I had posted chapters 1-4 on the jmmb, and then it dissapeared. Well, I finished chapters 5-8, and I will post the story in it's entirety (so far, 1-8) here for those who are forgetful. Please feel free to ask questions and give suggestions. Thanks.

---------------------------------------------

<p align="center">Chapter

1:</p>



<p align="center">A

new beginning…</p>



<p>Three years has passed since the defeat of Devan. Jazz has

gotten his publicity, a good job as a Carrotus Defender, and A

family with his lovely wife, Eva. Their son, Razz, is only 16

months old. Jazz is in his room, resting, while Razz is resting

after a good meal. But Devan is outside of Jazz’s room

putting something together. Something Diabolical. It’s long,

Black, has many flashing lights, and a Blue-White liquid inside

of a tube. It looks like some kind of weapon. As Devan peeks into

Jazz’s room to see if the coast is clear, something odd

happens. Razz wakes up! He wakes and stares blankly into

Jazz’s room, as if something bad is about to happen. Devan

sneaks into the room, aims the gun at Jazz, Sleeping, and a Loud,

High-Pitched Squeal comes from within Jazz’s room. Then,

Silence. "I did it! I did it! I got rid of Jazz Jackrabbit!

Ha-ha!" As Devan celebrates, he then notices that Spaz,

Lori, and about Eight Guards stand in the doorway, Guns in hand.

Devan just has this icily looking Smirk on his face.</p>



<p>"Where’s Jazz?" Snaps Spaz as he grabs Devan by

the collar. "What did you do to him?" Spaz snaps again.</p>



<p>"Relax, Relax, Jazz’s fine." Devan says.</p>



<p>"Then why where you saying that you got rid of him?"

Spaz says.</p>



<p>"I did." Devan says, "I just moved him

someplace else."</p>



<p>"Where?" Spaz and Lori say.</p>



<p>"The third dimension" says Devan, with a chuckle.

"I know what you’re thinking, I’m lying. But no

matter how many Lie Detectors you hook up to me, they’ll all

say I’m telling the Truth. He is in the Third Dimension!

Although it was tough to do, I mean, it takes Neonious Ore and

Ice Ore to open a portal, and those are very unstable

elements…"</p>



<p>"Enough with the Tech-Talk, Just tell us how to get him

out." Lori says with a touch of attitude.</p>



<p>"Wow, this kitten’s got claws!" Devan says, and

then gets a Red handprint from Lori. "Now, as I was saying,

Ice ore and Neonious ore are VERY unstable. I had to get them

from the black market for Quite a price."</p>



<p>"How much?" Spaz asks.</p>



<p>"500 Ounces of Fire Ore EACH" Devan explains.

"Quite easy to get because it’s right next to my lair.

I mean, I do live in…"</p>



<p>"Please," Spaz says. "This is a family

game."</p>



<p>"Oh, yes, ahem, umm…where was I? Oh yes!" Devan

says. "It cost a pretty penny to get the required amounts

for three shots."</p>



<p>"And you used…" Lori asks.</p>



<p>"Two. I had the third just in case I missed Jazz with the

first shot." Devan answers.</p>



<p>"Well, we can go and get Jazz with the third shot."

Spaz says to Lori.</p>



<p>"Actually, no." Devan says. "The gun opens a

time rip for only Three minutes, and it’s a one way

trip."</p>



<p>"Is there another way to get Jazz out?" Lori asks.</p>



<p>"Well…Yes. Yes actually but I sent a robo-clone of

me to stop Jazz from coming back." Devan answers with a

quiet agitation.</p>



<p>"So? He can just defeat it. Can’t he?" Spaz

says.</p>



<p>"Well, that’s IF he gets that far. And the

Robo-clone is programmed to kill anybody with the last name of

Jackrabbit." Devan says, a little more agitated.</p>



<p>"I’ll make you a deal." Spaz says. "If

Jazz gets out alive, we’ll drop ALL charges against you. But

If he doesn’t, you go to jail for all the crimes you have

done."</p>



<p>"Deal," Devan says, "But you’ll need to

give me a day or two to get the Comm-Watches ready for

inter-dimension Communication.</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

2:</p>



<p align="center">The

Awakening</p>



<p>As Devan tries to deal his way out of jail time, Jazz, in the

next dimension, wakes up. "Where am I?" he asks

himself. Then he notices a note attached to his bandana:</p>



<p align="center">Jazz:</p>



<p align="center">Good to see you’re back to your senses.

