Mel And CK\'s Marvellous Plan That Isn\'t So Marvellous - Return Of Evie And Jake Part III
OOC. WARNING! THIS IS NOT FOR THE WEAK MINDED OR THE STUPID! THIS REQUIRES A MINIMUM LEVEL OF THOUGHT! BE WARNED! Who: Mel Where: Blue Dwarf Landing Bay When: A few minutes after the last post Just as Mel and CK had last exchanged looks, time froze. Callum stood where he was, not buding an inch. Everything stopped. It was just Mel. Just Mel and her mind. This happened to her sometimes, whenever something went critical. A voice would normally turn up and analyse the situation. 'Hello, Melissa.' 'Bang on time.' 'Aren't I always?' 'So, what's the problem this time...apart from the obvious?' 'Despite the fact that you helped a fugitive escape, sneaked onto a ship and went to a whole new planet, stole the ship and sneaked back here? And let's not forget - YOU TALKED TO A MAN?!' 'Yes, despite
that.' 'Well then,' her little voice sighed as if a psychiatrist sitting in a chair, leaning forward anxiously. 'Let's talk about this man, shall we?' Mel sighed as if she were the patient collapsing hopelessly into a different chair. 'What about him?' 'Why, Melissa, are you talking to him? Have you lost your common sense? Your dignity? Your morals which determine what is right and wrong? Or, have you lost your senses completely and have...' 'Oh no! No, no, it's not what it looks like! How could you even conceive of such an idea? How could I ever, you know, I mean, - him! How could I ever...' '...Fall in love? Yes, you do surprise me, Melissa. You really do.' Mel lowered her head in shame, as if the little voice inside her head were solid. It continued. 'Just goes to show how much a person can change.' It muttered in an almost provoking and persuasive tone. Mel
raised her head in shock and denial. 'Now, wait a minute, you, you, you little voice! I have not changed! Not a single bit!' 'But you do have a soft spot do him, don't you?' Mel stuttered and glanced at Callum. Lowering her shoulders hopelessly, she sighed. 'And the barriers are broken, my dear Melissa! Who thought that a woman as esteemed as you should fall for someone who reminds you of Stan...such awful brutes, men.' 'Look, conscience thing. This guy,' she gestured towards the frozen CK. 'he's different. I don't know. He and Stan are so alike and yet, so different. Okay, so I like him a little, maybe, just a little. But don't push it! So I helped him. So what?' The imaginary voice, somehow, looked up and down the man who stood there wearing a nurse's uniform and a long, red wig. 'I know it looks bad, but I like him. I don't know what he was like before his coma, but he's different. He
wouldn't do anything to hurt me. I bet he was never foolish with women, he never wronged anyone and he was a mature man. And I bet he still is. So go away! I can handle things myself! You'll ruin this like you did the last time! Go away - NOW!' The voice disappeared and finally, time continued. <tag>Claudia Wilson <princess_is_here_77@...> wrote: Who: Mel and CK Where: Blue Dwarf Landing bay When: After last post, AKA the present Melissa watched the gentle rise and fall of CK's chest as he breathed deeply. He had been sleeping for quite some time, and Mel found an almost angelic feeling to it, although every now and then it seemed that he was dreaming something disturbing, by the way he cringed his eyes. "Callum. Hey, Callum, wake up." He slowly opened his eyes as Mel nudged him. "We've arrived." CK sat up properly and looked around. "Wh-what? What? Where are are we? Is it Earth?" "No." "Oh, so you, selfish you, decided to go back to Leda, hey?" "Ssh, ssh, ssh. Calm down CK. We're not on Leda, and we're not on Earth." she reassured in a soft whisper. "So then, where are we?" Mel raised her chin and said in a more serious and official voice: "We're back on the Dwarf. I've done the responsible thing." "And what? You land in the landing bay? And I thought
you were smart! D'you realise that if we land in the landing bay, the bay where we're supposed to land, hence the term: landing bay, that there's an insy winsy possibility that they'd, I don't know - FIND US?" Mel nodded her head proudly. CK dropped his mouth in disbelief. "Well the, Mel, prepare for a load of trouble." he said as he leant back in his chair, crossed his arms behind his head and stretched his legs. "You worry too much, Callum. More than usual." "Yeah, I worry too much." he scoffed. "You seem to be forgetting, my fugitive friend, that we are not Callum Kochanski and Melissa Stratum. We are still Evie Redmill and Jake Housing." The two put on a mischievous smile and devised a plan to escape scot-free. <to be continued> OOC. As you can guess, the whole New Hawai'i incident between Mel and CK was in
the pastClaudia Wilson <princess_is_here_77@yahoo.com> wrote: OOC. I actually wanted Callum to write it, but oh well Who: Mel and CK Where: New Hawai'i Hotel When: 10 minutes after last 'snip' "No, not again! That was a one time thing - I thought we'd established that! You and your stupid ideas!" CK fiddled with his wig, placing it on his head back to front. He parted the hair from his face and grinned at Mel. "Well, I suppose you are a man." she scoffed. "But you do realise you're just taking credit for my plan when we were back on the Dwarf. If we get caught, I'm taking the blame, so everyone knows that it was moi who thought of this truly genious plan!" CK fiddled
