《Blue Screen Blues》Book 2: Chapter 1: "The Quest To Fix The Faucet"

Advertisement

It has been about 3 hours Since Liz just received her Crown and Tittle: "Duchess of Northern Tourterra".

Liz Who now owns the Manson that Zephyr just gave her for Tax purposes, just kicked Ryan and Zephyr out of the Master Bedroom and told them they can have her old room.

Ryan moves his Clothes and Armor to the the other room while Zephyr moves her stuff as well.

"Ugg I'm So sticky. I want to take a bath" Zephyr said while she throws her clothes onto the floor and jumps on her back onto the bed.

"You know that water outside in that lake is pretty cold though" Ryan told her while picking up her clothes and putting it in the closet.

"I wish the Stone bath we have here had flowing water again" Zephyr said while taking Ryan's Phone and playing a random song.

"Wait hang on we have a bath area in this house? I didn't know that!" Ryan said sounding surprised.

"Ya, it's in that other room Across from Greena's old room" Zephyr said while poking Ryan in his belly button playfully.

"Hmm let me go look at it I may be able to get the water running again" He said while gently running his hand under her cute Cat ears.

"I'm gonna bite you if you keep petting me!" She said Playfully.

Ryan gets up and walks over to the other room and looks inside the bathroom. He sees a Huge Rectangular Stone bathtub that looks like a mini swimming pool. He sees an old valve that looks broken and can't turn it by hand.

"Well Found the problem" He said while looking at the valve.

Ryan focus's hard and Recalls his phone into his hand. When he recalls it the song "Walkin' On the Sun" From Smash mouth was playing.

Ryan Opens up his offline Internet tab on his phone and googles Plumbing information.

He Finds out the Valve was made of Copper and if it looked Corroded and clogged. He heads to the back of the house and remembers seeing some Copper tube laying in a nearby run down shed. He takes some tools in that shed and 4 inches of pipe and brings the saw into the bathroom with him.

He cuts the Valve off of the wall and notices no water was coming out.

"Damn the problem isn't here in the wall" He said while rolling his eyes in disappointment. He knows he needs to head into town and get Ernie to make him a new valve. He takes this valve in his hand and walks out of the room and meets up with Liz.

"Can you Teleport me into town?" He asked her with a smile.

"What for?" She said while eating an Orange.

"Going to fix the bath faucet" He said while showing her the valve in his hand.

"Ohhhh absolutely! I'll go with you!" She said while putting her arm around him and Teleporting them 5 miles into town.

When they Arrive outside of Staug City, they notice Construction Crews are almost down fixing the wall that Greena blasted a hole in.

Ryan walks to Ernie while everyone who saw Liz bowed down to her. Queen Lake already told Mayor Max, who in turn told the whole town about her being their new leader. Max approaches Liz and they walk into City hall and chat a little bit.

As Ryan Walks into the city, He puts on the song "City of Ocala" By A Day To Remember again and Walks up the Steps onto the City's Fort wall. He walks over to the seaside wall and notices something scary.

The water in the Bay in front of him was blood red from the massacre last night. Bodies of the Anarchists were seen floating in the water and you could see the debris and parts of the sunken ships they sank last night in the distance too.

When the Arcane mages Started Craning in more blocks on top of the seawall Ryan runs over to the wet coquina blocks and Hardens them up for the Fire mages Down below. He gives them a thumbs up and another Arcane mage puts 3 more up there for him to Harden up with his fire magic. After he was done everyone on the ground cheered since they were done. Ryan walks down off the seawall and notices that a whole group of Carpenters and Trades men were all lined up and bowing down to Liz. They all got assigned jobs to repair the buildings that were damaged last night, and all the men were excited to get to work.

The carpenters were making arrangements with the Lumberjacks who were dragging in logs from the forest to the west with donkeys. They were all very happy and working together on to get a plan in place to start fixing up the town. Ryan walks past Liz who was holding some woman's 3-year-old in her arms and playing with her as the mother thanked her for saving her last night.

Suddenly there was a Horn that blew in the back of the town. Everyone walked over toward the horn and it was to signal that the Execution of the Survivors that attacked the town was about to begin.

They were all Lined up against the wall and had burlap sacks put over their heads. 60 feet away were a line of Archers with Bows and Crossbows. Liz gave the firing order to execute all 20 of them. After they were shot to death their bodies were thrown into the bloody red water.

Liz then walks over to the Business District and starts shopping for meat and vegetables for tonight's celebration dinner.

Ryan takes his valve over to Ernie who was making nails for the carpenters and talks to him. Ernie tells him to just leave it on the table and go Grab a control valve from the Supply depot. Ryan then walks over to the Supply depot where he brought in a whole bunch of Pipes for the Rainwater Collection system they are installing for the city and takes a Valve that was the size of the one he brought in here and then goes and finds Liz. On his way to Liz, Ernie Intercepts him and asks for help.

"Hey, you're a Fire mage, and I heard from Stark your good at Crafting. Can you help me Weld something really quick?" He asked him.

"Sure, what do you need me to do?" Ryan Replied.

They both walk over to a huge 40-foot Trailer and kneel underneath it.

"So, the last guy who used this told me he noticed these welds are failing. This whole entire thing is like 4 wagons that were welded together so we can bring in a whole bunch of product in at once. Let me show you what I need you to do" He told him as he took Ryan's Magic sword. Take this sword and focus some heat from here to here and when it becomes molten swirl your sword and mix the "Lava" together and let it cool" He told Ryan.

Ryan does what he was asked and begins melting the steel together.

"Like that" Ryan asked while pulling his Sword away from the glowing hot weld.

"Yes! Just like that! Can you do that all the way to the other side?" He said while hitting the glowing hot weld with a hammer.

"Sure!" Ryan told him. He then spends 15 minutes starting and Stopping and joining the metal together while Ernie hit the welds with a hammer behind him. After he was done Ernie gives him 20 gold for his help and they both depart ways. He meets up with Liz who had Lobster, More Shrimp, and some steaks in one bag, and Chives, Butter, Garlic, and Potatoes in another bag. She then walks with him to the arcane mage class trainer and she asks the female instructor if she could use her cooldown and send them home. She agrees and teleports them home.

"So dumb question, how is it that at a low level you have a 6-hour cooldown between teleportation spells, but Queen Lake's Guards seem to have no cooldown between uses?" He asked her.

"Oh, they have special teleportation stones in their staffs. They are Extreamly expensive and extreamly rare, but they do have a cooldown between uses. Instead of having to wait an hour at max level between teleports, they have to wait 10 minutes Between jumps. That's why you will see 2 of them with her at time so she can double jump." She explained to him.

"Ahh Ok. I get it they do what we do" He told her.

"Exactly!" Liz said as Ryan opens up the front door for her as she walks inside the house. She puts the grocery's onto the table and walks over to Zara and plays with her.

"You want to go fishing?" Liz said while twirling with her in her hands.

Zara didn't say anything, she was still depressed her house was destroyed and her mother was smiling at Liz. Liz then carries her outside as Misty takes out a knife and gets to work on cutting up the vegetables without being asked. She looks out the window and See's Liz making a homemade fishing pole from a tree branch with her daughter and smiles. Shes really upset that her husband isn't alive because of her, but at the same time shes glad shes forgiven this young girl. She's living in a place she never thought she would ever step foot in, and also with the fact shes no longer a hard-working single mother She's blessed she can now spend time with her daughter Zara.

Ryan meanwhile in the bathroom takes that valve he had and the Pipe that he cut and Solders them together onto the wall. After it was fixed, he looks up on his phone that type of water system they had. They didn't have a hand pump outside, or a Well outside in general. He then goes to the basement and looks really hard at the main water pipe that feeds the System. It was corroded where it came out the ground and then that's when He discovered this house was feed by an Artesian well. He cuts this pipe out of the ground and notices it had so many holes in it which was why water wasn't coming in. He goes to the shed and pulls out a huge 10-foot cooper pipe and starts beating it into the old hole the last pipe came out. He then Solders that pipe together with another 10-foot pipe and starts beating it even deeper into the ground until he hits water. When the naturally pressurized water starts to shoot out, he cheers and jumps in joy, He then attaches that pipe to the plumbing that runs into the house and then walks to the bathroom. He turns on that valve and water starts flowing out of the faucet into the bathtub. This makes Ryan do a little dance and he lets the bath fill up.

He walks into the living room and finds Kannell and Zephyr talking.

"Guess who got the Bath working again!" He tells them while taking his shirt off.

The two of them smile at him and dash for the bathroom. They see the water filling up and look at each other and they both look so excited. Ryan leans into the water and starts heating the water up with his hands and the girls disappear. He heats the water up for 15 minutes then shuts the water off. He then takes his pants off and hops in and relaxes. The Steam coming off the water fills the room and it felt so amazing. He leans back against the wall and hears 3 splashes. He focus through the fog and can see Zephyr coming to him naked. She sits next to him and hugs him tight.

"See what I tell you Liz? Men do have their Uses!" Zephyr said while kissing him on the cheek.

"Bitch he's got multiple uses. He's a Fire mage so as long as we feed him, he's our hot water heater" Liz said sarcastically from the other side of the Bath.

Ryan Stares at the other side of the bath and can see Liz naked in front of him. She dives her head under water and shakes her wet Brown hair and starts washing it as Kannell was sitting on the edge of the wall fully clothed but only with her legs in the water.

"Ryan throw me your Phone please" She asks him.

Ryan then throws his phone across the water to her, but she fails to catch it and it goes into the water.

His phone being magically buffed to be waterproof and indestructible; she picks it up out of the water and shakes the water off of it. She then puts on the song "All About That Bass" By Meghan Trainor Then starts lathering her body up with soap.

"Hey, aren't you going to join us Kannell?" Liz asked her

"Umm I don't know. Is it okay with you Zephyr since Ryan is here?" She asked.

"Go for it, it's not like he's NOT fantasizing about you naked" Zephyr said while hugging him.

"Wait huh?" Ryan said seeming confused.

Kannell then strips down and jumps into the relaxing hot water and starts washing the dried blood off her body.

