.

Gavin: *laughs* Yeah well we're both insane.

Lori: *looks around* How the hell did you get the candles to do that?

Gavin: *walks over* We have one night together for God knows how long and you're concerned about the candles.

Lori: They're a fire hazard.

Gavin: *places gun and badge on table*

Lori: Ugh why did you have to be a cop.

Gavin: Guess I had it comin'. *winks*

Lori: HA haha...ha..

Phone rings

Lori: PHONE! *runs for phone, trips* AH! *grabs phone* Hello! ...No this isn't Greg DeWalt. Do I sound like a dude? Yeah. No problem. *hangs up phone*

Gavin: *crosses arms*

Lori: *stands, turns around* Didn't...Ahem, realize the carpet was there.

Gavin: *smiles* There's no carpet there.

Lori: *looks down*

Africa, trail

Katie: Okay I'm not one to complain but this is taking a really long time. I haven't seen one animal yet.

Horatio: Patience is a virtue.

Katie: Yeah well I haven't seemed to inherit that one.

Delko: My bum hurts.

Anni: So stop falling into the fire ants.

Delko: I CANT HELP IT! They're everywhere and I don't have balance.

Colton: Eric why don't we get you a leash.

Delko: I wish.

Horatio: Shh everyone get down.

Anni: *dives into tree* AH!

Katie: ...He didn't mean like that.

Anni: Well you never know.

Horatio: Look at those two birds over there.

Delko: You mean those tiny brown ones?

Horatio: Those are rocks.

Delko: ...

Horatio: The bigger brown ones.

Delko: What about them?

Horatio: I want to take a picture so everyone shut up.

Lora: CAW! CAW!

Birds fly away

Horatio: Um...Why did you do that?

Lora: I wanted to see if they'd respond.

Ryan: Lora, Eric responds to loud noises. We can safely say birds do too.

Delko: WHERE'S THE CROW! *swinging large stick* WHERE IS IT!

Katie: OW! Eric! Stop swinging it!

Delko: There's a killer crow out there!

Horatio: Eric there's no killer crow.

Delko: BUT I HEARD IT!

Lora: You heard me.

Delko: You're not a crow.

Ryan: That's it. *grabs leash from pocket* You need this now.

Missy: I brought the shock collar too.

Horatio: We're not using shock collars.

Katie: How about tasers.

Horatio: No tasers.

Katie: Dang.

Horatio: *looks up* Um...Guys...Why don't we move um somewhere else.

JC: Why? *looks up* AH LEOPARD! LEOPARD! *hugs Horatio*

Delko: Hey an animal. Aren't you going to take a picture H?

Horatio: We should have brought a vehicle.

Katie: Great, why don't we go to Canada next and get eaten by grizzlies.

Anni: OH I WANT TO GO!

Horatio: Shhhh. *backs up* Let's go this way.

Delko: I think it can still see us. We should split up.

Lora: No stupid, it'll single us out. And it'll definitely single you out.

Delko: *frowns*

Horatio: We all stay together.

Leopard jumps out of tree

Delko: *screams* RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

Everyone runs

Horatio: NO! No running! No! *sigh* Great.

Leopard: *licks lips*

Horatio: Yes, well. Two can play at this game. *licks lips*

Leopard: *stares at Horatio*

Leopard: *lifts brow*

Horatio: ....AH! *runs*

Leopard: *runs*

Trail

Delko: Where's Horatio?

Katie: *stops running* I don't know.

Missy: I think he got eaten by the leopard.

Horatio: *runs over, all cut up* I DON'T LIKE AFRICA! THE SHADES ARE USELESS! And broken. *starts to cry*

Ryan: She broke your shades?

Horatio: *gets to knees* THIS IS WORSE THAN WHEN MY HUMMERHOME SANK! I'M POWERLESS!

Horatio: Ow, stop.

Katie: *pulls Horatio's hair*

Anni: *pokes Horatio*

Horatio: Ow.

Lora: STOP IT!

Katie: He has no power to stop us.

Lora: *kneels* Horatio, despite what you think, your shades don't give you power. Your muscles do.

Horatio: But I don't have any. That's why I needed my shades! DON'T YOU GET IT! Before you know it, Stetler's gonna take over the lab, he'll change it into a blinding rainbow and I'll be chained to the middle of it RETINAS BLAZING!

Katie: You've still got your badge.

Horatio: Oh it means NOTHING these days.

Delko: How about your Hummer?

Horatio: It's just a big target for bombs and dings. And I hate getting dings in my doors.

Colton: So...Who's going to protect us in Africa?

Katie: *bites nails*

Ryan: I'LL DO IT. *places hands on hips, shifts positions* This calls for a....*puts on cape* Wolfe.

Everyone: ...

Ryan: The music didn't start.

Delko: That means you're not in charge. Okay lemme try. Okay. *clears throat* This looks like a job for *puts on shades* ...Delektorsky.

Everyone: ...

Lora: Yeah nice catchphrase. You've just earned one viewer and his name is Eric Delko.

Delko: Viewer?

Lora: Nothing.

Katie: Okay let me try. *grabs shades*

Horatio: Stop! You're breaking them even more!

Katie: We....*puts on shades* Need to get out of Africa.
