NIGH-TEE-AND-FANN-JOURR-NAYH-TO-NOV-VEMM-BERR-FEST!!

“Wow, that was a really long introduction. And action!” A random director signalled the start of filming in a certain studio. At the same time, Fann and Nighty were driving past by said building, still using the monster truck Fann got out of JayWhy in exchange for less homework. Bwahaha. “We are finally back on track! To Tanama State! Where are we?”

“We just crozz the border from Gouha into Teriyuka State!” Fann wiggled his fingers on Nighty’s face. “Ew! Get that off me! You’re making me all dirty!” “Well, it’s just been 20 minutes since we escaped from HaghZac and Majulk, and it’s all a bit wee peaceful. Why don’t we try something like this!?” Fann suddenly turned the steering wheel randomly left and right. “What the!? No get off it man!!” The monster truck slid left and right repeatedly.

“Get off it man! You’re going to get us in trouble with the cops again!” Nighty forcibly held Fann’s hands on the wheel and the monster truck was back to normal. “Geesh, you take the fun out of everything. Tree hugger.” Nighty’s eyes widened. “How – just how am I that!?”

“Just what?” “A tree hugger! I don’t believe in global warming and climate change! It’s all ridiculous! Ice ages and sea rising levels ... pfft.” “I dunno ... somewhere deep inside you, inside all your gooey ickiness is a side saying that you love being a tree hugger.”

“I hate you ...” “Grumble ...” The duo stopped short – there was a voice that wasn’t theirs and he’s above the car. “What was that!? I is going to look!” Fann looked up and onto the car roof. “It’s the Angry Looking Man.” “What – what is he doing here? Don’t stare into his eyes!” “Waizat?” “It’s rumoured that ... that ... he shoots out bacon from his eyes!”

“Bacon? Why didn’t you say so!? Starz at meh!” The Angry Looking Man grumbled and frowned worser, making it a staring competition. “WhoA AAAH! Stop your shenanigans and keep on driving!” Nighty saw Fann climb up onto the roof and he had to take on the wheel.

“HURRH!” Fann grumbled at the Angry Looking Man. “GGRRRH!” “Oh the awesomeness! There’s bacon coming out of his eyes!” Fann squealed. “Fann! How do you drive this thing!? It’s so hi-tech, even for me!” The monster truck started turning left and right randomly.

“Two can play at that game! Heat vision!” Fann’s eyes magically spewed fire at the bacon flying out of the Angry Looking Man’s eyes. “GHURH! GRRH!” The latter grumbled harder and the eye pew-pews merged into a flaming ball of doom, and indeed, it went kaboom.

“ARH!!” “GHRAAH!” The Angry Looking Man and Fann were sent flying apart from the massive explosion. “AH!” The explosion magically set the monster truck flying in the air as well. “I got you good, you” HONK HONK. “I hears someone’s aspeaking bad words! My honks ought to censor that horrible crap from this place!” A random hill-billy farmer laughed.

“GRRH!” The Angry Looking Man went blasting off again. “AH!! I’m too young to die!” The duo and their monster truck continued flying in the air, past the woods and curvy roads below them, eventually reaching what appeared to be a farm of yellow giant furry birds.

“CHOCOBOS!” Fann growled like a bull dog. “NO! WHY HERE OF ALL PLACES!? I just came here the other day!!” “Nighty! Get off your car now!” “What!? This is not my car!” “Just do it!” Nighty hurriedly got away from the driver’s seat, got out of the truck and was flying himself with Fann. “Look! Hay! Just nice! Nighty, hold me!” “Ew! I ain’t doing it!”

“Just do it if you want to live!” “FINE!” Nightmare literally swam in the air and held onto Fann tight. “AAH!” They slammed right into a 20 feet tall giant stack of bundled hay, while the monster truck crashed and slammed repeatedly here and there before crashing into a big barn and exploded in a big fury of doom. “Pluck pluck!” The chocobos scattered everywhere.

“Eh ... you can stop holding me now.” Nighty instantly let go of Fann. “Let’s get out of here. It’s nice to be nice on Zac’s good side ... but after what we did to his farm ... we are toast.” Nighty whimpered as they crawled out of the hay mess. “Why? There’s chocobos here.”

“WE can eat them! Right!?” “No that’s not right! We are in Zac’s place, and we know you were banned from here after LAST TIME!” Nighty glared at Fann. Fann flashbacked – he imagined himself and Nighty and Zac with happy faces riding on the chocobos on rainbows and child-like nature scenarios – “NO! NOT THAT ONE! Where did you get that from!?”

“It was THIS ONE!” Nighty flashbacked on an insane Fann randomly assaulting chocobos which had manly faces of fear etched on them, while Nighty cried on the ground and so did Zac, for Fann was going to eat his prize-winning chocobos. His wife Sunneh on the other hand, was laughing at a soap opera on TV inside and not caring about the animal abuse.

“Oh. That one.” “MERRHH!!” A loud shout coming from the main house was heard. “Oh crap. That’s Zac. He’s here.” A shot gun was reloaded. “And he has a shotgun!” Nighty bit his nails. “What do I do? What do I do!?” Fann took out a long range bazooka from the depths of his goo-filled pocket and smiled. “We just blast him up and cover our moves!”

“No! NO! That’s not what we should do!” “FREEZE!” It was the redneck Zac, with his red shot redneck of a neck and the typical redneckish farmer clothes. “Gulp ...” Nighty thought of the shot gun pointed at his head. “You again! Imma shootin you if you din get outta here now, you crazy Fanni!” Nighty slowly turned to Zac. “Uh hi Zac ... relax ... it’s me.”

“Buddy o pal!” Zac suddenly turned cheerily and instantly sad. “You have to help me! There was this truck that crashed in my barn and ... and ... imma losin so much money already! You need to help me find the culprit!” Nighty and Fann exchanged glances. They were the ones.

“We’ll do ... what we can ...” Nighty whimpered. “Oh than you! Thank you!” Zac bowed and kissed Nighty’s feet. “Ew ... even by me, that’s gross.” Fann said. “Quiet you ....” “No, crap you ...” “SQAUWK!” A chocobo croaked furiously at Fann. “It still remembers you ...” Zac said. “You almost ate this chocobo alive that time.” “I blame Nighty’s alcohol that night.”

“What!? Howsat to do with me!? Besides I never did –” “SCREECH!!” Zac’s wife Sunneh let out a loud scream from their home. “BIG THIEF! BIG THIEF!!” “Wazzat!? My wife!!” Zac, followed by the curious Nighty and Fann, ran from his shed of the hay mess and gushed into his house not far away. “Imma get you soon, chocobos ...” “Not now!!” “Squawk!!!”

The chocobos hissed as Fann ran. “Don’t hurt me!” Sunneh screamed as this big person ravaged through the first floor and stole all the family valuables, locking them in a sack. “I’m not going to hurt you ... I just want you quiet! Stay down!!” Sunneh screamed and cowered at a side of the living room. “Come on, love. Time to bust out.” “You got it. Let’s go.”

With a great strength, the tall being of big disproportions covered in brown clothes slammed through the front door and made away with all the family valuables. “The time now is about .... 8.25 pm.” “Fann, it’s no time for time keeping! Zac’s been robbed!” The place was messy.

“Sunneh, sweetie! Are you be okay!?” “I am be okay, dearie .... he took all the gold bars and jewels in the cupboard there ... we are poor again!” Sunneh cried while Zac hugged her to sooth her. “It’s alright ... alright .... whoever robbed us must be the one who crashed in my barn! Nighty Beedus Mare! I beg you – and your creepy friend – to help us get revenge!”

“Uh ...” “Not to worry! I has just the thing!” Fann pulled out a toy car from one of his goo-filled pocketses and tossed it outside the house. “Expand!” Fann pushed a button and the toy car expanded in amazing size and function to become a metallic speeding car. “Let’s get em!”

“You ... had a car in your pocket ... the whole time ... why did you have to snatch it away from your student earlier!?” Nighty hissed. “I forgot about that.” “You! I! Garh!” “Nighty, just go and stop him! I need my wealth back! I still have to pay the house mortgage!” Sunneh glared at him. “Why haven’t you paid the house bills yet?” “Uh ... because of bad times?”

“Bad times? BAD TIMES!? Ever since I married you, you’ve never done anything right! How can you leave those freakin gold bars and jewellery there –” “Honey! It’s not what you think it is! It’s not –” Zac and Sunneh thus had a fight over which Fann and Nighty went off.

“Hey Zac!” Fann tucked into the driver’s seat. “Your cow’s doing good there, flying in the air!” “MOOO.” A cow was supported by thick cloth attached to a helium balloon, seen flying out of the burning wretches that was Zac’s barn. “No! Not you! Wait, how did that happen!?”

“I did it! Ain’t it fun!?” Fann gawked and drove the car off to follow the thief. “How did you even – I’m not going to ask.” Nighty adjusted himself in his front seat. “Ew ... why does this goo taste like M&B chocolate?” “That’s because it IS M&B chocolate! Taste it! It’s good!”

“Mmm! This DOES taste good!” Nighty tasted more of the goo as they drove into the other suburb areas, chasing the thief, leaving a distraught Zac and Sunneh behind in the woods. “Let’s go chase some crook!” “Wait, what about NovemberFest?! I get the feeling we’re going off more and more off track!” “Let’s first save your friend’s cash!” “Uh ... sure.”

“Yeehaw!” The thief secured the big brown hat over most of his head. “Can’t let my identity be exposed ...” He strangely patted his stomach, which had a bulge there. “Good work, love, getting us out of there! Steady with the pedals. We’re going back to our base.” “Right! And don’t boss me around ... I’m doing this for you ...” His legs way below stepped on the pedal.

“Bound Boss strikes again!” The thief’s vehicle sped, approaching a sleepy village with 5-floor high wooden condos and swimming pools. “We’re there!” Fann said. “Gaining on it! Nighty, be prepared to fire!” Fann gave him a sniper gun. “Where do you get all the weapons from!?” “Just fire and aim for the vehicle’s tyres. On my mark ... fire at it.” “You’re crazy.”

Meanwhile. “And now, we are in lovey o town called Fusionville. This is said to be the hometown and birthplace of one of the ZV High Council’s major leaders, Groundy Bot. You can only expect peace and quiet here –” A TV host said before a major explosion occurred.

“ARGH!” The whole TV crew ducked and so did the populace outside. “Fann! Why does your sniper have a missile in it!?” “It does? Oh right ... must have pulled out the wrong gun.” “Speaking of which, how did that explosion back with the Angry Looking Man make us flip up in the air, despite of the explosion being ON TOP of the car?” “I dunno ... it sure be –”

“SAINZ!!” A big fat cook somewhere in the town chopped on a bare pig bunch of flesh. “Will you stop doing that?” A random customer named Randoom Domy said. “No! This is my pork bar and no one tells me what to do!” It was a big fat cook named Big Fat Tony.

“I hate it when those bits fly in my face.” Randoom said. Before Big Fat Tony tossed the pork into a deep oil boiling wok, a small explosion occurred at the far corner of his shop. “ARGH!” Big Fat Tony and Randoom ducked cover from the flying wood splinters as Bound Boss’ and Fann’s cars drove fast by the area. “You missed again, Nighty!” “I hate you!”

“Darn, they’re still on our tail! Love, help me shake them off!” “Work work work ... fine ... just because I’m under you, you don’t have to boss me around.” Bound Boss’ legs took out a remote control from under him and starting playing. “The casual oil slick will do. Hee hee.”

Bound Boss’ car revealed a compartment, spilling oil on the road. “OIL!” “Yikes!” Even Fann had trouble steering. “Turn it left! No, right!” The car swirled around as it kept going straight. They were closing in on a cross junction, when the thief drove left. “Wait a sec ... that complex by the horizon ... hey, my friend designed that crap!” Nighty said wildly.

“We’re going to crash!” They slammed straight into supermarket concrete wall, but no damage was taken. “Ow ... it hurts.” Nighty was thrown to the back seat. “Yeah ... le ow.” Fann grumbled. “Excuse me!” A man officer tapped on their windows. “Lemme see your ID! Do you realize what you just did!? Someone reported you causing all this destruction!”

“There they are, officers!” A woman named Faily pointed at the duo. “Oh great .... we’re going to jail for sure ... I just know it ... no dinner, no NovemberFest, no beer, and this is all your fault, Fanny!” Nighty grumbled. “LEMME SEE YOUR ID!” The officer said.

“Hee hee.” The thief gleefully said. “They’re gone. Those two won’t be following us again.” His legs snickered as well. “Wonderful. Let’s go back and split the loot.” Her hands tossed the remote sideways, as they approached an abandoned industrial complex on the road.

“Hee hee hee.” Bound Boss held the sack with all the loot. “Haha.” His legs snickered as she walked down from the deserted parking area into a warehouse. “Alright.” With the doors closed, the thief knelt down and pop, the tall being he was split into two people, with a man on top of the female being the legs. “Time to lose this mask – urgh.” The female said.

