Chapter 18 - Beginning the Treasure Hunt
As we reached my car, I turned around and sat on the front. "So what is it you want to talk to me about?", I asked. "Did you see the news?", my jelly boyfriend asked. I responded, "No. Why, what's going on that you're so worried about?" He began to pace back and forth in front of my car, as if he was thinking about all the things he was about to say. "Remember when I told you about when I escaped from the Lab?", he asked. "I do remember that, yeah.", I mumbled. "Well, one of the scientists there was especially getting googly-eyed at me, almost as if he wanted to do malicious things with me."
"What's your point?", I asked. "Look, the point is is that he's still alive, and he's been torturing helpless creatures for 'research'. It's clear to me that he has a personal feeling when he does evil things towards his creations." I asked yet another question,"Well, okay, what do you want me to do about it?" He replied, "The T.V. in there was reporting something about a tall, blue, human-bunny hybrid creature. The professor placed a bounty on him for 10,000$! We have to save him, man!" I was shocked, saying "Whoa, whoa, whoa, a what?" He answered, "A tall human-bunny hybrid. Say... I think I know how he came to be." I asked yet another question, adding to the many. "How's that?"
He explained to me about Substance N, the experimental compound that was created about 41 years ago. "Wait, back up. So... you're just a mixture of regular stuff?", I asked, knowing how little I actually knew about Chemistry. After facepalming, my jelly boyfriend turned towards me, and asked "Well? Are we gonna go save him or not?!" I replied, "Well, we still have to go grocery shopping, but if it bothers you that much, we can go and find him right now, after I fill up the gas." My jelly boyfriend said in excitement, "Alright! We're gonna meet a new buddy!"
We climbed into the car, buckling the seatbelts as I turned the car on. My jelly boyfriend was disappointed that Spin me Around wasn't playing. "Hey, why isn't our song playing?", he asked. "It's a radio, they don't play the same song over and over. It's like TV, but for music. Try changing the station for something else you like!" He reached over and turned the dials to find a song he liked. I looked over at him, thinking "Holy crap, he's not questioning sex anymore, he's really adamant on finding help for this creature. How caring and gentle..." I looked down to find that I was sporting a raging erection, pitching a small tent in the tight fabrics of the jeans. Oh god, now I'm the one begging for sex!
Forget about it! He's right, we have to save the bunny from his imminent death, I thought to myself. I pulled out of the parking spot, driving towards the Newport bridge. Eventually, my jelly boyfriend turned the radio station to find another one of his favorites: Pink Floyd's Breathe. I looked over in amazement as Jelly boyfriend nodded his head to the groove. "You like that song too?!", I asked. "Well, yeah, it's kinda groovy!", he responded. I kept my window cracked, but not entirely rolled down. I love this song, and air conditioning is a gas-muncher.
When we finally arrived at the Newport bridge, there were people all over the place. It turns out, they saw the news segment as well. I turned the music down, rolling down a window to pull up to a man wearing a Bernie T-Shirt, with shorts on. "Hey!", I shouted, grabbing his attention. "Did anybody find the bunny yet?" He replied, "Not yet, no. We have people all over, even under the bridge, as well as people looking around the providences that the bridge connects it to. Nothing!" I looked over at my jelly boyfriend, who let out a sigh of relief. I looked back up at the person. "Thank you so much!", I said with a happy tone, with him responding, "No problemo! I hope someone finds him, you know?!"
My jelly boyfriend leaned down, looking up at the man, yelling, "I know exactly what you mean!"
