Excellent. Excellent. So Last we had on generation justice after a little DB left with his mom and areas into the great beyond taking kubo with him Some time passed it was it was sad everyone had remorse is Fiona came back to town And school kind of went on as normal there was some sort of event during one of the gym classes But you're hearing mixed reports of what what happened there So it was kind of a confusing hubbub of a situation and no one's really given the straight story But uh, so it was a pretty normal school. They got a lot of uh normal school stuff situated And so we are there in class and uncle slam announces to the class.

He says Okay, children in the next couple weeks. We're gonna have some uh universities and colleges coming in You know scowls and talent beyond your best behavior. Do your uncle proud, you know, uh apply to the ones you want Or don't I don't know. I can't tell you what to do with your future He gives you that speech and then uh everybody kind of uh, I was gonna say lines up, but that's really elementary school Everyone's online about the door But everyone goes to the gymnasium area where there's like a lot of uh booths set up by different Colleges and recruiters and stuff and it's basically today is kind of um, what do they call it when college just comes come scowl?

It's a college fair. I believe because I've been to one of these before Yes, basically that it's a college fair So all the kids can like look at the schools and pick up applications and get information and stuff And uh, everybody escorted to that so like the whole school is in this huge gymnasium bunch of booths bunch of colleges and trade schools and like people who are looking to hire like there's burger king. They're like, why go to college? Oh Tom will test university Yeah, all of you have gone there unless you decided to skip did anybody decide to skip the college yes chance will skip Okay, chance.

What are you doing instead of doing the college fair? Alex. I have work to do I'm sorry. I'm sorry for my ged.

It's okay. You're gonna test out. Okay. All right, so you guys study your ged I'm from the end of high school.

You're gonna go for your ged Yeah Schools I'm forgetting get my ged or you can just finish like the last two months Yeah, like we're graduating if you Whatever all right. So karae fiona and so fia are you guys going to the college fair? So fia's gonna go to every table and get as many pens if she can okay? I suppose i'm just gonna walk around trying to figure out what a person of my standards and talents can do Okay, yeah, karae.

What do you do? Did Luke go to the college fairs is only kind of for the powered kids That's everybody everybody is it's it's for everybody. There's there's powered schools or not power schools and um, so it's like it's a big mix of stuff Yes, he's probably gonna walk around with him and i'm not looking at any kind of powered university I'm only looking at the ones that are like kind of mundane. Are you holding hands?

Yeah, I was about to say holding hands right? Yes, yes, we are Progress so there's a couple of universities that that everyone is making kind of a big deal They seem like the the cocks of the walk so to speak that everybody's kind of giving the most attention to there is Cointonites university central diamond at preparary school and a heedril academy What's the difference? Heedril academy seems to be like the the big prestigious one for up-and-coming superheroes like a lot of superheroes that get like Contracts with cities or get on big teams that kind of come from this like prestigious school It's like they get like the big people to come and do like guest lectures and stuff like that And they're very selective quite in that university is more kind of a it's more of a local school like it's like a city or two away and It kind of lets in most people and it's a it's a mix of all kinds of students Yeah Central diamond prep is a preparatory school for girls to get into further colleges It's mostly female Yeah, our female after all yeah, so it's like it's a it's a prepper it's a prepper school. It is located in the england Okay, interesting very interesting.

Are you guys all together or are you split up here's a question? Right, but are those two with you guys? I don't know. I feel like I probably follow Sophia around and if I saw Fiona, I would keep her in my mind You don't know about Fiona last time I looked away you disappeared Okay, cool.

Okay. Oh, I'm gonna go if if I run into Gina, I'll ask you some questions But I'll just be walking around in school. Yeah, she's still visiting her family Gina has not been in school. You three and Luke are walking around together.

Yes, I guess I don't know how long that's gonna go because Sophia's gonna be like stopping and everything and talking to like every school But she's she's got her eyes on that big one that I already got the name of In a key troll. Thank you You guys actually are you guys approach the the booth for anhedral academy You know a little bit about the school the the dean is a Semae retired superhero from Japan. She's like the quintessential Japanese superhero And her name is celerity and she she kind of runs this school as well as protects Japan And there is a recruiter there who seems to have multiple powers because he's talking to a bunch of kids all at once There's like six or seven of them But the most lively conversation is one of this multiple power man's selves is talking to a student that you've seen around school a couple of times The kid in a white hoodie they seem to be super friendly with one another and Soon to be getting along like they're like they're kind of old friends and we're gonna cut over to that conversation And uh we have mark Good Yeah, surprise. Yeah, and give us a little rundown of what your character looks like at the moment.

Um, my character it looks like a Kind of okay looking Japanese slash New Zealand teenage boy Who is in a white hoodie white jeans white tennis shoes And uh, he's has a white backpack on Does it does it ever get hard to clean? Yeah, it does. He uses a lot of bleach Is it like character's closet where everything is just the same as all white? Uh, yeah, he has he's some offshades white.

