I Do Not Know Because There Is A Blanket!



(POV: Joltik, a.k.a. GrrzapBrrzap)

GRRZAPBRRZAP:   Where have you taken us? And what is this hard bubble you've place me in?


JOLTIK:   The Lady is busy now.  She is worried.  The dark-things are being loud again.  Do you have a leader? Will they help us?


GRRZAPBRRZAP:  My leader is one of your people who communes with the spark! He has come to destroy the dark-things! Your Lady is wise to worry over them, but they are not invincible.


JOLTIK:   Who is your leader?


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   He is one with a tree-name--


JOLTIK:   We are not of trees.  We are of caves and darkness.  Our Lady brought us out into the light.  She is good, but she is only one, and the dark-things are many.


TYNAMO:   I don't like trees.  I don't like you.


JOLTIK:   Shh!


TYNAMO:   You're not dark-things, but your friend attacked us.  Are you with them? Are you spying on us?


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   I can no longer speak for GzzBzz, but I have submitted to your tests.  We mean you well, and we seek to remove the dark-things.  You need not accept us or our ways; you need only hate that which intrudes upon your home to do you harm.  We are allies.  Send your scouts to behold the actions of my master and you will know I speak true! He is one who bleeds with hair like the clouds.


TYNAMO:   ...what the hell?


JOLTIK:   Be nice.


TYNAMO:   You talk funny.  I don't like that.  You're pissing me off.


JOLTIK:   He said he was a friend! We are the scouts.  The Lady says it is too dangerous now, and we must stay here...but we believe your friendship.


TYNAMO:   I don't like friends.


JOLTIK:   You are not helping.


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   He will come.  My master will come and I will signal him to you.  Appeal to him and he will show himself your ally--GzzBzz! You are here as well?!


JOLTIK:   He must allow us to test him.  He must be harmed, to proved he is not a dark-thing...but we will not injure him much.  A small attack is enough.


GRRZAPBRRZAP:  Awaken him, then.  His master is one who thrives in conflict and he will not yield easily, but he will certainly survive your test.  Allow me to speak with him.

BOOM!

What was that noise? It was loud and unnerved our captors.  Perhaps it is Tom! He is prone to explosion.  I must screech to signal to him!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE--!


They put a blanket over me?! Curses, my cries are muffled!


JOLTIK:   Is that your people?


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   I do not know because there is a blanket!


JOLTIK:   Are your people here to help us?


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   I have said as much, but your response has been hostility!


NETWORK:   Ugh...they're scared...because they don't have people.


JOLTIK:   We have a people! We have the Lady!


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   The Lady is a people?!

The door! It has opened! Someone is among us...but I must not make a sound until they are revealed--

The sound of sparks! Could it be Tom!

LADY:   Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay...lights up!

ARTURO:   Who the fuck is this bitch?!

KEVIN:   ...and you are?

The shadow-man! The one who gives GzzBzz the name "Network"!

ARTURO:   No! I'm sick of this shit! Fuck her! She's crazy! I'm tired, I'm hurt, and I want my Pokemon back!

LADY:   Is it safe?

ARTURO:   You see this? This is my loaded gun.

LADY:   You're getting us out of here, right? We're not staying here...right?

That is the Stone-child...but is this other voice the Lad--?



The blanket is removed! It is Kevin and Arturo! Please, free me! I will tink at this glass until such a time that you do!


LADY:   I worked here...before...before it all happened.  Are these yours? Here! Take them! They're free!


GRRZAPBRRZAP:   Anubis...Nightsun...where is Tom?


LADY:   Are they still here? Have they gone? Are there any ones left?


KEVIN:   Yeah, I don't have the time for this right now.  Network, zap the floor.  We're leaving.


LADY:   The Zoroark! Are they still out there?


KEVIN:   ...you have just said the magic word.  Okay, here's what's gonna happen.  We're gonna leave and you're going to follow us close behind.


LADY:   But are they all gone?


ARTURO:   Yeah, we made those Zoroark...umm...what stuff turns into...after they die.


They are leaving! I must join with them if I am to reunite with Tom! I will ride the Stone-child!


ARTURO:   Heeeeeeeey, little guuuuuuuy...get ooooooooff.  You're grooooooooss.


I shall ride Anubis instead!


LADY:   Did you get my notes? What about Samantha? Is she alright? Did anyone else get out? Did you see anyone?


KEVIN:   ...nope.


ARTURO:   They're probably all dea--fiiiiiiiiiine.


KEVIN:   We're here with a goth girl and an old man.  We need to link back up with them.  Now...what happened here?


LADY:   Okay, I'll tell you...
