*Garibaldi*
Garibaldi tapped a fallen pipe
on the wall. Then he waited and listened for a reply. Nothing. It had been
too quiet. Where was everyone? Wasn't the building under seige or something?
He banged several more times...then stopped.
A little green thing with a bucket
on its head crawled down the hall towards him. Suddenly it stopped moving
and lifted a tiny finger towards the metal beam lying across Garibaldi's
chest.
"Use the force, Luke."
Garibaldi stared at the little
green creature, which suddenly disappeared, leaving only an old cloak and
the bucket.
"Okay...I'm gonna die." Garibaldi
closed his eyes, hoping that little whatzits wouldn't appear in his dreams.
*Lindaru*
After Yoji had vanished from Garibaldi's
location, he felt the urge to take a nap. His last thoughts as he closed
his eyes were that Garibaldi was not aware of the power he possessed.
He fell into a deep sleep . . .
dreaming of the great light at the end of the universe from whence he would
not return.
*Neil*
Neil sighed deeply "we're not getting
anywhere, this building is like a gigantic maze!!"
The Gok in his arms became restless
aswell, escaped his grip and ran off into the crowd of suits. This left
neil totally undisguised, and the suits soon noticed that he was the only
one without a gok.
"Er... guys... I think I'm in trouble.....
again"
One of the suits closed in on Neil,
but was confused "I don't know you, but you wear a great suit, who are
you??"
"euhm...." he had to think quick...
not one of his strongest talents.. "I just got transfered from ... euhm...
ENDOR!!! yes that's it, from Endor, and euhm.... I eh... I'm looking for
the head suit... I lost my instructions, the euhm.. Booji followers.."
"You mean Booji scum?"
"yes Booji scum that's it... they
took my instructions.. and er... they were important, and I have to warn
the chieftain..."
The Suit looked at neil questioningly,
this had better work, or he was Pak'mara food.. the suit finally answered
"Follow this hallway, then right, second left, fifth left, turn around
180 degrees, go right, fifth right, and then the first left again, and
then you end up at the door that is behind you now... that's not where
you wanna go..."
Neil thought about this for a second
(or 97) "then where am I supposed to go?"
"aha!!" the suit said "You are
indeed one of us, the Booji scum would not have understood"
*If he only knew* neil thought.
"So where am I supposed to go!!!"
"Take that elevator up five floors,
it's the only door at that floor"
Neil gave the suit some sort of
salute, and turned towards the elevator, the others following him.
"That was the dumbest trap the
suits ever thought of" Lindaru said as she pressed the button..
*Chief Jones*
Meanwhile at the top floor: The
Chief had made her way carefully through the labarinthian office building.
She wa;ked down every hall, and opened every door, but could find none
of her fallen friends. Finally, she got into the elevator one last time,
but something was wrong. "Chief, does it always take this long to get to
the next floor?", Zack asked. "No, Zack, it usually only takes half this
long. There must be a missing floor here!" Well, I guess I'd spent a little
too much time on Grey 17. What I beheld as the doors opened before me was
not hidden, or missing, it was vast! A huge vaulted ceiling, and a gaping
maw of a lobby. Not only was there a fountain in the room, but that hideous
song "Three Coins in a Fountain" was playing over and over again! It was
sheer torture. I almost lost my senses, until I felt rather than saw the
movement of a suit to my right. "Zack, get down!" I shouted as a fired
at the suit. He went down, but
three more took his place. My officers
drew their PPG's and started firing at the horde. Over the fracas I could
see two huge doors looming in the distance, and I knew that I had found
it... The CEO's office. This was it. This was endgame. No surrender, no
retreat. The line would be drawn here! (oops, wrong show, strike that)
We had only to figt our way through this last room to finally meet...
The BOSS-MONSTER!
I could only hope that the other
followers would get here in time.
*Mr Morden*
With a few days rest on Z'Ha'Dum
after VOR, Morden was as good as new. But she was not a happy Shadow. Her
Associates had told her that the injection was the first step in a mindwipe
process.
