Here is the moment some of you have been waiting for, the sequel to ‘Paths to the Secrecy of War’! It takes place after ‘Homecoming’, so there’s no Rose or Huntsclan, and it’s at the end of June, so no school. And don’t worry; there are no spoilers from PttSoW that haven’t been on it yet. So… read away.
Prologue: Boredom
“I am so bored.” groaned Shade, Florence, Josh, Toph, Jake, Spud, and Trixie all at the same time.
“Hey, you know what’d be a hoot?” Shade whispered into Spud’s ear.
“What?” He whispered back.
“If we played a joke on Old Man Foxworthy. I have this costume in my house—” began Shade, but Spud cut him off.
“Enough said. Let’s go and do it.” He giggled a little.
“Why don’t we all go inside?” suggested Shade.
“Sure, we can play video games or something.” Jake muttered as he shrugged. They all slowly walked inside, but Spud stayed out.
“Hurry up….” Spud grumbled to himself. He saw a shadow come out from the door and Dark Shade appeared with a top hat, a long, grey coat, and a mustache.
“Eee hee hee hee! Shade is back there and making sure that we don’t get caught.” explained Dark Shade as he put the top hat on his head and mustache on his upper chin.
“Let’s just go already!” complained Spud angrily. Dark Shade groaned and floated on his shoulders. Once on, he put the cloak over Spud and most of himself.
“And off we go.” Dark Shade said with his ‘adult and mature’ voice. Spud walked the body across the street and to Old Man Foxworthy’s home.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Ding dong! That was the sound of the doorbell.
“Eh, hello?” answered the crabby old man.
“Good day, old sir. I am, uh… Arthur Timberspud. I need your trash for the needy.” ‘Arthur’ said. Foxworthy gave them a strange look.
“Why do the needy need my trash?” wondered him.
“Why, it’s elementary school, my dear Watson. The needy need! It’s their thing. Therefore, they also need trash!” responded Arthur as he smiled.
Back at the house, Jake, Trixie, Josh, and normal Shade were playing video games. Toph was juts sitting on a bean bag chair and Florence was standing and looking out the window.
“Oh no!” she said quietly when she saw Arthur talking to Foxworthy. She opened the window and sneakily left without other noticing.
“And so I will now take your trash, specifically any paper goods you may have thrown out.” Arthur said with Spud having his hand out in waiting for the trash.
“Yoo-hoo!” called out Florence with her right hand up and running to the trench coat man. Or men, “There you are.”
“You know him?” Foxworthy asked Flo.
“Sure I do, he’s—” Florence began, but was cut off. This was a good thing, however, because she didn’t know what to call him.
“She’s my girlfriend!” Arthur quickly said. Flo twitched with the thought of being involved with Dark Shade and/or Spud.
“Yes. I’m his girlfriend.” Florence said slowly while grinding her teeth slowly.
“How ‘bout a kiss, snookums?” asked Arthur, puckering his lips and waiting. This made Flo grin.
“Bring it on, baby.” answered Flo as she puckered her lips too and made kissy noises.
“Eew! You kiss your babies with that mouth?” complained Arthur as he pulled back from a kiss.
“Uh, you two have children?” Foxworthy wondered, looking at Florence with slight confusion.
“Sixty-four.” Arthur simply answered, eying Foxworthy with a simple face with his eyes half open and his mouth just straight. Flo couldn’t twitch out of how annoyed she was with Dark Shade.
“Yes… I have sixty-four lovely children.” groaned Flo with her teeth still grinding together.
“What were their names again, honeybunch?” Arthur wondered, looking back down at Florence.
“Uhhm… Vince. Uh… Melinda…” Florence slowly said, trying to think name off the top of her head.
“Don’t forget Flopsy, Stupid, Crazy, and Ding Dong!” Arthur exclaimed with a smile. Florence face palmed herself and Foxworthy just widened his eyes and opened his mouth awkwardly.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
“SPUD AND SHADE!” Florence yelled at Spud and normal Shade once they were back at the house and Dark Shade went away.
“We’re sorry, it’s just after the Huntsclan died out and Adlez is rebuilding the new Huntsclan, there’s nothing to do!” Shade argued back. Flo rolled her eyes and just sighed.
“That may be true, but it’s not a good enough reason for you to just go to an old man’s house and ask for his trash!” answered Flo angrily. Then she slowly calmed down.
“What else could we do?” Spud asked.
“Else? What do you mean else?” Flo asked as if she had forgotten what happened.
“You know what we mean, don’t act like you forgot what went on.” muttered Shade as he perked up an eyebrow.
“Oh, I have no recollection of the event in question.” She simply answered with a smile on her face.
“No recollection? But Florence…” Shade groaned slowly with sorrow, following her into the house. Spud just shrugged and followed them both.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
YAAAAY.
