Operation Quixote: The Fifth Musketeer

[Armonica_Templar]

An asian man steps his boot down on the fencing sword, snapping it in half.. "Who do you think you are?" Backhanding the the man dressed in a french musketeer uniform, "Do you think you can just interfere with the Triads?"

The man looks at the asian family holding each other, "They are not property.. I am Count Joushua Abraham Norton the IV.. Grand Son of the emperor of Calexia.." 

To the surprise of the the two thugs holding the Count, He throws them.. One after the other, hit the ground..

The Boss quickly hits the Count knocking him down, "Stay down.. Your just making this harder for everyone.."

The Count charges the boss man and Knocks him down..

The other two members of the Triads tackle the Count knocking him back down..

As the Count struggles, the Boss wipes blood from his mouth. "You broke my tooth.. Stand him up.."

The Two thugs follow the orders.. The other three armed men shake their heads..

"I was just going to hurt you.." Side kicking the Count in the gut, "Know I will..."

The Marine corps hymn fills the Air making everyone try to find the source.. As the lights flicker, A gun fires killing one of the heavily Armed men.

As they fire towards the flash, The count hits one of the thugs holding him knocking him down. 

In the commotion, One of the ones firing goes down from a head shot.

A black figure moves among the rafters as the boss pulls his side arm..

The Count tackles the other man firing after tossing the man holding him to the ground.

The thug tries to stand up but falls over dead from a head shot. The figure seems to be parkouring down the wall as the armed thugs weapon goes flying towards the family..

The boss stops firing, "The Singing Red Crossed Oni.." Laughing as the armored figure is looking at him, "We know of you Captain Colt of the US Navy.. An associate of ours in Chinese Intelligence said if we come across you they will pay our price.. You will not live to see our invasion of the US."

A blade comes flying towards the boss.. Catching the blade easily, the Boss laughs..

The boss's voice comes from Andros, "What is so funny Kwi Coldge Doelan?" Seeing Doelan pause, "We meet again.. You never told the Triads you were the source in Chinese Intelligence did You.. To get to kill you a second time.. Life is good." Andros draws a black sword ..

"Funny Captain," Doelan shakes his head for a second.. 

Reaching the gun, "Do not move criminal.." The Count has the gun leveled, "Good sir.. I would not advise moving."

"Count.. I do apologize for interfering, but when I heard this man's voice.. I owe him. A blood debt." Andros advances on the Chinese intelligence officer, "You see Doelan.. I killed you at Pendelton inside a nursery.."

Doelan freezes, "You.. that is not.." The man falls to his knees, "What.. " Looking as the blade he was now holding properly, "The.. the blade.."

Kwi Coldge Doelan falls face first onto the cement..

Andros walks over to the sound of labored breathing coming from Doelan, "I never get to ask you what in the F#$% type of name is Kwi Coldge Doelan.. " Andros walks over to the scared man, "You must be one of his associates.. Take note.. This is what awaits you at Pendelton.."

andros walks back over to Doelan..

Swinging his sword Andros beheads Kwi Coldge Doelan.. Stopping the head from rolling with his boot, Andros stares down.. He walks around to each of the dead men, repeating the process..

"Captain," the Count swallows hard..

"You fell for the same S#$% twice," Andros laughs. Andros picks up Doelan's head and walks over to the man shaking, "Deliver this to your bosses.. Tell them what I said.. " Speaking in the dead man's older voice, "I do not care if they believe me or not.. Rufus is right, it is the little things in life that count.."

Andros drops the head on the scared man..

"You end his life.. He at least deserves a chance to die on his feet Captain.." The Count looks down at the man, "He is merely a misguided fool.." Andros laughs as the Count Picks up the broken sword, "He deserves to die like a dog.. Stupidity is not ours to execute for.. Captain Colt.. The US Navy works on honor and teamwork.. It fails if either of those key parts are in play.."

Andros glares at the Count for a half second, "You mother F@#$er.." Andros sighs, "Listen to me closely.." The Symbols on the sword are readable by the thug, "The count has moved me.. Take this mans head to a bar named Crystal's Bar, Grill, and Pool hall in San Diego.. Ask for the Admiral and give them the head.."

"The Triads will kill me," The thug is cut by Andros's sword..

"You live ONLY because the count has spoke for your life.. If it was anyone else I would have ran you through," Andros kicks the man in the ribs. "The admiral will trade you.. The information you possess for your life.."

Andros walks over to the family and offers his hand to the elder Chinese man..

