I can't be arsed to write notes so I'll just say the normal stuff.

No jokes here.

On with the chapter.

Chapter 25: Minor inconvenience

"What is he doing?"

"I wish I could tell you."

Shen and I stared down at Zoh in a mix of confusion and joy. There was something amazing about seeing a man swimming through the ground without an issue. The fact he was wearing a metal suit made it slightly less incredible but not by much.

I looked around the gardens we were in and spotted the usual summoner who was making his way towards us. When I looked back down Zoh was a few metres away from me so I skipped to catch him. A few moments later the summoner was walking next to us and trying to get mine and Shen's attention.

"Does Zoh realise he's fucking up the gardens? Also, how and why is he doing this?"

"I doubt he realises that and I think he said he wanted to do this then walk on water."

"That doesn't explain much."

"He had a lot of coffee."

"You realise we are in the process of making a new law that prevents him from doing that?"

"You're kidding right?"

"Not even. All the summoners have agreed that someone like him would be absurdly destructive if he had coffee. This is evidence of that."

"True. I thought this would tire him out but we've been doing it for half an hour and he's still going. To be honest I kind of want this to carry on all day because it's damn entertaining."

"You might want it to finish before you get tired because otherwise he will probably keep you up all night."

"Oh trust me I'm counting on him keeping me up all night. Sex is amazing normally; can you imagine what it'll be like with him this way?"

"I'm going to go ahead and say: no I can't imagine that and I don't want to."

"Shen can. Can't you Shen?"

"Yep. Every Friday is sex after coffee."

"And doesn't Akali enjoy it?"

"Very much so."

"Yes well let's stop talking about this. I've been asked by my boss to stop Zoh but I have no spell for this so if you could do something I would appreciate it." The summoner asked with full knowledge I had to help.

"If you tell me your name I might have a way to make him stop."

"It's Sam."

"Okay good. Hey Zoh!"

"What?"

"The summoners name is Sam."

Zoh stopped swimming instantly and shot up to his feet.

"Argh! You sir just made me lose a bet!"

"Sorry if my name isn't weird like yours."

"That is a low blow if ever I heard one!"

Zoh pulled two blocks of explosives from his belt and attached them to the underside of his boots.

"I'll see you in that direction!" He exclaimed while pointing in the direction of the main spire of the League building. A second later he pulled out a detonator and sent himself flying over the entire building. The only effect the explosion had on me was to cloud my vision slightly. When the dust cleared I realised that Shen and Sam were not so lucky as they were both covered in soot. Sam tried to clear it off but Shen was not bothered by it in the slightest and stood proud with his hands on his hips.

"This tastes terrible. I'm going to leave now but if you get a chance please tell Zoh to make his explosives taste less smoky."

"Will do Shen."

He waved then teleported away. I looked back at Sam who was now miraculously clean.

"Cleanse is so much more useful outside of matches."

"I've never used it so as far as I'm concerned it's only useful outside of matches."

"I don't think you ever will. Goodbye and good luck with caffeinated Zoh."

He clicked his fingers and was gone with the usual flash of blue. A second later Zoh dug up to the surface from underground next to me.

"It feels good to make a mineshaft under a large building!"

I heard the sound of something collapsing far underground causing Zoh to stop moving completely.

"The tunnel may have collapsed!"

He kicked the ground next to where he tunnelled up from and the entire thing fell in on itself, filling up the hole for the most part. A moment later he was out of his armour and kissing me. I enjoyed it a lot for the few seconds that it lasted before he pulled away suddenly.

"Lovely! We should do that more often! I wonder how cold space is right now!"

He pulled a jetpack out of the hole he had dug and put it on. Before I could stop him he was flying up at incredible speed.

"I'm never going to get a word in with him like this."

I sat down on a nearby bench and waited for him to come back down. A few minutes later he fell back to the ground fast enough to make a small crater. Thankfully he was in his armour so I was pretty sure he was okay. I was proven correct when he flung up to his feet and removed his armour.