It was Hantany Corona, covered in thick brown clothes of her own. “Yeah ... identity is secure here.” The male removed his hat and it was Inn Nari. The worst criminals in all of Teriyuka State – and no one knows that they have joined forces as a single giant. “Lootie.”

“Wait, officers! You can’t be serious!” The woman named Faily shrieked. “I’m sorry, ma’am.” The officer named Suka Scarlet said. “If what these two men said is true, then we may have a lead on possibly some of the biggest criminals on the planet! Let’s go, boys!”

“RIGHT!” A flurry of officers drove their cars off, with Nighty and Fann leading. “If I’m right, getting Zac’s wealth back should be easy! My friend Afdam We was the one who designed that industrial complex during the last war! Why didn’t I see that before?! That whole place is locked down from that warehouse backwards. They can’t escape there!”

“Whoa, oil on wheels.” Fann drove right. “We’re going down there now ... what was that about the biggest criminals on the planet?” “Beats me. But we’re getting Zac’s cash and gold back before we’re going to NovemberFest.” The cars drove on and on down the road.

“There’s your half and my half. Done.” Inn Nari pushed gold bars and jewellery to Hantany, both having a same share, except for a ruby ring in the middle. “How do we split that one up?” Hantany asked. “I dunno. Why don’t we just keep it together?” “No, we split it up too.”

“Pawnshop?” “No. We cut the ruby in half.” “Well, that works. I want us to have more heists in the next couple of states, so ... will you continue to be my supportive?” Inn Nari stared with puppy eyes at Hantany. “Urgh ... fine ... you keep the ruby ring. It’s our pledge to be one. Come on, let’s go.” She put her mask back on and knelt to let Inn Nari on her, when.

“COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP! HANTANY CORONA AND INN NARI! YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!!” Officer Scarlet shouted through the mike. “We know you are in there, so come out before we ambush you and kill you mercilessly!” It was a big ambush.

“How are you sure it’s those two criminals?” Nighty asked. “Yeah ... look at that plate attached to the back of your car earlier.” Officer Scarlet held it up. “Gah, it’s too obvious.” Nighty was surprised to see Fann act normal for once. The sign read – HANTANY CORONA AND INN NARI ARE NOT STAYING IN THE OLD INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX. “Yeah, it’s kinda foolish of them ...” “Alright, boys! Let’s move, move!!”

“They’re here!? Let’s go!” Inn Nari grabbed his sack. “Garh! And I’m paired with you! Who gave you this idea of both of us becoming like this!?” Hantany had her mask on, secured her sack and hurriedly lifted him on her. “HURRY!” Inn Nari draped her with his clothes down.

“Alright, let’s move out.” Hat secure, they ran away. “Ah! This excitement is killing me!” Fann took out a bazooka and promptly fired a missile. “WAIT, NO – ARGH!” The front of the warehouse was blown apart. Nearly everyone flew in the air due to the strong pressure.

“Ah!” “Kyah!” Bound Boss barely escaped from the explosion, but Hantany carried on anyway. “You are surrounded. Give yourselves up!!” The cops armed with machine guns gushed into the place. “I’ll get those gold back!” Fann rushed first on. “Wait, hold up there!”

Just when the place was empty, and Nighty was the only one there, suddenly a giant bear with a headless rider came in. “RAWRH!!” It mauled all the cop cars and took a swipe at Fann’s car. “Argh!” Nighty crashed onto a nearby cop car. “Feel the beary fury of Ruin Narh Bear!!” The headless rider fired plasma balls from his shot gun all over the place.

“This is insane! I just want Zac’s stuff back!” Nighty rushed behind more cars, when suddenly a figure in a yellow costume and cape came flying out of the air. “Captain Awesome to the rescue!” The person did a flying kick onto Ruin’s face, throwing him off the giant bear. “NO! MA PET BEAR! THE KA-OUCH!!” Ruin shrieked in horror.

“What was that?” Nighty peeked from behind a cop car. Meanwhile, back in the complex ... “Run! Run!” “I’m trying my best, okay!? Give me a break! Whoa!!” Hantany continued running, dodging all sorts of items so that Inn Nari won’t have his head knocked over.

“Blow down that wall! Blow down that tank! Blow them all down! Mwahah!” Fann laughed insanely. Unfortunately, the cops did just that. “He said we can has all the peanut butter lollipops we want.” “Let’s dew it!” They ruthlessly kicked over tanks and pillars, tearing down the place. “There they are!” “Wait ... I only see one person.” “There has to be two!”

“Ow! Ah! Gah!” Inn Nari was knocked on the head with frying pans, pipes and oddly-placed ads. “Sorry, love!” Hantany sounded apologetic. “Ah! An obstacle!” She halted on her feet. Before them was a dead end, only with a metal door about 4 feet high and wide. “We have to crawl!? Aw, come on!” “No, there’s another way! Going up!” “WHOA! Careful there!”

“Whee! Blow them all up!” Officer Scarlet launched a C5 bomb at a pillar and brought down the entire warehouse. “What the!?” Nighty was shocked to see that: that, and the fact all the cops were running wild with cheers. “What are they doing in there – argh!?” “GWARH!!”

Ruin’s large bear, known as The Ka-ouch, began wiping out the cop cars on its own. “Haha!” Captain Awesome repeatedly punched Ruin in the guts. “IS that all you got!? Captain Awesome demands more from puny guys like you!” Ruin blocked a fist. “Gotcha! Fake!”

“NO one calls Captain Awesome a fake!” Captain Awesome stuffed a can of spinach in his mouth, and his arm muscles grew immensely strong. “Take that!” The hero boxed Ruin in the chest. “No! My head has been exposed!” A fake headless rider indeed, for Ruin had his head hidden under the chest section of his knight armour. “There you are, you fake!” SMACK.

“AH! No ~ my reign of chaos ~ ended before it even started ~” “AAH!!” Nighty kept running from The Ka-ouch; it slashed the cop cars to metal fragments with its heavy bear hands. “Where are Fann’s weapons when you need one!?” Ruin laid low on the ground unconscious. “Ah hahahar! Captain Awesome saves the day! No need to thank, fellow citizen –”

“YOU’RE NOT SAVING ME AT ALL, YOU DIMTWIT!” Nighty screamed back. “You dare call Captain Awesome a dimtwit!? I have you know I am an intelligent person –” The hero went on blabbering, with The Ka-ouch chasing Nighty serving as his background.

“There! A gun!” Nighty took one on the ground. “Whee! Blow them all up!” Back in the factory complex, Fann took out a detonator from his sticky pockets and activated it. KABOOM. The whole site was filled with smoke, as the giant place collapsed on itself.

“Ow! Over there! Left!” Inn Nari said. “Gotcha!” Hantany Corona jumped on several falling platforms before climbing over an iron wall closing in on her. “We made it – huh!?” The duo noticed that the industrial complex below them was in smokes and rubble. “We’re going to die!” “Not on my watch, love!” Hantany held Inn Nari’s legs and butt tighter to her.

“Whoa!” Bound Boss swung in circles in the air magically. The smoke subsided a little. “How did the Professor ever get bombs around here .... is everyone okay!? Everyone!?” Officer Scarlet recovered from the rubble. Most of his cops did so too. “We’re fine ...” “Ow ...” Fann’s hand emerged from the rubble. “I will never sell teleporting bombs again ...”

“There they .... are?” The cops stared at a singular being swinging in nonstop circles. “Whoa ... they ... it ... he ... she ... whatever! It’s coming down really slowly!” Officer Scarlet grunted. “Wait! Get them down now! Open fire!” The cops fired their Chicagoette machine gun bullets at the Bound Boss. “AH! They’re shooting us!” Hantany cried. “I can’t stop it!”

“Maybe I can! I should have done this!” Inn Nari took out a gadget. “Ah! Don’t mess with my head!” Hantany cried. She curled her legs and body upward to Inn Nari. “Jet propulsion, activate!” Suddenly, a jetpack from Inn Nari’s back emerged and fired them up. “Let’s go!”

“GAH! Our bullets will never reach them!” Officer Scarlet stopped his fire first. “GAH! Stupid bear! Die already! I don’t care if you’re the rare Majetikus horrorcaouhtes species of ZV bears!” Nighty fired a bullet at its head, and it growled and fell to its untimely death.

“I shall leave, fellow citizen –” SLAM. “Ow.” Nighty grimaced at the scene of The Ka-ouch’s giant beary head crushing Captain Awesome below it. “I didn’t know you, but good riddance anywho.” Nighty dusted his hands. “Urgh ...” Ruin grumbled and was going to get up when a woman named Faily stepped on his face. “OW! Aww ~” He fainted again.

“Officers! This man was the one who caused trouble back in Gouha State! Arrest him!” She pointed at Nighty. “Urgh ...” Fann got out of the rubble. “MY head hurts ... where’s my deer meat?” “THAT MAN TOO! He is responsible!!” Faily shrieked. “We have a lot of people to arrest here, boys, but these two men are not them ... and arrest the lady! She’s annoying!”

“WHAT!? NOO!” Several fat cops pounced and landed on Faily. “What are you doing!? NO!! Let me go! Let me of an old lady go!!” Some cops handcuffed up Ruin, the wanted escaped criminal as well. “Argh ... that was horrible ... wait, what about Zac’s cash!?” Nighty said with realization. “Oh, right! That criminal, Inn Nari, Hantany, whichever, is escaping!”

Officer Scarlet came out. “Urgh ... oh look. Flying cows!” Fann pointed to the sky. All looked up. “Why ... why didn’t you use your jetpack earlier!?” “OW! Hey! Don’t pinch your body like that!” Inn Nari grumbled at Hantany. “Nice legs ~” “Hey! I may be under you! But I deserve some respect! Huh!? What’s that!?” Out of nowhere, Zac’s flying cow came in.

SLAM. “AH!” Both the duo shouted. The cow knocked them, and it continued its flying journey in the air to somewhere no one cares. “No! The jetpack is malfunctioning!” The machine on his back puffed smoke and they were flying haphazardly all over. “Kyah! Hold me legs!” Hantany reached her legs up to Inn Nari’s face. “Argh! Hey! Stop it! ARGH!”

They crashed into a quicksand puddle not far away from Fann and Nighty. “Ah!” Inn Nari shouted. “Argh!” Hantany surfaced from under the liquidy sand. “Argh! You should have flown away in the first place!” Her mask flew off and so did Inn Nari’s hat. Both their faces were seen. “Ahah! So it is you two after all!” The cops pointed their guns at them.

“Really? Seriously? Help us out already!” “I don’t want to sink!” Nighty sighed as the mess in the industrial complex was being cleaned. “Urgh .... we promised to get Zac’s wealth back ...” Nighty fell in disappointment. “Not exactly.” Fann drove his car up to him. “Look here!”

“Nighty!” Zac came running to the duo. “You saved my cash! I can finally pay my bills! And my house! And I think I should go on a honeymoon with Sunneh. She’s getting grouchy again ...” Zac disgustedly grabbed the sacks of gold and jewels from Fann at the driver’s seat. “Next time you set my cows free again, and eat my chocobos, I’ll really kill you for sure ...”

“You’re welcome!” Fann crashed into Zac’s motored scooter. “HEY!” “That’s for not letting me eat the chocobos!” “WHATEVER!!” Zac scooted off peacefully. Nighty facepalmed. “He must have followed the flying cow here ... and if I’m not mistaken ... he’s going the opposite direction of his cow ... is he not going to claim it back?” Nighty grunted and relaxed himself.

“Well, all is solved. Come on in, Nighty. Ah crap I’m starving. And it’s only 10.45 pm. I’m hungry, but ... let’s save the empty stomachs for NovemberFest.” Fann said. “If we can drive down the highway there, for the next 40 minutes, we should be in Tanama State in no time.”

“You sure? Wait, how did you get his cash back?” “Those two criminals dropped them on my head when the cow crashed them.” Fann took out a gold bar with a sneaky smile. “And this gold bar is a charge for my services.” Nighty was shocked. “BUT!? WHERE!? WHY!? AH! Forget it! I just want to eat my dinner and get this night over with!” He entered the car.

“Relax, Nighty ... it’s all well and soon cool.” Fann drove them out of the mess, starting their journey back again. Meanwhile, a considerable distance from them, another tall being laid their eyes on the duo. “Interesting. Those two took down the Bound Boss just so easily. Our list of enemies gets thinner. Do you think we should pair up with them?” A female asked.

“I dunno ... I thought this was supposed to be our only secret hobby ...” The male voice under her, and the purple cape and overall red costume, winced. The car engine spluttered occasionally. “Let’s follow them.” “Fine ...” The tall being went off. Meanwhile, Nighty was cheering in the car. “Alright! We’re out of this village!” “True that! Back on track.” Fann punched in the turbo gear and they sped past Groundy Bot’s hometown, Fusionville.

“Hey man! Not so fast! Not past the speed limit!” “Imma dun caring! I want to eat food and dinner as much as you do! Bwahaha!” They closed in towards the national highway.


End to Entry 7.

[Nightmare]

Well that was... A thing... XD

I liked how the Angry Looking Man can apparently shoot bacon out his eyes... And I'd eat at Big Fat Tony's Pork Bar any day of the week.