The Count reaches down and picks the man up, "Go.. Know this day.. Your life was saved by Count Norton.. Do NOT dishonor me.. Go and take your freedom by the Balls. Make it a good life.."

The Thug is shaking as he sees a homeless man enter from one side of the building.. From the other side two females drop down a rope from the roof..

The Homeless man pulls a forty five, "Grandmaster.." He points it at the Females.. "Do you require assistance?"

Andros turns to the two females and switches to Navajo.. "Take the family to somewhere in the midwest. Wait for the triads.. Those that show up to find them are all yours.." Andros looks at homeless looking man switching to an old language, "The Yee naaldlooshii are with me my loyal Templar.."

One of the Navajo Females walks up to Andros in her human skin covered armor, "Grandmaster.." 

As she kneels, A hologram appears of a Navajo woman. "Dad.. Come home.. Everything can be fixed.."

Andros walks over to the Count who swallows hard. 

"Grandmaster this man.. He is brave but he is insane.. He suffers from multiple personality disorder.. He was discharged dishonorably from the US Army," The templar speaks as the other skin walker is helping the Asian family out of the area. "He attacked the Triads dressed as a musketeer.."

"There are higher truth Templar.." Speaking in the count's voice, "You asked who I am Count Norton.." Andros takes off the face plate of the modified future force armor..

"You are a child," The count looks at the headless bodies.. "How.."

Andros holds his Templar Sword up in Salute, "Joshua Abraham Notron The Forth.. Count of Calexia. Great Grandson of Emperor Norton and defender of the realm.. " The Templar comes to attention.. The Count brings his broken fencing sword up and returns the Salute as Andros speaks, "I.. Andros Nicodemus Colt.. Captain, United States Navy, 2089.. Leader of Marines at the battle of Camp Pendelton.. Grand master Mason of the Mother Lodges of Terra.. Last Great Dinosaur in news.. Secretary of the Senior Committee for a Better Future.. Currently Grandmaster of the Templars.. Being paid as at Captains rank in SPAWAR.. Serving under Admiral Creast as Templar One.." 

the Skin Walkers are at attention with their combat blades in salute, as is Madam Chairman..

"this is bullS#$% he is insane," The templar speaks..

"I greet the fellow brother in arms," Andros finishes the sword salute.

Shaking as he returns the Salute, JA Norton watches as the Skin walkers, Madam chairman, and a reluctant Templar all return his acknowledgement.. "You.. You traveled.." Swallowing hard, "Honored Grandmaster of Templars.. I have naught but my broken sword.. Yet you show me honor.. You aided me in my quest to save the little girl and her family.."


"I .. I humbly beseech you Count.. Your mission today.. Your Quest is not over.. Innocent Men, Women, and children are being harmed in our realm.. The evil hides beneath law and order and is outside its reach.." Andros closes his eyes, "I am hunting a white whale of the chairman's.. Honored future leader of the free world."

Madam Chairman covers her mouth, "My God.. Dad.. We .. It does not exist.. No mass graves.. I personally have hunted for this.."

The count looks Andros in the eyes, "This chairman, you speak of.. He believes innocents are being harmed.. The evil so skilled it has escaped.."

"His Regent's Gaze," Andros sighs..

"The honored Chairman's Regent.. This chairman does not care over how it makes him look being wrong?" The Count was awed, "He sent his Secretary to raise an Army to find this evil and fight it.. Mass Graves? I will NOT stand for this!!" Looking at the hologram, "We must not allow even the possibility of this Honored Regent.. Mr. Secretary.." With his broken fencing sword saluting, "My sword is at your disposal Grand Master.. Where do we start?"

Andros returns the salute.. "We part ways here Count.." After a second, "If you accept this quest.. You .. The Greatest healer in the realm said you would never heal.. NEVER.. You will be to far gone.."

A tortured look crosses the counts face.. His lips move as he seems to be talking to him self.. "We are in Captain.."

"This is totalt BullS#$%," the Templar is quite verbal.. He swallows hard after a gaze from Andros..

"Dad.. He needs treatment and help.. He.."

Andros puts his hand on the Counts Shoulder, "Is the only man who can help me here.. The only man I trust  to do this.. "

"You honor me Grandmaster," The Count spoke with pride.

"First.. You must visit the Chairman.. As the future ruler of the free world, You need his blessing.. You must go to the city of Angels.. Visit the Dragoness in her lair.. Her youngest brother the Samoan, You must convince to go with you." Andros looks the count in the eyes, "You must visit the big Apple and find the Real Life Superhero, Major Mayhem.."

