Inoria

Of course! Why didn’t I think of that? 

Hawkqueen

And how exactly do we reverse the polarity on a CAPE? 

Mr. Wizard

Turn it inside out and then walk across a very thick plush carpet. The resulting static electricity should be sufficient to send you back to your home destination.

Wizard

But before you do, I have something for each of you. For you Fred, some more gasoline for your chainsaw, because you’ve been using it constantly for half the movie now, and continuity demands that you fill it up. For you Hawkqueen, here are your hawks. I snookered them from Thorne, and I think you’ll really need them in the final battle. For you Inoria, I have a book. 

Inoria

Tell Me Why? 

The Wizard

It has the answers to hundreds of questions in a simple to easy read format. 

Inoria

Wow…thanks! 

Hawkqueen

Thank you for getting back my birds! Mephistopheles…Amber…Are you ready to claw the bad man’s eyes out? Yes you are, yes you are sweetums. 

I Got My Mike Back

Hi All.  T.C. Ricks. I got my mike back and give a few comments on the podcast and my current writing plans.

Yes, but you chose that title for the

(interrupted) 

CHAINSAW FRED

Just shut up already. Sheesh, it’s pretty obvious he’s the Wizard from the Wizard of Oz. Books people. They’re amazing things.  

Wizard

Yes, that would be me. And I’ve come to help you all. 

Hawkqueen

Well-just how exactly did you get here? 

Wizard

It’s funny you should say that, when I was rising up in the balloon, hoping to head for Kansas…there was a strange willowing wind, and much to my consternation, I ended up here. It’s not so bad though, you get to meet the most interesting people. 

Inoria

Well Mr. Wizard…do you know a way to get us back to our own dimension?

 

Mr. Wizard appears.

Mr. Wizard

He’s not Mr. Wizard. I am. And yes, I know how to get you back to your home dimension. It’s rather simple really. Reverse the polarity on Frank’s cape. It will take you straight to home. 

Preparations

So, I finally have some ideas about where to go w Novel 6 for November and will be starting with a round robin Fairy Tale Jamboree with some friends.  The stories will be creative commons so they will get them too, but I will use them to fashion a prequel and what nay be the seventh novel to spring board into just who or what the divine family is that uses some of the interesting bits I habe cobbled together can do.

CHAINSAW FRED

Who are you? 

The Wizard

I am the Wizard. Perhaps you’ve heard of me. 

GRENADEMAN

THE WIZARD OF SPEED AND TIME? 

The Wizard

No. 

GRENADEMAN

THE WIZARD OF WALL STREET? 

The Wizard

No, the other one. 

GRENADEMAN

THE WIZARD OF DEATH CASTLE? 

The Wizard

You just made that one up. 

GRENADEMAN

I DID NOT. 

The Wizard

Yes, you did. 

GRENADEMAN

The Wizard

It isn’t very super heroic to lie Frank.

ER. WELL. PERHAPS, I THE COSMOS, BEING AN INFINITE SERIES OF POSSIBILITIES, THUS CONTAINS THE POSSIBILITY THAT SOMEWHERE THERE MUST BE A WIZARD OF DEATH CASTLE.

Hawkqueen

Hmm. On second thought, maybe that was a bad idea.

 

Another major fight ensues. It is a close one, but the heroes manage to defeat the randomly compiled Resident Forces of Evil and reduce them to tiny little bits of meat and shreds.  Chainsaw Fred decapacitates The Evil Elvis Clone. Inoria uses a vial of acid on the Loch Ness Monster. Hawkqueen picks up and throws Frankenstein away and Grenademan gets pummeled by the Wonder Hamster until it accidentally sets off one of the grenades and gets blown away.

Chaos

Congratulations! You win the rest of your miserable little lives, the insignificance and boredom of which will be far more punishment than anything else I could possibly hope to inflict upon you. You may wander as you will.

 

Chaos disappears.

Inoria

Well he does have at least one point… 

HawkQueen

His head? 

Inoria

No, I mean we are wandering as we will. I’m beginning to wonder if we’ll ever get back. We can’t just keep grabbing Frank’s cape and flickering through the universe like some cosmic remote control.

The Wizard appears. 

The Wizard

Perhaps I can help with that.

Frankenstein, the Lock Ness Monster, Evil Psychotic Elvis Clone and Ralph the Wonder Hamster appear and look very upset. 

CHAINSAW FRED

(to Grenademan)

Remind me to kill you if we survive this. 

GRENADEMAN

AHA! THE FORCES OF EVIL! PREPARE TO BE VANIQUISHED VILE FIENDS! 

