During the 9th century and what was referred to as,” The last hundred,” there was a perpetual dust storm that plagued Permea, as well as a series of massive earthquakes that devastated all the major cities, thus a beacon of hope thusly sprung up. The beacon was a dying father of 12 who decided with his last days to write letters to men he’d been in his life like this brief one,” Why did you anger so many, when you could have angered even more if you were smarter. You should have been a bigger bastard as death has no refunds or balances due. And that wife with the drooping breasts who always called you by the wrong name during sex for god’s sake why wasn’t their poison in her morning cake. That idiot son who hit you with his red ball should have never gotten away with only anger, do you realize there are cliffs said brats can be hurled over. Dear self when a woman looks fondly at you don’t dart your eyes away like a nervous idiot. Instead maybe you should try saying hello and giving her a compliment this was told to me by an ancient genius who had learned the tempered ways of women. So try it on random woman 3,000.” The writer of the 550 letters was Codasink Ye and his candid writings did a lot to boost people’s spirits and relieve their constant depression and fear. It was said it was the sun that couldn’t be seen and a clean air that their lungs couldn’t find.

  Everyone watched as the battle raged on for hours with no clear end in sight. There were thousands of destroyed Meheluxs and bloodied bodies everywhere you looked on Mobed’s streets. And many of the

  city buildings were burning or blown to pieces. There were scavenger Dracos birds, which were a paisley red, green, and purple football sized flesh eater, eating thru many of the corpses while no one cared to stop them.

  “ Look at all that death. I’ve known war, but never one waged so massively and so cruel. I would say we may be the only ones who’ll survive it,” said Famaron breathlessly as he tried to look away, but his eyes glared at the carnage greedily as he thought his life could be over before he knew it and he hated the Sorplecs more and more.

  Then Mench rubbed his shoulder and said warmly,” I wouldn’t worry about it there’s nothing we can do. I think we should all take a break from this and grab some dinner. What do you say?” asked Mench warmly as he frowned slightly and looked at everyone.

  “ Let’s eat, war is beyond tiresome. I’ve got a large dining hall with all the amenities. Follow me if you’re hungry,” said Siex as he started up the spiral staircase.

  “ If it’s cooked, I’ll eat it and if it isn’t I still will. Show me the way,” said Rinship slyly as he and everyone started up the stairs to the upper levels.

  Famaron glared at the destruction and then felt Ratie’s hand on his head and she asked,” Aren’t you coming? You’ve got to be hungry by now.”

  “ Ah…yeah yes I am let’s eat, it beats perpetual destruction,” said Famaron then he stood up and hurried up the stairs with Ratie.

  “ The war’s not going anywhere I’m sure of that,” said Ratie as she hugged Famaron and secretly worried about having to lose the war and deal with the repercussions.

  When they got upstairs they saw the grand dining hall that had 30 foot arching gold and alabaster ceilings, with massive diamond chandeliers hanging in mid air using anti-gravity that were shaped like the backend of an upside down Porsche. There were 18 black mahogany perfectly Y shaped tables in mini living rooms along the walls, that had food that would rise up thru a circular patch in the center after you choose your selection from a holographic menu that showed the actual food and serving size you would get. There were 4 statues of Siex in the center that were filled with every beverage known to man. The statues were 15 feet high and had a pair of light blue swirls that continually went from top to bottom and when you spoke your request the light darted into the statue and a secret slot opened up in his chest and out came your drink perfectly chilled. Each of the living rooms had brown leather recliners that could move in any direction at the touch of a button and were equipped with mood enhancing brain pathway soothers that started as you sat down. There were holographic windows that showed an actual view of the outside that you could change with a voice command to an area or landscape. There were throw pillows around the floor by the tables in case you wanted to lie down on the blue and purple soft synthetic grass. The walls of the room were see-thru plasma walls that could be turned into anything at all like currently a large sweeping meadow with Corvubs milling about. The room smelled of baked buttered bread and cooked steak and cheeses.

  “ This looks like a place for merriment. Let’s grab a seat,” said Famaron as he smiled and looked around the room.

  They sat at a table with Ohgood, Mench, Solcrist, Siex, Harci, Epam and Burnrih and Siex said happily,” I’ve got lots of food, but you’ll have to choose it yourselves. As I gave up reading minds when I got caught by a beautiful psychic,” said Siex slyly as he looked at everyone around the table and grinned.

  Then everyone brought up their holographic menus and began rifling thru the different dinners while Ohgood looked at a glazed Sarg hand filled with baked lasagna and a side of burgundy and black sweet potatoes and Ohgood said happily,” Well whatever it is it will look good in my stomach.”

  “ But what will you have for desert, handsome?” asked Mench as she held Ohgood’s left hand and grinned at him.

  “ A side of Mench, buttered and of course gooey. What do you think I was born without needs, get those clothes off,” said Ohgood in a stern voice as he spoke sarcastically and gently patted Mench’s breast as she laughed hysterically.

  “ We have them, but it’s imported,” said Siex smoothly as he laughed and looked over at Ohgood who laughed.

  “ Then I want two, but they both have to be obedient to me and not talk so much,” said Ohgood boldly as he joked and everyone laughed while Mench grinned and glared at Ohgood.

  “ Talk too much is it, boy I could knock your block off. But I won’t cause it would spoil what’s left of your looks hmmm, handsome,” said Mench sarcastically as she shook Ohgood’s hand and then grimaced as he grinned back at her.

  “ We can’t take you two anywhere, castles, fields, wars, when can Ratie get a break from all the jokes and innuendos hmm. I’d like to know before I eat one bite,” said Ratie as she frowned and shook her head.

  “ Give us, oh 58 hours of nonstop no holds barred Ohgood and Mench time, and then we’ll stop for 6, 7 seconds. So I’d go ahead and brace yourself for it cause it’s almost here, Ratie, I know you can’t wait!” said Mench jokingly as she rubbed her hands together and made a wide goofy grin as Ratie looked a bit

  unhappy with a frown on her face and then glanced at Ohgood who was laughing and she knew she’d been had.

  Then Ohgood turned to Mench and asked slyly,” Well poor Ratie needs a break so which is it, arm or leg? I could go either way.”

  “ I’m partial to leg, then she can’t walk, but if it were arm she couldn’t eat or fidget. I’ll leave it up to you I mean she’s your sister,” said Mench sarcastically as she mimicked Ratie’s hand gestures and frowned then shook her head as Ohgood laughed.

  “ That’s a good point, I’m leaning towards leg then she can’t run away when we try to blind her with salt. And if I know my sister she’s a sucker for face slaps and quick pokes in the eye. Right, huh, Ratie, have I got you pegged or what?” asked Ohgood sarcastically as he grinned slightly and everyone laughed.

