Krispy smiled. "Everything has to fall at some point. Now, about my plan. I have this here bowl of rice krispies. Keep it with you, and I can speak to you through it. Only you will be able to understand it."
Krispy looked at her soldiers for a moment. "My elite will follow you, out of sight of course, to make sure everything goes well. If you ever neep them, you only need to snap."
Krispy then turned to Holden. "Now about your special abilities...."

Captain L waved a hearty goodbye at Sarah and bellowed "Yarr! Hurry back to the kingdom, Princess, and may the good winds bless ye on yer journey!" Our beloved pirate captain whipped around toward the rest of his passengers and/or crew, demanding their next location. "Yarr...Where's our next destination, landlubbers?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chancellor Awesome and Aurora appeared in a small alcove within the outskirts of the Awesome Forest. The nearby plants seemed to bow before Chancellor Awesome due to his excessive...awesomeness.
"Are you sure it is absolutely necessary to leave Awesome Land, Chancellor? Without us, the country is near defenseless! I would rather die and fight for my people than allow them to be taken over by that bi-
"Empress, mind your manners." Chancellor Awesome wagged a disapproving finger at Aurora.
"That bi...big meanie!" Aurora stomped her right foot on the ground to show her RAGE.
"While I applaud your fighting spirit..." Two otherworldly hands appeared in front of Chancellor Awesome and clapped. "...You must realize that your dying is the worst possible thing that could happen to the country in the long run. The opposing forces can easily overpower us, so we must escape! As I mentioned earlier, we can return once we've amassed the necessary forces."
"But...but..." Aurora couldn't think of any argument that could counter Chancellor Awesome's, so she crossed her arms and pouted, hoping that it would dissuade him from his plans.
With a heavy sigh, Chancellor Awesome shook his head and said "If you're really that concerned with the safety of your country, then I may have a solution."
Aurora brightened up and smiled, waiting for the answer...impatiently. "Well, out with it!" she demanded.
"Very well. The first part of my solution involves this...'disguise' if you will." Chancellor Awesome held out a set of designs for a large, thick, deadly looking armored suit. It held four holes arranged in a diamond shaped pattern and a helmet reminiscent of Garland/Golbez/Gabranth of the Final Fantasy series.
"It's a...very menacing suit of armor. I don't see how it will help unless you want to heart attack the army into submission." Aurora replied.
"Haha. Menacing indeed. It will allow me to safely escort you back here without being recognized. In addition, when combined with this..." He took out a design for an equally frightening sword that, from what the design said, could be concealed within a golden staff with an orb on top of it. "...the metal that comprises it allows for a certain magic. I'll be able to leave this body and spy on this area. You'll always know the goings-on of the country."
"R-really? I'll always have access to Awesome Land?" Aurora asked, incredulous.
"In a sense. But, we have to find the metal first. I say we ask Sir Nye of Dynasty City. He seemed to know a lot about various science related subjects, so various non-existent elements on the periodic table should be in his repertoire.
"Alright. Let's go then, Chancellor." Aurora snatched Chancellor Awesome's arm, as was common among the Veralice siblings, and flew off to Dynasty City.

