*Neil*
the last thing he heard from Reebo
was that Kat had arrived, and that they were going to try to save Morden,
he could wait.. *or you could escape yourself, get your lazy butt of that
bed and DO SOMETHING!!!* "!! Wow Booji, turn down the volume..§heesh..
I am only the shop keeper, what the hell can I do??!!?" *have you already
forgotten your secret?* "Uh.. remind me, it's a secret very well hidden...
to well" *WLFTO/WDFTO* After exclaiming those letters booji dissapeared
again "oke, I know that english is not my native tongue... but what the
HELL did that mean"
The door to his cell opend as a
suit stepped in with the new Suits inc. magazine. The suit looked rather
young, must be a new recruit.... neil decided to test this suits intelligence.
"Do you know what WLFTO/WDFTO means?" the suit looked puzzled, and obviously
nervious. Could it be that he was so new that he feared booji more then
the others? "er... I..I have now idea? W..w..w.. were is it from?"
"from one of your Suit inc. magazines,
it's in that big pile there in the corner, be my guest and read it, I think
it is issue # 13" The suit went to the corner and started searching through
the magazines, suddenly he stopped.. " wait a min we never publish issue
# 13!!!"
-Whack!!!!Crash!!!!!-
Neil stood over the unconscious
suit "Always comes in handy, those sollid wood chairs..." He suddenly remembered...
"We Live For The One/ We Die For The One!!!!" He silently stepped out of
his cell into an empty office.. "Aaaah Freedom"
*Reebo*
While Kat and an associte were
freeing morden, I was patroling the halls for gahaildi and garibaldi's
cells them suddenly crash the roff came in, Zooty!! I screamd. Zooty Zoot
Zoot! Together we patrolled down the halls, finding nothing. Then as we
rounded a corner six suits met us and three more walked up behind us together
we pulled out our pikes and took out 5 of the suits, but they still had
us out numbered. Then a uniformed figure walked up behind them Sirs, this
is for you it is from the wardrobe commission, sign here? BOOM! the suits
were history! Zoltar! Where have you been? Dilivering mail, where else?
right help us look for garibaldi and gahaildi. OK hay there's neil! wait
up neil!
*Mr Morden*
The suit who was sure of himself
was still talking. Morden wasn't listening to him, she was trying to find
a way to get out of this. She sensed something. Someone was using a light
refection device. She saw one of the suits being pulled off into the shadows.
She was the only one to see this. She heard chattering. Shadows? she thought.
<Patience. Give us a moment.>
<How did you get in?>
Garibaldi charged out, firing all
the while. "Where have you been!?!" Morden shouted over the ppg fire.
"Occupied." Garibaldi smiled.
She shook her head. One of the
Shadows cut her hands free. She started to the desk for her pike, but a
half dozen of the suits converged on her. She fought them off with her
Associates help, but not before taking the syringe in the neck.
Slowly, she approached the desk.
She took the pike. The suit began to cower. She swing the pike at it and
hit him across the face. "That's for the Spice Girls. Baldi, finish him
off. He's already ruined my jacket enough." Garibaldi shot him.
"Are you okay?" he asked her.
"Peaches. Why do you ask?" Then
her eyes glazed over she was hit the floor.
*MajorButtons*
When she finally regained consciousness,
MajorButtons found that she was lying at one end of a long corridor. At
the other end she could see 2 dead Suits with a large spider-mousie leaning
over them, brandishing its pincers.
"Oh wow!", she thought, "spiders
are my favourite prey. I must catch this one!"
MajorButtons stood up and proceeded
to slink down the corridor, stealthily. Oh boy, was she going to have fun
with this one!
As she neared the spider-mousie,
she suddenly realised that it was quite a bit bigger than she had previously
anticipated. It turned its head towards her and chirped like a bird.
"Well, I can't lose face now. I'm
going to have to go for it", the little cat thought to herself. Her back
arched, she bared her teeth and hissed.
A bird-like voice entered her head.
It sighed and spoke in a sarcastic voice: "Oh yeah, I'm soooooo scared.
*Please* don't hurt me."
MajorButtons gulped but refused
to back down. She still had her pride.
The spider-mousie said in her head,
"Look, stop messing about! I know for a fact that you've only got 4 and
a half teeth - it's not as if you're going to do me much damage, is it?!"