He has eggshell Look, I just want to say that this is not a tie-dad Well, first what's your character's name at the moment? And my character is named Gavin Green Okay, uh, so Gavin you're sitting there and you're talking with somebody that you knew from from kind of back in the day He's a few years older than you so he's kind of a teacher's aide as well as a student and a recruiter for Adhedral academy and his name is manifold Um, and he is he's sitting there chatting with you. You know for a long time He's also a multiply himself and is talking to some other students giving them pens and brochures and such and he's like so How's it been going here in a river? That's been going pretty good.

Uh besides there's some sort of troubling here that I'm trying to check down besides that It's that's a nice place. I mean you're already getting mixed up in it, dude You know when I was in high school I had like no eyes on the hero business And I was super lucky to get in this academy and it really turned my stuff around I'm telling you if you're really interested in the hero business. This is the way to go I didn't I didn't really want to get in the hero business I'm fine with you know beating up on monsters and things like that But it's kind of where my life is taking me at the moment. I guess well I'm here's the thing man.

We got a pretty exclusive list But I've got I've got the ear of the dean and if you really want in brother you let me know and I will push some papers across the desk man because I would love to go to class with you again We haven't hung out in a very long time. We haven't and um, yeah, I'll think about it But right now uh I got some stuff in my plate, but I'll keep it in mind All right, and you know in the girls carry Fiona and so you guys approach as you as you see this part of the conversation in the Manfolds and if you see anybody here with some talent, let me know there's only so much information I can get from shaking hands, you know Yeah, sure um I will give a head nod over towards the that group that just came up Oh, I'll say I'm gonna say I've out of everyone here I'll go over doing a kind of whisper and be like I've at least seen those ones in action and at least two of them the the the shadow the girl with no arm and the And the girl who has that like giant smile on her face where else she's walking her's the booth You know leaves Approach the you guys all approach the booth. I know this Yeah, you do notice the guy I'm just gonna turn very slowly and make pointable eye contact because I did try to chase you down about a month ago Why are you staring at that guy? I think I know him.

Do you want me to go like bring him over? No? Okay, that girl's gonna be a weird looking like she's with a boyfriend so I don't know like Are they into that do you think? I don't know you're gonna ask she just stops and she just like turns the mouths.

I know you Did she just mouth I want you She's being real weird the college fair is not a place for this I'm going to set the table like it's probably some college student there like oh yeah, I'm like here I like your pen. I'm gonna go over to the guy gonna be like hi. You know, no you don't know sprocket How do you do? Uh he he splits into multiples and continues his conversation with Gavin green as well as hands you append in a brochure and he's like oh my name is Manfold this is a real cat I mean he starts opening the pamphlet pointing out buildings and stuff I was actually talking to Kevin, but okay.

Oh, well, okay. Well, anyway, uh, manfold as you're approaching he splits anyway to give you a pen He's just doing the recruiter thing where he is I'm doing you can approach grab Gavin as well. I'm doing good. How are you?

I'm well You interested in this account of school academy not really but my mom is kind of pressuring me into going here This is gonna seem weird, but apparently like a month ago. There's a skeleton attack at the school. Were you there for that? Yeah, I was Okay, because my other friend over there says she notices you and I think she might want to talk to you about that or something I don't know.

This is awkward. I'll give you that they usually do all the talking really I don't know especially the one who's like currently obsessing over the pens I'm like Yes, tell your friend that she wants to talk to me about it. I'm here you can approach me I have no problem with talking with people. I'm gonna look back and say he's cool with talking I'm now gonna look at this.

I'm now gonna talk to this guy who just is still talking to me I got recruiting stuff and see if they'll take demigods Oh, do you believe it you believe that demigod bullshit you didn't realize gods don't exist right? I'm gonna say it like yeah They're not gods. They're just medists who seem to think that they're better than everybody else who try to put themselves above everyone up in his face Listen here. Yeah, little shit.

Hey, Karen. Hey, if anyone should be the most offended. It should be me I know DB you liked him a lot, but no Sad guy that they're bringing out that DB guys who have seen other news. He's not a god He's just some blue mutant freak who seems to think that he's better than us and oh he can look at what I know a thousand other people who can heal I've seen heroes out there that what makes him a god over them.

I'm putting him against the wall. Okay. Well roll attack That is a plus four which is what do I roll against for defense on you roll a fight? Thank you much.

I got a plus five on my fight too. I don't I don't want to do I'm just trying to slip away from her right as you do that Kerry Manifold multiplies like six or seven times and he's like pulling you out of the arena I'm like getting in between them and I'm like just Viciously pointing at him. You don't know shit about DB. You don't talk about DB.