(Wait, she can fly now?)
"Oi, Captain L!" Johnny called up to Leon. "Where are we heading off to?"
~~~~~
Bil Nye observed the two figures fly into the city and land in front of him. "to what do I owe the pleasure of a second visit from Chancellor" Awesome today?

(Wait, she can fly now?) "Oi, Captain L!" Johnny called up to Leon. "Where are we heading off to?" ~~~~~ Bil Nye observed the two figures fly into the city and land in front of him. "to what do I owe the pleasure of a second visit from Chancellor" Awesome today? ((She's been part dragon since her creation in Amnesia Journeys. DOES NO ONE READ THE CHARACTER BIOS ANYMORE? THE LONG BLACK WINGS THAT TRANSFORM INTO SWORDS ARE CLEARLY MENTIONED THERE.)) "Good evening, Sir Nye." Chancellor Awesome bowed to the de facto ruler of Dynasty City. Aurora just stood there, staring at Nye, not feeling the need to bow to one who was more or less her equal. A sharp glare came from C. Awesome to her, but he let it go to begin the conversation. "It has come to my attention that Awesome Land is due to be invaded by a mass army, and as you know we aren't very equipped to fight them due to just having a war with you all. I apologize on behalf of the former second in command for that." Chancellor Awesome bowed again, this time making Aurora bow as well through some unknown magical force. "What's more, you all aren't equipped well either, having just had your population nearly eliminated. Once again, I apologize." He bowed again. "As such, we would like to ask that you not aid our country in the upcoming war. Although you are a part of Awesome Land, I believe the opposing forces will concern themselves with the primary area." "In addition..." Aurora sharply glanced at Chancellor Awesome before clearing her throat and looking at Nye. She hovered up to his eye level. "The Chancellor and I will be fleeing the country. He says it's in my best interest to leave, returning only when I've gotten the necessary power to wipe out the invaders." "Correct." Chancellor Awesome added. "We will be leaving shortly after I bring up this other issue. After you mull all of that over, of course." Chancellor Awesome smiled warmly, although his masked face made all unaware of that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yarr! I don't know, lad! I just asked ye all the same thing! Although..." Captain L pulled out a very pirate-y map from his pocket and unfolded it. "There be a far off land that can be gotten to from complicated means...I can't reveal how to get to it, but we can get there if ye want." he replied gruffly. ((EDIT: THIS IS MY 2000th POST! CELEBRATE, MOTHER F**KAS)) |

"I suppose, we aren't really doing anything here." Johnny managed to sit up in his bed. "It's about time we went on another adventure, anyway."
~~~~~
"Fleeing the country?" Bill rubbed his chin. "I suppose it's better than death, though that seems to be only a temporary problem these days. Like the flu. Should I keep watch over the land while you're gone?"

Aurora gasped and began to say. "Leave the country in the hands of you separatists? Are you ki-
A sharp kick hit her calf and she growled in pain, silencing her protests immediately. "We would be honored if you would watch over the country while we're gone, Sir Nye." Chancellor Awesome hastily corrected Aurora. "There is also another matter we'd like to discuss." Chancellor Awesome glanced at Aurora, who was smiling despite her injured calf.
"Aurora is quite keen on coming back here sooner than I anticipate, so I agreed to use a certain magic to spy on things while we're gone. In addition, the requirements for this magic involve a type of armor, which will serve as a disguise should I need to escort her back here. The armor is made of..." Chancellor Awesome took out a poster with a picture and a bunch of specifications on Metallo Ridley from Awesome Land 3.
"A metal apparently known as..." Chancellor Awesome stared closely at the paper, bringing it up to his eyes. "Omnilium. The same type of metal I assume this dragon is made of. According to this paper, this draconic robot's exterior is very sharp and its armor is absorbent and near magical in quality. If I could make my own knight armor and sword from this metal, I would be able to use the 'spying' spell." Chancellor Awesome sighed deeply and continued. "Unfortunately, this metal is nowhere to be found. Any ideas where we could obtain some?"

"Well...the obvious answer is to go look for the ruins of Metallo Ridley, which are somewhere in the south I believe." He paused. "We could also ask Seth, but he's dead as far as I know.
"Ara! Can you spare a few of your men to go search Southern Awesome Land for the wreckage of a metal dragon?"
"Ah," Ara stuttered, taken by surprise at the odd question. "Uh, yes...Sure."
"Well, there you go. All we have to do is wait. Unless you know of a way to get in touch with Seth?"

"Ha!" Chancellor Awesome laughed. Aurora rolled around on the ground in pain, clutching her calf. "Are you suggesting we contact a dead person, Mr. Nye? That's impossible! From what I've heard about Awesome Land's history, he doesn't sound like the type who'd help us anyway."

