Chapter 3:
The sun was still up in the sky on the Legacy as everyone in town went back inside their homes before it got dark. Will and Chloe ran up from the street by the East end of the town. They had both looked all around that area of town and asked everyone there if anyone had seen him. Moses and Shirley returned from their search in Falling Water. Shirley investigated the beach while Moses took a look around the woody areas and the spring. And Grune and Norma had searched the entire rest of the city. The fountain, graveyard, and lighthouse.
No luck. For any of them.
"Did any of you find them?" Chloe asked the others out of breath when they all met in frount of the bakery. Her cheeks were red and she was a bit sweaty. Everyone else shook their heads negatively.
"Damn, those two can hide!" exclaimed Moses scowling and kicking at the dirt road. "We've been lookin' all day! They gotta be playin' some kind of trick on us!"
"Why would Senel or Jay want to do something like that?" Shirley asked.
"I don't know! Why else haven't we been able to find them!?" Moses looked at the others for reinforcement. Norma gave a slight smile failing to hide an ounce of worry. "Maybe they're okay. I mean, this is JJ were talking about. I don't know about Senny, but come on!"
"What is that suppost to mean, Norma?" asked Shirley calmly.
"Well, think about it, Shirl. If they were both out there somewhere together, they should both be fine, right? But if Senny were out there alone he'd probably try to go play tag with a dragon or something."
Will put his hand on his fourhead showing his frustration. "Norma, were all worried about them, but even if they were separated I'm sure Senel would have enough intelligence not to do something like that."
"But Will, I thought you said Senel wouldn't know brains if they bit em' on his a--!!"
"Red!!" Norma interrupted Moses' remark quickly.
"What?" asked Moses confused.
"Right now we need to focus on where else they could be." Chloe added frowning at Moses. "We should find them before they get hurt."
"But where else should we look?" Moses asked.
"We've searched all around Werites Beacon," Will said. "Perhaps they could be in the Quite Lands or a bit farther off from town."
"Oh yeah, we haven't looked in the Quite Lands! We should totally check with Nessy!"
"Charge!"
Norma and Grune smiled happily after relizing their next destination. "Lets hurry up and find them before something happens." Everyone folowed Chloes comand and began walking towards the lighthouse. Ignoring Norma and Grune.
"Hey! Guys, that's not funny!" Norma ran to catch up with them while Grune skipped off with the others.
"Oh! Everyone is having so much fun!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Damn it. . ." Senel groaned as he sat with his legs huddled close to his chest in the corned of the small room. It was getting very cold and night had set in.
"It was so hot about an hour ago! How did it get this cold so quick?" asked Senel as Jay breathed warm air into his cold hands across from the shed.
"Maybe it was from all the closed off space. There's not a lot of room in here which is why we though it was so hot. It was from all that discomfort. Now we see how wrong we were."
Senel's teeth chattered silently in his mouth. It had been an exact day they were stuck in the shed and no one had any idea they were in there. It made Senel and Jay both feel so isignifigant and worthless. Like nobody was even looking for them. Was everyone looking for them? How could they not have looked here? They both asked their selves this question over and over again.
Senel eyed the knob on the door again. It was all that damn door knobs fault!
Why did you have to be born a lockable door!? Senel asked himself. It would have made everyones life so much easier if you--WAIT A MINUTE! Im talking to a door knob! Senel shook his head to get a grip on his reality. He looked up from the door and saw Jay staring at the pile of brush and mess in the occupied space in the shed. "Jay?" Senel said suddenly.
"What?"
"Did you notice that window up there on the wall before?" Senel pointed up above Jays head where a small rectangular window was positioned. Jay turned his head to see where Senel's finger was indicating. "Yes. I saw that the first day we got locked in here. What about. . ." Jay looked over and saw Senel smiling at him. He knew exactly what he wanted to do. "NO!!! No way! I know what you're thinking! I know that look! No way!" Senel got up to his feet. "Oh come on, Jay! You do want to get out of here don't you?" Jay couldn't argue with him there. They had been there for a day! Even Jay was begging to grow hungry and his feeling of suffication was worsening. But how did Senel expect him, either of them, to fit throught a window that size!?