You</p>



<p align="center">Are now in the next dimension. Look around.

Looks</p>



<p align="center">Different, eh? Look at your paws. It’s

different, again.</p>



<p align="center">I have also provided your Gizmo gun for you to

fend for</p>



<p align="center">yourself in this new territory. It’s new.</p>



<p align="center">Sincerely,</p>



<p align="center">Devan Shell</p>



<p>"Why that little turtle! I’m going to kill

him!" Jazz shouts. He looks around and finds a small

boulder. Jazz, angry as a wet hen, punches and shatters the rock,

no problem. He then takes all the little pieces and goes over to

the lake about ten feet away from him. He throws them into the

water, trying to pass the time. But as he shoots the rocks into

the water, he notices a secret passage in the lake. Jazz looks

around, making sure nobody was looking, he makes an arrow out of

the rocks he has left. Then he dives into the water to explore

the cavern. As he dives in, there seems to be a purple glow from

inside of the cave, like there is an air cavern inside.

"Curiosity killed the cat, but not the Rabbit!" Jazz

thinks to himself. As he enters the cavern, there seems to be

some kind of other rabbit. "Who are you?" Jazz asks the

stranger. The stranger, not saying a word, hands Jazz a laptop

computer, a backpack, and some kind of strange gun. The stranger

then turns around and takes a few steps toward the wall.

"Wait!" Jazz says. "What is all this stuff, and

Who are you?"</p>



<p>"To find out whom I am, turn on the laptop. The Backpack

will supply you with any extra ammo you need. The gun you have is

my prototype gun, The Flare. It will shoot out a bolt of fire and

destroy anything in it’s path." Says the stranger, then

turns around. He presses a button on some weird-looking TV

controller. As the button is pressed, a large, Purplish-Orange

circle, like a vortex. The stranger turns around, looks at Jazz,

and then bows in farewell. Then he falls back into the vortex,

then it closes before Jazz has a chance to jump through. As Jazz

walks away from the wall, he opens up the laptop. He turns it on,

and when it starts up, the background has but one word on it:</p>



<p align="center">WULF</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

3:</p>



<p align="center">A

New Ally?</p>



<p>The next day, Devan returns to the Carrotus castle. Strange,

he is carrying a briefcase. It’s small, but large enough to

carry a bomb. The guards bring in the bomb-sniffers, a machine

that can tell what a container is carrying. The Bomb-Sniffer

reports that the briefcase contains an item that’s 50% Iron,

17% electric ore, 10% Fire ore, 12% Ice ore, and 11% Neonious

ore. Nothing harmful. He even opened the case and showed them.

"They look like watches." A guard says. Devan then says

that it is a watch. The guards let him pass, and he goes straight

to Spaz’s room. As Spaz grabs his gun, Devan says that he

comes in peace.</p>



<p>"I have taken your offer, and I will help you get Jazz

back. Truce?" Devan says, extending his hand for a

handshake.</p>



<p>"Truce. But you’re going to come with?" Spaz

says.</p>



<p>"Oh, good heavens no." Devan says. "That’s

why I’ve made these!" Devan then opens the briefcase,

showing Spaz three watches. "These are the Comm-Watches. I

made them for inter-Dimension communication. The three are for

all three Jackrabbits: Jazz, You, and Lori. By the way, where is

she?"</p>



<p>"Mall." Spaz says. Devan just rolls his eyes and

says "Women."</p>



<p>Eva walks into the room of Spaz’s and asks what Devan is

doing here. "Getting Jazz back, Sister-in-law." Spaz

says. Devan then says that he forgot his time-rifle, and his

server communicator. Devan then walks out and into his waiting

vehicle.</p>



<p>"Spaz," Eva says, "Do you think we can trust

Devan?"</p>



<p>"I wish I could give you an answer." Spaz answers.

