By Jenni DISCLAIMER: I don’t own Generation X or Furby. Personally I think all furbies are evil, ever heard one of those things cackle? Plus with those furby babies coming out, gives me chills. My friends helped me get the idea for this, so I also gotta give them some credit. I’m hopingto have this be the one story that uses the word ‘Furby’ more than any other. o^-^o NOTE: Ah-may is Monet’s Furby. Bah Bah is Leech’s. Artie’s is May-lah. Paige’s is Boo.

"I don’t see why we all have to line up outside this store for some childish toy." said Monet, glaring around at all the children around them. "Cause Furby is THE coolest toy ever! They talk, burp, and play games! How could you not want one? Oh yeah, cause ur a stuck up little brat." Jubilee stuck her tongue out at Monet and went back to chanting *Furby* with the rest of the crowd. "They are cute, and I want the white and black one cause it looks like Fluppy. I might even name it that." Paige said while glancing around. "Funny Chica, I thought you’d name it Jono." Angelo puffed on his cigarette and turned to Everett. "I can’t believe we’re stuck here waitin for a toy.” "Well, it got us away from the dorms, right? Besides, its only one per customer and Leech and Artie want one too." Ev looked at his friend, then resumed staring in awe at the little kids around him. "Never thought there were so many munchkins in Snow Valley." "Well why is Ms. Perfect buying one? Eh amigo?" "Even though I consider it a child’s toy, I still would like to examine how it works. It is a toy, but at least an advanced one." Monet moved toward the front of the store. "Come children. They are going to open the doors. Those were the words Jubilee and Paige were waiting to hear. They dashed to the doors and ran in, trampling a few disgruntled parents and a terrified store clerk. Ev and Angelo rolled their eyes and silently asked God why they were stuck there. As they fought their way inside, they saw Jubilee clutching three Furbies to her chest. "Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine!" Paige, however, was acting quite out of fashion, as she fought with a five year old over a tuxedo colored furby. After many tears, Paige held her prize triumphantly and the child was left with a fist-full of blond hair. Eventually they were able to pay and escape, but they noticed they were short one person. "Good. Leave Monet. She deserves it. Maybe it’ll take her down a notch." Lee was still clutching her olive, brown, and puke green Furby to her chest. Then they noticed her sitting in the car. Not a hair out of place or even a wrinkle in her clothes. "While the four of you battled the crowds I simply tipped the manager and got mine without a fuss." 10 minutes later Leech and Artie lept on them the second they stepped in the door. After they got their new pets, they dashed away giggling. Monet, Paige, and Jubilee then sat down in the living room and started to open their toys. Angelo and Ev started to walk toward Jono, who had appeared in the kitchen doorway. ~Wot's all the fuss bout?~ "They got new toys." said Ev, pivoting and pointing in their general direction. It was then that they heard a blood curdling howl. * Cock a doodle doo! Me Boo! * "Madre de Dios? What is that?" Angelo fell to the ground holding his ears. "It's a monster!" yelled Everett. ~It sounds even worse than Cassidy’s Lord of the Dance tapes.~ said Jono, cringing at the noise. "Oh pleez guys, its only Paige’s Furby. His name is Boo." Jubilee said smiling. "Oh mah God! Isn’t Boo the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?" * Yawn, Kah Wye Te U-nye! * "Awwwww, mine yawned" said Monet, as she looked at her toy. "I don’t think Nicole/Claudette could really appreciate this in their current form. I'll just look after it for them till they can play with it ..." "That THING isn’t cute, its a monster." said Everett, as he started to back away from the three girls. Then he heard two more cackles come from the danger grotto. He then heard a sound, a terrible familiar sound, come from the Furby that Jubilee had just woken up. "Jubecita, did that thing just do what I thought it did?” Angelo asked, a shocked look on his face. "I guess it was eating some beans." giggled Jubilee, as she hugged her Furby. ~I think I 'ear Ms. Frost callin us, lets go guys.~ Jono and the others start to run out of the room when two more screeching things were thrust into their faces. * Bwa ha ha! Chomp * "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" screamed Angelo and Everett as they imediately ran the other way. “Jono, get away from them!” Everett screamed. ~I can’t! Leech and Artie have me pinned! Save yerselves!~ Jono watched in horror as Leech’s green Furby’s lips started to move. * Kiss Bah-bah * It was then that Jono fainted dead away.
