Part 40: Unrelaxing vacation

-~ meanwhile in texas ~-
AD: (He pulled out a chair, setting it on the sand)
AW: (setting up her chair) once again, I cant thank you enough! I really need this break....
AD: Well, you gotta thank Sardi for threatenin- I mean ASKING your boss for this break.
AW: Sardi pulled this together????
AD: Sure did!
AW: I can't believe she had the uh, how do I put this nicely, I didn't think she had the intelligence to plan something this extreme!
AD: It was pretty impressive of her.
AW: Have you heard much from her??
she called me once with some strange questions but otherwise not a peep! I thought she'd be calling every other minute
AD: What strange questions?
AW: oh just dating advice...
AD: Excusemewhat?
AW: yeah she was talking about a walk in the park and not wanting to mess it up...
AD: Who is she dating?!?
AW: Well Dave of course!
AD: That Nasaball? Good for her! I always knew she'd get a boyfriend.
AW: Well she never called back if it went well or not...
AD: Should we ask?
AW: I want to know if you want to know....
AD: Of course I want to know! This is very important to her, this first date thing or whatever.
AW: Okay i'll call her (picks up her phone and dials the house phone)
SR: (notices the phone ringing and picks it up) hello! Sardi speaking!
AD: Put her on speaker!
AW: Okay! (Clicks speaker mode) Sooooo... sardi... how did it go....
AD: (Intently listening)
SR: IT WENT FABULOUSLY! He said he loved me back!!!! :3
AD: That's great news, Sardi!!!
SR: I KNOW RIGHT!!!
but we aren't like officially boyfriend and girlfriend....
AD: I'm not much of a dating expert, but try asking him? I'm sure he'd say yes.
SR: UH uh uh uh nooOOOOoooo I can't....  I dont have the nerves to....
AD: You can do it Sardi! We believe in you
AW: yeah!! You can do it!
SR: okay.... ill try.....
cya later... ( hangs up)
AD: I hope everything goes well for her!
AW: I think it will, it about time life gives her a good hand
AD: For sure!
She's had a rough upbringing, after all.
AW: Do you know much about her before you two met?
AD: She didn't tell all the details, but basically because of her eel mouth, her parents hated her and sent her away to America.
AW: How sad.... well it's good she found people who like her no matter what she looks like!
AD: Let's just hope Dave feels the same way! He seems like a nice guy, after all.
AW: yeah,... I don't know if she would ever fully recover if he broke her heart....
AD: Yeeesh, probably not..
...What if he says no??
Hon. What if he says no.
What next? Who knows how she'll be affected!
AW: I'm sure she will be okay for a little bit before we get home....
AD: What if she isn't??
AW: Oh shoot.....
AD: Arrgghhh... I think I'm overreacting about this..
AW: I think so, just calm down... we're on vacation! At the beach! It's time to relax!
AD: ..Yyeah! Relax.. I can relax. Definitely.
AW: I think I remember why we don't vacation now....
AD: I just want her to be okay...
AW: (grabs his hand) she's an adult, she can handle this... trust me. you've got to let her go through these things, she's gotta learn one day
AD: (Sighing) You're right, hon....

NB001: 003! Is the unit ready?
NB003: all systems functional sir!
NB001: Good. We're going to retrieve unit 1025 from this... household.
NB003: Question Sir, what is a household?
NB001: ...Oh goodness. It's- it's a large, or small, building where a selected amount of people live.
Now get ready to break in.
NB003: Ready Sir!
NB001: (He scales up the building, spotting Dave in the window)
DV: (Oblivious to those outside)
NB003: do we really need to do this... he seems happy...
NB001: Of course we need to. Remember who is in charge, 003.
Now hand me the crowbar.
NB003: Sorry sir!
(Gives him a crowbar)
NB001: (He breaks the window, Dave jumping up at the sudden loud noise)
DV: Gah! Who-
...Oh no..
NB001: (He hops into the building, crowbar in one hand)
SR: (still passed out in the kitchen)
NB003: your comin' with us 1025!
DV: (He backs up in fear, on the verge of tears)
NB001: 003! Tranquilizer darts.
NB003: (fires tranquilizer gun at him)
DV: (He falls face first onto the floor.)
NB003: mission successful sir?
NB001: (Picking up Dave) Mission successful.
NB003: back to HQ for re-education
NB001: Affirmative. Help me carry him down.
NB003: (picks him up) Gruah... what has this one been eating... it is much heavier than most other nasaballs...
NB001: Eugh. A new diet is definitely needed.
NB003: back to fortified mush basic for this fatty, belugh that's the worst kind of fortified mush...
NB001: (They manage to climb down with Dave in hand)
SR: (passed out on the floor but begins to wake up with the chatter of the two nasaballs)
(sees a blurry white blob moving away from her) daaaveee... where ya going....
NB001: Move! Move! It's awoken!
NB003: quite sir!! (Rushes out, nearly dropping dave)
DV: (his hat falls onto the floor)
SR: (still sleepy)  hold on...  thats not dave.... (falls back asleep, her head smacking down onto the floor)
NB001: (He fumbles with the car keys) Throw him into the back or something, we need to get out of here.
NB003: (struggles to lift dave into the back but eventually lifts him into the back)
NB001: (He starts the car) Get in, quick.
NB003: (hops in the front seat) Drive Drive Drive!!
-~They quickly flee from the scene, leaving puffs of smoke~-
SR: (still out on the ground)
AS: (Opening the door to his room, confused)
(He goes down the stairs, then begins shaking Sardi awake)
Sr: huh... they got him I think...
AS: Huh? What happened?
SR:(looks around the room and sees dave's hat)
(Stumbles over to the hat) nonononononononono
(very angrily) THEY TOOK DAVE!!
AS: Calm down. Who took Dave?
SR: The Nasaballs did!! They took him back!! Tbh I thought they would just replace him...
i saw two all white balls with blue and they where carrying dave away.... (begins crying)
AS: Ssshhh. Maybe check upstairs if they left anything behind?
SR: (holding back tears as hard as she can, its not working well) okay ill check...
(Heads upstairs and find the crowbar)
(Walks back downstairs)
I found this...
AS: (He grabs the crowbar) This is good enough. I'll check for prints. You.. you do whatever. (he heads back upstairs)
SR: (breaks down and cries right where she was standing)
AS: (He quickly gets to work in his room, scanning the crowbar for any idea of what or who took Dave)
SR: (still crying) the one time I find someone who loves me as much as I love him, he gets kidnapped....
AS: (Heading back down with the results, only to see Sardi bawling on the floor)
SR: (rolls over to her back so she can see him) find anything..?
AS: I've identified them. You were correct.
(Somehow.)
SR: (instantly snaps out of it) WELL WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?? We gotta get to nasa to save him!!!!
AS: Yeesh-
Whatever. Let's go.
(He grabs Dave's hat, waiting for Sardi's next move)
SR: (picks up astroson and begin running towards Nasa HQ)