"I really wish I could."</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

4:</p>



<p align="center">A

Blast from the Past…</p>



<p>At Dawn, Devan arrives at the front gates of the Carrotus

castle. He comes out, opens his trunk, and pulls out two

briefcases: One medium-sized, and the other large. The large one

is so big it has to be pulled on wheels. "Halt." The

guard says. "What’s in the briefcases?"</p>



<p>"In the large one is the Comm-Tech Server," Devan

says. "And in the medium one is my time rifle, but it needs

to be put together."</p>



<p>"Why may I ask you have your Time Rifle?" Asks the

Guard.</p>



<p>"To send Spaz and Lori into the Third Dimension to save

Jazz…"Says Devan. "I re-programmed it so that it

can send people inter-dimension." The guards let Devan pass,

and on his way in, he bows in respect to Eva as she passes by him

on her way to Razz’s room.</p>



<p>"Suck up." Eva mumbles.</p>



<p>"I heard that!" Devan says. As he nears Spaz’s

room, he hears Spaz and Lori talking about the trip.</p>



<p>"Lori, Do you think that Devan is legit on this?"

Spaz asks.</p>



<p>"I don’t know, but I can trust him as long as he

doesn’t make those comments." Lori answers. Devan just

snickers at that, but he can’t help it.</p>



<p>"I wonder what the Third Dimension is like…"

Spaz says</p>



<p>"I don’t really know, little brother." Lori

says. "But let’s find out Together."</p>



<p>"Together." Spaz says. Just then, Devan knocks on

Spaz’s door. "Come in!" Spaz says, so Devan opens

the door and comes in, briefcases and all.</p>



<p>"I thought I’d recognized that laugh." Lori

says, with a slight smirk on her face. Devan apologizes, and then

explains why he has come.</p>



<p>"I have brought the time rifle, and the Comm-Tech server.

Ready for the ride?" Devan says. Lori and Spaz both nod.

"Okay then, be sure to hold each other tight so you two

don’t get lost. I have it set for where I send Jazz. I have

also created a map of the Third Dimension, from my Robo-Clone.

Any Questions?"</p>



<p>Spaz raises his paw. "Are the watches Waterproof?"

Devan hits his head, and then reaches his arm into his shell. He

then pulls out a bottle, but it has a Tang-o-Spray candy label on

it. Devan says that it’s his secret waterproofing formula.

He just put it in there to keep it in his pocket. He then sprays

it on all three watches, all parts.</p>



<p>"All Ready?" Devan says. Spaz and Lori nod again.

Devan then points the gun at Spaz and Lori, who join hands. Devan

fires the gun, and the two are launched into the portal, as Devan

sets up his Comm-Tech Server. Lori and Spaz land in the same

place that Jazz did. Spaz and Lori then put the watches on, and

turn them on. The screen flashes "COMM-TECH v 1.9" a

few times, then goes to a slight static. After about twenty

seconds of static, a picture comes through. It’s Devan with

a slight smile. "I see it worked." Devan says.

"Now where’s Jazz?" Lori and Spaz just shrug.

"Okay, now look for clues. Devan out."</p>



<p>"Well, now what do we do?" Lori says, as Spaz looks

around. Then Spaz nudges Lori in the ribs and points at some

small, jagged rocks. They’re in the shape of an arrow!

"That’d be Jazz’s sign of where he’s

going."</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

5:</p>



<p align="center">Reunion</p>



<p>Jazz looks through the files on the laptop while Spaz and Lori

dive underwater. While they look through the water, Lori nudges

Spaz and points at the cavern, partially covered with reeds. They

go through and come out of the cavern. They see Jazz, sitting

against the wall. "Jazz! I’m so glad to see you!"

Spaz says.</p>



<p>"Yeah, great. Let’s get out of here so I can beat

that turtle’s bony Green Butt!" Jazz says to Spaz,

Clenching his fists. Jazz then stops when he sees that Spaz has a

small smug look like Jazz shouldn’t have said that.

"What? What are you looking at me like that?" Jazz

says, putting the laptop down. "What the heck are those

watches you’re wearing? Spaz, why do you have two of

them?" Just then Spaz turns the third Watch on and hands it

to Jazz. "What? What is…" Jazz says.</p>



<p>"Hello Jazz." Devan says on the third watch.

