"Sire, we've got so much wood we can build our new hideout!" Maki said, holding a blueprint in his hoof. He headed Team A, the resource takers. They consisted of a tank-man, a man fused with a damned 18-axle pickup-truck, and a tree-man with a jack-o'-lantern's face.
"We need Team B, the constructors to return. Team C, which I lead, will get food and whatnot," Baki said, looking at the blueprint with a devious smirk. Maki sighed in relief, as they could use proper toilets by now.
Saki, who lead Team B, returned in short order. Team B consisted of two car-men, a nurse fused with an ambulance, a chalkboard man and eraser-girl who acted as one, and a couple fused to a park bench.
Now, they needed to find a perfect spot in which to build the new base.

Misaki also had excellent healing abilities, contrary to the belief she only had destructive powers. Rekka could not thank her enough for helping him regrow his leg. Koto's foreleg had healed as well. The two began celebrating by doing a tango. Everyone cheered them on like there was no tomorrow.
"Wait till he gets married!" Tenmei sneered, chuckling a bit.
"If they had a baby now, I wonder what it would look like." Nagare remarked, grinning.
"Would it be red-and-blue, or full-fledged purple like me?" Yuuki chuckled, trying not to laugh out loud and failing to do so.
"That's a good question!" Misaki chimed, raising a hoof in agreement.
"One baby!" Rainbow called, flapping her wings nonstop.
"Twins!" Twilight shrieked, giggling a bit.
"Triplets!" Rarity exclaimed in an uncharacteristic shout.
"Quadruplets!" Yodeled the batteryman, jumping up and down.
"Quintuplets!" Shouted TV-girl, waving her arms like she was in a crowd.
"Sextuplets!" Hollered the clay-person, pointing at everyone accusingly.
"Octuplets!" Yelled the water-bottle-boy, flinging his hat everywhere.
"Ten or more!" Caterwauled vending lady, throwing her arms wide as if she were going to hug someone.
At that point, Rekka and Koto wondered if everyone else was drunk. After all, vending lady could literally use her body to produce sake in soda cans. No, seriously, she went and done it before. One Q-hybrid, a literal camera-man, saw the fiasco that resulted after the first sake incident, recorded it, and put it on the internet for all to see. How embarrassing that sure was! And, admittedly, for a while they were the laughing stock. No, scratch that, the whole Special Task Force was the laughing stock! They began wondering if the Quartet was behind that as well, though now that was not their main concern. The main concern at the moment was how to deal with a bunch of drunken dummies.

"I remember that video the camera-man posted online," Maki chuckled, putting a hoof to his chin.
"What video?" Asked Baki, confused.
"You know, the one where the brats got drunk and then staged something they shouldn't have?" Maki replied, bursting out into full-fledged laughter.
"OH! THAT ONE! Ah, the good old glory days," Baki said whistfully, signs of a nosebleed now visible on his pelt.
"Yes, if only the internet was here as well," Saki chimed, smiling deviously. She blushed redder than a cherry.
"But I wonder why we did what they did afterwards?" Maki asked, ears flat. He looked rather ashamed for once.
"Um........" Saki and Baki said in eerie unison, slowly turning to look at each other.

Rekka and Koto were now drunk like everyone else. As a matter of fact, everyone participated in a contest to see who could drink the most alcohol without upchucking or doing anything stupid, which included acts of public lewdness. Whoever lost the contest, well, let's just say the winner takes all. In short, Drunk Fiasco Part Two would happen no matter who won.
"So.....drunk...... awmahgawd.......am I seeing spinning shelves.....?" Rekka asked. He certainly sounded better sober.
"Ahyayayaya........Rekka, you look..... you're such a hunk....." Koto said, hiccuping every two words. She wrapped her forelegs around him.
"He's a what?" Yuuki said, eyes scrunched shut. She was in the process of downing another can.
"He's mine.......back off....." Koto replied, snarling defensively.
"I....remember that fiasco." Tenmei said, his glasses having fallen off.
"Oh God, not that....." Nagare shuddered, surrounded by cans of sake.
"What fiasco?" Rainbow asked, her voice slurred.
"It went something like this....." Tenmei replied, glaring at the rainbow pony.

Construction was finished. Furniture that did not consist of Q-hybrids was still in the process of being moved to this room, next to that wall.
Saki was in the bathroom, well, taking care of "lady business," which Maki and Baki, being male, did not comprehend. They did not bother to ask, though.
Maki was helping with the furniture moving, and Baki was asleep. He had not slept for days.
Nice comfy bed, polished wood floors and walls, harmonic silence save for footsteps and the occasional talking. Pure bliss at its best.

"That sure was a crazy tale....." Rainbow slurred, pointing a hoof at Tenmei.
"Ya think?" Tenmei replied, downing another can. He sounded like he was going to kill someone.
"Good gracious...." Spike murmured, hiding in a corner.