  “ Yes, you are an idiot. And yes I agree you don’t know how to properly bath. And no I wasn’t the one who filled your breakfast with dragon crap when you left the room. And yes you wouldn’t have been missed by anyone, but the people made of air. And if I know my brother he likes swift kicks in the face and fast pushes at the top of staircases so everyone feel free to do just that,” said Ratie jokingly as she used a stern voice and the whole table laughed uproariously then she smiled and nodded to Ohgood who had his mouth agape and a f
ork pointed to his eye.

  “ So it’s leg, I thought so. Gee poor, Ratie, gets a bit crabbyhead when she’s dying for food,” said Ohgood smoothly as his face had glee wash over it.

  “ Who’s up for a bit of entertainment? I’ve got a few things you might enjoy, watch,” said Siex as he pressed a button on his remote and the room turned into a dark blue underwater cave filled with holographic Gorst fish.

  The Gorst fish was a purple and green football helmet shaped fish with a circle thru the center that was see thru and showed 6 tiny women known as Gorcams living inside a tiny house. The Gorst fish was 2 feet tall and wide.

  The walls of the room began to blaze with holographic blue flames and the ceiling was a cloudless night sky. The Gorst fish swam in and around everyone and kissed them on the lips and blew orange bubbles into their faces.

  “ This is so sick, I needed this badly,” said Famaron happily as a Gorst kissed him on the forehead and a pulsing red mass floated in and around the room.

  “ You’re not the only one, and look the meals we ordered are already here,” said Ratie as the center of the table opened up and all the different meals people had ordered floated up and everyone grabbed their meals and began to eat.

  An 8 piece orchestra rose up out of the floor comprised of green skinned robots and a purple skinned piano player, with all of them looking like Payloa Gleam.

  Payloa Gleam was the all but forgotten spiritual leader of the now extinct Gei people. He walked down city streets speaking loudly about religious ideas while a pair of beautiful female assistants wrote down every word. It became a series of 15 books each of which 1200 pages or more and included the passages,” Maybe the unforgiving masses who ask for God’s forgiveness could do the same for the sinister hatred they harbor for the people they can’t forgive. Then young minds of note won’t be besieged on every side by those who would try to unravel them. Then and only then when a mental truce is acquired can the heights of men exceed their possessions and castles of greed and the world’s one true purpose found and a massive lung forward to the time of knowledge and joy will come to pass,” and also the passage titled,” When I gave up dreaming,” that read,” When all desires for capture of lose and

  feelings of self sorrow have been ripped from my mind, then a new me emerged from the ashes of blame. I began to only work harder at everything because I knew it was God’s ultimate hope for me to be happy and embrace my love for everything in the universe. This is when I gave up dreaming of revenge and saw a less complex reality form around me.”

  “ How is the food everyone, too much poison?” asked Siex sarcastically as he stopped eating and looked at everyone’s concerned faces and smiled.

  “ Not enough for my liking. I need less tasty food and more collapsing lungs and heart. But I must say despite the lack of poison the Sarg head lasagna is scrumptious. My only critique is who’s this weirdo sitting beside me who smells of morning dump?” asked Ratie jokingly as she grimaced and looked sideways at Ohgood as he stopped eating and looked at her wide eyed as everyone laughed.

  “ It’s me, random homeless man Pudding Pump, you stiffed me once and I’ve been following you ever since. Can you spare some change?” asked Ohgood jokingly as he reached out his hand and waited while Ratie laughed and pretended to reach into her pocket.

  “ I can, but it looks a lot like air instead of money. Sorry I hope you don’t mind it’s the best I could do,” said Ratie as she pushed a few threads and some lint onto Ohgood’s hand and frowned as he looked at the lint and then ate it and Ratie said in disgust,” oh that is really disgusting, random homeless man Pudding Pump. Did you wipe your butt with that hand again?” asked Ratie as Ohgood cowered and looked away quickly and she said condescendingly,” I thought so it smelled like butt in here.”

  Everyone laughed and then Ohgood asked jokingly,” Dear, miss, would you marry me, I’ll promise to bath once in awhile?”

  “ No, Pudding Pump, you smell too bad. O.K. plus I like attractive men who aren’t you. So you see there’s no way it could work. Why don’t you run along and get yourself a good half eaten roll with the

  money I didn’t give you hmm,” said Ratie jokingly as she plugged her nose and looked away quickly as Ohgood smelt his hand and armpits.

  Then a single light blue rose appeared in the center of the table and began to turn into a bird. Then it flew in and around everyone at the table leaving a beautiful aroma behind. Then it burst into a thousand pieces and then pieces reformed on everyone’s plates as a piece of apple crisp and strawberry ice cream and Siex said coyly,” I think it’s time for dessert, everyone enjoy.”

  “ That was very sly, Siex, but who cares I’m hungry,” said Famaron then he began eating as did everyone else.

  “ I do what I must, I’ve always loved surprises, so surprise,” said Siex warmly as he grinned wildly and then started to eat his apple crisp.

  As everyone ate the music suddenly began to dance and rise in intensity by the orchestra. Everyone was having a great time and then a loud explosion shook the room.

  “ What was that?” asked Burnrih as he looked around the room for damage.

  “ That was war and we may be in jeopardy. Can we see it from here, Siex?” asked Solcrist nervously as he looked at Siex.

  “ Yes, of course just a moment please,” said Siex as he grabbed his remote then hit a blue button and a large hologram of the battle appeared in the center of the room that showed the battle still raging out of control. There were dozens upon dozens of flaming flying infernos filling the sky as a trio of Darpocks were blown to pieces by a Sands Mehelux. The blast sent their flesh flying in every direction.

  “ Looks like nothing’s changed. What do we do now?” asked Burnrih in a concerned tone as he eyed the devastation carefully as he walked up to the hologram.

  “ Why don’t we contact one of the Peom ships and see if they can explain the situation? At the very least we’d know who’s winning,” asked Harci as he threw a glance over to Rinship quickly.

  “ Consider it done,” said Rinship boldly then he reached into his pocket in his red robe and produced a dark green hand shaped communicator and then asked sternly,” Peom battleship Norcu how are we fairing in the battle?”

  Then a full size 6’5” hologram of commander Gini Haner appeared. Gini had dark purple shortly trimmed hair and dark brown eyes that took it all in. He was brown skinned and had a small thin nose and low cheekbones. There were the words,” Wrath is my endless gift,” tattooed on the nape of his neck. He was 286 pounds with a large belly and chest. He had on a tan cotton pair of pants and white silk dress shirt with no buttons that used tiny bits of magnetic thread to keep it sealed in the front. He also had on simple white sneakers.

