//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: Do you see the story? the story of overuse? // Story: TCB: It's Zero Turn // by BronyofMeddlers //------------------------------// Chapter 1: Do you see the story? the story of overuse? There was a single being in the center of the room, he was hanging in mid air, his body wore a white straight jacket as he chew on some meat, and he was eighteen of age. His head was covered by a baseball cap, it was a simple blue and white color, his eyes were covered by the shade of his hat, his hair were of the color black as his sideburns went down to his chin. His tan skin nose rubbed by his fingerless gloves of red as he takes a gulp of the meat, everything was white in the room as he was hanging by chains on his back and ankles. He however heard voices coming to his 'room'. "Are we seriously going to inform this guy? You do know who this sicko is, do you?" said a voice, another voice answered. "He has to know, otherwise he's going to call me and get pissy at me not telling him, and trust me, I don't want to deal with that when it's three in the morning." told the other, he heard the tones as the first was some newbie male, the other was a old friend of his. The door opened as a woman of Asian descent entered in, she was four feet, smaller than most woman, wearing a detective outfit with a fedora on her head, which is brown like everything else. Her eyes were brown, as were her hair, not to mention her melons were large! She glared at the eighteen year old as he finished his meal. "So Tomo! What brings you to my vacation room? Is it our anniversary of rivals?" asked the hanging man. She sighed as she spoke. "Hey Zero, look there something that came up. Something big." "Oh what could be bigger than me annoying you?" asked Zero. "The fact there's a new species over by the ocean, with a barrier in case someone stupid tried to enter in, and they use magic." told Tomo, she knew he was looking straight at her, despite not seeing his eyes, she knew he was looking at her. He soon breaths in and out as he spoke in a monotone voice. "Please let me down, get me out of this room, and out of this cell. I need to see a few things." said Zero. She nodded her head as she unlocked his locks, he soon began to walk in a serious manner, and while grabbing his stuff the guard spoke to Tomo in a panic tone. "Are you insane? Why would you let him out? He's dangerous with a capital D! There's a reason he's in that room in the first place!" Tomo sighed. "Look he may be derange, odd, and silly," "CRAZY TOMO!" shouted Zero from another room, Tomo rolled her eyes. "Crazy," corrected Tomo as she went on. "But the fact remains that it's better to have Zero to know, than for him to come to you with a bake dessert and with a large smile on his face." she told him, while he remained confused as Zero came out with a jacket of blue, jeans, running shoes, and a metal cane with a diamond on the top. He walked up to her with a grin on his face. "Thank you Tomo, now I will be off in a catapult. I'm needed back in New York, see you in later in chapter 2." he said, Tomo noticed something, he was scowling on the inside. "Zero, why do you have a scowl on your expression? You almost never hide a scowl on you." she said, Zero snorted out air. "It's my turn to deal with this mess, see you on the poker night!" he said as he exited out of the window, landed in a catapult and flew in air. "Um ma'am, what just happen?" asked the stupid guard who we'll never see again. "Depends, if things are going good, I might see him in the poker game." she said. "If not?" "We are going to see some serious deliveries of bake goods coming from Zero, and some phone calls to a certain scientist businessman." finished Tomo as she left. *** "Whhhhheeeeeeeeeeee!" said a AFZ (Annoying Flying Zero), as he flew through the sky from Vermont prison to New York, or more likely falling down to the streets of New York. Now the tourist who enter in New York would be shocked when they saw this mad man falling in the sky, and would be saying 'Oh my God! Someone is going to die!', while the native Yorkers would say, 'Oh look, it's Zero'. Honestly they were use to this shit by now. And soon Zero fell down onto a particular street, in a particular area, right before his base of operations. He gets up with a few dirt on his jacket, on how he survived that fall when clearly he should of died, because fuck you that's how. He then patted the dirt off as he shouted at the people inside the second story building in front of him. "PETRO! Open up this damn door!" shouted Zero. "How do we know it's you?" said someone inside the building. "Well Mark, I guess since I'm out here, I can tell everyone how you screwed up on that Denny order last month! Especially my white, red, and blue pancakes!" told Zero, a minute later the door opens. "Yeah, that's the Boss. No one would get pissed off more than him when someone misplace his order of America pancakes." said a guy. "Yeah, I'm just glad that we stole those pancakes from that old guy in the diner." said a lady. *** Meanwhile in a diner a month ago... A old man looked away from a younger man when his America pancakes were snatch from his hands by some fellows in strange S.W.A.T. suit. "We're taking this for a good cause!" said a troop, the man however merely shed a tear while whispering a word. "America." *** "Boss, your back from your vacation?" asked the man named Petro, he was a large Russian of six feet, white skin, shaved head, and yellow mustache on his face. He was buff with muscles and S.W.A.T. like armor on him. On his chest armor was a symbol, a symbol of a skull with a crack on it's front, and the number twenty-eight between the crack. "Yeah, and I heard there's