"Hey Nancy," Micky called waving from the couch. "Hey girls. How was house hunting?"
"House hunting went great." Nancy said. "We got a great mansion. Tennis court. Cement pond." She nodded.
"Sounds cool." Micky said.
"Yeah, and if you believe that I have beachfront property in Arizona too." Nancy laughed.
"What?" Micky asked.
"Country song." Nancy waved it off. "Nevermind."
"But you did managed to find a place for us right?" Desy asked.
The girls sat down.
"We found a pretty okay one. At least we think so." Nancy said. "We can take you over to see it later or tomorrow if you wanna."
"That'd be a better idea. Go over tomorrow. We'll have time to go see if we pass anymore on the way over." Tippy added.
"Great." Desy said. She yawned. "I'm a little tired right now."
"Me too." Jean said. "I think I will go swimming though. The water is invigorating."
"Nancy." Micky said to her. "Can we talk?"
"Okay." Nancy said. She looked at Tippy who shrugged at her. She had settled down and read a TV guide.
"Let's go for a walk ok?"
"Great." Micky said. He took her hand.
Nancy tried her darnest to keep from giggling. He let her lead her out.
Peter, Davy and Mike looked at each other.
"Let's practice that new song." Mike said. "The one that one of the girls gave us."
"Sure, mate, what else have we got to do?" Davy asked picking us his tambourine.
"I wanna play drums!" Rose jumped up and down, like Peter would.
"I dunno, Rosie, would Micky like that?" Mike asked.
"She has no choice." Davy said. "He's gone with Nancy."
"Walking to the tunnel of looooveee." Rose said.
"They're on the beach." Mike pointed.
"Work with me?" Rose said.
"You know what I mean and I think you do..."
She smiled.
"Yeah." Mike said.
Davy nodded.
"What does she mean?" Peter asked.
Mike hit him with his hat.
They stated tooling around with their instruments.
Desy wrapped herself up in a blanket and sank into the bed. She was suddenly so exhausted. She didn’t know what had come over her. It was like the sleep had washed over her.
The two aliens stood outside the window. "Honestly, couldn’t we have waited till the others have left the house?" The first one said.
"No we couldn’t." The second one said. "Do you wanna stick around and see that English one go skinny dipping again?"
The first one gave no answer.
"See? Well we could have stuck around to see if any of the girls would..."
"Hey!" The first one said. "I don't need the image of anymore nude Monkees or otherwise floating in my head."
"All right." The second one said. "She's falling asleep. Even starting to have a dream."
"What’s it about?" First one asked.
"Hmm." The second one said. "I dunno. Man these earth people are weird."
Desy saw colors swirl around her. She felt like she was spinning. She was standing on a platform in the middle of a room. The lights flashed on and off. It was like a disco club. She finally stopped. She looked down at her feet. She was wearing sparkly roller skates. She looked all around her. She was in a disco club. Apparently she was in some musical, but she didn’t know what.
"Of all the musicals, I couldn’t dream myself into Newsies? And Christian Bale?" She thought as she saw the lights turn on.
The lights turned on. The room was decorated like a psychadelic disco skating place. She saw all of her friendz and the Monkees in her dream.
Nancy was skating hand and hand with Micky. Tippy was sitting at a table with Peter. Rose was at a bar drinking some glowing drink. She couldn’t see Mike.
She started to sing, then she knew what musical she was in. "Xanadu."
She sang like an angel. She skated around the room with the rest of her friends and the club goers.
Mike came up from behind and picked her up. She could see herself in the mirror ball. She was wearing a white blue and white pantsuit, while Mike was wearing his outfit from the Star Collector Romp.
Suddenly the scene changed. They were no longer in the skating area.
Mike set Desy down on a multi-colored dance floor, one much like the one in Saturday Night Fever. The music seemed even louder here.
"I took too much cough syrup once, and had dream like this." Connie said.
"Freak out city." Tiff said.
There was a knock at the door. Metty got up and got the door.
"Metty!" Alex said.
