TheRealMe suddenly wakes up and coughs, expelling a black cloud from his lungs like a Warner Brothers' cartoon. His body is smudged and scorched. He tries to reach for his com-link, but his arm does not seem to move. It is tingly. He reaches across with his other arm.

"Hello, Bride5?"

The com-link is dead.

"Use mine," the nearby Jet suggests helpfully.

TheRealMe takes the offered device with his good hand. "Bride5?"

Quincey answers over the link. "Yes?"

"Are you on the bridge?"

"No, but I'm on my way. I felt us come out of hyperspace. Do you want a new course? I can get us in a synchronous orbit over the Keep of the Octagonal Order."

"Indeed not! They probably still want to kill us. I'm thinking that our bunch of Potters might need some schooling, and a few of us could do with a refresher course or two. Take us to the coordinates I left in the nav computer. It will have us in orbit directly above Puffenstuff's School of Sorcery."

"Right!"

TheRealMe signs off and hands the com-link back to Jet. It is only then that he realizes that he can't quite move and that he is strapped to the back of one of Jet's Diagnostic Repair Drones. She seems to be leading it down various of Sereni-Tree's corridors.

"Taking me to the Infirmary?"

"Yep."

"Ah, then I should think..."

And at that time, TheRealMe sucumbs to shock and passes out.

TheRealMe, Captain of the Sereni-Tree

Okay, maybe I need to give a quick summary about Zanzibar and of what happened when we were last here.

Zanzibar was colonized long ago by New Age mystics, fantasy role players, and Renaissance Faire enthusiasts. When they got here, they discovered that magic worked and they set up a low-tech medieval society. They also discovered that their horses died off due to some unidentified ailment, so their knights took to riding a native beast, some giant, fire-breathing space chicken.

About a hundred years ago, a group of very powerful wizards came to power, the Immortals. These individuals removed their souls from their bodies and hid them, becoming unkillable. They came to dominate the lands of Zanzibar. Each Immortal had an associated color and magic specialty.

Adelle the Burner (Orange) – Fire, Smoke, Energy; ruthless and efficient.

Alatariel the Lurker, of the Black Tower (Black) –Transformation, Illusion. Breeder of monsters; uncaring of the toys she makes.

Arinda of the Silver Eyes, the Empress (Violet) – Mind Control, Knowledge; ugly, vain, and domineering.

Karg the Bloody (Red) – War Magic; gigantic warrior encased in armor. Consumed by battle rages.

Krysta the Whisperer, the Ice Queen (White) – Cold, Ice, Water; a VERY faint voice.

Magnus the Maker (Gold) – Crafter of Magical Items. Somewhat pudgy and timid for a powerful Immortal sorcerer

Ouroborous the Infinite (Green) – Life, Plants, Animals, Earth, Stone; floats, likes snakes, worst backstabber of the bunch as he plots against all his fellows.

Zorander the Storm Caller (Blue) – Air, Wind, Storm, Weather; holds a grudge.

And there was a ninth Immortal!

Opposing the Immortals and protecting the normal humans is an organization of knight-magicians, the Octagonal Order:

Sir Devan - Old, white-haired, bearded mentor in the style of Obi-wan Kenobi.

Sir Elaine - She is temperamental and wields a greatsword with much skill.

Sir Fesai - Has light, flexible armor and a halberd. Least of the Order.

Sir Kei - Large, super strong, cheerful slayer of monsters. Summons armor and weapons to him. Unburdened by great intellect.

Sir Luc / Lucretia. - She can locate the other Knights. Friend to Kei, who annoys her greatly.

Sir Morgana, Baroness of Fairhaven - She is very cautious. Wears flexible leather armor.

Sir Wil - Lightly built; extraordinary archer. First to trust Chicken-man 13.

And there was an eighth Knight!

