The many escapades of Zarbon: Volume Two
Zarbon's new adventure begins
Zarbon was ever so overjoyed right now! He simply couldn't believe his luck! The elite space warrior from another planet was getting ready to head off on another adventure! The last one was quite the trip, and as such Zarbon was looking forward to what all laid ahead for him on his second journey here.
Of course, Zarbon also knew that there was going to be a lot that he had to go take care of while he was going along on this latest romp. His friends needed his help here and there, and there was no way he'd leave any of them hanging. However, Zarbon was comforted by that as, just as he would be there for them, they would be there for him.
Zarbon liked how he'd always be in good company.
Before he could even begin his latest outing, Zarbon knew that he needed to make sure he had all of the supplies and provisions that he'd be needing along the way. As such, Zarbon went to the nearest general goods store to do some shopping. Luckily, it's two blocks from his place in Shonen City.
Entering the general goods store, Zarbon was greeted by the owner, a man wearing a rust red long sleeved tunic, dark brown pants with matching boots, and a faded dark tan work apron that looked well used. "Ah, welcome to my goods shop, good sir," the owner greeted, "Is there anything that I can help you to find here? If you tell me what you need, I might even check the back of the store to see if I got it back there."
"I'm just getting ready to head off on an adventure, you see," Zarbon began to explain, "I expect it to take quite some time, so I was just planning to get an assortment of supplies and provisions that I figure I'll be needing on the road that I got ahead of me."
The owner nodded in an understanding manner. "Alright, sir, so what all do you figure you'll be needing?"
Listing things off of his fingertips, Zarbon began, "Well I'll be needing a new thing of underwear, for starters. Some friends will be coming along with me, so I'll be needing some snacks for them. An extra pair of handcuffs, some medical items like gauze pads and antibacterial ointment-oh!" Looking right at the owner, Zarbon said, "I'm likely to run into some dangerous adversaries, so I'd like to also get a good weapon as well."
The owner looked a little confused by some of what Zarbon had just asked for, but he was able to brush aside said confusion as he said, "Just let me check the back really quick for one or two of the items you had asked for." Zarbon nodded as he let the owner look around in the back for what he had asked for.
A few moments later, the owner came back out, an arm full of various items in his arms. "Well I'll be damned, sir, I got everything to fit what all criteria you gave me," remarked the owner as he put down everything that he had on the counter. Pulling an underwear six pack out from the pile, the owner began, "Here's some men's underwear that ought to be a good fit for you."
Zarbon got a good look at the men's underwear that was being held up by the owner. "Oh my."
Setting the underwear down, the owner then searched through the pile as he said, "We got some snacks in here as well. Pop Tarts, flavored pretzel bits, jerky, a box of mazapán. There's also bottles of sports drink in here as well, to help keep hydrated."
"That will be a big help, I'm sure," Zarbon replied, "I almost forgot to include some drinks, so this'll cover that for me."
Holding up a pair of handcuffs, the owner went on, "Here's the pair of handcuffs that you had asked for, although I can't imagine why you'd be needing these on your adventure."
Zarbon offered only a smile. "Oh, I have my reasons."
Setting the handcuffs down, the owner went on, "There's a fully stocked first aide kit in here, and here's the weapon you had asked about." Pulling out a revolver from the pile of items, the owner said, "With this bad boy, you will be able to stop any adversary that you encounter. It'll let you unleash all sorts of punishment right into their asses!"
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHOOOOOOOO!" Zarbon cried out in aroused, sensual pleasure, "I'll take the lot!"
"I'll ring all of it up then," the owner replied, "Oh, the revolver comes with twelve regular bullets, as well as six silver bullets."
Zarbon looked confused by that last part. "Silver bullets? Why would I be needing silver bullets?"
"In case you run into any werewolves on your journey," the owner said. With an indifferent shrug, Zarbon purchased everything that was on the counter. Now that he was fully prepared, Zarbon set off on his next big adventure.
Author's notes;
And here we have Zarbon stocking up for his next round of escapades, by doing what any protagonist in an RPG game would do before heading off on adventure. Zarbon has quite the list of adventures he'll be having here, many of which share themes with one another, as well as having some call backs to past escapades. Keep your eyes peeled for next time, as Zarbon and some of his friends will be visiting a site to dig for fossils.
Take care.