"Now, before you go bezerk, let me explain. I made a deal

with Spaz and Lori that if I help you get out Safe and Alive, All

charges are dropped. If you die, then I go to jail." When

Jazz hears this, he puts his Gizmo gun to his head. "Jazz,

Please! I’m telling the truth!" Devan pleads. Spaz and

Lori grab the Gizmo gun and puts to his side, near his holster of

Flare. "Jazz, Is that…Is that what I think it is?"

Devan says. "Is that…Is that Wulf’s Flare?"</p>



<p>"Wow! How’d you know?" Jazz says. Just then a

large hole in the side of the wall appears, just like the one

Jazz saw Wulf walk through. Out flies a medium-sized gun and

another backpack. After the backpack comes a letter. Spaz

Curiously grabs the items, and opens the letter. Devan then

appears on Spaz’s watch as Spaz reads the letter aloud:</p>



<p>To whoever opens this letter,</p>



<p>I, Wulf, have created a gun for one, Jazz Jackrabbit. Since he

must battle his way out of the Third dimension, I have provided a

new weapon. This weapon, the Electrobomb, will fire out a bomb

that will explode on contact. This gun also will shatter the bomb

and shoot the electric Shrapnel out of the gun. This I call

"Flak" mode. Since the bomb uses one charge per shot, I

have supplied with the gun fifty shots.</p>



<p align="right">Signed,</p>



<p align="right">Wulf</p>



<p>Spaz, after reading the letter, takes the gun regardless of

Wulf’s Wishes. "But he said it was mine!" Jazz

says. Then Jazz realized that he was already holding a new gun,

so Spaz should get one. "Okay, now let’s get out of

this ugly cave." Jazz says, as he walks toward the exit of

the cave.</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

Six:</p>



<p align="center">The

Trifecta…</p>



<p>After the reunion of Jazz with Spaz and Lori, they look

around. There is a small town to the left of them with windmills

on the outskirts. They walk toward the windmills, but then an old

woman waddles up to the trio with a backpack, a gun, and a

letter. She places them down to her left, and then she says

"Jazz Jackrabbit?" Jazz raises his paw.

"Here." The old woman says and walks away.

"Another gun?" Jazz says.</p>



<p>To who opens this letter,</p>



<p>I, Wulf, have created a gun for one, Jazz Jackrabbit. This

gun, called the Neon uses Neonious Ore, and uses three ounces per

two shots. I have supplied along with it approximately 3 pounds

of Neonious ore. Please give this letter along with the gun and

backpack to Jazz.</p>



<p align="right">Wulf</p>



<p>"Lori?" Jazz says. Lori turns towards Jazz to listen

to him. "I want you to take it. I have one, and Spaz has

one." Jazz says. Lori nods and takes it.</p>



<p>While walking through town, two guards from the castle notice

Jazz and his siblings. They don’t worry about them, but then

they see their guns and their direction of movement. They

didn’t know but they where walking toward the castle gate.

The guard asks them what they where doing. "We’re

trying to find the way to the gate…" Jazz says, but

before he can say what he wanted to say, the Guard jumped to

conclusions and slapped handcuffs on them and stole all of their

guns, including Jazz and Spaz’s Gizmo Guns. "Great.

Just…Great." Jazz says as he is walked toward the

castle.</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

7:</p>



<p align="center">Jailbreak</p>



<p>"This is all a big Misunderstanding!" Jazz yells at

the guards as he is dragged by his arms to the jail cell. The

guards throw him in the cell, right between Spaz and Lori.

"Blast!" Jazz says as he pounds the wall. Lori sticks

her head out the bars, and looks into Jazz’s cell. She

knocks on the cell bars and gets Jazz’s attention.</p>



<p>"Jazz, do you have any Fire ammo?" She asks. Jazz

walks up to her and slaps her.</p>



<p>"Lori, They have our Gizmo Guns. Fire ammo will do no

good without our Gizmo Guns!" Jazz Rants. Lori knocks on the

bars again, and pulls her Gizmo gun out from under her skirt.

Lori then shows that she had her holster on under her skirt, and

Jazz has a small smirk. "Yeah, I always have 9 seconds in my

shoe as a backup for this kind of emergency." Jazz says.

