As a fourth Arcevar Noveren was approaching the group consisting of Zonar, Tobaz, Cor, Hor and the ones called Jackie O’Neill and Edna Cruz, Zonar turned to Tobaz and said “We must greet this approaching Arcevar Noveren with our hand gestures on the other arm.”
“I shall go first Lord Zonar” suggested Tobaz
“No I shall go first Tobaz, I do not fear nothing.” said Zonar
Zonar and Tobaz left the group, for her part the one called Jackie O’Neill also followed but stopped half way when the fourth Arcevar Noveren got really close to Zonar.
Zonar noticed that this fourth Arcevar Noveren was slightly bigger than the ones called Edna Cruz and Jackie O’Neill but smaller than the first three Arcevar Noveren, what was also strange was the shape of its head. Zonar then raised his other arm with the his middle digit extended and the other four digits down on his hand, showed this to the fourth Arcevar Noveren and said “You there, bow down before your new master Lord Zonar!”
The fourth Arcevar Noveren reaction to Zonar was a quick and powerful touch for its arm to Zonar’s head and Zonar fell down on his back, with fourth Arcevar Noveren saying “Now that was not very friendly mate.” and moved toward Tobaz.
Tobaz then raised his other arm folded down his middle three digits on his hand and extended the first and fifth digits and showed this to the fourth Arcevar Noveren. This fourth Arcevar Noveren did not return the hand gesture or touched Tobaz, this fourth Arcevar Noveren reaction was to lift up part of its head and said to Tobaz “Good day mate.” and walked to toward to the one called Jackie O’Neill. The one called Jackie O’Neill did not do anything but the fourth Arcevar Noveren lifted part of its head again and said “Hello there missy, are you with this chaps?”
“Yes I am.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“Sorry about your boy friend over there.” said the fourth Arcevar Noveren while pointing towards Zonar who was getting up from the ground “But he was damn rude to me.”
“That is okay, he is always like that.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“Well if you ever decide to dump the bastard, give me a ring.” said the fourth Arcevar Noveren while giving the one called Jackie O’Neill a very small object. The fourth Arcevar Noveren then raised a parts of its head and said “Good day missy” and left.
Tobaz went to the one called Jackie O’Neill and said “What happen, why did not the hand gestures work on this one?”
“Oh he is from the south side of the planet.” replied the one called Jackie O’Neill
“Really?” asked Tobaz
“Yes” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
Zonar moved towards Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill and asked “What happen?”
Tobaz said “Jackie O’Neill said that this last Arcevar Noveren is from the south side of Arcevar Noveren.”
“Is this true?” asked Zonar
“Yes” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“What is it doing here then?” asked Zonar
“I did not asked that one as to why he was here.” replied the one called Jackie O’Neil.
“So Lord Zonar we should have used our original hand gestures on that one.” said Tobaz
“Yes you should have” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“All right when the next one comes we use the original arms” said Zonar
“Yes my Lord Zonar.” said Tobaz and as he said that a fifth Arcevar Noveren approached Zonar, the one called Jackie O’Neill and him. Zonar went to greet this fifth Arcevar Noveren, this time using the original arm and showing the middle digit extended and the other digits folded down on his hand to this fifth Arcevar Noveren and said to it “Bow down before your master Lord Zonar.”
The fifth Arcevar Noveren reaction to this gesture was not a touch to his head but rather it used a rod that it was carrying. This rod was longer the blaster rods that the ground troopers used and this fifth Arcevar Noveren was striking Zonar at many places on his body while saying “Take that you hussy, how rude of you, they didn’t teach you any manners where you come from?”
On his part while the blows to his body was not enough to send Zonar to the ground he could not do much to ward of this fifth Arcevar Noveren that was hitting his body, Zonar then yelled “Cor!”
Cor then came over to help to stop this fifth Arcevar Noveren from hitting Zonar. Cor then raised his blaster rod. The fifth Arcevar Noveren saw this, stop hitting Zonar and turned its attention to Cor. Since the fifth Arcevar Noveren rod was longer than the Cor’s blaster rod, it managed to hit Cor first on the head. Cor stopped moving forward, another blow from the fifth Arcevar Noveren stuck Cor’s hand and he dropped his blaster rod on the ground. The fifth Arcevar Noveren hit Cor two more times and Cor dropped to the ground, while the fifth Arcevar Noveren said “And to think this was a safe neighborhood! Ruffians!”
Zonar noticed that Cor was down on the ground, he then attempted to go to the fifth Arcevar Noveren. The fifth Arcevar Noveren noticed Zonar was coming towards it and threw its rod very hard at Zonar. The force of the impact was enough to send Zonar on the ground.
The fifth Arcevar Noveren looked around on the ground, picked up Cor’s blaster rod and left towards Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill. Tobaz did not want to try any variation of the obscene hand gesture for fear of angering this fifth Arcevar Noveren. When the fifth Arcevar Noveren reached Tobaz, it had simply ignored Tobaz and went straight to the one called Jackie O’Neill and said “Young lady, I can not understand why choose to associated with such youth gangs that cause trouble to everyday citizens. A lady is not safe anymore with such ruffians roaming the streets.”