Hey DB's a great hero He's just not a god because gods don't exist. I understand or respect your views, but Gods do exist or the place I've stayed after the past 16 years of my life have just been some random parallel dimension You've stayed at a place and there are different places in this world We live in a world where there are tons of different universes within our own that we can get to so yeah You could have been a parallel universe plus what proves to me or proves to you that you guys are gods over anybody else who has powers True. I mean that's your opinion. I guess yeah, and it's the right opinion, but oh, okay I don't know if it's the right opinion, but it's your opinion.

You're right look all I know is I've been raised by Various gods. I've met various gods. I've been the places that you would not believe Oh, I've been places you have not believed you know what I thought a dragon once I also once fought a giant monster that was made out of makeup. So seeing gods isn't that really amazing because they're not gods They're just met us.

Okay, that's great. Who is all staying at this booth? Kerry has been escorted out by a number of I'm gonna go back over and I'm gonna be like hey, what are your religious views on gods? Were you saying this too?

I don't know manifold salarity Salarity salarity is not there. Oh, she's just the oh she's a famous. I'm gonna talk through a beautiful and be like do you accept them? You gods?

We don't really discriminate on power sets or even people that don't have powers. It's just basically we're a school that Gears people towards the the heroing lifestyle. We've trained a number of people that don't have powers at all. I mean So we don't really discriminate whatever you can do whatever you can't do we're here to find a niche for you and Hook you up give you connections teach you the ins and outs of the business So how hard would it be to get into the hearing business without like set a connection from a university?

Well, here's the thing you You can you can get into the hero business by going out on the street in punch and a robber But we we do proper training. We offer licensing paths. We can do internships with larger teams All that kind of thing. So it's it's basically can you start your own business or should you go to business school?

I see what if you've already interned with some heroes right? Well, I mean that's up to you We're just we're here for the people that might not be able to do that on their own We do all sorts of things. So if you can go strike out on your own more power to you We're just a resource here to rear the best heroes we can and we go with license we licensing we teach law We hook up with policing units so that we can all be on the same team because a lot of times row heroes Sometimes don't abide by the law. Sometimes they Sometimes they don't even know the law.

So we're here to you know bridge that gap They don't have a mascot really They're more focused on academics and they don't really participate in sports stuff. So sport kids sports kids not playing Unless he really wants to stick to his dad Yeah, you want to be rebellious? It's basically you go around and ask questions and hear about their like various programs and everything like oh, how's your so-and-so program? Do you have a job for your There's too many people.

Oh, yeah You just ask like what kind of programs they have and what they can do for you and stuff like that And then you then you can apply later. Um, they give you information brochures and talk about their facilities Tell them a little bit about yourself too. Yeah, yeah, like Because like the recruiters keep notes and then like when people apply they're like, oh, yeah, I met this kid at the john fair and They impressed me with this or that. Okay.

Yeah, he's probably showing off all our answers What's colonel is what Samson? Questions though too because you said like place like working us over here just chance have a booth here for his place Chance do you have a booth at the at the college career fair? Chance would probably go up to individuals that he is observed personally to see if he could recruit them he wouldn't have a booth there I thought it'd be funny to see chance sitting there handing out pens brochures Here you go. So here's the color you need Yeah, so we're gonna talk about chance.

We're gonna cut over to chance chance you have skipped the college and job fair What are you up to? I'm glad you asked i'm actually looking for wesley Wesley has not been in school for a couple of weeks. Um, and you know that he's been hanging out with a jina You know where jina lives. So you know that he's probably there.

Um, so fiend notice. Yes. How is the job fair or sorry the uh school college fair like all day? Yes, it's yeah, he then he will totally leave school until he'll head over to jina's.

Okay, you head over to jina's I just put you put jina's in my goo map You goo goo goo goo goo goo goo goo map You make it to jina's uh, do I see the wesley? Um you well he's not outside You see the outside of the house. I will go up to the door and i'll bring the door bell Uh a little panel opens the door and a robotic eye comes out. Just and hear voice unspeakers says hello.

He's like, yeah, okay, do i see what i always look for you? I ask him what he wants and she comes back She's like, um, what do you need him for? Oh, well, hey, uh, you know, I know that the uh the the career fair slash school fair is like going on in school But you know, I uh, I already kind of got my my ducks in a row so to speak for like the post high school thing I was wondering uh if uh if wesley had any plans for what he's thinking about doing after school Not like after school like the school day like I mean, i've three graduates. Did you want to come in and talk?

Is that weird asking? Oh, yeah, it'd be great. Yeah, it's a little better face to face I mean, it's cool robotic eye though. That's cool.

