Captain Muscles and the Amazons: Amazon Attack

[Race's Girl]

Chapter 16 – Normality

Life on Spectrum was back to what it usually was, lively, with the laughter and the chatter of Roger and Potsie. The base suited it much better than the morbid atmosphere that had enveloped it only a week before. Anyone that didn’t know what had happened would never have guessed that anything bad had occurred. The only difference was that the whole team was having a party for the fifth time since Spectrum had begun; they were having a well earned break.

Howard and Fonzie were lazily enjoying the cool water of the swimming pool when laughter erupted from the direction of the lounge. The two of them looked at each other and silently agreed to investigate, how dare anybody have fun without them being the cause of it? They quickly made there way to the lounge where to their horror they found Marion, Al, Chachi and Joanie in fits of laughter, only Jennifer wasn’t laughing as you would expect but even she was hard pressed not to join in by the look on her face. The cause of the fun was found to be Potsie, Roger, Fonzie and the Spectrum jukebox.

“Hey, Fonz, I’ve just found a pretty cool song, do you want to hear it?” asked Potsie innocently.

Fonzie looked suspiciously at Potsie, what could be so cool about a new tune on the jukebox? Before he had chance to ask however, Potsie dropped a quarter inside with a grin directed at Fonzie. Fonzie listened to the tune and thought it sounded vaguely familiar but he didn’t recognize it until Potsie and Roger started to sing along with the record.

Wop wop wop, wop wop adada dada
Wop wop wop, wop wop adada dada
Wop wop wop, wop wop adada dada
Wop wop wop, wop wop adada dada

The lounge was filled with laughter as everyone watched Fonzie look at Potsie in shock, eventually, he started to laugh along with them he had finally been caught out and become the victim of a joke.

“That was good you know, Pots,” he finally admitted before turning to Howard. “Did you and Marion deliberately dance like two 16 year olds because of that song?” He asked him with a mock glare.

This remark earned Fonzie a laugh this time and red cheeks from Howard who mumbled something about how he had never heard of the song before now.

“And now its Chachi’s turn.” declared Potsie.

“No way, you're not picking on me, Mr Tough Guy.” he yelled at Potsie in horror as he ran from the room with his hands over his ears.

“Go on, Pots, let's hear it.” pleaded Fonzie, eager to not be the only one of the same family in Spectrum.

“Well, Fonz, that’s the thing we can’t think of one for Chachi but we’ll just let him believe that we do, so that we can see him run off like that.” explained Potsie.

“Oh that’s nasty.” exclaimed Joanie.

“We could kick his butt if you prefer.” pointed out Marion.

“Okay, I’ll admit he deserves it but don’t pick on him for too long.” said Joanie with a smile.

Roger surveyed the team as they teased each other good naturedly and sighed, everyone was alive, well and having fun, what else could he possibly ask for except some peace and quiet maybe.
