How Trixie Tried to Communicate

- 3 Days and 7 Hours Stranded on an Island -

Trixie grumbled as she was kneeling on the beach, fondling some kind of machinery with her screwdriver. Yesterday's attempt to fly out of the island failed miserably and she spent the rest of the day sulking in her bedroom, but not after Sonata treated her wounds (much to Trixie's reluctance). She got bandages wrapped around parts of her body, her right side of her head and mostly her arms and legs. After a day of rest, she spent the whole morning salvaging any machinery she could find from the Flim Flam's boat. What she got was a microwave, some wires, a small satellite dish, a part of a radio from the boat's dashboard, a microphone, huge headset, a corded telephone and three coconuts.

Trixie was planning to put all the different kinds of machinery together to create her makeshift radio. She hoped that if the machine works, she can radio someone to come to the island and rescue her. The things she learned from girl scouts really paid off.

Just as Trixie was finishing tightening the screws, she heard someone walked up behind her.

"Hey there Bixie!" said Sonata.

"Go away!" Trixie replied, not taking her eyes off of her machine.

Sonata frowned. "But I was about to ask-"

"No!"

"But you don't know what I was going to-"

"Was it yet another so-call moronic games that you both want me to join?"

"Um... yes?"

"Then Trixie's not interested!"

Sonata huffed. "C'mon Bix! Me and Pinks were worried about you. You never had any fun since we got here!"

Trixie growled. "Trixie does not want to have fun! Trixie wants to get off of this island and go home! If you two morons are just gonna continue to fool around then be my guest! Just get out of Trixie's way!"

"But-"

"LEAVE!"

Sonata sighed sadly and then she turned and walked away from Trixie. She kept on walking until she was close to Pinkie and Bob the monkey in the middle of the beach. Pinkie had a concerned look on her face while Bob's expression had a heavy frown.

"Did you get her to stop working Nata?" Pinkie asked.

Sonata slowly shook her head. "No. She's too stubborn to listen."

Pinkie placed her hand on Sonata's shoulder and gave Sonata her a reassuring smile. "Give her time. I'm sure she'll calm down and listen to us soon."

Sonata frowned skeptically. "How can you be so sure Pinks?"

"'Cause the author of this story is starting to run out out of ideas of torturing her."

"Oh."

Pinkie then gave Sonata her huge Pinkie-like smile. "Now what do ya say we play some volleyball with Bob!"

"Oooh! I'm game!" Sonata cheered as Bob 'ooh' in agreement.

While the girls and Bob were ready to set up the game, Trixie continued to work on the machine with a bitter look.

"You never have any fun Trixie!" Trixie muttered in a mocking voice as she placed the corded phone in the microwave. "Trixie will have fun once she gets off of this island!"

She took the long rock and a flat rock over one of the coconuts and then bang the long rock with the flat one as a chisel. Once the hole on the coconut was deep enough, she repeated her actions with the second one. Next, she connected the wires at the back of the machine and then placed the other end of the wires into the holes of the coconuts. She then took the third coconut, smashed them in half with a rock and then drank the water from the half of the coconut.

As much as she's sick of coconuts, working on creating a makeshift radio in the heat was making her thirsty.

She placed the coconut half with water in it down on top of her machine. Then, with her fingers crossed, she turned on a switch and she heard her machine hummed to life.

Alright! So far so good... Trixie thought to herself as she placed a worn-out headphones over her ears. She fiddled the dials some more before she started speaking into her microphone.

"Hello? Hello? Can anyone read me?"

Trixie heard nothing but static from her headphones.

"Mayday! Mayday! This is Trixie Lulamoon! Can anyone hear me?! Please respond!" Trixie pleaded.

She still heard nothing but loud static from her headset. Just when she was about to turn the dials again, she finally heard a voice.

"H...Hello? Can I help you miss?"

Trixie let out her excited gasp. "Yes, YES!" She then brought her microphone close to her face in desperation. "Listen carefully, this is Trixie Lulamoon! I'm trapped on this deserted island with two idiots. You need to come save me at once!"

"...um yeah, okay."

Trixie squeed with joy.

"...you wanted a crispy moo burger, a dessert shake and two grit fries."

Trixie eyes widen in disbelief and then she immediately frowned. "NO! I said Trixie Lulamoon! Deserted island! Two idiots!"

"...Oh okay. A crispy moo burger, dessert shake and two large grit fries! I got it! That'll be eight twenty-nine at the pay window. Thank you!"

Trixie growled in frustration and then she started twisting the dials around to get better help. She eventually found a channel with no static noice in the background. At first, she thought there was nobody on the channel, until she heard some kind a ring tone from the other end. The machine stopped ringing and then Trixie heard a very gruffly man's voice.

"Alright... who's this!"

Trixie was taken back from the voice's bluntness. "Oh! Um... I'm Trixie Lulamoon. Me and-"

"How did you connect to my Codec?"

"Oh. I-I used my makeshift radio. I was trying to-"

"Are you a spy?" The voice said in his accusing tone.

"What!? NO! I'm just a teenager trying to call for help!"

