And now to see what the OC and Nobodies are up to. And thanks again to Scoobycool9 and Wherever Girl for the names!
When we last left Sam/Storm, Kiff/Kiffang, Nessie, Norm/Stud, Eric/Fangpuss, Erica/Claw, Hardy, Drew, Chance, Matthew/Nightclaw, Cassie/Shadowslasher, Chris/Chase… uh… Gin, Edwin, Lamone, and, um, oh yeah, Jo and Sirius, they were tracking down the Nobodies, when some mysterious figure ran by and slashed their picture of the moon and took chase after him, only to come across two of the missing Nobodies…
The multiple OC and three Nobodies were sitting around a campfire in a field, after their encounter, deciding it was time for questions to be answered. "Before we start, would you be willing to tell us who you are?" Chase asked.
"Gladly. My name is Riffraff," Puggsy/Lamone's Nobody answered first.
"I'm Drista," Laura/Brielle's Nobody answered. "You've already met our son, Fikk. Now could you tell us who you are, and why your friend attacked my kid?"
The OC's introduced themselves. "We came here looking for you," Lamone said, turning to Riffraff. "You happen to be the Nobody of me and my brother… though…"
"Though… what?" Riffraff asked.
"I'm confused on why you have wolf-ears and a tail."
"Ah. Well, I'm quarter werewolf. You or your brother must have been part werewolf at the time,"
"That was me!" Hardy exclaimed, then gasped. "Does this mean Riffraff is also MY Nobody?"
"Don't get your hopes up, you twit." Lamone scoffed.
"And whom might I be part of?" Drista asked.
"My mom, and my uncle Biff's little sister." Kiffang answered. "At least, that's what the narration mentioned,"
"Are you sure about that?" Eric asked, scratching his head.
"What makes you think I'm not sure?"
"Well, no offense to your mom or half-aunt, but their Nobody looks more, ah, developed than them."
Everyone observed Drista, seeing that, unlike what they expected, she had more of an hour-glass shape, was at least 5'3", fair skin, and wow-wowee-wow-wow… "Knock off the staring or I'll carve my initials somewhere you don't want them!" Drista sneered, mostly at the narrator.
"So why are you searching for us?" Fikk asked.
"We think it might have something to do with our missing friends," Chase said.
"And a fractured future." Sirius added.
"Details, please?" Riffraff asked.
"A child from the future was brought to the past, kidnapped by a psychotic woman, who may be trying to sabotage our friends and family," Edwin answered, and told them everything that the author still remembered.
Riffraff rubbed his chin, Drista seemed to be staring intently into the fire, and Fikk cringed. "…and in order to save our future, we have to stop this woman, get my parents and their friends back, and set time back in order," Jo finished.
"Sounds like the timeline was already set out-of-wack," Drista said. "I mean, if this 'Finneas' guy had taken over by the time Liz was, what, 13… wouldn't that mean that in 8 years she wouldn't have a reason to come back in time if he's already been defeated?"
"Yeah… the author is still trying to comprehend that himself. Just roll with it," Sam replied.
"Do you have any contact with the other Nobodies we're looking for?" Chance asked.
"You mean Zane and Xyro?" Fikk asked.
"Zane?" Edwin questioned, then said quietly. "Why do I get the feeling that's FF2's Nobody?"
"Who would name themselves Zero?" Nessie wondered.
"X-Y-R-O is how she spells it." Fikk explained. "Just thought I'd clear that up, just so I wouldn't confuse anyone."
"Where are they?" Gin asked.
"That's what we were wondering," Riffraff replied. "They took off a week ago, but haven't come home yet."
"That's what we were doing out here, we're on a search for them, and this was usually where they'd hang out," Fikk added.
"Riffraff and I didn't see any sign of them, only saw some weirdo running around cackling… and next thing we saw was Fikk running for his life from you guys," Drista answered.
"Yeah, sorry about that." Nightclaw said, rubbing his neck. "Some creep came racing by, and apparently didn't want some of us to transform into werewolves, so we took chase. I guess he or she somehow eluded us and we mistook Fikk for him… or her."
"Do you think whoever's responsible for your missing friends could also be the reason behind our friends' disappearance?" Drista asked.
"We could team up and find out," Norm suggested.
"Couldn't hurt too much," Riffraff replied with a shrug.
"Alright, where should we start first?" Erica asked.
"How about we start with tracking down whoever tried to delay us?" Drew suggested. "Whoever they may be could still be in this field."
"Lets move out, then," Lamone said. "We'll split up to cover more ground,"
"Right, we'll go in five's," Drista agreed, and they all split up in different groups… which shall be mentioned later because I'm getting really sick of having to re-list everyone.
Meanwhile…
Somewhere in a secret place so secret that if I mentioned it now I'd be shot on sight, our villain awaited.
*slap!*
Ow! I mean, villainess. (…stupid, political correctness…)
"Well?" our villainess whispered to seven mysterious figures. "What is your report?"
"You tell her," the first figure said.
"Nuh-uh, I told her about the popcorn-maker. YOU tell her," the second figure replied, turning to the third.
"No way. I'm still recovering from when she found out about the DVD player," the third figure scoffed, then turned to the fourth. "YOU tell her,"
"I'm always the one telling her the bad news!" The fourth whined.
"WOULD YOU JUST TELL ME ALREADY?!" The villainess bellowed.
The fifth figure sighed, then stepped up. "We've got a problem. Apparently, there's still another author out there helping those other three and is in the real-world with their counterparts and OC trying to find them," they said.
"And the other OC are looking for those Nobodies you sent us to capture," the sixth said.
"But the good news is, we've captured all those meddlers!" The seventh said, then cringed. "Except… the four who joined that author in reality."
The villainess scoffed, filing her nails. "Who's this author? Tracker78? Just track down her missing five-year-old self and kill her, problem solved."
The figures exchanged looks. "Actually, she's one of the missing ones." the first one replied. "The author's name is Anti-Twilight Forever,"
The villainess cut herself, her eyes widening. "WHAT?! WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO BEFORE?!" she screamed.
"Oh c'mon, boss. The kid's only written, what, 5 stories so far, and everyone barely notices him. He's nobody special," The second figure said… then was gripped by the throat.
"The rest of the authors were the same way, and look how they turned out! If we don't get rid of ATF, our take-over is blown! Track him down and bring him to me- we can't have him interfere!"
"Sheesh, why is he so important? I mean, he hardly had a place in the Reality Twisted stories, he was never mentioned in the Missing in Fiction saga… what's the big deal about him?" The third asked.
"Because, you fools, he has the gift! Now do as I say and go capture him!" she turned to figures 5, 6, and 7. "Not you though! I need you three to take care of a task,"
"What would that be?" the seventh figure asked.
"Something to keep those Nobodies busy," she gave them a key. "Unleash… The Creeper."
Ooh, things are spicing up. What is our villainess talking about? Will the Nobodies and OC find the other Nobodies? Have I given myself too much credit in this plot? We shall find out… eventually.
