Scenes From An Elevator: An Idiotic Utena Spamfic By: Dreiser EPISODE ONE: The Sudden Stop. SCENE: A nondescript elevator at Ohtori Academy where the shadows of Arisugawa Juri, Kaoru Miki, and Kiryuu Touga are seen riding inside of it. TOUGA: (Over dramatically.) If the egg's shell does not break the chick will die without being born. We are the chick the egg is the world. If the world's shell does not break, we will die without being born. Break the world's shell! ALL: For the revelo--umph! (The speech abruptly ends when the elevator suddenly stops and they go toppling over one another.) JURI: What... (She strains to keep her icy veneer but it's hard as Miki's head is in her chest.) Just happened? (She looks down at Miki and growls.) Get out of there! (Miki abruptly pulls his head from the hold of Juri's chest and flies backwards from the force of the suction to land in Touga's lap who smiles lasciviously.) TOUGA: (Seductively). Hello Miki... (Miki gives an abrupt squeak and leaps off of Touga's lap to huddle in the far corner to the elevator. Touga observes this and chuckles. He then focuses his attention on Juri.) I believe the elevator has stopped. JURI: Why would the elevator stop? TOUGA: (Shrugs.) How should I know? Am I in charge of maintenance? JURI: (Eyes narrow.) Actually, as Student Council President the maintenance of this school does fall under your the realm of responsibilities. TOUGA: Damn. I thought that was part of End of the World's duties. JURI: Nope. They have mysterious things to do, like ordering us to fight in lame ass duels. TOUGA: Ah. MIKI: (Pipes up.) Makes sense! JURI: (Looks out the elevator's metal frame.) It appears that we're trapped in here. TOUGA: So it does. (Slyly.) Unless you'd like to try breaking out of the elevator and sending for help? JURI: (Dryly.) Do I look stupid? That's a hundred foot drop. TOUGA: (Sighs.) Where's Saionji when you need him? MIKI: (Pipes up.) Why doesn't Saionji ever come to our Council meetings anyway? JURI: I'm not sure... Touga? TOUGA: Because he lost the key to the elevator. (A long pause as Juri and Miki sweatdrop.) MIKI: So why didn't you get him another one? TOUGA: (Sniffs.) I'm not in charge of keys. That's maintenance. I'm not in charge of maintenance. JURI: (Erupts.) Yes you are! You just don't like doing it because it gets you dirty! TOUGA: (Looks wounded.) That is not the reason. I don't like maintenance because it's menial labor. JURI: That's the same thing! TOUGA: Is not. JURI: Is too. TOUGA: Not JURI: Too. TOUGA. Not. JURI: Too. (This continues on until the pair are out of the breath and heaving on the floor of the elevator. Miki observes them with a large sweatdrop on the side of his head.) MIKI: Hey... I just thought of something. Do you suppose that End of the World is responsible for this? JURI: (Heaving.) Maybe... TOUGA: (Instantly recovers and sits up.) Nonsense. End of the World would have sent us a letter if they were going to stop the elevator and trap us inside. (Miki and Juri sweatdrop at this). MIKI: (Coughs.) I don't think we should even try explaining this to him, do you? JURI: (Shakes her head sadly.) I agree. TOUGA: (Continues on.) Yes! End of the World would have definitely told me of their plans to incapacitate my power by trapping me in this elevator! How could they not?! (Touga continues to babble on as the scene fades to black.) To be continued... All characters in this spamfiction are from Utena. This is a nonsensical out of character piece of tripe that I wrote when extremely bored. I shall continue to write this series when I'm extremely bored because sometimes I just don't feel like making the effort to write things in story format. And yes, this was partially inspired by DDFA's Waiting For Minako series.

Thrilling trailer line: What will happen next week?! Will Juri, Miki, and Touga still be trapped in the elevator?! Is End of the World behind this?! Did they send letters about the elevator stopping but lazy postal workers lost them?! With the other Student Council members gone will Saionji go mad with power?! Stay tuned!
