Anime Portal Station (Actually it's more of a break room.)

*for some reason, Jaws music is heard, as well as the sound of what seems to be a motorcycle*

TARGET ACQUIRED.

*Van's quilly thingies starts frittering back and forth nervously as he runs, not completely sure where neither the music nor the target affirmation came from, and becoming less and less occupied with it*

*if Van looks behind him, he will see a dust cloud rapidly approching him, as well as something yellow with gray on the top of it*

*Van indeed looks behind himself, much to his displeasure. The incoming dustcloud and yellowy object cause him to start sprinting, though it becomes clear that his speed nowhere near surpasses Tanya's*

Tanya: *comes into view, and for whatever reason, she is wearing a pacman suit with a shark hat on top of it, and she's clapping her hands to mimic pacman's mouth as she runs towards Van* WAKA WAKA WAKA WAKA WAKA WAKA~!

*Van yells, but just as he resigns himself to fate, a thought of ingenuity strikes him, and his tail unravels from wherever with a bit of paint, aand in a few seconds, he manages to coat himself to resemble the blue ghost*

Tanya: *closes in and then lunges for him, jumping on top of him and chomping on his head*

*Van spins around, revealing his ghostly paint, and covers his eyes with his arms*

Tanya: *teeth latch onto his head* (muffled) Tagd. *grins, even thought her teeth are still latched onto Van's spikes*

*Van throws his arms in the air and his head back, despite Tanya's latch*
Van: AUGH! I really thought that would work!
*Van shakes Tanya off and somehow clears all the paint from his body*

Tanya: *still latched on* (muffled) You cannot eschape tuh wreth of tuh Pakman Shark Tanya!

*Van sighs exasperatedly, and, after a few seconds, starts experimentally wiggling the spike that Tanya latched on to*

Tanya: *sways with the spike, but doesn't let go*

*Van seems the slightest bit entertained and continues wiggling the spike, watching Tanya sway back and forth*

Tanya: *after a few moments of swaying, she grows annoyed, and, even though she's still latched on, she takes her whistle and turns it into a familiar looking hammer and slams Van with it, letting go as he goes flying* GO CHASE AFTER SOMEONE ALREADY!

*Van recoils, surprised that his head was still connected*
Van: Alright, alright, jeez...
*Van starts looking around, after evaluating his targets, decides to chase after Mana*

Tanya: *as Van leaves, Tanya cups her hands around her mouth* OIIII! NII-SAN! GET OVER HERE!

Mana: *hiding within a tree above Van's sight and sees he's going after her* Already, huh?

*Whip drops down next to Tanya, on his feet surprisingly*
Whip: What's up Tanya?

*Van continues looking around, unaware of Mana's presence above him*
Van: Where....

Tanya: *has a very evil look on her face8 I think it's time to play matchmaker~

Mana: *perched in a position that would allow her to bolt immediately* I wonder if Van can fight or anything... He doesn't exactly seem like the fighting type...

Whip: Matchmaker, huh? I dunno, Mana might get mad if we do it without her~
*Whip rubs his nose*

*Van seems discouraged and leans himself on the tree*
Van:....Ah.
*Van instinctively looks up into the tree, spotting Mana*
Van: The tree again!

Tanya: Oh, she'll be involved, alright.

Mana: *waves* You should try hanging out up here~ These trees are really nice!

Whip: That sounds ominous. I like it~

Van: Yeah... they are...
*Van doesn't even attempt to climb up, knowing Mana's superior tree skills*

Tanya: *turns her whistle into rope* Well, what will it be? The kidnap act, closet act, or something else?

Mana: *grins* Hey, I thought you were going to try and catch me~ Giving up so soon?

Whip: I'm impartial to the Kidnapping Act, it's a personal favourite~ Still, I wouldn't mind broadening my horizons...
*Whip puts his arms behind his head casually*
Whip: What do you think?

Van: Not at all.
*Van dramatically switches out to his pad and pencil, and in a series of lightning-fast strikes, swipes across the paper. He then flips it to show to Mana, revealing a sketch of her in her current position in the tree*
Van: I think I captured you pretty well~

Tanya: *the rope turns into a notepad and, somehow, a separate pencil as well as she starts writing something down* It has to involve Mana hitting Spikey with something. When she hits people, especially boys, it means she really likes them. (offhandedly, not realizing the implications of her next statement) I mean, look how much she hits you.

Mana: ... *turns pink, and picks a small cherry from the tree and chucks it at Van*
