The boys headed into London, admiring the 1800's aesthetic and how different everything looked to current time. Buggy, coming from a sixteenth century like place, didn't fully understand what Jerma and the boys were laughing about at times but from his missions throughout time, was able to understand some of the strange things the boys were noticing.
"Do you have any ideas for what we should be looking out for?" Jerma asked
The boys all stopped walking to think.
"Hmm onion rings.." Evan said thinking
"Chopped onion, oil, and breading..." Joseph said thinking
As the boys thought, it seemed as though an invisible lightbulb appeared above Evan and Joseph's heads
"We've got to start checking some shops!" The boys said in unison
The gang started running through London looking for any stores selling food. They walked through a few stores asking the people in there what they make and seeing if anyone was looking towards any deep fried onion ideas. As the gang was walking through town to see more stores, Jerma looked up to the sky and noticed the sun started to set across London. He realized they have been walking around all day and had made no dent in finding the maker of onion rings. He started to feel really bad knowing that this was his task to accomplish and the gang had gotten nowhere with finding them. Jerma thought this would be a simple 7 hour task but as he saw the sun set over the horizon, he realized just how long this may take. Shop keepers started to close their doors and the street lamps started to be turned on all around London.
"Alright Jerma we're going to end the stream for today. Do you want to say anything to chat before we close it off?"
Jerma looked back to the cameras. "Oh yeah, thanks chat for being here today! I'll be live again tomorrow so stay tuned." Jerma and Buggy waved at the cameras as the screen changed to end of stream and then stream over. Evan and Joseph turned off all their equipment and took their headsets off.
"We're gonna try and find somewhere for us to sleep for the night. You two stay put"
Jerma and Buggy nodded and sat down on some barrels outside of a closed pub.
"I guess we had no luck today, huh?" Buggy said
"I really didn't know what I was getting myself into." Jerma said trying to laugh it off
"These kind of missions never take a day. Luckily we've checked quite a lot of stores today. Maybe we'll find the onion ring maker tomorrow"
"You think so?" Jerma asked
Buggy pulled out a flask from his jacket.
"Meh, maybe" Buggy took a swig from his flask closing his eyes as he did
"I never know how long these missions will take. Sometimes a day, sometimes a month. It doesn't matter. At the end of the day I get sent back home and get to carry on soaring the seas."
"Does Peabody ever let you hang out with people outside of missions?"
"Ha! Never. He's very protective about his organization and has a huge crew. In fact I never work with the same team again."
"Never!? What about Evan and Joseph?"
"Oh well they're a different case. They've been with Peabody for a very long time and have been to hell and back together, literally. Plus they're from the same timeline and have the same career so it keeps the public from suspecting anything" Buggy went for another swig of his drink but noticed it was empty. He stood up and walked towards the pubs door.
"What are you doing? They're closed."
"Nothings ever closed for a pirate" Buggy pulled out a bobby pin from his hair and twisted it through the pubs lock system. Buggy twisted the door knob and the door opened.
"Voila!"
"We shouldn't go in there Buggy it's closed"
"Oh relax no ones going to notice. Besides if it messes up the timeline, Peabody will just send another team to fix it up"
"I guess" Jerma followed Buggy into the pub. Buggy poured some drinks for them (Buggy keeping the bottle next to himself) and they sat down at the stools.
"I just wish Mr. Peabody left us with more information." Jerma said as he took a swig of his drink
"Ha don't we all. I never know what that dogs up to. With all the secrets he has"
"Was your first mission rough?" Jerma asked as Buggy was drinking. Buggy spit out his drink thinking back to his first mission.
"It was... interesting. I made a few mistakes and felt like I failed my team. They were all really nice and knew exactly what needed to be done and how. One of them in particular was the most sweet person I had ever met. She really helped us to succeed"
"But you never saw her again?" Jerma asked assuming he already knew the answer
Buggy breathed in and then raised his glass to Jerma as he took another shot.
Buggy finished his swig and rested his hand on his neck.
"I've found it easier to forget and move on. I'm truly thankful that I get these missions. Not everyone gets such an opportunity."
"How can you do that? I mean I learned that talking dogs and time machines exist just this morning. I mean this is crazy that were looking for who made onion rings for crying out loud. None of this is something I could just forget."
There was an awkward pause after Jerma spoke.
"How are you guys so okay with following a talking dogs orders. There not even orders it's some kind of riddle! He should give you more, it's not fair"
"Heh, try saying that to him"
"Maybe I will the next time we see him." Jerma crossed his arms.
"There you two are! What are you doing in here? You're going to get us in trouble. If Peabody find out-" Joseph was interrupted by Buggy
"And he won't. I haven't trashed the place or anything. We can just leave and I'm sure the shop keeper will just think they forgot to lock up, relax"
Evan and Joseph looked at each other with a nervous look but nodded
"We found a nearby barn we can sleep for the night. No one will notice us" Evan said
"Great! Let's get going it's passed my bedtime" Jerma said
Jerma walked out of the pub with Evan walking beside him showing the gang where the barn was. Buggy stayed behind with Joseph as he heard Joseph whispering to Buggy and looking angry. Once the gang made it to the barn, Jerma made his way up to the hayloft and found some comfy hay bells to rest on. The gang followed him up.
"See you guys tomorrow" Jerma said as he blew out their lantern.
"Night" Evan and Joseph said
"Good night Buggy" Jerma said giggling
"Night Jeremy, see you tomorrow" Buggy said kindly
Jerma slept very peacefully. As it started to become day, birds could be heard chirping and the sun slowly leaking through the wood of the barn. Whispers of a cool wind could be heard outside. Jerma was still trying to sleep when he started to hear the sounds of breathing very close to him and the smell of red bull and hair gel. Jerma slowly creaked his eyes open to notice a face only inches from his own standing directly above him smiling.
"RISE AND SHINE ELBERSTON!!!"
"Jerma fully woke up and noticed that standing before him was none other than his streaming friend Ludwig Ahgren."
"LUDWIG???"