Inoria

This is a fascinating collection of random images. I wonder if it has some deeper significance 

Hawkqueen

Inoria, dear, I love you to bits, like a daughter even, but if you try to analyze the artistic meaning of something trying to kill us one more time I really will hurt you. I mean that. 

Inoria

But surely

Hawkqueen tosses Inoria into the approaching crowd of evil. 

Hawkqueen

Here. Take her. 

GRENADEMAN

TALLYHO! 

Guest Poet

Joshua and John
By Redwin Tursor

In Joshua, God sends his chosen people to kill every person not like them
In John, God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son.
These days, it isnt that hard to see which God is in charge of things
Of course, you can say that you love the sinners
As you hack them to bits for wanting to organize
Just like ISIS does to Christian folk with a machate
But to read the trolls on the internet
There sure are a lot more soldiers of Joshua
Than followers of Christ
So on a day that we celebrate him coming back from the dead
Perhaps we can honor the reverse flying zombie best
By honoring his wishing when he said over and over again
"Look man, I am totally not my father"
Maybe there was a reason for that
Maybe there was a reason he said "just because some jackass does something in my name doesnt mean thet are following me."
Maybe he came back
Not to be with his genocidal followers or his killer dad
Happy birthday Jesus
Hope you are enjoying Boulder or Asheville

GRENADEMAN

IT IS A FAR FAR BETTER THING THAT I HAVE DONE NOW, THAN I HAVE- 

Chainsaw Fred hits Grenademan on the shoulder as they begin to fade from view.

CHAINSAW FRED

Get you own line. 

GRENADEMAN

OW. 

EXT. SEA OF LOST SOCKS – DAY

An island in a sea of socks. A demigod sits at a podium game show style. The heroes fade into view. 

Chaos

Hello, welcome to the Sea of Lost Socks. Where’s that you ask? It’s a hole between dimensions, a place where things go when they haven’t got any other continuum to go to. Who am I? Glad you asked-My name is Chaos. I am a resident demi god bored out of my mind. Why am I answering your questions for you? Because every one asks the same thing. Like the inevitable next question… 

GRENADEMAN

WHERE ARE THE RESIDENT FORCES OF EVIL THAT WE MIGHT SMITE THEM? 

Chaos

Hmm. Actually, no, the question that most people ask is usually something like ‘How did we get here?’ or ‘Can you send me home?’ or the occasional ‘My you are a snazzy dresser, where did you get that fabulous wardrobe’. But I can do Resident Forces of Evil. Meet Frankenstein, the Lock Ness Monster, The Evil Psychotic Elvis Clone and Ralph the Wonder Hamster. 

[Script] Tossing Grenades At Windmills - Page 68

Grenademan races through the assembled crowd of French People and French Knitting Women and blows up the guillotine, freeing the woman. 

FRENCH PERSON #1

What is this?! 

FRENCH PERSON #2

It is the silly people we saw before! They’re trying to free the prisoners! 

Inoria

Oh crap. 

Hawkqueen

We’d better get back to that cape or we’re toast. 

CHAINSAW FRED

Why didn’t you two help the girl? 

Inoria

It would have –OW! 

A major fight ensues between the French people and our heroes. Grenademan is surprisingly successful, doing well for a change, freeing prisoners who run away. The other three fight with more French people and close in on Grenademan. 

Inoria

This could be very bad for the space-time continuum 

CHAINSAW FRED

(Starting Chainsaw)

Alright, enough of this…. 

Fred cuts a swathe through the French People and assorted psychotic knitting French people and they touch Frank’s Cape.

GRENADEMAN

ER…EXCUSE ME…. 

Inoria

It’s utterly fascinating, why, there could be such a world for every hope and dream ever conceived by mankind…there really could be a Narnia, or a Shangri-La, or a place where trickle down economics really works. 

GRENADEMAN

SOMEONE IS ABOUT TO GUILOTEEN THAT WOMAN OVER THERE…SHOULDN’T WE BE ACTING WELL…SUPERHEROIC, SEING AS HOW WE’RE WELL…YOU KNOW…SUPER HEROES? 

Inoria

Oh no. Any action we take here might affect the cosmic balance of our own dimension. Why, who knows what disturbed dreams that children might be having back in our own world.

Hawkqueen

Those things seemed pretty disturbed as it was without any of our help. 

CHAINSAW FRED

Do you people ALWAYS talk like this? Is there some special school you go to? 

Inoria

Where is Frank? 

GRENADEMAN

TALLYHO!

FRENCH PERSON #2

Madrigras was last week you silly people. 

FRENCH PERSON #1

Perhaps they are simply celebrating the Revolution? 

FRENCH PERSON #2

That must be it. 

Hawkqueen

Where in the HECK are we? 

CHAINSAW FRED

I think the question is more when…somewhere around the time of the French Revolution 

Vengeance

Therese! Who has seen her?