AND DO I SEE SOME SUPER REDWHICH FORESHADOWING!?


Glad to see you working on this again. Keep it up, I wanna see how this whacky journey ends.

[Professor Fann]

Thanks very much for the comments, Purple. In fact, here's the final set of chapters and the thus conclusive end to NIGHTY AND FANN JOURNEY TO NOVEMBERFEST.

Enjoy, everyone who reads!!


-------------



Entry 7: Oddball Road-eo

Nighty and Fann continued driving down a long lane of road onto Tanama State, which should come pretty close, since Fann said that NovemberFest was only 40 minutes away.
“Ah, all is peace and quiet. I want more of these days to come.” Fann said.

“You’re joking! You’re the source of most of this mess!” Nighty squealed. “Nah. Look at this!” Fann held up the gold bar he stole from Zac. “Yeah, I’m going to hate you for that. When he and Sunneh get back from that vacation ... you are so toast.” “What happened to the deer meat we were eating a while ago?” “I dunno ... must have dropped it or something.”

Five minutes. “La lala la ...” Fann’s long salty tongue came out. “Ew! Keep that where it belongs – in your mouth!” Nighty made the girly shooing hand movements at him. “What about those goo I gave you?” “I’m eating them. Keep off my chocolate goo!” “I was mine to begin with.” “Ah! But you GAVE it to me.” “Crap you.” “No, crap you.” “ROAWRH!!”

“What the!?” Nighty and Fann stared behind them, behind the car. “ROAWRH!!” It was a giant green person, with a baseball bat made of human skulls glued together with the horror that is the amazing goo of Fann! “It’s Majeh! I mean, Majulk!” Fann shouted. “What’s he doing here!?” Nighty glared at Fann. “Revenge for that time you threw an onion at him?”

“Or was it garlic? I don’t care! DRIVE!!” Fann stepped on the pedal. The car zoomed faster on the road, and Majulk growled more, awving his giant human skull baseball bat in all possible directions. “Majeh SMASH YOU! Majeh WANT REVENGE!!” The Majulk growled. “It’s like we’re in the Blouse of the Dead arcade game!” Fann squealed.

WHAM. “AH!!” Majulk’s giant baseball bat smacked their car right in the air, throwing them off the road to Tanama State. “NOO!! My food!!” Nighty whimpered at the scene of Tanama State running away before his eyes. “How did he escape anyway?” Fann asked. “That doesn’t matter right now! We need out!” Nighty opened the car door and climbed above the car roof.

“RAH!!” The Majulk ravaged out of the long road, ripping off all the giant trees in his path beside the road, determined to chase after Nighty and Fann. “Majulk wants to kill you now!” He growled again. “I’m out of here!” Fann likewise climbed above the flying car. The car, flying in the air, began to rotate in circles. “Run over the car!!” Nighty said. That they did.

The scenario of the flying car, plus Nighty and Fann running over it whenever it rotated, and Majulk chasing after them in the forest, was watched over by a pair of evil binoculars. “Mwah haha.” A moustached man laughed from the confines of his evil zeppelin. “Revenge will be mine.After what you’ve done to my brother and kin. I will get you two crazies.”

“We are live, reporting no good stuff from the town of Fusionville, where –” A random male reporter by the name of Rick Troll said in front of the camera. “My town! My hometown! Who could have done this!?” It was one of the planet ZV’s major politicians, Groundy Bot. “Who could have – it’s Fann I bet it! It’s him again!” The bearded man grumbled. It was a chaotic scene, with police securing the place. “I want him tried before the ZV High Council!”

“But ... he practically created the planet. Why should we arrest him?” Random police queried Groundy Bot. “Besides, he and his friend helped us arrest Inn Nari and Hantany Corona.” Cops secured the two fugitives and sent them off to jail. “I don’t care! I want him tried! He brought out so much destruction here and there –” “Why didn’t you say so?” It was a woman named Faily. “I want to testify against him! I want to try him! I want to!!”

Groundy Bot smiled. “What crimes has he done to you?” “I saw him corrupt the cops, I saw him insult little old ladies like me on the street back in Gouha – he even almost ate my cat!” Groundy smiled at Faily. “Good enough. See!? Let’s go and arrest him!” The cops hesitated and had no choice but to go out and pursue the fugitives. “Go go go go!!” Groundy played with his beard. Meanwhile, elsewhere ... “Oh come on. More trouble for yourself, Tony?”

“It’s Big Fat Tony to you, Randoom!” The big fat chef with whale blubber for a neck growled. “Look! I have CCTV footage! They wrecked my Pork Bar! Again! Like the last time back in Gouha!” Tony’s thought bubble appeared, and it was an image of him hugging a soft little teddy bear – in his weird little world – smiling and the drool hanging from his face ... when suddenly, Fann grabbed the bear and ate its head, and Tony cried in mourning.

“... no, that’s the time he took your bear and wrenched his head off.” Randoom said. “It’s the same thing!” Big Fat Tony flashbacked. He was a cheerful thin married man, with a gorgeous wife and chubby son, ready to open his new healthy food shop in Gouha, when suddenly, Fann came out of nowhere and ate the head of the teddy bear he held in his hand!

“Nooo ~” Tony instantly grew fat, his family abandoned him, and his healthy food shop was smashed by a tornado in that one instant, and ever since that day, he became Big Fat Tony! “I hate him ... I hate him so much ~” The fat chef cried, and Randoom looked at him with bewilderment. “I don’t believe it. No really. How could that happen to you in a flash?”

“I dunno ... it just did.” The fat chef whimpered, and then turned fierce. “I’m going to get him no matter what! He humiliated me five years ago, and now is teh last strawz!! I want to kill him!” Big Fat Tony walked like a sumo, with an iron bar in his hand. “Must get Fann!!”

Randoom shrugged. “Sounds like a good adventure.” The duo set off on their own revenge tale, well, not Randoom anyway. Meanwhile, back at the evil zeppelin painted in pink ... “They are so going to die ... so going to die!!” The moustached man laughed in evil. “Aerith! Set our course east! We shall plunder the next state bank!!” He talked to a sleek secretary.

“Yes, sir.” Aerith Rinn saluted the evil man, known as Noah Zac, brother of the imprisoned Hagh Zac on false charges – which no one really cares anyway – of cop corruption – the peanut butter lollipop of doom! “I’d better peek before the boss sees me.” Aerith took out her own binoculars. Nighty and Fann were still running on their flying rotating car.

“MAJULK SHALL GET YOU!!” The giant green monster occasionally jumped to try and grab the car and the duo. “Gah!!” “Whoa!” Nighty and Fann kept on running on their car in circles. “When are we getting out of here!?” Nighty asked. “I dunno. Keep running.”

“And when are we going to stop flying in the air!?” Their car was still flying in the air. “I dunno! Keep running! Then we will survive!” They were thrown off of Teriyuka State and entered a rogue territory named Nijouba State. “What!? Nijouba State!?” Yes, I said that.

“Fann! This is horrible! We’re going into Nijouba State of all places!!” Nighty grabbed Fann by the collar. “You don’t say!!” “I do say!! Wait – why are you so anxious?” Fann bit his nails. “I – Nighty, I haven’t been honest with you on some things. I created this place. And this is the place where Majulk was born, as the biological weapon he is. Not only that ... it’s a place run down with filthy crime. If only the King didn’t ask me to leave this place ...”

The car collapsed on the ground, exploding, but they are still flying. “What? How’s that relevant?” Nighty was confused. “I – well, the King Xero made a bet with me. He said that if one day, for just one day, if I didn’t do my crazy lab experiments on living people, I could rule the whole planet. But it I did my experiments ... on someone ... I have to get out of my own home.” Nighty was stunned. “Well, you and I have been together for some time ...”

“I did an experiment on a Rene Gade, and ... the King made me get out! The place turned into disrepair, Afdam We was loose, and now crime is all over!” Fann sobbed. “... I still don’t get how that was relevant.” Nighty said. “I know. My words are just a plot device. Narrators ...”

“ROWARH!!” Majulk jumped and nearly grabbed them. “AHH! Back to reality!” Nighty and Fann held onto each other again. “We’re going to die! In my former home! And I’m still hungry!!” The time now was 11.20. “This whole night has been your fault!!” Nighty shouted.

“For you knows why, you caused so many incidents and all of them are like culminating today! Today! Of all times! When I want to eat dinner!!” Nighty strangled Fann in the mid air. Suddenly, an object came flying to them – it was a small airship. “LOOK OUT!!”

“Target sighted.” A male voice said, stepping on a pedal. “Alright. Let’s get them. This is our chance to get rid of crime, once and for all.” A female voice said, pushing some levers. The airship’s hatch opened and Nighty and Fann nicely entered it. “ROWARH!! MAJULK WILL GET YOU SOON!” At the same time, a human beaver emerged from the ground.

“Must bite ogre!” It sank its teeth deep into Majulk’s right leg, and the green giant was left yelling and rampaging through the woods again, heading to uncertain directions this time. The evil zeppelin of pink suddenly headed into Nijouba State territory. “Let’s prepare to attack the next state bank! But in the meantime, let’s us rest and prepare!” Noah Zac said.

“YEAH!!” An army rallied to Noah Zac’s calls in the midst of a fallen iron industrial complex. Nijouba State itself was a giant complex of tanks and old technology of rust. “Where’s that blasted secretary of mine? What is she doing!?” Noah said as he and his company left the rallying place for his private chambers. “We will look into that, sir ...”

The lone small airship landed somewhere else in the vast rusty Nijouba State complex. “Ow ... where are we?” Nighty grumbled. “My butt hurts ...” Fann rubbed his head. “Why – how – why are you rubbing your head when your butt is hurting?” Nighty said in disbelief. They were locked up in some sort of containing prison when the airship hatch swallowed them.

“I dunno ... it just does.” Fann said. “Gah! You are so weird! Why do I even pull up with you –” Before he said anymore, a click sound was heard. A tall being, covered in red and a purple cape, surfaced and pointed at them. “Get them!” “Yes!” Many grey-suited guards entered.

“AH!” Nighty shouted. “Ssh! Not so loud! The enemy might hear you!” The guards hushed Nighty up and led him to a podium. “No, I’m back here again! You want some chocolate jello?” Fann asked as the guards hauled him from the airship, past another army of people, and threw him to the podium. “Hush, everyone! Our saviours are here!” A female voice.

The army of people stood still in silence, as the mighty red being, seemingly of two people’s height, walked up to the duo on the podium. “These two will help us lead a resistance and end crime on the planet once and for all!!” The female voice, behind her grey metal mask, said.

“YEAH!!” The rallying call was louder than even Noah Zac’s rally earlier. “Are you sure?” The male voice from inside the tall being. “We organized this resistance, yes, we fought crime outside of this state in secret, yes, but you had to bring these two who stopped Bound Boss by accident and you want to reveal our secret hobby to our resistance!? This is nuts!”

“Hush ~” The female ontop the male voice said. “Our army doesn’t even know how we look like till today. They’ve only heard my voice as their commands so far. Our secret is still safe.” No one else heard their conversations. “What is going on here?” Nighty asked.

Meanwhile, the human beaver named Beaver kept on biting Majulk’s body parts. “Majulk mad at silly little creature!” He slammed his human skull baseball bat everywhere, throwing up trees all over, and he was soon heading into the vast Nijouba State complex.

“Get searching! That madman has got to be somewhere around here!!” Groundy Bot and the woman named Faily gleefully laughed together in a luxurious limousine. “They must be around here! They can’t be far around! I’ll have Fann’s head if it’s the last thing I do! First he insulted my Dr Laaytonie games! Now he wrecks my hometown! I will get him!!”

“STOP!!” Faily said, and the car came to a halt, and a lot of cop cars slammed into Groundy Bot’s limou. “My car! What have you got to say for yourself, wimmen!?” He growled at her. “Look there!” She pointed to a chocolate gooey item on the road – the same chocolate goo that Nighty loved eating when he was at Zac the farmer’s place. “I see a clue! He’s here!”

“Secure the area!” The cops walked about and searched for clues. “Look! A trail!” Faily pointed out to the path made by trees slammed out of the way by Majulk. “Let’s go get them!” Groundy Bot glees to himself. The cops entered the area. Much is soon to be told ...

“So that’s how the boss looks like.” A soldier named Spexy said to his friend named Rene Noneball. “I don’t care. I spot that miserable guy with my eye, and I want revenge for what he did to me!” Rene hissed as he stared at a clueless Fann looking at the tall red being.

“Comrades, you now know who I am – how I look like!” The tall red being waved in front of her army. “Tonight is the night! A revolution takes place today! We will tear Nijouba down to the ground and destroy crime for good!” The army shouted again in unison. “For too long has the planet been mingled with crime, and for 9 years, we laboured to this end!”