It so happens that the individual who was both the ninth Immortal and the eighth Knight of the Octagon was our own Jazaf! He was Sir Jazaf of the Octagonal order AND Jazaf the Metal Beast (Grey). His power was control of metal in all its forms. Apparently sometime in the past he left the Immortals and joined the Knights of the Octagon. He had some kind of long-lost romance with the Immortal Alatariel the Lurker.

We came during the middle of a great war between the Immortals and the Knights of the Octagon.

Sir Devon rescued our own Wisp from the clutches of the Immortals, and Wisp helped him out by evaluating items in the Order’s Vault of Technology, where forbidden (but potentially useful) items were kept. The Immortal Alatariel unleashed the gigantic creature that was her part human, part dragon Special Project (which then proceeded to burninate the countryside). However, Alatariel’s created races of chimeras rebelled against her. The Immortal Krysta was captured in a Wards Major by the Octagon, acting together. Sir Lucretia obtained awesome magical power (courtesy of our own Wisp) and mutated into the huge, twisted, uncontrollable Luc-monster. Immortal Karg the Bloody led his troops in an assault on the hidden fortress of the Octagon, where many of our own (including SR, Wisp, Jazaf, and Bride2) helped to hold the walls against them. The Luc-monster fought the burninating Special Project to a standstill. However, she still needed the help of Chicken-man Number 13, one of Alatariel’s chimeras who had acquired a bunch of magical items.

Meanwhile, TheRealMe and Jake7 used a soul detector made by Jadehand to try to hunt down the hidden souls of the Immortals. They had time to find only Alatariel’s which was hidden on a beach, not in some random pebble, but in the SHADOW of a random pebble. LightMeDark had been taken in by a strange old man and woman in a hut. We didn’t really see the end of that plot line.

This war took a great toll on the Knights. Impulsive Sir Fesai mistakenly beheaded the trapped Krysta. Unfortunately, this merely freed her magic-using head from the Wards Major, whereupon it froze him to death with a glance and then freed its body. Sir Lucretia, as mentioned, took Wisp’s super-potion and gained so much magic that she could not control it. However, she did manage to mind-control Krysta. After mutating into the Luc-monster, she fought the Special Project and ended up as a metal statue of herself. The excellent archer Sir Wil had a tower collapse on him. Sir Devon was turned to stone by Ourobouros, THEN had a tower collapse on him.

However, due to the love she remembered for Jazaf, Alatariel betrayed her companions and caught them in Wards Major, but not before the Empress Arinda burned out her mind. Another of Alatariel’s Chicken-men, Number 6, took the bound Immortals and locked them in Magnus’ special magical cage, from which there is no escape. Alatariel’s body was made comfortable in her chambers. This was all done at the direction of Jazaf, who promised to try to find some way to restore her mind.

Also, Scorpion Regent was known to Sir Morgana. He handed over the Dreamer’s Stone, which was some kind of artifact of great power desired by the Empress Arinda.

So, at the end, all of the Immortals except Alatariel and Jazaf were trapped in a magical cage and Chicken-man 6 was left in charge of the Immortals’ Castle. Of the Knights of the Order, only Sir Morgana, Sir Jazaf, Sir Kei, and Sir Elaine were known to survive (though Wil’s body was never recovered, and he might return). Jazaf, Kei, and Chicken-man 13 ended up with the Sereni-Tree crew. We departed in quite a hurry when Wisp decided to blow up the Vault of Technology to keep dangerous toys unused. This action did not please Sir Morgana, the new leader of the Octagon.

Oh, and there was a subplot about a techno-heretic agent of the Alliance that was trying to do something (something evil, no doubt!).

Sorry I took this long, but we spent a lot of threads doing this.

Anyway, we’re back. But we're going to start out on the other side of the planet, at Puffenstuff's School of Sorcery!

So, um, this means we're back at the place where I was building my golf course, right? If so, er, can anyone who can pilot a transport large enough to haul me, a whack of dynamite, a few tonnes of grass seed, a few miles of water piping, and three or four largish earth movers, to the site the Serenitree was last parked?