Therese Defarge! 

Inoria

I know that name… 

Knitting French Woman

She never missed before. 

CHAINSAW FRED

Ancient ancestor of yours? 

Hawkqueen

No. It’s the name of one of the characters in Charles Dicken’s novel, “A tale of Two Cities” 

Inoria

No, don’t you understand, somehow we’ve been transported not to another time, but another dimension entirely. I would suspect it a reflection of the collective unconscious.

Fred, Hawkqueen and Inoria grab Grenademan’s Cape. 

GRENADEMAN

YOU DON’T TUG ON GRENADEMAN’S CAPE. YOU DON’T SPIT IN THE EYE OF THE OLD LONE RANGER AND YOU DON’T MESS AROUND WITH MY CAPE. EMPHASIS ON THE CAPE PART. HINT, THAT’S MY CAPE. 

Fred

So what are we supposed to be doing here? 

GRENADEMAN

MY CAPE PLEASE. 

Inoria

Honestly…I have absolutely no idea, but it makes about as much sense as everything else that’s been going on.

GRENADEMAN

YOU ARE GETTING COOKIE CRUMBS ON MY CAPE. WAIT, SORRY, THAT’S FROM DEAD GINGERBREAD MAN.

Inoria grabs Grenademan’s cape. There is a large flash of light and they all vanish.

EXT. REVOLUTIONARY FRANCE - DAY

The four appear inside a rowdy crowd in revolutionary France. A large guillotine sits to one side. No one immediately pays attention to them.

FRENCH PERSON #1

I hear they are up to thirty seven today! 

FRENCH PERSON #2

That’s nothing. Last week they got rid of two hundred and fourteen. 

FRENCH PERSON #1

Let’s get a good front seat. Last time I could see the veins in his neck still pumping.

GRENADEMAN

THE SUPERHEROIC WORK IS A GLORIOUS WORK. 

Inoria

Actually, it’s times like this that I really wonder why I get up in the morning.

 

They blow up the last of the gingerbread men. The Candy Queen cries and runs away.

Hawkqueen

This is almost enough to make me give up chocolate…almost. 

FRED

Right. So how do we get out of here? 

Inoria

That’s a very good question. 

Hawkqueen

You’re supposed to be the technical expert. 

Inoria

Look, I don’t have any idea what was done to us, that doesn’t make it easy to replicate. 

FRED

We know it had something to do with Frank’s cape.  

Hawkqueen

It was of the same formula Thorne was looking for.

Inoria

That’s it. It’s just crazy enough that it might work. Quick, everyone grab hold of his cape…

Well, we eat them, it’s only natural they try and eat us. 

A fight ensues between denizens of candy land and the heroes. The gingerbread men charge them. Grenademan tosses grenades. Inoria shocks them, Hawkqueen cleaves them in two with her talons (retractable), and Chainsaw Fred liberally applies his chainsaw to them.  

GRENADEMAN

FEEL THE WRATH OF MY GRENADES OH FOUL DEMONS OF CANDY! 

FRED

Look, Frank…since there is a remote chance we might not get out of this, seeing as how we’re out numbered by about-well the entire population of Candy Land to four, I wanted to apologize for hitting you. 

GRENADEMAN

Chainsaw Fred cuts more gingerbread men in half while Grenademan tosses more grenades.

FRED

Look, I realize that there might not be much left of you in there right now, but someday you might come back. I love you, you’re my brother. But this super hero stuff, people that get mixed up in this. Well, I mean, look around, I don’t want this sort of thing happening to my kids. 

Writing Update

So far so good. I'm behind where I wanna be, but I've got three stories complete so far, Skip's story, Making the Demon and Raising Timmy.  Raising Timmy seems to have the most potential of the three but it will require some rewrites.  All of them will.  I'm sitting on em for three months, then I'll do an edit, and then wait for three more before another edit pass and submitting for publiciation (ie rejection) but I'm learning from past improvements and time helps a lot.

Working on two more stories that I just started. I'm trying to do them both at the same time, and I'm mainly trying to write more during the day and night to get myself ready for NaNoWrMo and..failing miserably.  I'm mainly writing at night and weekends, which just won't do for....you know, that name is a pain to write, let's call it Death Month, shall we? Anyway, I'm gonna start notes on characters and plot outline here likely in April.

Podcast is chugging along nicely.  I sometimes have 10 people listening to it. I think my voice actor has some fans :D He is good at reading for GMVZ.  I'm getting a mike delivered this week but will likely resume reading sometime in April.

Finally, since I have a goal to write 3 scripts this year and Tossing Grenade Vs Windmills is going to run out in April or may, I'll need SOMETHING to replace it for the blog....Unfood will last a while, but I do  plan on doing another short film some time next year, and I'll likely start with the strongest of the three scripts I write this year.