Jazz hands the three pieces of ammo to her, and she loads it in.

She then melts the lock on her door, using up all 9 seconds of

ammo. She then pushes out the door and tiptoes over to the keys.

She silently steals the keys and gets Jazz and Spaz out of the

cells. They sneak down the quiet halls, and find a door with the

word "Barracks" on it. They unlock the door silently

and get their guns back. But when Spaz, being the Klutz he is,

Trips over boxes on his way out. The crash alarms guards and they

run to the barracks. The trio loads their guns quickly, and

prepare for battle. The guards burst in the Barracks, and they

leave because they think that nobody is in there, and the boxes

fell on their own. They walk back, and Spaz sneaks out and fires

a flashbomb. The bomb lands square in the center of the pack and

takes out ten of the guards. "Whoa! Nice shot, bro!"

Jazz says. They run the other way and see a garbage chute. They

want to get out as fast as possible, so they slide down it. As

they slide down, Spaz shoots another Flashbomb up the slide as a

precaution. Then it works. Three arms, two legs, an ear, and even

a leg come sliding down after them. They run into the forest and

away from the castle.</p>



<p align="center">Chapter

8:</p>



<p align="center">The

Fog</p>



<p>"Jazz!" Lori moans. "Where are we?"</p>



<p>"Well I have no clue, this fog is thicker than mom’s

stew!" Jazz replies. The then turns on his Comm-Tech watch

and calls Devan. "Devan, is there some sort of GPS in this

world?"</p>



<p>"I…I’m afraid not." Devan replies.

"But…One sec." Devan ducks under the table, as if

he’s getting something. He comes back up with a Cell Phone.

He dials a few numbers into the phone and puts it to his ear.

"Hey, Tubbs. Code 716 extension 53." He says.

"Area 83. Pass code is 93. Bring kit 7175. Got all that,

Tubbs?" He then closes the phone and then says to the Trio

"Can you stay in one spot for about an hour?"</p>



<p>"AN HOUR?" Spaz says, a little loud.

"We’re freaking out too much to stay in one spot for

more than a minute! How on earth are we supposed to stay for an

hour?"</p>



<p>"Occupy yourselves for that time." Devan replies.</p>



<p align="center"><u>AN HOUR LATER…</u></p>



<p>"How long has it been?" Spaz asks.</p>



<p>"Spaz, that’s the 188<sup>th</sup> time you’ve

asked that question!" Lori snaps.</p>



<p>"Um…Guys…" Jazz says. "I have good

news. It’s been an hour!"</p>



<p>"About time, too!" Spaz says. "My butt is

colder than a dopefish in space. My soul is dirtier than dirt. My

mind is wrecked more than a derailed train. I feel like I’m

in…"</p>



<p>"Spaz…please." Lori interrupts. "So,

Devan, Why the hour wait?"</p>



<p>"You’ll see…" Devan says, then

there’s a knock from the background. Devan looks out the

window and says, "Tubbs is here." Tubbs enters the room

with a large box.</p>



<p>"Here you go, Master Devan. The lab is still in tip-top

shape." Tubbs turns around and sees Eva in the doorway.

"Hello, beautiful." He says to Eva…Big mistake.</p>



<p>"Beautiful? Beautiful? You calling me Beautiful?

I’ll show you Beautiful!" Eva walks towards Tubbs,

seductively, then sucker punches him, square in the jaw.

"I’m taken! I am now Eva Earlong-Jackrabbit." She

hits him in the jaw again, and Tubbs dodges her third punch and

runs off toward the door. Eva chases him, and then there is a

large crash from the right. Devan just has that ‘ouch.’

