Half-Blood,
Half-Baked.

(Previously:
In the middle of... some forest, you know the one, HARRY POTTER, RON
WEASLY, and HERMOINE... GRANGER? IS THAT RIGHT? I THINK IT'S GRANGER.
MIGHT BE SPELLED WITH AN "I", THOUGH... searched diligently for the
HALF-BLOOD PRINCE, prophesied to hold a mighty treasure trove of old
essay papers for sale. Instead, our heroes encountered a young man
named TRUNKS, an amazing boy from twenty years in the future,
determined to save his world by changing the past. After beating him to
death, the trio from Hogwarts has resolved to toss his dead body on the
beach, but a new figure has arrived, one with very different ideas in
mind...)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince(s)
by M. P. Smith*
In fabulous SCRIPT-O-VISION
PART TWO: If This
Crown Be Soggy!
NAMOR: By Neptune's Trident!
Who
dares
intrude upon the borders of proud Atlantis?! What wretched manner of
landwalker thinks he can pollute the oceans with his misdeeds, without
drawing the incandescent
ire of Namor The First, the One True
Sub-Mariner!?
HERMOINE: You already
said
all that a minute ago, dumbass. Get to the point.
NAMOR:
Aye, air-breather, and now I have said it again, so that those who had
read the last part of this story shall continue on, their memories
refreshed of what has transpired previously! Now speak, child, lest you
incur the naked wrath of the Savage Sub-Mariner!
HARRY: Yeah,
speaking of naked, what's up with the little green undies, anyway? You
look like Mr. Spock and Robin the Boy Wonder had a gay love child, and
he fell down the gay tree and hit all the especially gay braches on the
way down. Gay.
NAMOR: You
dare? You
dare to question the
birthright and heterosexuality of the Prince of Seas? You, who skulk
through the night like a band of theives, dragging your drunken friend
here so he might throw up in my domain?
HARRY: (looks down at Trunks) Drunk?
Criminy, mate, he ain't drunk. He's dead. (kicks the body a little to
demonstrate).
TRUNKS: N-not yet. Still...
barely... clinging to ... life--
HERMOINE:
(beats him again with magic
wand to finish him off) Right. He's dead,
and we were gonna toss him in the drink to cover the evidence. So how
about it, are you going to turn us in or what? Because anything's
better than standing around here freezing my bum off while you float
around up their in your knickers.
NAMOR: Nay, landling, for I
now recognize that boy, and my royal memory now remembers that I hate
his dad. Seriously, he's like totally a rip-off of me. The hair and
everything. I mean, it's pathetic. Nonetheless, I forbid thee to
dispose of his corpse in my oceans, and command that you find some
other place to put him. Like the dark void of outer space. I don't run
any of that, so it's cool with me.
HERMOINE: You bloody ponce,
how do you expect us to shoot him into outer space? Listen, all I'm
interested in is finding this blasted half-blood prince, so I can buy a
term paper from him and pass my lit class.
RON: Wait, Hermoine! Don't you
see, we've already found him!
HERMOINE:
What? I thought we left you back at campus, hanging from a flagpole by
your underwear. Wait, no, that was the dream I had last night. I just
hate when that happens. But anyway, what the hell are you talking
about?
RON: That's Namor, the
Sub-Mariner, and as the Official
Handbook of the Marvel Universe (1986 edition) clearly states, he's the
son of an Atlanean princess and a human sea captain!
HERMOINE:
What, so he's a comic book guy? First anime and now this? If I'd known
this whole countryside were infested with nerds, I never would have
left Belarus. What's next, the robot from "The Black Hole"?
HARRY: You're from Belarus
originally?
HERMOINE: Yeah, say it real
loud, why don't you, so the international court can hear. (mumbles)
"Oh,
sure,
Miss Granger, once the rebel encampment is destroyed, we'll make sure
no one prosecutes you for war crimes." Next time you need a merc, feel
free to shove off...
RON: So please, Your Majesty,
if you'll only show us your stock of copied homework, we'll make our
purchase and be on our way.