"Dad.." Madam chairman pauses, "Major Mayhem? Oh..."

"You must visit the training area in the white mountains.. Professora Jurrasa must be convinced to forgive her former protege. As you must convince the protege the need for her to rejoin her mistress for more training.. She must join you on your quest of her on free will.."

The skin walker whispered in Navajo to Madam Chairman..

"Be quiet witch.. The grandmaster outranks your boss," The count spoke.. "There will be discipline in the ranks.. "

Madam chairman held up her hand stopping the skinwalker from moving..

Andros looks at the skinwalker, " During this time you will be contacted by a techno crone.. The old B#$%^ should contact you.. Request her aide in the form of her newest apprentice Techno-witch."

Madam Chairman takes a deep breath and shakes her head..

"Grandmaster.. He will get himself killed.." The Templar takes a deep breath, "You cant be serious.."

"The Samoan, The Major Mayhem, Professora's trainie, A techno Maiden," The count takes a deep breath..

"There are special rules.. You may not tell a soul of this conversation.. You may not refer to the Chairman as the Chairman.. Merely as alex.." Andros held up his hand, "His rules for this S#$% not mine..You may only tell them you are on a quest.. No details.."

"Grandmaster.. Are trying to tie my hands," The count shakes his head.. After a few seconds, "I.. If we speak of this, I let the great evil know we are hunting them.. I will convince them.. Somehow.."

Andros takes his sword, "I will only give you this.. Take it with you.. You may only say the sword was given with the blessing of the Grandmaster.. For service as a musketeer."

"Grandmaster," The Templar is wide eyed.. "That is the sword of the Templars.. He is not one of us.. He is mentally unstable.."

Swallowing hard as he took the sword, "I go with the grandmaster's blessings templar.. This quest.. You have me collecting people.."

"In this quest.. Yo may get the chance for vengeance and will face your demons that haunt you count.." Andros walks over to the Templar, "As for you.. You will go with him and act as his squire.. Stand on the bridge.."

"Long after the Ranger has said though shall not pass," The Templar closed his eyes and swallowed hard..

"After the last person has been collected.. The count will rely on your council Templar.. Advise him that he must go to the Mountains of arizona and speak with my artificer.. He must find the Stripper Witch.. Through her he must speak with Cross.." Andros looks at The count again, "Cross is the only person you tell everything to.. Not even Alex.. Rufus, my  Rockefeller, or Helos.. When you leave here you may not even speak further with Madam Chairman.... If you convince Cross your quest is pure and that you are honorable.. The mad artificer will arm your group.. Then you must go find an old gambling boat.. Aboard is the purpose of your quest.. "

"What is my quest?"

"I can not tell you," Andros steps back.. Andros detaches the scabbard for thesword and hands it to the count..

Looking down, "This is bullS#$%.." The templar looks at The count, "I advise you to tell the Grandmaster to go to hell.. He is F#$%ing insane.."

Madam chairman speaks in Navajo to her skinwalker.. 

Not saying anything for a few minutes as the look at the skinwalker.. "Fine.. Count.. May I join you as a SPY for madam chairman.."

The Count attaches the scabbard to his belt, and put the sword into it.. Seeing madman Chairman angry, "I accept.. I expect no less from the chairman's regent.." The count takes the Navajo womans armored hand and kisses it, "I considered it a good sign.. You both do this out of spite.. Before we leave the Artificer.. I hope I can can convince you of the worthiness of our cause.."

Andros turns to leave he stops at the entrance to the building, "Count.. So you know.. I am lying to you and using you.."

Eglin air force base
NCO club parking lot


Loud arguments are taking place between different officers and organizations..

"Captain Beauregard.. He is F#$%ing insane," The now clean shaven templar speaks..

Captain Beauregard, A navy SEAL captain shakes his head, "Who gave him that F#$%ing sword!!"

The military men just stand on guard as the arguments proceed..

"I was instructed not to Mrs. PArker," The female skinwalker responds in Navajo..

"You are trying to tell me that Madam Chairman sent you.. You and your mentor got in a fight.. You were on probation," Joyce Parker is speaking in Navajo.. "And you can not tell me this mission.. I got no report of this.."

"He needs medical treatment," A twelve year old girl speaks.. "Admiral De'Chez..  I have no clue what the F#$% the Captain is up to.."

