Never have I ever thought that I would be driving a high jacked car with a Boo in the passenger's seat while fleeing my home. Yet, here I am. Boocifer is silently floating just above the seat as I drove the car, trying my best at keeping my back away from the the seat. Snare was curled up on my shoulder, basking in the moonless night. If I didn't know any better, I'd say he was sleeping.
Boocifer and I were able to escape from the prison without too much trouble. We were lucky enough to run into a few of my allies and they were able to get us out of there. Boocifer was reluctant in following them but I was able to convince him with the promise of getting out of there as soon as possible.
Now here we are, in a stolen car, on our way out of my home country. Boocifer was watching the wheat fields outside his window. He occasionally glances my way with a curious look in his eyes. When I turn to ask him what's on his mind, he just turns right back to the fields.
"Hey, Boocifer?" He turns to me.
"What is it?"
"Do you remember what you said about my people not being able to bend multiple elements anymore?" I ask.
"Yes, I assume you want to know why I said that?" I nod. "Well, it's hard to tell with us Boos but, I am actually really old. Centuries old in fact. I've seen many things, that includes your country's revolution 100 years ago. I just want to know before I go on, what do you know about that revolution?"
"All anyone is ever taught about The Revolution are, what I assume, all lies. We were taught that a very unfair king ruled us all those years ago, he apparently taxed everyone more and more each month. He held parties with no end and he didn't care about his people." I sigh. "Then the Larsen's started rallying the people. We were taught that they alone are our saviors and they alone could end the previous royal family's reign of terror. And we believed it for a long time. We were told that the Larsen's destroyed the royal blood line, no survivors."
Boocifer waited for a minute and then "That's it?"
"Yeah, pretty pathetic, huh?" I laugh. "We're told that we won a legendary war and we don't even know what happened." I feel Snare adjust his position on my shoulder. "So, what about the Revolution is important to our bending?"
"First off, you're right in thinking that you were taught lies. The King that ruled you before was, in fact, very fair and kind to his people. Now, he did make some mistakes but he was human. Every human makes mistakes, it is simply human nature. Now, every Elemental was, or is, able to bend all the elements." Boocifer paused. "I was even able to work with quite a few of your people back in the day."
"Wait, hold on. Elementals and Boos worked together?" I asked in shock.
"Yes. One of the reasons that Boodini and I left home was to see what happened. Why your people stopped interacting with us. As you can see, our excursion didn't end well. We were trapped in that cell for, I believe, years." I simply nod, not knowing what to say. "Our trip wasn't in vain though. We... I can warn the King that it is simply to dangerous to let any of the Boos anywhere near Elemiras."
"Sorry, but now I have two questions..."
"Go on." He replies.
"Okay, so, did King Boo ask you and Boodini to see what was happening here or did you go on your own?"
"At first it was just going to be Boodini and myself. Then the King caught us on our way out of Evershade Valley. He understood that we were worried, for we had made some friends in Elemiras, and bade us farewell and a safe journey. He wanted us to report back to see if it is still safe for Boos to return. Now, your second question?"
