The Bigger Guy rose to his feet and folded his arms. He turned and spat blood, growling ferociously. "No," he said defiantly. "There's no way in hell I'm looking for that tablet. The chances are a billion to one that I'll help you, the answer is no. It'll never happen."

"Oh come on," Ebo groaned, "You blocking."

The bigger Guy tilted his head, "I'm what now?"

"Blocking. Stopping the movement of the story from moving forward. You have to accept and build."

"Accept and...huh?"

"Accept and build. Haven't you ever played theater improv games?"

"Im..what?"

"Improv. Like the guys on who's line is it anyway."

"Oh hey, i love that show!"

"Well then watch it. Notice they never say no."

"They don't?"

"No. Now. I'm going to say it again, 'What do you say we forget the fight and keep on with the tablet thing?'"

The Bigger Guy stared thoughtfully at Ebo. Then, he burst into a song, his voice a beautiful high falsetto:

I am bigger than you and science,
I come from a family of giants,
The tablet will steal my breath,
The tablet will bring me death,
I will die by the fountain,
if I save your mountain....


The song continued as the Bigger Guy sang the same verse over and over and over..... until everyone fell asleep and the Bigger Guy laughed gleefully and pranced around.

Then he stopped and strted talking. "Hey! I made them fall asleep!"

A voice from the mountian answered: "Twit! These are the wrong people!"

"What do you mean? There's The Choosen One, The Jar-o-Heads, the whacked up one, Big Guy...What do you mean I messed up?"

"Er, um, good question. Let's see here." the sonds of pages being flipped echoed. "Wait, what year is it?"

"Um, 2004?"

"Okay. They were the right people, but at the wrong time. Come back and do that again in 40 years. Good-bye."

"Wait? 40 years? In new technology years, that'll take forever!"

He grumbled his way over the sleeping people.

The Bigger Guy looked at all the crazy people sleeping on the ground. Jar heads and robots and hippies, what had the world come to?

The Bigger Guy shed a tear and sniffed sadly. Then he ran away as fast as he could and didn't look back.

Slowly the group woke up. Teela looked around, "Hey, what happened to the Bigger Guy?"

"Is he gone?" Tash asked.

"If you can't see him, then its fairly safe to assume he's gone," TJ said.

"You're a sarcastic one, little head thing," Teela grumbled.

"Hey! So if the Bigger Guy won, that means he gave up, which means we win, right?"

There was a few minutes of murmuring, then a few nods, "Yeah, yeah I think it does."

"I know how we can celebrate!" Ebo cheered, "Golf!"

The Big Guy groaned, "Do we have to?"

"You don't have to. You can caddy. And drive the cart. And hit gophers if you find any."

But suddenly, a high pitched voice could be heard.

"What's that terrible sound?" asked Teela.

"Look! It's the Bigger Guy! He's returned!" exclaimed Ebo, and she pointed into the foothills. Her robot eyes allowed her see farther than the others.

The Bigger Guy was a speck in the distance. He crouched behind a large boulder high in the hills, far above the group.

He sang out shrilly, "Heellooo! I can see you! I see what your doing! I can see you!"

Then the Bigger Guy turned and ran away, disappearing from view. Again.

"Is he taunting us?" Teela said angrily, "I think he's taunting us."

Suddenly there was a crash and a small brown car came flying through the large windows. There was a little fish sign on the back and as well as a bumper stick that said "My boss is a jewish carpenter." There was a terrified looking girl (who coincidently hated being called a boy) stitting in the passanger seat and grabbing the dash board and screaming "You hit something else! This is the third thing you hit today!"

"Noooo," the guy sitting in the driver said, "I almost hit the center divider."

"What about the truck?"

"The truck hit me."

"Whatever! Just try to get me to the movies in one peice. I wanna see shrek 2!"

The driver poked his head out the window, "Sorry!" he shouted then as an afterthought added, "Vote Bush 2004!"

He backed out of the baggage claim area and pulled away, narrowly avoiding hitting an old lady.

"Its a good thing you don't drink!" the girl shouted, "You're a danger to socity while sober!" there was a squeeling of breaks and then, "You just ran over a "do not enter" sign for Christ sake!"

The Hippie finally emerged with the two Hippie Girls around each arm. Apparantly the three had become fast friends.

"Say..." drawled the Hippie. "I've been listening to you talk but I don't understand a single thing you just said."

"Wow," one of the rival heads in a jar said, "This story is just whipping along. Top marks for that. We're going to go, um, watch that grass grow over there."

"Ha! Ha!" Ebo shouted, "We've defeated them!"

The others looked unenthusiasticly at her.

Ebo sat down on a suitcase, "Ok, I'm bored."

The Hippie grinned, "I've been having lots of fun."

Ebo threw her shoe at him.

"What?" he asked, "Don't you like fun?"

Ebo threw her other shoe at him.

Suddenly a biycicle messenger arrived with a large package for Ebo. Ebo gave it too one of the Hippie girls saying, "Here, you open it."

"Why us?" the Hippie Girl asked suspiciously.

"I got anthrax last time. I'd like to share the love."

"ohhhh. Thata so sweet," The Hippie Girl opened the package to find a small laptop compuiter. It was very shinny. Ebo quicky reclaimed it and turned it on.

After powering up to "the Penis song" by Monty Python a large message flashed across the screen:

WARNING! PROPERTY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!! HIGHLY CLASIFIED INFORMATION!! MUST HAVE PASSWORD TO CONTINUE!!!

"Damn," Ebo said, "I don't have any password."

"Try 'Password'," Tash suggested.

Ebo typed it in and the she was imedeatly allowed access into the computer.

"Whats it say?" Teela asked.

Ebo squinted at the screen, "Um.. which members of congress are aleins...Dick Cheney has been dead for the passt 2 months....Bush is a trained monkey, and he smells like one too...Oh wow. Take a look at this. Thats interesting."

"Read it out loud," Tash begged.

"Can't. Its somebody elses turn to think up a new plot line for us."