"Not much air up there! I wouldn't recommend it!"

"How far did you go before you realised-"

"What's the closest planet to this one?"

"Sonaris I think."

"Yeah well I got there then realised there was no air so I held my breath and came back!"

"When did you put your armour on?"

"In the clouds!"

"Helpful."

"I know! If I do say so myself I am being wonderfully helpful right now!"

"I was being sarcastic."

"Were you… oh shit…" He yawned before falling flat on his face. A few seconds of snoring later he pushed himself up wearily.

"Oh… what happened?"

"You had a lot of coffee and broke a lot of stuff."

"Ah yes I remember now… why didn't you stop me?"

"How would I?"

"Good point. Shall we go have lunch? I'm a bit hungry."

"Yeah sure. Someone else will clean this up."

A few hours later (13:00):

We walked down the streets of Piltover in a way that was the absolute opposite to the first time we were there. Instead of running and occasionally knocking someone out we casually strolled through the same streets we went down the first time. We got about half way through the city before someone decided we would be good people to rob. I was pretty sure it was a man but it also looked quite womanly. Even with a gun pointed towards me the only thing I could think of was what the hell it was.

"Give me everything you've got or foxy here gets it!"

"Oh look you have a pistol. I'm so afraid."

"Did you not hear what I said?"

"Yes I heard you. Let's see what I have with me… hmm…"

Zoh rummaged through his pockets and pulled out about a kilo of explosives and a detonator. The criminal was a few metres from us but Zoh managed to throw the explosives onto the gun.

"There you go. Enough explosives to destroy you, me, that building, those mountains over there… you get the idea."

"What the hell is wrong with you?" It shouted while trying to shake the explosives off the gun, to no avail.

"A lot. Clearly. Run off now before I decide to send you on a trip to space. Well, the bits of you anyway."

"Wait before you go can you tell me if you're a man or a woman? I really can't tell." I asked as it frantically attempted to get rid of the explosives.

"I'm a woman you freak!"

"Whoa that's not very polite. You apologise to Ahri right this instant."

The woman finally threw the gun away and ran off down one of the many alleyways of lower Piltover. Zoh chuckled and flipped the switch on the detonator, creating an explosion about the size of a small cat. I looked at him and tapped his arm:

"Were you as confused as I was?"

"About her-"

"Yeah."

"Yes I was. I'm glad you asked because it was really starting to confuse me."

"The weirdest part was that her voice was gender-neutral as well."

"Yeah. For me the worst part was that she didn't recognise us."

"I didn't really mind. She's not the kind of person I want listening to my music or watching any of my matches." I added as we started walking again.

"What kind of person do you think listens to or watches you? For me I can only ever imagine people who watch my matches being gents in three-piece suits with monocles and top hats."

"Trust me I have no illusions on this matter. The main group of people who follow what I do are single men who really, really need girlfriends."

"That can't be a good feeling."

"It's not. If I didn't have you I would probably be more comfortable with it."

"Why's that?"

"If you weren't around then I'd probably take advantage of all the attention a lot more."

"I can guess what you mean by 'take advantage' of the attention but I wish I couldn't."

"It doesn't really matter because I do have you."

"I am really feeling like a possession right now."

"You basically are. But that's a good thing because it means we both have to put in way less effort."

"I'm not sure what your thought process here is but I'm just going to accept it."

"If you tried it would just confuse you."

"Clearly something is wrong when you confuse someone me of all people."

"I bet you get confused by everything that isn't a part of science."

"No just maths sometimes. Seriously, fuck maths."

"Wow this must be serious. You swore."

"I'm not even that bad at maths but seriously, fuck maths."

"Yeah I get the idea."

"Oh yeah I've told you about this five times already."

"Every time we get talking about what annoys you we end up in this conversation."

"Sorry."

"I don't mind. To be honest I'll probably use it against you at some point."

"Yay. One more thing you can use against me."

