Author's note: Here we are the epilogue! Sorry that the chapter didn't came out sooner, I was very busy with a lot of personal stuffs lately. But after nearly over 4 years this story has finally been completed, but not so fast because I am planning on writing future sequels and spin-offs. Plus I needed to polish and fix some of the errors, grammar and structure of this old story before I moved on. Anyways, lets just get to the epilogue of this story for its closure.
Disclaimer: I don't own Ed Edd n Eddy, My Little Pony, Total Drama and Kamen Rider. All rights belong to their original creators and basing on KnightBrony's story along with Damnlastword's permission to write this fanfic.
On the outskirts of the Everfree forest laid several broken bodies of what were once Timber Wolves, their wooden remains scattered about the forest floor, hacked, slashed, burned, and blown to pieces. They were the first and only creatures to get in his way. Retsu wasn't angry, oh no he was absolutely FURIOUS beyond words, Chrysalis backstabbed him and literally stabbed him in through the gut and it hurts excruciatingly. Fortunately for him, his Kaijin/Changeling hybrid powers granted him accelerated regeneration, allowing him to cover up the wounds before he could bleed out or die from internal damage, but healing from such a wound still takes a toll on him.
When Retsu landed down below the reactor, he fell unconscious for a few minutes before regaining his bearings and slipped away through a hidden panel and exited down a hallway, from there he watched the unfolded battle back in the reactor via a control panel. As much as he hated to admit it, he was rooting for the Riders and their pony friends to kill that traitorous bug. Luckily, they managed to defeat her, making the Foundation X scientist pump his fist in jubilation, but it was short-lived when he realized that their combined attack only seemed to erase her Kaijin powers. Powers he gave her.
While this would mean all of his handwork had been wasted, he would rather have it be erased than being abused by that good for nothing backstabber 'Served her right' he thought.
He nearly screamed in rage when he saw Chrysalis fire a beam at the reactor, making the ship gone to critical overload. Whether he liked it or not, his precious Exodus ship was about to go up in flames. With no other options, Retsu dashed for the nearest escape pod and jettisoned himself out of the ship. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to type in any coordinates, he just pushed in some random numbers and let the pod do the rest. It was a rough ride as the pod jostled and rattled all the way until it impacted in the Everfree Forest. From there, Retsu got out of the pod in exhaustion and witness the end of the Exodus, and if he's lucky enough, the end of those damn Riders, their pony friends and Chrysalis.
With all things considered, he should made his way to the pony's ship and attack them when they were least expected. No doubt that all of them were exhausted from their battle and even with the sheer mass numbers of them, they all would hopefully be easy pickings. But even if the Riders would be exhausted as well, they always have a knack for pulling victory from the jaws of defeat, which would make the odds even more in favor for them. In the end, Retsu decided that biding his time to recuperate was a better option for him.
So, he wandered through the forest, which brings us to now. A few hours had passed as Retsu saw his target. A quaint little town off in the distance, not too far away, just a quick fly and he'd be there. Chrysalis spoke of this little town, it was called Ponyville, it was where Twilight Sparkle currently lived, along with her friends and some of their family members. Retsu glanced towards where the warship the ponies flew was still hovering around Canterlot city. Even if they headed towards the village, by the time they arrived, the town and everybody in it would be dead.
Retsu stared down at the peaceful town "A fitting little compensation, you took my ship and my victory." the mad Kaijin scientist said "So, I'll take your home and those you love!Hahahaha!" Retsu chuckled sadistically as he extended his wings and was ready to take off towards Ponyville, in an attempt to massacre the poor town and slaughter the inhabitant. But just as he was about to do it.
BEE-BEE! BEEP!
The sound of a car horn stopped him mid takeoff. The sound of a car engine roaring caught his attention as it barreled towards him from the left, Retsu jumped upwards, narrowly dodging the speeding vehicle as it skidded to a stop a few feet away. The car appears to be that of a racing car with a bright red color, white racing stripes that went down the middle of the car, the top was colored black, and the spoiler on the back of the car sported two extra tires.
"What the!? How is there a car in this world?" Retsu said, seeing as how limited this world technology is and the pony's extensive use of magic, they wouldn't need such vehicle, not to mentioned they mostly used carriages and carts.