By way of payment, I offer this here handy Sorcery Protectionizer and Majicks Wizardry Inertial Security Extruder, guaranteed 100% effective by it's manufacturer, RoncoMatic, against all of the known powers of common immortals. Heck, if you get me to the site without anything going splodey, I'll gratefully add in the unincluded batteries.

*knocks on Flowers door to see where the wayward girl has gone

"Hello? Anybody home?"

After a minute the door to Flower's apt opens on its own accord. Inside there is a very empty room except for one smallish, silver, rectangle sized container laying on the bedside table.
On further inspection there is a note attached to the container that reads:

"Dearest Mai,

Thanks so much for inviting me aboard your ship. I had to make a hasty retreat and I am sorry that I didn't have the chance to say good-bye. As a token of my appreciation I have left you this small, but very useful gift. I have a feeling it will come in handy in days to come. Enjoy and BE CAREFUL!

P.S. Please don't come looking for me. It may put you and your friends in DIRE PERIL!
Have a great day!

Yours Truly,
Ms. Flower St.Claire"

*opening the box a soft yellow light glows and then flickers out. Laying on its padded surface is a shiny silver wand.

"WHOA. Good present."

*Mai runs back to the group of people still milling about after the singing contest/band rehersal

"Hey guys! Flowers disappeared and look what she's left me! We have to go and help her, she's in some kind of trouble."

*at these words the wand begins to vibrate slightly and a small reflective disc appears floating in mid air.

It shows the blurry image of a small women, being blindfolded and knocked unconscious then drug off down a road by another mysterious looking women in a long cloak. As they make their way down the road they pass a sign that is marked "PS SCHOOL OF SORCERY 2 miles" Then just as suddenly as it appeared the disc evaporates and the wand is still.

Seryn feels the shudder of them dropping out of hyperspace, and decides to head to the music room to find out what plans are, with several of the Potters in tow.

They enter the room to see the image playing out from the wand, and Seryn feels the air bristle with testosterone as they all in unison puff out their chests and assume grim, determined-with-a-hint-of-heroic faces.

"Oh lord.. why didn't I start with Hermione?"

After putting the Sereni-Tree in a parking orbit over Zanzibar, Quincey comes down from the bridge and snags Cozen.

"I've had Sparky load the stuff you wanted on our stolen alliance shuttle. We really have to give it a name. But it's ready to go. Some on, let's have a nice vacation blowing stuff up."

She then proceeds to drag Cozen onto the shuttle, where she ties him securely into his seat with silk bands. Then she opens the main hanger's large overhead doors and pilots the shuttle away from the ship and starts heading down to the surface of the planet.

"We'll have SUCH fun!" she assures him. "Why, I've even packed a picnic lunch!"

SR having tired of singing has picked up Finn and turns just as the image splashes and Seryn enters. "Oh there you are. I see you brought your tribe with you. Here is your heir. They have some strange initiation ceremonies those Zanzibarbarian magic sororities. Well now that we are in orbit I was planning on ferrying Kei back down to the panet and that fellow so unlucky as to having been made into fowl man hybrid. Did you want me to take Finn along? Did you want to come along? If no to the latter then is there anything you would like me to get for you while I'm dirtside? I was planning on doing quite a bit of trading while on the terra firma."

Seryn takes the very clean and sweet smelling Fin off SR and mouths thank you at him, then calls the Potters (who had got very interested in BC's "food") over to go get food from the kitchen.
By the time they return to the music room and sit to eat, all of the clones have learned what everything they are eating is called, how it was cooked and even most of the ingredients involved.
Sadly, Seryns entire culinry range involves beans on toast and bangers and mash, so its not that impressive. But still, as with language students everywhere, they've learnt all the swear words.

SR traipses down to his den in engineering to change into simple low tech traveller's clothes. Strapping a sword once more to his waist and collecting up a very simplistic duffle bag that he heaved up onto his shoulder.
He consulted his ship's comm-link to locate Snarky, 13, and Kei. With Snarky in tow he made his way to link up with the two Zanzibarbarian's.