I like that The robotic eye comes back into the door and on the sides of the door two little things come out They scan you they go up and down and then they go back into the door opens Inside of the house you see that most things are taken apart There's like a refrigerator and an oven but like everything else is the house is pretty much gutted But filled with like little devices inventions gizmos robot suits drones Like the whole house is just filled to the brim with like all different sorts of stuff i like Yeah, pretty much um and you hear there's a there's a flight of stairs right out right inside of the door And it goes downstairs and you hear down there are some welding sounds I will go downstairs. All right, you go downstairs. The basement is pretty much the same It's got it down to basically the the studs and support beams And there's just a bunch of gadgets and shit down there and on one side of the massive basement is jina She's putting together like three suits that look identical like robots suits and then on the other side You see Wesley he's working on some things as well. Oh, hey guys, you know, hi chance.

I yeah I didn't even know you guys for any minute school today. I was uh, you know, I saw that they were doing a career fair I must say, you know kind of forgot about that He's kind of a dismissive wave and says you have the kids over there and she keeps working Uh, he'll actually take his time walking over to vikki or to wesley and he'll you know take a look at everything That's uh around in the workshop, you know, look at the the equipment look at the the gizmo's and gadgets that are around and he'll make his way over to wesley All right, wesley has like a like three desks all kind of lined up together There's a bunch of piles of shit on them. It looks like he's working on one like a miniature prototype version of something You can't really tell what it is. Um, but when you walk up to him he spins around his chair He's got those glasses.

I have like the um little magnifying glasses that flip down and he flips them all up and he's oh What's up, jans? What do you need? Hey buddy, you know, um, I I've been thinking for a while and you know, uh, when I first got to Ruby River Hi, I I really had an attachment with you as a friend and um, you know, I've seen you over the past year Just really mature and you know, get get I've seen what you're able to do and it's great and um, uh, I don't know how much you know about what I do in my off time, but you know, I I do I do run a small business and uh, After high school, you know, I'm making that sort of my full time, you know, 18 hours a day Kind of thing and uh, I was wondering if you didn't have plans for a post high school experience if you were looking for a full-time job Well, I didn't know what you did until jina told me Uh, jina, do you know what I do? It's like, yeah, when I came back, I hacked into all the monitoring systems around the city.

I went keeping everything under surveillance Okay, well, I mean, that's that's also very impressive and as is everything else here. I don't get me wrong I mean, I didn't really know much about you until uh, I mean, I heard a little bit from Fiona But like coming here and seeing everything that's going on. This is like really impressive Yeah, it's uh, it's a project. Uh, she wrote me into an asking that for me to help and uh, it's been keeping my time pretty busy I've I've you know, you talk about after school.

I think I'm kind of just definitely school. Honestly. No, I mean, well, I mean I I have a I have a bed to a class that has told me something I haven't already knowed in like a year and a half I'm just kind of wasting my money. That's that's good.

Uh, well, I I will say that uh, I will be very happy to write you Really both of you a reference if you're uh, if you're looking for work I mean, I I work out some some salaries and I cover your expenses You have a workshop there if you want to take her outside of work in hours. I mean You know, um, let me give me the details of the project db. Uh, this is taking up a lot of my time helping gda But um, I'm not opposed to helping if you need something specific. Well, let me ask uh, I You know, sort of an off the record kind of thing.

What are you guys working on? Uh, you'd have to go ask gda about that I'm uh, I mean, I don't want to cry too much, but if it's something that that we could use I just realized. Yes, of course. Yes, of course.

Yes. And uh, that disclosure. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I mean I have no problem contracting some work out and if it's if it's something that that the business would be interested And you know, we'd always throw some money behind it, you know, keep you guys paid for what you're working on Yeah, you might want to go talk to jina about that.

That's uh, well, uh, you know, I do you want my card You know, I know you have my phone number, but I'm gonna go. I'm gonna walk over and talk to jina, but you know, it's been a good talk I'll see. Yeah, it's such a fight Yeah, don't problem. I had to walk over to jina All right, uh, jina is uh, like assembling these um mechanical men's and you you walk over there It's like a chance Hey jina, um, yeah, I was just telling west.

I don't know if you heard I know you've been welding and uh, it's you know, I got my hearing protection on uh, but uh, so uh I I'm curious as as both a businessman and as a as a classmate and just a general kind of you know, just a human being What are you guys working on? Well, did you want to tell you what happens? Yeah, you know, it doesn't really like open up about things that she kind of keeps to herself mostly unless it involves like Being mad at somebody Do you know what happened to Bethany? Do I know what happened to Bethany?

