RORY:
I can't believe the stupid car
broke down!
ZACH:
Well who was supposed to
check the gas and shit?
COLIN:
I dunno. I think it was your
turn (zach glares at colin evily)
TABBY:
C'mon, cool it! (turns to merinja)
We have enough problems as it is
MERINJA
I can fix it! Somebody life the hood!
ZACH:
Uhm... Merinja? Liam took the car to
get it fixed. There isn't a hood to look
under.
MERINJA
(smile fades) Oh. (grins) Well then, c'mon team!
Double time! (jogs a little)
(everybody groans)
TABBY
Merinja? Where the hell are you jogging to?
COLIN
Or rather, why are you jogging at all?
this place is perfect! (spins slowly) trees,
grass, water, dirt.
ZACH
What are you? Some kinda queer nature boy?
COLIN
(hands on hips, acts queer)
Oh yes Zach dawling, you're really one to
talk.
RORY
Bitch fight!
MERINJA
No bitch fight! C'mon everyone! this is such an
adventure!
RORY
Awww!
ZACH
Ohh god, I'm being smuthered by all this
enthusiasm
TABBY
Can't you guys get along for five minutes?
(pouts)
MERINJA
Oh, Tabby, quit pouting! We came on this trip to
have fun and we're going to have fun. We'll have
a campfire and roast marsh mellows...
COLIN
(to merinja. covers ears)
Lalalalalalala
RORY
(whispers loudly)
Anyone else wanna hit her?
(COLIN and MERINJA stop)
TABBY
So what's next?
RORY
Shelter, food, water
MERINJA
fun!
(RORY glares at her)
RORY
we can't build a fire cause we don't have any
matches, but we do have a bunch of flashlights
TABBY
(mock enthusiasm)
and what do you propose we do with them?
COLIN
(looks at Zach with evil twinkle in eye)
Bean someone?
ZACH
(grabs crotch)
Blow me
TABBY
(groans)
Can't you forget your balls for two seconds?
COLIN
(to zach)
Well, if you insist...
(leans closer to zach and ZACH jumps back in surprise)
(MERINJA giggles)
ZACH
(snaps at merinja)
Shut up Merinja
RORY
we should get some wood or something to make shelter...
COLIN
(sarcastic)
Wow! I never would of thought up that!
TABBY
(glares at him)
Shouldn't somebody stay here?
RORY
I don't think so. The more of us that go get supplies,
the less trips we have to make.
MERINJA
Sorry Rory (giggles at the rhyme)
but I think Tabby-tabb's is right. So I'll volunteer
to stay behind!
COLIN
(mouths a yay and does happy dance. stops in mid-position
when notices everybody is staring at him. clears throat
and speaks solemly)
I agree
TABBY
(ignoring merinja) not to ruin your fun or anything, but
maybe we shouldn't leave the cheer-loser to her own devices.
ZACH
humph
RORY
Thanks for volunteering Tabby!
COLIN
Okay, it's decided. Tabbycat stays with *ahem*
said cheer-loser.
ZACH
tootles
(waves arogantly)
TABBY
(to leaving group)
But...
(groans. to merinja)
you stay over there. One step towards me and you will
drown in that lake
MERINJA
(as tabby flops down at base of tree)
But...!
TABBY
shut up!