  “ We are glad to see you, Rinship we were worried. I can tell you the bulk of our fleet is intact and the Sorplecs are massively devastated at this point,” said Gini as he looked at Rinship and then tried to send him a battle hologram and then popped in and out and then crystallized in front of Rinship.

  “ This is fascinating, so your saying much of the destroyed ships and Sorplec beasts are dead or dying this is thrilling, Gini, what do you estimate as the Sorplec death toll?” asked Rinship as he looked at millions of destroyed ships on the ground and thousands more on fire in the sky and smiled to himself softly as he felt a rush of glee and thought how wondrous a sight it was.

  “ In the billions, our losses are sizable, but ever since your ship smashed a hole in their lines we’ve been absolutely devastating them. I’d say if this keeps up they’ll be all but extinct within a few hours,” said Gini as he felt a rush of adrenaline watching a Sorplec battleship get blown out of the skies on a hologram of the battlesky and he smiled slightly.

  “ Hours, really wow things have changed for our favor,” said Ratie in amazement as she
smiled at Ohgood.

  “ We might even get ice cream, think of it,” said Ohgood jokingly as he looked wide eyed at Ratie.

  “ Then I am very happy with the state of affairs, Gini, keep at them. And, when there is a final gasp from the Sorplecs I want to know about it immediately alright,” said Rinship sternly as he tried not to smile and looked at everyone.

  “ It will be done my, king, and let’s send these scumbags back where they drank blood from forever,” said Gini snidely then his hologram disappeared and Rinship put away his communicator.

  “ Well we’re nearing the end to this horrendous chapter in all our lives. I would say that warrants jubilation and merriment,” said Solcrist happily implying a question as he began to dance and spin his staff.

  “ Parties are always full of good times, which is why I like ‘em. Who’s up for the party of all time?” asked Epam gleefully as he rubbed his own chest and then let out a yell.

  “ Who isn’t, let the anger fade, the purpose float out of our worried mind and let the tearful gaze find a clearer eye. Can we have some music?” asked Famaron as he smiled and shook Ratie’s shoulders and everyone cheered as the band began to play an upbeat number.

  “ Gee the way everyone’s cheering you’d think we were winning,” said Ohgood slyly as Mench smiled at him.

  “ What, oh what do you mean?” asked Mench coyly knowing full well he was setting her up for something as Ohgood grinned.

  “ They’ve got way more dead bodies in their piles then we have in ours. We’re beat let’s face it,” said Ohgood sarcastically in a frustrated voice as he put his hand to his head and Mench let out a sigh and he laughed.

  “ Do you wanna dance or don’t cha? I’m not getting any younger,” asked Mench as she rubbed Ohgood’s chest.

  “ What, with you, I’ve got a rep to maintain. Alright let’s foot it, but you’d better be grabbing my butt good and firm,” said Ohgood slyly as he raised an eyebrow and put his hands on Mench’s shoulders.

  “ You don’t have to worry about that. I know you didn’t last night hmm,” said Mench in a sultry voice then they French kissed and she said quickly,” c’mon, handsome, let’s have a bit of fun.”

  “ What is fun?” asked Ohgood in a low voice as Mench pulled him out in front of the band.

  They began to dance with one another as everyone continued to eat.

  “ So what now, Famaron, will you be interested in a position of power on Permea?” asked Harci honestly as he sat next to Famaron and took a sip from his wine glass.

  “ I’d like to think of myself as a powerful man, but does anyone want my leadership? The fact is I have no intention of taking control of Permea by force,” said Famaron plainly as he continued to eat and shrugged his shoulders.

  “ We want your leadership in more ways then you’ll ever know. If we wanted you to lead us would you?” asked Rinship honestly as he stood by Famaron’s table.

  “ Well would you?” asked Burnrih as he looked at Famaron intently and waited for his response.

  Famaron swallowed his food and looked up and saw everyone looking at him and thought for a second and then said,” Well, I would indeed, but only if it were a certified world government. Ya see obviously you would all still rule your peoples and your areas, but if we’re just gonna keep destroying one another while everyone tries to take over what’s the point? But, what we need to keep this planet safe from alien attackers, is a unified world army, like we’ve had for this particular war. See that’s the key to keeping us all safe,” said Famaron as he wiped off his hands on a black napkin and looked at everyone.

  “ And if we agreed to that very thing would you also agree to head up that government?” asked Harci intently as he looked at everyone and they nodded yes.

  “ Well, yes I would, but what of you, Tingue, do you still have aspirations of taking over Permea?” asked Famaron as he crossed his arms and looked at him.

  “ In light of recent days and events all’s I really want is to be able to live here in peace with my people. Is that a real possibility?” asked Tingue sincerely as he looked around the room and saw everyone nod.

  “ As far as I’m concerned and as I can see everyone here, that is certainly a possibility if not a certainty. I think all’s any of us want is to live here in peace and chase our dreams. So then it’s settled, I’ll rule over Permea and all past disagreements will be put to rest. I must say to you all, it is possible to forgive the sins of the past and move on, I mean if we’re going to pass on hatred from father to son or daughter, the madness and war will echo a thousand years into the future,” said Famaron sternly as he gave everyone a nod.

  “ Then it is settled, it’s a new age for Permea and us all. I think we all agree we’re stronger together than apart. Thank you, Famaron, it means the world to us,” said Harci warmly then he hugged Famaron.

  “ No thanks necessary, Harci, I want to tell you all one thing thou, there are many worlds out there that have a massive drive for conquering and destruction. For us to be safe we’ll need to be ready to come together in an instant as a unified army. Something like that takes planning and practice, because let’s face it the bringers of death are out there and it won’t be long before one or more of them find their way here. We can be completely safe and protected here, but not without planning. Alright, let’s have a bit of fun,” said Famaron happily then he began eating.

  “ You want some fun do you, I’ve got the perfect thing,” said Siex slyly then he pressed a burgundy button on his remote and down out of the ceiling lowered 2 Pemis women.

  The Pemis women were blue, turquoise, and white magical energy and looked like a real life queen named Gou Pictur with long flowing blonde hair and glowing dark green eyes, as well as large red lips. The Pemis had the ability to shape shift and do a variety of parlor tricks. They were 7’ 0” feet tall and very buxom. They had a pair of see thru holes in their stomachs that shot out soothing words of encouragement like,” When time is short, fond remembrances are long and thus cherished, so fear not.”

