"Very funny Mari, now I gotta go wash my face real.." THWAP Before Tom could finish his sentence a wet rag gets thrown and slaps him in the face. "Thanks.." As Tom wipes his face clean he looks up to see Mari is gone.
"Seriously.. what are we ten? you've never beat me at hide and seek before and you won't now" Tom walks through the house checking behind the couches and in the kitchen he decides to look in the basement since the door was left slightly ajar. "You down here Mari?" Tom asks as he flicks the lights on and off making ghost noises.
"hmm alright maybe the bathroom" Tom runs up the stairs and knocks on the bathroom door. "I'm about to open in five seconds so it's your fault if you're not decent!" he shouts counting to five out loud before creaking the door open and cutting on the light.. only to find her old clothes and a towel on the ground. *hmm if I yell out her bra size she might come out.. or just hit me when I find her* .
Deciding against his bad thoughts for fear of retaliation Tom checks his dad's room then the study... "Dude seriously Mari why are you in my room? you already found the worst.." Tom stops complaining after going into his room last only to see Mari sitting on his bed smirking while holding the half jar of wine.
"Dishes are done." "yes.. they are?" Tom answers confused, "And everyone is gone" Mari blushes a little and fidgets with the jar lid.
"Uh huh, here let me help you" Tom reaches for the jar and unscrews the lid. "You know what that means?" Mari whispers while getting close to Tom's face. As Tom opens his mouth Mari screams "Smite Night!!!" and starts laughing, "You should look at your face Tom you're redder than Larry's hair haha I told you that you had to be the..."
Tom kissed Mari on the lips mid sentence and walked away laughing while she sat there stunned. "Grab your laptop Mari I'll play support if you wanna carry." Mari stormed after Tom finding him at his dad's desktop.
"You did not just steal my first kiss like that!!" "Well I gave you my first kiss for it so we're even" "BULL!! that is not how that works Tom". "You should have seen your face.." Tom replied while mimicking Mari's accent after booting up the computer and feeling Mari staring daggers into his neck Tom turns around.
"Fine I'm sorry I was so sneaky Mari, how can I make up for.." Mari kissed Tom before saying "Just don't feed and I'll forgive you this time.. next time you try that though we better be dating" "Deal" Tom replied while grinning like a goof ball.
The two of them played smite for about an hour before finally getting a very close win. "Christ man we would have won ages ago if that Chronos didn't feed so hard." Mari complained while Tom cracked his knuckles before replying "Tell me about it, who knew Jorm and Skadi make such a good combo though".
The intense match helped knock some of the tension out of the air between them. "So you ready for me to drop you off? cause I gotta start working on my ride soon and once I tear
it down it won't be running till the morning.."
Mari looks at Tom and smirks. "Who says I'm not trying to stay the night?"
Before Tom could say anything Mari shoves him and continues "I'm joking Tom yeah I'm ready to go home" Mari walks out and collects her things from around the house. After they get in the jeep Mari turns up the music just as domination kicks on. "Soo romantic" She says sarcastically.
"I have some old crooners music in my CD case if you want?" "No thanks I'd rather this" as Tom drives Mari home they stayed quiet as Pantera played in the background. After Tom dropped Mari off he went straight home and pulled the jeep into the side of the garage he leaves empty for car repair.
After taking the valve covers off Tom gets a Skype call from Larry. "Hey man the youth group is about to start you ready to get your Jesus on?" Shortly after Tom See's Mike smack the back of Larry's head lightly "None of that in the Lord's house, Hey Tom" "What's up Mike I'll be listening I'm gonna mute my Mic though so the power tools don't interrupt you guys". "No problem man".
Tom mutes his mic and syncs his phone to the Bluetooth speakers so he can listen in as he works. Apparently today's lesson is about the book of Job. As Mike takes questions and gives out a few answers and different parts of the Bible to read, Tom carefully removes his head gaskets and checks for any nicks or pits on the Pistons.
By the time Mike's study group finishes Tom got to a decent stopping point and took his mic off mute. "How does Satan talk to God if God sent him to Hell and forbid him from heaven?".
Mike pauses and realized it was Tom on Larry's phone, "That's a good question Tom, in this part of the Bible a lot of confusion is caused by improper translation, The 'Satan' they're talking about is actually the Hebrew word for opposer or accuser, Basically it's not Satan the devil but one of gods angels who were asking him, kinda like an attorney at court wanting evidence of guilt, or in this case innocence or piety."
A voice Tom didn't recognize chimes in "So are there other parts of the Bible like this?" To which Mike replied "More than we can count or know of, see the Hebrew language is very complex and depending on sentence structure the words can have different meanings...." as Mike continued on more and more people raised even more questions. Tom muted his mic again and continued working on his car.
About an hour later Mike's youth group ended and as they all walked out Mike walked over to Larry and picked up the phone to look at Tom. "Hey man youth groups over you need a hand working on your jeep? I could probably get my dad to drop me and Larry off" Larry chimes in "Your just trying to avoid going over the video with your old man" Mike shoots a nasty look at Larry "Shut up dude, so what do you say Tom?".
Tom takes his mic off mute again before replying "I could always use a hand man come on over." "Alright we'll be there in thirty" Mike says before hanging up.
I have no thoughts but don't wanna leave this empty for some reason.. BTW anyone here play smite? I enjoy jungling occasionally but mostly main mid to keep the F∆ckups off my team.. seriously who takes an assassin mid on ranked makes me wanna throat hug people with both hands I swear
Tom wiped his hands clean of grease and got ready for Mike and Larry to show up. He decided his room is going to be his alone tonight, so he set up the living room and threw the extra blankets and pillows on the couch.