"Rufus, we are in agreement.." Admiral De'Chez shakes his head.. "They will not speak of what they are doing.."

A man on his knees with his hands cuffed to his feet looks up at the woman in front of him, "F@#$ you Dyke.. How you became the head of the Pinson bloodline Elphelba I do not.."

A short red headed kid appears out of nowhere, "I  think you need to apologize.."

The chained man starts shaking in fear, "I.. Mr. Smithson.. I meant no disrespect sir.. "

All through these arguments Alex is looking the count in the eyes. He walks up with a hispanic woman in tow..

In klingon, "Alex.. Be careful he has multiple personalities.. That is dad's sword.."

"Jessica.. "Alex whispers in klingon, "Keep them off my back.."

The count in a now slightly dirty Musketeer costume, goes to one knee.. "My Liege.. I beseech thee.. I am on a most holy quest.. In defense of the realm..  Innocents are being harmed in your realm.."

Everyone stops and turns as Alex is staring at the Count.. "Let me see your sword," Alex reaches out and everyone tenses.. 

The Count with his head bowed, slowly lays the sword on the ground and pushes it forward as Armed Marines have rifles at the Count's forehead.

Alexander picks up the Templar sword, "I was there Captain Beauregard when Andros made this.. Would not let me hold it.." Alex chuckles as he plays with the sword for a second, "D@#$ it is light.."

"Mr. Macer.." Captain Beauregard starts to move only for Jessica to move to intercept.. As he freezes, "Little Girl.."

Rufus looks at Alex, "Alex.. What do you think you are doing?"

"I was there Madam STaSA when Andros made this sword.. He told me the symbols do not really mean S#$% if you do not believe.. That this sword is an ideal personified.." Alex looks at the Count, "You were told not to tell me what this mission.. Pardon me quest is.."

Helos walks over as everyone is quiet and sniffs the Count.. "Alex.. He is not mentally stable.. I can smell the last bits of his anti psychotics on him.. It is in his breath and sweet.."

"Good.." Rufus walks over, "Alex.. If he continues on this he will never mentally heal.." Seeing Alex as he is looking the count in the eyes, "F#$% me.. ALEX!"

"I see it," Alex smiles when the Count Blinks.. "There you are.. I See.."

Rufus and Helos look at the Count and back to Alex..

Going back to playing with the sword, "I have three questions for you Count.. Before I consider this.."

"Alex," Captain Beauregard freezes when jessica smiles..

"Son," Admiral De'Chez calls out..

"Mr. Macer," Joyce Parker calls out..

Alex and Rufus hand signal Alex who is ignoring everyone..

The Count is looking at Alex and swallows hard, "My.. My liege.. I can explain.. It.."

Rufus stops cold and goes wide eyed at the Count.. "That.. F#$% me.."

"Alex.. " Sandra walks over slowly, "This man is insane.. He put the body of a beheaded man in the trunk of his car and drove here with it.."

"First Question.." Alex speaks as he plays with the sword as Sandra has her hand on his shoulder..

Rufus steps forward looks down. She reassesses the Count, "God D@#$.. I missed it.. Eight hundred and sixty seven years.. You brilliant F#$%ing bastard.. "

A wicked smile comes from The Count as he looks Rufus in the eyes, "Honored Senior Tactical and Strategic Adviser.. Is not all war but merely sets of maneuvers designed to give the warrior a strategic advantage."

"What.. You three little brats can not be serious.. You are just children, "Beauregard still does not move as he glares at Jessica..

Rufus puts her fingers into the steeple form in front of her face.. She paces for a second, "Count Norton.. I assume the Templar told you what the Captain claims.. At the battle of Pendelton.. You were there trying to cheer up the children at the hospital in the same type costume.." Rufus puts her hand on the Counts shoulder, "Why did you not run? When RECON did, from overwhelming odds.. Where even I would have retreated.."

Everyone looks at the Count..

Closing his eyes for a second, "Madam STaSA.. I may have been discharged from my oath.. But I am the one that swore it.. I gave my word, when I signed.. Madam.. One does not simply quit because things are hard."

Rufus walks over to one of the officers.. She reaches up and takes off the mans rank.. 

Before he can argue Mrs. Parker has a blade in his back, "Madam Chairman said no one will interfere.. Rufus she will like to know what the F#$% you are all doing.."

Rufus walks over to the Count shaking her head.. "You mother F#$%ing brilliant Bastard.. Raise your right hand.."

The count Raises his right hand wide eyed..