"Who told you about my teeth?!"
MajorButtons bristled with indignation and glared at her prey.
"I'm one of the First Ones and
I know everything," the spider-mousie answered, "I'm also an associate
of Morden and she sent me to rescue you."
"Oh, well, in that case...I suppose
I'll let you off. Hope you realise how lucky you are that I didn't attack
you!" MajorButtons sighed with relief and pretended to wash herself.
"Yes, that's right," sighed the
spider-mousie. <Please can I hurt the little upstart...just a wee bit,
please?> the spider-mousie begged Morden. There was no reply so it led
MajorButtons out of the main corridor towards its companions.
*Garibaldi*
Garibaldi stared down at Morden,
crumpled on the floor and half-asleep, giggling in a drug-induced stupor.
Sighing, he dropped down beside her and looked at the Suit-issue PPG in
his hand. 2 shots blinked the display.
He fired both at the television,
and for the first time in almost a week he wasn't being asked what he really
really wanted.
"I was too late."
He didn't remember anything except
a couple of very good insults and something about gok-burgers. Upon waking
it had all seemed like a dream, but now he was confident that it was indeed
a reality. Something was going on, the least of which made sense.
He scratched at the cast on his
shin. From the looks of it he had been shot in the leg. His arms, neck,
and curiously his butt hurt like hell, and he had yet to regain feeling
in his feet. The world seemed to carry a spinning quality and even the
darkest rooms seemed brightly illuminated and friendly.
He tossed the still-warm PPG across
the floor and picked up Morden. Hobbling out of the room, he was surprised
when a small watch-like device materialized out of thin air and landed
on the ground before him. He recognized the device, but quickly set Morden
down and scanned the halls for a presence.
<"It is alright, He Who Kills,
it is us.> Garibaldi breathed a sigh and picked up his Photonic Displacer.
<"Much is going on. I cannot
find the others.">
"How many others?"
<"Many."> The Shadow materialized
and picked up the glass-eyed Morden with its pinchers. <"I will take
her to VOR. When she awakes she will need familiar surroundings or she
will be lost. We will return soon."> With that the two disappeared and
Garibaldi listened to the fading tink tink tink of the creature's feet
against the floor.
He cloaked and moved down the halls.
Coming across a large band of Suits, he did his best to step over the doughnuts
littering the floor. The Suits were all sitting on recliners and reading
newspapers. One of the suits seemed prominent, and upon approaching him
Garibaldi could see a keycard and PPG strapped to his belt. Quickly and
stealthily grabbing them, he dizzily mowed the group down with red-hot
blasts,
being very careful not to adjust
for the coriolis effect.
*Enitl'Zha*
Enil'zha crawled, wounded, in a
race against time, with a bunch of suits up her neck... luckily, her faithful
goks were still with her... she smiled briefly at the thought. She have
been gone for a long long time... she knew about this!!!! they must be
warned!!!But have they even noticed she was missing for weeks??? Or, have
they bought into the clone thingy???she could still remember how it all
began, weeks before the others knew... and the horror that held her at
the true plans of the suits!!!she felt herself slipping away... one of
her goks brushed himself against her feet, murming softly... she remembered...
*several weeks before Neil/s kidnapping* It was a hot day, and Entil'zha
was brushing one of the goks. It was another normal day. She was thinking
of the fidding. She must ask Bo to fix the water. it was a little to high
for the younger goks... suddenely, she noticed something was wrong. the
goks stoped playing, and listened in attention. she looked, worried, to
see what was bothering them. what was that??? could it be... surely no,
this close to the temple??? but yes, she was sure now. a purple and green
fish printed suit was snoofing alround!!! This isn't right. They won't
get this close, unless... unless... cold fear held her heart, but she didn't
wanted to aleart the others, in the middle of their prair training. *I'll
look into it myself*. She left the temple lion to guard while she's gone,
and the carebear to stay with the young goks so they won't be scared...
She took her finest goks, and went to follow the suit. at first, he didn't
seem to notice. but than, as he saw her, he got an evil grin on his face.