"I'll use it soon so that you don't have to worry about it for long."

"How about you use it now and I'll take my shirt off so you can gawk at me for a while?"

"Yeah I'm okay with that. Go ahead."

"Well I wasn't serious but now… fine. I might as well."

He took off his jacket then his shirt. I stared for a few seconds then managed to look up to his face.

"I'm so glad you're not a stereotypical scientist. I would still love you, but I don't think we would have sex as much."

"That's a bit shallow isn't it?"

"Yeah."

"Okay."

"I'll probably get over it."

"You probably won't."

I went back to staring at his muscles when I realised that he should have had scars yet I could see none.

"How come it looks like you have never been hurt in the slightest yet I know you've been shot multiple times?"

"You never noticed this before?"

"No. Somehow I missed it."

"Well I used to have scars all over but when I got told I was supposed to marry Lita I had to get rid of them. The worst part is that I had a really nice one which looked like a smiley face on my side from an especially large explosion."

"How many did you have?"

"I stopped counting at twenty."

"Now I will say that I'm happy you got rid of them. One or two is okay but any more than that and I'm out."

"I'm glad you're joking."

"Yeah… joking…"

We both looked at each other and laughed a bit. With a smile still on my face I patted his stomach to get his attention.

"Are you really okay walking around without a shirt on?"

"I haven't exactly got a body worth be self-conscious about."

"I know but it's like if I walked around town in a bikini. It's not normal. The only real difference is your wearing trousers instead of swimming trunks or something."

"You sure about that?"

I looked down at his legs to find that he was indeed in a pair of blue swimming trunks that hung loosely down to just above his knees. In addition he had found time to put on some sandals and when I looked up he was wearing sunglasses.

"Shen taught me in exchange for showing him the end of the universe and letting him use it when he wants to."

"… You let Shen go to the end of the universe…"

"I know, it's stupid. But I learned how to change clothes incredibly quickly so in my books this was a success."

"So it's a success for you but for the universe as a whole I can't see this going well."

"He promised to be careful. As I have said before, he's a ninja so he wouldn't lie."

"Well when the universe collapses in on itself you know who to blame."

"I really doubt it will be that bad. Apparently he's just going to use it to read every good book ever written."

"Wow. That is literally hell for me."

"Yeah… not the reading type, are you?"

"Definitely not. Especially after we saw that prototype television last time we were in Piltover."

"Pff, I created those ages ago. And mine were better."

"You say that about everything they make here."

"That's because it's true. I mean come one their dark matter generator was so much worse than mine! What's the point when the dark matter you make isn't explosive?"

"Normal science I guess."

"Normal science is for nerds."

"You were that exact thing for a while."

"I know but now I'm a walking gun show."

"That doesn't change the fact that you were a normal scientist for a while."

"Ah but you see, I have a way to change that."

"How?"

"Just give this muscle a feel." He joked while holding his arm out for me to grab. I felt it would be rude not to so I did as he asked. A few seconds later I realised I should probably stop.

"How long was I doing that for?"

"We were on a different street when you started."

"Oh… what were we talking about before?"

"Nothing important."

"Oh well good because I remember this street. The next left should take us out of the city."

"That might be your memory, or it could be that you see that road-sign saying 'Exit to mountains'."

"I'm not that observant Zoh."

"Yeah because you spend all your time looking at me. Like at the pool a few days ago."

"Choose your words carefully Zoh. Whatever comes out of that damn mouth of yours could be the difference between a lot of fire and very little."

"I'm trying to think of something which won't annoy you but I'm struggling to find anything relevant. So I'll just say I love you and hope that works."

"Kind of. I still want to set fire to something but not really you."

"Good because yesterday I broke the technology in my suit that stops the fire from getting to me and for the life of me I have no idea how to treat burn wounds."

"Of all the things you could not know, that is possibly the worst thing possible considering you live with me."

"I don't live with you, we live together."

"Same difference."