  Gou Pictur is the queen of the Coa and lives in the center lake Normot in a vast statue of her that stretches for 3 miles and rises 1 mile into the sky. The statue is green and reflects light so as to not be seen even at close distance. The queen is rumored to be a fierce and unsympathetic queen refusing to let anyone get in her way. Gou lost her 9th husband to a rare disease and was never the same again. She said once,” When I laughed at fate, I couldn’t see the humor in my own tears shortly thereafter. Now I only laugh at those who would be as foolhardy as I was.” She began working on a massive jet propulsion system that was attached to her ships over 20 years ago that involved splitting an atom to create unbelievable speed, but no one knows if she succeeded.

  “ What in the sex are those?” asked Ratie in disbelief as the Pemis began to spin and tiny droplets of blue energy shot out from them and when they landed on the tables they turned to chocolate candies and cherry gum.

  “ That is why it is a good day to be alive, Ratie, I say we give ‘em a chance,” said Famaron slyly as he grinned at Ratie then clapped.

  “ I am not amused, they look awfully trashy. Hmm, where’s all the justice in the world can somebody tell me please?” asked Ratie coyly as she tried not to smile and folded her arms.

  “ You want justice eh, well all’s you have to do is ask and there it is,” said Siex then he pressed a button and one of the Pemis shape shifted into a handsome man with long straight blonde hair, light blue eyes, and bulging muscles wearing a dark red leather suit with golden leather dress shoes.

  “ Ah, ah yeah that is ah…” said Ratie nervously as she eyed the man as he walked over to her and then said slyly,” I think I’m gonna dance, Siex, I’ll see ya thanks.”

  Then Ratie took the man’s hand and headed over
to where Ohgood and Mench were dancing. Then the female Pemis began spinning at tremendous speed as shards of light shot out of it in every direction and it made a thunderous rock and roll music. Then it shot up in the air and turned into a multi colored rain cloud, but had dozens of ancient faces lost to history, inside the cloud like Ean Gi.

  Ean Gi was a famous director of films from,” the many screams age,” that made a movie titled,” Kissed at birth.” The movie was about a runaway director who slowly loses his mind during filming and begins trying to destroy the psyches of all of his actors by giving them bad directions after they’d nailed a scene, as well as yelling great when they flubbed a line and saying they were perfect. Then as filming dragged into its 3rd year he began randomly swearing at all and any who drew near him. Then one day he told his lead actress that she either sleep with him of he’d blacklist her and she’d never work again. Then

  when she begrudgingly agreed he said it had to be in front of the whole crew. Then as they had sex he acted like she was disgusting him and abruptly stopped and shouted,” You’re career is over you ass faced skank!” Then Ean raced over to his trailer and returned with a laser machine gun and opened fire on the crew with the final death toll at 106 people. The film was later completed and went on to be the highest grossing film of all time while Ean was put to death by induced permanent passive insanity where he lived for the last 35 years of his life in a small home in the Hopest highlands north of Hamcer.

  “ Well now things are heating up. What do you call this thing, Siex?” asked Epam as he sucked the meat off a Sarg rib and smiled with a mouth full of orange barbecue covered teeth.

  “ It’s a Pemis it can do a variety of different tricks all of which are visually stunning,” said Siex as the female Pemis stretched out and red lightning bolts shot out of it at people, but stopped just short of hitting them and froze in mid air.

  “ Wow, I’m loving this, I thought I was gonna get shocked for a second there. Thankfully I’m still here to enjoy the chocolate. You should try some really,” said Famaron as he chewed one of the chocolates and watched the Pemis woman throw pockets of musical sound at each person.

  Then a pocket hit Harci and he heard an elderly woman singing a symphonic country song and he laughed and said happily,” This song is unbelievable. I’ve never heard anything like it in all my days.”

  Then Epam got hit by a pocket of music and heard a small boy singing a bedtime hymn from centuries ago and said brightly,” This is extraordinary, Siex. What a wondrous delight to enjoy.”

  “ Thank you, it was the most I could do, literally. That said there is still a bit more to be enjoyed. Watch this next bit,” said Siex slyly as he pressed a button and the Pemis turned into a green skinned beautiful woman surrounded by tiny spaceships that began to fly in and around her at lightning speed.

  Then the ships flew over to each table and a tiny crew of aliens came out of them that had white skin and bulbous brown haired light bulb shaped heads. The alien men and woman began waging a tiny battle with one another as they hid behind plates and shot lasers from their eyes. They blasted away at one another for several seconds until one got hit and fell dead. Then they gathered around the body and started to sing softly as the body floated above the table slightly. Then they let out a yell and began dancing on the bodies as everyone in the room burst out laughing.

  “ That’s the funniest thing I ever saw and I’ve seen it all. A fact I’m not particularly proud of, but true nonetheless,” said Rinship happily as he fought back laughter.

  “ Then I am very pleased, I have an after dinner drink you might all enjoy. Have a sip and let me know what you thought of it,” said Siex warmly then up out of the tables rose black and gold head shaped bottles of Bigmule.

  Bigmule is a traditional beer of Koacs only that in recent years it has been cast upon with a spell to add a thinness, a lack of aftertaste, and mild hallucinations, but only for a brief period. It was created by Dant Readu Bigmule a notorious partier and carouser. Dant once entered a bar stone sober at 7 in the morning and 12 hours later he had drank his way thru their entire stock and impregnated 14 women and a goat. He was also famous for his unbelievable strength and agility being able to do a handstand and walked across a 2 inch piece of white rope while being 1100 feet off the ground.

  Famaron grabbed a bottle of Bigmule and looked it over and asked,” Will this cause me to do wild and ridiculous things?”

  “ Yes, I assure you it will,” said Siex slyly as he looked over at Famaron.

  “ Good, I was just making sure. Let’s burn a little goodtime into our memories,” said Famaron happily as he grabbed his Bigmule and took a drink and then let out a yelp and said,” well, that’s tasty and boy am I buzzed.”

  Then Famaron began to see a red and green planet that had 8 large different colored moons surrounding it. He watched as the planet drew near and he could see a dozen massive statues of muscle bound Adonis’s holding a dragon in each hand. Then he saw thousands of skyscrapers stretched out over the surface of the planet for hundreds of miles. There was also a floating crystal blue river that snaked in and around the massive structures that had boats floating in it. There were thousands of small and large spaceships all thru the sky flying around like flocks of birds inside of tight formations.

  “ This is so marvelous to behold. What a great hallucination. You wouldn’t believe what I’m looking at,” said Famaron breathlessly as a smile crept across his face.

  “ I share that sentiment, I’m looking at a rare beast as we speak,” said Harci as he saw a Dagom running thru a grass covered street in between 2 large statues underneath a massive 1600 foot tall megaphone shaped structure in the middle of a busy urban area.

