Brie: We have a lot of waiters and waitresses working here after school and in the summertime.
Rooster: Apparently people wanted to eat healthier by making their own favorite food taste better we just want your opinion,Jade. *Jade swallowed her food*
Jade: The lunch you prepared it's not bad...This is a great idea! If a customer ask for a request the next time they want to order something for any reason just make sure the customer is satisfied with the taste.
Brie: That's true the customer's always right. *the waiter place the guest check onto the table where Jade is finishing her lunch.*

Jade: I heard you did help out with the catering.
Rooster: That's right,Jade we did.
Brie: We've got license to catered thanks to the State Department of Health.
Rooster: We do mostly the food for weddings,birthdays,anniversaries and high school reunions.
Brie: We don't do high school proms and funerals.
Jade: *?*That's wonderful!

Brie: Well we did the food well except for the wedding cake in which I'm not good at but at least Premier Patisserie and Cafe help out.
Jade: Wait Premier Patisserie and Cafe? That's in Blackpool,England,UK.
Rooster: Actually there's one right here...In fact that pastry company is extending their business a month ago when the owner from Blackpool told us.
Jade's mind: Too bad the owner didn't mention that part to Bolt and Ann when they're around. *her padphone beeps*
Jade: *as she looks at the message from ACME* Oh terrific...*to Brie and Rooster*Thanks for the lunch *and she paid the amount based on the check and a tip for the waiter* I truly appreciated. *grab her purse and padphone and leave.*

Waiter: Did that customer just left?
Rooster: She really left a tip for you.
Waiter: That's good to hear... *as he grab the check and the money with the tip Jade left for him.*Thank goodness!

Arthur: Thank you,Mrs. Tagg!
Johnny: Uh mom,did you order tea?
Wanda: No I didn't,Johnny!
Johnny: Well someone place a cup of tea and I wonder why?
Arthur: I don't know whoever is here...It's probably it's complimentary!


Emma: *as the C-5 appears so did Jade she reads a note* Let the one who drinks this tea shall see thee. *Arthur drinks the tea and feels ? already when he's about to see Emma.*
Jade's mind: Oh no,Arthur he must have drunk something. *Arthur walk to Emma.* Emma,I should've known.

Wally: *disguise as a lobbyist* Oh no,not again! *and then he bumped into Jade.*
Jade: Going somewhere?
Wally: Yeah,getting outer here! *as he ran Jade follow him*
Jade: Stop you fiend.
Wally: Emma! Emma! Retreat! *Emma laughed with Arthur*
Arthur: Who's that?
Emma: Just a friend...*as Wally grab her* Bye!
Arthur: Emma,wait! *Until Jade uses a whistle onto his ears and ?* What the...Jade!
Jade: No more love on the run,Arthur! (remember that part of the lyrics to Billy Ocean's Caribbean Queen I don't own the song or part of the lyrics whatsoever)

Arthur: What? Wait a minute what just happened to me all of the sudden?
Jade: Were you drinking something?
Arthur: Tea,why?
Johnny: *as he shows with his parents and the envelope* There you are,Arthur here you left this behind.
Arthur: Oh thank you,Johnny! I've almost forgot about that.

No directions to a wedding chapel like the Chapel of the Bells? That name sounds familiar...but why?
Archie: That's just it,Miss Ezell I won't be able to see her walk down the aisle I hope Darlene doesn't make her wear her wedding dress when she marries my brother-in-law and...

Jade: *interrupted* That's it,I've figure Darlene never makes her wear her wedding dress.
Archie: And why not,Miss Ezell?
Jade: Remember when a wedding dress was stolen from a bridal salon in Roanoke,Virginia.
Archie: Yes,why?
Jade: Darlene wants Katelyn to make her wear that stolen dress to the wedding unless Katelyn is fat and ugly.