"Not really."

"Yes really."

"We are really bad at arguing when I think about it. All the reasons we have for arguing are stupid and we never use points or evidence."

"That's the fun of it though. If we were any good they might become actual arguments where I'm not just trying to wind you up for fun."

"You were much less of an arsehole when you were charmed."

"I know. That's the fun of it. And the best part is, you won't be charming me again anytime soon."

"We both know full well I could. We're not within the magic-blocking aura of the League and we're also about to leave Piltover so no-one would notice for a while. You've also told me before that you have little to no concept of how magic works so any chance of you making your own magic blocker is… non-existent really."

"All those things may be true; however I am still confident you won't charm me."

"I'll do it right now if you want me to."

"I don't want you to. Still think you can do it?"

"Well, no but-"

"Exactly."

"For once I respect your rights and immediately you act like a bigger arse than normal."

"I'm not going to get into a conversation about this so I'll silence you in the best way I know how."

A moment later he stopped me in my tracks with a kiss. I practically melted into his arms, even my tails failing to keep themselves up. Thankfully Zoh held me up by my arm-pits until he pulled away and moved his hands down to my waist.

"I was just starting to get annoyed at you then you do that and all is forgiven."

"How about we agree to keep this journey positive. I see it as a good chance to do it all over the way it should have happened."

"I'd like to see it that way too but all it has achieved so far was to make me feel bad about what I did to you."

"Don't feel bad about it. As I have always said, you had no real control over what you did. And, unsurprisingly, I would prefer things played out the way they did than you just killing me on first sight."

"I'm quite happy with how things have gone so far as well. I've got an easy job, a nice room and a wonderful boyfriend. Even if that last one took way longer to get than it should have."

"I feel like we waited just long enough."

"It wasn't so much that 'we' waited. You took ages to realise the obvious and I had to wait for you."

"Just be happy that we got to this point eventually."

"Trust me, I am. The amount of fun stuff we've done has more than made up for the wait."

We got back to walking and a few seconds later were through the gate. The guards at each side of the gate gave us a bit of an odd stare but I understood why. Zoh was still in his swimming trunks, sandals and sunglasses while I was just looking like my normal self. He noticed their stares as well and decided the best thing he could do was to looked back and salute them as we walked. To my surprise they saluted back and one of them even spoke up:

"Good to see you sir. I won a hundred gold from a bet on one of your matches."

"Glad to know I'm helping some people."

They all let their arms drop and Zoh turned back to face forward. I looked at him with a puzzled face.

"How do they know you?"

"Probably from that interview at the awards ceremony."

"Oh yeah. Or it could have been from the various times we have been pestered by that guy from the Journal of Justice."

"Nah that's more of a local thing. It's mainly made for summoners and champions from what Nocturne has told me."

"Speaking of which how is it going for him and Morgana?"

"Very well apparently. Just recently they went on a day trip to Noxus to cause some pain and suffering."

"…"

"They are not nice people… uh… almost people… what would you even call Nocturne?"

"A nightmare monster thing."

"I'm not too sure about that. I mean, he was clearly humanoid at one point."

"Not anymore though. We can ask him when we go back."

"You can do it."

"Hell no he's your friend. Plus, I'm content with calling him a nightmare monster thing. It's you who has the problem with it."

"Fine. But next time you ask me to do something you can do it yourself."

"We'll see about that. I'm sure all it will take is some… 'convincing'."

"Don't be too sure of that. You must remember that when I want to I can be really quite stubborn."

"And I can be really quite persuasive."

"Yeah, yeah whatever. We'll see who's right when the time comes."

We continued walking for a while until we were once again met by the near-vertical cliffs of the mountains to the west of Piltover. I looked up at the snow-capped peaks and, like before, came to the conclusion that climbing them was not the greatest of ideas. The path through was still there and after last time I was not so scared of walking down it however the thought of coming into contact with Shaco again put a few doubts in my mind. Since last time we met I had learned that he was un-predictable and, in general, not overly pleasant to be around.