The army shouted again. “I’m getting uncomfortable ...” The male voice inside the tall being said. “Hush, not now, Sorrum. Please wait.” Fann awed at the place. “Nice chandelier.” “This is no time to ponder at chandeliers! We have to get out of here before things go worse –”

“Finally, the entire planet is peaceful, all crime except in the States of Teriyuka and Nijouba has been eradicated! With the help of these two awesome men” – the tall red being pointed at Nighty and Fann – “the evil Bound Boss was captured and peace was brought back to Teriyuka!” The army gasped. “And today, they will help us defeat Noah once and for all!”

The army rallied again. “Time for you all to rest! The call will be signalled in a few hours, and then, Nijouba and all its crime shall fall!” The tall red being saw her army rally with shouts, before ushering them out to their own places. “What is going on here?” Nighty asked.

“You will see soon. Guards, lead them into the chamber! I have work to do, and my assistants will be with them shortly!” The tall being ordered, and it was done. Nighty and Fann with no words saw the last of the tall being, and before they knew it, they were left in a giant room, painted with red all over. “I still don’t know what’s going on.” Nighty said. Fann sighed.

Big Fat Tony and Randoom were riding on a scooter together, already outside of Fusionville. “I will get him – I will get him –” Randoom asked: “How do you even know if they are going by this route?” “I just know! Don’t challenge my awesome meaty skills! I smell Fann!!”

“Ew ... if you say so.” Pretty soon, they encountered a large group of cop cars on the road, parked there. “There! There he is!” “But, how do you know?” “I just know! His annoyance and aura I can feel and smell it!” Big Fat Tony raised a cleaver in the air. “I will get him ... he is the source of all my hate and troubles ... and he even milked me of my Tony Rage!!”

“Personally, I thought that was awesome.” “Away with you!!” Big Fat Tony bounced his way to the open path of the trail where Majulk was once there. Back at some far end of the Nijouba State ... “Yes, yes.” Noah smiled with glee. “We will soon be rich again, and I shall be the crime lord of all the planet!” “We know that, boss ...” A minion said. “Where is she!?”

In a dark alley, inaccessible to all save two ... “Well, they won’t be seeing Great Redwich for some time now ... ow, Sorrum Finn, you can let me down now.” The tall being removed her mask, and her malely legs allowed her to descend on the floor. “Quick, back to normal!”

“Why do I put up with you ...?” Sorrum took off his part of the Great Redwich costume and stuffed them into a bag. “Because you love me, and I love you, and since you love me, I want you to do my stuff with me.” Aerith took off her costume and resumed being her original identity of being Noah’s secretary. “Quick, hide those, but bring them with you later.”

Out of a secret door in front of Nighty and Fann, Aerith and Sorrum came out. “What is going on here!? I want out!” Nighty demanded. “Me too! I want to go to NovemberFest!” Fann said. “Uh ... our boss sent for us to guide you. We want you to help us defeat Noah!”

Nighty’s eyes widened. “Noah – Noah! Why didn’t I think of it before!? Isn’t he one of the planet’s biggest crime lords!? And ... he’s here!? Right in Fann’s former labs!?” Sorrum then answered: “Well, we – I mean, our boss has put many bosses in jail, and Noah’s the last one on our list. Can you help us? We’ll let you go the moment all this is done. Please ~”

“Please ...” Aerith made puppy eyes at them. “I – I mean, our boss needs you. We only want a peaceful world.” Nighty grimaced. “When pigs fly. I don’t want a boss hot on our tail.” “I agree! Let’s do it!” Fann raised his hand. “How – what – are you nuts!?” Nighty hissed.

“Done!” Aerith said. “We’ll help you along the way! Improvise in whatever situations you can! So, here’s what we are going to do!” The girl dragged them to a table and unveiled some large paper detailed with lots of secret details. Nighty grumbled. “I want to eat my dinner ~”

“Majulk smash youz!!” Majulk finally grabbed onto the human Beaver with his bare fists and threw him out in the sky. “Whee!” The human Beaver gleefully flew in the sky. “What is this monster!?” The cops and Groundy Bot and Faily encountered Majulk. “It’s a peril! It’s one of Fann’s engineering monsters! Get him!!” The cops instantly launched tazers towards Majeh.

“ROWARH!!” Majulk easily fended off all of them but one of them got to him on the spot where Beaver chewed its teeth in his leg. “AAH!!” Majulk collapsed, and because it was a steep hill, it began rolling downward – onto the cops, Groundy Bot and Faily. “Get out!!!”

“Oh dear.” Randoom said, while he and Big Fat Tony were climbing up the steepy ground. “What’s that?” Tony said. “My random plot device senses are tingling. I’m get out of here.” Randoom went back where they came from. “What?! What are you talking about!?”

“Get out of the way!!” Cops and Groundy Bot yelled as Majulk came furiously rolling down onto them. “AAH!! I’ll remember this, Fann!! You will never get away from this!!” Big Fat Tony ran away from the impending doom. When everyone thought they would flatten, a sudden curve on the ground allowed them safe shelter, while Majulk rolled into the sky.

“Captain Awesome to the rescue again!” The yellow capered person flew in the sky. “I have stopped the evil that is Ruin Narh Bear, I have defeated the evil Ka-ouch, I just saved an old lady from being eaten by poison-spitting kitties, and I sense trouble in the area – AH!!”

Majulk slammed into Captain Awesome, but by the sheer power and awesomeness that is Captain Awesome, his amazing flabbo jello of his body repelled Majulk off in the opposite direction. “Captain Awesome will return again ~” The capered guy spoke as if he was exiting out of his scene, being thrown off in the opposite direction. “Everyone seems to be flying.”

Randoom wore a red robe, was smoking freshly-brewed cigars and was reading ‘The Life and Times of Me’ by ... himself, on the road. “We ... we’re safe!” Groundy Bot said. “YAY!!” The cops cheered. “Let’s go get that Fann! I want him arrested in the name of the King!!”

Back in the evil fortress of Noah which is not only rusting, but also painted in pink. “I desire to recline even more!” Noah Zac said. “We will launch an attack on the next state bank after I have fully replenished my boredom! Where is Aerith my secretary!? Get her here!! Now!”

Noah was reclining in a colosseum-like chamber, with his various minions by the audience ready to cheer upon his entertainment. “Ah hah ...” Aerith came running to his side, seems to be exhausted by something, followed by her own trusty secretary Sorrum. “I’m sorry, Your Honourable Evilness. I was sick.” “You’re always sick whenever I need you, woman!!”

“In any case. I bring to you entertainment. Release the bandy boys!” Aerith ordered and Noah’s minions opened the gates. Out came Nighty and Fann, disguised in Mexicans Macarena band suits and heavily-attached moustaches. “La la la! We bring Mexicano!”

“YAY!” The audience cheered. “Today Imma going to sing a special song for you!” Fann played horrible music with his guitar. “You fool of a Fann! That’s not how we play music! We must play music with the Vilex Lizard Clones!” Nighty slammed a guitar on his head and sent him flying in the air. “What – how – how do you even fly when I – gah – your nuts!!” The audience laughed. “Brilliant!” Noah said. “Release the Lizard Clones!” Fann said.

“Rawrh! Rawrh!” A big bunch of human-headed walking lizards entered the chamber, and Nighty and Fann, who apparently bounced back from the jumping, found themselves singing strange songs and whacking the lizards away to protect themselves. “Gah! Not these things!”

“Hey, I invented them.” “Stop saying you invented everything!!” Nighty slammed a lizard onto the audience. “AH! Lizard clones! Get off!” Noah’s army began disintegrating. “This is our chance! Let’s smack them all to the audience!” Nighty urged Fann. “Way ahead of you!”

“What the!?” Noah began to be alarmed. “Yes!” Aerith cheered. “Time for my sneaky exit ~” She whispered to herself and slipped away. “Here’s more lizard clones for you!” Fann had stuffed a bunchful of them into a giant cannon he magically conjured from the depths of his pocket, filled with goo of course, and fired them close to where Noah was. “Yay!”

“AH!! Get me out of here! Huh!? Where’s my secretary!?” Noah cried as he neatly dodged a lizard clone. “Ladies and gentlemen, if that’s not enough for you, I have us a rodeo tonight!” Fann pressed a button and a flood of raging angry bulls burst through the windows and doors.

“AH!!” The rampage was horrible. “Ah!” Nighty was knocked off by an angry bull and Fann happened to catch onto his leg, so he was dragged into the air as well. “Hey! Where did the bulls come from!? That wasn’t part of the plan!!” Nighty said, and he flashbacked.

“Right, so when you two let go the lizard clones, I’ll get my boss to act, and we’ll have the resistance armies sweeping in the place and we can stop Noah Zac and his heinous ways of crime once and for all.” Aerith finished briefing them earlier. “Well … if you two have any ideas on how to further disrupt the place, that would be great.” Sorrum said. “Yeah. That too. Just so long as my – I mean, the boss’ armies get to catch the evil Noah.” Aerith replied.

“Oh that.” Nighty facepalmed, and the duo slammed through a glass roof. “Ow … wow, look at all the chaos. I bet loads of people will be killed.” The duo looked down. “Oh, don’t worry. No one really dies in a story like this.” “What are you talking about!? This is not a film or something!” Nighty hissed at him. “They’re not just any bulls. They’re the Salty Bulls.”

Nighty stared wide-eyed at Fann. “Salty Bulls? What the” HONK. “I hear badwords!” A random farmer honked on his tractor. “I want to get whoever’s saying lots of bad words and bad stuff tonight!” “are Salty Bulls!?” Fann pointed down to one instance. “Look there.”

“AH!! NO!! So salty, tongue, tongue!” A rampaging bull used its long elastic tongue to grab and wrap a random Noah soldier in its sheer salty horror. It then flung the soldier elsewhere, before it was ravaged by the horrible lizard clones. “NO! AH!!” Spexy was last seen there.

“Yay! Lizard Clones! Wee!” A random soldier named Vee Lixx cheered. “I want to enjoy my creations! Well, that crazy doctor from way back then took my DNA to mix with iguanas and a chameleon … let me join you guys!” Vee Lixx jumped into the lizard clone pile. “Whee – this is fun – wait, no, what are you doing!? Not me! Not me!! NOT ME!! AH!!” He yelled.

“You do NOT want to know what happens when you get caught by a lizard clone.” Fann said to Nighty. “I think I’m going to puke …” Nighty struggled to hold it in. Meanwhile, Captain Awesome was still flying in the air as a result from colliding with Majulk earlier. “Time to save my kitties and then – gosh, there’s nothing left for me to do – I wonder what I should do next – OUFF!!” He was slammed on by a flying plane, driven by the Angry Looking Man.

“Meeeh! Rrrh!” Was all the Angry Looking Man grumbled. “Rrrrh!!” He grumbled some more before he flew off again in a distance. “I will return, my humble citizens!” Captain Awesome shouted to no one as the duo went flying off again. Who knows when he will be back. “Alright, let’s get out of here. Get a car and go back to the NovemberFest.”

“Right on! Now you’re talking.” Nighty said, and he followed Fann walking on the rooftop. Meanwhile, at some random alley that no one could access to … “Right, there we go, there we go.” “Ow, my head hurts.” “Sorry, Sorrum, my stomach can be full with food …”

“I know. Ow. Oh, my belt.” Sorrum, being under Aerith, adjusted his belt before resuming holding Aerith tight and proper. “Right. Great Redwich is ready.” Aerith wore her mask and folded her cape. “Calling all troops. Burst in now and shoot all to neutralize. Now!” She said through her walkie talkie, and in the instant, the place was rumbling with even more noise.

“We are here!” Groundy Bot, a woman named Faily, a reporter named Rick Troll who surfaced again out of nowhere with his crew, and a bunch of cops came to the end of the thick forest, and they witnessed before them the State of Nijouba collapsing before their eyes – tanks and other buildings falling, fires and smoke all over, and a strange yelp of the lizards.

“What has Fann done …? He’s like destroying his own home.” Groundy Bot said. “Grrh … I hate to say this, but … retreat! We can’t handle this chaos! Let’s go back! Call all the cops to be on an alert in Nijouba’s neighbouring states! I want Fann and his accomplice arrested the moment they enter those states! I want him tried! If he ever escapes tonight, that is …”

“Retreat! Call reinforcements!” The cops said and ran back the way they came. Then, out of another corner, Big Fat Tony and Randoom came. “Where was the politician Groundy Bot!? I could have sworn we followed him – whoa.” Big Fat Tony looked at the wide-spread destruction of Nijouba State. “Isn’t this Fann’s actual home? Why would he let it collapse?”

“Who cares? I’m outta here.” Randoom pressed a button and he had an instant jetpack on his back. “I’m going back home. Take care of yourself, Tony.” Randoom did not manage to go, since when he lifted, Tony grabbed onto his leg. “No you come back here! I want you with me so you can see me fulfil my revenge!!” “No you idiot! Let me go! AAhh!!” He yelled.

The duo were flying haphazardly and nearly crashed into the Majulk, who had just finished his fall and was not recuperating in the fiery mess that is the self-destructing Nijouba State. “Ah! Let go! Let go!” Randoom said. “Never! You will be with me!” Big Fat Tony cried.

