Chapter 4

A Familiar Stranger

Matt wiped the sweat off his face, the sun was hot and he didn't like working in this kind of weather. He was trying to close a bag over-stuffed with clothes and personal belongings. The clothes he was putting into the bag were the ones he used to wear when he was a member of the Blubber-Stitch. The Blubber-Stitch was a clan of mountain dwelling people with blond hair and blue eyes. Despite his appearance, Matt didn't feel he belonged in the clan. He didn't like the religion, which was called the Way of the Blubber, which forced him to eat only mushrooms (he hated mushrooms) and sacrifice monkeys by throwing them of cliffs.

So here was Matt, at the western most side of the Kingdom of Ty, on top of the highest mountain of the Measly Mountains, in the domain of the Blubber-Stitch. He was talking to the leader of the Blubber-Stitch, Mrs. Sandy Buttocks. Well, Matt wasn't actually talking, his interpreter was. After Matt tried to kill Sora, she put a curse on him, which caused a pimple to appear on his privates every time he pronounced the letter "s".

In Matt's defense, he was simply following the ritual that every man in the Republic Democratic Confederate Union of Ty was forced to follow. A Ty male had to periodically beat the crap out of an Aros female. Those were the rules. Plus she had lied to him. She had told him that she was a human, but in fact she was a sprite. So whose, wrong here? When they broke up, Sora had a broken heart, but now she has Tai. Matt was forced to take a vow of silence since he could never speak again. Who does he have now, his interpreter?

Anyway, he was talking to Sandy Buttocks because he was planning on leaving: for good.

"Matt, I understand that the Way of the Blubber may be a difficult religion to grasp at first, but once you do, you will have the most sophisticated mind ever." Sandy was telling him.

Matt responded in sign language, his interpreter spoke, "Mrs. Buttocks, I left this place once to join the Republic Democratic Confederate Union of Ty. Shortly after, I got married. When we split up, I came back here simply to reflect upon my life. Now I wish to take my belongings and leave for good."

Mrs. Buttocks glared at him, "Matt, I can't let you leave to join the Republic Democratic Confederate Union of Ty, if I did, it would be like giving you to the enemy. If you do decide to leave, you understand that the Blubber-Stitch will have to go to war with Ty."

Matt gestured with his hands impatiently; "I don't want to cause any wars!"

"Then stay here! It's my duty to keep you. I've been paid to keep you here after they brought you-" She clamped her hands over her mouth realizing her mistake.

"Who brought me here?" Matt's interpreter asked, now actually paying attention to the conversation.

"Nobody. I didn't mean to say that." Said Sandy.

Matt picked up his bag and waved goodbye. He was going to get some answers and he knew just the place to go: Tie. Despite Sandy's protest she could do nothing to stop him except throwing a mushroom at his face.

As Matt walked down the twisting winding path of the mountain, he met a boy that wasn't at all suspicious. The boy was wearing black pants, a black shirt, a black hat, and black shoes. His eyes were also glowing with the flames of hell. Other than that the boy was perfectly normal.

"You can't talk?" The boy asked Matt as he passed by.

Matt shook his head and beckoned to his interpreter, "I was cursed by a sprite."

The boy scratched is hair (which was not black but blue) "I can help you, come with me."

Matt didn't think it was a good idea to follow a boy completely dressed in black with hell-fire in his eyes, but if he could help him speak again... He followed the boy into a dark black cavern filled with black bookshelves and a black desk. On top of the black desk Matt noticed a bunch of black potions. The boy picked up a potion and said, "drink this."

Matt hesitated, but in the end he took the small flask and chugged it. It tasted like prune juice.

"Yuck!" Matt shouted, "That was the most disgusting thing..." His face lit up in utter joy and astonishment. "No pimples. I can say "s" I can say "s"!" He jumped around the room singing "Sally sells seashells by the seashore!"

When he finished bouncing around he turned around to the boy, "Oh thank you, thank you. If there is anything I can do for you please ask." Matt said with true gratitude in his voice.