"Zoh do you think we could find another way through these mountains instead of going down that path again?"

"Yeah obviously. Why?"

"I don't want to bump into Shaco again. That guy gives me the creeps."

"Okay then we'll go the easy way through."

Zoh got his armour on and put a small device on the side of the mountain in front of us. It started to spin and gain speed rapidly until a portal opened up in front of it with a view to the other side.

"Ladies first." He calmly declared while motioning for me to walk through.

"How come we didn't do this last time?"

"I couldn't think up any proper ways through because I was too busy trying to keep the dirty thoughts I was having about you out of my head."

"You aren't honestly telling me that you couldn't think of this because you were thinking about me."

"That's exactly what I'm telling you. I can only concentrate on one thing at a time and unfortunately that was you last time we were here."

"Oh well… nice. I hope you lived out all those dirty thoughts at some point."

"Most of them."

I stepped through the portal then looked back to the other side for Zoh. He was staring off into the distance at a relatively small mountain overlooking Piltover. A few moments later he pulled out a pair of binoculars and looked at it. Something must have been very wrong as he froze up and dropped the binoculars.

"Zoh what's wrong?"

"I… I… we have to go. Now."

He walked through the portal just before it close up. A second later he grabbed my hand and started fast-walking in the direction of the League, pulling me behind him.

"Zoh what the hell did you see?"

"Something very, very bad for everyone. I'm sure Lita won't use it soon but we are going to have to fast-track the rest of this journey."

"Will you just stop for a second and tell me what you saw?"

He stopped and turned to face me.

"She has a nuclear weapon Ahri. That thing could wipe Piltover off the face of the planet."

"I thought you said you made those. Can't you just turn it off or something?"

"No, I can't. I only ever made a prototype which means they found someone to make a working version."

"So what? You can still get rid of it right?"

"I would need some time to look at it which I imagine Lita won't give me."

"So we'll get a summoner to help. Sam would probably help us."

"That's why I would like to get back as soon as possible."

"If you must get back so quickly then let's jog there."

We started jogging towards the League. I broke into a skip pretty quickly but Zoh continued his boring jog, still wearing his armour.

A while later we had a field of wheat to one side and a small river to the other. He was still acting way too serious so I tried a few things to cheer him up:

"I think you should skip with me."

"Sorry but I'm not a six year old girl."

"You act like one." I joked, making sure it didn't sound mean.

"Rude." He stated, briefly showing a smile.

"Please do lighten up a bit. Soon Lita will be gone and we will be able to do stuff without fear of her being annoying."

"What's the chance someone else comes in to take her place?"

"Not very high in my opinion. At least, not someone who we won't be able to deal with quickly."

"I don't know about that. There are a few people from my planet who I would say are candidates."

"But they won't be able to get here if this all works."

"When does anything ever work exactly as we plan?"

"Stop being such a pessimist." I laughed before pushing him into the field. As he fell his armour disappeared leaving him to fall onto his back.

"I should report you for abuse."

"I should report you. Plus, you can't tell anyone from down there."

"And you can't tell anyone from in that river."

"What-"

He jumped up and over to me. A second later we were floating in the water and smiling at each other. After a second I broke into a giggle and Zoh chuckled a bit. While we were getting out I tapped him on the shoulder and spoke up:

"Let's hope this isn't linked to the sewer."

"I don't want to think about it."

We pulled ourselves out and got back to the path. Zoh got hold of my hand and we continued jogging along. The path curved up a hill and eventually we got to the top of it. There was a crevice in front of us but the other side was much taller than the side we were on. Even so I could still see the huge spire of the League building over it. It must have been a few miles away but I could just about see someone throwing someone else off the top of it. Zoh must have noticed it as well as he pointed and laughed.

"I guess Zed and Jax are still doing that."

"Whoever's on top there is winning."

"Like hell they are. I threw Zed off of mount Gargantuan a few days ago."