Before they got there Tom decided to Febreze bomb the house and hide the bong in case Mr schulz asked to come inside. After making sure everything looked right Tom went back to his jeep. Just as Tom closed the garage door Larry texted him saying they were pulling down his driveway.
Before Tom could get up to greet them he heard the car doors close and Mike saying goodbye to his father as the car left. "Tom you out here?" Larry shouted as he entered the garage. "Yeah man right here" Tom called from under the hood.
With the extra hands Tom was able to throw everything back together after cleaning up all the parts, he still couldn't find anything wrong with the engine so he just topped the oil off with some motor honey and prayed it would work.
After everything was put back together he cranked up the Jeep and let it idle for a few minutes to let the motor honey spread throughout the engine before revving the engine up. Luckily the rattling noise was gone.
"Alright! at least the beast won't blow up on me anytime soon" Tom said after cutting the car off. "You guys wanna troll Chelsea? I'll bet she's been playing since she got home" Mike asked as they went inside.
"You guys go ahead I'm gonna call Vic" Larry said as he grabbed a pillow and blanket before heading down stairs. "Well looks like it's just you Mike, I'm tired as Hell and need to catch some shut eye" Tom left Mike alone in the living room and went to shower before going to sleep.
As Tom laid in bed he could hear Mike talking smack to someone over the mic, it sounds like he found Chelsea. After a few minutes of listening in Tom decided to cut on some music to help him go to sleep. As system of the down played in the background he finally drifted off..
"Well hello again everybody.." Tom was back in the strange place with the pillars of light seemingly waiting there. "Welcome back Thomas.. you must have missed us to bee back so soon" The yellow pillar answered Tom first while the white and green pillars remained silent.
"So you guys know my name but I don't know yours.. feels kind of weird" Tom says while looking between the three pillars "Names are powerful here Thomas, so you shouldn't say ours.. but you may call me Cab" the yellow pillar seems to be the chatty one of the three.
"Well it's nice to meet you Cab and could you please call me Tom? I feel like I'm in trouble when people say my whole name.." Tom can hear a slight buzzing noise emanating from the pillar slightly similar to laughter. "Sure Tom but you should know most mortals would feel honored to have us speak there names.
The first pillar grows brighter and brighter as it's voices echoes across the darkness. "Silence! enough idle chatter, Why are we here Thomas I have more import.." Before he could finish speaking Cab interrupts him. "He asked to be called Tom, and I believe he does not wish to bee here anymore than you do."
At this point the third pillar speaks up. "I agree with 'Cab', it appears we are all trapped here together 'Dung beetle'.. A little civility amongst fellow prisoners may be in order.."
The first light grows even brighter almost blinding Tom as it surges. "I dare you to try and order me again!! Do not think I am against putting you in your place merely because you are a woman, if not for this 'Dung beetle' Your people would have never seen the light of day.."
Before the tirade could continue the green pillar swelled in size equal to the first pillar. "You forget yourself.. long since has passed the time of ancient Egypt at least there are still tribes in the recesses of Africa whom worship my name, you are only known in history books and pictures scrawled upon stone".
As the two pillars fought Cab spoke out, "Umm you're scaring the mortal, maybe you two should introduce yourselves and the four of us can figure out a way out of here?"
"She started it.. but fine, you may call me.. Sunny seeing as there is no word in your guttural language to properly address this will do." As Tom tried really hard not to laugh at the fact that the @$$hole of the group gave himself that name the third voice chimed in.
"You can call me Hotten if you wish, So tell me Tom is there anything special you can think of that caused you to come here?". Tom paused to think for a moment before replying "It's nice to meet you Hotten but I'm sorry I can't think of anything special happening before I came here, I just went to sleep Everytime I came here, I didn't do any ritual dance or eat anything special.."
Tom's voice trails off as he thought about his mom's necklace and reached for his chest just to find that the necklace was gone. Frantically he starts looking around before Cab Chimes in "Did you lose something?"
"My dad gave me a necklace that my mom used to wear all the time before she passed away.. the first night I fell asleep with it on was the first time I came here." Tom replied while trying to trace his steps back to where he first appeared.
"You can stop searching Tom there is nothing here that I cannot see and there is no necklace" Sunny says with a slightly softer voice than normal. "Hmm maybe it didn't cross over with me then.." Tom ponders before Hotten began laughing.
"It seems mortals do not remember how astral projecting works.. Tom you are not physically here, none of us are we are merely being forced to project our consciousness's onto this plane. You are only wearing clothes and in the shape of your body because that is how you view yourself".
"Oh.. that kind of makes sense, otherwise Larry couldn't have shook me awake last time, well anyways that necklace is the only thing different from any other time I fell asleep, but why did it bring you three here?".
"A necklace can't bring us here Tom, you have some kind of connection to us that brought us here. You might even bee able to bring others, But I wouldn't risk it not everyone is as polite about being 'Kidnapped' as we've beeeen."
"Ok I hate to but I have to agree with 'Sunny' the bee puns are getting rather old rather fast." Hotten says causing Cabs pillar to dim a little as if it had it's feelings hurt before he mumbles. "The Mayans had a better appreciation of humor.."
ugh I don't wanna go back to work tonight Noooo I refuse to go back, You can't make me!!! 'Sees list of bills' D@MNIT! I gotta go...