Archie: Say no more,Miss Ezell I think we're getting close to solving this case. *the phone rings...to Jade* Hold on a minute! *pick up the phone.* Archie Pelago...What?!?!

Jade: I'll go right now!

Cole: * ?*Gotcha!
Jason: Is there anything else you know,Mr.Legal? *Maylee and Jessie saw a clue...Maylee use the evidence bag and Jessie use the tweezers to pick it up from the welcome mat.*

Tyson: Sounds like a great idea.
Jason: Now wait a minute should've we need a strategy first?

Jack: Hmph! More like a piece of garbage to me like Katelyn is.
Darlene: Jack,you know better than that in front of your future wife.
Jack: Darlene,she's still an ugly duckling after what that Italian Countess did to her she's no swan at all...*Emma came out in a little black dress he whistled at her* Wow! Now that's a lady.
Darlene: Don't bother Emma,Jack she will completely fall in love with the poor boy...Sorry dear Emma I like you to meet my stepdaughter and her fiance.

Emma: Really,so this is your stepdaughter,Darlene. *Darlene shook her head 'yes'* Pathetic! *Katelyn ? when Wally hears the sounds of a car...look through the peephole and he gasped.*
Wally: Darlene,take the elevator and head for the back door I'll take care of the 'guests'.*Darlene took Katelyn and Jack to the elevator.* Emma,drag him to the next room I'll make him drink later.

*Emma gagged Johnny again with a handkerchief and dragged him to the next room*

Entering Banger's club dressing in their own club wear are Chase,Stewart and Lee...
Lee: *?*Weird the door's already open.
Chase: We better take precaution,warrants ready?
Stewart: Ready and willing...*as he,Chase and Lee gasped as a big cage dropped in onto them*
Lee: What the...*Medeva laughed out loud as she appeared by magic.*
Medeva: We've got you in the cage too bad you're not going backstage. *laughed out loud as Wally shows up.*
Wally: Well a trio of invaders from the law enforcement wanna try to shut down my club,huh? Didn't think so.* as he snapped his fingers and three men dressed as they were in the hip-hop business appears.* Search'em.
Lee: *as Wally opens the cage and his three men enter the cage.* Yikes! Looks like our undercover just got blown.

Before I go on the next chapter I'm struggling with something to get this story right and it'll be a happy ending in the epilogue after all so all of you wait a little longer.

P.S. There's a reason why read my post in Quarantine.

*Johnny ?*
Lars: *to Emma* Don't mind him he's just...* the girls from downstairs screaming as Spooky phase through the wall when Emma is about to scream Lars covered her mouth* Don't worry I'll talk to this ghost you just checked on your friends downstairs,okay! *Emma nodded 'yes' and head downstairs*

Lars: Listen here,pal I'm in love with that girl she's gorgeous...
Spooky: Oh I'm sorry to break up the romance that fast...Let's be pals!
Lars: Okay! *Thanks to Spooky's joy buzzer he screamed and then all of the sudden...?* Whoa! What just happened?
Spooky: Medeva's love spell wore off. *Lars slapped his forehead*
Lars: Oh no Carmen wants me and Moe to look for her...*to Spooky* do you know where that witch went?
Spooky: She's not here! *Lars ??*
Moe: *as he returns and yelled* WHAT!?!?!
Spooky: I'm telling ya,boys! That witch isn't here.
Lars: And Darlene?!?!
Spooky: Not there...why you ask?
Moe: Our boss has something of hers taken away.

Jade: Our friends just apprehended him *Spencer found the ring box from Palace Galore.*
Katelyn: Darlene will find out what you all are...
Jade: *interrupted* No she won't and she doesn't need to.
Katelyn: Unless I'm fat?
Jade: Maybe? *as she saw Casper and his uncles (the Ghostly Trio) coming* Then again maybe not.


Forty-Five minutes later...

Maylee: Jack was about to escape to Quito with a list of foods from Japan to Ireland and be export there to the black market all over the world.

I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂
