《Blue Screen Blues》B2 Chapter 72: We Are Going To Need A Bigger Town

Advertisement

In the late afternoon, Ryan wakes up from his rest and finds Zephyr, Alex, and Breanna eating a scrumptious lunch that Breanna made from the ingredients Zephyr brought back from her castle. Everyone was talking among themselves, when Ryan exited the tent in a hurry to take a much-needed piss, Zephyr gets up and casually walks over to him and waits at a distance to deliver him an update.

“The meeting with Lake last night didn’t make a whole lot of progress. Lake was followed into the conference room by VIPs from Deland who are dead set on finding answers as to where Breanna is at. We asked them all to wait outside the room but they refused at first, then my mother got angry and requested one of her servants go and get her “Castration Knife” she uses for capital punishment. The men at that point got the message they aren’t in “Deland” anymore and gladly stepped outside. We used this to get a behind closed doors conversation with her. We knew they all had their ears on the door, so we spoke random gibberish and about random things while we secretly passed a piece of paper around the table that we secretly communicated through” Zephyr says while handing Ryan the balled-up piece of paper.

Ryan then unravels it and reads it. The three different handwriting styles were distinguishable as to who wrote what. Ryan then basically reads the conversation they all had.

Arianna: Lake, for saving your town during that invasion I at least ask of you to drop this frivolous hunt for my daughters friend”

Lake: Do you not see how far up my ass those guys are? I made a mistake by trying to con the kingdom of cons for an array of their cloning technology. I’m in too deep right now to get out of this damn agreement I made prior with them. With her friend killing a few of the “Deplorable” representatives they put in charge over my town, I now just got reeled into a nightmare I can’t get out of! – Did your daughter just shout 10-inch butt plug?

Arianna: Zephyr! Cut it out and grow the fuck up! You know they are out there writing down everything thing we are saying”

Zephyr: I know :) I am just picturing the scenario of the man’s face, when he has to report to his chain of command that he heard me say 10-inch butt plug come from this random conversation. They are all going to have to spend 5 hours trying to piece together this “Clue” to where it fits into our conversation about buttered toast and crumpets.

Arianna: Lake, what exactly is going on? I can help if you are in a bind.

Lake: I don’t really feel safe talking about it with your daughter. My “Royal” in training acts just like your daughter and for the sake of spreading misinformation on purpose to preserve the rest of my kingdoms repose, I can’t tell her or you.

Zephyr: Lindsay is smarter than you think. You can take that lie about Deland wanting to sue us for destroying a portion of their stolen navy and treat it as you would a 10 inch “butt plug”. What fucking blackmail does Deland have on us now you let them move into town.

Lake: Everything!!!

Arianna: Lake Start from the beginning. I can offer you guidance if you need help.

*From here Ryan turns the page over and continues reading*

Lake: You know that Bee that was stolen from Palmlandia a while ago? Well, we stole it, and it has put me in a hole I just can’t get out of.

Arianna: Wait? That was you? Why did you do that?

Lake: I did it out of necessity. As you know, Tourterra doesn’t have an established Air Force to defend itself. Huge natural birds we can cheaply use for warfare are nonexistent in our area. Sure our navy is the best in the world, but we have nothing to defend our homeland from the Air. That’s where the “Bee” came in. Mriya managed to get a team of people to breed a large bee they can use for warfare. We went in during Operation Barbwire and stole her bee and brought it back here in total secrecy. We have only one of them, but we need MANY if we are ever going to establish an active Airforce. I came to them begging them for technology and also promised them a blank check for it. They refused money and heavily focused on becoming a trading ally with me before they lend out their technology. Somehow some little mole from Mriya’s little Clique deep within the Deland government pieced together Mriya missing a “Military Asset” and me wanting Cloning technology and came to the conclusion WE stole the damn thing. I then got a pretty good huge list of demands from the crown of Deland. One of them was handing them over Staug. If I refused, Mriya would be told, and she would come knocking. To preserve the security of my nation I did what I had to. Now that their VIPs are dead, I have increasing pressure to kneel to their demands.

Zephyr: With due respect Lake, you are a dumbass. You should have told Liz this from the very beginning. She would mostly have sided with you and would have helped you out 100%. She could have mentioned to you about the giant flying Yellow Jackets that once inhabited Villano Island

Arianna: Lake, are you okay? You hit your head pretty hard there on the table.

Lake: I am fine. My pride hurts more then my head right now, but I will be fine.

*At this point Ryan then turns to a new page and resumes reading the conversation*

Arianna: Lake I strongly advise getting rid of that bee.

Zephyr: I’d strongly agree what my mom said ^ but with a twist. I’d subtly transport the damn thing over to Deland and blow the whistle to Mriya. You know, pull a good ole’ “Cincinnati” Switch-A-Roo on them. Your problem may take care of itself.

Lake: Your daughters plan has earned my merit. I shall put together a plan to evacuate the creature immediately. But I have to clean up loose ends. Arianna, can we have another meeting tomorrow at your castle again at exactly 2:30 PM?

Arianna: I don’t mind. I’ll clear my schedule just for you. But how about the “Girl”?

Lake: I don’t know her whereabouts and neither do you. Let us keep it that way until tomorrow. But I seriously wouldn’t house her here. But at the same time, they have eyes everywhere looking for her where-abouts. She has a 1 million-gold bounty on her head and people are aggressively out looking for her. I’d highly suggest you all trust no one till we get rid of that bee.

Arianna: Alright Lake, we shall talk again tomorrow. But on your way out can you shut the door me and my daughter have something serous we need to talk about.

Lake: I will do as you requested upon my egress. Farewell ladies.

Ryan then looks over at Zephyr and Zephyr has her sleeves rolled up and he can see bruises all over Zephyrs body.

“Baby, what happened to you!” Ryan expresses in concern while carefully caressing her bruises with his hands.

“After Lake left, my mother picked me up and threw me against the wall. She did that like Nine times. Somehow the news of You being the “Son” of Bunnell, the one who wiped the Disturbia Anarchy off the map, finally reached the castle. I know news travels slow in Wyozonia, but I like damn! I didn’t expect it to take this long for your secret from that trial to be revealed to them.” Zephyr says with a painful smile on her face.

“Wait, when I got arrested, didn’t you like tell your mother and dad about what transpired like you told me you did?” Ryan asks appearing deeply confused.

“Well, lets put it this way. I paraphrased A LOT to them about you being in trouble. My mom honestly didn’t want to help you out at all for running away like a coward in my time of need when Metter did that… horrendous thing to me” Zephyr explains with a heartfelt, painful and regretful tone to her voice. “But my father did suggest a few things to me, but I didn’t need to use them in court since Alex being a double agent, pulled that stunt of hers and saved your ass.” Zephyr then smiles and tries to get back on the subject.

“Look, News has finally reached them, and my mom tore me a new one for lying to her and keeping this from her all this time. She has so much hate and rage for you that your life is literally in danger right now. She told me to tell you if she ever got a hold of you, she was going to cut off your balls, dick, hands and feet and personally hand deliver them to your mother. I’d highly suggest getting the hell out of Wyozonia before my mom comes with her royal retinue to pick us up. Arcadia will be here in like 30 minutes, so I’d suggest securing a portal with her and head home.

“You know that sounds like a really good plan. When I get home, I’ll walk downtown and rendezvous with the “Sisters” I’m not going to jeopardize losing all my body parts” Ryan says defensively.

“Good. Your dick is still mine, and I expect you to use it on me before this week is over” Zephyr says flirtatious smile.

“Oh, while you were sleeping, we all agreed to put Breanna on a boat near the west coast of Wyozonia and stage her there for a few days. Lake saying there are eyes all around us, was no joke. There are So many nosey people at the docks purposefully looking for someone in particular. So we know we can’t physically bring he to the docks, so we have Arcadia and Kannell crewing a ship as we speak. When they get settled, they will meet you here and teleport Brenna to the ship.

“But just for your safety, with my mother being unpredictable and having an act of being early, I want you to take Alex and start walking South along the Wyoming Void and preoccupy yourselves till Arcadia gets back. I love you a lot, but I can’t save you from my mom” Zephyr says with a deep concern for his safety.

Ryan just looks at her and smiles. He then wastes no time and starts breaking down the tent. Alex joins in and helps him, and they grab their bags. Ryan then gives Zephyr a passionate kiss and then both of them depart away from the camp and start walking. As they walk away, Zephyr then stands guard of Breanna and starts talking to her.

Ryan and Alex who were marching south along the rim of void, were talking about their “Plan” for Breana.

“So last night during my watch I talked to her and got to know her. She seems pretty cool. She and I talked about the “Plan” you had for taking back the city. I chuckled at your plan, but I do see it being possible. Especially with all this new juicy intel Lake has given us.” Alex says softly.

“I wish I knew how we could combine taking back the city, transporting the “Thing” there, and Removing the “Thing” out the “Place” into one into one swift joint force operation.” Ryan says while intertwining his fingers into a figurative gesture.

“Whoa… hang on. Maybe we can! Simon says we need the item, but like all previous tasks it doesn’t have a specific deadline. Maybe we can plan ahead for this and execute it all at once. I mean pulling a heist in 2 days does sound like a horrible idea! We need to scout the place, recruit people who have access on the inside and we need like 4 different modes of escape ready. This will at least take two to three weeks of planning” Alex says while walking toward the edge of the void and stopping to look down into the black abyss below. Alex then slowly and carefully sits down near the edge and Gestures Ryan to sit next to her.

“Wait hang… I’m getting an idea! What if “She” is caught, where is she going to go? I mean the crime was committed in Tourterra, so she has to be tried there regardless of wherever she is caught. I mean Lake HAS to agree to an extradition order if she is to be tried in Deland. If we were to change the courts over preciously at the same time she was caught, maybe we rig trail and make it fair for her. I mean if what I am told is true, not one person from that town wants those foreigners there in the first place, so they would all have the mob mentality and say she did nothing wrong, and she’d walk out free” Alex says.

“Oh my god Alex! That is genius! I didn’t think about that. If we do that, maybe we can Simultaneously launch our mission and Lakes mission at the same time.” Ryan says while looking over the edge into the void below.

“Tell you what. You go with Zephyr and give her your two cents worth. You do that and I will go check up on the “girls” Ryans says while laying down flat on his back onto the mysteriously cooled ground near the rim of the canyon. Alex Smiles and copies him and gets a shock from the 72-degree ground.

“Whoa That is cold!” Alex screams while jumping up to her feet. She then feels the 87-degree heat from the surround air around her. What the hell? How is the ground cooler then the outside air?” Alex asks Ryan appearing puzzled about this phenomenon.

“Read a sign that said the Void below induces a magical cooling effect along the rim of the canyon. So, this whole entire place will always be cooler than the outside desert temperature. Ryan says lazily while reaching into his bag and pulling out random things inside a storage pocket. He then lays down the miscellaneous items down on the ground next to him and Alex chooses to lay down on her stomach and rest her chin up on her hands and lazily flex’s her legs out of sync.

“So, lets address the Hopefulness against the reality of the situation for your first plan. You need to like recruit One Hundred and One people to your cause, and you also need to do it in like two to three weeks. You know this isn’t going to be easy or a walk in the park, right?” Alex says while picking up a hair tie and randomly throwing it into the void below.

“All I can do is do the best I can. If I have to get desperate I will” Ryan says while randomly picking up a 10-millimeter socket and chucking it as far as he can into the canyon.

“A better question is where are you going to house these “People” should you meet your quota.” Alex replies while picking up a Pen and tossing it in void and smiling at him.

Ryan then picks up a random lone sock and throws it down the hole and smiles up at the sky.

“I’ll figure it out when the time comes” Ryan says while looking over to his right. He then spots a tourist Information board and is curious as to read what’s on it. When he gets up, Alex gets up with him and follows him over to the Sign.

They then read a big green sign that was directly in front of them.

Weird Fact Number 182: Watch what you throw into the Void! Legend has it that Similar or Alike Items that are thrown into the Void, are said to mysteriously and randomly Disappear on their own across all other dimensions and realms without any warning.

Upon reading this board they both stare at each other in dismay. They then turn around and walk away embarrassed from the sign and refuse to talk about they just did.

When they walk about a quarter of a mile, they then hear Arcadia teleport in behind them. They turn around in a hurry and see her standing with a smile on her face.

“Ryan, are you ready to go home?” Arcadia asks him.