"Being that you owe time on your original military Contract with the US army.. Under the Authority granted me as the Senior Tactical and Strategic Adviser to the Chairman and the committee at large.. Via the treaty The Committee for a better Future has with SPAWAR, re Phillip De'Chez.. Admiral and commanding officer.. And with The Franklin Trust, which forces Elphelba Pinson to recognize this promotion from Millington, TN on behalf of the DoD.." Rufus takes a deep breath as she smiles, "I grant you the Rank of Lt.. Harry Canton Butterworth.. " 

Rufus proceeds with the ceremony:

HAVING BEEN APPOINTED A LT. IN THE UNITED STATES NAVY, DO YOU Lt. Harry Canton Butterworth  SOLEMNLY SWEAR (OR AFFIRM) THAT YOU WILL SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC;

THAT YOU WILL BEAR TRUE FAITH AND ALLEGIANCE TO THE SAME;

THAT YOU TAKE THIS OBLIGATION FREELY, WITHOUT ANY MENTAL RESERVATION OR PURPOSE OF EVASION;

AND THAT YOU WILL WELL AND FAITHFULLY DISCHARGE THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE ON WHICH YOU ARE ABOUT TO ENTER, SO HELP YOU GOD

"I do," The Count is wide eyed as Rufus pins the railroad tracks on him..

"You have you orders from my Captain Lt." Rufus shakes her head.. "You learn something new every day.."

"Little one.. " Elphelba shakes her head, "You can NOT just.."

Helos growls loudly making every one but Alex and Rufus freeze..

Walking over to the Prisoner, Helos grabs him but the throat and lifts the struggling man.. Choking the man Helos carries him to in front of the count, not letting go as the mans face starts to turn blue. Helos holds the chained prisoners face in front of the count who swallows hard..

The count Calls out to Alex, "My liege.. Surely this man deserves better then this.. Nothng he has done desrves a slow death.. Make it quick of prison.. In your wisdom.. Can .."

"NO," Alex points the sword towards the Prisoner. "This man aided the now Deceased Heinrich Donovan in his continuous rape of Helos mother till he was conceived.. Helos beat the Agent to death with his bare hands for thirty minutes.."

"He.. Donovan," The Count shakes.. "Your the son of one of the Four Donovan brothers.. They.. they.."

A tear falls down the counts face..

Helos drops the prisoner at the feet of the count..

Gasping for air, "Please.. I.. You are an honorable man.. Do not let them kill me like a dog Count.."

"Your Honor Or your Revenge," Helos crosses his arms behind his back..

The Count is shaking as Rufus walks over to the Prisoner, "Tell the count.. The Butterworths and Albert Donovan.."

"I had not choice," The prisoner loses all hope as he sees the anger in the Counts eyes.. "They are Donovans.. Just kill me and be quick about it count.."

De'Chez snorts as Elphelba shakes her head..

The Count closes his eyes and looks down to the right. As tears fall, "My Liege.. Give me his life.. No man should lose all faith before his death.. I choose my honor.. I spoke in defense, I stand by that decision.."

Captain Beauregard swallows hard, "God D@#$.. He.. that is.."

Alex motions the close your mouth symbol.. He one handed signals Helos..

Angry Helos stand the defeated man up.. He breaks the cuffs off of him.. "Disobey a single order The Count give you, "Helos is whispering into the Trust man's ears.. "I will take at the very least two days to break you.. He is your master now.." 

"Keep your mouth shut," The Count growls at the man.. "Your life is mine by the Franklin Trust rules.... We will talk later.. You will tell me everything about the Donovan's you know.. Run and you will wish Helos caught you.."

Helos just disappears in front of everyone, the formerly chained man rubs his wrist sighing relief.

"He is not to happy," Alex chuckles.. "He thought you would kill the man dead. that leaves..."

A hologram appears of a half asleep female, "Alex.. The Secretary said you.."

"Rockefeller," Alex grins evilly.. "Cont Norton.. I present Madam Vice Chairman. Have you been listening?"

"No I was F#$%ing asleep.." The hologram brings up a recording.. Wearing a nightie, The Vice chairman reviews the log.. She shakes her but pauses and look at the Cont several time.. After a few minutes of silence..

"My lady," The Count pauses, "My Liege.."

"Alex.. I see it.." Rockefeller stands a little straighter, "I must act the Queen here. Count.. They are planning on sending you to potentially your death.. I know what we are facing.. To send you, in this condition is stupid.."

"My lady.. Liege.. What is life," The Count responds?

