Uberia: Chapter XV Plans of Mutiny
As night began to fade, giving its way to another day, Big Mike lay restless on his bedroll. The King could die, his friend Jonukah was also on the verge of death, and he is now on the run from an army of post-killers. It couldn't get much worse. A single drop falling from the sky and smashing into his forehead followed by the sound of distant thunder just made that a moot statement. It was going to rain. He peered over to his left, where his King stirred in his sleep. If the virus took hold soon, he would die, in weeks, days, even hours. His hope was fading quickly about this war, not knowing how they were going to regain their city. They were going to need a miracle.
"C'mon people, we're almost there." Loki said as they moved through the entrance to the gateway city, Yahoo. People were already awake and moving, this was truly the city that never sleeps. Even as the morning mist began to turn to a slight drizzle, it was an amazing sight. People were lined in the city cobblestone streets waiting in to enter an open booth. As they moved into the streets, Loki fell to one knee. Reallybored turned to her with concern "Loki are you ok?", Loki only held her index finger up at him, hushing him to further concentrate. She went numb, she could feel him talking in her head. "Our King is alive, and he's with Big Mike" Loki yelled over the noise from the crowds around them. Hope filled the adventurers as they heard the good news. Her eyes opened with fright, "He's hurt badly, and so is Jonukah, they are in desperate need of a healer. LaNa, we need you to go to him." LaNa stepped forward, "Anything Loki, where is he?"
"About a half day's run behind us, but there is no time" her mind raced as she began to scan out into the crowds. "Take Mac and Reallybored with you, just in case there is danger near." There was no time for interjections or any talk as they moved through the crowd pushing their way to the nearest booth. Loki shoved LaNa into the Explorer booth. In front of her, LaNa noticed several buttons, each with descriptive pictures. Some had arrows, one had a red "X", and another had a magnifying glass. Loki quickly pushed the magnifying glass as Mac and Reallybored squeezed into the small booth. The booth spoke in a monotone voice, asking for a destination. "Lord Bart" she said as several options popped up. Loki chose a few selections and then grabbed LaNa by the shoulders. "Now listen, you'll see a progress bar on this screen, when it gets about one third of the way complete, hit the button with the red "X", it should take you close to where our Lord is resting, you have to find him quickly, and do what you can for him."
"I won't fail you Loki"
"I know you won't, now get going" Loki said as she pressed the button labeled "Go" and closed the booth door. After a bit of shaking and shimmying from the contraption, the booth disappeared in a cloud of smoke. It all happened so fast, and as Loki's breathing settled, she felt better knowing that a healer was on their way to save the King. "Ok guys, all we can do is push on and hope she can help him, let's move out and find Maddox" Since the attack, it's been nonstop. They had to get some answers, and it seemed Maddox would be the only one who might have the answers they seek.
Mac began to cramp as he stood huddled near his companions while the machine continued to buzz and whistle. The box had no windows but they could feel movement, making Mac a bit nauseous. The bar was moving quickly, but LaNa kept her composure, as soon as the bar was one third of the way full, she pushed the stop button. They quickly appeared right near the bank of the river, falling a few feet from the sky and crumpling to the ground. Reallybored brushed some dead grass off of his shoulders as they rose back to their feet. "Damn that's the only way I'll be traveling from now on, did anybody know what just happened in the past two minutes" Mac said, trying to bring some comic relief to the situation. LaNa seemed to be in a trance, she was on a mission to find her King.
Phinch's eyes went wide as the Paladins climbed up over a quarry of rocks. The view opened up to a large field of apple trees. All of the trees seemed to overflow with large delicious apples as they stood in awe. "Has anybody here eaten in the past forty-eight hours?" he asked. It was a rhetorical question as they ran out of the craggy rocks into an oasis of wonder in the foothills of the large mountain range they had just climbed over. William Q. Percy beat them all as he ran to the first apple tree. The tree was heavy with the delicious fruit, as he reached his hand out to grab a shiny red apple. As he took hold of an apple, it turned to powder and crumbled into dust, flowing into the wind through his fingers. He looked over at Hair sphincter who was experiencing the same problem. He heard groans of frustration as they all noticed that it seemed the great Uber had played some ridiculous joke on the desperate warriors. "A freakin demo?" Screamed Phinch, "All of this is a freakin demo?" They looked around and noticed they were in the middle of a Microsoft demo land. The Microsofs were notorious for deceit in their lands, often showing an oasis of wonder, then soon revealing its true secret of being a cosmetic smoke and mirrors game. The team marched forward, still hungry and still frustrated. "Alright guys, about another day and we should be in the city, maybe there we can eat." Phinch said, as he too, took one last look at the large apple tree before him, and moved on.
The sky turned morning blue as McBain's troops worked now to build an outer wall around Ubersite. McBain had pushed what was left of his men to continue to fortify the castle. He knew an attack was coming, and he was not about to lose ground in his own castle. Deep in the bowels underneath the castle grounds, Koolmang sat amongst friends, the original friends who fought with him to take Ubersite. They were not loyal to McBain, they were Koolmang's personal guard.
"I don't care what you say or think; McBain wants to dispose of you, Koolmang" Said MacDaddySurge. Koolmang looked towards the stairs, to make sure no one was coming, "I don't trust McBain as far as I could throw him, but we need him."
"What if we convince him to take control of Boredatwork, now that it's in our grasp?" suggested DraconianKing.
"That's actually a good idea; we could take Boredatwork and build our own empire."
"Now that he has Ubersite and has released the Triad, McBain will try and dispose of us when he no longer deems us a worthy ally" added Craiger.
Koolmang stood up and drove his dagger into the wooden table, "Then it's settled, I'll convince McBain that he needs me in the north, and we'll build an army at Boredatwork." For two days Koolmang has confided into his closest personal guard about his concerns with McBain's recent disinterest in him, and they've been working on a way to leave McBain's direct view before things got complicated, now he was ready to make his move. He climbed the stairs to the throne room, making his way down the halls where soldiers moved in and out. He approached the dark menacing McBain. "Milord, I have an idea."
"Go ahead Koolmang, what is it?"
"I would like to lead the troops at Boredatwork, I feel that I can serve you better there, pushing further your empire of glory."
"You can always find an interesting way to kiss my arse can't you Koolmang? McBain said in a cynical tone. "What is it you want?"
"Only to serve you better milord."
McBain turned to the north, as if he could peer through the walls and see Boredatwork. "Very well Koolmang, take your personal guard with you, there are plenty of troops stationed there now."
"Thank you milord"
"Koolmang," McBain said as the warrior in red began to walk away, "Even though you are the commander-in-chief, those troops are mine. Don't even think about crossing me if I give you this freedom."
"Of course not milord," Koolmang said as he walked away. He thought to himself how he would win those troops over as he moved out into the busy hallways. Soon he would gain enough power to become the King of Uberia, and the whole of the lands would be his.
"Move out you bitches in white" screamed Hamilton as he barked out at their new captives. "You'll soon be at Ubersite, where McBain wants to personally deal with each and every one of you." The Boredatwork council members moved in a single file line, chained to each other by foot and neck. SpikeGoddess cut her glare at the small man. "You must feel pretty powerful screaming at a few helpless women bound in chains" She spoke to Hamilton in a condescending tone. Hamilton moved over to her, moving from the balls of his feet to the tips of his toes, while pushing his face into hers. He whispered into her ear, "You are a pretty thing, and before we make it to Ubersite I'm going to have my way with you", he pulled away just enough for her to see him give her a wink. She gave a sly smile and whispered back to him, "Come here you cute thing," He cut his smile back at her and moved in closer. Her bound hands moved close to his groin area as he closed his eyes in pleasure. She quickly snatched up his testicles in her fingers and pulled him even closer, "When I get out of these chains, I'm going to hang you upside down with these," the only thing he could get out was a murmur, until he managed to painfully jerk away, landing a back fist across her face, causing her to drop to the ground. "You'll die before you get out of those chains bitch, I'll see to that."
SpikeGoddess licked blood from the corner of her mouth, "We will see post-killer, we will see..."

