《Puzzle: Theo's Virtual Quest》Chapter 5
Advertisement
Theo parked himself on the couch, watching his beloved Adventure Buddies on Net-Toons for several hours with tight eyeballs. He had a wonderful time indulging in the Furlanders completing their assigned tasks and journeyed with them along the bumpy roads.
In addition to his glee in viewing the show with his eyes, Theo had an advantage over other Adventure Buddies viewers. Since his father's company, DIY-Tech had designed and constructed a VR set that permitted him to join the cast-members; Serenity, Tailgate, Yzaaak, Selly, and Jellymint, on their animated quests.
With this fine asset, Theo’s imagination expanded quite a bit as he was capable of witnessing the magical land of Lamper first handed. Catching sight of all the mystical creatures going onward with their daily lives and experiencing the enjoyment of being a hero who helps others in times of need.
Theo having adequate knowledge about the whimsical world was a direct result of him binging the cartoon. That was why he could hold his grounds so well against Robert in the make-believe duel.
The desire to assist others had an imposing influence on Theo. Adventure Buddies taught him the benefits of lending helping hands to others who are incompetent in taking the measures necessary in aiding themselves.
Despite him cherishing magical and fantasy tales or TV shows, it was not the dearest topic to Theo. In a world that has plenty to offer the toddler, yet the subject that seems to fascinate his mind the most is, "Arrr! ye guessed it, pirates". The sea dwellers who locate hidden treasure and sail across the ocean on their long voyages got his heart pounding the fastest.
This admiration ensued when he saw the episode of Adventure Buddies. That showed the gang of mystical creatures going on a watery expedition. The quest was not the least bit simple.
It entailed an exceptional deal of endurance and effort, from withstanding the roaring beastly oceans swallowing ships entirely to fighting off dangerous sea critters who aimed to plunder the goods. All of this to land upon a drop-dead gorgeous Caribbean Island.
The exhausting quest required the Furlanders to transport enchanting supplies such as Fairy Bust, Fruits of Moonshy, and more types of equipment Lamper had to offer across the Oakgaze ocean with the interference of a fierce storm. The raging winds were not the only hindrance as there were internal disputes amongst the crew.
The main objective for the Furlanders setting sail on the briny deep (ocean) with an old salt (an experienced pirate) was for them to fend off invading pirates.

When Theo saw the voyages of the Adventure Buddies, it instantly resonated well with the youngster. He slept fantasying about going on the deep blue seas for ventures with a crew of his own.
Robert observed the interest Theo had for pirates. Therefore, he went out and brought the youngster a History of The Sea Born Pirates.
The tales within the book provided him with additional knowledge about pirates. Robert made it his duty to read the book every night as a bedtime story.
After sitting a decent amount of the cartoon for a lengthy period, he ultimately rose to get enough of his precious Adventure Buddies for one day. Theo eagerly ran upstairs to his room for an astronaut and alien costume to play hide-and-seek and resume the pleasant moments with his old man.
He brickly galloped in anticipation of the home office like a horse on an open field. Upon arrival to the room, Theo caught chatting escaping from inside. He cracked open the door.
Theo overheard Robert saying, “Oh yeah, the evaluation of the new headset happened last week, and it is authorized to use, but it is still a prototype at the moment.”
Dropping his head and gently closing the door in discouragement. He immediately knew the possibilities of playing hide-and-seek with his father were lower than a snake belly. Robert was currently in a company meeting and discussing business matters with his colleagues on the laptop.
Though this was a massive bummer for Theo, it did not fully sadden his spirit as he still went to the backyard along with his imaginary friend, Linos the stuffed Imp, to take part in all types of playful activities.
An example of the pastimes he engaged in would be pretending pirate, where Theo goes around the backyard to seek out intriguing objects or what a pirate will call booty.
The things would be considered an appealing thingamajig to catch sight of and salvageable objects. Multicolored insects such as butterflies, ladybugs, and lost playing toys left around the yard to get picked up.
He scanned the area high and low where there were leaves and where it had water until he eventually came upon an action figure he had at a prior time. It was quite an unusual find on this search for the youngster.
**
The action figure Theo discovered was a model of the superhero Warfare Hombre with A Pompre. He is an anti-hero rebel with the ability to blow stuff up with his mind. Warfare Hombre can only control his power by the use of a shotgun. That is where the "With A Pompre" part of his name came into effect.