  A Dagom is a 19 foot tall tan fur covered pot bellied beast with a cylindrical head and glowing purple eyes. It also has a pair of blue circles floating in front of their eyes that give them the ability to fire soft magic out of their eyes at people. They also have long muscular arms and huge black hands with red fingertips that can change into wings when they leap.

  “ Really, well mine just started to follow a beautiful young lady as she walks thru this urban area. I can’t say I mind the view,” said Famaron as he watched the woman walk beneath the floating river and she tossed an empty drink box up into the water and the woman was named Babes Golari.

  Then over walked Hapgo Goqu, a short thin man with a gaunt face and he smiled at Babes and asked,” Can anyone live past tomorrow, Babes, or is it the rules of Femoum forever?”

  “ It’s not as easy as that. If Femoum wants us under his thumb for all time we have no recourse. Now, if he met an unfortunate end, I can’t say I’d complain or be able to find someone who would. Would you say this is true?” asked Babes honestly as she continued to walk and kept her city voice and eyes the same as did Hapgo.

  “ I want him dead, everyone wants him dead, but no one can get near him who isn’t his family or a soldier. So what chance do we have?” asked Hapgo in a concerned tone.

  “ This is fascinating, these 2 people I’m looking at are planning an assassination attempt. I wonder if they have figured out it takes bribes as of yet?” asked Famaron as he eagerly watched Babes and felt an affection for her and wished he could meet her.

  “ It always takes a bit of greasing the gears this I know. That hallucination sounds utterly fascinating all’s I got with mine were orange lights and circles that keep poking me in the eyes. Which I’m enjoying a great deal I must confess,” said Solcrist as he sipped his Bigmule and let out a long sigh.

  “ Our chance is that we have my father’s money, Hapgo, and with that we can do a lot of damage. All’s we need to do is buy off one of his cleaning crew or a soldier who’s had it and we’re in his morning coffee and he shakes the last few seconds of his life,” said Babes snidely as she stopped and looked o
ver at Hapgo.

  “ You are so devious, Babes, that’s why I love you. Femoum had a date with infamy and we may be able to take a free breath when it’s over. I’ll take care of the details you take care of the money,” said Hapgo happily then he kissed her and hurried off as Babes walked seamlessly into the foot traffic nearby.

  “ This woman is so devious that I love her to death. I knew they’d get to bribes they always do, huh,” said Famaron happily as he saw Ohgood and Mench walking towards him.

  “ Hey, Famaron, why do you have that smile on your face? Did you eat a dragon crap sandwich?” asked Ohgood jokingly as he stood at the edge of the table with his arm around Mench and smiling.

  “ Two actually, but they skimped me on the barbecue sauce. No actually I just drank a hallucinogenic beer and I’ve been watching this other world in my hallucination. I have to tell you this woman I’m looking at is plotting an assassination attempt isn’t that fascinating?” asked Famaron as he watched Babes hop on an air jet and speed away thru a series of tunnels as she eats a cinnamon raisin mini bagel.

  “ It is, maybe we should try a sip of your beer, Ohgood?” asked Mench as she grinned at Ohgood.

  “ Dream on, I only like the real world. The fantasy ones usually do more harm than good. And, I’m starving to death I need a bit of desert. How does that hit ya, Menchy?” asked Ohgood as he shook her gently then gave her a kiss.

  “ You’re right, we’ll stay in this world and have a bit of delicious desert. Oh I wanted to ask you is your cologne supposed to smell like B.O. or is that you?” asked Mench sarcastically as she burst out laughing and Ohgood rolled his eyes.

  “ Oh I wanted to tell ya, I borrowed some of your perfume this morning. I thought it was supposed to be outdoorsy. Now I see it was a grave mistake, oh so grave,” said Ohgood sarcastically as he acted very dramatic and Mench smirked and crossed her arms.

  “ OH, you must have grabbed my bottle of Sarg sweat. I use that to ward off flies. Well you can’t help it most of your head is filled with dragon dung,” said Mench jokingly as she put her index finger to her mouth and smiled.

  “ Again, I plan on having the dung removed and replaced with actual brains. We talked about this. And we also talked about removing that third eye from your back, but I won’t bring that up in front of people, oh oopps,” said Ohgood sarcastically as he spoke slowly.

  “ You son of a 2 headed Epcom whale. That third eye is private now I have to look away from everyone quickly as we make eye contact and sweat profusely as I tell myself it doesn’t matter. Boy I could bake you a cake and put a steel piece in the center, then laugh as your teeth chip and you scream in pain. Or, I could take you mountain climbing and cut your safety cord while I laugh in your face, which is it?” asked Mench sarcastically as she watched everyone laugh and she darted her eyes away as she made eye contact.

  “ I say let’s eat, you bubble headed boob carrying device. I need sustenance before I remember that I love you and your third eye, but not your extra arm that’s creepy,” said Ohgood sarcastically as he pulled up the holographic menu and let out a sigh and Famaron laughed loudly and Mench smiled then squinted at Ohgood.

  “ Did you mean that, about that you loved me or were you joking?” asked Mench softly as she looked at Ohgood who was checking out the menu.

  Ohgood looked over at her and said flatly,” Yeah yes I did mean it you’re not just another woman to me or even a really close friend. You’re what I was looking for, Menchy, and I thank Goarote I found you.”

  “ I love you too,” said Mench quickly then she felt Ohgood’s cheek and nodded softly while everyone cheered.

  “ That was touching and heartfelt. I hope you two get serious and make a life commitment, because let’s face it who else would have ya,” said Famaron slyly then he saw Babes get off the air jet into a dark marble cave to the right and hurry up a spiral staircase.

  Babes walked thru a series of statue arches of her father Ash and came into a small library of 15 cases of rare and ancient books that lined all 5 walls, with a Baatold shaped bed slash couch in the center of the room with a flat screen TV on the ceiling. Her father Ash was lying on the bed watching the day’s news as she strode up and asked sharply,” Are you trying to bore yourself to death or just me?”

  Ash kept his eyes on the news and then looked over at Babes with his mouth open and paused for a second and then said happily,” Both, then I’ve got someone to talk to in heaven. How is the day treating you? Did you head into town?” asked Ash as he pressed a button and the bed became a couch and propped him up and he smirked.

  “ It’s been a great day I was into the city and bumped into Hapgo. Now I hate to ask you, father, but I was wondering if I could have access to my trust fund as I need a sum of money to start my own company?” asked Babes warmly as she plopped down beside Ash and wiped hairs off his sweater.

  “ Oh that is a masterstroke, Babes, tricking the old man I love it,” said Famaron greedily as he watched Babes look warmly at her father and a smile crept over Famaron’ s face.