Trixie heard the man scoffed. "Look Miss, if your trying to pour your problems on someone, you got the wrong number! There's a hotline that can take care of emotional teenagers like you!"

"It's not like that!" Trixie snapped. "Me and the two other girls are-"

"I'm not wasting my time on this! I'm in a middle of my-"

Suddenly Trixie heard many footsteps and then another man's voice called out.

"THERE HE IS!"

"OH CRA-"

Trixie winced when she heard a lot of loud gunshots from the background and then the man she was talking to screamed in agony. Then there was nothing but silence, until she heard a different man's voice.

"Snake?"

...

"SNAKE?"

...

"SNAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!"

Trixie quickly turned the dials. "Ooooooookay? Trixie will get help elsewhere."

Trixie kept on adjusting the dials until she heard another person's voice from her headset.

"Hel...lo?"

"FINALLY!" Trixie cried. "Listen, I'm Trixie Lulamoon and I begging you to rescue me from a deserted island away from the two idiots!"

"...rest...kew?"

"YES! RESCUE!" Trixie yelled. "I need you to save me!"

"...Sumimasen. Nani o watashi ni tsutaeyou to shite imasu ka?" ⁽¹⁾

Trixie eyes widen in horror when she realized this person speak in another language.

"Can't you understand me!?" Trixie screamed in desperation. "I said I need help!"

"...Gomen'nasai. Watashi wa mada anata o rikai shite imasen." ⁽²⁾

"HELP ME!"

"Watashi wa hidoku zan'nendesuga, anata ga nani o itte iru no ka mada wakarimasen. Anata o shibaraku mata seru." ⁽³⁾

"HELP ME! HELP ME! HELP ME! I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU TO-"

Trixie then heard some kind of waiting music instead of a voice, causing Trixie to scream out in rage. With her face all red and grinding her teeth, she frantically twisting all the dials in front of her, desperately finding anyone to help her. But as she was messing around with her machine, the static noises sound worse and louder.

"STUPID PIECE OF JUNK!" Trixie screamed.

During the commotion, the two girls were playing an intense volleyball game against Bob the monkey. Bob's been noticing that the white-haired girl been acting rude to the other girls, which in his opinion, was the nicest girls he's been hanging out with and appreciate their kindness. If there's one thing he hates more then some creature destroyed his home was some creature being nasty to his new friends. After how Trixie acted to Sonata earlier, he decided to get back at her. So when Pinkie hit the ball over the net, Bob jumped up near the front of the net and spiked the ball, but while aiming at Trixie.

As the ball shot towards Trixie, Pinkie screamed, "TRIXIE, LOOK OUT!"

Trixie turned and screamed at the ball coming towards her and ducked just before hitting her. However, the ball smacked on her machine, causing the coconut to spilled the water all over the machine. Trixie frowned worryingly when smoke and sparks coming out of her makeshift radio.

"...uh oh."

Her makeshift radio exploded in her face.

After the smoke settled, Trixie revealed to be completely covered in black powder. She let out a single cough before she fell backward on the sand, moaning in pain. Both Pinkie and Sonata gasped before they ran towards Trixie with a smug looking Bob behind them. Once they were near Trixie, the two girls had worried expressions on their faces while Bob snickered at Trixie's expense.

Sonata turned to Pinkie with her worried look. "Uh... Pinkie?"

"On it!" Pinkie declared as she placed her nurse hat on top of her head before helping Trixie.

Author's Note:

Before anyone ask, no I don't think you can use a coconut as a battery (not that I know of). So please do not attempt.

In case you were all wondering, here is what the third person was saying over the phone in Japanese:

(1) I'm sorry miss. What are you trying to tell me?

(2) I'm sorry. I still don't understand you.

(3) I'm terribly sorry miss, but I still have no idea what you were saying. Let me put you on hold for a moment.

And no, I don't speak in Japanese. I used Google Translate to translate all the english qoutes I used to Japanese. And this was the result.

Who bets Trixie wants Monkey's Brain?

[OmniFox]

Maybe Trixie has OCD.

[CSC]

And now I'm starting to hate that monkey.

How long until Trixie finally breaks down and loses her mind?

Nah, Trixie just wants to get off of the island and away from Pinkie and Sonata as quickly as possible since they both drive her crazy.

[sonicfan05]

Pretty close my friend. I won't spoil anything, but lets just say... that Pinkie and Sonata will eventually push Trixie over her limit.

[CSC]

8318341 My honest first guess was she breaks down crying and goes through a deep depression.

[OmniFox]

8318333
Or it could be worse.

[Shotgunboy848]

I can imagine a scene where Trixie gets fed up with bob, she finds a rifle (or makes a weapon) and ammo on the beach and tries to hunt him down, with Pinkie and Sonata trying to stop her.

[SuperSonicHeroes]

Did Trixie just get Snake killed? I guess it won't be much longer until Trixie snaps and tries hunting Bob down.

[mitchboy]

I use google translate too and I was learning to speak Dutch, Spanish and French.

Like that's ever gonna happen.

Stop breaking the fourth wall Pinkie!

Seems like the signal got attached to some fast food joint.

Thx Bob. I hate you.
