“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, if I see you within three feet of Aelita you are dead. You are worse than dead. You are chopped up pieces of little dead…pieces. Do you understand?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd…you really should change your voicemail you know, Jer’s still ticked off at it. Anyway, this is Yumi in case you haven’t guessed already and I have to ask, what did you do to Jer? He turned bright red, which is easy for him since he’s pale, but still! Does this have something to do with Aelita?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, Jeremie found out what we were planning for April Fools. He doesn’t seem accepting of us kissing, I don’t know why you said it’d be hilarious, but that is how Jeremie is. Please don’t incite him anymore. And one last thing, why do you call me Princess?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Hey Oddball, its Ulrich, Jer’s on a warpath, searching for you. He seems to think you’ve imposed upon Aelita’s purity or innocence or some other such thing. What’d you do now? Oh, and if you see Claire anytime soon? Avoid her. She found out about your uh…date…with Elise. Later.”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“ODD DELLA ROBBIA if I ever see your face again, especially anywhere near me after dating Elise and me on the same day I will not hesitate to make sure there are no future Odd’s to populate the world with! Do you understand me?"

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, it’s Dad, you remember that talk we had a few days ago? About your grades? Principal Delmas just called again to say that you’ve been slipping again. You better shape up soon son or you’ll be kicked out. Apart from that your sister had a wonderful birthday and loved the Eiffel tower you sent her…hold on, your mother wants to talk to you. Odd? Honey? Oh, it’s just his voicemail! Anyway dear, I…”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, its Mom again, now Honey, I understand your individuality and all – I still say you get it from your father – Sure, blame me – but that voicemail message…It has to go Honey. Saving the world? Princesses? Have you finally found yourself a girl then? Oh, got to run love, the ham’s almost charred and you know how your father hates charred ham…Love you Honey, and give Ulrich a hug for me! Bye now!”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, its Ulrich again, where are you? Jer’s head almost blew up when you and Aelita walked into the cafeteria holding hands and kissing. You almost had me fooled. You aren’t really serious about her, are you? I mean, you would have told me if you were, right? Right?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“That’s it Odd, you’re dead. You are officially Odd teriyaki, as soon as I find you that is. Worst April Fools prank ever and I can’t believe you dragged Aelita into it too! Why can’t you ever be normal for once?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Hello Odd, its Elise. I ran into Claire a few minutes ago…I can’t believe you would use us like that! Your name is so blacklisted at this school!”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Hello Odd, it’s Aelita! Jeremie didn’t seem to take the prank as expected…He’s really mad Odd. Don’t go near him for awhile. I’ll try and calm him down. On the other hand, have you seen Ulrich? Yumi keeps asking for him. Bye Odd!”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, it’s Yumi, listen I don’t know what you were thinking with Aelita, I don’t know what she was thinking either, but we’ve agreed that….well, movie night probably isn’t the best tonight. No offense but I don’t want to clean up your bloody corpse from my living room. And, also, forget what Aelita said earlier. I don’t care about where Ulrich is. Really. Especially if he’s still with Emily.”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, save me. Sissi has followed me around all day. Every time I tell her to get lost she thought it was an April Fools trick. Do you think if I told her yes I’ll go out with her she’ll still think it’s a prank? No…I guess I couldn’t get that lucky, could I? See you back in the dorm I guess. Later.”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, its Yumi, Xana’s launched another attack and no one knows where you are. We really need you, even if Jer is behaving childishly. Come on Odd, you know you want to. Meet us at the factory stat.”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

Beep.

“Odd, its Jeremie, I can’t believe you didn’t show up for the mission this afternoon! This just proves how insane you are. And unreliable! What was so important you missed fighting Xana?”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

“Hey Odd, it’s Ulrich again. I don’t know where you are still…give me a call, okay? Hopefully Elise and Claire haven’t found and murdered you yet. I’ll leave the dorm key in the usual spot since I know you forgot yours. I’m heading out to practice now. Later.”

“Yo, yo, yo, you’ve reached the Great and All Powerful Odd! Stop laughing Ulrich! I am currently saving the world – most likely destroying it – I said shut-up Ulrich – so leave me a message or what-not and I’ll return it as soon as the Princess is safe!”

“Odd? It’s Aelita, you never did answer my question about why you call me princess…Anyway, Jeremie has calmed down some, but I’d still stay away from him for awhile. Give me a call later so I know you’re alright, okay? Good night Odd, sleep well.”

“You have no new messages. To repeat messages press 1, to return to main menu press 2. To…”

Odd drummed his fingers on his leg, listening as the last message clicked off as he made his way back to the dorm. He’d been locked in detention for the better half of the day, thanks to one of his pranks. He still didn’t understand why Jim didn’t find the gym being changed into a disco party funny. He gave a shrug as he approached the last turn in the stairwell, grabbing the key from the hiding place.

Ulrich knew him so well.

“I’ll call them later,” he decides with a smile. They can use a bit more of a mystery after all. And Jer should squirm and wonder. But he did hate that he’d missed the mission. “I’ll get Ulrich to tell me all about it,” he mused aloud. A couple boys in the hall gave him strange looks and he flashed them his brightest smile. “Another hour should do it.”