"Come on, Jay. This is one of our last shots. We'll shoot for it. Deal?" Senel held out a fist between he and Jay and waited for him to respond.
Is he really serious? Does he really think this will work? Jay thought silently. "Well, it is an even chance anyways. Fine." Jay stuck his fist in with Senel's and did a quick game of Rock-Paper-Scissors.
"SHOOT!" they both called as Senel threw out a rock and Jay a . . .pair of scissors.
"N-no way!" Jay quickly pulled back his hand as Senel laughed at Jay's loss. "Even if I manage to get up there, how do you expect me to get through that thing!?" Senel stoped laughing but continued to smile as Jay looked at him anxiously. "Don't worry that much, Jay. All we have to do is stack up a few heavy boxes, you climb up, and. . .uh. . .we hope you don't fall."
". . .Why don't you do it?"
"Well, I won. And you got a tiny little ass. You'll fit through better!"
Jay slumpt his shoulders and drooped his head down. "You're not going to let me back out of this, are you?"
"Nope. Now help me start stacking."
After they had gotten the boxes up high enough to reach the window Senel tested the immensity of them so Jay could climb up on top of them. He kicked them a couple of times as Jay stood aside with his arms crossed watching Senel.
"Lets hurry up, its getting colder." Jay said. Senel held out his hands for Jay to climb upon and helped him onto the boxes. They wobbled under his feet as Senel held onto Jay's hand and waist.
"You up?"
"Yeah." Jay answered, his feet still a bit unstable.
"Ok. Just grab onto the window and beat it as hard as you can! Try using the tip of your fists to smash into the glass and--"
"Senel. . ."
"What?"
"You know it opens, right?"
". . . Oh. Okay then."
Jay kept up the window as Senel boosted him up higher to the opening. He manadged to get his head and arms through the hole, but as his waist slid farther out, he stopped.
"Uh oh. . ." Senel said fearfully. Jay's face became full of apprehension. "What? What's going on?"
"No-nothing. Your probably just hung on a rusty nail. Hang on a sec'."
Jay heard rattling and banging going on behind him. Senel was mumbling nervously from the other side of the window while Jay hang there confused.
"Am I stuck?" Jay questioned calmly. Senel didn't answere. "Im going to die here, aren't I?"
"No! I just need to push harder."
"What are you doing?"
"Just hang on. This may hurt. . . a lot." Senel took as many steeps back as he could. Then he charged at where Jay hang and rammed into him hard. Jay felt pain suddenly rush through his body. He screamed loud as Senel fell on the floor behind him with a clunk.
"DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM GONNA KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"JAY!!! Calm down Jay! Stop flopping around!!!" Jays body fell limp as Senel grabbed one of his legs to calm him down.
"I. . . am going . . . to kill you. . . so very slowly." Jay wheezed leisurely between breaths.
"Okay, looks you're not going out that way. I'll try to pull you back out! Stay still!!!"
Senel took hold of Jay's other leg and got ready for a long tug. "I can see the sun going down." Jay said in a settled manner. "Allright, here we go." Senel tensly stated as he began to pull hard on Jay's legs. Again, this caused Jay pain. He screamed as Senel yanked on his legs in effort to get him out. Jay budged just a bit befor he began to beg Senel to stop.
"Senel! Please stop for just one minute!"
"Why!? You're almost out! You just moved!"
"And I apreciate what you're doing so much. But, maybe I can take it from here." Jay carefully pulled his arms through the small window and slowly inched his feet down to the stack of boxes. When he couldn't get down low enough to stand on the boxes, Senel lowered him down by holding on to his arm until Jay's feet were planted firly on level ground. As soon as jay was on the ground, he backed up against the wall and slid down weakly to the floor to rest.
Jay let out an agonized groan as Senel eased next to him.