this new species that just popped out of nowhere." replied Zero as he sit his ass down on the leather couch, Petro nodded his head. "You heard? Well the news about to get on, it's being showed in the U.N." said Petro as they turned the T.V. on and showed the live-action of the large meeting. While the group were watching it, Zero decided to do the smart thing, he took out a remote and fast-forward the scene of Sun-Butt the fatness. He also mocked her with his right hand. "Oh look at me, I'm the queen of fatness and of eating desserts, even though I shouldn't be eating them in the first place! I was the one who allowed the nation pop out of nowhere on your planet because of reasons, I also decided not to go back to my own stinking planet because of bullshit reason 69. Not to mention for some reason I made the Barrier in case any one was stupid enough to get near it, oh do I also mention if any human want to get in it they have to turn to a race that could easily enter through our land?" said Zero as he waited till the speech was done. A noise of scoff exited out of this hatted man. "Let's hope she isn't the Xeno Celestia, otherwise I'm just going to the author, punch him in the face for doing that crap, and making this a one-shot. Because honestly I don't want to deal with that shit." muttered Zero as he press the play button. "That is all." said Celestia as Zero turned off the t.v., Petro turned to Zero. "What now boss?" asked the 30 year old. Zero sighed. "It seems we need to adjust our plans of stealing, in case these ponies try to be 'goodies two-shoes' with us, and try to ruined our fun." he said as he jumped up. "Alright, here's what I want you all to do, I want you to check in our safe-houses and make sure they remained hidden, second I want someone to look in our buildings, make sure they're in good condition, then I want someone to see in our protection group and know we got their back. "Fifthly I want any info on these ponies ASAP, not to mention watch out for any unsuspecting aid from the cops during our heist. And finally I want to know when these ponies are going to do something on our home-turf!" ordered Zero as his gang shouted out their replied. "Yes sir!" Zero turned to Petro. "Now if you excuse me, I must focus on...other things, call me if anything comes up Petro." The Russian nodded his head. "You got it boss." With that response Zero left the building. *** Meanwhile in Minnesota... In the building of Neiltech, in the top of the floor was a man, a man sitting in his chair and behind his metal desk. He had blue hair, was he age of twenty, had black glasses on his face, and wore a business suit. He just got done watching the news over at the U.N., he sighed as he pressed a button on his desk. "Z, come here please." A door opens to reveal a eighteen year old kid, who was wearing blue jeans, white shirt, and a black hoody. His purple eyes look to his 'overlord' as his orange hair waved in a ginger like fashion. "Yeah what is it Nemo?" asked the one named Z. "Did you saw the news? Pretty odd a species of aliens just popped up out of nowhere." said Nemo, Z rolled his eyes. "Oh come on, this isn't the first time we met an alien species, remember those Agians?" "How could I forget? Your dating one." told Nemo. "Oh yeah sure, remind me that I'm dating the awesome girl ever." said Z, Nemo sighed and went on. "Look I want you to tell the others be on their guard, who knows what these ponies might do." Z looked caught off guard. "... well, THAT'S not something I thought you'd say today." "I know, and that worries me. Which reminds me, have you heard from Tomo?" asked Nemo, Z nodded his head as he sat down in a chair before the desk "Yeah, and she told me Zero left from his 'vacation home' and I quote 'from a catapult outside the building'. How did he even got it in the first place?" asked Z. "I don't know, and I don't care. But what I do care is being prepared, which means I want everyone on guard from these ponies." told Nemo. "Oh come on, what could ponies do?" asked Z. Nemo gave him a deadpan look. "And what could a moron like Zero could do with a few paper clips and a Klondike Bar?" Z sighed from that. "Nemo you're being ridiculous, if your that paranoid why not ask Zero to keep an ear out for these ponies?" "I rather trust Grey with my blueprints then ask for help from Zero." told Nemo harshly, Z just look at him with a smug smile. "You're still mad he stole your anti-matter prototype cannon and ridge it to make bake food, are you?" he asked. Nemo slammed his hand down on the table. "A WASTE OF POTENTIAL I SAY!" Z rolled his eyes at Nemo. "I'll tell the others about 'being prepared' about these ponies, have fun being a broody boss." "Just for that you're on extra patrol duty." told Nemo. "Damn it Nemo!" *** Zero place his cell phone to his ear as he hear the voice of his comrade. "You sure? Magic ponies?" asked the voice. "Oh yeah, and they just appeared, I don't like it, someone is messing on my home turf, and want to play for keeps." told Zero, the voice sighed as it was a male voice. "And why are you calling me about it? I know I'm a magical being and all, but I have a kingdom to run." "Because I know that I need your expertise if they do anything magical. Call me paranoid, but I rather be prepare with my cards, than to lose the Game all together." "Fine, fine, fine. What did this ruler called itself?" "Celestia." replied Zero. "...Excuse me a moment. I need to do some looking, call you later." As the call ended Zero put the phone down. "Hmm, well that's new." he turned to his large computer as he typed up information. "Hmm...I just know that these ponies are going to screw up my business somehow." muttered Zero as he look over the articles concerning ponies.