The boy in black grinned and his eyes flared, "Well, if you can do me a favor."

Matt nodded, "Of course anything you want."

"Good. I need you to...dispose of someone for me. There is a kid from the Kingdom of the Rancid-Orgs who is prowling around in Tie. I need you to kill him."

Matt's eyes widened, "A kid from the Rancid-Orgs is running around Tie! How horrible! He deserves to die! Anyone in the Rancid-Orgs is forbidden to run around in any part of Ty. But in Tie! The capital! Of course I'll kill him!' Matt wasn't very smart.

"I knew you'd see things my way. You see, I would gladly kill the kid myself, but I'm forced to stay here in the Blubber-Stitch Clan. Since you're leaving I thought this was the perfect opportunity." Said the boy in black.

"What does the kid look like?" Asked Matt.

"He has blond hair and blue eyes and he is almost fifteen years old. His name is Tk. But there is something you must not do. You can't tell anybody about this, you wouldn't want to spread panic around saying that a kid from the Rancid-Orgs is running around."

Matt nodded.

"One last thing." Said the boy in black, "Once you've killed him bring the body back to me, it's for a ritual of the Blubber-Stitch."

Matt didn't care to know anymore about the Blubber-Stitch. He would simply kill Tk, come back with the body, and then leave this cursed mountain for good.

"Tk is residing in the palace of Ty, you'll find him there." Said the boy in black.

"Ok, I'll kill him, my name is Matt." He held out his hand.

The boy in black shook it, "Hello Matt, I'm Joe."

Matt smiled and left the cavern. He was headed toward Tie. Little did he know that was just sent on a mission to kill his own brother by a boy who was working for Harry Penis.

Joe smiled, "Stupid person. That was way to easy, well, if all goes well, when I become ruler of the world I'll make sure he becomes my slave. But now I have to get in touch with Harry and Homo to tell them that everything is going according to plan." That was when Joe realized that Matt's interpreter had heard everything and was gaping with horror in his eyes.

Joe glared at the terrified little man, "I have no use for you . You can't be hearing secret evil plots like this." With that, Joe chucked a flask filled with black liquid at the interpreter. The flask exploded into a giant fireball and the little man was burned to bits.

Joe laughed in an irritating cackling manner, "Good, now that that's been taken care of, I can lure some other unsuspecting person into my trap, how about Izzy, the boy genius from my homeland." Joe giggled evilly and began writing a letter to Izzy. But before he did, he had to go to an important appointment he had with someone.

***

Kari ran down the halls with a look of utter astonishment on her face. She had just seen her brother and Sora do something quite intimate. She tried to shake the thought from her head, she had more important things to worry about.

Tk had been called into the throne room by the King. Kari wanted to spy on the King to see what he was going to say to Tk. Unfortunately the room was heavily guarded. A soldier had told her that the King was talking about a matter of extreme importance and that he absolutely could not be disturbed...

"So Tk have you ever slept with a girl?" Asked the King of Ty.

Tk was shocked, "No Your Majesty, I'm not even fifteen yet!"

"Oh that's too bad, do you have a girlfriend at least." Asked the King

"No-well yeah I guess." Tk said. He wasn't really sure why the King was asking him these questions.

"Very good my boy. Now be quiet and listen because I have a very long story to tell and it's all about you're life.

"You are almost fifteen right? That makes it almost thirteen years since you have been kidnapped. Yes don't look at me like that. Let me finish. You were living in Ty when you were a wee little boy. Then on one dark day, the Orgs came and raided the palace. They kidnapped you and your brother. Yes you do have a brother although I doubt he is still alive.

"They took you to the Kingdom of the Rancid-Orgs and have attempted to raise you as a stupid ugly Org. Thank God they didn't. Isn't it strange how destiny works? Yesterday you were in the hands of the most dangerous and feared Org ever, and now, you are back in your homeland.

"As for your brother, the Orgs took him to the Blubber-Stitch. He came back to Ty a few months ago because he married some girl from Aros. But the marriage didn't work out so he returned to the Blubber-Stitch. I haven't heard of him since."

