"The sound stone!" Luna grinned gleefully, grabbing it from pikachu.
[Hey! What are you doing!?]
"Splitting it. If we're going in different directions..."
**crack**
[You... You broke the sound stone in two!!] Pikachu gasped.
Must've borrowed some of PSI322's incredible strength. Splitting rocks with one's bare hands?Even though it was broken in two, the two pieces continued to glow and hum. In fact, the two pieces formed back into the shape they had been before they had been split.
"This way, your piece can hold melodies and so can mine. Look, they're both identical already!"
If the Sound Stone is regenerative, why don't we just split it into 150 pieces and give everyone one?"It must have some sort of power..." Nathan commented offhandedly.
"Well, If it's settled, I'll go alone to Happy Happy village and beat up Mondo Mole, and Pikachu's group is going to go beat down a certain Titanic Ant. Is Everyone agreed? If so, I'll send out a Psychic call that we have those 2 sanctuaries covered."
Sounds like Luna's had enough of hanging out with Team 3164.[Pikachu's group? Nathan? yes or no?]
It'll be interesting to see if they try to refuse and keep Luna around. HINT: It's wiser not to.

Prepare for a long series of one-sentence paragraphs. Mani loves her enter key.Ness, Paula, Jeff, Darth, and Mani arrived from the teleportation in the Lost Underworld near the Tenda Village.
"Hey, wait, I just realized..." said Mani. "I'm not equipped to fight any monsters, let alone Carbon Dog."
Oh. Then I guess you're going to die a horrible painful death."We're right at the village," said Paula. "We can get you a weapon and some defense items, if you want."
Or there's that."Oh, that'd be great! Thank you very much."
"Well, we have plenty of money left over from last time. It's no trouble at all." They entered the ring of fencing separating the village from the dinosaurs and headed for the shop.
This is all tragically hilarious now that we have Mother 3, which informs us that at some point not too long after the events of EarthBound, Pokey/Porky handed Team Ness's asses to them and either killed them or wiped their minds and turned them into mindless drones for his own amusement. It's like a personal in-your-face to Tengu Man!"Hi!" said the little Tenda shop kid. "Guess what, we have a new weapon in! It's the kind that the Tenda Leader uses." He showed them a hard, wooden staff, very simple, but very sturdy, with a heavy top. Ness and the other two Earthbounders recognized it as an almost exact replica of what the leader of the Deep Darkness Tenda Leader carried around all the time, only stronger.
"Wow, that looks like the weapon for me!" exclaimed Mani. "I just can't stand swords, even though I know a couple of the SM.Netters use them."
Because it's yucky to cut people in pieces, or because using swords is mindless and f---ing boring? Could go either way."You wanna try it out?"
"Sure!" She took the staff from him. It had good balance. The sides had been smoothed, so there would be no danger of splinters.
Any truly badass staff always comes with danger of splinters, requiring the badass wielding it to wear gloves at all times.She twirled it around some, noting that it wasn't too heavy for her. Meanwhile, Ness was talking to Darth.
"Do you want a weapon, too?"
"Nah, it's all right," replied Darth, grinning. "I already have my own."
Mani had decided to buy the weapon.
"How much is it?" she asked the Tenda.
"Well, normally it's $3,000, but since it seems to fit you real well, I'll give it to you for only half the price!" After Ness bought the staff for Mani, he also got her a Shiny Coin (although she insisted he was spending too much money).
Man, this is literary masturbation at its finest. We're so cool!"No, really," he said. "You'll need it. It boosts your Luck pretty high - it may save you sometime." They also purchased a couple Horns of Life and some Luxury Jerky, just in case. Then they set off to meet Carbon Dog...
But if you think this is bad, wait until the anti-Tengu group comes along and talks incessantly about how it's way too cool to hang out with the likes of Team Ness.
If only it were that simple to boost one's luck.