"When did you do that?"

"Remember when I went for a break mid-way through sex?"

"You took a break from sex for that?"

"No I went to have a drink with Gragas then got teleported there by Zed who I proceeded to out-play."

"Really? Well done."

"Yeah. The actual guy isn't as good as Faker."

"Who's that?"

"… You don't know Faker?"

"No. Is he a champion or something?"

"I think I love you a little less for that."

"That's going a bit far don't you think?"

"Not even. Later on we are going to watch some of his matches and you will realise how stupid you're being right now."

"Is he really that amazing?"

"Yes. I am deadly serious."

"Okay fine."

We wandered down the crevice then up the other side. By the time we got to the top I was slightly tired so I leaned on Zoh a bit more than usual. He gave me a kiss on my forehead then started on his way to the massive building.

"Hey Zoh guess what."

"What?"

"I can see our house from here."

"Oh yeah I see it too."

He looked around a bit and I followed his gaze to the figure of a man being chased by a horde of cows in the distance.

"I wonder what that guy did to piss off those cows."

"I think it would be best if we don't wonder about it Ahri."

"Instead of wondering about it we're going to go find out ourselves."

"There's a nuke next to Piltover and you want to find out what's pissed off some cows?"

"Yeah."

"You are the best and worst boss ever."

"It would be no fun if I was just a good boss."

"It would be for me."

"I don't really care about how much fun you're having at the moment."

"I love you too."

I dragged him by his hand in the direction of the man and the cows. A while later we got within view distance and, surprisingly, I realised it Yasuo who was being chased. He saw us and threw a tornado in the direction of the cows, suspending them all in the air before jogging over to us and waving.

"Hello you two. How's it going?"

"Fine. Everything seems to be going well for you too." I replied.

"Yes well Lux said she would stop arguing with me about my work if I agreed to do some housework for her. Apparently the Crownguard family own cows but I think she just got them to make my life difficult."

"So you argue about work and housework. I'm noticing a theme here." Zoh joked.

"You haven't heard the half of it. We also argue about her parents, kids and what to do on the weekend."

"Hold on a second, you argue about kids?"

"Yeah. I think they are annoying as fuck and, at this point in my life, completely un-necessary. She disagrees."

"I'll be honest, from everything you argue about you two seem like a dis-functional couple."

"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard!"

"I'm just saying those are a lot of the things couples argue about."

"Yeah but she's so damn annoying! Look what she's making me do just to shut her up for a few minutes, then take into consideration that I would say this is worth it!"

"Look Yasuo, just calm down. I'm not suggesting anything, Ahri has barely said anything. I'm just pointing out a fact."

"I don't want to hear any of it. The worst part is you're not the only person who's said that. Garen brought it up as well. He may have been drunk at the time but apparently 'If you bang Lux I'll punch you then buy you a beer'. It sounds like a fun start to a night of far too much booze but it's definitely not worth it."

"Oh you can't say in all honesty that you don't find Lux attractive. Any straight guy would admit that. Even me."

"Dude, your girlfriend is right there."

"Oh she doesn't mind do you? Hell you probably agree with me."

"Lux? Yeah she is. I would anyway."

"… You would?"

"Yeah. I'm an open minded person so it could be a fun experience."

"… Well… this is pleasant news."

The cows dropped back down from the sky and started picking themselves up. Yasuo looked quite depressed by the sounds of them dropping and sighed.

"Sounds like I've got to get back to work. See you two at tea-time."

"Goodbye Yasuo. And good luck."

"Bye." I added just before we started walking towards the League building.

A few minutes later we were just a few metres from the gates and I felt a strange chill all over. Zoh wrapped his right arm around me then rubbed my arm a bit to warm me up slightly. When we walked through the massive doorway I immediately found the source of the chill. Brand had about fifty electric fans going at full blast around him. I wasn't in a mood to question it so I just continued walking until Zoh stopped suddenly and Sam walked up to us.