Look on his face as he watches tubs get hit, and then thrown out

the window in the room. Eva then gives Tubbs a smug look and

walks off. She nods to Devan who still that look on his face.</p>



<p>"I…I’m in shock. I had no idea she could fight

like that! Even in high-heels!" Devan says to Jazz.</p>



<p>"I know. She can bench press 328 and can KO a rabbit that

bench presses up to 225. Isn’t that amazing?" Jazz

says, proudly.</p>



<p>"Well… I’ll send kit 7175. Just stay the night

where you are and the fog will clear up by morning." Devan

says, then loads a Time-core into the Time-rifle. He then fires

the box with the rifle and it appears between Jazz and Lori. They

set up camp and fall fast asleep, under the watchful eyes of

Wulf, who sits in a tree above the trio.</p>

Tubbs is sick so you'll have to wait a while for his opinion.......http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif



He doesn't mind getting thrown outta windows. Tubbs is your sorta daredevil. He also likes skydiving, falling from cliffs, hanging upside down on treebranches, etc. http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif

I finished Chapter Ten Saturday, but I got caught up in the Candy and Prophecy Cards (http://www.wizards.com/magic/).http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_razz.gif So two Chaps. Down, Two to go. I'm also making a chapter 12½ With spaz telling us a recap of what happened in the last twelve chapters. All I can tell you from the two chapters done, The Scattering and The Awakening, is that the Trio get three guns each, a Flare, Neon, and an Electrobomb. Wulf scatters Ammumition all around the Third dimension, and they get found by the upset townspeople.

<P ALIGN="CENTER"></P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">Chapter 9</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">The scattering</P>



As Jazz and his siblings rest, Wulf is very busy. He sits above the trio and pulls out a laptop computer. He turns it on and types in a few things. A few seconds later, Kazooie appears on the screen.</P>



"Hello Kaz. I have another order. Can you fill tonight?" Wulf says into the microphone on the computer.</P>



"Tonight?" Kazooie says. "It’s the middle of the day here in Carrotous!"</P>



"I’m not on Carrotous." Wulf says. "I’m in the third dimension! I need the following order sent to my door pronto: 2800 ounces of Neon, 5000 ounces fire, and 2000 ounces electric. Got all that Ka…" Wulf goes silent, when he notices Lori yawn, stretch, and then roll over. She smacks her lips, then she starts saying the word ‘Jones’ in her sleep, as if a chant. "Before I was rudely interrupted and almost blew my cover, Did you get that Kaz?"</P>



"2.8K Neon, 5K fire, and 3k electric." Kaz says.</P>



"I said 2000 electric." Wulf says.</P>



"Sorry." Kaz says. He then erases something on his pad and writes down in it’s spot. "Let’s see here, 84000 plus 80000 plus 50000…That a 214000 credit order! Can you afford that?"</P>



"How much is Deserto ore going for?" Wulf says.</P>



"Desserto?" Kaz asks. Wulf nods, and watches Kaz turn to the others and yell, "Otresed reo! Otresed reo! Kcehc ecirp on Otresed reo!" and a person yells back ‘Ruof ho ho! Ruof ho ho!’ Kaz turns around and says to Wulf, ".4k an ounce. You need 535 ounces to pay that."</P>



"Perfect." Wulf says. He then makes a portal below him and he jumps in.</P>

<U><P ALIGN="CENTER">BACK IN THE HEADQUARTERS…</P>

</U>

Wulf arrives through a portal. He lands on both feet a little roughly. He then loses his balance and falls back on his butt. He then gets back up, and brushes the dust off his butt. As he goes to his ore cache, he yells to it, "Deserto!" A door opens up and there is glass in the way. He then grabs a 500-ounce bucket, a 25-ounce bucket, and a 10-ounce bucket. He then places them on three hooks, and lifts the hooks above the glass pane. The buckets go into the shimmering gold liquid, and he pulls out the buckets with exactly 535 ounces of the gold liquid. Just as he places them in a small crate, there is a ring at the door. He claps his hands Five times, and then he rests before clapping them twice more. There is a large Whir from above the large double-doors, and as they open, Kaz is there pushing a hover-cart with three cases of ore. He then acknowledges him and takes the ore cases to the ore machine. He then gives Kaz the box of Deserto ore. "Thank you, Wulf. Standard thick?" Kaz asks. Wulf nods. Kaz then places it on a scale and it shows 535 ounces perfectly. Wulf grins as Kaz places his ore on the hovercart. He then pushes them through the doors, and wulf presses a button. The large double doors close with a creak and then a slam. Wulf then places the tanks on these machines and turns them on. Out come 180 little neon cases, 200 red battery-like fire cases, and 100 Electric cases. He then places them on a machine, and then places in a few coordanites and then he presses a button labeled SCATTER. The ammo scatters throughout the Third dimension.</P>