"Specter took out the weird junk room, If this keeps up, there won't be much of a Tenda Vilage left!" Sir stated.
Shouldn't Electro Specter be focusing more on taking out Monty? The weird junk room was just sitting there minding its own business. But then, it makes not the slightest sense for Electro Specter to even be here in the first place, so the rest is just water over the bridge, really."Hey Sir, Anthadd you guys h.."
"Chris, duck!" Yelled Juliana, causing the trash can hurled by Electro Specter to miss by inches.
"Chris! In here!" Sir motioned to the two from the Tenda Inn. The two made a run for it, but the Specter noticed them and went after.
"Dive!" Exclamed Chris and him and Juliana rolled into the small room.
Probability Monty knew exactly what he was saying and intended it as an innuendo: 73%."Good to have you here, guys, we could use a few differing opinions for the debate we're having with the estemed gentalman from the 7th Sanctuary. Bring us anything?" Said Sir,
"Um, not really..but we did pick this up from the wepons dealer. Gave it to us free for buying the bats" Juliana gave Sir an odd jagged peice of metal while showing Anthadd her new wepon.
Ahmet the Black Market Arms Dealer would never give anything to anybody free. Not even AC's."Wait a minute, I think I know what this is! Chris, get me some duck tape from my backpack."
"Duck Tape?!" The three exclamed in harmony
Duct tape, actually. It is neither made from nor generally used on ducks. In fact, ducks have nothing to do with duct tape at all."It's the same stuff Jeff used to fix a broken bazooka..Anthadd, Chris, Juliana, hold Specter Boy at bay for three minutes and I'll have this thing better than new!"
You only need two tools in your life: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use the WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, use the duct tape.
Sir started taping together bits and peices furiously...
If I were writing this, I'd have encased Electro Specter in a 12 foot thick ball of duct tape and rolled him into the swamp.

(Just one question...Pikachu, in your last post you said that if the heroes absorb the power of one sanctuary, they could defeat the villains. Well, if the villains absorbed a sanctuary, would they cancel each other out? Anyway...)
Nobody listens to the voice of reason. If someone had, he'd know I already explained that villains can no more absorb the power of a sanctuary--or really, anyone other than Ness personally--than they can absorb the power of a burning 2004 Ford F-150.Falcon shakes his head.
"Are you telling me that we can't get across!? Well, leave it to me."
Falcon crouches, then dives into the water. "How lovely, I never thought I'd be freezing my butt off on this vacation...then again, power is power."
That last part is pretty much the motto of Falcon24's life. And mine.Falcon arrives on the opposite shore of Lake Tess, and EBPoo climbs out after him.
"Come on, Poo. We have a sanctuary to conquer. Just imagine, unlimited power will soon be ours...Well, what are you waiting for!? Let's go!"
Can't see how you're going to get unlimited power out of this. Ness didn't get anything near unlimited power out of it. He got a s---ton of power out of it, but not infinite. He had like 900 HP; he could still theoretically get whacked if he wasn't paying attention or something.Falcon comes to a small cave, with a sign in front of it. "A dungeon, eh? This is pathetic..."
Upon entering Brick Road's long since abandoned dungeon, he engages a Mad Duck!
Damn. It's situations like these when a guy really wishes he had some duck tape."Wow, a fellow avian!" Falcon thought, as the Duck bit his toe. "Ouch! Why you little..."
Pecked, actually. Ducks don't really bite.Falcon equipped the T-Rex bat and came out swinging.
He must have missed Pokey's lecture on how you're supposed to have your weapon equipped beforehand.SMAAAAAAASH!!! The Duck went flying into the far wall of the cavern. A strangely familiar music piped up from parts unknown, and two large blue words sprung up from the floor and knocked him on his feet. "YOU WON!"
"What in the heck..." Falcon mused. A small box appeared on his arm, with two meters. One meter said HP, the other, PP. "Oooh...I get it now. So I'm gaining experience."
The experience of splattering the guts of a duck all over the wall with a baseball bat always makes you more powerful.His Hit Point meter read 135, his PSI Points were at 70. I must find a place to recharge, so I can find out how many hit points I really have, Falcon thought.
After what seemed like several hours wandering through Brick Road's maze, Falcon's energy was wearing down. He equipped the T-Rex bat again and came out swinging! He quickly plowed through the rock walls, leaving a nice direct path to the exit.
"Come on, Poo. The sanctuary lies ahead...and then, ultimate power." Falcon exited the dungeon.
Question from the Annoying Question Guy: Why don't you just use your magical bat to tunnel through the walls straight to the Sanctuary?

{Silly Sir, Mani's at the underworld tenda village! Tee hee hee!}
Huh. Monty must have made a massive edit after this (and Tengu Man's following post, #436) to drag Chris and PSI322 into the Ultimate Battle of Pointlessness. I like to think he did it on purpose just to tweak Tengu.
