The Challenge:
Abbey vs. The Computers Part II
The Verdict:
N: As Abbey walked away from her dad she turned back one last time to look at him before she went off. She said nothing but nothing needed to be said. She realized that the weight of the world was on her shoulders now. Her father couldn’t be with her during this adventure. And so it began, The Legend of Abbey.
She went first to Belvidere to Wolfman’s Tomb. It didn’t take long to find since there is only one cemetery there in Pleasant Ridge. She walked about the cemetery looking for Wane’s tombstone but saw nothing with his name on it. She did however find a peculiar looking tomb that had no name at all on it. She got out her pavement chalk and wrote, “Hello,” on the tomb. It vanished and the words appeared, “Who writes on my stone.” “It is I, Abbey of the Mason Clan. I need your help,” she wrote back. “You must know the pass word to enter,” it replied. Abbey remembers the password in a story her father once told her. She wrote the letters BT on the tomb. After a descending scale of notes played she received a lantern and the tomb moved to the right and revealed stairs going deep into the dark.
Abbey eagerly entered as she pulled her lantern out of her pocket. The stairs were all broken and chipped and many were missing. It looked as if a battle had taken place here once before. She saw a light and went towards it. It went to a room with a big oval table covered with a teal green tablecloth with gold lace on it and 16 chairs around it. At the end sat an old man with long dark curly hair.
BT: I’ve been awaiting your presence Abbey. Sit and join us as we eat.
N: Abbey sat and 4 others came into the room and sat as well. It was an aged Derek Myers with drumsticks in a pouch that sits at his back. There was James with a TI 83 calculator and there was Cheyenne with Excalibur. All of the rest of the members were either passed or just too sickly. Bo had prior engagements and couldn’t make it. They called him but he didn’t answer. BT was aware that Abbey was unfamiliar with the other so he introduced him.
BT: Meet Alan Hale my good friend from Fineline. Alan stood up and nodded his head and stuck out his hand.
AM: Nice cutoffs she said as she shook his hand.
N: Just then a guy busted in with speckled blond hair. He asked, “Hey guy’s we going down there after we eat.” He laughed but everyone else just shook their heads. Cheyenne then stood up, pulled out her sword and cut the chain to the ceiling fan above. It then fell down and propelled straight to the head of Arlo.
DM: Now that was the coolest fucking shit I’ve seen. He then played a drumbeat on the table and wasn’t aware that everyone was watching him.
BT: We’ve almost regrouped but we are missing one. The portal can’t be opened without everyone’s appearance. The only replacements can be a son or daughter.
DM: Well we’re shit out of luck. Bo is a fag.
N: The tomb alarm then went off again and everyone went back to their quarters except for Abbey and BT.
N: They heard the tomb open and BT told Abbey to get under the teal green cloth quickly.
A young lad quickly ran down the stairs and entered the room. He had an OP shirt on and some long cutoff shorts. The only thing that was close to a weapon was his check- writing pen. He was out breath and gasping for air by the time he got to BT.
EB: I am Elden Boswell of Bo Boswell. He sent me on this venture for he was stuck in another battle with a guy name Jason.
BT: It is complete then. The portal can be opened. We’ve all gathered here to find the book but we’ve had no luck. We’ll have to go in through the Trove.
N: Everyone reentered the room. James pulled up Halicon Trove on his calculator and typed “%1964%.”
JW: We must first bring back the 60’s.
BT: Right, rock music would have never existed without the Beatles. You all must bring them back. Is all you have to do is get “Love Me Do” played on the radio or somehow played in America and it will grow on its own from there.
JW: Wait... there is no need. Maybe I can do it with my TI 83. I’ve reconfigured it. It is so outdated that the computers can’t tamper with it. I have a program that can tap it into the system, but simple commands only can be entered.
N: BT tried to erase the letters but it was too late. Abbey, Elden, Derek, and Cheyenne vanished into the calculator. The Beatles were playing already where James entered it in the database. It was the most remarkable site that they had ever seen. The amazement triggered dropjaw amongst them all. The job was done but they didn’t want to leave. Abbey and Cheyenne had an orgasm right there while watching the Fab Four. Elden began writing songs in his head and took up the desire to become a musician. Derek started breathing quickly and his bottom lip began to go in and out of his mouth.