  “ It’s fine, Babes, I had just hoped you’d had saved that money for when you got married and started a family,” said Ash warmly as he grimaced and let out a sigh and then reached into his pocket and pulled out his black key to the family vault and handed it to Babes and asked,” what company are you starting?”

  “ It’s a cookie making company and I was going to use mum’s old family recipes to hopefully increase the family fortune. Thanks, dad, I’ve got to run I’ll tell you how it works out bye,” said Babes as she

  kissed Ash on the cheek then hurried out of the library and over to a bookcase and inserted the key and the wall swung open and revealed a massive pile of money, gold coins, jewelry, and artifacts.

  “ This is like a great movie, Siex, I need to get more of this Bigmule. This woman is a dynamo with her lies,” said Famaron happily as he smiled slightly and watched Babes go into the safe and grab a large black leather sack filled with money.

  “ I can get you all you need. We just got a large shipment from our distributor. What is she doing now, Famaron?” asked Siex intently as he lit up a cigarette.

  “ Thanks for the Bigmule, Siex, ah she’s coming out of a large safe with a bag full of bribe money as she plots to kill the ruler of her world. Nothing too exciting,” said Famaron slyly as he watched Babes step on a red disc in the floor then she spiraled down a flight of stairs into a large garage filled with hundreds of ships and racing vehicles.

  “ What about the war, Siex, have you checked it in a while?” asked Ohgood as he threw a glance to Siex.

  “ No, but I can do that right now. I’ll bring up the hologram and we’ll see,” said Siex then he pressed a blue button on his remote and it showed thousands of Darpocks and Meheluxs waging all out war with huge explosions everywhere you looked and Siex said sadly,” looks like the war has yet to end, but at least it appears we’re still in control of the siege.”

  “ It does look that way. Well we’ll worry about it later, but how did all the carcasses end up on fire on the ground there?” asked Ohgood as he eyed the 3,000 foot high pile of dead Sorplecs and Haborms as well as the people’s bodies engulfed in an orange blaze with shards of blue and green light launching out of them.

  “ I don’t know that’s very curious. I guess it doesn’t matter the point is they’re dead. How they ended up as a heap of flames will have to remain a curiosity,” said Siex softly as he drew a blank as he looked at the bodies.

  “ Well I think it was, Mench, who did it. I’ve had my suspicions all along. Admit it, Mench, it was you wasn’t it!” said Ohgood sarcastically as he gently poked Mench’s shoulder and she rolled her eyes and laughed.

  “ I’ll never admit it, you can’t catch me I’m too smart for ya. If I were you I’d be thankful you’re
not at the bottom of that heap. There’s always later, oh wait am I talking out loud,” said Mench sarcastically as she looked away quickly and shrugged her shoulders.

  “ Later is it, you’re caught now and it will cost you your life!” said Ohgood coldly as he was joking with Mench and pretended to choke her and she playfully gasped.

  “ Then I die knowing you didn’t outlive me ha ha ha,” said Mench sarcastically as she pretended to choke Ohgood and Siex could just smile.

  The Pemis cloaked the room in a thin green smoke that began to dance in and around everyone to a sad song, as a white circular portal opened up in the ceiling and a dozen Larapie birds flew into the room.

  Larapie birds were shaped like square balls, but with blue wings on the sides and an upturned long beak. They also had sapphire eyes that looked like a snobby person’s. Their feathers were seal black and silky and they released a series of musical notes as they flew that stood to sooth a person’s thoughts.

  The Larapies each landed on a different table and began doing flips as the smoke in the room danced around them.

  “ Well, Pemis man, your dancin’ skills are good, but I need to sit down. Thanks for dancin’ with me,” said Ratie as she looked up at him.

  “ It was a pleasure most kind, but never more eloquent,” said the Pemis man as he kissed Ratie’s hand and smiled at her warmly and she grinned wildly.

  “ Boy do you talk my talk. C’mere for a second I want to whisper something to you,” said Ratie as she motioned with her hand and he bent down and she kissed him passionately and rubbed his muscles and then said happily,” I couldn’t leave without tastin’ the goods. I’ll see ya, handsome.”

  “ Yes, beautiful, you shall,” said the Pemis man as Ratie walked away.

  Then Ratie did a sideways walk up to the table and let out a sigh as she sat down and said slyly,” Well that was amazing, I never thought a made up man would feel so real.”

  “ Did you get a little frisky dear old, Ratie?” asked Ohgood as he watched Ratie pat her belly and thought how funny she looked.

  “ More than a little, I went in for a big fat wet one. And boy was it big and I do mean fat. Then as he sucked out my soul from my mouth I felt a warm sensation in my nether region. And never have I felt so good before ohhoho,” said Ratie jokingly in a stern voice as her eyes grew wide and she glared at Ohgood as he fought back laughter.

  “ So it was a pucker by a sucker, sounds like Ratie to me. Did you at least get some grab ass?” asked Ohgood slyly as he picked up a piece of chocolate and started to eat.

  “ Yeah I got 2 hands worth of that giant’s butt and he squeezed my left cheek. So all and all it was tall and balls,” said Ratie jokingly as she brought up the desert menu and saw a strawberry and banana

  sandwich with a cinnamon and caramel glaze and then said,” oh this looks like the dish. Kiss my diet goodbye.”

  “ I didn’t know you were on a diet, what are you trying to lose, brain cells?” asked Mench jokingly as Ohgood laughed loudly and almost choked on his chocolate.

  “ No friends, I figure another 30 pounds and everyone will be too embarrassed to hang out with me so they’ll abandon me. Then I can get back in shape and get new friends who don’t know the real me,” said Ratie slyly and jokingly as she grinned and watched as her desert rose out of the center of the table then let out a sigh.

  “ Which is, the real you that is?” asked Mench slyly as she eyed Ratie’s desert.

  “ Oh you know somebody who has a wealth of knowledge and smarts, but never has anything wise to say, because I’m bored with trying to impress people,” said Ratie honestly as she hugged her desert and then started to eat it.

  “ What about ax murderer and random old person pusher in front of trains, that I thought you were. Was that all a hoax?” asked Ohgood sarcastically as he burst out laughing as Ratie crinkled her nose and rolled her eyes and smiled.

  “ All that too of course, but I can’t talk about it or I might get arrested, la de da,” said Ratie jokingly as she ate and looked around nervously and Mench and Harci laughed while Ohgood smiled.

  “ I’m turnin’ you in you lawbreaker babelet. I knew I’d catch you and now I have ha ha haa. Quick, Ohgood, grab her hands and bind them,” said Mench dramatically as she spoke sarcastically and pointed to Ohgood who gently grabbed Ratie’s hand and kept the food from her mouth and he ate it.