Wulf then warps back to the third dimension, and places two more flares, two more Electrobombs, and two more neon guns. He then sorts them out, a Electrobomb to Jazz and Lori, a Flare to Spaz and Lori, and a Neon to Jazz and Spaz. Then the fire goes out, and Wulf is in the darkness. He then places a note where the fire was, right in the ash. He then covers part of it with the ash to look as if it was javelined in. He then sees that the sun is on the horizon and he then quickly disappears into one of his portals.</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">Chapter 10</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">The awakening</P>



Jazz is up first. He notices that he has Lori and Spaz’s guns, or so he thinks. He looks, and sees the note in the ash. He picks it up and reads it under his breath, while the townspeople are in an uproar about the trio’s escape.</P>



To whomever wakes up first,</P>



I, Wulf, have done two things in the night while you slept. While you slept, I scattered ammo for your new guns around the Third Dimension. Also keep a lookout for more new guns, for I am working on an Eightball, a Toxic Sludge launcher, and also a sniper rifle. The Eightball will be a rocket launcher that can launch up to six rockets at a time. The toxic sludge launcher will use ammo straight from the depths of mucammo. You may also want to watch yourselves because I’ve detected minions of the Evil Bot. Proceed to the Constant rip with caution!</P>

<P ALIGN="RIGHT">Wulf</P>



"Well that’s a fine bunch of bull…" Jazz says, a little loud, but catches himself from saying the next word on his mind. Lori, being the closest to him, mumbles some gibberish as she rolls onto her back and opens her eyes a little. Lori sees the Neon in another holdster on Jazz’s belt and she instantly bolts up. "Now, Lori," Jazz says, "There where guns by each of our beds. Don’t go implying things." Lori looks behind her and sees the two other guns. "Look at this note." Jazz then says to Lori. He then hands the note, slightly crumpled from Jazz’s rageful outburst that woke her up. She opens it, and reads the note.</P>



"This is Bull-Plop!" Lori exclaims, now waking Spaz up. Spaz rubs his eyes and notices the note. He walks forward, and accidentally trips on something in the ash. He picks it up, and then notices the phrase ‘WULF 6/19/2289’ on the side. He then presses a button on the side of his Comm-tech watch and Devan appears, lying on the bed snoring. Lori looks too, and she presses the RECORD button on the watch. She notices a red light coming from the upper left of the camera as she snickers at Devan snoring. Devan then rolls over, blinks twice and notices the camera is recording something. Devan jumps, says a few obscenities, and then turns off the recording. </P>



"Blackmailer." Devan says to Lori, still laughing. "So, anything new?" He says to the men. All of the sudden, you hear a ‘Twang!’ from the left, and an Arrow cuts one of Jazz’s left whiskers.</P>



"Wulf dropped us a note, We each got one of the guns, and the locals found us. RUN!" Jazz says in a hurry. The trio dash off to the East toward the rising sun and disappear into the forest again.</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER"></P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">Chapter 11</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">The Lagoon…</P>



"Where are we?" Spaz asks, looking around the forest.</P>



"I have no Idea. Spaz, What’s that you have?" Spaz looks at the item he tripped over and shrugs. He then hands it to Jazz and he then looks it over. "It looks like some sort of ring…"</P>



"No Sh…" Spaz says, then walks into a tree, interrupting Spaz’s next word. Jazz puts the ring on, and his body had felt a touch lighter</P>



"What the he…y! I can Fly!" Jazz said. He flew around and then landed. He then stated that there is something else to the ring… "I think that there is something with…Energy…that’s what I’m getting from the ring into my mind…But what?"</P>



"Visible Energy." A voice booms from behind them. The trio turn around, with Jazz the farthest. "That ring you possess? That was mine. I was wondering where that got to. When I noticed your flight, I knew you had found it."</P>