James quickly exited out of the site to save the warriors.
BT: We’ve now brought the music back to the 70’s up until 2004 when Don Cheadle took over the database. He somehow found the 3 letters and used the Trove to feed knowledge to all the computers. He erased everything good in life and gave it all to him and his mates. He wiped out the memories of all previous activities and feed it to the Computers so the would work for him. We must go back to 2004 and kill him, but you must cut his head off or he won’t die.
N: James entered %2004%.
Abbey remembered the plan that her father told her about and she knew what she had to do. She told the other members about it and got their input. Elden wrote it all down with his pen. As she heard the scribble she turned to Elden with a smile and their eyes locked. Elden just dropped his head down and looked sad. Abbey quickly turned away and pretended nothing had happened.
AM: Aright, if we start this program not only the Halicon Trove will be invincible from Cheadle and his kind, but the whole world will. Derek, you’re handy with computers so you can begin the program and come up with some beats to send to the users. The rest of us will go find Cheadle.
N: Cheyenne commented on what a stupid name Cheadle was followed by a loud chortling.
AM: I think I know where he is. Follow me.
N: They made their way to Hundred Oaks Castle on just a hunch… There instinct was nearly correct for they only found Kervin. The three busted in on him while he was at the dinner table. Kervin had food all over his face and was getting ready to light up a big doobie.
GK: Tokin’
N: Kervin then looks at Abbey and thinks she is Scarlet. He throws his doobie and charges Abbey. As he is charging he gets a rumbling in his belly. With quick instincts Elden pulls a match out of his back pocket and lights it on the denim of his shorts. It looked like he just pulls fire out of his butt. He then throws it at the asscheeks of Kervin. An ungodly sound was let from his rear and he bursted into flames.
CH: Eww. Good lord, that smells really bad. GOD he KEEPS FARTING! His naked asscrack is facing me, that's why it's so bad.
EB: stuck the reefer in his pocket. I’ll save this for our victory. (Went to see if Abbey was OK and helped her up.)
Abbey: We must find Cheadle. Let’s try the castle in Sewanee.
N: James took them to a direct link there. Bruce Janey was waiting, but to their surprise he was happy to see them. He didn’t like Kervin too much and was jealous because Cheadle had spent more time with him. Janey joined the team.
BJ: I will show you to him.
N: Janey led them to the Greenroom.
BJ: At some point Cheadle took a liking to Bo and wanted everything he owned. He even got an exact replica of his scooter. Occasionally he calls me Bo. I hate it.
N: The Greenroom couldn’t even be seen because all of the weeds around it. Once they got inside they saw Cheadle’s empire. There with Cheadle was Matt Gaby. They immediately let go of each other’s hands when they saw Bruce. Bruce was furious and threw a throwing star into the chin of Gaby. Gaby ran. Bruce screamed, “No.” Cheadle pulled out his sword and cut Janey’s head off and lightning bolts again attacked him. Cheyenne draws her sword and attacks. They fought long and hard. Cheadle struck one last time and struck Chy on the arm but fails to hit her with the blade. It merely smacks her. Finally, Cheadle drops his sword and falls to his knees. Cheyenne laughs loudly at the poor bastard and can’t cut his head off. Abbey pulls out the potion and throws it on Cheadle and he goes into convulsions. Cheadle instantly becomes hairy and regarded as a fool.
AM: Let’s see if Derek has gotten the program started.
N: They instantly go there.
DM: I have one last thing to configure and we’re done. James is working on it now. Soon the world will have music again. I love you guys. You guys are the greatest. This is the best band I’ve ever played with and the only one I care to play with.
CH: Derek have you been drinking again?
DM: We single-handedly brought back the 60's
N: They go back to the tomb. BT sings Universal Soldier by Donavan and Alan Hale plays the guitar. (must listen) Elden pulls out the joint and they all celebrate.
