Scene 76

I threw up my hands in exasperation. “But how? All you’ve had me do is run around to different worlds. Sure, I’ve helped some people, made a few friends, but I still have no idea how to find the Pipes or how to get them back!”

Miss Pleater smiled slightly. “Do not be so quick to discount your experiences, Mr. Dove. When we first recruited you, you were not yet ready for the final confrontation. You needed to learn.”

“Learn what?”

“An ability few people have and fewer still ever learn to use, you needed to learn to bend the reality around you. You have done that now, so you can now face the Emperor of the North.”

“What do you mean? How have I learned that?”

Miss Pleater smiled. “Oh, you may not realize it, but your instincts are strong. You have such a hold on your own reality that you can let it interact with other realities at will. Using your ability is not really something you make happen. Rather, you let it happen.”

“I don’t understand.”

“You do not need to understand. You need only do what you have been doing.”

“I still don’t know what you’re talking about, but I’ll take your word for it.” I stood up and shook my head. “Okay, send me to the Emperor. Let’s finish this!”

She rose from the chair with a smile. “I am glad to see you are eager, but I am afraid I cannot do that. The Emperor is using the power of the Pipes to keep my counterparts and me away. But he will not be able to stop you from coming.”

“Good! He won’t know what hit him.”

Her smile widened. “Do not be overconfident. He knows you are coming and will place many obstacles in your path.”

“I don’t care!” I waved my hand around my surroundings. “He’s not going to do this to any more worlds.”

Miss Pleater stared at me for a few moments and then nodded in satisfaction. “Very well, then head due north and into the storm.”

[Livingston]

Go get him, Dave. Call on the team as needed.

[Jock Scot]

Things are starting to look rather ominous for you Mr. Livingston.

[davedove]

Who knows who might show up for the climatic scenes???

[Livingston]

Based on that, you might want to watch out too, Jock.

[Jock Scot]

Based on that, you might want to watch out too, Jock.

Yes you could be right there.I had better double the gin, bandages, gin, plasma, gin, saline, gin, morphine, gin, whisky order, just in case.