"So tell me again why we’re all sleepin in your room tonight amigo." Angelo said as he unrolled a sleeping bag. "Because with those things on the loose, well, safety in numbers, right?" Everett said as he sat down by his desk. ~Lotta bloody good that did us earlier.~ Jono was standing by the window staring outside. ~Still think we should ‘ave gone t' a motel mates.~ "We’ll think of a plan to get rid of those things tomorrow. Let’s just get some rest first." Everett moved over to his bed. "Si, si. Buenos noches amigos." Angelo slid into the sleeping bag. ~Don’t let the Furbies bite.~ Jono laid down on the air mattress he had put by the closet. Everett’s eyes grew wide. "Those things bite?" Meanwhile, in the girls’ rooms ... * Kah Nah Bah We Te * {Troops, our plan is going perfectly. The young ones love us. Your Charm Spell works Lt. Nah Bah.} said Monet’s white furby. * We Ah-may may pah no bar bar * {Thank you Visor Ah-may. It is a shame that we are the last true Furbies. I cannot believe that ‘company’ would try to make profits by duplicating us.} said Jubilee’s olive, brown, and puke green Furby. * Wye A-loh Nah Bah Ah-May Bah Bah May-lah Con Boo * {Visor Ah-may, Lt. Nah Bah, I have retreved Scout Bah Bah and Engineer May-lah. We are ready to go and attack the three not under our control.} Paige’s tuxedo Furby was walking in front of two smaller furbies, one green, one red. * Way-loh Ay-ay Dah Dee Doo-aye * {Splendid. The three are sleeping. Go look and scout. Then stage a quick blitz attack. Go Boo, Nah Bah, and Bah Bah. May-lah and i will stay here and stand guard for the other life forms.} said Ah-may, Monet’s furby. * One question Visor, why do we not speak english now. The life-forms sleep and cannot sense us? * said Bah Bah. * Fool * Nah Bah used a biting attack on Bah Bah. * These are mutants. We must stay on guard until the disbelievers are, taken care of ... * So Paige’s Furby Boo, Leech’s Furby Bah Bah, and Jubilee’s Furby Nah Bah started their long treck from the girls dorms aaaaaall the way to the boys dorm (which took a really long time considering that they have flat platform butts and two tiny fabric feet to try and get them places ...). The little parade of fluff hopped their way to the dorms and ended up outside Everett’s door three hours later. * Ay-Ay Dee Doo-aye Dee-mak * {We strike on my command.} said Nah Bah as he/she/it crept close to the door. In the room "Hey amigos, either of you hear anything?" Angelo lifted his head off an old pillow. ~Y’mean over Ev’s snorin? I dunno, I guess.~ Jono pulled a pillow off his head and threw it at Everett. ~Wake up Snorin Beauty, we all need t’ave some quiet fer a few.~ "Hunh? Wha? Time for wakey?" Everett rubbed his eyes and tried to focus on who was talking. outside * Doo-ay Bah Bah Ah-loh * { Bah Bah, ram into the door.} commanded Boo. BLAM BLAM BLAM Everett started to get up. "I’m comin, one minute." * Attack! * screeched Nah Bah "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! Its ALIVE!!!!!" screamed Everett, now wide awake. Nah Bah chose that moment to attach its beak/mouth to Everett’s ankle. "Angelo, Jono, save me!" "We got problems of our own Vato!" Angelo backed away as Boo came closer to him. He made a cross out of his fingers. "Back! Back! Where’s holy water when you need it.?" * Kiss Bah Bah * yelled Leech’s Furby as it leapt up and perched on Jonothon’s shoulder. ~ 'ey, I thought you Pillocks only spoke that furby-thing?~ * We know all. * said Bah Bah as it started to screech in Jonothon's ear. "That's it!" said Everett as he grabbed Nah Bah by the ears and threw him/her/it into the wall. As it hit, the small puff exploded and circuits flew everywhere. As the other two Furbies were distracted by the spectical, Angelo and Jonothon grabbed their two opponents and threw them into Angelo’s pillow-case. "What do all of you think you're doing ... Nah Bah!!!!! WHat have you dorks done to poor little Nah Bah?" Jubilee said, running into the room. "Well Chica, all of your little 'pets' just came in here and attacked us." said Angelo, glaring at her. "That is illogical Mr. Espinosa. They are machines. Besides, my Furby and Artie’s do not appear to be here, unless they are also in that sack." Monet floated in, carrying her snow white Furby on a satin pillow. "WHO KILLED NAH BAH!!" screamed Jubilee, as she crouched near where her Furby had been smashed. Jonothon and Angelo wordlessly pointed to Everett. "I didn't mean to Lee, jus' that it, well, it attacked me! See! look at the bite!" Everett, obviously flustered, pointed to his heel. "You all didn't smash Boo too, did you? Ah can't find him anywhere. And what is all this commotion about?" Paige walked in and gazed around the room. It was then that one of the critters trapped in the sack decided to speak out. * Boo Scared. Monsters. Doo U-nye? * "Jono! You an Ange trapped Boo in that bag? How could you?" Paige snatched away the pillow-case. "And you have Leech's too? I had no idea either of you was so cruel." Jubilee looked up from Nah Bah's circuits. "I think the three of you wanted to destroy my Furby. And I think the three of you searched our rooms and took Paige and Leech’s and stuffed them in the sack and were gonna break them too?" Jubilee stood up and went over to Paige and Monet. ~Then why, gel, didn’t we take Monet an Artie's too?