"Well well well, what do we have here?" An unknown voice came from inside the car startled Retsu a bit. Then from the driver's side, which was the right side of the car had opened and the driver stepped out, revealing to be a…a Kamen Rider!
But this Kamen Rider is not like any that Retsu had ever seen before. The top half of his armor was the same red color as the car. The Rider's helmet was red and sported a car spoiler on the back, with eyes mimicking car headlights and the mesh layer was black along with an R/K hybrid letter on his forehead and silver mouthplates, making his head resemble a racing car. His body suit is entirely black with red metal shoes, red metal shin guards, silver knee pads, red metal vambraces and silver wrist bands and black gloves. On the left wrist appears to be a brace with an attachment of some sort. Along with a red belt around the waist with a bulky metal buckle with what appears to be a car key inserted to the left side and a circular screen on the center. But the most bizarre characteristic of this Rider is that there is a black tire running diagonally across the Rider's chest armor.
"You know, when I was told to patrol this area, I wasn't expecting much to happen here. Since the majority of the bad stuff was happening all the way over there." The Rider pointed up towards Canterlot, where the battle had taken place "And honestly, I was feeling bad that I wasn't up there to help them out. But it seems that I get my chance after all." the Rider said with a hint of sass.
Suddenly a knock was heard on the side of the car, that's when it hit Drive "Oh yeah I almost forgot about him." said the car racer as he headed to the other side of his car and opens the door, a being jumped out of the car seat and landed on the ground.
The being revealed to be a unicorn stallion with a dark brown fur color coat, long brown mane, green eyes and a short goatee. Wearing metal earrings, a black string necklace with a bull skull on his neck.
"How's the seat back there Alejandro? Hope it's not too bumpy for you." said the red Kamen Rider.
"Well it's definitely a lot groovy and more exciting than a typical carriage and a derby race cart combine for that matter." said the pony named Alejandro.
"Who the hell are you two?!" Retsu demanded, getting the two's attention as he points his weapon at them.
"The names Alejandro pal and it's kinda rude for you to interrupt us like that." Alejandro said as he dusted his chest with his hoof.
"And you can call me Drive." The Rider answers the hybrid Kaijin "Kamen Rider Drive!" he announced.
Retsu looked puzzled at the Rider in question, while there are tons of Kamen Rider names he had of in the past. He had never heard of a Rider by that name, Foundation X only had information on the Riders up to Gaim and even he was still being researched. That's when he realize something "Hold on a sec, Kamen Riders usually drive motorcycles. Since when do you drive cars?!" Retsu said.
"Typically, yes. The majority of Kamen Riders do drive motorcycles, but Drive in particular here is a unique kind of Kamen Rider." said an unknown voice.
Retsu looked around when he heard a new voice "Who said that?" he said as he frantically looked around.
"That would be me." again said the unknown voice.
Drive then points his right index finger down on his belt "Down there." the Rider told the villain.
Retsu looked down towards Drive's waist and watched as the belt's display screen changes and display a kind of face. "Hello there." the belt said with a screen face resembling Drive's mask with a pair of red headlight eyes and two moutpiece.
"HOLY SHIT! THE BELT TALKED–YOUR BELT TALKS?!" Retsu exclaimed in shocked.
"Yeah, been there too pal. The dude literally startled me when I first meet them." Alejandro admitted.
Drive chuckles at both the Foundation X scientist reaction and Alejandro's comment "You always have that effect on people, Mr. Belt." He said while looking down on his Driver.
Drive's Drive now named Mr. Belt made a sad face. "Unfortunately it's always been that way." the belt said with a bummed voice.
Despite the shock, Retsu was fascinated by this revelation, an artificial intelligence built into a Kamen Rider's belt, this was truly astounding and unique compared to the other Riders he had studied in the past. But as much as he wanted to try to dissect Drive's belt and pick it apart to see how it worked, he had other plans.
"Since you're new and that pony there is not involved with anything, I'll give you two a chance to move aside." said the freakish Foundation X kaijin.
Drive rubbed the back of his head and said "Hmmm, yeah...no can do. Not only as a Kamen Rider, but as a police officer, I can't allow an attack on innocent people...or er, ponies in this case." he said as he clench his right wrist tightly.
"I gotta go with the dude here. It's not cool to spoil my pals victories back up there." Alejandro said as he too made a battle stance.
