The poor delivery man nearly died on the spot. Have my prayers been answered?!
Hardly daring to believe what he thought was his good luck, he quickly looked at the form again. "Er...extra anchovies and onions..."
Oh, God, WHAT IF THEY DON'T LIKE ANCHOVIES AND ONIONS???!!!
Yana was surprised. "Size? Um..." He looked at his feet. "...Okay, I haven't the slightest clue. Uh, maybe a four? Five? I'm just pulling out random guesses here." He looked at Gene. "Hey, you said I reminded you of someone? Who was it? Maybe I know him or something."
He mentally slapped himself as soon as he said it. You idiot! You don't even remember your own name, how are you supposed to know who their talking about?
"I can't believe it. I think Alex is actually buying it. No, he hasn't taken it yet...Misty is looking on with skepticism, like always...whoever in the backround said "she needs to get laid" will get punishment detail when I get back. Oh, quit your whining!...No, I don't know what Yana is doing, I don't have x-ray vision...I told you already, that didn't happen. Stop bringing it up."

.................................
"BLECK..." The Poor Delivery man probably DID die on the spot after that. "Now I KNOW we didn't order it. I like Pepporoni Pizza and Misty is a fan of Cheese. Nobody I can imagine in this house likes Anchovies and Onions." He shook his head. "Good sir. I don't know WHO sent you that order, but he obviously doesn't live in this house." He pointed down the street, "It might've been my neighbor, I swear I don't know WHAT goes through his head at times..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"That isn't important." Rosaline answered before Gene could. "Anyways let's see here... Gene you're a size twelve right?"
He nodded. "Me and Gantz both. Why?" He thought a moment. "Oh right." He put his foot next to Yana's to compare the size... "Hmmmm... Let's see."

The delivery man knew he had three options:
1. Keep up the ruse and get his @^!T kicked.
2. Tell Gantz he's a lair and get his @^!T kicked.
3. Seduce him...and get his @^!T kicked for being creepy.
Yeaaaah no. He went with Plan Awesome: Death By Fire.
AKA shove the box into Gantz's hands anyway and run off screaming like a little girl.
"Remind me to give him punishment detail when he gets back. Coward. You would THINK he'd think up something...whoever is playing the pornographic music in the background gets P. detail with that idiot too. No, I don't know if she did and I don't care. Thank you for the mental images. Really.
Yana looked at Rose, concerned. Not important? What does she mean by--ah, I'll ask later.
Yana's foot seemed around 11. "Okay, that clears that up...hey, Gene, are you Gantz's brother or something? I mean, you look a lot alike...

Gantz held on to the pizza box a moment, looking at it a moment......... He looked to Misty... After a second, she shrugged... Gantz himself shrugged and tossed the pizza box into a nearby garbage can. "Onions and anchovies... Ugh..." He walked off. "What a waste of a perfectly good pizza..."
Letting out a grunt, Misty got up and walked back inside. "Might as well get used to it. There's a lot of idiots in this world... ... I wonder what that guy's problem was though..." Gantz shrugged.
--------------------------------------------
Back in the lab, Gene had opened his closet and had pulled out a few shoe boxes. "Are we brothers?" He chuckled a bit. "Well... Technically yeah we are." He found a specific box with the number 11 under the size. "To be specific, I'm actually a clone of Gantz created in a lab. I was made to be faster, stronger, and smarter..." Chuckling a little more he gave the box to Yana, whom opened it up to see a pair of black shoes with white streaks. "Turned out I only got the latter third. He was still the stronger out of the two of us."
"Despite that though, Gene has an amazing intellect. Where Gantz is powerful in magic, Gene is powerful in technology. These two are quite the combination." Came Lilia in an attempt to better explain. "The two look at each other as brothers due to such."

