Elwood Jackson: Legacy of the Grid
Surprise. Here's Lord Shockwave with a new Elwood Jackson story. Yes I know I said that Nature's Last Stand was the final Elwood Jackson story. But for the people who already know the stories. I made a joke, I'm not going to stop with my best stories and best character. In fact I present to you a new Elwood Jackson Trilogy. Starting with this story. Elwood Jackson: Legacy of the Grid.
Summary: Sam Flynn and Quorra are back from the Grid. But little do they know that a new program has taken over and rebuild the Grid. Coming to their help is everyone's favorite detective Elwood Jackson, three years after his last adventure. What will they uncover in the new Grid, and who is this new program.
Sam Flynn, son of Kevin Flynn was walking with Quorra trough the halls of ENCOM.
The company of his father. Who sacrificed himself for them, who destroyed everything he worked so hard for, to destroy Clu and bring them safe home.
"Sam where are we going?" Quorra asked. "To see how this company is doing" he told. They walked further down the hallway until they where in the meeting room.
"Hello everyone may I introduce you all to Quorra" Sam said. Everyone introduced themselves. And then the guard stepped in.
"Sir. A weird looking man is standing in front of the building asked to be let in" he said. Sam looked at the guard and said "let him in" the guard directly walked away.
A few minutes later two men walked in.
1 of them was a big muscled man who was normally dressed. He had spiky dark blond hair, blue eyes and wore blue trousers and a grey t-shirt. He was around his mid twenties.
The other man was shorter and a lot different. He wore black trousers, a black jacket with a white undershirt. He wore a black tie, black hat, and black jacket.
"Why is that guy dressed like a blues brother" Sam asked. The guard shook his head.
The man walked to Sam and said "I have a very important question for you Mr. Flynn" Sam looked up.
What could this important question be….
"Where is the toilet?" the man asked. Sam pointed to the long hallway "first door on the right" he said.
"Thanks" the weird looking man and said and ran to the toilet.
Quorra looked at him with a weird expression "is it me or is that guy weird?" she asked to the other big guy.
"No it is him. Sorry I didn't introduce myself. The name's Verger, James Verger" he said and extended his hand. Sam and Quorra shook it.
"Nice to meet you and who is that guy?" Sam asked. James smiled "never heard of him before?" he asked. Sam shook his head.
"Sorry if I'm saying this but he looks kind of weird" Sam says. James smiles again "he's always weird" James says. "Alright and why is he dressed like a Blues Brother?" Sam asks.
"He's always dressed like that. For the years that I know him now I never have seen him without that outfit" James Verger said.
The weird looking man came back from the toilet. And just then 1 of the young secretaries came and saw the man. She walked up to him and slapped him in the face, everyone but James was surprised.
The man looked around and said "okay I deserved that" and walked back to James. "Does that happen often?" Quorra asked sweetly.
"Sometimes. Mr. Verger have you already told why we are here?" the man asked. James looked weird. "Who are you?" Sam asked.
The man looked at him. "I, my boy. Am Elwood Jackson. The man who investigates, sues, defends and is everything but gullible" he said.
"Alright nice to meet you Mr. Jackson. But what are you doing here?" Sam asked. Elwood made strange movements with his hand. "Me and my assistant Mr. Verger here are here as a request from my old friend by the name of Gigz" Elwood said.
Sam tried to remember the name. "Oh yeah he worked here a while back. But only for like a month before he mysteriously left" Sam said.
Elwood nodded and walked off. "Hey where are you going Mr. Jackson?" Sam asked. Elwood turned around and said "call me Elwood. And do you have a computer here where I can communicate?" he asks.
"Yes. I show you" Sam said and walked Elwood and James to the computer the man needed.
"Here it is" Sam said and pointed at the computer. Elwood tabbed his shoulder "thanks Sam. Say you should try to contact Gigz. I think he knows something about the Grid" he said.
This left Sam confused. The Grid was destroyed, how…that man really was weird.
Elwood ticked in France on the computer and an address. A screen appeared with a very beautiful young lady with gold blonde curly hair.
"Hey beautiful it's me" Elwood said to the woman. "Oh hey hun, how are you there. You already arrived at ENCOM?" she asked.
"Sure did Pamela. But I still have to find Gigz here" he said. Pamela smiled at him. "It will be easy to find him. Gigz is smart, but he's horrible at hide and seek" she says.
Elwood smiles "true that. And say how is my little girl?" he asks. Pamela smiles and in her arms appears an infant baby. "She really misses her daddy" Pamela says and the baby looks at her father on the screen.
"She looks just like you" Elwood says and Pamela smiles. "Yes but she acts as you" she says.
Elwood smiled again "don't worry I crack this case quick and return to my two favorite girls in the world" he said. "I know you will, love you" Pamela said "love you to" Elwood said and signed off.
Elwood and James went back to Sam and Quorra "contacted Gigz yet?" he asked. Sam shook his head "he won't answer his phone and you said something about the Grid. And to tell you the Grid is destroyed" Sam said.
"That's where you're wrong boy. Gigz told me he and someone else rebuild it, he is extremely good in that" Elwood says. Quorra looks at the window and says "who is that window washer I don't remember him" everyone looks at the window washer.
The window washer was dressed as a Goth and had black hair and held a guitar "Meph Meph Meph Mephy Meph Meph Mephy Meph AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" the window washer yelled as his platform fell down to the ground.
"Oh my goodness we got to help him" Sam said and he and Quorra ran downstairs. Elwood and James looked at each other and silently walked downstairs.
A few minutes later…
Sam bend over the window washer who laid with his face to the ground "is he okay?" Sam asked. Elwood looked at him and said "don't worry I know he's alright watch this" Elwood cleared his throat and said "well since he's unconscious he doesn't mind if we set our feet on his hair" and in that moment the window washer stood up.
"NO Please don't mess up the hair. Everything BUT NOT THE HAIR" he pleaded. He looked at Elwood and said "oh hey Elwood long time ago" Elwood looked at him.
"Dude it's only been about 3 months" Elwood says. Sam comes between them "wait you know each other?" Sam asks. "Sure do. Sam this is Meph, he's the brother of Gigz and is the singer of the band TAB" Elwood tells.
"Glad to meet all of you. Uh Elwood, James I didn't exactly came alone with me is" Meph wanted to say the name but then a very happy and upbeat drummer came in sight and yelled "late night party" it was Skully.
Elwood grabbed a small device from his coat and pressed the button on it. And Skully flew in the air and right against the ENCOM building.
Sam and Quorra looked shocked and Elwood said "his late night parties are boring" and Meph adds to that "I thought he annoyed you" Elwood nods and says "that to."
Sam looks at Elwood and says "you're weird" hoping not to sound to offending. Elwood just holds up his shoulders and says "if I wasn't this would probably never work out" as he walks back inside and Sam just looks at him weird.
So that's the first chapter of Elwood Jackson 4. I know some people don't know this characters yet, and I suggest you read my other Elwood Jackson stories to understand the characters. And just to be clear, this fic has no connection to the other three EJ stories, except for the characters that appear.
For those who already know my characters, I hope you like this story. And I see you back for the next chapter.