Retsu huffs in amusement "Your friends up there couldn't handle my power, what makes you think you can?!" he stated.
Drive scoffed and widened his stance. "Heh well, I think I might surprise you. Ready Alejandro?" the Red Rider asked the Spanish accent pony.
"Not much of a hero tropy pony, but I don't like it when ponies try to be party poopers to my friends." Alejandro agreed as his entire body lit up on fire like a living torch.
Drive nods as he looked down on his belt "Ya ready Mr. Belt?" he asked his Driver belt.
"Alright!" Mr Belt said with excitement as Drive's headlight eyes flashed brightly like a cars' headlights "START YOUR ENGINE!"
Retsu's blue and red crystals glowed as he tapped into the powers of Demushu and Nazca, at the same time he summoned their respective weapons. With their powers he dashed towards Drive in a second, but before the Kaijin Hybrid could land the first blow, Drive accelerated in blinding speed and dodged the blow with the sound of a race car echoed while Alejandro jimped out of the way in time.
Alejandro looked back in surprised "Wow, not gonna lie there dude, you're pretty quick." the unicorn complimented, but with a cocky smirk "Good thing I have a few experiences with speedsters and having another one to back me up." he said as he gave a nod to Drive who responded with a thumbs up.
Retsu was surprised that the Rider was fast enough to dodge a Kaijin as fast as Nazca and how a pony could have such a good reaction time, but he just wrote it off as a fluke. Retsu twirled around and sped towards Drive once again, slashing with both his swords. However just like before, Drive accelerated and dashed away from yet another attack. Retsu was going to attack again, but then watched as a red and black blur was moving around him at speeds he had never seen demonstrated by a Rider. Drive took advantage of Retsu's confusion and took out a small, orange toy-like car from a holster on the left side of his belt. The red Rider placed the car, the Shift Car, into the brace like device on his left wrist, part of the Shift Car changed into a lever, which Drive pulled once.
"TIRE KOUKAN!" (Tire Change!)
MAX FLARE!"
The car that Drive drove, the Tridoron's spoiler wheel suddenly caught on fire and launches itself out and flies towards Drive. The black tire around Drive's chest dispatched itself and was replaced with the new one which flew right onto him. It was orange in color, with flame-like spikes coming out of it, and along its side were the words "Max Flare". Tapping into the power of his speed, Drive dashed towards Retsu, this time going on the attack. Retsu came in swinging with his blades, but Drive nimbly dodged the first sword strike, and then the second, bringing him within punching distance of Retsu. Drive's right fist lit on fire just as he punched the Kaijin Hybrid right in the chest, causing sparks to fly from Retsu's body, the Kaijin Hybrid stumbled backwards, caught off guard by the power he had been hit with.
The assault didn't stop, Drive pressed forward and delivered one fiery punch after the other, sending more sparks into the air with each successive hit "Ha! Now that's more my style! Let me have a go!" Alejandro said with excitement before shouting to Drive, getting the Riders attention before he throws a hard flaming punch right at Retsu's jaw, hard enough to cause him to stumble back a bit so that Alejandro jumps up and delivers a flaming buck kick right at his spine with an audible pop before he swing his leg on the Kaijin Hybrid freak to cause Retsu to fall and landed on his flaming body, Retsu screeches in pain as he got off of Alejandro and tried to stood back up with his back being scorched like a burnt brisket. Before he could react, Drive got back into the fray and delivers more flame attacks on him.
Retsu have had enough and transformed himself into a large mass of water, Drive missed his next attack throwing him off balance. Retsu reformed behind Drive and slashed at his back in an "X" pattern and made sparks fly off Drive's armor.
"Okay then, that was pretty sneaky of you." Drive criticized.
"Whatever works for me Drive!" Retsu shot back bitterly as he turns into water again and speed towards Alejandro. The unicorn tries to dodge him, but he was too late as Retsu caught him into the mass of water, putting out his flaming body back to normal and tries to drown the pony in the mass of water.
"Alejandro!" Drive said in concern as he reaches to the Shift Car on the brace on his left wrist. He lifts the Shift Car up and down three times to activate his next attack.
FLARE! FLARE! FLARE!
With that, the orange flame tire on his chest lit up on fire and Drive speed up towards Alejandro with flames striek on the floor behind him. The Rider manages to snatch the unicorn out of Retsu's water trap. The two looked back and notices how Retsu's liquid form was reacting strangely as there are some water vapor coming out of him.