with the wig until it sat comfortably the right way around. "I thought you said it was stupid!" he laughed. Mel's eyebrows lowered spitefully and CK retreated nervously. He just woke up from a coma, he didn't want to be put back in one. Mel pulled on a dignified face as she tied up her smelly sneakers. Sort of ironic, in a sense. CK straightened his dress and stood infront of the mirror and tried out different poses. "Does my butt look big in this?" Mel giggled as she approached the mirror, reapplying her fake moustache. "Wait, did I just hear a giggle from you?" asked CK in a voice that was shocked and expecting an explanation. "Um, no. Bust just be next door. Noisy lunatics. Day and night, they just keep going at it." "They what?" "Oh! Never mind!" Mel pushed him aside and wiped imaginary dust off her hands. "You look convincing, Evie. Are you sure
you're really a man?" Mel looked him up and down and shook her head. "Well, you'd fool me, but you're too dumb to pass the test." CK squinted his eyes, raised his upper lips and make a 'tch' noise. "Why do I have to be the girl?" "Because," explained Mel, as she went behind him and fixed his dress collar. "it adds to the disguise. Now we really have to put on an act. We feel uncomfortable, so we won't let anything slip out." "Yeah, yeah. So we sneak out you, Jake Housing, the engineer, say there's something wrong with the Vespidae's engine. You go in and pretend you've hurt yourself, so I, Evie Redmill, the nurse, come to help you. Then you take off and head back to Earth." CK reminded her, smugly. "Why Earth? Why can't I go home? Why do we even want to go home?" CK shrugged and walked off. Mel scoffed again, only in shock. "Why? Can't you be Evie Redmill,
engineer? And I be Jake Housing, intern? It makes more sense because you're actually an engineer and I'm actually a nurse!" "Hey, like you said, it makes us uncomfortable, therefore less likely to let anything slip." "This had better work."

She ran to the door and opened it. When she saw a rather smily CK, she leant an arm on her hip and put on a dissatisfied face. "Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in. Haven't you been helped enough? I'm not your mother!" CK casually glided past her
and sat down on a chair. "What are you doing?" Mel scoffed. "Does it matter? I came here to make you smile." "Make me smile? Why?" "Because you're too emo." "Emo? Emoes are people who cut and drug themselves. And wear makeup!" Mel stated a very matter-of-factly. "And you don't, Evie?"* Mel jumped in shock. "E-E-Evie? How'd you know about Evie?" She stuttered. CK pulled out a burgundy leather book with gold writing. "My diary? How did you get that?" Anger was imminent in her voice. Behind CK's nonchalant smile, he felt a little intimidated. "Let's just say I have my ways. Did you realise Evie was my non de plume, too? Things could get real messy. Just thought I'd warn you. Maybe I can, you know, get to know Evie a little better..." Callum's hand slid on top of Mel's. She retreated. "How about...no! What were you thinking, anyway? Do
you really think I'm the sort of person who would want to get to know you?" "Well, I think you are different than want you want everyone to think you are." "So what do you want now?" Mel sighed. "I need your help again. I've got a plan." Tag CK *Evie, if you were reading, was CK's non de plume when they were in disguise. You know, the red wig? Mel uses that name for her 'fun' side. Callum Armour <Callum_Armour@hotmail.com> wrote: Callum sat in the laundry room of the New Hawaii hotel naked, the door locked. In the dryer were his only clothes. The same clothes hed stolen from Top Shop after hed woken up from his coma and before dragging Mel around
the ship. Callum thought about Mel, she annoyed him. He never liked emos anyway and she defiantly needed to loosen up a little. But for some reason, when she was around he felt
comfortable. He hadnt revealed it to any of the team but since waking up he had constantly felt scared and uncertain. It had been a matter of weeks and he was no closer to finding out who he was. Sure he knew what hed done in the past but he knew deep down that he was a new person
He was desperate to know who. He knew that the cheerful and cheeky front hed put up for the others wasnt real; he also knew that something was wrong. He had defiantly become more stable though, no violent mood
swings at least. And as he took his clothes out of the drier he and dressed, he decided to go visit Mel
Setting himself the challenge of making his new friend smile. A few miniutes later he approached the hotel room door. Pausing a moment before knocking to wipe some tears away and covering his look of pain and confusion with the cheeky smile that people were more accustomed to. Then he knocked on the door and waited
