Day 299: Loonatics

Ken and Phil are talking

Ken: You sure everything is better this way?

Phil: I never expected you to question that. If you could save one of tjem... why would you choose the Fragment? Or put it this way. Which would you rather suffer the loss of: some make-believe friendship, or a real one? Things are finally right again. Of course we're better of this way. Enma is exasperated from wll the "fixing" we've had to do. We have to set things right. There is simply too much on the line... Kevin.

At the Round Room

Buster and his Friends are sitting on their chair

Buster: We need to know.

Enma: About what?

Buster: Roderick and his Friends. Tell us what happened to them?

Enma: Roderick and his Friends is a valued members of the Organization Animals. But they need their rest. So don't be worried.

Flashback started

They were at the Darkness to see Enma and then he said to them

Enma: Loonatics.

Flashback ended

Buster: Loonatics. Who are the Loonatics?

Enma: They are Superheroes, and they are your Teacher's Grandchildren.

Buster: What?

Enma: The Connection. They are what makes you, your friends, Roderick and his Friends a part of each other's lives. And the reason I placed Roderick and his Friends among our numbers. If you want them to stay that way, I must insist you get your minds off these needless distractions. I will have Roderick and his Friends return to their duties tomorrow. Today, you must focus on yours.

Buster: Okay.

They left the Round Room and they saw Ken

Ken: Hey, you guys.

They look away of him because he hurt Roderick and his Friends

Back at the Round Room

Phil: Are you certain we've taken suitable measures with Roderick, Buster and Their Friends?

Enma: I will admit, Roderick and his Friends has strayed from our original designs. However, we are also seeing interesting side effect.

Phil: You sure?

Enma: The key. Roderick and his Friends was affected by Buster and his Friends just as we had anticipated. This was in fact what we had hoped to achieve... But then, through Buster, Ace himself began to shape "it" into "him," giving Roderick a sense of identity. Our plan seemed like a failure at this point... but then it occurred to me. Roderick is keeping Ace's memories trapped by claiming them as his own. Keeping close to Buster will ultimately pervent. Ace from ever waking.

Phil: I see what you mean. And what about the Imposter?

Enma: See that he stays away from Buster and his Friends. He is merely an impurity that would make Roderick's existence incomplete.

Phil: Then we shall return to our original plan.

Back to Memory Skyscraper