What if you want to have said anything about that? She would have told you guys what happened except, um, the uh, bearish part, you know, he'll he'll put on it The serious face and he'll say you know jina what when I do in my off time Or outside of school I should say is really i'm trying to prevent stuff like that from happening again B2 and she she kind of like lifts up her arm and there's like a like a like a skin type Screen on her forearm and she can type some stuff into it and a bunch of drones in the room kind of like Float up and they kind of move with her movements and she walks over to a map she has played across the table She's like, yeah, i'm uh, i'm preventing all of it from happening again She starts she takes out the pen and she starts drawing on the map Gina, what if I told you that my company would be willing to Fund your project as much as you need give you the facilities you need Hey you and and Wesley both for your work like a team up She looks over to us. She's like, well, what's the range on the x74s and he's like about quarter mile She's like can we get away with two and sector a or should we have three and he's like i'm put four to be safe But uh, I'd be we're running low at a little bit of resources So yeah, i'm just chance to offering some sort of uh funding here and I think I think maybe we should go with four Oh, okay, she looks over at you. She's like what kind of funding are you offering?

Well, uh outside of paying you full time for your work, uh, especially skills, uh, you know how to work your equipment We can probably press you through the certifications pretty quickly and if there's any equipment you don't have or if the facilities need to expand a little bit I'll say uh, here's the thing there's a difference between working for you and you funding my project Absolutely, but if we have the same things on control of my project Oh, no, I I absolutely understand that the question is Can I can I look at the map? How much does it cover like what area? Um, it's it's all of ruby river and kind of the surrounding suburbs What if I told you that this project shouldn't be just ruby river? What if it needs to be Outside of there?

There's only so much I can monitor right, but I have the resources and I have the people to expand Tell you what you helped me get this city lockdown And then we can talk about expansion. They'll extend his his hand for shake She shakes us all right You got it What do you mean? She starts working out details. She needs basically a bunch of uh tech equipment and shit Like raw resources stuff like that.

Okay. Back to the job fair college fair I'm gonna say to Gina to be like you want me to like get you anything?

No, just doing normal day to day stuff right now. I'm not really trying to do anything at the moment Okay, although.

Okay. I say one thing. Sure. Um, one point I go to get a towel and all of a sudden uh, these random Minions that look like tree people get teleported down and I take them all out before any kid or anything can notice I really want them to be regular minions They are puddies when you punch when you punch them.

They fall down to go what the vanish? Oh, yeah, they break up into splinters Oh, they're not the ones where you have to like hit them together and there has when the two of them hit then they disintegrate Yep, and they have like uh, they have a queue that's on their chest that you gotta punch Yeah, yeah, but then a group heat up comes out of nowhere and went Chris 50 feet big or something Yeah, so I so um, okay, we will cut back over to chance. She answered. What are you up to?

I went into work. Yeah plans. I got shit to do now. You're at work.

Go in. I stop by Lee Todd's desk. I say, uh, hey, Lee Todd. It's me.

Chant. Hi. Hi. Uh, I know who you are I know it's not right.

It's me lucky. Huh because I say I'm lucky here because I'm whatever anyway, hey, so uh Project idea think about it give me a second imagine you could surveil an entire city And provide point defense throughout Prevent crime as it's happening with just you know a thought. Mm-hmm. Does that sound great?

Uh, I suppose Are you suggesting something beyond what we're already working on? Yeah, really? I am I'm saying that I found somebody who's already doing this and I think that that is that is something that we need to get our Our hands around and try and you know, I'm thinking franchising. Do you think the the the board of investors would be okay with this Action?

I bet you I can sell it. You can go to shop Anyway, so um So there's a couple of individuals at the school. Well, they're not really at the school anymore They kind of decided they want to drop out I guess and they're kind of working on this project already Looks like it's pretty far along and uh, I think that they have the go to itiveness that we need in this company to really Push us over the inch Uh, whatever edge that is. I don't know what it's wrong right now.

Lee Todd kind of treasure headens like so. What's the what's the details of this? Well, I'm not gonna say that what they've done is uh, coosured by a legal sense But they have hacked into security feeds throughout the city of Ruby River including probably in here hypothetically speaking Uh, and uh, they have uh drones that they can remote control that will help prevent crime You know the whole defending the innocent thing and you know, I'm thinking you know, we can sell that to other cities and maybe they would be interested in you know Okay, um The thing is here's the thing. I know some of the investors pretty well.

I've worked with a couple of them before That's why they recommended me for this position and I would yeah, it was really weird with that. I didn't hire you You just kind of work here one day. Yeah, I would I would say Knowing that the way they think um, they might not be exactly on board because they thought you Like them were the mindset that we should give the people the ability to police themselves What you're talking about now is giving the authority to police the people to someone who thinks they know better See, I thought the whole developing weapons thing and giving them to everybody and even into playing field was uh Like a libertarian thing, you know, everybody will have the ability to police themselves But what you're talking about is authoritarian that seems pretty counter to a lot of the uh, investors ideas Well, let me tell you it's kind of a little bit of both isn't it though? Because we still give the people what they need but we as I hate to admit it because when I say it out loud It makes me feel like a failure.