"NOW!!!" suddenely, everything turned black... when Entil'zha woke up,
she was in what appeared to be a mobile lab. and there were suits everywhere!!!!
they noticed that she was awake, and smiled, evily. they made way to the
one that appeared to be their leader, a suit in light-green colored hideus
jacket. "welcome", he said "to your end". than, he moved, showing me...
ME??? but it WASN'T me... my goks started growling nearby, where they were
being held. The Entil'zha's eyes were... dark. empty. The leader turned
to her: "Go now, and tell us their weak points. This should not be to hard.
Entey, erm, Entazh... erm... whatever, spends most of her time with her
goks, praying, and making little buckets and bucket paintings to decorate
the temple. She walks everywhere, but not really noticed by most, as they
do not want to bother her in her animal caring" disgusted expression came
on his face."This makes her ideal for this purpose. We must know as much
as we can tward the final..." he stoped, looked at me, and an evil grin
came on his face. the others began to cheer. "but we
must get rid of THIS one. she is
no use to us. but, we will give you ONE chance." two suits came, holding
the uglyest suit i've ever seen. I realized it was about in MY size...
"WILL YOU JOIN US, AND SHOW YOUR FRIENDS THE WAY???" "NEVER!!!!!" i shouted.
" And this... this ... thing that you're planning won't work!!!!! Booji
will guard us!!!!!!!!!!!" they all began laughing. "I'm afraid not, my
dear"... he
said. "take her away!!!! prepare
for stage 2!!!" a bunch of suits came from behind, as i could hear my goks
whining... they gave me some tranq. I tryed to fight, as the darkness fell
on me... I woke up in a dark chamber, that seemed to be moving. We were
in a car, i understood. I was tied with yellow-brown ties on my hands and
legs . A few suits were in, talking between themselfes. I couldn't quiet
hear what they were
saying, but the words "revenge",
"destruction", and "once and for all" were heared. *whatever this is, it
can't be good. i MUST warn the others!!!* "well, i see that you are awake"
turned to me one of the suits with an unpleasent smile. "it's about time.
we're here". my goks were in a sac, that was taken off and carryed by 2
suits. They gave a hell of a fight, but there was little they could do,
and little that i could do. I was marched into a dark, tall building. *this
must be their secret headquarters* i thought to myself. I was blindfolded,
and could see nothing. the cover iched... poliaster, i guess. *what are
they up too???* i wondered, when we stoped. *we're here* i thought. *whatever
"here" is*. but i was not afraid, to my surprise. things looked dark, but
i knew Booji was with me. than, i remembered. MY SECRET WEAPON!!!!! THAT'S
IT!!!! the time is very near. I was left near my goks, when the suits turned
aside, preparing something. *perfect!!!*
i thought. slowely, i moved my tied hands into my secret pocket... YES!!!!
IT WAS HERE!!!! very slowely, i moved tward the sac... and managed to put
the wine plate in. The affects were immidiet. 15 angry goks tore the sac
apart, and than came for the suits. *slash*... *BANG*... *thud*. One of
the goks helped me to get out of the ties. *thank Booji i trained them
to do that!* i thought.i stood up quickly, and began walking, followed
by my goks. it took me a
while to calm them down, but in
the end we were ready to go. I sneaked down a dark hall, and sent a gok
forward to see if it's clear to go. I sneaked into a room, and found a
torn peice of note. "**ed... con.' it said. i couldn't understand it, and
than i remembered. THE CON!!!!!!!!!! How long have i been out??? WHAT???
It's about to begin!!!!!I had no time to warn the others, i had to go emmidiatly!!!
I came to
there, and tryed to buy tickets
to 'In The Begining'. "what do you mean 'SOLD OUT'???" I shouted at the
salesladuy. DAMN!!!!!! whatever they were up to, i couldn't tell. they
didn't want me to see the movie... and there was nothing i could do!!!!!