NAMOR: By the Swirling
Sargasso! You seek
me
as an accomplice in your dishonorable plot? Be warned, whelp, for
though you may know much of the Sub-Mariner's secret origin and his
first meeting with the X-Men in the early 1960's, you gravely
underestimate the integrity of the scion of Atlantis!
RON: But the engraving said...
HERMOINE:
Oh, give it a rest, Opie, he's not gonna help us. What, you think he's
carrying ten pages of power writing about Chaucer in his speedo? Let's
just get out of here while he's still got
some clothes on.
HARRY: Yeah, Aquaman's cooler
anyway.
NAMOR: WHAT?!
HERMOINE: Oh, great, now he's
gonna talk again.
NAMOR:
By Neptune's Trident! My noble outrage towards the men of the surface
world has become legendary, and yet never has my patience been tried
such as it has by the likes of you three wretches! Such indignities are
not to be borne! Not even the brutish Hulk has ever spoken to me with
such flagrant disrespect! Me, a sovreign Prince of the Blood!
RON: You mean Prince of the
Half-Blood,
don't you?
(Namor glares furiously at Ron, then
punches the living daylights out of him)
RON: Aiiiiieeeeeee!
(sails off into the horizon)
NAMOR: IMPERIUS REX!
(he flies after Ron to give pursuit,
leaving Hermoine and Harry alone on the beach)
HARRY: (rubs his hands together) Hey, all
right, now I'm free to make my move...
HERMOINE: Shut
up.
That nude elf finally did us a favor, and you're ruining the moment.
Now let's get out of here before anymore upbeat redheaded boys start
tagging along with us.
HARRY: But what about your
assignment?
HERMOINE:
I'll figure something else out. Might try heading back to the
dorm and
fake my roommate's suicide. Yeah, then I'd pass the whole semester,
and I might get the Yakuza off my
back for a few more years...
HARRY: (kicks Trunks' dead body again) And
what about--?
HERMOINE: Who
cares?
Let's just go already!
(She leaves, and Harry hurries to
catch up to her.)
(Several hours later...)
TEELA:
And that's why I'll never go out with you, Adam. Now, as to why you'll
never cut it as a warrior-- Wait a centon, what's that on the surf over
there?
PRINCE ADAM: By the
Scorceress, Teela! It appears to be a
dead body! Judging from his purple hair and cheap clothing, I'd say he
must have been a drug addict who overdosed and wandered out here to
die.
CRINGER: Rrrrr I don't think we
should get involved, with this. We should go back to the castle, Adam.
TEELA:
Don't be absurd, Cringer. We have to report this to the authorities.
I'll just call 911 and the three of us will stand right here, together,
until the police arrive. Yes, that's the best course of action, none of
us letting each other out of their sight. It can't miss.
PRINCE
ADAM: Uh... say, Teela, that reminds me. You're adopted, and
your birth
parents called me a few days ago to tell me they were coming over to
visit you... uh, right now. Yeah, they said they know you're busy and
everything, so if you weren't there when they showed up, they'd just
leave and never bother you again. Something along those lines. I wrote
it down when they said it, but I lost the note.
TEELA: What? Holy... Adam, you
stay here, I'll be
right back!
(she runs off, leaving Adam and
Cringer alone)
CRINGER: Rrrrrwas that such a
good idea, Adam? Now what'll you do the next time you need to get rid
of her?
ADAM:
Look, I couldn't just keep telling her I had to use the bathroom. You
say that too many times in one day and people start to think there's
something wrong with you. Besides, this dead body won't investigate
himself! And I'm afraid Prince Adam and his faithful companion Cringer
won't be able to do that, either.
CRINGER: Rrrrrwhat about
Batman?
ADAM: (holding aloft his magic
sword) No time, old friend.
BY THE POWER OF GREYSKULL!

*Disclaimer:
The author, while attempting to tide over the anxious public by
providing a bootleg Harry Potter Novel months before the release of the
real thing, has absolutely no idea what he's doing, and has conducted
no reasearch into the characters whatsoever, save for noticing that one
ad for the movie where Hermoine totally hauls off and decks some other
kid. Credit where it's due, that was actually pretty awesome. Void