“Are you crying?” “NO I’m not! I’m just sobbing ~” They also crashed below, amid a mess of metal and polluted stuff. The resistance soldiers were running over, shooting down any living thing and the enemy army. “What is going on here?” Big Fat Tony said. “ROWARH!”

It was the green Majeh-turned-Majulk, green in his muscle busty glory and his human skull baseball bat. “Majulk wants revenge! RAH!!” Majulk began taking it out on Big Fat Tony and Randoom. “RUN!! AAAH!!” The duo yelled and ran through an amazing complex, which is not detailed here, and Majulk played a part in his destroying the entire Nijouba.

“Alright. Our job here is done.” Aerith said as Sorrum ran on for Great Redwich. “Troops, tonight the revolution is a success, thanks to you. After this, you’re free to go back to your daily lives. Oh. And I already made sure you are all fully paid for your heroic deeds.” She spoke through the walkie-talkie. That was the last the army heard of Great Redwich.

“Are we really going to just leave them here? That sounds cruel.” Sorrum said as he dodged some fiery pieces and jumped over a gap on the rooftop for them. “Just focus on running, Sorrum. Besides, tonight I have a surprise for you. Ah, there’s our escape to freedom!”

She said as a helicopter lay before them. “Thanks to those two, Noah will surely perish in this flames. Time for a good night’s rest.” “But … I’m sure the world needs us more as Great Redwich, right? Right? I … I love doing this.” Sorrum sounded sad. “Oh well, look it this way, Sorrum. At least our secret is kept safe.” Then suddenly, another two more people arrived – Nighty and Fann. “Our ride here to escaping!” Aerith was shocked. “No! Mine!”

Sorrum ran, and in the end, Nighty and Fann beat them to the controls, but they had no idea how to control it. “Let me do it!” Sorrum kicked and Aerith punched them away to the backseat, while they assumed the controls. More places started to collapse and burn. “We are good! Engine’s running! Oh crap, I’m not supposed to talk!” “Never mind that! Let’s go!”

The helicopter lifted just before the building beneath it collapsed, and the fire was ever lasting since Fann had like 20% of the planet’s oil stored there, so … anywho, they were safe and off. A great majority of the industrial complex has collapsed in the fire. “We’re free!!”

Nighty cried. “I’m never so glad to be alive! ALIVEZ!!” Fann sighed. “I’m glad too. All my old works is being destroyed in the fire. THIS TIME people will die.” Nighty glared at him. “Your works should have been destroyed a long time ago.” “Nah, I have copies of them back in my military complex in Tanama State. The King keeps it for me. It entertains him.”

“Speaking of which, what did you do to Rene Gade anywho – AH!!” An explosion close to the chopper. From a distance, a lone-standing building on its roof stood Noah and a few of his minions, and with Noah holding a missile launcher in his arms. “I’ll get you for this!!”

“Oh crap, he saw us – I mean, me.” Aerith remarked, since she and Sorrum are now part of Great Redwich. “I will get you, Great Redwich! You have foiled me again and again! Today, revenge is mine and then I will show your identity to the world!!” Noah yelled out crazily.

“NO! Revenge is mine!!” Rene Noneball came out of the stairs and kicked Noah in mid-air. “NOO ~” Noah was consumed by the fire, and in a distance, Majulk was trapped in the ever-hot fire, melting him alive. “RAWRRrrrr ~” Majulk is then confirmed dead. “Ah! Made it!” Big Fat Tony pulled Randoom out of the fiery pit, and where they stood, only one building was standing, surrounded by a state filled with fire and oil. “Look! There’s a fight there!”

Randoom pointed out. “Who cares. I just want to get revenge on Fann! Let’s go!” “Hey, don’t pull me with your mouth!” Big Fat Tony held Randoom like how a dog would hold a stick – by biting it with its mouth – and scampered out of the area. At another side … “Whoa, look at that.” Groundy Bot looked at the sea of fire. “We can use that to prosecute Fann!”

The woman named Faily said. “Yes, you’re right. Plus, luckily we managed to secure the falsely-imprisoned Hagh Zac from a few chapters earlier.” Groundy Bot smiled, as cops snapped photos of the burning Nijouba and they brought Hagh Zac in chains to witness it all.

“Yesh, he will pay. He will pay!” But by a mere chance, Faily accidentally tripped Hagh Zac and the bank of evidence fell into the fiery pit. “AAH!” He died. “Wimmen! How could you!? We can prosecute Fann with him as a witness to his corruption!!” Groundy shouted.

“Eh … oops. Let’s get out of here first. Well, you have all the evidence right here.” Faily pointed to his brain. “Oh yeah, I forgot about you.” Groundy Bot said. “Let’s go.” The cops left, and now it was Rene Noneball and Noah’s minions against the chopper. “Get this!!”

Rene fired another missile. “That’s one of my soldiers! What is he doing, firing at his own boss!?” Aerith said behind the mask. “I will not forget what Fann did to me years ago!!” Rene shouted as he fired missiles non-stop. Noah’s minions were cheering on him.

“You! You INJECTED cancer cells into Rene!? That was the crazy experiment King Xero bet with you!?” Nighty was flustered. “Well, yeah, I designed cancer cells that are meant to eat up any gangrenes and such, but Rene is the first case where – you know – he got kinda … impotent, and he didn’t have gangrenes. It was strange. So I called him Noneball.”

“I’m gonna kill you!!” Nighty strangled Fann even harder. “ARGH AGH!!” Fann choked. His salty bulls, the lizard clones, and any oddball creations of his were all gone now. “This is stupid! I’m getting us out of here!” Sorrum stepped on the pedal. The chopper flew off.

“Good job, Sorr – I mean, yay me!!” Aerith said, still not wanting anyone to learn their secret. “Yay, we’re off!” Nighty and Fann cheered. “NO! Don’t you dare ignore me!” Rene pointed the missile launcher on the roof floor and accidentally fired. “AAAH!!” All yelled.

The building exploded in the inferno, and all the minions and Rene fell to their deaths. “Oh.” Nighty stared. “That’s gotta hurt.” “Hey, Aerith” Fann said but was interrupted. “Quiet! I am not Aerith! She is my assistant! I am Great Redwich, her boss!” “Well … Great Redwich, what happens to all your soldiers?” Fann asked dumbly. “They’re all fine, pssh.”

“Huh?” Aerith looked down to Sorrum’s head. “They’re all fine, everyone just kinda ran to the other side of Nijouba and escaped when someone let the oil supplies go burst, and the flames spread everywhere.” Sorrum whispered. “Uh … wonderful. Good work computer.”

Nighty raised an eyebrow. “But that whisper just came from your stomach –” “Quiet! When I said that was my computer, that WAS my computer! Now, let me drive so I can send you off in – where do you want to go?” Fann raised his hand. “Tanama State. NovemberFest.” “Well, I’m letting you off in Hershing State, the next state to border Tanama. Too bad.”

“Aw man!” Fann grunted. “Man, Aerith, you’re such a bad liar.” Nighty said. “Quiet!! I am not Aerith! Aerith’s fine – with the other men – she’s fine~” Nighty and Fann exchanged faces. “What a bad liar you are.” “I am not!!” Nighty and Fann laughed their hearts out, with Sorrum speechless inside her, as they flew off in the opposite direction to Hershing State.

Entry 8: Lotso Troubles, The Fest, and The End

Nighty and Fann kept on flying in the chopper, owned by Aerith and Sorrum. Unlike what she wants, it seems that Nighty and Fann have learned about her being Great Redwich, but luckily, they didn’t know who is inside her. They flew past Nijouba into Hershing State.

“Why go to this neighbouring state? NovemberFest is in Tanama!” Nighty asked. He didn’t have to look down; Sorrum was seated way below the normal seat level. “That’s my home – I can’t let you see where I live. You might do stuff to me!” Fann hushed. “Pffft. Some trust you had in us. You were hoping so much me and Nighty stop Noah Zac for you, Aerith –”

“I told you I’m not Aerith!” She quickly denied it. “Whatever.” Nighty laughed at her. Inwardly, she growled. Finally, after all that burning inferno, they arrived in Hershing State. “There, you can go now.” Aerith grumbled. “Fine, milady.” Nighty said. The duo left.

Suddenly, an alarm rang. “Freeze!” A great number of cop cars approached the empty green grounds, and cops pointed their guns at the duo. “You’re under arrest! Come with us quietly!” Aerith was shocked. “What do we do?” Sorrum asked. “We’ll just leave. Now!”

Sorrum stepped on the pedal and they flying off again. “Stop! Suspects are leaving! Open fire!!” All the cops fired their rounds at the fleeing chopper. “Whoa! Duck!” Fann pushed Nighty to the grass. “I have to fire a missile to distract them, Sorrum! Forgive me!” Aerith said. “Be my guest! We need to leave here now!” Aerith pressed a red SKULL button.

“What is the – run!!” Cops realized a missile was heading at them, and they ducked. The missile tore the ground apart, throwing up loads of people and objects. “Yes! Let’s get out of here!” Aerith piloted the chopper away. “Why are we flying again!?” Nighty yelled. “I dunno! Why don’t you just enjoy it!?” Fann answered. “Crap you!” “No crap YOU!!”

The inferno caused an alarm in the nearby solitary neighbourhood. “This is ... it’s a prison land!” Nighty said. “All the criminals are here!!” “Probably they’re eating goo, just like how I taught them –” “How can you say that at a time like this!?” Nighty said. Meanwhile ...

In the prison. Oh nom nom nom. “This jello is good.” A prisoner named Vile said. “Mine comes with chocolate and banana flavour.” Another prisoner called Zacky Cat said. “Cool!”

“See? The narrator agrees with me.” Fann beamed proudly. Nighty facepalmed. “Anyway! DO you have any of those devices to help us get out of here!?” Fann digged in his pockets and took out a Mokeball. “What is that?” “Bee Bane! I chuuuse you!!” Fann said and threw the Mokeball. It opened out and unleashed another of Fann’s engineered creatures.

“BEE!!” It was a giant hornet, with a tiny human face on its head. “I call him Bloodbane.” “Gah! Anything’s fine! Let’s get out of here!” Nighty grabbed onto Fann and magically dragged him onto Bloodbane. “Bee Bee! Let’s head to Tanama State now!” Fann said.

In a luxurious chamber in a limou ... “Interesting. I like your plan, Grounder.” It was yet another ZV High Council politician named Swimmy Doo. They toasted to some champagne. “What about me!?” A woman named Faily said. “Eh, bullocks.” Grounder threw the bottle in his face, and it hurt. “OW!” “A toast to a great success.” Grounder and Swimmy toasted.

“Yes ... I can finally have that Fann arrested. Too long after all these years, our King has been protecting him because of all his insanities that entertain him ... well, it’s time to turn things in our favour. Let us rule this planet under a new king!!” Groundy laughed. “Yes... to me!”

“Halt!” Swimmy said. “The new king should be me. I agreed to help you in this plan of yours!” “Well, I should be king! I know power and politics more than you do!” “That’s not true, you machine!” They argued over how to take over the throne of planet ZV. “LOOK!” Faily pointed out. “There’s a giant bee, with Fann and his friend Nightymare on it!!”

“What!? Let’s go! WE can talk about who gets to be king later! Let’s tell General Weakrema about our coup and go!” The limou sped out and more cop cars drove to cause up to Nighty and Fann. “Call in the bazookas! Call in the mounties! I want Fann alive than dead!!”

“What is all that noise!?” The prison guards moved to try and look what is outside of jail. A giant hornet flew by, and many cop cars and limou gave chase. “What is that?” Many guards were curious and surprised at what they saw. In the cafeteria, only Zacky Cat and Vile were left there. “Wow, you don’t see this everyday.” Vile said. “Pssh! Hey guys! Come quick!”

It was another prisoner called Cemduc. “I just managed to dig in my prison, so we can get out of here! The trick is to try and dig over the XZero glomes they planted underground. Those things will alarm the guards with their annoying screams if they catch you!” Zacky Cat smiled. “Alright! Come! Let’s go!” Both prisoners scampered all the way to Cemduc’s cell.

“There!” Cemduc pointed to a really big hole in his cell. “Quickly! Before the guards find out!” The trio duck and crawled underground in a hole too big to not notice. “Alright. We better get crawling and running before the underground lasers get activated at 1 o’clock.”

“What time is it now?” Zacky Cat asked. “About 12.30.” Vile said. “It takes us 35 minutes to crawl, you know. Ain’t I smart?” Cemduc beamed proudly, but Vile and Zacky flustered with anger. “You idiot! We won’t have time to escape if we delay! Get moving now! NOW!!”

“There they are!!” Big Fat Tony came scathed out of the Nijouba forests, and happened to come close to the cop cars and Groundy Bot’s limou chasing Nighty and Fann on the latter’s giant pet hornet. “Whoa. That’s a large bee.” Randoom remarked. Suddenly – HONK.

A wild-looking car approached them, and it was an angry Zac and a cuddling Sunneh. “Whee! This time’s trip is fun! We should do this more often!” “As long as you give up your soap operas, it’s fine.” “Hey! Those dramas sustain me, or else I will die!” “Sup, dudes!?”