This gave Drive an idea as he looked at Alejandro in his arm "Alejandro can you lit up on fire again?" Drive asked
Alejandro looked at himself and tries to channel his elemental magic again. Fortunately, despite being doused by Retsu's water form a few moments ago, he was able to lit himself back on fire as the heat from his body have vaporized the remaining water on him. "Yeah, I still can. What's up?" he asked.
The Rider nodded as he saw Retsu regained his bearings and was about to drowned them in his water form again. Reacting quickly, Drive grabs the Shift Car lever on his left brace and lifts the lever up three times again.
FLARE! FLARE! FLARE!
"Uh...What are you doing?" said the concern Spanic pony as Drive suddenly grabs him on his front hooves.
"I'm gonna need some extra fire power, try to lite up as hot as possible and please don't throw up." said the racer Rider as he began to rapidly spin, just as Retsu came into their range, fire was ignited from both the Rider and Pony as a massive fire tornado began to lit up around the two of them as the villain was caught inside of it. The intense heat and pull of the tornado was burning Retsu, boiling his water form to the point that if he stayed in it any longer, he'd most assuredly evaporate into merely water vapor. Reluctantly, Retsu changed back into his physical form just as Drive stopped the tornado.
Seeing this, Drive gently lets go of Alejandro who in question ran to a nearby bush and began to vomit there while the Rider sped towards Retsu with a flaming punch, but at the last second Retsu split down the middle, calling upon the power of the Gemini Zodiart crystal on his chest and turning himself into two Retsus.
Drive skid to a stop a few feet behind the clones and looked upon them "How do you like your odds now, Rider?!" the two Retsu's mocked.
But Drive wasn't impressed, in fact he scoffed at the two clones "Don't think that you're the only one who can do that trick, so can I." He said as he took out the Max Flare Shift Car and replaced it with a purple Shift Car.
"TIRE KOUKAN: MIDNIGHT SHADOW!"
Just like before, the Tridoron's back tire changed, this time becoming a misty purple before it shot off towards him. The Max Flare tire popped off and then allowed the new one to take its place. The new tire was purple in color and had spikes that made it look like a four-pointed shuriken, and just like the previous tire on the side it read "Midnight Shadow". Drive made a hand sign and in the blink of an eye, three more Drives appeared. Making four of him instead.
"Though I think I can do it better." The original Drive said with a hint of glee.
Alejandro was done vomiting as he manages to regain his bearings right after the massive spin, only to see two Retsu and four Drives "Woah! Am I still dizzy from being spun? Cuz I'm seeing doubles and quadruples." he said with a puzzled face.
Mr. Belt chuckles amusingly "No Alejandro, you are not seeing things. Drive here has multiplied himself into four copies of himself to even out the odds with our opponent here." the belt explained.
Retsu growled in frustration, this new Rider was able to multiply as well? Deciding to ignore on how he did that, Retsu charged at Drive, two of the Drive clones met his attacks head on, catching the blades in the crook of their forearms as the Retsus brought down Nazca's sword. The second Retsu prepared to attack with Demushu's sword, but the Third and Fourth Drives jumped in, summoning purple energy constructs of the Midnight Shadow tire and flung them like windmill shurikens towards the two Retsus'. The shurikens struck at their wrists, making the two Retsus release their swords and hiss in pain. That distraction allowed the Drives to push back on the Retsus blades, giving Drives #1 and #2 time to form their own shuriken and throw them at the Retsus one after the other.
The damage that the two Retsus took was too much and forced them back together. The Drive clones then reformed back into one "Time to spike things up." he said as he takes out the Midnight Shadow Shift Car and change it with a green Shift Car.
"TIRE KOUKAN: FUNKY SPIKE!"
A third tire flies off from the Tridoron and clashes on Drive's chest to remove the previous Midnight Shadow tire to attache itself onto him. The new tire was green colored, with sharp spikes poking out from it. Drive began dashing around Retsu and as he did the Funky Spike tire fires several energy projectile spikes towards him, each spike struck Retsu from different angles, causing multiple sparks to fly from his body. Drive stopped in front of the Kaijin Hybrid, the tire began spinning rapidly and glowed green as Drive got closer and let the spikes grind at Retsu's chest. The rapid attack sent the Foundation X scientist flying backwards as Alejandro saw an opening, he stood up on his hind legs and channels a large ball of fire on his front hooves which he then launches right at Retsu, the fire ball struck right at him as it causes him to knock back down on the ground hard.