Depressed, i sat down. than, i saw a glowing bucket in the distance. "go,
eat. You must be stronge. I will take care of the rest". Comforted by the
words, i went to eat. when i came back, there was a 2nd showing of 'In
The Begining', thank Booji!!!!! from that point and on, it was quiet. i
had to stay, knowing the suits were up to something. 'Thirdspace' went
clear... nothing had happened!!!!!!As i went back in the bus, i noticed
that there was an unusuall number of suits in there.*could it all have
been a trap t lure me in???* I thought, as the suits began to move. *oh,
no, not again*... The cell was dark, and had wallpapers that made me thank
for the darkness. My goks were gon. i was held in there for weeks, held
in the silence. Than, a few suits came and took me out quickly into a room
with a strange device, vagouly resembling the brain distorting one that
was used on Sheridan. "came to see our final victory?" asked the light-green
leader. in the room's corner my goks were held, guns pointed to them. "you
move, and they'll get it" said the suit, sencing my thoughts. as the suits
hooked me
to the machine, i thought i could
hear someone screaming. *Neil/s???* than, i started screaming too as they
hooked me into the machine and showed me their plan. the leader laughed
evily.*NO!!!!! WE'RE DOOMED!!* I cryed in my heart.than,light ingulfed
me... Booji came. "YOU MUST ESCAPE AND WARN THE OTHERS" he said, his bucket
glowing bright. "but... how?" "THERE IS A SECRET PASSAGE. MY GOKS WILL
LEAD YOU THERE. TELL THE OTHERS MY WORD. I SHALL NOT OBANDON YOU!!!!" he
said. still amazed and socked by the sightes, all i could say was "Thank
you". he smiled, and said: "YOU MUST HURRY NOW. I WILL WATCH OVER YOU".
as he spoke, he faded away. Than, i was back in the room with the suits.
i could still feel Booji. I knew what i must do. My goks seemed ready.
"NOW"!!!!" I shouted. the goks came on the guards, as i heated the leader.
as i rushed through the halls, surprised at the eesyness... they were running
away. SOMETHING was goingon. Maybe that's why i didn't hear the suit creeping
behind me. i heared a noise. *no!!!* He shot at me,before i could move.
My goks took him out before ho could hurt me anymore, thank Booji. but
I was hurt badly.I knew it... and we were running out of time!!! Blackness...
Crawling out... *THEY'RE
AFTER ME*... my goks... must...
tell... Then, there was only pain left... *pain* Thought Entil'zha, as
she tryed to crawl tward the temple, Booji's message still echoing through
her mind. A few dizzy characters came near her. She didn't knew if she
got to the temple, and was saved, or were they the suits? It was getting
to dark to tell... and cold. The last thing Entil'zha heard was the 'MMeeewwwwoouuu'
of her
goks as darkness came about...
*Lindaru*
Lindaru, Wonko and Gwyn had gotten
separated from the others after that last confusing battle. They were sneaking
down the hall to find their fellow captive followers when they noticed
Entilzha Einat and her goks. Einat was dragging slowly along with barely
the use of arms and legs . . . "Entilzha!" Wonko cried. "It's me! We are
in disguise!"
Lindaru let Gwyn and Wonko pick
up Entilzha and pull her to safety, Gwyn later coming out to the hallway
to coax the goks to the same place.
Lindaru tapped her earring and
spoke. "Lorien! Do you have that device ready from the stuff in the Temple
basement? Our time is growing short!"
*Reebo*
My friends and I quickly padded
down the hall following neil, we ahd almost caught up with him when he
turned around. It wasn't neil, it was a suit! Zooty whiped out her pike
and bashed the suit in the face. "Good work" I said, Zooty just smiled.
Then I caught sight of lindaru, wanko, and... was that entl'iza ?! Lundaru!
I shouted REEBO!! she shouted back "what happened to her?" Zoltar asked
"We don't know,"
lundaru replyed "here," Zooty said
" let me have a look" "ok" answered Zooty pulled a med kit out of the backpack
she was wearing and dressed entilza's wounds.
*Lorien*
*a holo screen aperars over lindaru
and the otheres* patched you through to the rim with the temples direct
tv satalite. Boy am I briliant. Yeah i'm ready bring up building map *two
lines appear on the screen then two more then two more* i've been out hear
for a while who knows who the hell's been captured just a sec *a small
PDA looking device falls from nowhere* this should have the positions of
all the followers on it at any given moment just keep booji with as long
as posible or the link goes out. i'm heading back with friends *two wooden
heads materialize on the screen* open season on suits has just been declared
we should be back by
*Neil*
The office he entered was empty,
but what was behing it? Slowly he opened the door. There was an empty hallway,
and slowly neil came out the office. "where am I, and where are the others?"