Randoom called to Zac and Sunneh. “Say, have you seen that crazy guy Fann around? Tony here wants to kill them – Nighty too – since they trashed his Pork Bar. So ... no pork.” “WHAT!? That is an outrage! First they steal my one gold bar, now they trash my friend’s restaurant! Get in here! Let’s go get revenge again!” Zac shouted. “Uh ... again?”

Zac recalled the time Fann savagely chased and wanted to eat his chocobos. “Oh, that. Cool! Let’s go! Get that idiot!” Big Fat Tony bounced into the car, but Randoom followed along. “Those cop are are getting him! Let’s go and get him too!” Tony said. “Alright!”

Zac sped down the road, and their ruckus made such a noise in the neighbourhood that about 90% of the neighbours woke up with irritation. “What is all that noise!?” “We need to sleep here!” “Yeah!” The neighbours came on the streets with torches and pitchforks. “I bet it was that guy Nighty here making trouble again! Him and his video games plaguing our children!”

“Fellow rednecks! Let’s go get him!!” They pointed out at the giant Bloodbane hornet, with Nighty and Fann on it. “Rev up the pigs! It’s time to make them fly!” And the farmers went back in to start their mechanical engines. Meanwhile, back at Nighty and Fann’s side...

“Oh no.” Nighty said. “What? What Oh No?” Fann asked. “Bloodbane, take us high up in the air!” “SQUAWK!!” The hornet nodded and flew higher. “They’re escaping!” Faily pointed out. “Right! Where are those bazookas when we need them!?” Swimmy growled at him.

“Keep a tracking signal clear! We need to know where they are!” Officer Suka Scarlet said. “Even if I hate to do this to the guys who nabbed Corona and Nari ...” He had his tracking device locked on Bloodbane. “Phew ... I think we are safe.” Fann said. “By the way ...”

“Oh no. I just remembered I’m not welcome here. There’s a big bunch of Silver’s relatives and rednecks around here, and they don’t like me working on my video game career. We have to get out of here now. Go to Tanama State directly. Now, Fann, tell it to do so now!”

“Okay ... if you say so ...” Fann was going to give the order when ... “Get them, boys!!” A leader redneck pointed at Nighty. “OINK! OINK!” Thousands of redneck farmers were riding on magical bacon pigs with wings. With wings!! “Fann ... is this another one of your maddening creations?” Fann shrugged. “What? I was a crazy scientist. I had ideas!”

“Gah! Your ideas are horrible at the wrong times!” Nighty blurted out. “Attack that heathen who plays video games!!” The rednecks released fiery balls from their slingshots. “Ah! How’s that possible!?” Nighty shook. “Relax. Bloodbane, use Red Laser!” Fann said.

“ROAWR!!” The giant hornet fired lots of laser beams from its eyes and moved all over, destroying the fiery balls in one go. “That monster! Attack it and its heathenish ways of life!!” The rednecks fired more fiery balls towards Bloodbane. “Use Whirlwind now!”

Bloodbane flapped its wings again and again, repelling the fiery balls, this time lighting up the magical bacon pigs with wings’ wings on fire. “SQUEAL! OINK! OINK!!” “Our pigs! No! Now we have to pay double to the government for harming these pigs – retreat!!”

All them rednecks descended to the ground, going to put off the fire on their pigs’ wings. “Wow, that was something ...” Nighty awed. “Yeah, you’re welcome. Without further ado, let’s go and fly off to Tanama State, directly. Bloodbane, let’s go!” Fann said. “YAYAY!!”

The giant hornet flew off safely, and it seems on the ground, the cops even stopped giving chase – though likely, for a strategic advance. “We got them tracked on this device alright!” Officer Suka Scarlet said. “They’re heading to Tanama State, for sure. It’s saying here.”

“Excellent! Then let’s go to the border first. Whatever! This time, get all the cops in Tanama to be on alert, and General Weakrema –” Swimmy was interrupted by Groundy Bot. “The General only knows we are going to siege the royal palace, but he doesn’t know why.” “Wonderful! Then he will blindly accept me as the new king of the planet!” Swimmy said. “No! Me!” A woman named Faily said. “Oh you shut up!” Swimmy and Groundy said.

Some minutes later ... “Oh dear. Bloodbane is getting tired ... and I’m getting tired.” Fann said. “What say we just stop somewhere, eat dinner and not NovemberFest, and then we head back home?” Nighty was angry. “What!? So we came all this way for nothing!?” “No ...”

“Then there’s no point in going back when the both of us agreed to embark on this journey! It’s already been 5 hours or so, and we shouldn’t give up!!” Nighty slammed his fist onto Bloodbane’s back. “EEK!!” The giant hornet shook itself. “You shouldn’t have hit him! He’s sensitive!” “I thought Bloodbane is an ‘it’?” “I dunno, I’m not even sure myself ...”

Bloodbane jerked some more, and the duo were thrown off his back. “AH!” “Bloodbane, return!” Fann took the Mokeball and zapped Bloodbane back into the depths of his pockets. “We’re falling again!!” Nighty said. “Look, trees!” Fann pointed. “That’s not going to help us, you dumbtwit!” Nighty clamoured. “We shall see!” Fann grabbed onto his hand.

“What the!?” Fann grabbed onto a thin piece of leaf. “WHAT!? WHAT ARE –” Nighty protested, but then something happened. That thin piece of leaf was connected to a thin branch, in turn connected to a branch getting gradually thicker, and was attached to the bark of a thick tree. “Wow.” The entire branch relented, and it hanged the duo to safety.

“How – what – how is that even possible!?” Nighty fell on the leafy ground lightly, while Fann let go of the entire elongated branch. “Oh, it’s easy. They’re called the Leaf trees. It’s the only tree in the world to do that. You just need to know how to look at it, that’s all.”

“Oh – I’m saved.” They were in the midst of a thick forest, and at the same time, in the journeys, Swimmy and Groundy Bot were furious to learn from their cops that the device lost track of the duo. “Get them! Where were they last seen!?” “In the Shaunman’s Forest.”

“Go and get them! They can’t be far!” Groundy Bot’s limou screeched again before the cop cars slammed into his limou again. “Argh! I hate this journey! I just want to get back at Fann!” The cops received the orders and began scampering about to enter the Forest.

“It’s dark and scary ... and scary, and dark.” Nighty said. “Nah, let’s just try and find our way around here, shall we?” Fann replied. “I hate you so much right now ...” Suddenly, a wolf howled into the night. “Let’s try by going in the opposite way for starters ...” Nighty said. “I agree. Let’s!” The duo scampered off and they were going down a clear path to ... nowhere.

“MY my my He be there!” “The ponies scruggle!” “Long live Zero!” A sudden shout of many voices out of nowhere, and its source was a great herd of human-like creatures flying to their direction. “AH!! What is this!?” Nighty said. They were blue and red, with firefly wings, and having the head of a fellow ZV citizen who often does not show up in the forums.

“Oh no! It’s a XZero glome!” Fann dragged Nighty and pulled him down the cleared path. “Their annoying screams of utter nonsense are loud enough to alert the fuzz to our presence! The cops use them in all their jails to prevent criminals from escaping!” “What kind of creature is that then!?” “Must be something I created. I dunno. I became a billionaire by selling these things to every jail on the planet. Pretty handy.” “I’LL KILL YOU, FANN!!”

Nighty pounced onto Fann and they went tumbling down the hill with hilly trees. “Pancake scofy too!” “Dragons are fake!” “Global warming is never faked!!” “Majehland is not doomed with the skumcprles!” The XZero glomes continued their nonsense words. “Must be in the original DNA ... or was it mine – OW!!” Nighty made Fann’s head slam on the ground. “Serves you right for that one!” The duo kept rolling down. It never stopped for 2 minutes.

“What’s that noise!?” Cemduc said, as he burrowed out of a hole. “I dunno, but can you give way!? Zacky Cat needs to go the bathroom, and you’re blocking my way!” Vile said. Cemduc did just that, and Zacky Cat was the one who pushed Vile out with her mighty fist, sending him nearly flying. “I need to have a leak!” Before she could do that, a glome came.

“Intruders! Intruders! My by by! Cops alert! Cops alert!” The XZero glome shouted. “AH! A glome! Let’s get moving!” The criminals ran and were just behind the rolling Nighty and Fann. “AHH!!” They were thrown into a gully filled with water, and the XZero glomes stopped there. “AWWW!!” They awed and flied off elsewhere. Cemduc’s head appeared.

“Phew ... away from the glomes – who do we have here!?” Cemduc said. Fann and Nighty emerged. “Ah! Are they gone!?” “Yes they are. XZero glomes hate water. Who are you?” Fann stared at the emergent Vile and Zacky Cat. “Wait, you’re escaped criminals!”

“That’s right!” Vile said, pointing a gun at Fann. “Give me your money right now! Or else you will be shot!” Zacky Cat took out her own gun. Everyone didn’t realize they were floating down a river of a gully, and the current was increasingly faster. “Money NOW!!”

“Alright, alright. I have some 20 kupos here now, I can spare you that –” “FALLS!!” Nighty shouted, and the five of them tumbled down the water currents. “AH!!” “Whee!” Cemduc took out an inflatable float and it instantly expanded. “Come grab my hands!” He said.

“Wait, not together at the same time! AH!!” Cemduc collapsed as Vile and Zacky Cat pulled him into the water. “Nighty! Grab that branch now!” Fann pointed out. “Right!” He instantly grabbed onto the thick branch of a tree, and suddenly at the nearby bridge, there was Sunneh, Zac, Randoom and Big Fat Tony on Zac’s car. “There they are! I will murder you today!”

“Oh hey Tony! What’s up? Is it taim for gurlz yet, despite the fact you can never get a gurl?” Fann insulted him. “QUIET! I shall get you and your heads today! You almost blew up my Pork Bar! And I want payments!!” Tony jumped off the car and was close to a holding Nighty. “Nighty ... let go ... he will kill us.” Fann said. “But I already want to kill you!”

“I will get you two first!!” Tony yelled. “Oh you’re right. I guess.” Nighty let go of the branch, and Fann flowed on the water with him. “NO!! I will get you!” Tony jumped with a big splash into the river, and the other trio waved him goodbye. “See you soon!”

Zac just remembered something. “Wait! I want my gold bar back!!” Nighty turned to Fann. “Fann ... give it back.” “Alright, you win.” Fann took the gold bar covered in salt and threw the bar straight at Zac. Unfortunately, it missed as it hit Zac’s car’s engine, and in that instant, because he never liked buying a new workable car and since he had fake spare parts for every part of the car engine, the carburettor exploded in yet another inferno. “AAH!!”

“Eh, le whoops.” Fann said. Randoom was thrown off into the stars. “See you when you open your Pork Bar again, Tony ~” He said while flying off. “Whee! This is fun!” Sunneh said. “Not now, wifey! I will get you for this, Fann – oh, my gold bar in pieces ...” Zac carried Sunneh on his lap as he opened an open parachute and was blown off by the winds.

“GRAH! Now it’s just me and you two twerps!!” Big Fat Tony swam to them with the giant cleaver in his hand. Meanwhile, Zacky Cat, Cemduc and Vile, having swept off by the river far ahead of the other trio were in their own predicament. “I hate you! What kind of exit did you conjure for us!?” Zacky Cat said while they were arrested on the river cliff banks.

“But – but I had it all fine!” Vile said. The cops cuffed them tight, after fishing them with a giant fishing net, and threw them into the cars. “Oh well, it was worth a shot.” A random cop said to another mate: “Well, we got them good, but we must catch the other fugitives too.”

“Yes, we must not them get pass here, or else they will spiral down into Shaunman’s Falls up ahead.” “AAH!!” Nighty and Fann found themselves swimming faster down the currents to evade the Big Fat Tony with a cleaver. Too late. “Oh there, Swimmy’s not gonna like this.”

“Get away from me! What did I ever do to you!?” Nighty said. “You destroyed my Pork Bar! You destroyed my Pork Bar! You destroyed my family and former life too!!” Tony yelled. The cops tried to keep up, but it was too late – Shaunman’s Falls was just ahead, and it leads straight down into an unknown cavern no one has dared to explore. “I shall – AHH!!”

“A man with a cleaver! Arrest him when he gets on the banks!” The cops readied their guns and watched Tony attempt to swim to either side of the river. “Gotcha!!” Some six cops grabbed onto Tony and dragged him up. “You’re under arrest for trying to murder people!”

“No! My revenge!!” Big Fat Tony squeaked. “Forget it. They’re falling down Shaunman’s Falls. They’ll never survive that fall. Not after who-know-what’s inside that cavern.” The cops said. “AAAH!!!” Nighty and Fann were indeed falling down the treacherous Falls.

“Fine ... if you say so ...” Big Fat Tony was led away. Splash. “Ah! The Falls! We need to get out of here!” “Righto!” Nighty and Fann tried to find some rock to hold onto, but they were led deeper and deeper into the dark and unknown. Soon, in the watery caverns, there was no light. And it was quiet. And then ... their feet touched solid ground. “Huh what the?”