We're kind of behind the power curve right now We want to be doing more but we find that we're in a little bit of a pickle in that things aren't moving as quickly as we thought they would You can try to sell it, but I'm just warning you now the whole uh authoritarian vibe is gonna is gonna put some of the investors off I'll uh, I'll put together a little little point paper on it. We'll see what we can come up with yeah if you can reconcile those two ideals You try this country's been trying for a couple hundred years. All right. All right.

All right brand new idea one time a year for a night You know what? That's a perfect compromise I think we can make three movies out of this idea Anyway, dude for thought I think we can give them a little bit of a a little bit of a a little bit of a prod You know kind of help them finish off their work, you know, maybe we sweet We kind of make ruby river the test market for this since we've already kind of moved our projects outside of the city We can give it a shot also. I needed to talk to you about something um, we've been trying to find new ways of getting the uh The supplies we need and we've been running into a lot of issues Yeah, um, we tried some race car gambit and it did not work Apparently not everybody in the the racing scene was cool with what we were doing Can you tell me why again? We can't make our own chat when we the people in amberville seem to have the Ability to do it.

They're not really sharing the recipe Yeah, I mean if you want to go negotiate with idolon you can but uh, well the problem with that Is we're not the best of friends. I stole some sort of radiation ring from her and right there. We have a transector farm also, um after novacane's setup was Taken down. She set up again and it was robbed So wait for her quick around it.

She doesn't know So we came in and took everything so she lost a lot of equipment So somebody out there has um the equipment. I mean we can get new equipment. It's not a big deal But um, she's been having a lot of setbacks lately. Oh, yeah, you know, I'm really thinking we need to Start turning around and selling some stuff because uh this cannot be good for business Well, I mean we've been selling the the strength pills those are pretty good Yeah, we've been kind of moving in the time of that and if we're not getting the channel And then we don't have more strength pills, so then we need to get more channeling so we can sell and make more profit That's uh, that's business bro Let me tell you my man.

You're right my dude Yeah, um, but we do have the guns that we have yeah, the laser webs the laser pistols that stuff that moves pretty good Oh, how's that frog rat thing coming tell you what we do have some advancement on that we have a large a database of Animals from all across history time and currently we're really collecting. We have a lot of information It's the the problem is stability. So um, we got frogs to rat so we got rats the frogs perfect stability between all of the other transfers Kind of iffy so when you say time and space, I mean like I'm let's let's pretend like I know that there's one animal in particular I would love to turn everything into because apparently it's delicious and that is the dodo Can we turn anything to a dodo yet? Yeah, so we're working on a ways.

We're working on ways. It's it's strange. It's Need it's just it's a nice to have it's just out of curiosity I mean like if we can make an entire population of a bird go extinct in like a month then you know, I think it's probably worth at least tasting Right. Yeah, so I'm not sure about the exact science behind it, but um, they're working on it.

They're working on DNA replicators and such and It's it's coming along. It's just the machine has gotten really big because of all the data it needs so to store all of that information digitally It's difficult. Just yeah, we're working on it. It's coming along.

Let me tell you this has been a rollercoaster for conversation a lot of ups a lot of downs More downs than ups. I'm feeling really helpful, but I'm still thinking we're gonna give a little bit of startup funding for these these individuals We're gonna be working on River. I tell you we need it as a test case Do you want me to divert funds to them now without consulting? Yes, and chance.

We'll take out one of his business cars And he's gonna write on the back. We're probably being watched right now too lady Todd. Yeah, okay. So do you want me to do it?

Yes or no? Yes, I'll write on a second this card. Yes All right, you like okay loud loud and clearish Are you doing anything else at the office? Where are we into like the day?

It's it's afternoon. Yeah, I'm gonna go grab a bite to eat I'm gonna use a blush. Okay. All right.

So back to the school. I carry Sophie Fiona if you want to decide to run away So Fiona's heading to the new shop. I guess because she's like I need to choose. All right, so Kerry and Sophia You guys are in school.

What are you doing? Well first if he's gonna tell Kerry all about the party I don't know if I can go back to the school. It's for a little while and there's gonna be that band that's so cool And I want to go and I don't know Kerry's like look kind of just like looking back at the gym and then looking at the I might know um it all kind of depends Am I still living with you at this point? Yeah, so you have to deal with my mom that like you can help you through the night Do you think your mom would like let you go if I promised to like make sure you didn't get drunk?

Okay, well, I don't drink but she doesn't like that she can go through things like what if the cops show myself get drunk? But see we can just not tell my mom and just go out a little bit before it's like we could do that We could tell her we're going to go see a movie. Yeah We'll just have to see like how long they run and how long it didn't get back and be back You know if we were doing like a girls anything we could just say we're going to the mall for a few hours And then we're gonna go see movies long by us like what five six hours maybe? Yeah Anyway, hey, are we gonna bring Luke with us?

Do you think Luke's gonna want to go? I'll ask him. I can't say one way or the other and her face can get real pink and she's like Do you think at parties is a good place to have your first kiss or should it be somewhere else? It's where everyone is.