Tk's face was solemn. Why him? Why his brother? Why did the Orgs have to come after his family? What did he have to do with the picture? If the Orgs were going to kidnap someone, why not be someone of great importance. As if the King read his mind, he answered all those questions.

"Well, my boy, this might be hard for you to take in so please bare with me. The Orgs kidnapped you because...you're the heir to the throne of Ty."

Tk's jaw dropped, "What?!"

"Yes Tk, I am you're father." The King said. Tk could hardly believe it. No, impossible, it couldn't be true. And yet, whenever Tk looked around the palace, whenever he saw the city of Tie, he got this feeling of belonging.

"So...what am I supposed to do now, Your Majesty-I mean, dad."

"Well I suppose we should catch up son, you are after all, the Prince of Ty."

So Tk and his father talked and got to know each other. They talked about Ty and sex and horses and sex and girls and sex and power and sex and being blonde and sex and having blue eyes and sex and family and sex and Orgs and sex. They conversed for three hours and really got to know each other well as father and son. Did I mention that they talked about sex?

After a while Tk got bored and he really wanted to see Kari. The King said he could leave because Tk had already heard a lot. They would talk more later on. But before Tk left, the King stopped him.

"Wait Tk, one more thing." The King beckoned him to come closer.

"What is it?"

The King leaned in closely and whispered, "There is just one thing you can't do. You must not tell anybody that you are the heir to the throne."

"Why not?" Asked Tk.

"Because there are people who are trying to kill you for that reason! You mustn't tell anyone because it's too dangerous. Harry Penis's men are looking for you. You have to say low."

"I can't tell anybody?"

The King looked at his son and sighed, "All right you may tell Kari. But tell her to keep it secret. Not even her parents can know." Tk nodded and left.

He found Kari waiting anxiously for him in the hall.

"So what did he say?" Asked Kari.

"I can hardly believe it myself." Said Tk

"What did he say!?"

"He said that, the Orgs kidnapped me because, I'm the heir to the throne."

Kari's eyes bulged out of their sockets, "That's great! Wait till dad hears this!"

"No!" Tk shouted, "you can't tell anybody. That's what the king said. It's because there are people working for Harry, he's the org you saw yesterday, who are trying to kill me."

A worried look crossed Kari's face, "how horrible! Don't worry I won't tell anyone."

"Thanks." Tk said, then just for the fun of it, he kissed her. Kari smiled.

"Do it again." She said, and so he did. She ran her fingers through his neat blonde hair. He gently hugged her and pressed her to him. She broke the kiss and smiled again.

"You're so sweet Tk." She said.

He didn't have a chance to reply because at that moment she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him again. He returned the kiss, always softly and passionatly.

Just then, Kari's father ruined the moment, "Kari I need to talk to you!" He yelled from outside. Kari grumbled, if they had been at any other place in the palace they wouldn't have heard him.

"Coming." She groaned. She reluctantly let go of Tk's body but not before kissing him swiftly on his cheek, "I'll be back." She whispered.

When she got outside, she found her dad glaring down at her, "He had you in quite a lip-lock there didn't he?" He said angrily.

Kari blushed, "It's none of your business dad."

"Oh yes it is my business. If you do recall Kari, you found him coming out of the Kingdom of the Rancid-Orgs! Do you know what happens to someone who comes into contact with someone from the Rancid-Orgs? It's a total and complete prohibition from alcohol! I will not have my daughter associating with any mysterious young men that come from south of the border!"

"He saved my life!" Kari said desperately. She was frustrated because she couldn't tell her dad that Tk was the Prince of Ty.

"Good for him. You know how he saved your life? Because you wandered out of Tie and into the Measly Mountains! That was also against my wishes. You're still in trouble because of that! Now go to your room and stay away from that dirty boy. I have to shine some shoes."

He's not dirty, thought Kari. But she thought better than talking back to her father. Oh well, so she couldn't see Tk, at least when her father was around. So what? It meant she had to see him in secret, it would be a lot more romantic, she thought.

