Kupo!
06-11-06, 06:05 PM
“I’ve been working on the Railrooooaddd, all the Kipo day!” It had been like that for the last hour and a half. An ear piercing scream of a very old children’s rhyme, butchered by a small yellow sheep like creature known only as a Yan. The potential to destroy the world, wasted in one small creature that preferred to skip and dance and preach about the round guy.
Not that anyone really cared. Considering the only people surrounding the Yan was a moogle with a hangover, a cactus like creature with a moustache painted on it, and a turtle like creature with a lantern in its hand, and a rusty knife in the other. He wasn’t much help. Every once in a while the cactus would sing along (or shout out obscene expletives, nobody really knows which…) with the added words of, “Boi, Boi, Boi, BOIIII!” And if things got to out of place, the turtle would poke a rock and say in a very grim, whispery voice, “Doink!” and things would remain awkwardly silent for the next few moments until the process repeated.
So how do a moogle, a Yan, a cactus, and a turtle end up in a situation like this? Well it’s rather simple when a moogle alchemizes a new type of iron…weaker than the first and sells millions of gold worth and gets assaulted by the long arm of the law (multiple times mind you) and enslaved to the fraction known as the Tezzi, the mages fraction. Why they couldn’t call themselves a Faction nobody truly knew, but that wasn’t up to Duke the Moogle to decide.
“Kupo, how long have we been at this?” Duke asked Tim, his Yan friend.
“Twenty minutes, Kipo!” Sorry Duke, looks like the narrator screwed that up. (ATTENTION ALL READERS, REPLACE THE FIRST LINE ‘It had been like that for the last hour and a half.’ AND REPLACE WITH ‘It had been like that for the last twenty minutes.)
The moogle frowned his furry head, looking to the sky as if cursing something.
“GET BACK TO WORK BEFORE THE GREAT VIN TEZZIM EATS YOU!” a guard shouted.
“BLOW IT UP YOUR KIPO YOU KIPO!” Tim yelled back. Duke just shook his head.
“WHAT IN GODS NAME IS A KIPO?” The guard shouted back confused.
“IT’S KUPO!” Duke shouted to the sky, raising his hands to the side as if cursing some unknown burden he was forced carry. “KUPO FOR THE LOVE OF KUPO, IT’S KUPO!”
“YA KIPO!” the yan added.
“Ok, WHO IS KUPO KIPO?” The guard shouted again. Duke was on the verge of killing something, but the turtle coughed silently and poked a rock.
“Doink.” He said in a dead whisper. The atmosphere suddenly grew quiet.
“Why the hell do I feel intimidated?” The Guard said loudly. “LUNCH!” At the prospect of food the cactus, turtle and Yan all walked up the path following a few other strange people, a human, a lizard like person, and another human. (He wasn’t there at first, but now I see him.) Duke wondered how his luck could be so…cruddy. Then he thought about the guy known as Karel Raven. And soon he realized one thing, he didn’t have it nearly as hard as that man. All the events he had to go through, all the battles, and the deaths. It made Duke want to vow for something.
“I vow never to blow my problems out of proportion, Kupo!” The moogle said. He could feel a presence nodding in agreement, and then he walked on.