Bill shrugged. "Gotta always have options."
~~~~~
Far to the south.
Ridley stared at the pile of scrap metal that was once Metallo Ridley, since Omnilium doesn't age or afraid of anything.
"It's like dejavu, only I don't remember this."
"Try not to go all soul-searchy on me before we get back," Jace grumbled. "Here. Grab this huge chunk of metal and-"
"THAT'S THE HEAD!"
"Ugh, fine. THIS one, then. It's the torso."
"Hmm...fine."
Jace swore under his breath as he hopped up onto the Pterodactyl's back. The flight back was unusually uncomfortable. Partly because of the extra weight (IT WEIGHED AS MUSH AT 10,000 SUNS!), but mostly because Ridley kept asking about the meaning of life.
Jace finally answered 42 and Ridley was silent after that.

Galiana sat on the deck, her face still covered in ice. Cybele was standing over her with a large piece of wood she had found. "Hold still....this won't hurt. Well, that's a lie. It'll probably hurt, but don't worry, I won't feel a thing."
Galiana was about to jump away in protest, but Cybele was quicker. She swung the board down with full force at Galiana's face. It collided, and Cybele heard a large crack. Galiana fell over unconcious, her hair ubstructing Cybele's view of her face.
"Oops....I hope that was the ice and not your skull." Cybele knelt down to turn the girl over. There was, indeed, a large crack in the ice. It hadn't been enough to make it break off, though. Cybele sighed and brought her arm up to hit again, but Galiana came into consciousness, and she jumped when she saw Cybele starting to swing again. She leaped from the ground and ran off.
"Hey, we almost had it! Let me try again! *sigh* No one ever understands my ethics."

"I'm so boooooooooooooooooored." Cow-girl was laying down on a cow's back. She had twenty of them now. Aside from Milkshake, Puddin', and Custard she now had Moosica, Maribelle, Bluebelle, Cream, Dairy, Latte, Cappucino, Espresso, Frapacino, Butter, Spots, Betsy, Claribelle, Starbucks, Coffee, Milkyway, and Coco. They all lazily wandered around Cow-girl.
"Hmm...wanna hear a joke?" She asked this from Latte, who happened to be the cow she was laying on. She mooed in response. "What do you call a cow in an earthquake?"
Milkshake tilted her head. "Moo?"
Cow-girl nodded. "That's right, a dead Hatian cow! Or was it Chilian. I can't remember which. Oh well.....I wonder where that one guy went..."

((Distasteful joke is distasteful))
"Hmm?" Alastor turned from his vantage point at the edge of the S.S. Awesome, noticing Cybele's less than savory methods of fixing a problem and Galiana rightfully running away. "What are you doing with that board?" Alastor stared at the board and, after a while, it was frozen solid. "I'll thank you kindly not to assault my patients, please." he warned.
"It doesn't matter much, fortunately. The ice has done its job, from the looks of it. I can begin surgery momentarily...once I get the necessary tools, of course."

((The actual punchline of the joke is in that post....it can also be found on the back of your milk carton from school.))
Cybele scoffed and Galiana had retreated behind Alistor to hide from Cybele. She seemed fuming now, however. A few mumbles could be heard behind the ice. If she could speak, she would have said "Tools!? Why did you do this to me if you didn't have any tools!?"

"You're welcome, Galiana. And since you've been our ally throughout this entire ordeal, I won't even charge you that much." Alastor smiled, deliberately misinterpreting what Galiana was actually trying to say. "We should be arriving...wherever...soon enough. I'm sure the necessary objects can be found there. Right, Leon?" Alastor glanced over at Captain L, awaiting a confirmatory nod. Captain L scowled and bellowed "YARR! The name is Captain L, scalawag!"
"See? Soon enough." Alastor finished.

Galiana nearly feinted. She had just lost her home and all her belongings. Not that they were that much. She was a servant after all.
Cybele placed a hand on her hip and raised an eyebrow. "Couldn't you at least take the ice off? She looks like she's freezing under there."

Alastor tapped his foot, crossed his arms, shook his head and sighed all in one fluid motion. "Just who is the doctor here, you fraternicidal maniac?" he asked, a hint of anger in his voice. "I will remove the ice when I feel it has done its job, which, as I said, shouldn't be much longer. I will appreciate you not commenting on my work unless you desire to go for another swim." Alastor smiled, though it was a creepy "I'm going to do my best to refrain from showing my anger and/or killing you A.K.A. Mr. Stallings-esque" smile. As he said that, a giant icy fist rose from the sea and pointed menacingly toward Cybele.

Cybele scoffed. "Whatever. She's your problem now." She walked off towards the railing of the ship, leaving a disgruntled Galiana behind. She looked up at Alistor and mumbled.

"What's that? You really shouldn't mumble because I can't understand a word you're saying." Alastor smiled, turning back toward the horizon to stare at the sea. Every now and then he'd raise a block of ice from under the ship, sending the S.S. Awesome flying into the air only to crash back down upon the ocean.

Because Austin apparently doesn't know how to move plot along, over the horizon came the familiar (well, only to Johnny and Captain L) sight of Verland, with it's lone shack.
"We're going to Veraland?" Johnny asked, puzzled. "But the shack just leads to the Veral Dimension. What kind of an adventure is that?" He remembered the last time he was here, under oddly similar circumstances. Dressed as a pirate, stowing aboard the ship with Dante (or Salvatore, I don't remember) and going to save Sarah.
That is, until Derpbot exploded. They left, and sank to Special Land.
...this story makes no sense.
