Cab can't stop laughing, if he had eyes right now they would be leaking. All Sunny can do is just stomp around with his hands thrown up in the air still raging about his 'Unfair' death. Tom tries placating him "Hey man It's not my fault, my teammates didn't ping enemy missing and our Jung bought wards but decided not to place them."
"Where do your teammates live?" Sunny asks just a little too calmly. "Your going to punish mortals over a game? That's petty even by your standards Sunny" Hotten replies saving Tom the trouble of explaining how online gaming works.
Noticing Cabs unusual silence Tom turns around to see that he's gone.. "Uh hey I know you two are arguing right now but Cab's missing.." Tom says causing the two glowing figures to look his was before Hotten sighs
"Men.. why do they always cause so much trouble, if they aren't killing each other for 'glory' the get lost and say it was an 'adventure' or some other cr@p. I'll help you look for him Tom He can't have gone far".
As Tom and Hotten walk through the jungle Sunny stays behind to cheer himself on. "Go you Beautiful Glorious Scarab, Show that Lightning b@$t@rd what real divinity looks like!!."
After walking in silence for a few moments Hotten speaks up "You're quite the odd one Tom.. Most humans either fall to their knees the moment they see a god or flat out deny our existence, but you.. you acted slightly startled at first but you seem to have grown accustomed to us rather fast."
"Well it's probably because you guys act a little bit like some people I know.. now if you and Cab were as loud and demanding as Sunny I probably would have been to afraid to go back to sleep again.. but you helped me get back to my own plane and Cab doesn't seem to know what serious means.. Besides I still think you guys might be on the bored side otherwise you could have just stayed quiet and I would have just thought you were pillars of light."
Even though she doesn't really have eyes Hotten turns to look into Tom's "How would you have found your way home if I stayed quiet? do you have someone to shake you awake everyday?" Tom blinks a few times trying to think of a response "Ok you got me. But how did I call you there? like it could have been any of the gods so why was it the three of you? and why was Sunny the first one to show up?"
Hotten laughs before turning away "Just because we're gods doesn't mean we're all knowing Tom.. otherwise we wouldn't need to look for Cab I would just find him."
Tom just shrugs and continues searching with Hotten. After a few more minutes they see the Bee/man floating through the jungle with Cab following closely. "kill the beetle kill the beetle kill the beetle..." Tom smiles wryly when he hears Cab chanting as if he thinks it can affect his character.
At this point in the game Tom placed wards and his teams Izanami Built pure attack speed and damage, Bee boy is in for a surprise and Tom can't wait see how Cab reacts to what happens next. "Let's hurry you're going to wanna see this Hotten" Tom shouts as he takes off running.
Thirty minutes later and the jungle disappeared leaving the four of them standing in the abyss once again. Sunny is ecstatic "Hahaha you thought that little stinger could crack my shell? it was amazing to watch you getting dragged under that amazing tower into your own doom."
"Shut up Sunny.. why do you get to revive yourself and I can't even turn into a swarm of bees to avoid getting hurt" Cab sulks away while Sunny gloats about all the 'fools' that 'he' crushed. "Hmm it was a very interesting game nonetheless Tom maybe we should get a group together one day.."
Tom turns to look at Hotten "Huh? wait how would we even do that?" Sunny chimes in almost glowing "No need to worry about that Tom we can handle the little things you just need to go back to the mortal plane for a while and we will set everything else up.. but first" Sunny gestures to Hotten whom reaches out and touches Tom's forehead as she pulls her finger away a small purple bubble comes with it.
"This is just a copy of your memory Tom nothing personal just everything you know about that game.. ok now close your eyes and go back to bed we have some work to do."
"Umm ok guess I'll see you later?" as Tom closed his eyes he could hear Hotten's voice "Bye Tom and don't come back for at least a week!"
Tom sat up in his bed after opening his eyes and looks at the clock.. It's only been five minutes "What the Hell I thought I was in there for at least an hour or two.." Tom gets up and goes into the kitchen to make himself some hot cocoa as he boils some milk Larry comes up from the basement. "Make me some too? I'm craving some chocolate like crazy"
Mike takes his headset off while he let's out a sigh "I'll take some to if you don't mind?" a victory animation of Bardock on screen shows his win over Chelsea and the laptop to the right of him has her screaming and cussing.. apparently she figured out who's voice was on the other side..
As the three boys relaxed and drank cocoa Chelsea signed of twitch and made a phone call "Hey Mari did I wake you up?" a somewhat lazy reply came through the speaker of her phone "Nah I just got out of the shower but I was about to go to sleep.. what's up girl?" "Mike stomped me with one of Tom's Smurf accounts on xenoverse 2.. I'm gonna call Vicky if she's up are you down for shenanigans?"
. . . . . .
"What do you have in mind?" Chelsea could almost hear Mari smiling. "We're going to war!"