  “ Hey that was Ratie food. I’m near death and it looks like I may go to jail so stop eating all of my tasty goodness,” said Ratie jokingly as she spoke slowly and grimaced and looked at Ohgood and pouted.

  “ Don’t worry about that, they have the tastiest gruel in prison, you’ll love it,” said Ohgood sarcastically as he ate Ratie’s desert.

  “ I’d heard about that gruel, does it still have troll nuggets and gallons of spit mixed in?” asked Ratie as she looked calmly at Ohgood and Mench who laughed.

  “ It’s not so much that spit as the back hairs you’ll love. They give it a nice texture you can really savor in between throwing up and violent convulsions. I’ve had it and it’s way better than dragon eyeball sandwiches,” said Ohgood sarcastically as he ate all of Ratie’s desert.

  “ Which I love, well now I can’t decide. Do I keep eating my delicious desert or go to jail and eat gruel. Hmm I think I’ll sing, me mo my me mo mooo,” sang Ratie as everyone laughed loudly.

  “ Now we can’t send you to jail that singing would be cruel and unusual punishment to the other Egols,” said Famaron slyly as he looked over at Ratie as he watched his hallucination of Babes riding in a seal black racing Hovacycle down a wooden statue lined road at unbelievable speed, as dozens of 2 inch red feathered Agia birds flew beside her.

  Agia birds had no beaks only a round hole that puffs of smoke shot out of constantly. They also had 3 sets of wings that gave them super speed. There were 2 large blue eyeballs on the bottom of their faces and a slit on top that made them aerodynamic.

  Babes pressed a button on her control panel and a road opened up ahead of her that she drove down into the ground on, then it closed up.

  “ Where are we heading gorgeous? Secret rendezvous I suspect,” said Famaron greedily as he watched Babes riding thru a dark brown marble hallway then she stopped abruptly and was flung head over end until she landed softly in stride and walked over to a piece of the wall and touched it.

  Then Babes went thru a secret passageway and into a loud and raucous party with 300 people laughing and carousing while a pair of dragons lay in between the party goers. The room had 15 black marble tables around the room that were shaped like a flat doorknob and had tiny gargoyles performing on the tables as mini rock bands. There were black leather chairs around the tables and sound dampeners surrounding each, so each group of people could only hear their bands. The walls were covered in a dark green soft grass with glowing red, blue, and yellow holograms of paintings every few feet with one of a large head from behind.

  “ Hey, Babes, how’s the world treatin’ ya, you dead yet?” asked Solstice Fones as he walked up and gave Babes a kiss on the lips and took her hand.

  Solstice had strawberry blonde medium length thick hair and a wide widow’s peak. He had dark brown eyes and a large arching nose with a scar across the bridge. He also had a tattoo of a dragon being ridden by a naked woman on his left cheek. He was 5’10” and 176 pounds, but not all muscle. He had on a black dress suit and dark brown sneakers, as well as a large golden watch and dark blue sunglasses.

  “ Say, no but I’m still hoping,” said Famaron quickly as he grinned and watched Babes smile.

  “ No, but I’m still hoping. Don’t you think Lada needs a new ruler, Solstice?” asked Babes honestly as she gave Solstice a stern look.

  “ She called her planet Lada. What an odd name for a planet. No m
atter, she used my line that is a smart woman,” said Famaron as he sipped his Bigmule.

  “ Have we any reason to think we can change that?” asked Solstice anxiously as he looked intently at Babes.

  “ I don’t want to talk about it until I see Hapgo. Do you know where he is?” asked Babes as she looked around the room and then spotted him and said quickly,” wait I see him he’s into the booze again, oh Hapgo.”

  “ Let’s head over to him,” said Solstice then he and Babes waded thru the crowd and made their way to a table beside the left wall where Hapgo was sitting drinking Blacgod whiskey.

  Blacgod is an ancient whiskey unearthed in an expedition 30 years prior as an 1800 foot hole was found that led to a series of 300 cases of Blacgod in a large chamber.

  “ I’m not the man you married 30 years ago, no du I’m 30 years older. So then she said she thought I wasn’t serious about our relationship so that’s why she cheated. So I said, of course I was serious, seriously deluded to love a woman with only one leg cause I thought it’d make it harder to run out!” said Hapgo drunkenly as he spoke to the troll band on his table and they looked a bit scared of him.

  “ Hey, Hapgo, she ran out on ya again didn’t she?” asked Babes as she sat down beside him and put her arm around him.

  “ More like hopped, but it still hurts. Why can’t we get it right?” asked Hapgo then he went to take a drink of Blacgod and Babes took the bottle from him.

  “ Wow this is a messed up scene I’m watching here. And this woman is so gentle and kind that I’m completely drawn to her, hmmm,” said Famaron softly as he eyed Babes intently.

  “ It’s not your fault, Hapgo, she’s a lying cheating skank and you should have dumped her years ago,” said Babes sternly as she looked around the room.

  “ But she’s way too beautiful to just dump. I have needs and those needs include daily sex with beautiful needs. How can I change what I am?” asked Hapgo drunkenly as he pounded the table.

  “ Which is?” asked Babes reluctantly as she tried not to laugh.

  “ A sex machine, I can’t bear to go 5 minutes without sex. Although once I went 7, please, Babes, have sex with me right now I need a friend,” said Hapgo drunkenly as he looked longingly at Babes and she frowned slightly.

  “ I would, but I won’t. But there’s good news to report I got the money we needed,” said Babes happily as she rubbed his shoulder.

  “ Money, how can’t we talk about sex at a time like this. Let me help you out of those itchy clothes and into a Hapgo naked jacket. It’s soft and warm and has a hard portion too, hmmm,” said Hapgo drunkenly as he reached for Babes breasts and she pulled away.

  “ I’m fine, no thanks thou. Didn’t you hear what I said we can go thru with the plan now?” asked Babes as she smiled at Hapgo who was trying to grope her.

  “ Oh right the plan, yeah I’m overjoyed we should have sex to celebrate,” said Hapgo slyly as he grinned mischievously and looked at Babes.

  “ Are you still watching some hallucination, Famaron?” asked Ratie as she watched him laughing loudly and she smiled.

  “ Oh, Ratie, this is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. There’s this drunk guy hitting on his friend in a persistent manner that is cracking me up,” said Famaron in between laughs as he held his sides in agony.

  “ Yeah drunk guys sure are funny I’m laughing at one right now ha ha ha ha,” said Ratie jokingly as she mimicked Famaron and Mench and Ohgood laughed.

  “ It’s too bad we all can’t see your hallucination,” said Harci as he smoked a light cigarette.