The Vice Chairman looks at the cont and then to Alex, "Go on.."

"It is mine to live.. Am I not free.. To live, to love, and to laugh as a freeman.. In that process, do I not have the divine inspiration to pursue my happiness to the ends of the earth as I see fit? just as you do.."

Closing her eyes, "You must tell me one thing and you have my blessing.." Taking a deep breath the hologram whispers into the Counts ear..

"With out breaking my oath my dear.. I can see the affection in your tone.. Consider this.. He would not ever have been able to draw such emotion from you if he was not the man your tone indicates you are pissed at.." The count bows, "My liege he is the man you care for.. Trust in that.."

A male voice comes from behind the Vice Chairman, "Darlin is that more d@#$ business.. "

"Go with my blessing noble count," Rockefeller disconnects the feed from her end.

The count puts his hand over his heart, "My lady.."

"The sword is proof of Andros's blessing," Captain Beauregard's eyes are wide as it dawned on him.. "Alex.. May I speak with.."

"No," Alex walks over directly infront of the Count.. Pointing the Grandmaster of the Templar's sword at the Lt, "Now it is my turn.." Alex rubs his chin, "What is the answer to the question I have.."

Everyone is confused as the count starts thinking.. He moves his lips like he is having a conversation in his head.. "I.. Their.." The Count stops, "D@#$ it.. there is no answer.." Frustrated.. 

Alex raises his eyebrows looking at the count..

"I have failed, "The Count cusses and shakes his head.. "It is a S#$% test with no answer.. I was set up.. I .. "

The count turns to leave and shakes his head moving his lips..

Alex grins evilly as his father shakes his head..

"Alex," Sandra whispers.. "That was cruel.."

"Sandra.." Brushes her aside, "Count Norton.. Halt.. " Alex brings the sword up in salute as the Count turns around and is very surprised.. "Knell Count Joshua Abraham Norton the Forth.."

"I failed.. Oh.." The Count removes his hat as he kneels..

"As the son of Phillip De'Chez.. Technicaly I am heir to a kingdom.. As we speak, Madam Chairman rules the CFaBF as my Regent.. By ancient Captain Beauregard that makes me a Prince in all but title.. My Secretary selected you as worthy and sent you here.. The Vice Chairman.. Is the vice Chairman.." Alex smiles as he places the sword on the Counts right shoulder, "You have convinced Rufus of your worthiness as a soldier to the point she swore you back into the military.." Moving the sword gracefully to the Counts other shoulder, "You convinced my Sargent at Arms that your honor was above reproach.." 

The four templars present swallow hard and put their hands over thier hearts..

"As for my test.. You had to accept failing to get my blessing, to get my blessing.." Alex brings the Grandmaster's sword up to salute, "Rise.. Sir Norton.. Lt. in the US Navy.. Count by title.. Emperor of Calexia by proclamation.. Knight of the Committee for a Better Future.. Arise My fellow musketeer.."

Alex handed the Grandmasters's sword back to the Count..

The count took the sword wide eyed..

"As is classic in all stories and legends.. Dine with us in the morn.. " Alex smiled as he put his hand on the Musketeer's shoulder.. He whispers, "You are a brilliant bastard Harry.. F#$%ing brilliant.."

"Sue," Count norton looked at the trust member.. "I am not putting locks on your door.. I am not putting you in hand cuffs.."

The angry trust member growled, "Sue.."

"Yes.. It is your new name.. A new fate.." Sue went to move and had the Grandmaster of the Templar's sword at his throat, "Let me be clear.. You are a freeman.. You may leave.. What ever you want to do... The first step is freedom.." Sheathing the sword, "Sir Dagonet of the Templars.. Lady Boudica of the Extended Navajo.. Same goes for you.." Dragging his foot in the sand as the three people were stood there.. "There will be no I was forced.. There will be no, Well I have to go.."

Admiral De'Chez and several others are watching..

"You cross this line.. There is no turning back.. This is your Rubicon.." Count Norton's words seem to have the full attention of the Templars, "Dagonet.. F#$% the Templars.. You are here either because you hold the creed in your heart as you SOP or you leave now with no shame.. Lady Boudica.." Several of the skinwalkers turn to listen, "You are here to do what history says the Skinwalkers were formed to fight.. The Oppression of your people by a superior force.. Well you are NATIVE AMERICAN.. So either have the F#$%ING courage of your navajo ancestors F#$%ING convictions or bounce.."

Alex stands watching with no tells showing..