Well, it's kind of a big deal but it doesn't have to be big deal. It's who it's with him. Why you do it? Um if Luke is still in there talking to the college people, I'm just gonna wait.

He's coming by now. He's coming by now. He's coming by now. Okay, and I'm gonna ask him if he wants to go to the party with me.

Uh, yeah sure. That sounds fine. Yay party. We'll have to meet you at the party though because we're lying to my mom.

Shh. Okay. Oh, okay. There's just gonna shake her head and shrug just like go with it.

Well, let's probably come to visit at your house at this point. No, Alex has he? Yeah, okay. Well, you're listening to this.

Well, I know but I don't know like how far things are progressed when we're not on air. So what are you guys doing now? Uh, well, college there's over parties later. We gotta go get ready for quote unquote girls night.

Okay, I still need to work out at some point though. Why? Because Jerry has got it in her mind that the reason that DB didn't take her was she wasn't strong enough so she's making herself stronger. Well, Carrie's gonna go work out Sophia.

I don't know what Sophia do for a couple hours. She fine. We're Wesley's hodering. Well, if she knows Wesley's been hanging out with you know, she'll probably text five bajillion things Wesley understanding he can't respond right away and then go home and I'll do homework and forget about halfway through.

He does respond with Yabin Robizzi projects pretty big. Okay, she sends a bunch of hearts have fun. So Sophia's doing you said she was doing homework or whatever. Yeah.

Okay. Um, I guess we'll go to Fiona. Fiona, where were you going? To the juice bar.

She's like that. Uh, that Gavin had told you about. Yeah, I got coop on there. Isn't that where he is right now?

We're doing the stuff. Yeah, but I don't know about it. I'm just like, she hasn't heard about this place and she's like, maybe I can just. Try to go there.

I don't know. You go to the juice bar and at the juice bar, you see a couple of teens about your age teaching a bunch of kids some gruddy moves. That's cool. There's a juice bar and I think there's also like a burger sand.

Yeah. Sure. You can put that there. I don't remember.

No, it's just a juice bar where they sold juice. But yeah, you can. You can. It's just a juice.

It's just juice and like smoothies and stuff like that. Yeah. It's a good place for kids to hang out. Is there like indoor gym equipment?

Yeah, there's. Oh, this is this is the only is like feeling like a bit at home. A rock climbing wall and one end and then like a free running gym. Like a small free running gym.

Yeah. It's also like a little tiny like there's older. There's older arcade machines. You know, they can't afford the new ones, but there's like stuff from the 80s.

She's like, oh, look, I got it. Like, what is this? It seems to be a place where kids from middle school and elementary. Also, the point I just want to put on the outside of this, which you probably never knows before, but will be very important later on.

If I do something, there's also apparently a volcano outside of it, which you never know. It's a repeat. Wait, there's a actual volcano. Just no one ever came out.

No one comes out. It's on street. Wait, I'm going to look at this and be like, what the fuck? Why is it okay?

Oh, here. All right. So you're in the juice bar. I'm going to walk in and I'm going to be like, I just got this coupon for this movie or whatever.

What's your best movie? You can make him whatever, but the guy runs the juice bar is my uncle Eli. Okay. So Eli's there and he's like, I got a lot of juice.

What kind of juice do you want? Um, I don't know. Insert cool juice name here. He's got a menu with a bunch of special blends.

And he's like, all right, I'll get you a juice. Thanks. I'll just look around being like, this place is a bit cooler than. Yeah, it's fresh.

The ingredients are fresh. No preservatives, no artificial flavors. I mean, I'm nothing like a good juice. Yeah.

You look around and you do think the place is cool. Although there's only two people you're age. Everyone else is much younger. So this is what a youth center is.

Never knew there was this place and a volcano here. I'm going to watch them spar. I'm going to be like, you see, you watch Gavin and a key row, a spar. And they both look like they're very talented martial artists.

Have I noticed her here? Yes. Hey, awkward girl. My name's Fiona.

I said that before. I don't remember you ever tell me your name, but sure. All right, Fiona. I see you looking at us.

You want to get in on this class? You want to learn from us? You get to down with the kids. There's a spot right up front.

I know how to fight, but thanks to the offer. You want to spar? Sure. Why not?

She'll sit down her sword in her shield. How you want to do this? I say we roll fight and we don't actually attack each other. Okay.

I got a seven. I got a plus six. All right, you guys spar. It's a you both rolled very high.

So you're putting on a pretty good fight. But Fiona doesn't have super sweet martial arts moves, but she holds her own regardless. Just you know, you got, I'll tell you this, you got strength. You don't got technique and finesse.

My I'm more of the weapons type. Well, bringing your weapons. Let's try with that. Let's see if you do better.

Okay. You want me to do that? I'll bring in my sword and shield men. I got a plus five that time.