"Hey summoner I have a huge question to ask you."

"No, carrots don't help your vision."

"That wasn't what I was going to ask. The real question is, do you know how to disarm a bomb using magic?"

"Yeah I can just teleport it to the void."

"Okay good. I need you to teleport me to a hill outside Piltover. Lita is there with a bomb that could destroy the entire city."

"Why would she do that?"

"She's a crazy bitch."

"Good point. Let's go."

We teleported onto the hill overlooking Piltover and found Lita sitting on the nuclear bomb, whistling away.

"Ah Zoh good to see you. And you brought friends, how nice. Although I'm not sure how much help they will be."

Sam muttered a spell but unfortunately nothing happened. He seemed frustrated and tried again, only for nothing to happen. Again.

"And that is why. You didn't really think I would try this without a magic-blocker did you? I'm not stupid Zoh."

Zoh took a step towards her and instantly she was holding a detonator with her thumb pressed lightly against the button.

"One more step and this place becomes a crater."

"Lita don't do this. The people in that city are, for the most part, innocent."

"I don't intend to do anything to them. However I will if you don't come back with me."

"Please, can't you just let me stay here and you can go home? The emperor is dead so you owe no-one your allegiance."

"This isn't for the emperor anymore. This is for me. Did you ever consider that maybe I would like to be married to a genius who looks like a body-builder?"

"No I-"

"Exactly! My entire life has been spent serving the empire or sitting in your shadow. For once I would like to do something for myself and be noticed by someone. Every time I have ever done anything you have done something better. That's going to end when I'm by your side for every public event."

"… I've just had a flash of genius." Zoh mumbled.

"You what?"

"Nothing Lita. I'll just say my goodbyes."

"Make it quick."

Zoh turned and looked at me.

"Looks like this is where we part ways."

"Zoh there has to be something we can do..."

"Unfortunately not. We may see each other again someday but for now, goodbye."

With tears welling up in my eyes I grabbed his head and pulled Zoh into a kiss. Quite some time later he pulled away but I held him close in a hug.

He whispered something into my human ear that stopped the tears almost immediately. A second later I let him go and he winked at me. Zoh then turned to Lita and walked up to her.

"Oh yeah and say goodbye to everyone for me. Especially Shen."

"I will."

Lita stood up from the bomb and pressed something. In a flash they were gone so Sam and I were alone on top of the mountain. The bomb disappeared soon after so I turned to look at Sam.

"So we just lost two champions and another one is really sad. I'm going to get demoted at this rate. What did Zoh whisper to you?"

"Something very, very interesting."

I'm just going to end it there because it's a good cliff-hanger.

So then you may think that was the big event I have been talking about for a while. You would be wrong. The actual event is that this is not just the end of the chapter. This is the end of the season! Sorta!

So here's what's happening: some very important tests are coming up soon for me so most of my time is going to be spent revising for said tests. That means that I won't be able to write nearly as much of this so it being a weekly thing would be bad as the chapters would only be a few thousand words long. So I was left with a choice: make the serious a fortnightly thing or something similar, make the chapters shorter or let the chapters be the same length and be released randomly. I decided to do the last one.

This means that I will still release chapters at the same length however there will no longer be a schedule until late June-ish. So regular stuff will continue then.

As you may have guessed, this means that some chapters may take a few weeks to release and some may only take one. It all depends on the amount of time I have to spend revising.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I have to put these tests above all else.

Anyway onto the normal notes.

Azzuk I've put the body-switch idea on my list of events so expect to see it come up at some point soon. I'll make sure to give you credit in both notes when I use it.

Also, I had already planned for an entire chapter of hyper Shen and hyper Zoh doing stuff along with a chapter of drunken Shen and drunken Zoh however I didn't think about putting them in one room. I'll think of how to use it. Thanks.

Not really much else to say so… bye all.

I'll see you whenever the next chapter is released.

Goodbye.