Kei felt the shudder as they drop out of hyperspace as well as a shudder within himself, that chilled him to his very core. They were back over Zanzibar!

A voice accompanied the shudder. Faint, at first, but slowly raising in volume.

"Kei.... Keeeiii..." It whispered in his head.

He covered his ears and closed his eyes. "No. Go away..." He pleaded.

"Kei... Keeeii... you know you waaaant me..."

Kei stood in rage. "Nay!! I do not want you, vile creature!"

He draws his massive sword, holding aloft over his head. "I deny you with every fiber of my being, nay BY THE POWER OF GRA...."

Sir Kei stops abruptly as SR walks in.

"You were saying something?" SR looks at Sir Kei with one eyebrow raised.

"Umm... no. Not I."

"Yes you were. I distinctly heard you start to say something."

"Merely yawning." Sir Kei demonstrates by yawning and stretching grandly. "See? Just a yawn, nothing more."

A voice accompanied the shudder. Faint, at first, but slowly raising in volume.

"Kei.... Keeeiii..." It whispered in his head.

He covered his ears and closed his eyes. "No. Go away..." He pleaded.

"Kei... Keeeii... you know you waaaant me..."

Kei stood in rage. "Nay!! I do not want you, vile creature!"

He draws his massive sword, holding aloft over his head. "I deny you with every fiber of my being, nay BY THE POWER OF GRA...."

Sir Kei stops abruptly as SR walks in.

"You were saying something?" SR looks at Sir Kei with one eyebrow raised.

"Umm... no. Not I."

"Yes you were. I distinctly heard you start to say something."

"Merely yawning." Sir Kei demonstrates by yawning and stretching grandly. "See? Just a yawn, nothing more."

"Listen if you need ten minutes alone to consult with invisble friends I understand completely, but lies do not become a knight. So what do you want?"

Scorpion Regent

"I want to go home."

"Right, climb aboard."

Scorpion Regent

*after having made the rather uneventful trip down to Zanzibar BC steps out of the shuttle and immediatly begins to scent the purity of the air, and listening to the teeming life all around him, as the landing area was in a small forrest clearing near the school*

"... Nice place"

A growing crowd is gathering in the Sereni-Tree common room, carrying luggage. TheRealMe surveys the situation with satisfaction. He is wearing his ‘The Real Me’ t-shirt. “Well, this is about everyone… except…” TheRealMe reaches out. A spot of light appears at his fingertips. It expands to become a ring of fire surrounding a dark void, about two meters across. He reaches into this hole in reality, his arm disappearing into it up to his shoulder. With some effort, he yanks back and pulls Cozen out of the dimensional portal.

From the other side, Quincey’s faint voice can be heard. “Hey! Wait a minute!”

TheRealMe casually waves his hand and that portal disappears. He immediately begins work on a new one. Soon it stands open before the crowd. Jadehand steps into it. He is followed by Xander/Ash, Mai, Serenity, and (?) Seryn... NO! Citizen! Then TheRealMe shoves Cozen through. He turns back to everyone else in the common room. “Well, we’re heading off to Dragon*Con. See you all next week!” TheRealMe enters the dimensional portal and it begins to shrink back to a point of light. Then it disappears completely.

TheRealMe, Captain of the Sereni-Tree

From the doorway of the common room, Sir Kei quietly and intently watches TRM's actions.

When the last portal closes, Kei continues on his way to the hanger bay. Somewhere along the way he had changed clothes. He now wore a white T-shirt and jeans, a size or two too small, but a vast improvement from the track suit he wore before.

He had his great sword slung on his back and he carried his meager belongings in a rucksack. Over one shoulder draped an unconcious form.

Boarding SR's shuttle, he gaped in wonder, "This mode of transport will convey us to Zanzibar?"

OOC: Have fun at D*C everyone!