This outlaw fights crime and supports the police officers in the shadows since he is not a fan of being in the limelight.
He was initially an evildoer who perpetrated crimes for a living. Until his criminal organization, The Wave of Immoral to turned on him.
Their reason for them playing Jubas was because he refused to eliminate a target who was in a car with his wife and kids. The refusal made him appear soft and unharmful to his comrades of the organization.
That series of fortunate yet unfortunate events led to Warfare Hombre with a Pompre, getting blackballed by The Wave of Immoral.
His formal companions saw it fitting to thrash him for his failure to carry out the mission and made him discerned that the world is not all beer and skittles.
After getting beaten half to death and being rejected by the villain organization, he seeks out lex talionis, also known to be revenge for the pain he had suffered.
His display of not having a cruel nature when it came to taking the required steps to do away with the wife and children had Theo feeling electrified to follow the story of vengeance while rooting for the ex-villain.
And the path he took in striving to amend for his unlawful ways and live a more sinless life.
Even though Theo was moderately interested in the journey Warfare Hombre with a Pompre undertook to change his life for the better. It was not the aspect of the show that drew him in the most.
The action the cartoon had to offer would easily take his number spot on the interest scale. With the cool razzmatazz explosions and fight scene. Which glues one's eyes to the TV for days as they do their best to capture every single flash of it.
All these hair-raising features offered by A Revenge Filled with Warfare made it Theo's go-to show to feast his eyes on up until Adventure Buddies came into existence and introduced to him.
**
While engaging in his fun times playing in the backyard, Theo caught sight of a bee flying into the garden from his field of version. The bee most likely came from the bee nest on the mango tree next to the pool.
The youngster gingerly trod when following the honey maker from a safe distance. He wanted to examine where its destination would be. Although Theo had been stung by a bee once before, it seemed like curiosity still had not killed the cat just yet, or should one say click the wings.
The bee had eventually left the eyes of the eager to know youngster after a short period until it completely vanished. Theo sighed yet again. He did not know where the wandering bee ended up. Into the garden was an option, albeit, he considered twice before entering.
But the youngster was slightly relieved that he did not get stung this time around. Since his mother would have been upset if she figured out, he was provoking bees again and troubling her flowers. Theo took a little peek into the garden, did not spend long in there, nevertheless.
After Theo left the blooming house, he headed straight to the stone pond to feed the fishes, or he likes to call it.
"Operation: Feeding of the Fishess."
There are two Koi fishes in the pond, and it is his responsibility to feed them. Koi are a winsome eye-catching pond fish with varieties of colors that will surely get visitors' attention and not only them.
But Theo was also aware of their beauty. That is why the youngster made it his duty to feed them so he can cherish the Koi swimming around in the pond.
When the feeding of the Koi fishes mission accomplished, Theo carried on with his playtime activities for a few more hours.
As the day came slowly to the end, he flew the single rotator helicopter drone that his father made for him for a brief moment till it got stuck up in the mango tree.
Theo tried with all his best efforts to get it down from the tree, but his endeavors seemed to be in vain. He was incapable of retrieving the drone from the tree.
Following all his attempts and the failures he had encountered, the youngster seemingly gave up on the drone and laid down on the turfy lawn, a sheet he had to pretend pirate used as a grass spread.

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.

Again
Most villains, no matter how terrifying, are defeated by a hero on the first try. The hero may be forced to flee or otherwise delay the real confrontation, but it’s still certain that he will win when it occurs. But some villains simply defeat all comers. Against an opponent like that, the only options are to give up or to try again. --- This story is a participant of the WriTEr's pledge. In short, I promise to finish it, and may I be Hall of Shamed if I don't.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