Neil walked into a random direction, hoping faith would lead him to his
friends..
After a short while neil was already
lost, the hallways looked to much alike, and with his lousy sence of direction
he could not retrace his steps. This was getting very annojing, he started
running, then turning a left corner, and an occasional right one. "what
in Booji's name is this place?" He started running even faster and faster,
and then after he rounded yet another corner he smashed head on into an
Avon Lady....
"ooch, that hurt!!*
*Lindaru*
When Neil smashed into Lindaru,
the earring comm connection to Lorien was cut off . . . but he had promised
help. The view screen immediately disappeared but they had seen enough
of the line sensors in
the building to get an idea of
where they were. By now, Entilzha was feeling a bit better and the goks
were cuddling up to her for comfort.
By jove! That's it! Lindaru snapped
open one of her briefcases and pulled out some funky looking polka dot
underwear. Wonko, Neil, Gwyn and Entilzha looked at her strangely.
"Don't you get it? Polka dotted
gok underwear! Critty thought of *everything*! It is the one thing that
Suits cannot resist!" They got busy and dressed all of the gok up in the
gawdy underwear knowing
that this might be their last defense
against any more attacking Suits. Lindaru silently gave a word of thanks
to her friend Planet Killer for giving her the idea.
*Neil*
Neil was having a hard time getting
the Gok in the underwear, but with Entil's help he got it.
Still rather confused by the blow
he got from walking into Lindaru, and her outragious idea he stared at
the Goks, and at the other followers.... this was unbelievable!! He started
laughing out loud and fell on the floor, still laughing. All the others
eyed him, raising an eyebrow. "I'm sorry, but this is hilarious!! us all
in suits, and the goks in underwear!!" they all started to giggle a little
because it was rather funny looking. After their short amusing little intermezzo
they all felt a lot better, all the tension had gone, they were ready for
anything now. "Oke Lindaru, what do we do next with these walking undies"
Neil said while
repressing another chuckle...
*Lindaru*
Once Lindaru got her own giggles
under control, she explained what she remembered from her studies in school
regarding Suits.
"Back in the early days of the
20th Century, there was a phrase up and coming business people used to
say - The Cat's Pajamas - meaning that they really liked that thing. Since
we have goks which are close to cats and underwear instead of pajamas,
it should still work. The Suits will see the goks in polka dotted underwear
and translate that in their minds to *Cat's Pajamas* and they will not
hurt us as long as we have the goks with us; so, each one of us is to carry
one of these with us on our search for our missing followers and we will
be kept safe!"
*Garibaldi*
The floor shuddered several times
under Garibaldi's feet. It sounded like a war was going on all around him.
Dragging his right leg, he steadily made his way through the maze of corridors
until he reached the wall he had been searching for. Without hesitation
or consideration he stepped right into it. Reality seemed to stretch into
an infinetely flat plane, and Garibaldi had the sensation of traveling
at many billions of times the speed of light. Suddenly there was a flash,
and he felt the atoms of his body being swished about. After what seemed
like hours his eyes opened, and he was in a dark office. A suit sneered
at him from behind an oak desk.
Struggling to his feet, Garibaldi
pointed his PPG at the suit. It got up and walked around the desk. "Ahhh,
so you know about the gate, eh? I thought you did. That Talia Malloy got
very far past our defenses. Very far indeed. And then she found this place."
His face turned dark. "We killed her, you know." Garibaldi stared at the
suit for a moment, then in a fit of rage he aimed his PPG and squeezed
the trigger. But the suit was fast and clever, and within nanoseconds he
had pulled a mask from his coat pocket and pressed it to his face. A Bester
mask. Garibaldi's arm twitched involuntarily, and the shot embedded itself
harmlessly into the ceiling.
Laughter. "You can't kill me. You
can't even allow someone else to kill me. It's so perfect!" He did a little
dance. "Nya nya nya nya nya nya." Garibaldi stared in disbelief.
"Your friends are ripping our HQ
apart. We have hundreds of our best guards scattered throughout the building,
even so we believe they may be able to fight their way through. But we
planned for this contingency long before we kidnapped the first Boojist.