"Raleigh here. What's going on?...What are you talking about? I was at the Industrial Park all day, I haven't contacted anyone...YES, I'm sure...Exactly what has been going on in my absence? Pizza delivery? What...that's a terrible idea, why would I...oh, no. Please tell me you aren't serious...Give me their number. NOW. And whoever's been impersonating me to do some idiotic prank or whatever it is WILL be punished as appropriate."
As Yana put on the shoes (they fit, unsurprisingly) he looked up at Lilia. "Clones? Why would anyone want to do that? And you're not kidding about the tech, the place looks loaded!" He held out a hand to her. "By the way, I don't think we've been properly introduced, what did you say your name wa--"
He stopped. "Waiiiiiit a minute." He looked at Lilia more closely. "...Hope you don't mind me asking, miss, but have I seen you somewhere before? I mean, you seem kinda..."
"Wilhelm, you have some explaining to do."
"Why isn't the brat here yet?!"
"Are you telling me you impersonated me and preformed this idiotic prank out of sheer impatience?!"
"Their fault for not showing up on time."
"Mr. Strahl, I did not give them a time limit. There is no need for them to arrive at the station immediately."
"You have any idea how boring it is standing here watching nothing but old Lady Gaga videos?"
"They actually show those at--don't distract me. Sending them a package of murderous, thieving swans disguised as a pizza delivery is NOT a way to relieve your boredom."
"Well, did they take it anyway? Just tell me that."
"Alex threw it away."
"..."
"Strahl? Are you there?"
"Well, they're f8cked."
"What do you mean?"
"Those were Newman's swans."
"...the money for the impeding damages is coming out of your paycheck."
"WHAT?!"
"Now if you'll EXCUSE me, I need to make a call to the mansion before there are any casualties."
"Don't you hang up on--"
Click!
"Dammiiiiit."

Lilia looked a bit surprised at the attention...
"Now do you understand why I hate my father? He's turned me into a freak, just like him..."
"I guess I can understand that... But still, he IS your dad."
"Well... I can assure you we've never met..." Lilia quickly said, pushing the memory aside. "But the name's Lilia. I'm Gene's girlfriend, and a specially trained monster hunter."
--------------------------------------------------------
As Gantz and Misty walked in, they were greeted by Tarosuke, whom had been looking out the window. "Who was that?"
Shrugging a second after, Gantz groaned. "Said he was a Pizza Delivery guy... But I'm not sure... Nobody ordered a pizza right?"
A frown more then answered Gantz's question. "You know damn well I can't stand processed Italian food." He shrugged. "And considering everybody else in this house I can't imagine who would order a pizza."
"What about a pizza?" Appearing from upstairs, Metal Sonic appeared, walking down the steps. "What's up?"
Shrugging, Gantz motioned outside. "Some guy came up swearing we ordered a pizza." Metal rubbed his metallic chin at this. "I know, weird right?"
"Very weird indeed..."

Yana frowned. She had said that a little TOO quickly...he brushed it aside; he could ask later. He stood up and checked his new shoes. "Well, they seem okay. Thanks. I'll repay you later, obviously, so no need to worry about that..." his voice trailed off. When one of the others asked what was wrong, he mumbled, "Dunno, but I feel kinda...I dunno, fuzzy..."
"Operator."
"I need to call the Gantz Estate. It's urgent."
"How urgent?"
"About "Evil swans causing mass chaos" urgent."
"That's pretty urgent."
"Will you just connect me to the estate already?"
"Please hold."
(Elevator music)
"Stupid dial-up."
A loud DING! came from one of the computers, along with a voice saying "You'v got mail!", startling everyone in the room.
Meanwhile, the phone downstairs started to ring at the same time the doorbell did.

At the sound of the E-Mail notification, Gene looked to the computer. "The hell?" Gene looked to the computer screen. "Leviathan, answer that please."
Leviathan floated in onto the screen and looked to the E-Mail notification. "This is weird..." she muttered as she tapped the icon, opening up the E-Mail application.
-------------------------------------------
Downstairs, the group jumped a bit, before turning to the phone. At the same time there came a knock at the door. "The hell?" Tarosuke remarked, looking to the phone. "The phone AND the door? What are the chances?"
Shrugging, Metal walked to the phone. "Gantz you get the door, I got the phone."
"Right." Gantz nodded, walking to the front door.
With Metal, he picked the phone off the reciever. "Hello, Mr. Gun's residence?"

