Endor: episode #9 The Meeting
Now,
let the story begin! This is Endor,
Part 9.
"Well it's going to
happen again, and if we don't leave tomorrow, we'll be stuck here forever. Tomorrow's going to be the best day for
weeks. It's now or never."
With that Id and Iot
sat down. The audience nodded. All but one. And that one was Calris, Sian's love. Calris did not trust Id and Iot.
She never had. It was known to
everyone that Id and Iot were doing incest.
They were gay people with problems.
Yet everyone respected them and Calris did not understand why.
"I don't think we should leave tomorrow," she
stated.
Everyone turned to her
in surprise. Id and Ito gave nervous
glances to each other. They glared at
Calris.
Walker glanced over in
Calris's direction. "Why not?"
Calris answered with, "Because we said we'd
leave then and I think we should stick with our original plan. That's it."
Walker says, "Even after what Id and Iot have
said?"
Calris says, "Yeah, I
just have a bad feeling about this trip, that's all."
Id and Iot gave glares once again and Calris
did notice it. Calris wisely decided to
shut-up. Walker called for a vote.
"Let's vote on this
issue at hand. Who wants to leave
tomorrow? I think we should, the
sooner, the better."
Everyone except Calris
raised their hand.
"All who want to leave on time, Raise your
hand now."
Only Calris raised her hand.
"All right, then. We leave tomorrow. Any
questions?"
Sky says, "Does everyone have their supplies
ready."
A bunch of people nodded or said yes.
"Any other questions,"
asks Walker.
Calris raised her hand once more.
"Yes, Calris."
"Who's in charge of the food?"
I said after a short pause of silence, "Jed
is. He's also in charge of packing the
ship."
"Where is Jed,
anyway," asks Walker.
I answers, "I have absolutely no idea. He's supposed to be here."
But he was nowhere to be found. So, the meeting was forced to continue.
"Well, then," says
Walker to I, "do you know about his department?"
"Yes," says I, "everything is packed and
ready. The food is here. I just don't understand why he's not
here. I didn't notice he was gone until
just now."
"Any other questions?"
Calris again, "What
about the weapons?"
"Weapons, weapons,
who's in charge of those?"
Sky raises her hand.
"Okay, then please
give us the report," says Walker.
Sky says, "Well, we don't have much as far as
weapons go, but we do have some spears."
Calris did not look satisfied.
"That's not suffiecient,"she says.
Sky adds, "Well, we do have a couple swords
here and there. I think we have a whole
supply of them in one of the crates.
But what use do we have for weapons?
We aren't planning on going to war with anyone or anything."
Walker nods in agreement with Sky.
"No, I don't think we
need very many, either."
Calris is still not satisfied.
"If you won't provide
enough weapons, I'm bringing my own."
"That's fine," says
Sky. "All can bring what they
want."
Calris adds to her
earlier comments, "Well I don't think we're prepared enough. We're not ready to leave tomorrow."
Id and Iot give her more dirty looks. Only Calris notices.
Walker finally has had
enough and walks out of the room after saying, "This is too much for me. Whoever's second in charge the trip, take
over."
I says, "That'd be Jed."
Walker says to that, "Well as Jed can't be
found, no one know where he is.
Whoever's third take over?
Sky says, "That's me."
Walker says, "Fine. Good. Sky take over."
Walker walks out and sits by a tree, saying
to himself, "If anything goes wrong, it'll be all my fault."
And with that, the story must end.
But do not fear, there is always a next time!
Until next time!
