“Where have you been, friend?” Simon asked, tucking a wooden stick into his belt. Lewis looked up to see Simon standing in front of him, right in the entrance to Honeydew Inc.

“Just around. I found some cocoa beans, by the way.” Lewis dug through his pockets and pulled out a small bag. Simon’s face lit up when Lewis tipped the contents of the bag into his hand, 3 cocoa beans falling out.

“Fantastic! I’ll go tell Duncan.” Simon said, turning around and stepping away from Lewis.

“Uh, Duncan’s visiting Hannah…” Lewis said, grabbing Simon by the shoulder.

“Oh, okay.” Simon turned back around, and took the bag off Lewis. “Well I need t-” Both Minecraftians looked up as a blonde hooded figure flew overhead. “Was that Hannah?”

“I think so… In a grey hoodie…” Behind them, Duncan touched down. He waited for a minute before speaking, laughing inside at the confusion on their faces. After he’d had enough, he coughed to get their attention.

“Hello boys.”

“Whoa!” Lewis and Simon jumped and spun around, facing Duncan.

“We got coc-” Simon started.

“Where’s Hannah go-” Lewis also started at the same time. Duncan laughed at the two guys in front of him, and he walked towards the two, putting his arms over each one and turning them round, making them walk with him towards the Jaffa Café.

“Rythian!” Zoey ran down the white halls of Yoglabs, skidding round the corners. “Rythian!” Zoey almost ran into his door, opening it and falling through into his office.

“Zoey?!” Rythian shot up and dropped some red matter onto the floor, grabbing Zoey before she hit the floor. He helped her over to the chair, sitting her down, then sitting down himself. “Not that I don’t want you here, but what are you doing here?”

“I did it, Rythian. I finished what I was working on!” Zoey said, smiling a huge toothy smile. Rythian smiled back, all while trying to remember what she was working on.

“The owl DNA?” Rythian asked, raising an eyebrow.

“No, I gave that to Hannah. I finished MushNet.”

“Yes, that’s brilliant. So we can keep tabs on everyone in Tekkitopia now?” Rythian asked, the smile on his face bigger.

“Not just Tekkitopia. Voltzville, Yogcraftia, Steam City, even further on even. I’m still trying to expand it to Minecraftia. Hopefully that should be done within a year.” Zoey jumped up, excited.

“Talking of Steam City, aren’t you meant to be at Faversholm by now?” Rythian asked. He didn’t exactly like the idea of Zoey out in Faversholm, but he trusted Liam, and they carried guns anyway. Zoey glances down at her watch, eyes wide.

“Oh, boobs, yeah. Bye Rythian!” Zoey ran out of the door, red cloak flowing behind her. “Liam!!!!” Rythian sighed as he watched the girl running away from him, down the corridor. He turned back to his office, closing the door behind him, his red matter forgotten. If only he could figure out the password to Zoey’s MushNet. Then he wouldn’t have to worry about Duncan or Sjin anymore, he could keep constant tabs on everyone, especially those two. If only it expanded to Minecraftia. He guessed if he knew the password, then maybe he could work on it, add a little magic to that science. He pulled out a pad and pen, and started scribbling could-be passwords. ‘Boobs, mushrooms, Teep, Rythian, magic, science, boobs…’

“Hey, Paul, you big dumb-dumb! Guess what!” Chris yelled across the room, sitting on top of a new rocket. Paul looked up from tending to the space pigs, his beard slightly moving in the breeze. He raised one bushy eyebrow.

“What it is?”

“I’m the greatest gumshoe in the land!” Chris yelled back, laughing. Paul laughed back, smiling. “Hey Paul, how’s Rashers?”

“He’s doing good, Chris. He’s ready for flying, actually.” Paul stepped out of the gateway and closed the gate. Chris hopped down from the rocket and walked over to Paul, bucket in hand. “What you got there?”

“Rocket fuel. Wanna go refill the coffee machine?” Chris asked, holding up the bucket and smirking.

“You know I can’t say no to that face.” Paul grabbed his gloves and put them on, grabbing the bucket from Chris.

“Hey, you know what else you’ll be able to do?” Chris asked, smirking at Paul.

“What’s that?”

“See that receptionist you fancy, Anya.” Chris laughed, patting Paul’s shoulder. Under his beard, Paul’s cheeks turned a bright shade of red, and he looked down at the floor, slightly embarrassed. “Hey, cheer up, we’ll go talk to Quackers McGee later.”

“Okay…” Paul hurried out of the door, carrying the bucket of rocket fuel, Chris following behind him.

“Liam!” Zoey yelled, chasing the pool boy. Liam heard her shout his name from behind him and turned around.

“There ya are, I’ve been looking for ya. I’ve got the uniforms. We don’t want to be late for our first day. I got a message from Duncan that Hannah went to go get stuff from Faversholm recently, and he asked us to keep an eye on her, so we have to hurry up.” Liam explained, practically throwing the uniform into Zoey’s arms. “Look how cute my butt looks in this.” Liam joked, trying to check himself out.

“You excited for our first day?” Zoey asked, walking down the corridor with Liam, headed towards the women’s toilets, to get changed in.

“Course I am. I hope it all goes really smoothly today.” Liam said, laughing.

“You let her go to Faversholm, alone?!” Lewis yelled at Duncan. Both the dwarf and scientist looked up at the spaceman, wondering why he was so upset about the owl lover.

“Yes, I let her go. Liam and Zoey will be there, and she’s a big girl, she can look after herself. She took a switchblade and her phone, and I told her, back by nightfall.” Duncan said, standing up to be face to face with Lewis. “Why do you care so much?”

“…I care for all, that’s all.” Lewis said, scratching the back of his head.

“You need to leave the caring to me, space man.” Duncan said, pushing his index finger into Lewis shoulder bone and walking away, off back to his level of the Honeydew Inc building.
I needed to get this chapter done before the next chapter of The Return, or it wouldn't make any sense. I've put up the dates each story will be set in. Enjoy!