The e-mail said only one thing.
Brace yourselves.
Yana looked confused. "Wait, what does--"
Meanwhile downstairs, As soon as Gantz grabbed the doorknob, Raleigh's voice was heard yelling VERY loudly from the phone.
"DON'T OPEN THE DOOR YOU---"
As soon as the door opened, what appeared to be a horde of extremely angry swans wearing mafia outfits poured through the door en masse, knocking Gantz over and nearly trampling him.
"I told him not to open the door."
A loud shriek from downstairs caused them all to jump. "What the heck was that?!" Yana asked. Without bothering to wait for an answer, he ran out of the room to investigate.

"?!?!?!? BWAAAH-!!!!" Gantz was floored by the plethora of birds before he had a chance to properly absorb what had hit him. "OW-OW-OW-OW-OW!!!" He wanted so much to cast a barrier spell on himself to protect himself from the feathers and beaks, but it was coming so fast he couldn't properly focus.
With Metal, whom had dropped the phone in surprise at the yell, he looked to the door when he heard the loud chirps-er-squawks-er-quacks... Well, WHATEVER swans do to make noise. "H-HEY!!!!!!" Metal was usually a very logical being, very intelligent. But at that moment, all that mattered was protecting the house... Which was why his right arm turned into that of a machine gun, and he opened fire into the air above the downed Gantz.
With Misty and Tarosuke, they looked on with... Well, what could be best considered as WTF faces. "Are... Are those... Swans?" Taro offhanded looking VERY confused.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in the kitchen, Red could be seen licking a lolipop. Ever since she moved into the estate with Gantz and the others, the young man made it a point to make sure she was as happy as possible during her stay. Often, he was called out for spoiling Red, but hey, the little girl didn't mind; made her feel right at home in fact. And thus she continued enjoying her candy, licking at the strawberry pop...
She suddenly heard the gunfire from the parlor...
Jumping, Red looked in that direction, looking both surprised and greatly afraid; what was going on?!? Popping the Lolipop in her mouth, she rushed to the parlor, pulling out her infamous toothy buzz-saw like sword.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
From upstairs, Gene, Lilia and Rosaline were equally surprised. "What-... What the hell is that?!?!?!?" Gene yelled in an exasperated tone.
"That sounds like Metal's gun! And... Do I hear ducks down there?" Lilia looked just as confused as Gene did.
Before she could say much of anything, Rosaline saw Yana rushing down the steps. "Y-Yana!!! Wait for me!!!!"

"Well, THIS stinks...no, they can handle it...mention that again and you're fired."
Yana nearly fell over himself as he ran down the stairs. Whatever the noise was, he didn't care--he had to make sure the others were all right.
As soon as he arrived at the front hall, however, he saw the strangest thing he had seen that day: What appeared to be a posse of mafia swans were trampling and assaulting Gantz, while a weird spiky robot was firing a machine gun at them (and did I mention that the bullets, for whatever reason, were MISSING?!)
As soon as he hit the last step, the swans immediately stopped what they were doing and looked up at him. Nothing happened after a split second, then one of the swans (having stolen Gantz's sunglasses and hat and was currently wearing them) pointed at him with a wing and hissed. The other birds followed suit.
"Ah, HECK no--" Yana turned and ran back up the stairs with the swan posse in pursuit, grabbing Rosaline as she met him on the stairs and dragging her behind him. "GO GO GO GO GO!!!!"
Meanwhile, Raleigh's voice continued to issue from the phone. "Hello? Anyone there? Did the swans get you all? This isn't shaping up to be that great of a day, is it..."
Yana (Still dragging Rose) nearly ran into Gene and Lilia on the landing. "NO TIME TO EXPLAIN GIANT BIRDS GOOOOOO!!!" Yana ran right past them without stopping, heading down the hallway and turning the corner.