I'm back I hope, Guys I'll be witnessing the birth of my son any day now, things have been pretty hectic, but I have not forgotten about Uberia and I have not forgotten about you all. I will resume writing again this weekend, and a lot of stuff that wasn't coming together for me (In the story) is now apparent and I think it's going to make for a good second half (Oh shit did I just inadvertantly commit to 15 more chapters?)

Well ladyplural,
You are correct. Asking and offering are two entirely different things. However, Ms. Grammar Queen, asking someone would require the "?" punctuation. (ie. Can I be in the story?) I did not see that. I saw "I could randomly twitch at people. i dont mind being really anything (bad guy, cannon fodder, etc.) at all."
+2 for for the revision of your "essence" though.

actually, if you noticed my original statement, dlove, i mentioned that i thought that the story itself was quite good; i believe that the phrase i used was "definitely good stuff." that was the reason that i felt a need to mention grammatical errors. had the entire saga been utter tripe, i would not have said anything, because grammar would not help the underlying issue- that it was still crap. this is nowhere near crap, and i am impressed at the ammount of work that went into it. i realize that nobody is perfect, myself included. i also realize that grammar should be secondary to the plot. that said, i merely suggested that lordofthepost work on such things. i did not "offer" to be in the story, i *asked*. there is a massive difference between the two. the reason that i asked was that the tale of uberia is most assuredly epic, and being immortalized in such a work (even just as a random person who has no lines and is almost immediately killed) would cause me much glee and joy. from the story so far, i have the feeling that lordofthepost could smite me (verbally) if he (or she) so chose. randomly attacking me is a bit pointless, as well as rather silly.
dlove, you left a part out of my description- "STUPID BITCH THAT THINKS SHE'S SMART, YET MAKES THE SAME MISTAKE SHE CRITICIZES ANOTHER FOR" *but who does have really big ones*. i think THAT is the essence of me.

Hey LadyPlural, you've got some real big ones, I'll give you that. Criticize the man's story, then offer to be in it like you are some sort of celebrity? NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU OR YOUR GRAMMAR NEEDS.
If you have such a thirst for correct grammar, perhaps you should grammar check your own reviews when talking bad about someone else's grammar. Should I cite instances of grammar errors in your review or is pointing them out in a general fashion sufficient?
Oh Lord of the Post, most grand on high one, I have dotingly captured the persona of LadyPlural for you:
STUPID BITCH THAT THINKS SHE'S SMART, YET MAKES THE SAME MISTAKE SHE CRITICIZES ANOTHER FOR. M'lord, I shall not waste your time with specific instances of her idiocy.
Truly,
Your most humble servant,
DLove
