The After Party

"Must be that spider-DNA, kid, you're healing faster than most people do," the doctor said to me as he looked over my torso and then at my chart, almost as if in embarrassment. Granted, he was looking at a rather attractive sixteen year old girl, and he was old enough to be my father, so he could very well have thought this somewhat inappropriate. "Three days and you're ready to head back out there."

The Punchline

"I'm swingin' in the rain! I'm swingin' in the rain!" I sang as I swung through, well, the rain. Sure, my suit was incredibly wet, but it was still fun to swing through the rain, on my way to beat up some bad guys who thought a thunderstorm was the best time to rob liquor stores or gas stations or...

Apparently, comic book shops.

I must have looked as bad as I felt; as soon as I staggered into the bathroom, it seemed like all the girls stopped to gawk, open-mouthed, at me.

It is a New York Rhapsody.

Whateley Academy

Introduction: The year is 2076, not that is extremely important. The story takes place at the same time as Five Love Stories en Brochette; much of it at the same time as the last chapter of that story. It has been almost six years since that story was published here. In that story, Scott Adams is briefly mentioned in a couple of sentences near the beginning, and once again in the epilogue. Wren Phoenix thought it might be nice to know a bit more about Scotty Adams. I’m sorry, Wren, that it took so damn long to get around to it.

Jake Adams is dead, and he won’t be missed by anyone. This tale is not over by a long shot. Finally, Scott is free to be who she really is. It isn’t quite that easy. There are many loose ends that must be tied up and hurdles that must be cleared before that can start. What happened to her mother?

Scott meets Mr. Joe, and Joe Esterházy becomes very concerned very quickly. He knows who Scott’s parents are, and he doesn’t think much of Jake. There is a major family get together that weekend and they come up with a solution to put a stop to Scott’s hitchhiking. The oldest of his three sisters, Persi, suggests that Jake Adams probably killed Scott’s mother. He had a history of beating up prostitutes.

Scott’s mother disappears when Scott enters seventh grade. He no longer has the buffer of his mother to protect him from his father. He also discovers the comfort of dressing in his mother’s clothing. That does not turn out well when he is discovered. Scott has figured out how to get away from his father for most of the day, Monday through Friday, during the summer. Still, he has to deal with him on the weekends.

This starts out as a very dark tale. There is physical abuse, and there is a murder. That won’t be any secret when it happens. The murderer is pretty obvious. Scotty Adams is a resourceful child caught in a very nasty situation. If you read Five Love Stories en Brochette you know that things work out, so that’s not a big secret. However, how did things work out? That’s where this little tale in five parts takes us.

Bob is back in town, from his adventure in other reality. And he feeling better than ever.

Bob even has a new girl in his life, that wants to have fun, and she brings out the best in him.

Unfortunately, Bob's boss wants answers about what happened to him, and she is going to get those answers.

Also, someone from out of town is about to thrown in Bob a few curve-balls, that he might have some trouble with.

It is just a new adventure in the exciting life that Bob hoped. Now, the question is, can he handed his new exciting life?

In Chapter Two: “From Aspen to Adventure.”

With Chang defeated, the survivors have settled the issues of the Tower, and they have scattered to the four winds of the multiverse.

This chapter is about where some of them ended up.

In the chapter, “Where they are now.”

Caution: Mature Subject Matter Discussed.

We have now reached the climax of book two of this anthology. Rock and her teams finally face off against Chang's organization. With an ending that will probably leave you wanting more.

The the title of the chapter, says it all: “Babes, Boomers, and Badasses.”

Caution: Nudity, Mildly Suggestive Sexual Scenes, and Mild Adult Language.

Past, present, and future literally collide, as Rock and her team form their plans against Chang, and his organization.

The only thing more insane than the members of their group, are their plans.

With whom they are asking for help maybe arguably more insane than they are.

Then, as Rock and her team, collect the people around the multiverse, that they need to implement their plans, Rock runs into someone, in a friendly manner, that she did not expect to see so soon.

Caution: Nudity and Sexual Situations.

Get ready. Because the action and the insults are about to fly.

It is John Crichton versus Balalaika and Hotel Moscow.

And Hotel Moscow has never faced someone like John before.

Also, Rock will have an important decision to make.

This chapter is a day in the life for the villains of this story. On with how Chang created his empire. Going from mob boss to overlord.

Also, included is the giant bachelor pad that Chang calls his office, in his Tower.

And Rock realizes he needs to get some more help for his team. And he know exactly who to ask.

SIX WEEKS LATER

I blink my eyes awake and roll over in bed, only to be stopped by an unexpected face full of blonde hair that isn’t my own. Turning my head to the other side, another long mop of blonde hair- again, not my own- blocks my view. Once I’ve blinked the early morning tiredness- and a moderate hangover- out of my eyes, the previous night’s events return to my memory.

“Krys,” I whisper, gently nudging the sleeping woman on my left-hand side. “Han, wake up!” I whisper to the slumbering figure on my right.

My thanks first of all to Penny, for her help, her kindness and her creation, into which waters I tentatively dip my toes.
Also to Julia who has guided me faithfully.

Mistakes are, however, down to my account, not theirs.

This is dedicated to all those fans of Anmar who wondered what the Einnlanders did.