When she got to her room she noticed that she still had the item that she had stolen form her father's shoe room. She decided to keep it because she might need it.

***

Mimi Tachikawa, ASS investigator extraordinaire, was very much interested in the criminal life of Mr. Homo Sexual. She had seen him give a very important message to a man named Carl. Something had resurfaced in her mind. Mr. Sexual said something about a boy named Tk. Supposedly Harry's goons were looking for this Tk. She thought about it for a while. She tried to piece together all the information she had.

1-Homo Sexual was being paid by Harry to keep the fact secret that folk dances, when danced in front of Orgs, cause Orgs to go into chronic crapping disorder.

2-Folk Dances also increase the chances of having an orgasm.

3-Harry was looking for a boy named Tk (who was probably hiding in Ty palace.)

4-She needed a shower (not really important in regards to the case).

Then she looked at the clock and found out that it was time for her Folk Dancing Class so she hurried out of her dorm.

When she got back, she found her blind messenger pigeon waiting for her with a piece of parchment tied to his leg. She read the message it said:

June 4rth, 786

Federal Aros Government Letter

AROS SLEUTH SOCIETY-ASS

Dear Mrs. Tachikawa,

One of our agents spotted a suspicious blonde boy about the age of 18 climbing down the mountain which holds the Blubber-Stitch domain. He was laughing and singing like an idiot so we dismissed most of what he was saying. However he was muttering something about killing a refugee from the Rancid-Orgs. We believe this has a lot to do with your case. The strange blonde boy was heading in the direction of Tie. We want you to momentarily interrupt what you are doing in the university and follow this boy.

Simply spy on the boy and take all necessary measures to insure the safety of the people. Remember, you have a license to kill.

Finally, we strongly believe that this blond boy is somehow connected with Homo Sexual's case. Mimi this is a very important case and we, the Board of ASS , are confident of your abilities. You will crack this case. We will keep in touch. Your messenger pigeon will guide you to the blonde boy.

Good luck,

Board of ASS

Mimi wondered if her blind pigeon could really guide her to this boy. She pocketed the message.

"Ok you dumb bird, I guess I'll have to name you, how about Fido?" The bird responded by falling off her shoulder.

"Alright Fido, lead me to this blond person!"

Joe was tired. He had walked all the way from the Blubber-Stitch in Ty to the south of the border. He had to go to Blackball to talk to Harry. When he reached the gates of Blackball, deep in Butt-Crack Canyon, he saw another man walking towards the ugly city.

Strange, thought Joe. Why would another human come down here? The Kingdom of the Rancid-Orgs was off limits, and there were strict punishments for people who ventured down here. Joe stayed behind to see what the man would do.

He followed the man into Blackball, and to Joe's surprise, the man went straight to Harry Penis's house. Harry didn't seem to be in a very good mood, but the man stood his ground:

"I have a message from Mr. Homo Sexual." Said the man.

Harry's face lit up, "ah very good, please come in. Would you like a cannonball?

"Umm. No thanks, I have to stay light, it's a long walk."

"Fine, fine." Harry waved his hands impatiently, "so what's the message?"

The man recited what Homo had told him, "'Nobody knows about the powers of the folk dances yet. It is confirmed that if a human does a folk dance in front of an Org the Org will go crazy and suffer a sever case of chronic crapping disorder in which the Org will explode. The folk dance also had another purpose, which is described in the book 1,2,Skip, and 3.'

"Yes, I know of the second purpose." Said Harry, "go on."

" Also, I've sent my best spies to search for Tk. He has not been found but rumors say that he is lodging in the palace of Ty in the city of Tie."

Harry thought for a while, "Ok thank you, err.. what's your name?"

"Carl."

"Ok Carl. Take this gold back to Homo and thank him. Tell him that Operation Rip Apart will commence on June 16, Tk's birthday. If Tk isn't found by then, he'll surely die during the Operation like the rest of the people living in Ty."

Carl nodded, "Yes Mr. Penis. I'll make sure Mr. Sexual gets the message." And he raced out the door with the gold.