"Alex?" Metty asked. "Where have you been?"
"What do you mean where have I been?" Alex said. "I got on the wrong plane coming here. It crashed and I ended up on the survivor thing. I just got voted off."
] "Hey guys." Metty said. "This is my friend Alex. This is the group. You'll be new to most of them."
"Hi." Tiffany said. "I'm Tiff, and this is Linds, and Connie."
"I'm Alex." Alex said. "I flew out here for a couple of weeks on vacation. Course now that the plane thing happened its a little shorter. Whassup?"
"I hate that phrase." Linds said. "Sit down. It just might take the rest of the vacation to explain whats going down!"
Desy still floated in her dream world.
She was dancing like John Travolta while Nancy was on the beach with Micky.
"So what do you want to talk about?" Nancy asked.
"I wanted to get you alone like this for a while." Micky said.
"Oooh Mick." Nancy said. "Not like that."
Micky laughed. "It seems like you are staying for a while."
"I hope so. I really love it here." Nancy said. "It may not be real but its real to me, down in here." She touched her heart.
"I wanted to ask you something." Micky said.
"Me too." Nancy said. "In fact I wanted to say something to you."
"Okay, you go first." Micky said looking relieved.
"Great." Nancy said. "This has nothing to do with anything but having met you, well it makes me wanna sing." She turned to the house. "Hit it boys!"
"Hey!" She heard Rose.
"And Rose!"
They started playing a song that Nancy had told them about.
She started singing out on the sand.
She smiled and looked at Micky.
"You're not gonna take my job away from me, are you girl," He joked.
Nancy laughed. "I don't think you have anything to worry about."
Dream World -
Desy sat down at a table.
They had been magically transported to a 50's style soda shop, like in Grease.
She was dressed up in a cheerleader uniform, pigtails and all. She could see herself in the reflected walls.
She groaned. "Nancy and her stupid movie referances! Remind me to get her for this when I wake up!" She said as she rested.
Desy shared a soda with Mike. Nancy bopped around on the dance floor. It looked more she was having a seizure than actual dance steps. Desy laughed as Micky copied her. Peter worked behind the counter and Davy tried to deliver a heavy tray of sodas and snacks. Tippy and Jean and Rose couldn’t wait so they grabbed the snacks and went back to their seats.
Desy fidgeted in her seat. Suddenly she had the weird need to go to the bathroom. It was only weird cause she was in a dream. Oh well.
"I'll be back." Desy said.
The set went dark. There was cold silence. She looked around. "Guys?" She asked.
She started getting scared.
"Okay Des, wake up!"
She turned as she heard footsteps walking toward her. "Oh my gosh." she said.
The two aliens rushed her and grabbed her.
Micky and Nancy came back to the house after she finished singing.
Jean had come back from swimming. She went off to change.
"I guess I'm not that bad a singer." Nancy blushed.
"And you did the song without fainting." Micky laughed.
"Okay, its official, no one mentions the fainting anymore ok?" Nancy laughed.
"Consider it done." Micky said.
"Let's go out to dinner." Mike said.
"Cool." Rose said leaving Micky’s drum kit.
Jean went to get her jacket.
"Let me get Desy." Tippy said.
"Okay." Nancy said. "Where are we having dinner?"
"Anywhere’s good." Davy said.
"Great." Peter said hopping up on stair railing.
Tippy screamed.
She then ran down the stairs almost knocking Peter off his post.
"Guys!!!" She said running to where everyone was gathered.
"Whats wrong?" Mike asked.
Tippy tried to breathe. "Breathe, one two three."
"I can hear you breathe..." Nancy and Rose sang.
Tippy glared at the two. Nancy stuck her tongue out.
"Desy!!! She’s GONE!!!!" Tippy said.
In the Real World The girls collectively gasped.
"Wow, who expected that?" Metty asked.
"Eh." Linds said. "Had to happen."
"Why do you say that," Connie asked.
"Don't you guys read TV Guides?" Linds said holding one up.
On to Part Twelve!
