Jake; and that's everything.
Jerry; glad to here. We'll send our people over there tomorrow.
Jake; alright.
Jerry; also, did anything happen to Tom?
Jake; no, he's fine.
Jerry; I see. Well, that changes things.
Jake; what does that mean?
Jerry; If you had just been honest, I would have considered sparing you. But now I'm gonna kill you for sure now.
Jake; common man.
Jerry; too late.
Jerry then hung up the phone.
Jake; *I hate that guy*
August 19th 20:00
Jessie at home; hey dad, can I stay over at a friend's house for a while? Just for a few days.
Dmitri; are you talking about that boy again?
Jessie; not Jake, dad. There's this friend of mine who lives in Japan that invited us for a visit. A paid suite and everything.
Dmitri; are you serious?
Jessie; you can take my phone and dial the number if you don't believe me.
Dmitri on the phone; Hello, my name is Dmitri Hoff.
?; good evening sir, you are speaking to the Ga-den luxury resort services. I am Lola, a hyper realistic Loyalty Type_H_Model_F. and according to or database, you have a room booked for you and you daughter, are you calling to cancel?
Dmitri; what! No! I was just… just calling to confirm I mean.
Lola; I see, well then, we are sending your special check-in code to your number right now. We are happy to have you and will be awaiting your arrival.
Meanwhile…
Lara; are you sure there was no other way?
Jerry; she said she wouldn't surrender the terrorist's head unless I agreed to her terms. That girls got nerves I'll say that.
Lara; right. Oh, would you look at that, we got a video call from the Lieutenant.
Jerry; put him on screen.
Lieutenant on the large monitor in the war room; commander, we've successfully retrieved all the data from the bunker. We're currently on our way back.
Lara; excellent.
Lieutenant; also, as we were going through his laptop, we found a few things of interest, first was what we believe to be coordinates leading to all 6 of the remaining terrorists.
Jerry; that's perfect, what else.
Lieutenant; second is what we believe to be a folder full of loli…
Jerry and Lara; Hold it!
Jerry; Do not finish that sentence. Just come back home safely.
Lieutenant; roger.
Jerry; *What a disgusting freak*
August 20th local grocery store.
Itona; Why did we come to Shop right? That's just the dollar store for black people.
Tom; oh, shut up.
Noah; this green bean?
Tom walking with a crouch; no.
Noah; this potato?
Tom; no.
Noah; This yam tuber?
Tom; no.
Noah; then what do you put on our dinner pizza? That sign there says you put anything on it.
Itona; he makes a good point, it would be nice to switch things up ounce in a while.
Noah; yes, what he said. Live in the moment.
Tom; except I can't stand onions, green beans suck, and the yam is going to make chewing twice as hard.
Itona; so, you're ok with the potatoes then.
Tom; yeah, they're fine, but only when baked or grilled.
Itona; hey look over there. Theres a girl over there in a hood.
Noah; hey she kind of looks familiar, I wonder where I've seen her before.
Tom; whatever let's just get our stuff and go.
Itona; you're really not interested at all?
Tom; any reason I should be?
Itona; well, ok.
Noah; I need to go take a look.
Itona; shoot your shot!
After Noah left…
Itona; so, what now?
Tom; what do you mean?
Itona; I mean what's next for you, for us, for all of us I mean.
Tom; honestly, nothing, I guess. We've done our part now we can just leave all the terrorist stuff to my brother.
Itona; so, we just sit back and do nothing?
Tom; yeah, we hang around, use our powers, sit back, relax and listen to the new Loyal-T album.
Itona; you're just saying that because you know I love loyal-T.
Tom; but you know, I think Cyborg is the better digital music artist.
[Cyborg another loyalty. And Digital artists are non-human artists]
Itona; and you still have no taste in music. Still, Miku does beat both regardless.
Tom; agree to disagree then.
?; thanks a lot.
Noah; it's my pleasure.
Noah looking down; hey, wait you forgot your card. *Hey, she's gone*
Noah; hey guys,
Itona; well, it looks like someone's back, so how was it?
Noah; well, I don't know if she liked or hated me, because I told her a few jokes and she laughed, a bit, but the second I turn away, she disappeared.
Tom; well, I think the answer is obvious then, alright let's go.
Noah; wait, before she left, she dropped this.
Itona; it looks like her ID.
Noah; yeah, and from the looks of it, her name and face look familiar.
Tom; can we just go home already?
Noah; her name is Tsubaki Yotsuba.
Tom; can we get serious for a… I'm sorry what did you say her name was?
Noah, showing him the card; here, it says Tsubaki Yotsuba right there.
Tom; Let me see the card!
Tom, looking at the photo on the ID and recognizing who it was; *It can't be*
At that moment I began to recall that night
*Tsubaki; you feel that touch, just feel my hand moving down your arm, focus on that feeling as you infuse qi into your body until you can feel it throughout it. Don't look at the sword as something you're holding, look at it as a part of your own body. *
Tom; where did you see her?
Noah; you're too late she's already gone.
Tom then began forcing himself to run with the crutch till he reached the parking lot, but there was no sign of her.
Tom; *I can't believe it, after all this time she just shows up and, disappears. *
Tom, with tears running down his face; I've never been happier.
EOC
Earlier…
Nino; yes, I do.
Itona; look, I know it's none of my business what turns you on, but it better not affect the rest of us?
Nino; and why would it? All I want is Jake all to myself, nothing more.
And now he'll never leave my side.
Itona; *This girls insane. I just confirmed that she was never mad at him the whole time but hearing her admit it so casually is crazy. * I didn't take you for the type to want to be swept of their feet.
Nino; Then it seems you know nothing about women dear.
Itona; I agree with you there. Just don't turn this into something we can't handle.
An hour later…
Tom; What happened?
Itona; you were right. Cyborg makes peak music.
Tom; told you.