“There’s ground here ... and the water flow is slower.” Nighty observed in the dark. “Hahar! That’s because you were swept off the big river and you have now arrived in my humble domain!” A male voice said, and instantly, flames were set alit on many torches by the walls of the caves. There stood someone who looked like a yogi, had heavy beard and moustache, and a crazy-looking face. “Welcome, fellow strangers. My name is Shaun Dee Sheep!”

“Shaun ... Dee ... Sheep?” Nighty stared at him. “What? I like the cartoon. And I shall treat you, my not-the-first-time-I-had-guests, to an awesome enlightenment. Come with me!” Shaun led them, shivering, into his wooden house just behind where he stood, and they were soon clothed in warm towels, a camp fire, and some sardine for food. “I refuse! No!”

Nighty threw the roasted sardines away. “I want to go to NovemberFest to eat some food, not to come here and be enlightened. The time now is almost 1.40 am. “Well, if you must ... but I insist you stay till you’re fresh and warm. But for now ... I shall meditate with my gurlz!!”

Out of the shadows came two familiar looking models – “Oh my goodness! The world famous Alice Lice, who has no lice in her head despite her arm, and Leila Strongdude, who is known for doing heavy jobs and is a former soldier during the war 10 years ago!!” Nighty said. Alice swung her blonde hair lightly, while Leila smacked back at Nighty with her feet.

“Quiet you! Don’t you think you can have me just because the master had us first!!” Fann blinked his eyes. “That just made no sense.” “You’re not one to talk!!” Nighty retorted. “Anyway – what – how – why are two famous people like you doing here with the nobody Shaun?!” Alice became embarrassed. “Stop saying the master is a nobody! Because ...”

In her flashback, Shaun used his mighty awesome powers of Ted to kill off the evil barbarians who attempted to sacrifice Leila and Alice to the gods some time 4 years ago in Gouha State – in fact, almost close to Nighty and Fann’s shared room. “Wow ...” He awed.

“These two have been with me ever since. If you have see my yoga shows, you would know how awesome I am – and how we can survive here for so long! Come my beautiful darlings!” Shaun held them and they walked – with their usual giggling – away from porch of his house.

“Erh ... can you at least show us a way out of here?” Nighty asked. “Just get out of this house the other way and then you’ll find a path leading to my brother’s house – his name is Ed Weakrema. He’s the General of the ZV Army.” Leila answered. “Yeah ... and don’t bother us again ... because we want to be alone with the master ... be gone when you are dry already.”

Nighty and Fann exchanged faces. “Well, at least we have good clothes here.” Fann pointed to a neat copy of their clothes, except that they were wet. Fann’s lab coat pockets had its strange goo in it, and Nighty had amazingly a replica amulet holding a photo of Silver’s face.

“Hmm. Could be worse.” In 30 minutes, when they were dry and done, and Shaun Dee Sheep and his two girls waved them off, Nighty and Fann rushed off the clear pathway and really found themselves close to the backyard of General Ed’s home. “Was great, thanks, bye!!”

Fann waved as they exited the cavern and climbed the stairs to Ed’s backyard – and it had an amazing view of the State of Tanama. “We’re here ...” Nighty panted. “Not yet, NovemberFest is done there, and we shall hurry. Let’s go ask Ed for help.” Fann said.

“Oh my dear ~” It was the sound of Silver cuddling up on Albero’s lap on one of Ed’s couches in the living room. “Thanks again for letting us stay here, Ed. Me and my darling want to stay away from Nighty for a while – Silver says she wants to spend time with me instead of her.” The green-haired KISS-like man named Ed shrugged. “My pleasure.”

“HEY ED! HEY ED!!” Fann shouted like a gorilla. “Hey, not so loud! You’ll wake up the neighbours! And I don’t want them rednecks to come after me again ...” Fortunately for Ed, Albero and Silver, they heard Fann. “Oh crap! Nighty must be here too!” “Eep!” Silver gasped. “Oh no! Where do we hide!? I don’t want Nighty Beedus to find out about us!”

“Well ... Fann knows about us, but I doubt if he’ll tell ... but you’re right. We gotta hide you! Where!?” Albero saw a thick piece of brown cloth beside him, ushered Silver to cuddle closer to him on his lap like a ball and covered her up. “Oh, this is new! So exciting!” She said.

“SSHH!!” Albero hushed her. Ed went to get the door. In the midst of a normal-looking neighbourhood amid a background of a giant city below, Ed greeted Nighty and Fann. “Oh! Look who we have here! Come on in! What can I do for you?” Ed said loudly. “Why are you talking so loudly? Are you hiding a secret?” Fann asked. Ed had a sweat line drop by his eye.

“What – what are you – talking about? I have no idea what you mean!” Nighty glared at Fann. “Hush, Ed here is my best friend, he keeps no secrets from me especially.” Oh he was so unknowingly wrong. “Come on in. How about a cup of tea, and a monocle?” Ed said.

“Eh, no. We just need to borrow one of your transports to get us to the NovemberFest carnival today. Or did it start yesterday?” Nighty said. “Oh, right this way. I’ll drive you to my office, so I can lend you a car.” Before Ed could do so, Fann saw Albero inside Ed’s house. “Hey, if it isn’t Albero, my teacher friend back at Bloodline University!!”

Silver gasped and shivered under the cloth. “Oh hi Fann! What ... brings you here? I’m just sitting down here, doing nothing.” Albero said. “Really?” Fann whispered back to Albero. “I know about you and Silver having” HONK HONK. “I am really angry! Someone keeps saying badwords and vulgar topics tonight!! Thatsit! I’m ma going to get my plane!!” A random farmer named Zanzibar Beih got off his tractor and headed to his barn house.

“I wonder what – or who – do we have here?” Fann mischievously tickled the armpits and ribs of Silver under the brown cloth. “MMmmmMMM!!” Silver was furiously trying to suppress her laughter and speech on Albero’s lap. “Hey, stop it! You’re tickling me!” Albero said, still trying to cover Silver. “Hey, Fann, we haven’t got all night, you know!!”

Nighty and Ed were boarding Ed’s monster truck. “Al, if you want to be friends with me, and get that budget of cash for your science stuff tomorrow, you’d better break up with Silver now and give her back to Nighty. Or else.” Fann furiously whispered to him. “Bye bye!”

“Hey Albero, can you take care of my house?” Ed cautiously asked. “Sure, I will! Just leave me be!” Fann gave Albero a last sneer before entering the passenger seat of Ed’s monster truck. When they sped off, Silver finally came out of hiding and gasped on the floor.

“No ... I don’t want my dearest Al to get fired at work ... you’re no chance when it comes to standing against that madman! He’s too powerful!!” Silver shivered. “Well, at least, let this be our last night together before ... we part ways.” He and she shared their last kiss, before she would return to become her deceitful role of being Nighty’s so-called girlfriend.

Pretty soon, they arrived at one of planet ZV’s airbase with all its planes, aircraft carriers and tanks. “If you want, you can borrow one of my planes – but be careful – I heard from Swimmy Doo and Groundy Bot that you two are so-called criminals and are wanted for deposing the King Xero himself. Let’s get you two out of here.” General Ed said.

Nighty widened his eyes. “What!? That’s impossible!! I dare not take on our beloved legendary king! Well, maybe Fann is the only one who can do so, but – Fann, did you want to depose King Xero?” Fann became fierce. “No! That’s impossible! Many years ago, I fought alongside the King to stop the planet wide war and then crowned him king! If I wanted to be King of the World, I would have done just that 10 years ago! I wonder ... who could it be?”

“Gasp.” Ed said as they entered the hangars. “It must have been Groundy Bot and Swimmy Doo themselves. But – how unthinkable. They’re my friends!” Nighty growled. “What is going on here?” Fann retorted. “You can never trust a person named Swim, especially Swimmy! He’s just hostile to everyone. And Groundy Bot is pretty much just power hungry. I wonder why I ever put him on the ZV High Council ... oh yeah, he gave me the sad face.”

“He gave you a sad face!? That’s how he came into office!?” Nighty growled. “What? He was a mime, before he became a politician.” Fann remembered the mime in the sewers who gave him the sad puppy-eye face. “I hate you for that ...” Nighty said. Fann recalled it.

“Oh yeah. Ed, you owe me 50 kupos.” Ed was surprised. “For what?” “You challenged me to gnaw on Zac’s chocobos last time, remember?” Nighty widened his eyes again. “That was YOU!? I thought – how could you – you loved chocobos!” “Not all of them ... I remember Zac nearly had one of his birdies peck my eye out.” Nighty stopped at a halt.

“So, Fann, all the crazy stuff you did all along – was it someone who paid you to do it, or was it all you?” Fann sighed. “Of course it was all me, except the chocobo case. I own the worldwide bank, why would I need money? Haha! Look! There’s a good plane there!”

“Come back here and talk to me – oh, that IS a good plane.” Nighty stared at the fighter jet at the end of the hangar. “I designed it and I want to pilot it.” Fann said. “What are you, mad!? I had enough of your driving, and I want someone to do it!!” Nighty protested. “HMPH!!”

The female’s voice silenced everyone. “Then your pilot will be me – Marie Darko – the best there is in the army.” Ed Weakrema was pleased. “Yeah, she’s the best alright.” “Let’s go you bunch of hooligan –” FLASH. The hangar was brightened. All was around shocked.

“What the!?” “Freeze!” Many cops and SWATs entered the place. “Get them! I want revenge for what they did to my town!” It was Groundy Bot, having arrived at the scene. “Yes! Well done General Ed! You have captured the criminals who wanted to depose the King!” It was a proud-looking Swimmy smoking a cigar. “I want to charge him for my cats!” Faily said.

“No you guys are the fugitives!!” Ed took out his heavy machine gun and fired everywhere. “AAH!!” All the cops dared not fight back against the weakling General Ed. “Hide!” The ZV High Council folk dodged to safety, but Faily was killed in that instant. “The General is a traitor! I will get you for this!” Swimmy said. “Cops fire back at the General! NOW!!”

“Alright boys, sit on tight, because we’re going somewhere – where do you want to go?” Marie said. “NovemberFest! We’re hungry like crap!” Nighty and Fann said together. “The Fest huh? Hm, that was a good place. I ate there just today, it was cool. Let’s go!!”

Marie started the engines and they were flying off vertically, crashing through the hangar roof and zooming off behind. “Urgh ...” Ed laid on the floor, dead for realz. “Let’s go and surround the palace! Let’s just say Fann and his friend killed the General so that they could get all obstacles in the way out and then depose our King for good!” Swimmy said.

Tanama State was a big state, and sadly for Nighty and Fann, NovemberFest was on the opposite side of the state. “Hurry hurry!” Nighty said. “Quiet! I’m driving here, you” HOOONKK!!! “Thatsit! I am be tired of you young’uns keeping talking with yer badwords and wulgar topics!!” The farmer named Zanzibar Beih bellowed through his mike.

He was flying in the air, and was directly above Marie and her fighter jet. “I’m going to shut yer mouths for good! With mah missiles!” The farmer launched two missiles, but Marie dodged them by turning the plane 180 degrees, so the missiles hit themselves and exploded. In the cities below, all people were shocked, screamed and ran for their lifes.

“Dangnamit! This old man’s trying to play with me, huh!?” Marie bit the end of her cigar and pressed a creepy-looking green button. A hatch opened somewhere, and lots of XZero glomes came out heading towards Zanzibar’s plane. “My my by!” “Economy is bad!” “I want cheese!” “Doggie loggie soggie!” Those annoying glomes annoyed Zanzibar a lot.

Meanwhile, the Angry Looking Man was flying his plan, with Captain Awesome still mumbling to himself on the tip of the front. “And now, Captain Awesome has officially circled the planet in the last few hours! Hurray me!” The yellow caper said to himself.

“Mrrh grrh!” The Angry Looking Man still drove his plane, and it was heading towards Marie and her fighter jet. “Ooops. Incoming projectile. I’m spinning us around, fellas.” Marie turned the driving wheel, and the jet was turning circles in circles over, before sliding just past the Angry Looking Man’s plane. “AAAAH!!” Nighty and Fann held each other tight.

“Darn these blasted glomes! Oh no, I said a bad word myself! What –” Before the farmer Zanibar Beih knew it, he and the Angry Looking Man crashed planes, exploding in another inferno fury, and this time definitively killing Captain Awesome, unlike when the Ka-ouch bear merely caused him a head injury. The people below scurried to safety and yelled.

“Alright, boys. Let’s go to your NovemberFest – huh!?” The fighter jet was captured by a powerful magnetic field, and its source came from – directly King Xero’s palace. The not-so-legendary king himself was awake! “Uh oh! Looks like we’re stuck!” Marie said. “We’re going to die!” Marie turned off the jet engines and they were taken away for a ride.

Soon, there were in the compounds of King Xero. “What is going on here?!” The king bellowed. “I’ve been hearing lots of stuff over the evening from one chaos to another on the radio and the TV, and I can’t get any sleep!” “Yeah, the king is talking to you!” Afdam We the talking dog spoke as well. Fann widened his eyes. “I thought Afdam We is dead.”