"Are you okay? You look . . .pale."
Jay lifted up the end of his shirt to inspect his injuries. "You turned me into Saturn!" he shouted as he noticed the red marks around his stomach.
"I guess even you were two big to go through."
"Its hard to imagine what would have happened if you had to climb up there." Jay smiled dimly. Both he and Jay laughed as darkness filtered into the room. The second night had come, and still not one person knew they were still there in town.

It was beginning to get dark in the Quite Lands. Everyone searched together at the beach and the elevator. They couldn't find the two boys.
The party decided to split up again and search three of the monuments. Afterwards, they would all meet up at the Earth monument to search together. If they didn't find them, they decided to go back home and get some rest to search the next day.
Shirley and Will arrived at the Fire monument around twilights fall. It was the same as always. Hot. Very hot. Shirley was a little surprised at the sudden change of weather, but Will stayed calm as they both made their way into the the monument.
"Where should we start looking first?" Shirley asked beginning to sweat. Will looked around the room in the monument and discovered it empty. "There not here. Lets keep looking." Shirley nodded and walked along with Will to the next room where it was just as hot.
"Should we call for them or something? They may be hurt or. . .you know."
"That's exactly why we need to hurry. If they aren't in any of the monuments down here than we have a serious problem."
Shirley's face became coated with concern. "A serious problem!? What do you mean?"
Will and Shirley both stopped walking as Will explained the situation.
"First of all, if they are above ground we don't have any way to find them now because of night setting in. And it would make matters worse if they were separated and one of them were hurt."
"What about the second of all?" Shirley questioned wringing her hands together.
"Well, perhaps it would be better not to think about that now," Will started walking again as Shriley followed. "But the reason we may not have found them yet may be because they're either both terrible injured or dead." Will said this so calmly Shirley nearly fell over. "Dead!? B-but they're both stronger than that!"
"Right. That's why we shouldn't be thinking like that. Now lets get moving so we don't have to."
Shirley and Will both ran the rest of the way throughout the Fire Monument in search of Senel and Jay.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"It is so damn cold here! Lets hurry up and find Senny and JJ so we can get the hell out of here!"
Norma was yelling annoyingly as she and Moses hiked inside the Ice Monument. "Would you stop complainin', Bubbles!? We just got here and already you're whinin' like a baby!" Norma began to protest but was cut off by the roar of a blue dragon caked with frost and ice. "Damn! This is just what we need!" Moses whipped out his spear and readied an attack. Norma followed and took out her baton.
"Lets get this over with, Red!" Norma exclaimed as the dragon sauntered closer to them.
"Get outa our way!" Moses threw a spear at the dragon head as Norma began to cast a fire spell. It etched closer while Moses continued to toss spears. The dragon threw back its head and took in a deep breath. Preparing to attack. Moses looked over to Norma who was just beginning to fire and attack.
"Explosion!!!" she shouted as balls of fire fell from overhead and hit the beast with a tremendous impact.
The blows left it dizzy and confused, just perfect for an ending blow.
"Go Red! Get it while its down!!!" Norma called to Moses as the dragon fell to the ground roaring.
"RIGHT!!!" Moses grabbed another spear and charged toward the monster quickly before it began to get back up. Just before the dragon fully regained scence, Moses plunged his spear into the neck of the dragon and drug it up toward the head. The dragon let out a final roar as blood seaped from its mouth and neck wound. It fell again to the ground with a loud thud which rattled the ground with its fource, almost knocking Norma and Moses down with it. "WHOO! We won!" Moses cheered putting his extra spear back inside its case. Norma gave a big sigh of releif as she also stashed her weapon.
"I forgot how tough it is to fight with just two people around." she said recalling the time she and Senel had fought together a while back.
"Is it dead?" Moses asked to no one directly. Norma nonchalantly walked over to the fallen monster and kicked it. Moses stood bewildered as Norma shrugged. "So you kick it? YOU KICK IT!?"
"Well, what would you have done?"