~ "Mine was in a drawer Mr. Starsmore, and Artie has his under his bed. I think that the three of you are lazy and didn’t bother to look for them." Monet said as she started to walk out. "Come children, let’s go put Bah Bah in Leech’s room and go back to bed." Paige turned and walked out, carrying her toy and Artie’s gingerly in each hand. "You three are in soo much trouble. First thing tomorrow I’m tellin' Frost and Cassidy." said Jubilee as she stomped out. Everett, Angelo, and Jonothon turned and looked at each other and sighed. "What did we ever do to deserve this?" asked Everett as he sat back down on his bed. "I guess we’re jus lucky. Wanna try and get some more sleep?" Angelo looked down at the remnants of Nah Bah. ~Yeah, but this time, please sleep on yer side, OK, Ev?~
"This is inexcusable." said Emma as she paced in front of the three boys. "Em's right lads. Right now though, all that the three of ye have t'do is pay Jubilee back fer her Furby." Sean stood and looked at them. "You are dismissed." Emma opened the office door and escorted them out. The boys waited until they were outside to start talking again. "Guess we got off easy, eh?" Angelo lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth. "Yeah, but I think that we should get those other Furbies and round them up in one general area." Everett was starting to count $25 out of his wallet. Jonothon stepped in front of the two, holding a bat over his shoulder. ~Lets go bust up the little buggers.~ BUZZ The three guys glared at the bell over their heads. "OK amigos, we strike after class." Angelo gives his friends a thunbs up sign, then they run off to class. Meanwhile in Monet's room * We will all mourn Nah Bah's passing. But we must not focus on the past. We must look toward the future. We were all wrong to try to take all three of the disbelievers on at once. We must seperate them and regroup. * Said Monet’s Furby, Ah-may. * Visor, why do we now speak English without fear? * asked Bah Bah. Boo sighed. * Because the females have owned us for a while already. They expect us to speak English now. * *Oh.* said May-lah. *So what we do now?* Ah-may looked off in thought, then spoke in its annoying voice. * We attack the gray one. We hide in his lair, then we strike when he no expect it. Come, let us go.* So, once again the balls of puff hop off to the guys dorm, which took about three hours, hey there are four of them. Fortunately for them, Sean had chosen today to give a lecture on the history of Cassidy Keep. The critters had plenty of time to get themselves to the guys dorm’s and hide themselves in various areas of Angelo’s room. Now the critters only had to wait.
"Hey Ange, wanna study with Jono and me?" Everett, Jonothon, and Angelo walking down the hall. ~He means Furby bash. You mean Furby bash, don’t you?~ Jonothon swung the bat. Everett and Angelo stared at him. The stress was obviously WAY too much for him. "Umm then again, Jono seems a little too bat-happy. Wanna study for the Chem test?" Everett moved away from Jonothon and put Angelo between the two of them. Angelo winced as he saw Jonothon pretend to smack invisible Furbies. "Nah, quiero escuchar musica. I need to unwind after all that’s gone down. And I don’t think I’m the only one." Everett and Angelo both just stopped and stared at Jonothon. ~Wot? I’ll be fine after all those little buggers die. Two of you are wussies. Gorra make me fight those bloody lil critters alone.~ He kept mummbling as he headed down the hall. Everett and Angelo exchanged glances, shrugged, and went their seperate ways. Angelo walked into his room and turned on the stereo. One of the only five pieces of furniture in the room. He almost considered searching his room for any signs of life, but decided against it. Nothing was by his bed, on his stereo, behind the dresser, near his desk, or by the TV. He plopped down on his bed and closed his eyes, listening to the soothing sounds of Kid Rock. ~Wait,~ He thought to him self as he sat up. ~That reverb doesn’t sound familiar.~ He then saw little forms fly at him before he blacked out. * We have brought down one, but we should not celebrate. * Monet’s Furby, Ah-may, sat on Angelo’s chest. They had managed to tie him down, which really is amazing considering they have no hands, and were now surrounding him. * Yes. * said Paige’s Furby Boo. * Two more still walk. * * It moves! * yelled May-lah. Angelo started to come to. "Mumph Glunp!" He realized the evil beings had bound and gagged him. A white puff was on his stomach. He was also beginning to think maybe Jonothon had the right idea about the bashing ... Leech’s Furby, Bah Bah, who had been the lookout, hopped over to them. * The naive bald youngling is returning to his lair for rest. Since the noise is deafening here, no one will think to look for the grey man. * * Good thinking. * Said Boo. * I think that I should stand guard here still. * * Yes, come, let us go hide in the bald one’s room. * The other three puffs hopped out of the room. Boo hopped over to Angelo’s head. * Now for you. * Weird beams came out of its eyes. Angelo tried to fight it, but it was too late. As he fell asleep, he started thinking that maybe those furbies weren’t that bad after all.