  “ Yeah, then we’d know what a boob Famaron is for laughing at something that isn’t funny,” said Ohgood jokingly as he looked at Famaron and held his stomach and threw back his head violently while he had his mouth wide open and Famaron shook his head.

  “ Someday I’m gonna find this planet Lada if it exists and marry this woman Babes, because she is beyond beautiful mind, body, and soul,” said Famaron happily as he eyed her smiling at Hapgo and thought of meeting her.

  “ Lada, I’ve heard of a planet Lada. It’s many months from here, but it can be reached,” said Harci honestly as he glanced over at Famaron who looked at him wide eyed.

  “ You’re kidding?” asked Famaron in shock and disbelief.

  “ No, not at all, but how could this be the same world from your hallucination?” asked Harci as he stretched his back out and sighed.

  “ Well, I don’t know, but if it is I’d have to go. I mean I know this is the woman for me. Do you know anything about the people there or their ruler?” asked Famaron intently as he ignored his hallucination and looked at Harci.

  “ Femoum or Femout of something is his name. I don’t know…” said Harci before being cut off by Famaron.

  “ Femoum, that’s what Babes called the man she wanted to kill. Can this be happening right now? O.K. look ah…when this war is over I’m going to Lada and any of you that wish to come are more than welcome,” said Famaron implying a question as he thought of Babes and a smile crept across his face.

  “ I’ll do anything to get away from Mench,” said Ohgood slyly as he tried not to smile and Mench poked him gently in the side.

  “ You would leave me wouldn’t you. Typical, all men want what they don’t got. I’ll go as well, Famaron, then I can murder Ohgood and get away with it,” said Mench jokingly as Ohgood looked at her wide eyed and put her in a soft headlock as she laughed.

  “ Why don’t we all go, get away from Permea for a while? It could do us a good bit and provide us with an adventure,” asked Solcrist as he continued to eat a large steak sandwich and shrugged his shoulders.

  “ He’s right it would be a welcome distraction,” said Epam as he looked and saw everyone nodding yes.

  “ Then it’s settled, after the war we’ll embark for Lada. I only hope it’s sooner than later. Which reminds me let’s have a look and see how things have transpired,” said Siex then he brought up the hologram of the war and saw a half mile long trail of green flames dancing thru the sky with thousands of ships and dragons engaged in a huge battle.

  There were dragons with large chunks blown out of their sides shooting flames from their mouths at Peom wizards on Sargs backs, lighting them ablaze. One wizard had his head turned to ash as he fell off the side of his dragon and plummeted to the Bloodlet below, only to be eaten by a Palaman lurking just below the surface.

  “ Well, nothing’s changed, but everything’s different. Can you believe what we’re seeing?” asked Siex nervously as he eyed the devastation.

  Then a massive gargoyle on a flaming Konno shot up and into a Mehelux blowing the Mehelux to pieces and the gargoyles head went flying up into the air and was shot by random laser fire from a Sorplec Mehelux.

  “ Well, we might as well get comfy, this could take longer than we thought,” said Ratie anxiously as she tried to conceal her fear by not making eye contact with anyone.

  “ It may take an eternity if we’re not careful. What do you think is happening, Famaron?” asked Epam as he shape shifted into a half lion half man and glared at Famaron.

  “ Ah, well I can tell you in wars there always comes a point when an army who’s near defeat makes a last gasp. The Sorplecs are fighting desperate now look there,” said Famaron sternly as he pointed to a Sorplec on a dragon who blew themselves up next to a Dirki battleship and blew a hole in it and then Famaron said firmly,” see they’re using suicidal methods now. That always signals an army feeling they are about to lose.”

  “ That’s terrifying, should we worry we could actually lose?” asked Mench as she watched a Mehelux torn to pieces by a massive pair of Zamtru’s and she gasped.

  “ You should always worry when wars are in progress, but in this case I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t because they?
??re desperate and a desperate army can fall at any moment. I think I’ll send in a spell to hit those Sorplecs on the left there,” said Famaron calmly then he walked over and grabbed the staff of Simis and raised it and shouted,” Med sogunda!”

  Then a 100 foot tall Zamtru appeared with a magic scrambling whip in front of the ship, that was glowing purple in color. It also had a belt around its chest filled with recasting spell grenades that could turn anything they hit into a variety of things from baked beans to velvet hats.

  “ We’re gonna have some fun now,” said Harci boldly as he watched the Zamtru rocket towards the Sorplecs on a trio of red dragons.

  The Zamtru flew thru the chaos of the battlesky and whipped at the closest Sorplec and hit his dragon cutting a swath thru its head by scrambling its magic. The dragon then started flying erratically and crashed headlong into a Konno splattering on the side of it. The Sorplec wizards on its back were flung forward and into a laser stream that ignited them burning them to ash. The Zamtru then grabbed a recasting grenade and threw it at the other 2 Sorplecs dragons. When it hit it turned the first into a massive imploding burst that blew its rider to pieces. The second was turned into strawberry jello causing its Sorplec wizard to fall into the dragon shaped jello and plummet to a Mehelux 700 feet below and he was killed on impact as the jello splattered on a pair of Haborms who were flying thru the air with jet packs and sent them into a tailspin. As they plummeted to the ground they fought valiantly to right themselves as they narrowly missed hitting ship after ship.

  “ Those two wizards are in trouble, Famaron,” said Solcrist quickly as he eyed the Haborms.

  “ Not for long,” said Famaron boldly then he raised his staff and shouted,” Dando acmo!”

  Then as the wizards were about to be impaled by a rocky hill a massive red and green orb raced over and got between them and the rocks. They bounced off it and went high into the air and as they did their jet packs turned on again and they flew back up to the battlesky and began blasting their laser canons at a large Sorplec Mehelux.

  “ That really helped them bounce back,” said Ohgood slyly as he grinned and everyone rolled their eyes as Mench laughed and patted his chest.

  “ Well is there more we can do to help?” asked Solcrist softly as he thought of using another spell.

  “ Not at this point things are getting more and more chaotic by the moment. I’d say we leave things as they are and check back again in a little while. That said, everyone be ready to fight to truly end this war,” said Famaron boldly as he eyed a large Sarg eating a Sands wizard whole and grimaced at the sight of it.

  “ I’m ready, they want some Ratie fury that’s what they’ll get,” said Ratie boldly as she shook her staff and nodded slowly to everyone while Ohgood grinned slightly.

  “ There’s no way they can handle you, Ratie, you’re just too sassy. I’ve heard of many wars decided over just sass. That said, I don’t want to be there when Ratie finally snaps cause it will be total devastation,” said Ohgood sarcastically using a dramatic deep voice as Ratie smirked and rolled her eyes.