Make it stop! Make the evil stop! 

GRENADEMAN

EVIL?! THERE IS EVIL ABOUT? 

CANDY QUEEN

No, there is no evil about, but please, come sit and join us for a lovely meal. 

CHAINSAW FRED

There is something defiantly just wrong here. It doesn’t feel good. 

Inoria

I know. Besides being insipid-it just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up-I mean the way they’re looking at us-it’s almost as if they were… 

CANDY CHORUS

Hungry! Hungry Hungry Hungry for some human flesh

Tastes so good with ketchup and a good potato mesh

Gobble up the heroes and throw them in the stew

Creeping up to fill our bellies we’ll all eat you! 

Chainsaw Fred starts his chainsaw.

CHAINSAW FRED

That’s what I thought.

You know it makes sense in a morbid sort of way…

Insipidity is getting rather tangible isn’t it?

CANDY QUEEN

But, but there is no evil in Candy Land. Only happy lovely candy.

It could send you anywhere in time or space, rather than simply scatter your atoms across the cosmos. If I wasn’t so practical, I’d almost envy you your trip.  

Hawkqueen

Trip? 

Fred

TRIP?! I can’t go anywhere I’ve got a family to think of. 

DOC SHADOWS

I’m afraid it’s a bit late for that now. But at least you’re not dead. of course, one could argue that death has its merits. Indeed, one could defiantly argue that.

The device activates and they vanish.

EXT. CANDY LAND - DAY 

A grassy field, a sun lit day, the CANDY QUEEN sits upon her lovely throne in Candy Land with dancing candy canes and ginger bread men happily making merry all about the throne. They are singing. 

Gingerbread Men Candy Canes and Queen

Hawkqueen

God bless you. Maybe you aren’t entirely evil after all. 

DOC SHADOWS

I would have done that as a public service if I had the blackest of hearts. Now, you don’t have much time, seconds in fact. You need to take the acid vial that FRED Noble is using on his wrist chain as we speak.

Fred

Didn’t think there was much point in hiding my thoughts from a telepath. Wasn’t going to volunteer the information either.

Fred breaks free of his chain. 

Inoria

Fred Noble? What-Not that I’m not glad for the help, but I thought you hated anything and everything that had to do with super heroes. 

DOC SHADOWS

You’ll find that there is a great deal about the Noble brothers that you might not ordinarily suspect. Right now, however, I’d place Frank’s cape between yourselves and that rather nasty looking grayish crystal on the far side of the room. 

Inoria

And what will that do. 

DOC SHADOWS

It could send you anywhere in time or space, rather than simply scatter your atoms across the cosmos. If I wasn’t so practical, I’d almost envy you your trip.

DOC SHADOWS

What you see with your eyes is but a mental projection into your minds, while Thorne foolishly believes that I am not present or capable of knowing what he is doing. 

Hawkqueen

And the reason you want to do this is because…? 

DOC SHADOWS

Because as much as I dislike what must be done, I’m determined to do it. That doesn’t mean I want to see you all killed. 

Inoria

Fair enough. So you’re going to help us to escape? 

DOC SHADOWS

Not exactly. I’m going to help you to live. I can’t afford to have you attempt to alter my plans.

No, they’re out of my range for some reason. Hmm, no they seemed to be tied up for some reason. 

Doc Shadows comes back into the room. 

DOC SHADOWS

That would be prudent wouldn’t it? I’ve worked with enough animal empaths to know how dangerous letting them run around can be.

It really is you isn’t it? You’re not dead.

Not for lack of trying I assure you.

You were supposed to be one of the good guys.

In this case, the manner of speaking is directly into your mind.

I remember that. People just kept saying that magic word for days…made him turn into something random every time 

J.R.R. Thorne

The difference between Hopscotch and me, is that I am not some costumed gimp. I am the real deal, and I will be making each and every one of you writhe in agony before I’m done with you. 

Hawkqueen

I fail to see the difference between a costumed moron and a moron who just lives the lifestyle. 

J.R.R. Thorne

The difference is considerable my dear. Considerable.

Hawkqueen, Inoria, Frank, and Fred are all chained to a wall. Doc Shadows and J.R.R. Thorne enter. There are gleaming control panels all about. The device they saw before is now in front of them. 

DOC Shadows

Ah, I see you’re awake.  

J.R.R. Thorne

Just in time for me to reveal my evil plan. 

DOC SHADOWS

If you don’t mind, I’ve got things to do. This is nothing I haven’t heard before. 

Inoria

I didn’t think ANYONE revealed their evil plans anymore. Not after Hopscotch made a fool of himself on national television.
