Chapter 4: Notes
Poo and Jeff arrived at the Andonuts' lab seconds after leaving Saturn Valley.
"Man, that teleporting makes me dizzy," Jeff said, regaining his balance after nearly tripping over himself. "Wanna stay for a while, Poo. I can have my cave-boy make you a brain food lunch or something.
"Sure, I have some time." Poo replied. "But on the food subject, I'm good for now, but thanks for the offer."
Jeff pushed a button near the door. It whooshed open, and the duo moved inside. Chemicals were everywhere, and the new Sky Runner was gone. A note was taped to the Instant Revitalizing Machine. Jeff grabbed it and read it:
...Hey nerd boy, I took your fat little father and that ancient freak ancestor of yours to Stonehenge.
Come get them back, if your smart enough...
POKEY
Jeff gathered his multi-bottle rockets and his Gaia Beam, and steamed, "I'm gonna blast his ass back to the past!"
Poo responded, "Not yet, we must return to my house to gather my supplies and to check to see if anyone was taken from there. We also must get Ness and Paula, since we cannot just rush into a fight without them."
Jeff agreed, and the two instantly teleported to Dalaam.
--------------------
Poo found his palace completely empty, and dead royal guards laid scattered all over the floor. At least my people put up a fight. he thought to himself. A note similar to Jeff's was left on his throne. Poo picked it up, and shoved it in his pocket, but didn't even bother reading it, because he already knew what it contained.
--------------------
Back in Onett, Ness found that his house had been sacked also and his mother and Tracy missing, but the note was slightly different for him:
...Well Ness, I see you've stumbled upon the first bite of my revenge.
Your mother and sister will be safe for the time being, but not for very long.
You see, if I don't get to kill you, then I must have someone to take your place.
I recommend bringing your friends, since they will also suffer the same fate as you.
My base is guarded well, so I doubt you will get very far. I'm waiting for you...if you've got the balls for it...
POKEY
As if she was waiting for Ness to finish reading, Paula began talking to Ness through psychic powers. Ness, something extremely terrible has happened! My parents and all the children are gone!
Stonehenge, right? replied Ness. My mom and sister are gone too. Hold on, I'm coming for you. Contact Poo and Jeff 'cuz I've got a feeling they've lost people too. Tell them to meet us at Apple Kid's, . We're goin' in!.