"Shinnosuke, Alejandro let's finish this!" Mr. Belt said.
"Okay!" Alejandro complies as his entire body lights up on fire once again.
"Got it!" Drive replaced the Funky Spike Shift Car with the original red Shift Car one.
"DRIVE: TYPE SPEED!"
The Funky Spike tire detached and was replaced with the black tire of Type Speed, Drive then turns the Advanced Ignition key like attachment on the belt Driver and then pressed the Red Igniter button on the brace device on his left wrist.
"HISSATSU!"(FINISHER!)
"FULL THROTTLE: SPEED!"
Drive's visor eyes shined bright white, the Tridoron car revved up its engine as its tires squealed, launching itself towards Retsu. For a moment, Retsu thought the car was going to ram him, but the car super accelerated and turned instead, now it is circling around him in a red blur. Before Retsu could figure out what was happening, Drive dashed across the battlefield and slid in, the action caused sparks to erupt from where his feet and legs made contact with the ground as Drive drop kicked Retsu, making him fly up about a foot off the ground.
Upon doing this, Drive dashed towards where the Tridoron car would be, matching his timing with the Tridoron car and bounced off it and straight towards Retsu. The Kaijin Hybrid was kicked from behind, from the front, the sides, right, left, back, front and everywhere as Drive's attacks came at Retsu from every angle, making it impossible for Retsu to predict his next strike or to keep up with him, or even defend himself for that matter.
Alejandro was amazed at the kind of speed and attack he's seeing before him, this guy might even make Taro jealous if the pony in question were every get the chance to see this. The Rider then looks back at him and calls out "NOW ALEJANDRO!"
This caught the Spanish accent unicorn's attention as he charges in and jumps up as high as he could and made a flaming kick pose as he became a literal flaming torch like meteor. As Drive focused all his power into his right foot, making it glow red as he came in with a blazing red Rider Kick alongside with Alejandro's flaming buck kick straight at Retsu. Upon making contact, Drive drove his foot into Retsu's chest while Alejandro pushes his hind hoof with immense heat, both of them were carried forward by the power and force of their kicks, the Kaijin Hybrid struggles to retain his form, to keep from being destroyed by this power, but it was quickly becoming a battle of attrition for him. Drive and Alejandro bent their right legs pushes off Retsu, leaving a glowing red imprint and a burning hoof mark on the Foundation X scientist's chest.
"DAMN YOU…DRIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVEEEEE!"
Kamen Rider Drive flipped once in the air before landing upon the ground while his pony partner landed with both hooves like a cat, watching as Retsu explodes in a fiery end a few feet away.
"Hey! What about me huh!?" Alejandro shouted in annoyance since the mad scientist didn't called out his name "Oh nevermind." said the bumped unicorn as he decides that it was not worth bothering about since the villain was gone now. When Drive was sure that Retsu had met his end, he deactivated his transformation by turning of the ignition key on his belt Driver and removes his Shift Car.
"NICE DRIVE!"
The armor disappeared, revealing to be a young man with combed hair in a formal black suit, consist of a typical black jacket and matching black trousers along with a white inner shirt and a red tie with white stripes, along with a police badge attached to his left. "Well, that thing was certainly different from the Roidmudes." the young man commented.
"Indeed Shinnosuke, from what I could determine, he seemed to be a combination of different various monsters. I wonder how he achieved such a feat?" said who is the Driver belt on the waist of the young man who is named Shinnosuke.
"Better that you guys don't know about it, probably not good for anyone to know about it for that matter." said a familiar voice as Shinnosuke, Alejandro and Mr. Belt jumped and turned around, the three of them calmed down a little when they saw that it was Discord, the being who summoned them here.
"Oh Mr. Discord, how are things up there?" Shinnosuke asked as he straighten up his tie.
"Nothing too serious, we won, yay team!" Confetti exploded behind Discord with a sign that read 'Go Friendship!' "And, thanks, I guess, for taking care of that little nuisance." Discord said with gratitude.
"Any time, I'm just sorry we couldn't be of more help." The police man said with pity and shame.
