"Wait, that's not right.."
Sir looked at the ladder up to Magnet Hill, but didn't see the Doom Rat.
"Alright! Free melody! Let's go!" Shouted Kiyo
I'd like to think he left the period out of that sentence (and numerous subsequent sentences) to make fun of loid."It's not quite that simple" Anthadd replyed as they peeked their heads out of the sewer, all they saw was the backyard of a large Fourside building. No magnet, no music, just grass and the ladder back into the sewer.
"Wha, what the?" stammered Psiosman
Sir reared back and yelled: "DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO DID THIS?!?"
Soon, a man on the 23rd floor of the adjacent replyed "Ya, some crazy looking bird used a crazy looking device and took out that crazy looking piece of metal. Crazy I tell ya."
"Well, at least I've got something to fight for..Let's see if we can't meet up with Chris and Juiliana again. Shall we start for Saturn Valley?" Sir was ready to head out.
"Wait!" Psiosman held his head and fell to his knees.
"Are you alright?" Asked Anthadd
"Stone....stone...Stonehenge! They're in the Stonehenge base!"
If I charged $50 each time someone's AC knows where someone else's AC is for no reason, I'd be able to afford a beach house in Key Biscayne by the time we're done here."Whoa, trippy.." Said Sir "Ok, how should we get there?"
"I've got an idea..." started Kiyo..
~meanwhile at the top of the Monotoli Building~ "zzz...I'm yound and veril...zzz.." Mr. Monotoli was sound asleep. "Wha, What was that?" He sprang to his feet and ran to his helepad. "Hey, give that back!!"
Can't help but wonder what the elevator man's doing at the top of the building."We're just borrowing it for a sec! We'll bring it back better than new!" Sir yelled over the sound of the rotating blades
I'm surprised Major Asshole didn't go with Pokey's tried and true, 'Geldegarde, you pin-headed idiot, you're just a half step too slow!'Soon, the four were landing in the lab outside of stonehenge base. After talking with the Dr., taking the Instant Revitalizing Device for a spin, and stocking up from the cave man, the four go into the small hole in the center of the stone pillars where they quickly meet up with an AC, guarding the enterance with a sound stone in hand.
Usually people say 'meet up with ____' but 'an AC' cuts to the chase pretty well, too. It's still bad writing; you're supposed to just go do something, and if someone else wants to join up with you, they will. But f--- that, because Tim and Juliana probably are going to pay no attention unless you force them to.
Also note the recurring theme of Major Asshole following Chris and Juliana around.

"Hey Juliana, I'm over here!" Tim shouted.
"Hey Tim! Found anything out yet about your brother?" Tim hung his head low
"I was gonna wait for you before moving on, but now that you're here, let's go!" Tim said, and the two proceded deeper into Stonehenge Base. They had to battle Starman Pluses, and Mook Jr. who seemed much stronger that Mook Senior for some wierd reason.
They're not. Mook Seniors use PSI Fire, which is nasty.Tim then saw a new model ahead. It appeared to be a "Superb Starman" , and it had very long range attaks.
"Hey, guys!" Tim said, seeing Sir and co. approaching. "I think Falcon went to Pink Cloud, Pogopunk's the only one there, so that might mean trouble."
(Sir and co. can either help Tim and Juliana, or help Pogopunk[who is on his own, might I add], their choice, unless Juliana argues)
That's a lot of hoops to jump. The smart money says Major Asshole is going to nix your cunning plan.[This message has been edited by Little Yoshi (edited 04-23-2000).]

"Anthadd, Kiyo, Psiosman, It's your call where you want to go, but I bet it's gonna be tricky down here, so I'm going with Tim and Juliana. Chris said he's hosting an improv show when this is over and I can't let him back out of that now ;)"
Aaaand the smart money wins, as usual. That's why it's smart!
Major Asshole's primary purpose in the Gathering appears to be to follow Chris around and torment him.

"What?? That's strange..."
Falcon was violently thrown out of the temperal rift, and unceremoniously dumped on top of a Dalaamese shack. After spitting out mouthfuls of hay and straw, he looked up and took in his surroundings. He had landed about halfway up the mountain village, very close to the Cave of the Pink Cloud. Many villagers had gathered around the shack and were staring at him.
"What are YOU looking at!? Get outta my face!" Falcon jumped down from the shack and pushed his way through the crowd. Suddenly, an elderly Dalaamese man stepped in front of him.
"Welcome, stranger, to the Kingdom of Dalaam. I am the elder of this village, as our Prince is away at the moment. Please make yourself at home, all othat is ours is yours as well." Falcon pondered this for a moment. "Who is this 'Prince'. The elder piped up proudly "Why, the great Prince Poo! He had left recently regarding some sanctuary melodies."
Falcon's eyes lit up with a morbid glee. "Ah..Prince Poo. Well, if you don't mind, can you give him something for me?" The elder nodded. "Of course. Err...what is it?"
Falcon lifted an arm and bashed the frail little man with all his force, sending him sprawling to the ground. The villagers gasped. Falcon merely grunted and stepped over the little man, proceeding to the Cave of the Pink Cloud.
In tropedom it's called kicking the dog. You do it for teh evulz, just to establish that you're a bad guy. Although Falcon24 probably just did it because it's fun!"Ah, at last..the cave." Falcon squinted into the dark cave as he entered, trying to distinguish what he was about to head into. A light ball zipped around the corner and smacked into him. "What the!? A Thunder Mite!? Why you little..." The Thunder Mite whined in a high-pitched sound and let loose with a volley of lightning bolts. Falcon dived out of the way and nearly tripped over a nearby giftbox. "...what's this?" Falcon opened the box and found a Sudden Guts Pill! He swallowed it quickly and felt his courage heighten.
I think right around this time someone patented the Sudden Guts Pill, and it now sells under various brand names, most notably 'Viagra' and 'Cialis'.He lunged at the Thunder Mite, equipping a Hall of Fame bat and slugging the thing in the side.
It's unclear, given his equipment and the fact he's a bloody AC, why the Anti-Impotence Pill was necessary.the Thunder Mite squealed in pain and fled, dissappearing around the corner. "That was a close one," Falcon thought.
Yeah, we were on the edge of our seats. Who's going to win, the AC or the Thunder Mite? Whew! Please give us some time to catch our breath.Suddenly, he stopped. "Wha-what's this?? ...there are others here, I can hear them!" Falcon looked around for a moment, frantic. Quickly this turned to anger. "I can't believe this! Now I have to get that melody before anoyne else does!!"
Falcon dashed down the tunnel eager to make it to the Pink Cloud sanctuary before anyone else could.
This shtick is getting old already. Falcon24's as easily bored as I am, so I can't see him sticking with it a whole lot longer.

Finally, after waking up from his plane crash, icEFusioN woke up!
"Finally, the FusioN, has come BACK...to Eagleland!" he said.
And there was much rejoicing.As he looked around, he realized he was in Dalaam! He walked around for a bit, then heard some noises coming from the cave.
He went in the cave, trying to find out what was making the sounds.
"BOO!" -- Out jumped Falcon24 from a hidden area behind him! "HOLY!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled ice. "I about wet myself Falcon" Ice frowned.
"Sowwy" said Falcon. "What are you doing here, anyways?" Asked ice.
If icEFusioN actually gets involved, you can kiss goodbye to Falcon24's efforts and semi-seriousness. Big time.
