What a great idea, Veg! Yeah, I'm a diehard fan of Little Shop. I have to say I loved Rick Moranis in the role. Funny though, I ran across this while listening to the soundtrack! Funny how much all the Randall fans have in common!

It's a musical comedy involving a guy who works at a florist shop, the girl (Audrey) he's in love with, and an abusive boyfriend of Audrey's who's a dentist. The Audrey II is the plant that Seymour (the main character) raises; it becomes a giant fly trap-looking thing that can talk and makes the flower shop famous. Problem is, Audrey II requires that Seymour feed it blood...human blood, and then it starts demanding dead people as its food. Seymour tries to kill the dentist (who ends up killing himself with an overdose of laughing gas), and then he feeds him to the plant...eventually, to make a long story short, the plant tries to kill Audrey, Seymour realizes that he's got to somehow destroy it, even though it's made him famous...and even though he won't be anymore, Audrey still loves him and they finally can live together happily ever after. In the movie they show a little Audrey II sprouting up in their yard at the end, though. ;D That's my quick synopsis.

Thank you everyone for sending a comment! Here it is, the next chapter!
6. Surprise, surprise.
Right after work, Randall dropped A.T. Jr. at his apartment. “I’m going to do a little research at the library,” He told him. “Just stay here and keep quiet.” A.T. Jr. looked up at Randall with an expression that could have meant he didn’t understood. Or cared. Worried, Randall gave him a piece of white cloth with brown spots. Chocolate chip flavored maybe. “Just stay here and keep quiet!” Randall said. He then left, carefully closing the door behind him. A.T. Jr. paused and with his vines, picked up the remote control, turning the TV on. He did some channel flipping until he came across a station showing karate moves. A.T. Jr. grinned, sat back and watched.
At the library, Randall flipped through some pages of a book called, STRANGE PLANTS OF THE MONSTER WORLD. He got to the end of the book without a single thing of A.T. Jr. or his species. Randall frowned. “Geez! I looked through every book on plants, and there is nothing about A.T. Jr.!” Then something grabbed his attention. A small green book at the far end of the corner stuck out from the rest of the books. Randall got it out of the shelf and opened it. He frowned. “A book about plants in space? Gee, how lame can it...HOLY COW!” He dropped the book in surprise. “Shhh!” The librarian hissed. “Sorry,” Randall mumbled, picking up the book. He stared at the picture of the plant that looked a lot like A.T. Jr. It’s real name was the Neptunis Eater. Neptunis Eaters live on a far away galaxy that no human had discovered. They eat different things. Some eat other plants, some eat meat. Others eat tree bark, or stones. The weirder ones eat telephones or paper or CD’s or pencils and all sorts of objects. The rarer plants eat blood, or...colored cloths. Randall stared at the paragraphs. “Whoa,” he mumbled.
Meanwhile, A.T. Jr was having a great time, watching the karate show. Then the news came up. “We interrupt this program for breaking news.” The anchor monster said. “The C.D.A is inspecting a case involving the escape of Henry Waternoose. They say that Waternoose is heading toward Slither Apartments. Keep watch.” The karate network returned. A.T. Jr. frowned. Slither Apartments? That was where he and Randall were living!!