"Helos will kill me If I leave," Sue sniffs the air..

"You die a freeman then.. Sue.. No one has every given you the chance to live free.. I am," Count Norton seemed to move energetically.. "Yes Helos is waiting.. But in those two days.. You taste freedom.."

"So.. I can walk out of here.. Die.. Stay with you on this stupid F#$%ing Quest," Sue shook his head.. "And die later.. Odds are better.. I am.."

The sword is back at Sue's throat, "No.. You do not understand.. Cross the line.. You agree to the terms.. I offer you not only freedom but the hard road.. People will despise you.. They will hate you and think your.." Count Norton turns and changes stances, "Count darling.. He is trust.. Let me handle this.." Turning very femininly, "Sue darling.. " A more female voice fills the air, "Auntie Alyssia here.. The count here is an idiot.. I want you here so you can break things and kill them.. I have a feeling the Count is stupid, and heroes get people killed. He intend sto hunt down Albert.. Between the Private, Little butters, and the idiotic count.." Turning his head as he changes stances, "Alyssia.. He is not yet a man of .."

"You insane F#$%er.." Sue looks at Norton for half a second and shakes his head as the sword is lowered,"Tell Alyssia .. I am told to kill or break something.. I get to keep going.. No stopping.." Sue pulls out a knife and salutes with it, "To fresh air and sunshine.." Sue steps forward across the line, "Of my own free will.."

Sir Dagonet the templar shakes his head.. He looks at Count Norton, "Why would the Grandmaster.. Give.." Sir Dagonet looks at Count Norton saluting with the sword, "Why did the Grandmaster give you the sword? He is fourteen..What could he know that would.."

"He is from the future loyal templar," Count Norton looks at Dagonet just as intensly.. "He is insane and thinks he is from the future.. We need to hurry.. " Count Norton turns his head slightly, "I have to go visit Nana Sinclaire first.. I promised her I would visit.."

Captain Beaurgard laughed from a little ways away, "You are trying to tell my.. And I mean my templars that Rebecca Sinclaire is you Nana.. That  Gregory Sinclair was your papa.."


"Papa and Nana.. I have to check on Nana before I go on my quest," Count Norton smiles politely as he turned and looked at the men staring.. "What .. Papa Sinclaire taught me to sword fight when I was six.. Nana taught me, well other things.."

Dagonet went to one knee, "My god this is not just any quest.. Grandmaster Colt of the mother Lodges has sent you on.. F#$% me.. The sword.."

"He is mentally unstable," the SEAL captain Growled.. 

He started to move only for two black blades to be at his throat..

"It is a very ancient tradition, if the Previous grandmaster of the Templars is unable to perform his duties.." Sir Dagonet bows his head to Count Norton, "Someone else may be sent on a quest.."

"Of the most holy of natures.." Several of the templars go to one knee themselves..

"Please he has to be knighted," Beauregard growls.. "Your name is NOT Sir Dagonet!"

Lady Boudica speaks, "Alex is a prince, an Heir to the kingdom of SPAWAR.. And Chairman of the Committee for a better future, with madam Chairman ruling in his stead.. She is one of mine Beauregard.. A member of the expanded Navajo tribes.. Which makes it three kingdoms.. Count Norton is a knight of a modern realm.. A musketeer officially." She crosses the line, "I want the full story later Butters.. This should be fun Don Quixote.."

Dagonet rises and crosses the line, "Tis I your loyal squire, Lodge brother.. Sir Dagonet of the templars.. I have much to teach you for this quest.."


"I have much to learn," Count norton puts his hand on Dagonet's shoulder.. A female like voice comes from him in an old language, "My sword is your sword lodge brother.."

Every Templar draws their sword and responds in the same old language, "And our sword is yours lodge brother.."

Captain Beauregard was pissed, "I will go with you to Mrs. Sinclaire's house.. I do not believe you.."

Holding the side of her old fashioned pillar to her house, tears fell down wrinkles.. Looking at the sword, "But.. Butters baby.."

Reaching out in his Musketeer costume, "Nana Sinclaire.. It is ok.."

Taking the sword scabbard Nana Sinclaire steps backdrawing the sword, "My.. My god.. It is.." She almost drops the sword as she tries to catch her emotions, "Did.. Did this fourteen year old say.." 

Nana Sinclaire slowly repeats the words.. 

After a few seconds, "Not exactly he whispered it this way.."

Count Norton speaks off tone in the old language..

Rebecca Sinclaire almost drops the sword.. 

