This is not a war story.  Its just a short bit of silliness I came up
                             with trying to kill some time at my sister's
eigth grade graduation.                                   The Forever Knight
bunch aren't mine, The Sci-fi Channel and
                                   the Cartoon Network aren't mine, and the
guys that invade Toronto                           aren't mine either, but I
won't say who they are just yet, it would                                ruin
the surprise.  Copyright 1997 Rachel Carroll  Enjoy!  (I hope
                                      I didn't leave any factions out.)
                                                 
                                    
Invaded(1/1)


      Strange things were happening in Toronto.  It was not the
                                  work of a war, oh no, that was happening in
an alternate universe,                               plus the title didn't
begin with a WAR heading.

      Ever since the Sci-fi Channel's satallite had crashed into the
                              Cartoon Network's satallite, there had been
occurances of little                                  voices under tables,
strange flute music, and random acts of                             kindness.
 No one knew what to make of it.

      Except LaCroix.  He'd been around too long to not recognize
                                  the little blue devils when he saw them.
 It was like some alien movie.                       They'd been invaded.
 They'd been conquered.

      They'd been Smurfed.

      Everyone in Toronto (regardless of what season they appeared in)
                        was shocked by the revelation and reacted in their
own characteristic way.

      Natalie brought one to the lab to study, convinced she could cure
                              it of its 'Smurfiness'.

      Nick sat with one in his loft, angsting at it.

      Jannete calmly tolerated them at the Raven while pointedly
                           ignoring their requests for Smurfberry juice.

      Schanke took one out to lunch with him and force-fed it
                                 Souvlaki until it puked.

      Tracy spent a long time convincing herself she wasn't crazy
                                and then proceeded to see Smurfs "under every
rock."

      Vachon took one for a motorcycle ride only to find that the
                                    light little fellow had fallen off
somewhere back on Bay Street.                              Oops...

      Cohen was strangely unfluttered.

      Reese just yelled a lot about how there were not going to be
                                   any 'little blue psycho cartoons' loose on
his watch.

      Screed thought they were giant blue rats come to avenge their
                        brothers and took off for Vancouver.

      Urs pleaded with them to not make the same mistake she had,
                         even though they had no idea what she was talking
about.

      Divia lured a few in with her child-like appearance and then
                                 ate them.

      Sidney also ate one.

      Perry ate Sidney.

      The Caddy came to life and ran over Perry.

      And LaCroix finally had the answer to that one, constant,
                                       ever-important question:  If you choke
a Smurf, what color does it turn?


*Fine*

PS-Now that the cat, er, Smurf, is out of the bag, I guess this could be 
considered a Smurf-crossover by technical standards, but who cares about
technicalities, really?  This could never really happen....Or could it?