Joe walked in a few seconds after Carl walked out. Harry looked surprised and was about to speak but Joe cut him off.

"Don't worry Mr. Penis I heard everything. Listen, I have a person working for me that is looking to murder Tk as we speak."

A huge toothless grin spread across Harry's ugly face, "very good Joe. I have a favor to ask you.'

"What is it?"

"One of my spies tells me that there is a female ASS investigator who is on to us. I believe she goes by the name of Mimi Tachikawa. My spy intercepted her messenger pigeon, (he let the pigeon go afterwards of course) and found out that she is on to a suspicious blond boy."

Joe's eyes widened, "That's the person who I told to kill Tk!"

Harry burped, "then the situation is worse than I thought. Listen to me Joe and listen loud and clear. I want that girl dead. She is about to jeopardize the entire mission! I want you to kill her, dead, caput, I don't want to hear about her anymore!"

Joe nodded, "Don't worry I'll kill her. But first let's go over the plans."

Harry sighed, "Ok. Once Operation Rip Apart is unleashed, all of Ty will be completely destroyed by the power of our farts. Once that happens, you will rule everything north of the city of Tie and I will rule everything south of the city of Tie."

Joe smiled, "good. Well, I believe I have an appointment with a certain...Mimi." And he and Harry laughed like to constipated weasels.

When Joe left, Harry unleashed a massive fart that blew a two foot hole into the ground. Stupid boy, he thought. Joe didn't know that as soon as Harry stopped using him, Harry would kill him.

So: Matt is following Tk, Mimi is following Matt who is trying to kill Tk, Joe is following Mimi who has a license to kill and will probably kill Matt, and Joe is trying to kill Mimi...weird.

***

It wasn't until late afternoon that Matt reached the palace of Ty. Unfortunately for him, there were a lot of blond people there (including himself), so he was forced to ask around if anybody knew a Tk. Even more unfortunate, he wasn't allowed in the palace because a certain somebody was being kept in there. Matt would have to sneak in.

Just when he was about to climb up a vine (pretty stupid because he was still in broad daylight) three people exited the palace to go shopping. One of them he recognized and he fell off the vine. He went closer in order to see better. There was a girl with short brown hair holding hands with a boy who had blond hair. Then he saw her, the bitch, the slut, the whore who had cursed him.

"Sora!" He screamed with icy hatred.

Sora spun around and stared with shock horror, "Matt! You can say "s"?"

"Yesssss I can sssssssay "sssss"." He said, "A boy was nice enough to remove the curse."

"That's too bad. What are you doing here?" She said under gritted teeth.

"None of your business!"

At this point, a very clueless Kari tugged at Sora's sleeve, "Sora, who is that?" She whispered.

"My ex-husband, you can call him dick." She said.

Matt looked at Kari and his expression changed completely, "oh hello Kari! I remember you from the wedding. Nice girl really, this young man must be your boyfriend." He looked at Tk, "So what's your name?"

"I'm Tk."

Matt's eyes bulged out of their sockets. He couldn't believe his luck!

"Well I'm going. I'd rather not be exposed to you, goodbye!" Sora said. She grabbed Kari's arm and yanked her back into the palace, where she knew Matt couldn't follow her.

Tk didn't follow however. There was something he saw in Matt that he couldn't place. Matt also had the same feeling. What was it. How did this complete, stranger seem so familiar?

"Do I know you?" Asked Matt.

"I doubt it but you do look familiar." Said Tk

Matt nodded but then he realized why he was there and his spirits sank. He felt his knife in his pocket. If he did it now no one would notice and he still could get away.

"What's that?" Said Matt pointing behind Tk. Tk turned around and Matt raised the knife into the air, ready to plunge it into his brother's back.

At that very second, a female voice rang through the air, "STOP!!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ha ha ha ha, so bad of me to leave you hanging like that! Don't worry, I'll get chapter five up soon. I hoped you liked it. As always, more Takari and humor in the next chapter.

Remember to R/R. Ciao.