"This is BullS#$%," Captain Beauregard growls.. "Andros can not declare the post of Grandmaster of The Templars vacant.."

With reverance, "Mrs. Sinclaire.." Sir Dagonet steps forward, "You are Rebecca Sinclaire.. Wife of the deceased previous Grandmaster Templar. Do you speak for Henry Butterworth.."

In an ancient language Rebecca Sinclaire speaks as she stands straight.. For the next two minutes she recites old procedure.. As she speaks slowly over fifty men in her front yard go to one knee..

"Nana," Count Norton is confused..

"Sir Sue," Rebecca wipes a tear.. "Be a dear and in my room under the base boards.. Their is a trunk.. We need your trust strength.. Bring me the trunk.."

"Papa's trunk," Count Norton raises an eyebrow..

Sue obediantly goes inside..

"I am giving you all your papa's gear little Butters.." As the tear flew she utters an ancient blessing..

"You," The sEAL is interrupted by a limo pulling up.. Seeing someone let out, "Thank god Judge Riley.. The GRANDMASTER of the Mother Lodge of the FREEMASON's is here.."

Lady Boudica steps forward and hands a phone to Count Norton.. "The Grandmaster of the Mother Lodges of Terra has a message for you.."

Captain Beauregard looks over as music comes from the phone..

Guitar strings fill the air as Matt Kennon's voice comes from the phone..

"You better drive it like you stole it.. Hit the hole like its forth and goal.. You better take it like you want it.." The words are sung in the ancient language, "Hit the stage and then steal the show.. Cuz its your moment.. You better get on it.. And DRIIIVE..."

The kneeling Templars laugh to each other as they stand.. In chorus raising swords, "Like you stole it!"

Judge Riley pauses as The Templars and Rebecca Sinclaire are singing along in the ancient Language..

"Cut that S@#$ out," Judge Riley is pissed of as a woman dressed in semi classical Skin Walker gear steps out of the limo.. "Professor Jurrasa let my Grand Daughter go.."

Another set of females all exit other vehicals..

Professor Jurassa starts singing along in Navajo with the other Females..

The little girl gets excited when she sees the Count, "Daddy.." She is let down and she runs past stunned Templars who start whispering as the skin walkers are singing in NAvajo, "Daddy.."

"His daughter is your," Captain Beauregard goes silent.. "S#$%.. He has a better.. F#$% me.."

"Honored wife of the former Grandmaster Templar.. We of the Yee Naaldloshii honor you.." Professor Jurassa and the other Skin walkers bow their heads, "Madam Chairman wants to know if you need anything.. Let us know.."

Count Norton holds his daughter with tears in his own eyes, "Juliet.. I missed you.."

Sir Dagonet speaks into the phone, "Grandmaster.. "

"Sir Dagonet.." Andros stops the singing, "Squire of Count Norton.. Yes.."

"He is not the Grandmaster.. And you are all MY templars.. Their is a restraining order preventing you," Judge Riley has more swords pointing at him then he can process..

"It is an internal matter," Judge Riley's voice comes from the phone.. "Captain Beauregard while a man of honor has left the post in abatement.. Sir Sue.."

Sue pauses as he sets the trunk on the Ground, "Mam.." Seeing the scene, He laughs..

Rebecca Sinclaire opens the chest and reveals the contents.. Solemnly she takes out a black dagger, "Butters baby.. Your mother and father were of the star families.. By right this is your fathers blade.." Taking out a second sword with similar markings to the one he had, "This is your papa's sword.."

"Daddy.. You are a mason too," Juliet looks proud.. "Wait.. Templar.. That means I am pure Mason.."

"That is right my little grandmaster of the mother Lodge of the Scottish rite freemasons," Andros speaks in older voice.. "Templars.. You must protect her.. She takes her grand Father's position for me.. You see Judge Riley.. I am the Grandmaster of the mother lodges of Terra.. "

"She will lead the eastern stars," Judge Riley growls.. "You over step your bounds kid.."

"Juliet.. Grandmaster of my Free masons.." Andros speaks in an ancient language, "Your Daddy's Templars if finishes his quest, will protect you.."

Juliet Giggles, "You are Mister colt.. Wait.. I take Grand Daddy's spot.. You.. You unify the Freemasons under one banner.."

"With my little loyal Grand master.. Visit with your Nana for know.." Andros speaks, "Count Norton.. This quest is to determine if you are worthy to lead the templars.. As my Grandmaster.."