"Yeah dude, Eddy and the bros up there could have need extra hooves." Alejandro agrees with the Rider.
Discord waved a dismissive claw. "Eh, you were plenty of help here. Trust me, they needed to do a whole friendship thing and since you weren't called here by the Elements 'Due to Twilight didn't used her element' it wouldn't exactly fit the story's canon" He said while whispering the part about Twilight didn't used her element for the summoning spell "Anywho, time for you two to go home!" he said, referring to Shinnosuke and his Driver belt a.k.a Mr. Belt.
Discord snapped his claw and opened a portal back to Shinnosuke's home dimension. The police man in question hops back into his Tridoron car and drove it towards the portal as Alejandro approached them from the drivers side of the Tridoron car.
"Well, even though it was only been a few hours. It's nice to get to know you guys." said the stallion as he raised his hoof up.
Shinnosuke smiled as he gave him a fist hump on the pony's hoof "Sure, no problem and if you ever need us." he began.
"Do not hesitate to call on us." Mr. Belt finished.
"Oh don't worry, we got things from here now. Good luck with those Roid things, you're going to need it for what's coming, especially with that psycho father-in-law of yours!" Discord said with a wicked smirk as he waves his eagle claw.
"Wait wha–?!" Before Shinnosuke could ask further, the portal swallowed him and the Tridoron car up, leaving only Alejandro and the Spirit of Chaos standing in the open.
"Hold on, what did you said? Something about Shinnosuke's psycho father-in-law?" said the perplexed Alejandro.
"Oh I can tell you all about that, but then I have to send you to a whole different dimension." the Lord of Chaos nonchalantly said, causing the pony to gulp nervously.
"Nevermind, forget that I said that." Alejandro said with a nervous smile.
Discord chuckles amusingly as he looked around and snapped his paws and claws, repairing the damage to the landscape, making it look like nothing ever happened. Another snap of his claws took care of Retsu's escape capsule and any damage he caused when he landed and when he made his way to this location.
"There, ugh how does that Tsukasa guy make it look easy to pluck these Riders?! It's a pain in the claw to reach that far out of our dimensional plane! Humph, I must be getting rusty." said the irritated Draconequus as he look at his paws and claws.
"So, am I gonna be needed again?" Alejandro asked.
Discord gave him a smug "Oh of course you're gonna be relevant Alejandro, you're gonna help with the clean up around here." said the thrilled Draconequus as he picks up Alejandro in his lion paw and with that, Discord teleported both himself and Alejandro away to return to the ponies and assist them with cleaning up Canterlot.
Author's note: AND THAT'S A WRAP UP FOLKS! WHEW! Over four years, this story has finally ended and yes we got our debut of pony Alejandro and Kamen Rider Drive! Since Drive is the only Neo-Heisei Kamen Rider who didn't get an early bird cameo compared to his other fellow Neo-Heisei Riders, me and the people in FIMfiction thought it would be nice for him to make a quick cameo appearance in the epilogue to show you all for what's to come. And if you all remember what Discord said about having someone there to keep an eye on Ponyville while he came to visit the two Alicorn sisters in Chapter 17: Counterattack, yes he was referring to Alejandro and Kamen Rider Drive.
Also, if any of you are wondering then yes, Drive is supposedly the Element of Magic to Twilight Sparkle and how is that? Well while he is a speedster, likes to chillax and has some athletic attitude like Rainbow Dash, he's also has a noble code and doesn't like lies and secrets like Applejack, he likes to have fun and making others happy from time to time like Pinkie, he has a kind and gentle part of him like Fluttershy, he's also generous when it comes to the people around him and to some of his enemies and would even let them get a second chance when it is right like Rarity. And while it doesn't seem like it, but he's also very calculative, analytical and observant when it comes to solving crime cases and Roidmude related incidents like Twilight would be as a detective, but he's a police officer instead of a detective. And most of all, like Twilight he has friends and people who cared for him back him up when he's needed and Mr. Belt (his Driver) is the person who gives him the right guidance like with Celestia and Twilight.
Okay I think I got out of track here. Anyways Drive will be one of the many other Heisei Riders we will be seeing in future sequels and spin-offs of this grand story. I can't guarantee if I could keep the stories up to date regularly, but I will put the effort to get them out for all of you to read and enjoy.
So for now, THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
