(We open with Mike driving into the MonkeeCave in Ursula. He hops out, looking wary.)

Ursula: Michael, I still don't know why you're worried.

Mike: Ever since Lauren told him he couldn't keep his chemistry set in the garage, I've been afraid of what I'm gonna find here. I'm surprised everything's still in one piece.

Ursula: At least it's not in the garage anymore.

Mike: Yeah, but Urse, we NEED this place!

*Suddenly the sound of an explosion almost shakes the entire cave.*

Mike: (Groans; he almost lands on Ursula) Damn it!

Ursula: Oh, dear. He's at it again.

Mike: MIIICK!

Micy: *calls out* ...Mike?

Mike: (Coughs as smoke drifts through the cave) Mick, you ok? (He makes his way through the smoke to Micky's voice) What the heck was THAT?

Micky: *swats at the air* I'm fine. That was just a little something I've been working on. Yes, that WAS what it's supposed to do.

Mike: Swell. Should I ask what it's for? (Swats the smoke; Ursula lifts her top and fans it)

Micky: You'll find out when I'm ready to reveal it.

Mike: Where's Dave? Messin' with horses?

Micky: Yeah, but he should show anytime.

Mike: How much did you blow up?

Micky: Nothing blew up. At least, nothing major.

Ursula: So, Micky, what's going on?

Mike: Other than you're back to making explosions.

Micky: *shrugs* Not much really going on, for me at least.

Mike: Actually, I'm glad you wanted us here. We need to talk about the other day and Pete's announcement.

Ursula: (Sighs) So, he really did quit.

Micky: Unfortunately.

Mike: The writin' was on the wall, Urse. We all knew he ain't been happy with the group for a while now.

Ursula: Still, what will happen to your band...and to the Guardians...now?

Mike: We'll go on, Urse. We're still the same, even without Pete.

Ursula: No, you're not. You need each other.

Micky: We have to, Urse. We're better off as a trio, at least, than not being together.

Mike: Urse, it's gonna be ok. We're doin' fine as a trio. We're gonna do the special with Pete. It's part of our contracts. But we'll do the next album as a trio, and we'll be a trio on the Canadian tour, too. (Grins at Micky) And that Canadian tour should be pretty darn good!

Micky: *nods* I can't wait to go on that tour! It's gonna be great!

Ursula: Your powers work better when you're working as a unit.

Mike: Urse, quit worryin'! See? (Concetrates; the keys to Ursula appear in a dark blue light) It still works!

Micky: Yeah! Besides, we can't really force him to rejoin us.

Ursula: Still...

*There's a sudden black light, followed with an overly exagerated "awww!"*

Alex: *grins, folding his arms as the light fades* I think I'm gonna cry.

Micky: Alex!

Ursula: Alex, what are YOU doing here?

Mike: Alex, I'm gonna make this simple, before Mick turns on the security system. Leave.

Alex: Pffft. Where's the fun in leaving when I just GOT here? ;)

Micky: I'll give you fun!

Mike: (Looks at Micky, then grins at Alex) Go ahead, Alex. Make Micky's day.

Alex: *glances at Micky* I'd love to.

Micky: *eyes narrow* Gross.

Alex: *smirks* Hey, new chemistry set!

Mike: Yeah, so what?

Alex: I love a good chemistry set!

Ursula: Alex, don't get any ideas. That belongs to Micky.

Alex: Too late.

Mike: Don't you have a hundred chemistry sets of your own back in Arizona?

Alex: Yeah, but this one's new.

Ursula: Then go buy one of your own. Ask my sister for money.

Alex: Playing with someone else's is more fun.

Mike: How many times do we have to tell you to stay away from our shit?

Alex: Until I listen, which I never will.

Ursula: I, for one, have had quite enough of you. (Ursula raises her trunk; a small slingshot-like device pops out) Maybe THIS will change your mind! (Ursula flings what looks like a blob of blue magic at Alex's head!)

*When the light clears, Alex wears a white gown, wings, and a halo! He screams.*

Mike: (Laughs) Looks like someone walked into the wrong fanfic.

Ursula: You look lovely in white.

Mike: (Plucks Alex by the wings) Ok, you jerk, maybe THIS will convince you to leave us alone for now? (Smirks) Micky knows this really groovy angel he could send after you.

Ursula: (Sets up another blue ball in her slingshot) Or do you want a little more? I could always revert you to childhood. (Audible smirk) Micky, go get him!

*Micky yells and launches himself at Alex, who promptly disappears in a black light.*

Mike: Chicken.

Ursula: I really wish he'd stop showing up unnannounced like that.

Mike: He must be bored.

Ursula: He needs to think of better ways to relieve boredm. Micky, are you ok?

Micky: *aggrevated sigh* Yeah, I'm okay. He just knows how to push my buttons.

(Davy walks in as Mike helps Micky to his feet.)

Davy: Did I miss something?

Mike: Nothin' important, Davy.

Micky: Definitely not important.

(Davy frowns as Mike, Micky, and Ursula laugh and we fade out.)