Here you go everyone! The next chapter where Randall and A.T. Jr. find true love in the contest.
7. Kelly
The next day, it was a big day for Randall and A.T. Jr. The day of the plant contest. While Randall was getting A.T. Jr. ready, he became worried. What if A.T. Jr. is the only Neptunis Eater in the whole contest? What if A.T. Jr. grew bigger, he eats the clothing of the monsters?! Stop it Randall! He scolded himself. A.T. Jr is just a baby, he won’t do anything bad! Randall became a little frustrated when he tried to tie a bow around A.T. Jr’s plant pot. A.T. Jr. ate them instead. “Forget about the bow!” Randall growled, letting A.T. Jr. eat the bow. A.T. Jr. burped, looked up at Randall and said, “Ex.”
At the contest, monsters were watering their plants and putting new soil around them. Randall went over to the judges and put A.T. Jr. down before them. “Now, what breed is your plant?” One judge said. “Uh...the Neptunis Eater,” Randall mumbled. “Ah yes.” The judge said. “Take your plant to Stand A-32, next to the other Neptunis Eater.” “What?” Randall said. “There’s another one?” “Yes,” The judge said. “And funny thing, the owner is another reptile like you.” Randall didn’t say anything. He picked up A.T. Jr. and took him to stand A-32. Standing in stand A-31, was a beautiful pink reptilian monster with another Neptunis Eater with curly vines. Randall paused. He gulped. “Oh wow.” The female reptile turned around. She smiled. “Hi.” “Uh...hi!” Randall stammered. A.T. Jr. looked at the Neptunis Eater, lifted his vines and waved. The Neptunis Eater waved back. “You got a Neptunis Eater too?” The reptilian monster said. “Yeah,” Randall said, looking down at A.T. Jr. “That is so cool!” The reptilian monster said. “I thought I was the only one!” “Yeah,” Randall smiled. “Same here!” “What’s your plant’s name?” “Uh...A.T. Jr.” The female reptile smiled. “That’s a cute name! Mine’s is named Fern. My name is Kelly, by the way.” “Randall.” Randall introduced himself. “Randall Boggs.” Kelly smiled. Randall smiled. It was love at first sight.

Awww, how sweet! I wonder how Kelly got a hold of her Neptunis Eater...is it possible that this was all a set-up to get the two of them together? ;D

I am so, so, so, so, so, so, so sorry it took this long to put up the next chapter! I was busy, but here it is!!! 8. Questions, questions and more questions. The contest began a little while later. Randall stood behind A.T. Jr.’s flowerpot. Kelly stood next to him behind Fern’s flowerpot. The judges suddenly stopped in front of Randall and Kelly. ¨Good Lord! ¨ One of them gasped. ¨Could those be…they are! Neptunis Eaters! ¨ Before you could say, ¨Feed me, ¨ reporters swarmed over to Randall and Kelly, snapping pictures and asking questions at once. One of the judges held out his hands for silence. ¨Just one moment, these lucky monsters will answer your questions over by the stands.¨ A little while later, Randall and Kelly found themselves behind a stand that sort of resembles that stand where governors debate over stuff. ¨Excuse me, ¨ one reporter said, ¨Would you like to tell us how you got those Neptunis Eaters? ¨ ¨Well, ¨ Kelly began. ¨I got mine at the flower shop. This guy came over and gave me the seed and left. When I tried to find him to pay him for the seed, he was gone.¨ Randall stared at Kelly. Could that guy be the same guy that sold him A.T. Jr.? ¨What about you? ¨ One reporter asked Randall. ¨Well, kinda like her.¨ Randall said. ¨Except I was behind the scenes in a play Monsters Inc was doing and that same guy sold me my seed. Can we go now? ¨ A reporter called out, ¨Did you pricked your fingers to feed your plants? ¨ ¨No! ¨ Randall and Kelly said together. ¨Then what do you feed your plants? ¨ One reporter shouted. Kelly sighed. ¨Marshmallows.¨ She mumbled. ¨I uh…feed mine some stuff you can find around the house.¨ Randall said. Some reporters laughed while others took pictures. ¨Did they attacked you or bitten you once?¨ ¨No way!¨ Randall exclaimed. ¨Of course not!¨ Kelly scoffed. Nobody noticed vines curl around a stray camera. A.T. Jr. brought the camera close to him and looked at it. He touched a button and there was a flash of the camera taking a picture. Click, whirrr. Startled, A.T. Jr. dropped the camera. A little while later, he grinned and picked it up again, taking pictures of him and Fern, enjoying the flash of light and the whirr sound. Fern did a little sigh and shook her plant head.