Her Associates didn't like it anymore
then she did.
From her dark office she'd orchestrated
all the Shadow movements in that building.
Everything in it's due time and
process, she told herself. First and foremost, get Garibaldi out of there
and here. Her Associates could fix everything wrong with him. Well, maybe
not everything, but the things that could be helped.
What her fellow followers didn't
realize was that there was a much better way to defeat the suits. She thought
as she looked at the syringe in her hand. Ah, Shadow technology was a wonderful
thing.
"<Get ahold of Susie Q. We're
going to need the Spin Doctor. In fact, bring her there, and see to it
nothing happens to her.>" Morden told her Associates shortly, before heading
for the ship that would take her back to Earth.
Morden was her usual over-dignified
self as she walked through the halls, and straight to where the head suit
was. She saw Lindaru. She stopped and pulled Lindaru off to the side. "Still
wearing the lovely outfits I see. I like the Gok bit."
She turned to the right quickly,
"<No! Get away from those.>" She turned to Lindaru. "I have an idea.
I sent my Associates in to find Baldi, he's safe. Keep these guys busy.
I think I can end this."
"How? Morden, you're not going
to do something stupid are you?"
"Stupid? Me? Always. But how can
we destroy them when we haven't humiliated them yet? Susie Q will be coming
through here soon. Don't worry about her, she's safe. I'll need her for
the press conference." With that cryptic message, Morden disappeared.
Lindaru went back to what she was
doing, wondering all the while. A few minutes later, the suits straightened
and looked at the followers in disguise. The goks scattered as the suits
took hold of the followers and drug them off down the hall. They came into
the nicest office they'd seen so far. A suit sat behind at the desk. Morden
stood behind him, leaning on his big leather chair.
"Morden!?" Gwyn asked, surprised
by what seemed a betrayal.
Morden smiled. "Tell them," she
said to the suit.
"I want to apologize for everything."
The suits that held the followers
backed off.
"Whoa, whoa, what's going on?"
Wonko asked.
"I'd like to call a press conference
to publically apologize and I will pay for damages to the temple."
"They tried to mindwipe me to turn
me against you. So I turned the tables. I don't like it when people screw
with my head. I'm screwing with his. Mind control is a wonderful thing,
isn't it?" She looked at the suit. "Do another phrase I taught you."
"Don't slip on the slime trail
I left in the middle of the room."
Morden's smile got bigger. Was
she enjoying this. "Now the other one."
"Yes, that is a dead rat on my
head. I know it doesn't look real."
"And what will happen after you
apologize?"
"The followers of Booji will be
escorted out, and the Shadows will smear this entire block."
"And what is that called?"
"Urban renewal."
Morden giggled as she looked up
at them. "All we have to do now is wait for Susie Q to get here."
"What exactly are we doing?" Jaybee
asked.
"Why destroy them when you can
break them? Wouldn't you like to see them admit that we were right in front
of their beloved audience?"
*Lorien*
lorien materialized
lorien:morden there's no need to
blow up the building. morden:what are you kidding why.
a sudden rumble. lorien: the suits
are doing it for us it's the perfect pr campaighn they destroy there base

* Reebo*
I'll go! I luv suicide missions.
*Neil*
Neil stepped in front of Reebo
"No You Won't!"
Reebo began to object, but neil
cut him short "We will all go, we're all in this together!! We all fight
against the suits, and only if we all stick together we can win!!!"
Silence filled the hallway, the
followers all looked at each other...... Suddenly Entil'Zha raised her
arm above her head and made a fist "HAIL BOOJI!" she yelled....
A lot if fists suddenly rose, and
a choir of followers yelled "HAIL BOOJI!!!!!!!"