“Clearly not you little fool. Your transplanted mah brain into a dog’s body, after I’ve just met my friend Nighty here, because you bet with Xero AGAIN that you can store a human soul in an animal! Well congratulations it worked! So what’s going on here!?” Nighty glared at Fann. “You’re lucky I’ve not spoken to We for a long time, Fann ... I still recognize his way of talking ... so wassup mah brada!?” Nighty and the talking dog exchanged paws.

A chopper came busting into the compound. “Your Majesty, these two felons were going to depose you and declare themselves King!” Swimmy and Groundy Bot came in and shouted. The many cops came in to surround the area itself. With his mighty marble palace behind him, Xero turned majestically angry. “Is this TRUE?” Everyone cowered before him.

“No, that is a lie! Swimmy and Groundy were the ones plotting to do so! They killed General Ed since he refused to obey their orders for deposing you!” Fann stared back angrily at the king. “Fann, what are you doing!? You don’t challenge the King!!” Nighty hissed at him.

“Oh yeah!? Prove it to me by answering my one question!” Xero inhaled and exhaled. “What is the one thing most people in the planet except me hate the most!?” Swimmy and Groundy exchanged looks. “I dunno ...” “Me too...” They shrugged. “HAH! If you can’t answer a simple question like that, that mean cho lyinGG!” Xero bellowed. “How’s that relevant!?” The duo protested. “SHUTUP! I AM THE KING SPEAKING!!” Xero bellowed. Silence.

“Uh ... they hate cheese?” Nighty said. “NO! Everyone in ZV loves cheese you foo! And bacon! And tigers! So delicious ~” King Xero said dreamily. “I know the answer.” Fann said. All was surprised. “WHO IS IT!?” King Xero asked. “Simple ... it’s ME.” Fann said.

Everyone facepalmed. “That’s right! You got it right! So it means, Swim and Grounder ARE the ones deposing me! Men, arrest those foos!!” The cops instantly pounced onto the duo and tried to restrain them. “NO!!!” “I will get you Fann!!” Swimmy and Groundy Bot said each.

“Oh yeah, Fann. Did you inject cancer cells into Rene like I bet with you?” King Xero smiled. “Yes, I did. It was so hard to resist experimenting new ideas on human subjects ...” Fann gritted his teeth at the king. “Afdam We is a great help, being my advisor and all. Mwahahah.” King Xero laughed. “Yesh, I thought the cheese trick didn’t work at all.”

“I am insulted! Yoo know I love cheese – I mean, how could you do that to me!? Lurr me into that stasis tube and trap meh! Trap meh! How could you!? Now I lost my original body and now stuck here!” Afdam We said. “Well .. I blame the king.” Fann pointed at Xero.

“So that means in the morning, we’ll talk business and politics again, before I go on my crazy rock and roll tour across the country. I has some ideas on who will be the next ZV High Council replacements for these two traitors” – King Xero stared at the tied-up Swimmy and Groundy. “In the mean time, I am commending you, you brave female pilot.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Marie Darko. “Well, I’m off. I’m going to arrange a funeral for General Ed ... and remove his KISS makeup. See you sorry boys later.” Marie kicked Groundy Bot in the face and drove her plane back to her own hangar. “This isn’t over! I will get you – AH!!” The cops pounced and silenced Swimmy. Fann was playing with his tongue.

“Congratulations, you old crazy man. You’ve regained mah trust. How can I repay you?” King Xero said. “Your Highness, please tell us where to get to NovemberFest! Please! I’m so hungry!” Nighty said. “NovemberFest!? Sure!! Get out of my palace grounds, turn left and go straight by Fann’s crazy labs, and go left and straight, and voila yer at the town itself! It was GEEUDD!! I ate a bunch of hotdogs from the Fest today, without paying for them!”

Nighty stared blankly at Xero. “Don’t stare at the king, you foo! Pay him some respect!” Afdam We said. “Thanks, King!” Fann said and he dragged Nighty outside past the arrested Swimmy Doo and Groundy Bot. “Any time! And remember, let’s make more bets next time!” Xero flashed a smile and thumbs up at Fann. “Tell me I’m dreaming ...” Nighty said.

Past Fann’s military lab areas, the duo rushed down the prairie fields and came to the edge of a hill. “There!” Fann pointed down, and amid a small town and a forest, there was a giant tent with lights shining to the sky, and that was the tent housing NovemberFest shops and food of participants all over the planet. “We made it! It’s just a little bit more –” “MOOO!!!”

“Oh crap. Don’t tell me ... it’s Bossman the cow!!” Fann and Nighty looked behind them. It was a bull-like cow with black and brown patches all over its skin. “What’s he doing here?! I thought he is in the King’s compound or something!” Nighty hissed. “I dunno. I think I might have set him free by accident.” “WHAT!!?” “It’s a wonder Xero hasn’t asked where he is ...”

“MOOO!!” The large cow headbutted both Nighty and Fann with its awesome thorny horns of doom. “AAHH!!” The both of them screamed. “I’m going to let Xero know his cow is around later in the morning – AH!!” Fann shouted before he rolled down the hill like logs.

“Ow-ow-ow-ow!!” Nighty yelped in pain, as they rolled down to the almost-empty road and streets of the town below. “La la la la! WHAT THE!?” Rick Troll, the reporter-turned-truck driver was driving his truck of oil n the road when he spotted the duo rolling close to him.

“STOP!!” He braked instantly, but the truck slammed Nighty and Fann into the air again. “Why!? Why are we always flying!?” “It’s fun, don’t you think!?” “SHUT UP!!” Nighty grabbed and strangled Fann, as they pinballed around the buildings here and there. Luckily it was very quiet, or otherwise more ruckus would have been caused. “I hate you, Fann!!”

“I love you too! AHahahfkjdfnsfdjp!” He mumbled while he was strangled by Nighty. “Oh ow!” They pinballed off another building, crashing into a nearby park with no one in it, and then slamming into a garden of roses and flowers and caterpillars – EW. “Look, Nighty!” Fann threw away the caterpillars. “It’s the NovemberFest tent!!” The duo moved out of the park and just across the street – there it was. The tent of food and beer galore.

“We made it ... finally. Finally.” Nighty said and bowed to the garden. “Sweet sweet soil. I’ve been flying and driving so much ... and it’s all your fault!” Nighty went back to strangling Fann’s neck. “AGH! But we are already here! The carnival is just across the street!” He pointed to the giant carnival tent that hosts the NovemberFest and all its food.

“I know ... but I’m so hungry and it’s all your fault. And even worse ... it only opens at 6 in the morning!” Nighty knelt and cried. Fann looked at the carnival sign – OPEN FROM 6 am TO 12 pm. “We were too late ... and it’s all your fault. It’s your fault! I’m going to kill you!”

Nighty pounced onto Fann, and the duo struggled across the street. “Let go of me!” “I want to see you dead! You have caused me nothing but trouble! And to think I even moved into your condo unit! Why!? Why did I do that!? Why?!” “I dunno ... coz you’re my friend ~”

“AHH!!!” Nighty slammed Fann onto the door, but it gave way and they were already inside. The door shut tight behind them, and the place automatically glittered in lights. There was food, food, malt beer, all over the place. Hotdogs, fried chicken, ice cream, pizzas, spaghetti, noodles, more beef, malt beer and salted pork all over. Shining and shining. So edible ~

“Am I dreaming ...?” Nighty said. Fann pinched his cheek. “OW!!” “You wanted to know if you’re dreaming.” “True ... but ow ... these food. Are they all real?” Nighty walked over into the bar, which the carnival tent housed, and glared at all the food. “Can I touch them?”

Poke. “Hey, this meat is real.” Fann said. “Really?” Poke. “This ... is ... real food! Real drinks! I’m so hungry! But, wait, if these food are real, how is it possible for them to simply place it here? Don’t they rot?” “Hey Nighty.” “What?” “Can you help me taste this powder?”

“Powder!?” Nighty stared at some white sugar-like dust on Fann’s hand. “What’s that?” “Just help me confirm this. I think I remember what they are.” “Really ...?” Nighty tasted a pinch of it. “It’s ... cinnamon and ... liquorice spice of pepper ... what exactly are you getting at?”

“Ah! Now I remember! The planet wide war ended in November!” Fann said. “What?” Nighty asked confusedly. “10 years ago! The war was all over. So they wanted to have this feast to commemorate the end of wars! And they wanted the food to never rot no matter what! Those food people came to me and asked me to develop something for them.”

“Every year, I get an order in my labs for spices that make food never rot for about 2 years or so. This means the food here is real! What they ate today at the start of NovemberFest, and they replace new food here to get ready for today’s crowd. So ... I guess it’s chow time?”

Nighty smiled so widely, he felt the end of his lips touched up to his brain. “For once ... your creations are awesome!” “Yeah I know. I am awesome.” “Not that!! But ... how can we eat this? Aren’t there any security cameras around?” Nighty looked around. “Nope. I don’t feel it. There’s no aura or ... the feeling of lensed machines around. Or even spyware.”

“You sure?” “That, and this tracker of mine says so.” Fann glared at his machine the size of a pencil. Obviously, it was covered in purple goo, from the depths of his pockets. “Ew ... so anywho ... let’s eat!!” Nighty and Fann ran to engorge in all the food before them.

Pizzas, deep pizzas. Fried chicken, salami, pattas, vegetables, cheese, Mack in a Rectangles’, malt beer, spicy beer, potatoes, bacons and beef, pasta, bread and marjarine, apple peas, more fruits, hotdogs, French fries, root beer, burgers, sushi, mud soup, and so much more ~

One hour later. “Goosh, I’m full.” “Me too.” Nighty and Fann were opposite each other, with wrappers and glass spilled all over the place. “That was the best dinner, ever.” Fann said. “True to that ... I never want to eat another one bite again ...” Nighty burped and laid over.

“Say ... you want to take all this food home?” Fann asked. “How do we do that? Besides, this food will last us for ... 6 weeks I think?” Nighty said. “No ... 6 years ... I checked. Of the 70 million people in the planet, only 7 million eat here ... and that will last us 12 years more ...”

“You mean .... free food?” Night asked. “Yeah, you know ... we can practically have fun for the rest of our lifes. If we steal the food and replenish our secret stash. Then we can eat till the day we die.” Fann answered. “I dunno, man. That sounds horrible. I’m not into it.”

“I’m so totally into it!!” Nighty said, as he and Fann were riding Bloodbane the giant hornet carrying all their food supplies to Fann’s military labs close to King Xero’s palace. “Yeah, you can move in with me in the military labs. It’ll be cool. We can eat and do nothing all day.” “But, wait, didn’t you say these food will not rot for 2 years? How can it then –”

“Last for the next 10 more years? Simple. Just add more of the cinnamon and liquorice spice with pepper spice 2 years from now. Exactly. Otherwise, the food will go back to rotting.” Nighty smiled. “This is so cool!! I get to eat for free forever! You’re my best friend ever!!” “Yeah, I know! Plus we can go on whacky adventures everyday too!” “... don’t push it.”

For the next few days, it was reported that all the food in NovemberFest was stolen again and again by unknown thieves, so much so that they finally decided to add security cameras to monitor the place. All the food had been transported back to the depths of Fann’s secret military lair, and no one asked why the place had the stench of cinnamon and liquorice spice with pepper spice grow stronger every 2 years on and on. No one dared to know.

Nighty moved into the industrial complex, still liking to play and comment on video games, though Fann didn’t give up working on his crazy inventions, so their food supply was all good for the next years like – forever. The old condo unit back in Gouha State was sold to someone else, and that someone else happened to be Aerith and Sorrum in different disguises. Again. Seriously, why do they do that so much? Above a year after NovemberFest ...

“Say Nighty, you like marbles don’t you?” “Yeah sure. Waizat you ask?” He answered. “There’s a shiny marble convention in the faraway State of Majehmadland. We can go and get them for Silver’s upcoming birthday.” Fann raised his eyebrows repeatedly. “Yeah ... sure I’m game. Why not?” The duo walked out of Nighty’s room, located nicely in the middle of a giant hangar full of crazy weapons and animals that King Xero liked to keep for himself.

Over the course of years, at least once a year, Fann will unfailingly drag Nighty into a crazy adventure under a seemingly-normal purpose – a holiday, a freebee, hobby convention – and they had the adventures with the same people mentioned in this story again, well, and those of the dead too – like Noah, Hagh Zac, Majeh and Faily, because Fann resurrected them for the sheer fun of it. But one thing’s for sure – a big pile of food will wait for them when they come home – all because Nighty and Fann journeyed to NovemberFest.

THE END.

[Nightmare]

Jeez. XD That was pretty crazy!

Poor Captain Awesome. And poor Ed. ;-;

And I always knew Fusion and Swim were partners in evil!

Too much to comment on. XD It was pretty silly. Glad to finally see the conclusion of this crazy adventure! Good job, you definitely got the zaniness covered.

[Professor Fann]

It was brain-draining but it was definitely worth it. I'm glad I managed to end it real quick.

Thanks very much for your compliment, and I certainly hope you enjoyed it (despite the two year long absence of the story)!