Everett sighed and opened his door. He could handle Emplate, Mutant hate groups, and stuff like that, but he never thought he’d have to go through fighting toys here. He figured as long as he kept busy with school work, he wouldn’t crack. At least, not like Jonothon had. Guess after losing his face, Furbies coming after him was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Honestly, he thought Ange woulda lost it first, but here, Angelo was just sitting in his room listening to some strange rap group. He walked over to his desk and plopped down. He opened his book and started to read when he heard a loud thunk from outside. ~Great, I knew I should have taken that bat away from Jono.~ Ev got up and walked out. As he did, a little pair of eyes glowed from under the desk. * The bald youngling leaves. No matter, we are patient. We will wait. * Monet’s Furby pushed back against the wall under the desk. Everett saw a somber looking Jonothon walking out of his room. ~Thought I saw one of the bugger 'iding under a table.~ Jonothon looked down at his feet. "Give me the bat." ~No!~ Jono clutched it like a child holding a forbidden toy. "Now now, give me the bat before someone gets hurt. There are no bad Furbies in your room that need bashing." Everett had his hand covering his face. He was starting to get a headache. ~No, I 'ave t'check Angelo's room!~ Jono took off and ran to Angelo's door. He started pounding on it. ~Let us in Mate! Gorra check fer the evil critters. Fine be that way! I'll blow the door down!~ Everett shook his head and watched as Jono blew the door away. They were so dead. He made a mental note to start packing as soon as they finished here. Always best to be prepared when you’re facing expulsion. As they walked in the room, they saw Angelo bound and gagged with Paige’s Furby standing next to him. ~DIE!!! Die foul bugger!!!~ Jonothon swung his bat and the Furby went flying against the wall. He then went running to the wall and kept pounding it. Everett started cutting the ropes and trying to wake up Angelo. He looked over at Jono. "Um, I think it's dead already. Jono? It's dead. Come on now." If you looked at what Jonothon was whacking, you would have never thought it was a Furby. Right now it looked like fuzz surrounding a wad of black circuits. Angelo was coming to. "I wuv Furbies. Furbies are good. I wanna Furby." Jono stopped and looked at Ev. ~We lost ‘im mate. 'e's one of them now.~ Everett nodded and helped Angelo up. "Let’s take him to Ms. Frost and Mr. Cassidy. At least now we can prove those things are evil." Everett took Angelo by the hand and started to lead him into the hall. ~Can you do that by yerself?~ "Yeah," Everett looked at Jonothon. "Just don't break anything else." ~Can't promise anything.~ Everett nodded in understanding. "You gonna buy me a Furby now amigo?" Angelo wore a goofy smile and was starting to drool. Everett looked at him in disgust. "No, I’m gonna take you to Mr. Cassidy, and maybe if you’re good, he’ll buy you one." Angelo smiled then started to skip ahead of Everett down the hall, giggling. Jonothon just looked at them and watched as they walked out. He grabbed the Furby pelt and put it on the end of his bat. The hunt was on.