*Lorien*
Lorien: will it do any good to
protest
Niel: probably not
lorien: can your "associates" get
garibaldi out through the portal morden
morden: 99.9% sure
Lorien: okay the least I can do
is give us better weapons (a strange looking weapon appeared in front of
all the followers)
lorien:portible hyperspace beam
cannons just don't fire it at anything you want to be there a second later.

here when the building goes
niel: we go with it
lorien: exactly

*Garibaldi*
He chuckled to himself.
"Little Mr. Baldi, sitting on his
tuffet, eating his curds and wh - ay!!!" Giggling. "And along came a spider...hello
little spider - oh, BIG spider. Hehe.....hey....Mr. Spider man, where are
we going?"
...
"Mr. Spider man...where are you
taking me...can I have a glass of water?"
...
(sip) "Pbnbbbbttt. Eww. This is
Diet Water. I hate diet. Whoa...here we go again. Onward, faithful spider!
We shall go forth! hey...you're not going to eat me, are you?"
*Mr Morden*
"The best laid plans of mice and
men..." Morden mumbled. "It was perfect too," she whined. "Bastards. I'm
really gonna get you now. First the Spice Girls, now this."
"You're not gonna eat me are you?"
Morden heard someone behind her say. She turned to see one of her Associates
carrying Garibaldi. She rolled her eyes. "<Take him to Z'Ha'Dum. See
what you can do. And tell the others to take Susie Q out of here.>" She
turned to the Shadows next to her. "<Bring him,>" she pointed at the
suit she had programmed, "<we can still salvage this. I can still win.>"
It would take a little
reprogramming, but that shouldn't
be a problem. She had sent two more out to scour the building for anyone
else who should be out of here. It shoudl be ready to blow in 12 hours.
"You better be right about this
Lorien. Otherwise, we're in it deep."
"<Evolution. You will evolve,
they will die.>"
"Here's hopin'." Morden said as
they started down the hall.
*Lorien*
sudenly three elevators opend in
unisen on the 13.5th floor
Lorien: ding dong avon calling
*cannons all firing*
niel: attack *a small whie blur
flies across the room and takes out bill gates on a weakend visit. a small

a cheer for the mac os*
lorien: good job major buttons
niel: how much more time
*rumble*
lorien: about 3 hours
*the battle rages on*
*Neil*
This was FUN!!!
Entil'Zha was swinging two suits
aroud in the air by their ties, Lindaru was slamming them all on the head
with her pink Avon Lady beauty case, MajorButtons was chasing some suits
through the gigantic lobby. It was just like a carnival, so much fun, and
so little time... the building was going to blow up soon.
Neil watched with amusement as
the suits tried to get away from the Followers play time, suddenly he noticed
a lonely mailman. The mailman was heading for the small table at the side
of the lobby, and he layd a magazine on it..
Curiously neil approached the table....
and his eyes grew wide filled with joy!! "the New Suits Inc. magazine!!!!"
He sat down on the big sofa and started reading it with full interest.
The head suit was watching the
battle proceeding on a large video screen. He zoomed in on Neil who was
joyfully reading the magazine on the sofa.... "yes, the brainwashing has
been fruitfull, that one has already left the battle to read our daily
magazine... the other should soon follow. There will be no one to stop
us this time!"
*Lindaru*
After bashing about 20 Suits over
the head with her Avon case, it finally fell apart. Lindaru kept the other
one filled with the things Critty had given them but this one had held
the polka dotted gok underwear and
was no longer of any use.
She stopped for a minute to breathe,
noticing that Neil was deeply engrossed in a Suit magazine. She found this
odd, so she walked over to him and stood looking at the magazine over his
shoulder.
"What in the world are you reading?"
Lindaru queried.
*Reebo*
Hee,Hee, *BOOM* Hee,Hee, *BOOM*
Hey Neil what are you reading?
Ohh, one minute that suit over there just walked through that wall ...woops
no more wall!
rumble, rumble...
What is wrong
with Garibaldi? Will all the followers start reading th Suits inc. magazine?
What is Mordens
great plan?
