"Where's my money Synic," asks the man thats threatining me.
"I'll have the money in a few days." I say. "Did you hear? That famous general is heading to Scariya. I must get there so I may get you some money. Is that finem man?" The man stops to think about it.
"Fine Synic I'll wait but you have to get me the money in two days you got it?"
"Got it man!" He lets me go. I run out of the alley. I run to the docks where my ship is. I see Westerio, "Yo Westerio what's up."
Westerio looks at me then realizes I'm hurt. "Are you okay Synic?"
"I'm fine," I say. "We got to go to Scariya," I say shyly.
Westerio gets mad, "What do you mean? You know we are almost out of gas!"
"I know that stupid but on Scariya is where that famous general is. He has the money we'll need. We can fill up and leave it for someone else to pay. Come on Westerio, you know what will happen to me if I don't get his money!"
Westerio sighs, "Fine. But I'll pay for our gas this time." I bow my head in respect.
"Thank-you Westerio. You’re a bud."
"I know," Westerio says sharply. We fill up. After we leave for Scariya.
When we get there, there's a parade for the famous general. Westerio and I smirk at each other and follow the general to the hotel they were staying at. We climb up the fire escapes to spy on the general to see what he was going to do while on Scariya. We see another person with the general..... it's the colonel. What a surprise I thought they would want a separate room. The colonel raises his hands to take off his helmet. The colonel unlatches his helmet and takes it off. His hair reaches the floor. Wait....... IT'S A GIRL!! I can't believe it! The general is traveling with a women. The general starts to walk over to the window then he stops when I see the colonel is trying to talk to him.
The general goes back to the colonel to speak with her. The general looks at the window and a crack suddenly appeared. The general knew someone was there. But we didn't move to give away our position. We look in and we see the general and the colonel fighting. We never saw two commanding officers yell at each other like that. They must be secret lovers or something. The colonel looks mad for a second then her face turns into a sad one. She picks up her helmet and puts it back on. She latches it and they walk out of the door. Westerio and I look at each other. That was a scary situation.
We hurry and get off the fire escape. We tried to follow them but by the time we got down they we already gone. So we couldn't follow them anymore. Why was the general on Scariya. Westerio and I turn the corner and see a poster. It reads, 'Come to the Ball for the Famous General! It's free and anyone can come!'
Very interesting. I call Westerio over to let him see what I discovered. Westerio finds it interesting also. We go to a tuxedo store. We buy cheap tuxedos and fix them up. By the time we were finished it was almost time for the ball. We hurry over so we may get a good seat. At balls the king or queen always talks and we want to see what the king or queen will say about the general. We arrive and sit in our seats. It takes an hour to have the general and the colonel come. We see them sit down.
The king goes to the podium, "Thank you for coming here my citizens to help hold this ball in the universe general and his fiancé Dia."
The king points to them. I see the general hesitate to get up. The general walks over to the podium, "Yes it is true that me and Dia are getting married." The general hesitates, "She is beautiful and that's why I will contain her beauty till we are married." The general smiles.
When the general walks away from the podium we know it's time to dance. I stay seated to see that the king talked to the general. The king walks over to the colonel and put's out his hand. The colonel takes his hand and goes down to the dance floor. I must get to her. When the song switches I try to get to her. But I can't. It's to late the song is over.
I follow the king instead. I try to go up to talk to him but then he gets taken by some guys in black. I didn't want to make a scene so I don't do anything. Then the main man shouts, "Everyone down on the ground or the king dies."
We all get onto the ground. Then I see Westerio army crawl over to me. I look up at the podium and the general refuses to get down. Another man raises his gun. Out of the corner of my eye I see someone get up and run to the general I wonder who it is. The man starts to shoot. Westerio and I look over at the general and the person that ran to the general was the colonel. The man fires a lot of bullets. I get up and tackle the guy and Westerio does the same. The guards came and we look up there and her helmet cracked in half.
It fell to the floor and we all heard the general's words echo through the room, "Dia how could you? You disgrace me get out of my sight."
We all hear this little, "But general"
The colonel starts to run out and I shout, "It's not safe at night!" Westerio runs after her. I get interviewed about helping save the king from those thugs.
I went to my ship. Westerio returned around 10:20, "Westerio where were you?"
Westerio giggles, "I meet the colonel she's really nice," Westerio hiccups.
Westerio starts to collapse. I catch him and put him in his bed. I shake my head in disgrace. He shouldn't have gotten drunk so easily. I can't drink it's disgusting. I don't know how people can drink that crap?!
I walk down the hall to the bathroom to take a shower. I don't want to look bad for the ceremony tomorrow! I'm going to sign Westerio and I one of the security. After I take the shower I get our registration papers and head to the station where we sign up.
I take our stuff to the desk and ask, "I know my friend isn't here at the moment, but I want him and I to join the force to help protect the general and colonel." I salute him. The guy smirks and says, "Okay you better be here with your friend around 5:00 a.m. tomorrow. Got it!?"
"Yes, sir" I take our papers off the desk and turn around to walk away. I walk out the door and bolt it to my ship really happily. I'm going to ambush the famous general and torture him to my pleasure. Get his money, also. Pay that stupid guy back. I hate him!