“Sure. Hey Alex is going to go with the girls and give some input” Ryan says while double checking he has his gear. Arcadia smiles at him and then opens up a portal. Ryan then pokes Alex as he walks right by her and smiles and walks right on through. Arcadia then makes a portal for them to head back to base.

Upon walking through the portal, Alex sees Zephyr’s mother and her retinue behind her. Arcadia then makes a portal to the ship while focusing on the location of a magical charm she gave Kannell earlier. She then opens the portal and Kannell comes out the other side. Breanna then immediately hops right on through with a bag full of survival gear and goods that Arianna brought with her, and she walks below deck of a houseboat she now has all to herself.

The first thing she does is unpack all of her things and locks the door and heads to bed to recuperate all the sleep she lost due to stress, and anxiety from this whole ordeal. She clings tight to the magical white diamond charm and puts it on her wrist. She knows that in the unlikely event that she has to escape from this ship, all she has to do is break the charm and she will be instantly teleported back to the base camp near the Wyoming Void.

Back over in Wyozonia, Alex and Zephyr were talking about an Idea Ryan came up with previously.

“Extending the deadline out that late could be beneficial, I like it” Zephyr replies back to her. Arianna then looks over at her daughter and gives her the “Let’s Go” signal. Alex, Kannell, Arianna, and Zephyr then teleport over to the Flagpole castle. Arcadia however stays behind. She teleports back over to Staug in her Blonde hair form and goes and pays a visit to Breanna’s father. She walks into his shop and finds him being harassed by local code enforcement. She ignores the confrontation and walks over the back shelf of his shop and starts looking at random hammers, sewing supplies, and even picks up weird tool and walks over to him and requests information on it.

“What purpose does this thing serve?” Arcadia randomly asks the old man. Upon asking, the code enforcement mob stop harassing him for a moment and watches him explain to her the function of this weird corkscrew shaped shovel-like looking instrument.

Across town Ryan was coming home and walking inside the mansion when he discovers Misty inside organizing and putting things back from the raid they had four days ago. Ryan walks inside and gives Misty a hug and starts helping her finish up tidying the living room. Upon completing the living room Ryan hears a distinct whistle from the back door. He carefully opens it up and sees the three sisters standing outside with a huge look on their face.

Ryan invites them in, and they all start talking about their little “Interrogation”

“Everything went off without any issues. The D-men all pushed hard, but we kept to our story. At the end they believed us and tried to woo us with a 1-millon gold reward if we can find her and bring her to justice. Aurora says while reading the room and walking over to the hallway and starts helping with cleaning up the house. The other sisters then follow suite.

“Its Amazing how much better life is with a roof over your head. Ryan, we never got a chance to thank you properly, but we really do appreciate you for kicking our ass out there in Eyefore. Without that, we would have never giving civilized life a try. We love it and really don’t want to go back to our Roguish lifestyle. Out there we had nothing, here we have security, a chance to find our purpose, and an awesome new deity that actually cares” Aurora says while sweeping up the remnants of a broken vase.

“Hey, I am relieved to hear you say that. I got a little impossible task I may need you to help me out with. I may need you to help me pass on the “Love” to some other people who are in need” Ryan says while putting the dishes up. He then walks on over to the couch and sits down.

“Misty. Can you go for a long walk with Zara? I need to discuss something with them” Ryan says to Misty over in the hallway.

Misty picks up her kid and smiles and heads out the door for some fresh air.

“Okay Here is the deal. I need to recruit one hundred and one People to a “Cause” that may or not be cult related. I need people to actively want to move into town and stay here. I need them to cast a vote and leave at future time. We are going to try and throw some corrupted people out of town and out of power, but we have a lot of eyes on us, so we need to keep it like secretly” Ryan reveals to them.

All three sisters look at him and smile.

“What are you wanting us to do, and Also what’s your deadline? We will make a game out of this” Asylum replies back with satisfaction in her eyes.

Gather around. I will reveal to you the grand scheme of things. Ryan says while drawing a Plot map on a piece of paper. He then Labels the Squares he just drew: Step 1: We are going to need a bigger Town Followed by Step 2: Delivery -----> Step 3: ??? --> Step 4: Profit!
