We have reached Chapter ONE HUNDRED of Badasses Of the Multiverse!

Chang, River, and Lee, have called off their hunt for Pedro and Matthew, to returned to the casino in De La Plata Podrido, and resume their lives.

Meanwhile, Hernan and Roberta put their plan in motion to inform Hernan's family of the truth of what is going on.

Well. Good news and bad news. The good news is, this little bit is coming out mainly to explain some of the wheels behind the next chapter of summer mutation, which is about half done. The bad news is, both of these little blurbs were originally meant to be part of chapters expressing the points of view of the characters involved, from the beginning of the tale.

But I have too many irons in the fire as is, so you get a synopsis of sorts. This is mainly so that I can keep writing those other things I'm writing. Perhaps far into the future I'll take another look at such things.but for now we all just have to make do.

Hope you enjoy it.

In De La Plata Podrido, Revy is still contemplating if she wanted to agree to the deal with the mysterious woman she met.

Also, Hernan and Roberta talk about how to handle the situation they have found themselves in, in a manner, in which, Hernan's family will take the news of the trouble about them, in a positive manner.

Meanwhile Pedro and Matthew decided to go out for a cup of coffee. They forget what reality they wanted to go two. With the two of them landing into more trouble than they realize. With someone accidentally hitching a ride with them.

For these people, it is just Shades of Crazy.

Don't be afraid to tell me if there are things you think could be improved. I'm new to this and want to learn to be a better writer.

I was just one of the guys. I mean, we all were doing it. But why me? Why only me?

It was the night of my school's annual back to school party. It was rather cold outside, but my friends and I wanted to go anyway.

The night started off normal enough. I swam for a little bit. I ate some food. Then, my friend John brought out the booze. We managed to sneak a few swigs before we say some of the staff eyeing us, so we tossed it away.

Pedro and Matthew enjoy their first day traveling the multiverse, by traveling around Roanapur, Thailand, of the Black lagoon Reality, of the past, during Roanapur's heyday. With the specific date being, March nineteenth, nineteen ninety-one.

Unfortunately, back in Pedro's home reality, their absence has not gone unnoticed, by both friends the two men have, and friends the two men may not realize they have. With these individuals desiring to return the two wayward travelers back to the city of De La Plata Podrido, before they get into some serious trouble.

It has been a month and a week since Lee returned to De La Plata Podrido, and things have settle down for Lee.

Chang asks River and Lee for some ideas to help business with his casino. And their ideas are nothing, if not inventive.

Unfortunately, later on, people that Lee knows intend to through a party, which River and Chang intend for Lee to attend.

As one can guess, Lee does not want to attend this party, and hilarity ensues.

And that is only just the beginning.

Lee is now back in Plata Podrido. And in a good situation in her life. Now, she is going to touch base with her friends in town. And see what is going on. And maybe even have some fun, while she does so.

The revenge continues. Though, River's plan to get Lee out of this mess, comes to fruition. With the Lee realizing the consequences of the plan, and what it means for her future.

River begins her quest, with the three amazons, to find Lee.

And when River does find Lee, she realizes Lee is closer than she thought. And the situation makes her realize that she cannot run, nor take Lee to Chang.

So, River takes Lee to the last place anyone would expect her to hide Lee.

But, how long can River keep this secret, before Lee is found? And what happens once Lee is found out, by everyone else after Lee?

This is final chapter of Volume Two of Book Five of the Gambling Man.

Those after Lee regroup on Lagoon Island, as they figure out what their next move will be, as they plan out how best to capture Lee. While sorting out some more immediate problems.

As this goes on, Revy and Priss will finally have it out, over Priss damaging one of Revy's cutlasses.

Meanwhile, the past finally catches up to several people.

Including Lee. With Lee being forced to face one of his most innocent of victims.

But, though this victim is innocent. That does not mean this person is harmless.

And Garibaldi is becoming increasingly distrustful of Lee. Especially, after the multiverse takes one more swing at both him and Lee.

For this will be Lee's Folly.

Lee has made it into a fortress, run by a man that make those after him think twice to come following Lee into.

A man whom Lee is doing everything in his power to stay on his good side.

At this point, Lee would think that his troubles would start to wane.

Unfortunately, Lee would be incorrect. And Lee problems merely doubled. For nor only a siege on one end of the fortress for Lee. But, also a siege, on the other end of the fortress, whom is after the man Lee is with. And once Lee realizes who is after the man, that those individuals would not think twice about killing Lee.

And to make matters worse, Lee means of escape is going to take time to prepare. With him taking the man with him.

So, if Lee want him, and the man helping him, to get out of this situation alive, and in one piece, Lee has to play a dangerous game, where he will have to shuffle the sieges against each other. In The Siege Shuffle.

Lee has made it deep into the factory complex, as he plays his extreme game of cat and mouse, with those after him.

With him working towards a plan of escape, that only he knows.

Unfortunately, for Lee, and those after him. They are not the only hunters in the factory complex.

Lee would think that he might get at least on evening's peace. But, no. The girls crash the Deco.

Though, Lee still has a gig to do and that is what he is going to do. Fortunately, the way the lighting is on stage, and with his back turned to the audience, the girls don't realize he is the piano player, entertaining them that evening

The only trick is Lee figuring out how to get out the building and away from them, without the girls discovering he is there.

Then, Lee was walking into one of the strangest situations of his life. And Lee learns there are such beings as alien science fiction and fantasy fans.

Also, there other factors that Lee did not know to take account before. Both good and bad, that Lee will have to handle, one way or another.

For Lee is caught in the rat maze, and now he must workout how to escape before he is captured.

Lee begins his escape into the multiverse, by jumping to another time, place, and reality.

Unfortunately, Lee quickly realizes his foes are onto him. With Lee trapped on a large passenger liner spaceship, with two very cunning adversaries.

And Lee is beginning to regret that he did not take the opportunity to learn Russian, during his experiences in the time loop.

Though, this does not mean that Lee is not going to have a little fun in the situation had has found himself.

Because what lunatic does not laugh in the face danger?

Meanwhile, Pedro has found the deepest, furthermost rock, he knows up, to hide under. Now, he hopes that he can stay hidden.

Just after Lee was revealed to be the writer, Lee was able escape into the multiverse. With all the hard work and planning done by Rock, Revy, and their crew, coming completely undone.

Now, these women must all each have a plate, from a buffet of crow, as they come to terms with their momentary defeat. While they review the information, and plan their next moves, in capturing their elusive foe.

All the while, River will get her chance to present Lee's defense, to their proverbial jury of the damned.