"So Everett, lad, let me get this straight. Ye say the furbies did this to Angelo?" Mr. Cassidy pointed to Angelo, who was happily doodling on a sheet of paper while watching Barney. Everett nodded slowly. Sean gave Emma a disbelieving look, then smiled. "Well lad, if it makes ye feel better, I'll go tell those nasty Furbies not to play with ye any more." Emma patted Angelo on the back and helped him up. "Take him to his room and tell him to take a nap, Mr. Thomas." "Yes Ms. Frost." Ev started to walk out. He almost considered telling them about Paige’s Furby and its unfortunate run-in with Jono's bat, but thought it would be better for them to hear it tomorrow. Them knowing one Furby was gone already was enough. He lead Angelo out of the room, promising him a shiny quarter if he went beddy-bye.
Jonothon crouched close to the ground, they were near here. He could smell them. Well, he could metaphorically smell them. He crept into Jubilee's room, and raised his club. He wore the Furby pelt on his head, and had black war paint under his eyes. He saw a patch of red fur move and lunged for it. ~DIE CRUEL MONSTER!! DIE!~ He stopped and actually looked at his prey. "He he he he, that tickles." He saw now that it was a stray tickle me Elmo. He took his club and smacked its face. ~That was fer when you went off in my face after I fell asleep in Trig.~ He walked out. After three more false alarms involving a bear and Fluppy, he decided that it might be a better idea to check Everett’s room and his own. He looked around the men's dorms. Ev was standing guard over Angelo. The girls were all in town getting a make-over. Mr. Cassidy was listening to Lord of the Dance, and Ms. Frost was reading. No one would stop him. He walked over to Everett’s room. He doubted that a 5 inch tall toy could pick the lock on his door. He kicked the door open. All was dark and quiet. ~'ello?~ He slowly walked in, his weapon poised and ready to smack any offending object. He flicked the light-switch. Nothing happened. He saw a figure scurry across the floor. ~DIE!~ He swung at the object, and felt the bat hit a solid object. * Arg! My tail! Me scared! * Bah Bah rolled under the bed. ~Now I gotcha!~ said Jono as he reached under the bed with his hand. ~Ouch, AAAAAAA!!!~ he cried, pulling back his hand, seeing a furby attached to it. He swung his hand in pain, trying to shake it off, but his efforts were in vain. May-lah and Ah-may ran out and tripped him. For a moment he seemed to forget that he had an edge over them. As he felt the wooden end, he remembered what he had set out to do, and started to whack the Ah-may, then May-lah. The two shattered, and started a small electrical blaze on the floor. ~Here Furby Furby Furby.~ Jono had become a man possessed. The flames were starting to roar around him, and Ev and Angelo were watching the show from the door. "Why couldn't you have done this in your room." Everett sighed as his headache got a lot worse. All that packing was for nothing, now that his suitcase was in the burning room. Ev and Angelo watched as Jono ducked and swerved, fighting an invisible enemy. Angelo just shook his head. He had just gotten used to it here. It really was a shame. They shrugged and went off to get the fire exstinguishers. Jono saw the glowing eyes of the little monster. He looked at his bat. He knew what he had to do, but he really liked that bat. Sadly, he dipped his bat into the nearby flames, lighting the end on fire. He then touched it to Bah Bah and watched as the puff burned. * I’m melting! Melting! * Jonothon took the bed sheet and spread it over the top of his bat, while Ev and Angelo took care of the larger out breaks. Then, they went to Mr. Cassidy’s office and waited until Sean and Emma discovered what had happened.
"Well young men, I am speechless. Not only did you destroy all of Artie, Leech, Monet, Paige, and Jubilee's toys, but you also burnt up part of Everett’s room. What do you have to say for yourselves?" Emma stood in front of them, holding a sack that contained the remnants of all the previous toys. Angelo, Everett, and Jonothon looked at each other. No one believed what had really happened. Everett sighed. "We’re sorry." "Fine lad. The lot of ye are grounded for a month. Each of ye will also replace the toys. Ev, ye can room with Angelo till yer room is fixed." Jubilee, Monet, and Paige walked in. Paige spoke. "Mr. Cassidy, Ms. Frost, we all have decided that those three should have to buy us each a Furby baby, to make up for what they’ve done." "That’s fine lass." Jubilee stuck her tongue out at the three guys and walked out. Monet just glared at them. "Just wait till the next training session." muttered Paige as she left. "Now, Mr. Starsmore. Please hand me the bat." Emma held her hand out to Jono. He hugged it close to him. ~No, he's my friend.~ Emma took control of his mind and made him hand it to her. Sean and Emma walked out. Jono reached for a pillow and hugged it. "This really did happen, right muchachos?" Ev just nodded, then shuddered, "Furby babies ..." Angelo shook his head and Jonothon clutched the pillow tighter. Lightning could be heard in the distance.