"Oh, come one Ryan, just look at those huge Snuggle-Pups of hers, you can't tell me you don't fantasize about those huge things" Zephyr said sarcastically

Enjoying the compliment Kannell Smiles at her and ducks her head under water.

"Yes, those Life Savers are great to look at, but I like yours honey" Ryan said while poking her boob.

"Aww That's sweet, but mine are Small. I'm a B cup compared to her Double D's" She said while poking him in the cheek.

"I'm Jealous too! Her Warlocks are bigger than mine! I just got C boobs but damn girl your Fun bags are like a gift from Bunnell Herself" Liz said while grabbing one of them and feeling it out of jealousy.

This makes Kannell Smile even more.

"How the hell do you even cast spells with these things?" She asked while letting go of her breast and letting her hand fall into the water.

"Very carefully" Kannell reply's back while smiling at her.

"It's so annoying when I raise my arm to cast a spell and my boobs shift, they tend to throw off my spells aim, it has to be like 40 times worse for you" Liz said while dipping her head underwater.

"That doesn't bother me anymore, you see the Navy made me do exercises where I had to hit my mark while my boobs were flying all over the place while I was jogging without a Bra. So, I learned to ignore that issue." Kannell said while leaning her head back.

"We didn't know you were Special Forces this whole time, let alone active military" Liz said while also leaning back.

"Ryan the water is getting cold could you heat it up for us?" Liz said lazily.

Ryan then starts heating up the water while Zephyr randomly gave him a kiss on the ear.

"Well you never asked me. I mean I did drop hints about my last job taking me all over the world" Kannell said teasingly.

"I should have also picked up on the fact you can Hover in the Air and rain down an explosive hailstorm" Liz replied to her.

"Ya, they trained me to be a Landing Specialist on my old Special Taskforce. I'm basically the girl that helps Lands a team on an enemy ship. I'm Also trained in Close Quarter Combat, so I can pretty much clear a small room out in a hurry" She said as she stretches her leg out into the warm water that was coming from Ryan's Hand.

"You know what, I think we should do a Dungeon Tommorow" Zephyr said while placing her hands on her Ryan's leg.

"Ya that would be nice! But we need a Tank and a Healer though" Ryan said while secretly staring at Kannell's Life Vests.

"I hope Greena didn't die, her blasts are extreamly powerful, I really hope her spells DO teleport out before the spell finishes up because no one can survive that Blast of hers" Liz said while splashing the water in boredom.

"Me too, but I hope your not Implying you want to use her as a healer. Her shadow Healing spells hurt worse than the attacks themselves" Zephyr said while a concerned tone.

"They don't hurt THAT BAD" Liz said in a funny teasing way.

"To you they don't! You're like a freaking Masochist Liz, so you like that stuff compared to us who actually hate the pain those of spells induce" Zephyr replied.

Liz just sticks her tongue out at her now and smiles.

"So dumb question have you 2 smashed each other yet? I know you all are sleeping together now" Liz said while getting up and out of the bath.

"No, we have not. He keep turning me on and walking out. I swear to god if he does that again I'm going to drown him" She said while moving behind Ryan and putting him in a playful head lock and kissing him on the cheek.

"Ryan come on dude, stop doing that to Zephyr. You don't know how Annoying that is to her" Liz tells him in a Disappointed tone.

"I really really want to, but it's her tail that's stopping me from doing it honestly" Ryan said grabbing her hair pulling her too her for a kiss on the lips.

"I swear to Arcadia Ryan, if you don't finish what your starting right now, I'm gonna kill you" Zephyr said in a crazy Angry tone while kissing him back and playfully biting him.

"Look maybe later this week we can try it. I'm still a little upset and fucked up from dying last night Hun" Ryan told her while running his hand down her forehead, Nose and Chin. Then Pushing back against the wall of the Bath while smirking at her.

"See ladies what I'm up against here? This sexy boy here keeps getting me in the mood and walking away" She said as Ryan stands up and walks out of the bath. He then grabs a towel and dries off.

Both of the girls giggle at her frustration and get up out of the water with him. Zephyr quickly dunks her head under water and then gets out.

"I freaking love the fact we have a man in the house that can fix things, and also serves as a free water heater. Zephyr I swear if you Ever put him in the doghouse, I'm gonna adopt him" Liz said jokingly while poking her in the boob.

"Go Ahead, He's Already in there" she said with her Arms Crossed with a demented smile.

Ryan then leans into the bath and heats the water up for 2 minutes while the girls dry off.

"What are you doing baby? I thought we were done taking a bath" Zephyr Asked seeming confused.

"Warming the water up for Misty and Zara, they are going to want to take one" He said as he warmed up the water.

He then gets up and gets dressed and walks out into the living room. Misty just got done chopping up the vegetables, and Liz offers them the chance to take a free bath. Misty smiles and Grabs Zara and they go and take a bath.

The 4 of them then get bored while they sit on the couch thinking of something to do.

"You ladies Want to go Sailing?" Ryan asked randomly.

All the girls shrug their shoulders and nod in agreement.
