I gotta ask ya ... how is it you can send me out after Lard Lad, when it's clear that you're carrying his baby!

Ah Everyday Girl! There you are. I have organized the Zero Posters and have them fanning out across Legion World. They'll let me know if they uncover anything.
I've also checked with my sources inthe Dark Circle. The current happenings here on Legion World don't appear to be the result of any machinations of the Dark Circle, but they are watching carefully, ready to exploit any advantage.
I'm going to follow up a rumor I heard about tainted Diet Coke at the Hootchie Hut.

Lt Starsky: Space Ranger is transporting the body to Medicus Tower in a Stasis capsule.
MWF: He's still alive after having his hand chopped off and being thrown out a 14th floor window?
Lt Starsky: Not that I could tell but you know how Spacey is... The body was still warm so he thinks Clive might have some spark of life left in him and if any Doctor in this universe can bring someone back from that close to death... it's Doc One.
JBL: Yeah, Doc One's proven that to be true more than once...
I'm sorry My, but I don't work for the Security Office anymore, I only work for Cobie.
And when he needed me the most...I turned my back on him...
*choke*
...I-I have to go...

A quiet figure enters the office through the high-security staff entrance. Moving through the administrative wing with some trepidation, he appears somewhat unsure of his destination. Finally, in a dusty lower cupboard he finds what he was looking for and busys himself with it. The machine is old, but the scent wafting from it is ancient beyond memory...
"Ok! Coffee's on. Somebody get me up to speed, pronto. I've been gone too long, and now this? Cobie, shot... I, I shoulda been there. Maybe my shields could have stopped that dart. Dadgummit, I told that kid not to depend on magnetism so much. Well, what's done is done. I need the dart and all the ballistics work STAT!"
With a sigh matlock pours a cup of coffee, black, in a battered old cup and reaches for the intercom. "Motor pool, get my transport out of storage. It's about time to hit the streets."

Everyday Girl, are you around? I've come to offer my services--
<sees Matlock for the first time since being busted by him those years ago>
Hello Matlock, it is I. The Royal Inquisitor. I know you must see me and think the worst--and I know I deserve it--but please trust me, I'm only here to help.
<looks around>
Everyday I have to win over one other I've harmed in the past.

Uh-huh, so it's Roy now is it? Well, I'll be keeping an eye on you but right now I have to run down a few things. Maybe before this is over you'll have a chance to prove where your allegiences lie.
Heck, these days it's hard to tell where anyone stands any more.
Keep out of trouble.

<SharkLad enters the Office of Security carrying a sword ... there is a slight trickle of blood in the corner of his mouth>
"Matlock! Thank sprock I found you so quickly! Everyday Girl, let go of him ... I need to speak with Matlock ... besides, someone in your condition shouldn't be so, well, physical ..."
"Sharky, why are you persisting in this notion that I'm pregnant?"
"Nevermind, E-Girl ... Matlock, I've brought you this sword from, um, a friend ... is there some place we can go to talk?"

Alright, where is that scallywag, Exnihil? I got a call from my office that he has retained my services. What did he do now? Cross in the middle of the street? Take two free samples?

Quis! I was on my way to see you when this mess all started and I got dragged in. You better find Exnihil soon, his charges are somewhat more serious than taking two free samples--they include attempted murder.

(Yet another one I need to prove myself too. Well, I knew it would be a long road back, and I can only hope to make some amends a little everyday).
(It was not so long ago that Lard Lad hunted me down in the streets. I wonder if soon I'll be doing the same for him? Roles reversed...Legion World is never short of irony).
Hm, clearly we have much going on here, and its time to make myself useful. I'll head out into the streets...I do have one good idea...

quote:Clive Taylor was the "son" of LMBer Lard Lad. Originally an android duplicate of Lard Lad, Clive was bestowed humanity (via an apparent spell cast by the late sorceress Dru) after Lard Lad's apparent death during the affair code-named "Five Faces of Death". (It should be noted that Clive in android form was the primary host for the Computer Tyrant for much off FFoD until Clive fought it off with LMB help) After Lard Lad's apparent resurrection, Clive held firm that this man was an imposter of his late "father" and went to extraordinary means to do so.
Like Lard Lad, Clive had some moderate Lard Force abilities. He was LMBP co-deputy leader and founter of the Department of Moral Purity at the time of his recent, currently unsolved murder.

Sharklad, I'll need a moment with the young lady here.
<walks with Everyday Girl into his office>
I'm sorry kiddo, I shoulda told you before. There are things that only a few people know about me here. Cobie's one, and Doc One and a few others. I'll explain it all later. Right now we have to find who did this to Cobie, and deal with this Lard Lad mess. I'll tell you, there's never been a Lard user in all my years that didn't get destabilized by it in the end. Just, be wary around him. I know he tries hard.