The one called Jackie O’Neill did not say anything to the fifth Arcevar Noveren, the fifth Arcevar Noveren raised its shoulders and left Tobaz and Jackie O’Neill alone.
“What happen?’ asked Tobaz
“I think that one was from the north side of Arcevar Nover.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“Really how can you tell?” said Tobaz
“I can tell.” replied the one called Jackie O’Neill
“But how can we tell?” asked Tobaz
“Well you could ask them before you show your hand gestures.” replied the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“Excellent suggestion Jackie O’Neill, I shall relay this to Lord Zonar.” said Tobaz.
Tobaz moved to Zonar who was getting up from the ground, as well as Cor. Cor was looking for his blaster rod, he could not find it. Zonar said “Cor, here take this Arcevar Noveren’s blaster rod, at last we have access to their weapons.”
“Thank you Lord Zonar.” said Cor “I will use this weapon whenever you command me to do so.”
Cor then moved to Hor and the one called Edna Cruz.
“My Lord Zonar” said Tobaz “the one called Jackie O’Neill suggest we ask the next Arcevar Noveren we encounter that if they are from the north side or the south side of Arcevar Nover before we show them our hand gestures.”
They didn’t need to wait long enough as a sixth Arcevar Noveren came by to approach the group of Zonar, Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“You there!” said Zonar to the sixth Arcevar Noveren “are you from the North side or the South side of Arcevar Noveren?”
The sixth Arcevar Noveren replied, “I’m from East LA.”
Zonar looked at Tobaz, who then looked at the one called Jackie O’Neill. The one called Jackie O’Neill said “East, let’s see I think maybe you should try both arms, but I am not sure about that.”
“Try both arms Lord Zonar.” said Tobaz
Zonar then raised both arms, each hand on his arm had the middle digit extended while the rest of the digits had them down on his hand. He showed this to the sixth Arcevar Noveren.
The one called Jackie O’Neill told to Tobaz, “I trying to remember if you use both arms on someone from the West instead of the East.”
The reaction from the sixth Arcevar Noveren to the two hand gestures from Zonar was a loud “Why you dirty bastard” and a very powerful touch to Zonar’s head such that he went to the ground on his back.
“Ahh, you use both arms when you encounter someone from the West.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
The sixth Arcevar Noveren left Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill while saying “Is this anyway to treat visitors to this islands! I will write a strongly worded letter to the mayor, the governor, the president, the newspapers and the web on how badly I was treated by that” the sixth Arcevar Noveren pointed to Zonar who was still on the ground “while on my hard earned vacation to this city. You bastard.” The sixth Arcevar Noveren then left.
Zonar got up from the ground and looked at Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill and said “Why did you give me the wrong information.”
“Hey I wasn’t sure about it.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill “Besides I am a shuttle pilot not a communications officer.”
“Your performance is dismal” said a somewhat dazed Zonar “If you was a member of my followers you would have been dead by now.”
“Well I am not part of your followers so there.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“How dare you say that to me, your master Lord Zonar.” said Zonar
“Really, has any of the people of this world has bowed down to you yet?” asked the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“They will soon!” said Zonar “When Taskeven completes his task in filling in that form and then I will be the master of this world, and I promise you, you will be the first to feel my wrath.”
“I’m quaking in my boots.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“You fear me.” said Zonar
“I do not.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“Yes you do.” said Zonar
“I do not fear you.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill.
“How dare you talk to me like that.” said Zonar
“I will talk to you any damn well I please.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
“You will learn your proper place when I am in charge of this world.” said Zonar
“Zonar” said the one called Jackie O’Neill “you are so pathetic even the old ladies with one arm tied behind their back can beat you up.”
“Really! Then find me one I fear no one!” said Zonar
“Well here comes one now.” said the one called Jackie O’Neill
Zonar turned around and sees a seventh Arcevar Noveren moving towards them. This one was smaller that the previous six and was moving slower than the six and carrying something that required the use of both of its hands.
Zonar said to the seventh Arcevar Noveren “You there. Are you from the south or from the north?”
The seventh Arcevar Noveren responded by saying “I am from the south, Gainesville Florida actually, I am here visiting with my son who is testing out an organ in that church across the street.”
Zonar then raised his arm that was meant for the people from the south, extended his middle digit, while holding down the other digits on his hand, showed it to the seventh Arcevar Noveren and said “Bow down before me, your new master Lord Zonar.”
The seventh Arcevar Noveren bowed down before Zonar. Zonar saw this, turned around to Tobaz and to the one called Jackie O’Neill and boasted “See this one knows the proper place of my rule on th...”
What Zonar failed to see was that the reason why the seventh Arcevar Noveren bowed was to place on the ground the object it was carrying in both hands. It looked inside the object and it brought out another object that was circular on one end and with a small rod sticking out. The seventh Arcevar Noveren took that object by the rod and used it to touch the circular end very hard on the back Zonar’s head while he was talking to Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill. The force of the touch was enough to send Zonar to the ground with him hitting his face on the ground, not finishing his sentence to Tobaz and the one called Jackie O’Neill. The seventh Arcevar Noveren then said “How rude of you, don’t they teach you any manners?”
Zonar did not respond, his face was on the ground.