"Not me, but Spaz." Jazz says. He then removes the ring from his finger, and tosses it to Wulf. Wulf sticks his hand out and the ring lands on his finger. Wulf then looks at them, then looks behind them. Wulf pulls out a small handgun, and points it at Jazz. Jazz starts to back out and doesn’t look where he’s going. Wulf walks after him, with a evil-looking smile. Jazz continues to walk, and looks behind him and sees a tree, so he sidesteps it, and then backs up a few more yards. As he takes one more step, Jazz then falls down a slightly steep hill. Wulf laughs at Jazz’s fall, as Jazz says a few obscenities. Wulf looks near the bottom of the hill, and then takes a few shots. As the bullets blaze past Jazz, Jazz yells to him, "Why are you Shooting at m…" And hears a large Shatter behind him. A watch on his wrist goes from 61,883 to 62,003.</P>



"Hrm, 3D enemies have Point values like in the Second Dimension." Wulf then Grins, and then puts on a pair of sunglasses. He then looks over to the left, Draws his gun and pelts something with Five shots. The watch, again, goes up 120 points. He then creates a portal to his left, a small portal that is large enough for him to stick his arm through. He then pulls out three more of the same type of watches, and hands one to Spaz and Lori, and then lobs one into a portal that connects to another next to Jazz. The Watch flies out and Jazz grabs it. The three Place them on, and as they did this, they looked out into the large lagoon that Jazz was next to, and Wulf also left three sunglasses, or so they thought. Another note was placed next to the Sunglasses.</P>



Jazz, Spaz, and Lori:</P>



These "Sunglasses" are actually HUDglasses, or Heads-Up Display glasses. They hook up to the Watches to also show your Score, While also showing Ammo counts and Enemy Locations/Health. I hope they’re as much of a help to you as they are to me.</P>

<P ALIGN="RIGHT">Wulf</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER"></P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">Chapter 12</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">Who’s Who?</P>



As Spaz, Jazz, and Lori pick up the HUD glasses, they all see each other. Jazz notices that swimming through the Lagoon, there’s small fish swimming through. As he looks through the HUD Glasses, he notices that at the bottom of the Lagoon, there’s a large enemy that the HUD shows. "Holy sh…"Jazz says, and then the gigantic enemy Flies up through the water, and lands on top of the water, and splashes Jazz. Lori and Spaz snap their heads to the enemy and see it as a large factory-like thing…Then, three Ramps fly from the second level of it. As the doors open, it seems like Jazz, Spaz, and Lori are inside it. Just then, The Look-alikes walk down the ramp to show many. The HUDglasses showed that they where pushovers, but the enemy was not. Jazz fired on his Comm-Watch, and Devan was right there with a laptop. "Devan! Devan, quit playing games!" Jazz Shouted at him as he shot the duplicates.</P>



"I’m not!" Devan says. "I just detected a boss minion of the Evil Robo-clone is nearby."</P>



"No sh…"Jazz says, and an explosion masks his word that was going to be said next. "We need some 411 and PRONTO!"</P>



"Okay! Okay!" Devan says, then Taps a few keys in the Laptop. "What’s it look like?"</P>



"That!" Jazz says, then points the watch at the floating factory. Devan Gasps, and then types a lot of keys in the Laptop. "What is it, Devan? WHAT IS IT?"</P>



"That is Model number 2381519-23815, called the Who’s Who. I programmed into the Robo-clone all of my currently unproduced designs, thinking of perhaps slowing you down. I see tha…Wait…"Devan says and then scrolls down the computer screen. "This is a Class C Boss…I think he wants to hit you three hard and fast. Don’t worry, There is a way to destroy it…"Devan then goes to Spaz’s watch along with Jazz’s. "I want you two to go behind it." He then goes on Lori’s Watch and says, "Cover them." He then goes back to the Men’s watches and says, "When you get to the back of the machine, Look for the grating. Jazz, Shoot your Flare at the Grating. Spaz, Flashbomb the inside of it and, if done correctly, the top will turn from Green to Brown. When it’s brown, That means the force shield is down. Have the three of you retreat to the top of the cliff and fire at the Brown. When the top has holes in it, Shoot inside the holes until he’s dead."</P>



"That’s it? That’s all that had to be done?" Spaz says.</P>



"Easier said than done!" Lori tells them. "There’s too many dupes!"</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">-To be Continued-</P>