We opened the gate here to the peaceful moon Endor. Sure, it was hell fighting
off those cute little hairballs, but once we had assimilated a piece of
the countryside we could construct The Shield. No one would suspect it."
"They will never make it, you know. Our leaders are being interviewed at
this very moment. By morning the Temples will be smashed to the ground
by angry mobs. You were their only hope, Mr. Garibaldi, and you failed
them. They will be quite dead when we finally turn you to our side." His
sinister laughter made Garibaldi's desire to shoot unbearable, but every
blast he squeezed off went in a different direction. Over in the corner
he could see the Control Panel for The Shield. While the Suit continued
to dance and laugh, he pulled the Energy Cap from his PPG and bounced it
across the floor with all his might. It hit the wall next to the Control
Panel so hard that it shattered instantly.
As Garibaldi jumped backwards through
the gate his arm flew out unexpectedly and grabbed the Bester lookalike
by the sleeve. As the wave of fiery plasma hit the gate and began to distort
its sensitive structure, Garibaldi and the Suit toppled haphazardly through
time/space towards the Suit headquarters.
Meanwhile, the Main Suit's pager
went off in the middle of a damaging spray of insults aimed at Booji, and
he was forced to put the interview on hold. Looking down, he recognized
the number code and jumped up. The other suits around the conference table
jumped at precisely the same moment, they all had received the same message.
"The shield is down."
*Lorien*
Lorien arived just in time to laugh
his brains out he materialized to see the other followers caring goks in
underware which in turn were being
tickled by 4 suits the first ones arrived a moment later and with a quick
blast from their eyes the suits were dust. Lindaru: the links back up..
that's odd mr. garibaldi's gone
lorien: you mean he's been captured
Lindaru: no I mean he isn't in the building anymore Lorien: i can't even
find him in the galaxy... how long has the link been out lindaru: only
about 12 hours he couldn't even had weached the base on io by now athena
(lorien's computer): detecting a spacial anommoly on floor ten readings
consistent with long term use of eienstein-space manipulation drive Lorien:oh..
no if the suits have an einstein
*Reebo*
*Get out of my way you stupid suits*
I thought and when on looked at me in a funny way, mabey a little to loudly.
This gok bussines was working to well I was surrounded by cooing and giggling
suits, I had to fight my way through. I had voulontered to find gadhaildi,
and anyone else missing in action. First I used the locator lorien had
provided us with, to locate Neil, I had tracked him to the holding area,
but he wasn't there, he wasn't even in the office, but then I found a back
pannel...
*Garibaldi*
As the control panel for The Shield
was atomized in a crippling spray of plasma, The Shield's generators overheated.
Before any of the suits realized what was happening, the entire system
of generators and emitters went supernova. As the wake of their destruction
hit the gate, the gate collapsed in on itself, sending out a space/time
shockwave that completely obliterated the peaceful moon of Endor. Amoung
assorted other debris, hundreds of helpless, screaming Ewoks shot off in
all directions. Some landed on nearby corporate-owned worlds, while still
others slammed into moons, asteroids, and ships, hitting the very heart
of Suit territory. Within hours they had recovered and began spawning more
of their kind. Before the day was out their numbers were in the tens of
thousands, whole cities of Ewoks stretched out across almost every rock
in the sector. The Suits were plunged into a war on a dozen fronts, and
even the most optimistic amoung them had little hope of victory except
to escape with their lives.
The Bester-mask-wearing Suit got
up and brushed himself off. Beside him, Garibaldi was pinned to the ground
by a pile of beams and pieces of the ceiling. Chuckling slightly, it took
off the mask and threw it into the gaping hole in the wall where the gate
had once been. There was a brief flash and for a moment the Suit could
see the cone-shaped wall of the spacial anomaly. The mask receeded into
infinity and
disappeared. Then, worried it would
lose its job unless the Main Suit could be protected, the Suit began running
down the hall. He had just turned towards the elevator when he saw something
out of the corner of his eye... Garibaldi watched the suit until it went
down another hall. Suddenly there was a shadow-like scream, and the wall
across from the elevators was painted red with a thin coat of blood. Garibaldi
laughed maniacally until he passed out from the pain.
Will Garibaldi Find his Friends? Will the goks win the fashion award with those darn undies? Will the Temple be saved? Who id this Main Suit?