"That's. . ." Moses exhaled loudly and scratched his head. "Lets just keep goin'. We gotta meet up with the others soon."
Norma nodded and followed after him past the dead beast and about the monument.

Now, along the Lightning Monument, Chloe and Grune looked for the missing members of the group as thundered growled along the skies. One amazingly strong bolt jolted along the ceiling of the monument and landed just in front of Chloe's feet.
"EEEK!!!!" Chloe jumped backwards on her feet and feel to the ground. She shook a few seconds until returning to her feet. Grune stared at her with a pokerfaced expression.
She smiled at extremely the wrong time as Chloe blushed from the fall. "Chloe, did you have a fun trip!?"
"Wh-what!?"
"Well, you did fall. I was just wondering if you had a good time. Did you?"
Chloe stared at the broken woman. Outside she tried to be as kind as she could. But on the inside, she was practically screaming at her to get a grip on the situation.
Just what the hell is you're problem, lady!? Did you hit you're head that day we found you in the Man Eating Ruins!? Damn!!!! You are so fuckin' retarded!!!!!!!!
"Well. Thank you for your concern, Grune. Now, where do you think Coolidge and Jay could be?"
Grune put her finger to her cheek to ponder the apparently too hard for her question. "Oh, I know! Maybe they went to go get some cake! Or perhaps their both at their homes sleeping like cute little babies!"
". . .What?"
"Ooo! Suppose they're planning us a party!!! A SURPRISE PARTY!!!! YAAAAAY!!!!"
Chloe looked at Grune bewilderingly as Grune skipped off merrily deeper into the Lightning Monument.
"Uh, Grune?" Chloe asked catching up to her. Grune stopped skipping and waited for Chloe to start walking beside her. "Just say we don't find Coolidge and Jay. Do you think it would have been a mistake that I never. . .um. . .well. . ."
"Are you still in love with Senel, Chloe?" Grune asked again smiling out into space. Chloe immediately blushed after this comment. "What! Well. . ."
"When we find them, you should really tell him how you feel. Everyone thinks you two would make a good couple. You really need to go for it!"
"But, what if he refuses? How will I see him as a friend again?"
"Senel's a very kind and thoughtful boy. I'm sure he would have a very good reason if he didn't love you in that way. Though I don't see why anyone wouldn't just absolutely adore you, Chloe!"
"Grune! . . .Thank you. You actually say some clever things every now and then." Grune giggled and continued to walk ahead as Chloe stopped again. She bowed her head down and stared at her shoes.
"I promise this. For you, Grune. If. . .when we find them, I will tell Coolidge everything. No matter what!"
She then raised her head and ran to catch up with Grune.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Did anyone find them!?" Norma asked quickly as she saw the other four in front of the Earth Monument as she and Moses met up to the rest of the group.
"No! We haven't seen them anywhere!" Shirley said in her annoying, squeaky voice. Moses shook his head in disapproval. "There is no damn way those two could have got beaten' up! Not together! Their both way too hyperactive!"
"Perhaps their both inside here." Chloe pointed out looking into the entrance of the monument. "Hopefully, they didn't go off on their own and are alright."
"Right! Lets hurry up and find those two before something happens to make us blame ourselves the rest of our lives and never let up until were all old and dried up wondering who Senny or JJ were and how they died and how we had to explain to the reverend why we only had locks of hair for the cremation. I sure hope we find them alive. . ."
Everyone stared at Norma after her disturbing ramble. Then Grune let out an even more disturbing statement. "Oh yes! That would be a shame now, wouldn't it?"
"Lets just ignore them and start looking around." Will said. They all walked inside as Norma stood outside alone. She stood alone in front of the entry to the Earth monument as a single tear rolled down her cheek. The terrible thought of them never finding Jay nor Senel flipped inside her mind. She hastily whipped away the tear as Moses called for her to speed up or they would leave her behind, then she retreated into the building along with the others.
I KNOW! I KNOW! THE ENDING SUCKED!!!
