The Warriors: Protectors of the Multiverse

Chapter 37

The gang was searching in the city of Vedan for Angela's Bar so they can find someone to help get them underground and find the ancient tablet

Where is that bar? Punk said

It's got to be around here somewhere. Kisala said

Yeah but where? Punk said

I don't know but we have to keep looking. Kisala said

It could be anywhere. Jaster said

Hulk getting tired of searching. Hulk said

I know big guy but we can't give up. Punk said

Punk's right Hulk we will find it. Kisala said

Hulk understand. Hulk said

Exactly now let's go find that bar guys. Punk said

Right. the others said

A few minutes later

The gang kept searching and searching until they finally found Angela's bar

So is this the place? Punk said

Yup this is it. Kisala said

Good then let's go inside. Punk said

Yeah time to see what we can find. Jaster said

They all went inside the bar with jazzy music playing and with a few people sitting and a woman serving drinks a gruffy looking dog with robotic parts was drinking while talking with the woman

Gimme another. the gruffy dog said as he finished his drink and waited for the woman to give him another

Come on, that's enough, Deego. the woman said

Oh, drop it, would you? Why can't i as much as i want? Deego said

Come on, cut it out. You never used to be like this. What happened to the old Deego, the heroic soldier? Look at you, you're just a shell of your former self. the woman said

Deego was looking down as he was feeling depressed

And look at me-silly enough to fall in love with such a miserable man. the woman said

Oh, this again? I'm tired of talking about the past. Deego said

Deego... the woman said

Uh...hello? a voice said

The woman shot up and saw four people standing there

Oh, i'm sorry, didn't see you there. Something to drink? This way. the woman said

Actually we're here for something. Punk said

Oh? Well what is it? the woman said

We want to know if... Jaster said

Before Jaster could explain someone was just thrown inside the bar and that person was Burton

It's that old guy! Jaster said

What the hell? Punk said

Suddenly an evil bad looking guy came in

Heh heh heh heh! the bad looking guy said

What was that for?! All i did was just ask around about the tablet! Burton said

Suddenly another guy came inside the bar he had purple hair and a long dark brown and red coat and was approaching and stalking Burton

Oh, er, sorry about that... Burton said

All this secretive sniffing around...guess you still have no idea. the purple hair man

Gale...! the woman said

Gale grabbed Burton by the neck and started choking him

Urk! Burton said

Keep sneaking around and you'll be putting your life at stake, old man! Gale said

N-No...i-i was just... Burton said

Gale then turned around and saw Punk, Jaster, Hulk, and Kisala

Haven't seen YOU before. Something's fishy. Who are these guys? Gale said

They are my customers, Gale. And while they're in my bar, you don't get to hassle them. the woman said

Humph...look, this is a very important time for our town. Don't do anything that would make anyone suspicious-that goes for you too, Angela. Gale said

Angela looked on with an angry face while Deego was still wallowing in depression

Got a problem with that? No? Good. Just remember: Defy Zax Morarty and you won't survive for very long in this town. So don't try anything stupid. Got that, Angela? Gale said

Before Gale could leave he called out Deego

And Deego. Got your tail between your legs, as usual. All that money you scrapped up in the mines-was that just to buy yourself some drinks? You definitely are a loser, Deego. Pathetic. Gale said

Gale shoved the evil looking guy as he was leaving

Move! Gale said

Heh! the bad looking guy said as he and Gale have left

Jesus what's that guy's problem? Punk said

Sorry about that. Angela said

Angela then looked sad as she turned and looked at a photo of her Deego and Gale

(Signs) Angela said

Whoa! This is great! Why, it's fate that has brought us together! Burton said

While Burton was done talking with the gang he ran up to Deego and started talking with him

Say, big fellow, you look like you work at th' mine. Is there a secret entrance to that place? Would you be so kind as to show me? Burton said

No thanks. I'm not getting involved. Deego said

Oh, come on. Please? Burton said

Don't make me tell you again. I won't do it. Deego said

Oho! I see how it is! You're afraid o' that fella! You look pretty tough, but you're really just a wuss, aren't you? Burton said

What?! Deego said

Whoa! Wait a second, don't get mad! This has been a dream of mine. Burton said

Deego's face looks like he wants to strangle Burton but he calmed down and decided to listen to his story

They found an ancient tablet in a mine on this planet. Its archaeological value is absolutely mind-boggling. I can't die until i gazed upon that tablet and unlocked its secrets. Come on, can't you help an ol' archaeologist's dream come true? Burton said

A dream come true...so that's your dream, huh? Deego said

You bet! Burton said

Tell me, you got money, old man? Deego said

Bwah ha ha! Oh, that's rich! Oh, my! Have faith good fellow, money is no object for me! Burton said

All right. Deego said

Hey, why don't we go with them, guys? Kisala said

Oh, so you all want to help, as well? Burton said

Hell yeah we do. Punk said

Sure, can we come along? Jaster said

Are you serious? Of course, of course! Burton said as he was excited ran up and shake all of the gang's hands

So...is that a yes? Punk said

You bet your asses it's a yes! All right then it's settled! The Burton Caravan is off to find th' great tablet! Burton said

Then we better leave soon. First you need an ID card. The item shop downtown should have some black-market cards. Gale's got his eye on you old man. You stay here. We'll get the card for you. Deego said

Oh...i see. Yes, all right. But you know, i will get a little lonely. Burton said

Oh, don't worry, i'll be happy to keep you company. Angela said

Ah! Yes? That sounds marvelous. Burton said

Burton then ran up and sat down as he was having a drink with Angela

Ahh, haven't had a drink wit' a beautiful woman in quite some time...

You're okay with this? Punk said

Okay? This is more than okay it's absolutely marvelous. But anyway good luck out there, troops! Oh, and feel free to take your time. Burton said

Huh? Jaster said

My thoughts exactly. Punk said

We should probably get going. Kisala said

I agree with the girl. The sooner we find that tablet the better. Deego said

Right. Jaster said

Yeah, let's go and give these two some alone time. Punk said

Are they...? Kisala said

I'm kidding. Punk said

Meanwhile

Lobo was seen standing next to the doorway and heard everything

Ancient tablet huh? Interesting. Lobo said

Lobo called Lord Dominator and was talking to him

Hey boss? Lobo said

What is it Lobo? Lord Dominator said

Is it something special? Lord Dominator said

Very special. Lobo said

Tell me. Lord Dominator said

Get ready to have your mind blown. Lobo said