I got a also a plus five because I'm not using my super strength bonus. Okay. You put on you put on a decent show. The kids are impressed.

The cure is with the kids and he's pointing out to the things that Gavin is doing and saying you see that high kick. That's how you do. That's good for him. He's like that girl over there.

It's a juice bar rec center dojo. Let's put a pizza place in here while we're at it. Now pizza's too unhealthy. It's like out of keen wall bar.

I have a pizza place. Jungle theory. Yeah. Pizza's salad place.

Yeah. Like it's how it used to be. No, no, they'd probably be like fresh vegetables. You have to do it for vegetables.

What did you judge? I'm going to after that. I will bow and put up my hand to Fiona for handshake. She'll also bow and she'll also shake your hand.

Hey, yeah. Nice bar. And then I'll toss her towel. You're pretty good there, Princess.

What? Why did you call me Princess? I don't know the name Princess kind of goes with it. She'll stand there and kind of like.

Have you ever had a lot of you bet on like apparently in this this world and now you're all. The more I've been in this plane for about two years. So you've never seen Shrek. I know a little bit about the ear culture.

I've not seen Shrek yet. Well, watch Shrek and then you'll maybe get the. Oh my god. You're the fucking worst.

Thanks. They're old slow guy. Whatever. That's exactly where the name came from.

So thanks. You're welcome. I'll see you around. I guess.

Are you going to that party that penalty's holding? Yeah, me and me and I. You're going to go. That's cool.

My cousin throws some crazy parties sometimes. Oh, I know you guys related every time I talk to her. She's never mentioned you once. Well.

We're kind of distance cousins. Oh, OK. So yeah, what else here there maybe? I don't hide him on the back.

I'll be there. The shoulder. I'll be like, see you around. See you.

And I'm going to go home. I guess. What are you doing, Kevin? I'm going to get cleaned up because I've spart a lot and then I'm going to go.

I'm going to go check out. Put on my ninja mask underneath my hood and I'm going to go check out some leads on stuff I'm looking at. OK, you come from me when I need to thank you. And I'm going to start looking at some of the places where I knew that they were getting drugs in or where they were selling drugs at the Chad Rocky Chad.

Chad. Chad. Really cool. Party time.

Right. So you're going out and checking some leads. Chance. What's up?

I'm going to get lunch at the rec center. OK. At the youth center. Yeah, I got my juice on.

I'm going to go to the youth center all the time. We're dead to us right now. Hey, look, he has been a part. He's been there multiple times.

He's he's done a fundraiser and he helped support local businesses. OK. All right. So you go in.

You go to the youth center. You haven't already left, but a cure. Because they're he's he's pretty intent on training. So a lot of the kids started to filter out.

There's only a couple left. The ones that don't like have great home life. So they stay there. Yeah, I'm the only one there to see.

It's fine. Yeah. So yeah, there's a juice bar at the rec center. OK, Rose, practicing martial arts in the martial arts room.

What's the name of the juice bartender Eli? Eli, my man. Yeah. Today I want something special.

Let's go with a large number two extra shot of protein. And let's also get that energy boost in there. And I'm feeling a little sassy today. So I want to dollop of with cream on top.

All right. He's making your juice. He goes, you know, sugar and that it's gotta be sugar free with cream. I know you guys do that stuff.

We don't. Yeah. If we do anything, it's going to be actual cane sugar and not. I have just corn syrup.

Of course. Get me all sweaty. Think about that. Sure.

So he's making he's making your juice. He's like, you know, you always get that extra protein, but I never see you work out. I work out at home. You know, I have a little set up there.

It's because I also have all my gym clothes there. And you know, I don't want to, you know, the suits nice, but it's really for show. I can't, you know, I'm not going to get all sweaty in the suit. It would really diminish the visual aspects of what I got going on.

Fair enough. So you can see the glasses. It says get what I mean. I don't know.

But yeah, OK, sure. You juice juice juice juice juice juice, but I don't really want to. OK. I don't want to.

Yeah. Is it drink out of a gene and juice? Anyway, don't worry about it. Actually not like that protein.

That protein is awesome. It's about nice. We'll ask the protein. So it's all natural juice.

It's tasty. Yeah, I guess me a plus one to my athletics when I after drinking in for a scene. I should start introducing the potions. Yeah.

Potion seller. I require your strongest potion. Is that what the juice bar is? Is a potion booth?

Yes. Make it the potion, please. The only one with my potions travel. I'll take a touch and strong for you.

All right. So yeah, this is this is the potion bar and you got the protein plus. So you get plus one. Oh, yeah.

For a few hours after a trip. I'll push up. Alex, why pro plus you? I got you got the mango go go.

So you get a plus one to charisma for a couple hours after. Too bad. It's not a real scale. So you it would be rapport.

You'd have less one to report. Oh my God. I have that. So I got rapport.