Gantz slowly peeled himself off the floor, yeowching under his breath. "JESUS DUDE, ARE YOU OKAY?!?" Tarosuke's concerned look couldn't have been any better voiced.
Groaning, he pushed himself to his feet. "A little chewed up, but I'll be fine..." A second later, he managed a healing spell, fixing up his bruises, and brushed off the feathers. "Where the hell did the swans go?!"
Metal quickly pointed his gun to the nearby stairs. "They started chasing this one guy and Rose up the steps-"
"R-ROSE?!?!?" That REALLY got Gantz's attention. "Well come on!! Let's go!!!" He and the others turned to go...
However, Misty, whom was the last one up, suddenly heard the voice from the phone... ..............
A thought struck her...
Walking to the phone she picked up the dropped speaking piece.
"... Who is this?" She sounded a bit peeved.
A little after, Red ran into the parlor, but quickly found nothing happening... Clearly confused, she looked around a moment, before she heard a sound from upstairs. Deciding to check it out, she quickly ran up, her cloak almost giving the illusion that she was flying up.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"?!?!?!? YIKE-!!!" Rosaline was indeed dragged behind Yana, but managed to see the swans coming. "What... Are those-?!?!?!?"
"SWANS?!?!?!?" Lilia and Gene quickly ducked back into Gene's room as they zoomed past. "The-the hell's going on?!?!?!?!"

There was a loud coughing noise from the phone, then the voice answered again--only that it was the voice of a woman.
"Ahem, yes, is this the lady of the house?"
"GOGOGOGOGOGOGAH!"
Yana slipped and landed square on his backside, knocking over Rose is the process. "Owwww..."
"HOOOOOONK!!!"
"What the--" Yana looked up to see that the swan that had stolen Gantz's hat and sunglasses was bearing down upon Rose like an angry typhoon. "HEY!"
He proceeded to get up and kicked the swan off of her. Unfortunately, this left him open to be tackled by the REST of the swans, knocking him through the nearest door.
(It's still Raleigh on the phone, just with a different voice so that Misty can't recognize him...yet. She will in due time.)

.... For a moment, Misty raised an eyebrow at the voice. ".... Yeah, no... You can call me the Bodyguard of the house. Now who are you and why are you calling?"
-----------------------------------------------------
Upstairs, the rest of the group arrived just in time to find Yana being mauled by the Swans. "Yike!! Hang on Yana we're com-" He couldn't finish before Red zoomed past him, "Ing?"
Growling ferally, Red roared at the swans, swinging her buzz-saw blade back and forth, looking like a red-wearing demon-child.

"This is Lady Alda Wamve, Head of the Department of Research at Crystal Room LMT. I understand that one of our...employees has sent a shipment of malicous swans at your residence. We apologize for this inconvenience and will pay for any resulting damages. Are the birds still active, by the way?"
To say that Red totaled the birds would be the equivalent of saying that Dark Star Haze was a 'little' naughty.
As Yana staggered back to his feet, he saw Red absolutely mauling the birds, causing feathers to fly everywhere. The swans squawked in terror at the sight of the cloaked child, scrambling over each other to get out the windows and doors.
Aaaand of COURSE the kid can fight, he thought dully.
Wait, WHO GIVES A KID A CHAINSAW?!
His train of thought was interrupted as one of the swans dove right into Red's back, knocking her to the ground.
"Oh, NO you--" He ran forward and elbowed the swan, knocking it out the window in the process, then turned and yelled, "Red, are you--"
He was interrupted by another swan dealting him a fierce peck on the head, leaving a large gash. "OW!!!" He swat the bird aside, kicked another out of the way, then turned and knelt next to Red. "Red, are you okay?!"
(Sorry for injuring the girl. She's okay. Mostly.)
