Chapter 386 Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust
"And how the fuck do you think you are going to be able to do that?" demanded the commanding officer of the Country M submarine.
"With a little faith, trust, and pixie dust, of course," I said with a smile as I cock my head to the side. "But seriously. You leave that part to me. What do you say? Leave here with all your men alive and live in Country K for the rest of your lives, or die in this tin can? Really the choice is yours," I asked. I was out of patience and out of time.
And you couldn't buy either one at the neighborhood convenience store.
I know.
I looked.
"Why can't we get back to Country M," asked one of the men sitting in front of a blank screen. I wondered if he had to man the position even when it was down or what because staring at a dark screen could not be all that entertaining.
"Due to an EMP, there are no trains, planes, or automobiles," I answered him, trying not to be sarcastic but managing to fail miserably. "And no yachts, as I have just been informed. So, unless you are going by dingy or swimming, you are stuck here. And by here, I mean County K... unless, of course, you would prefer to be stuck here-here in the sub. Really, the choice is yours."
Had Psycho come back when I wasn't expecting it? I was really too tired for this to be Perky. Crazy though? Yeah, this was definitely Crazy. Huh, I thought that one vanished.
'I tried to. But then one of your personalities put something of mine in a 'safe place' without telling any of your like 25 other personalities where it was. I am staying here until I find it,' came the clown voice. I really hated it, I mean, really. I expected it to be calling out 'Georgie' any minute now.
'What did they put away?' I asked, trying my best to follow the conversation with her.
'The boat,' Crazy said with a nod of her head. She was wearing a red, black, and white version of the Alice dress, and like Perky, her hair was done up in pigtails. However, she definitely needed help when it came to her makeup. It looked like a 2-year-old did it.
'What boat?' I asked before realizing that I should be paying attention to the outside world and not the one in my head right now.
'Exactly!' exclaimed Crazy as she threw her arms up in the air in disgust.
'Exactly what?' That was my second mistake. And yes, I was probably going to be dumb enough to make a third one. So, before I could do anything, I turned to Liu Wei.
"Having a few issues," I said with a strained smile. "I'm just going to step out and deal with them. Can you two figure out what is going to happen and then let me know? I am the one with the pixie dust, after all."
Liu Wei looked at me, concerned, before giving me a nod. I knew we would be discussing it later, but right now, I needed to be out of this enclosed room, bridge, whatever the Hell it was called. n.-o-.v.-e(-l//B-/1-)n
I went out in the hallway and sat down on the floor, my back against the cold, metal wall.
'Okay, what is going on?' I asked Crazy. I mean, I had no idea what she was talking about when it came to a boat. How could you put a boat away in a safe space and not know where it was?
'Violence says that the device is two floors down and the fourth door on the left," said Crazy with that creepy smile on her face. I cocked my head to the side and quickly slipped into the world of the throne room, as I liked to call it.
"Violence, are you really having Crazy deliver messages now?" I asked as I walked towards the blue throne in the center of the room. It looked exactly like the ice throne that I always seemed to create.
I turned around and sat down on the throne, marveling how it felt so familiar and yet unfamiliar at the same time.
"I thought that Crazy was more in charge at the time," shrugged Violence as she came to stand in front of my throne. "But yeah, I have found where the device is."
"And just how did you manage to do that?" I asked with a smile that was not a smile. They might be my different personalities, but that didn't mean that they had my best interests at heart.
Violence looked at me for a second before turning away. "What do you know about multiverses?" she asked.
"That it made a shitty movie," I replied, shrugging my shoulders. I didn't care about multiple universes or any other popular science theory. I cared about the here and now.
"Fine. That was where Crazy found the device when she was in charge of the body," said Violence as Crazy frantically started nodding her head.
"Nope," I denied flat out. I was not playing this game. Even if I had multiple personalities and each one had its own world where it was the star, I didn't care. This was my world. Period. End of Sentence. Not going there. I had more than enough on my plate.
"What do you mean?" asked Crazy as she started to twirl one of her pigtails.
"I mean, no. I am not going to get killed looking for something that may or may not be there. I offered an ultimatum. They give me the device, and they live, or they don't give me the device, and they die. Either way, I am swimming out of there with the device in my space. But I am not going to piss off people that can probably kill me with a pencil simply to get something that I will be taking anyways. Understood?"
"No, not really," said Crazy, shaking her head. "And I really am looking for my boat. Have you seen it? It is white, or grey, or yellow. I forget now. But it is definitely made from paper!"
I looked at Violence. "V will be more than happy to help you look for your boat!" I said in my brightest, perkiest voice.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
