Hello again ladies and gentlemen, I'm back with yet another chapter! Please Enjoy! Lego owns all characters except for Dukan, Ra, Starge, Omega and Joey.
Chapter 11: Travel
Upon walking into the village Furno and the matoran (Whose name he had found to be Brock) tried to find someone to come to about watching Dukan until he awoke. Eventually finding a Le-matoran, Furno asked him: "Is anybody here a doctor"?
"Indeed I am firespitters"., the villager answered.
As Furno then lifted the unconcious body off of his shoulder, handing it to him, he told him: "My friend here needs medical attention and we can't stay".
The Le-Matoran gave him a curious look and asked: "What happened to him"?
"I... think he was hit in the head"., Furno answered. "By a board".
After Furno's brief explanation, the matoran rushed Dukans body into one of the wooden cabins and set him down on a bed, putting a moist cloth on his forehead to "Ease the pain" as he had told them. After this, Furno and Brock decided to give the Le-matoran some space by waiting outside as he tended to his patient. After a few minutes, he had come outside, telling them that Dukan hadn't taken any severe damage to the head, just some bruising and that he would gladly take care of him while he was out. Great., Furno humorously thought. Another reason to drive him mad.
"Thank you"., Furno told him. "Like I said, I can't stay long, but I at least wanted to make sure that he was ok before we left".
"I was well-certain that you did firespitter"., The matoran told them. "And when he awakens, I will tell him that you saved him".
Furno thanked him and gave him a God bless before he and Brock then headed back to the desolation that was the MARLs command central. They found the carraige and the two horses from earlier, heading to the state of Karmiko. Again, Furno didn't know much about this country, but he at least managed to memorize a few things about it. One of those being, that this place had a few cheap airport stations.
Now, in a deep desire to get back home as soon as Bionically possible, he made the horses speed down the road to their destination. Furno was desperate to get back home now to his friends, and to Breeze. Like he had previously said, He loved all of his friends dearly, but even to this day, he loved and missed Breeze the most. And everyday he was away from her, felt like a dagger was cutting deeper and deeper in his chest, screaming in agony for repair.
Furno had talked to Brock about this a couple times on their way to the airport. He knew this was a total stranger, but he could not get her out of his mind. It was all he could think about. But Brock seemed to understand. Over their next few days of travel, he actually told Furno that before he was kidnapped himself, he had actually had a wife and child whom he cherished everyday of their lives together.
Furno hoped that he could have that with Breeze someday. As long as Breeze was with him, he wouldn't even mind fathering a kid or two. Besides, since he was also her best friend, he was sure that they would be good role models for them. They would also be safe from harm since there was only one war taking place in one country and the selective services act was dropped. Ever since the world of Humans and Bionicles collided, there was really no more need from it.
The travel to Karmico ALONE took about three days, but Furno and Brock quickly found a blue sign that led to an airport once they had gotten back on the road the next early morning. They read the sign, slowed their speed after getting pulled over and followed instructions to where it was supposed to be. Instead, after all those miles they had come across what looked like a giant, empty parking lot.
As Furno then stopped the carrage and fed the horses, Brock exited the carrage and took a look at his surroundings. Brock was gone for a few minutes, returning in said time later with a look of disapointment.
"Crap"., Brock said.
"What's the problem"?, Furno asked, praying: Lord God, please let this problem be a fixable one. He had done been away from his friends for almost a year and he was NOT willing to be kept here any longer.
"This is an airport, just not the kind we wanted"., Brock told him. "A plane will only be sent here if we call one from another country or if we call a friend ,also from another country, to pick us up in one".
Furno grinned. "I can get this done in no time"., Furno said, walking out of the carrage.
"How"?, Brock decided to ask him.
"I'm gonna make a call and pay someone to fly the plane here"., Furno answered as he then walked to the old phone-both.
"As good of a plan as that is, do you even have your wallet with you"?, Brock asked him.
Instantly taking it out of his leg slit, Furno replied: "I don't leave home without it".
And Furno would easily be able to use this booth with the money he already had in it. One of the many earth changes made by both human and bionicle leaders was a system of universal money. Because of this, only one type of paper money and coin money could be used worldwide.
After then inserting four quarters into the coin slit, he typed in a number and put the phone to his ear. He heard a few rings before hearing the other side pick up and a familiar voice ask: "Hello"?
"Hey, we're at an airport in Karmico, can you send a plane to pick us up"?, Furno asked.
"Of course sir"., the voice said. "May I have your names"?
"My friend's name is Brock, he has a family down there somewhere"., Furno told him.
"Yes, we got a missing report about him a while back"., The voice said and then asked: "And yours"?
"William Furno"., Furno replied.
Omega nearly dropped the phone from hearing that. Was it really him? He stayed silent for a few seconds before replying: "I swear, if this is another one of those phone pranks, I'm gonna-
"Omega-, Furnos voice interrupted:-, I swear this is not a prank call". "It's really me".
Omega suddenly remembered the sound of his voice and found himself in astonishment."F-Furno"?, Omega managed to get out.
"It's me dad"., Furno told him. "And I'm ready to come home".
Sorry for the shortness of the chapter, but at least Furno's finally going back home! Enjoy this? Feel free to post a review or PM me about any questions or concerns you may have of this story so far. Thank you, and have a God-blessed day! :0)
