lord when's adventure 2, Friendship

By John Pirillo

He was just an ordinary kid in his own mind. A teenager dealing with hormonal changes, teenage angst and never having enough time to dream.
One day everything changed. An inter-dimensional being named Binky opened a door into his attic getaway and took him on a journey through time and space to meet the Lord When.

To his amazement he found out he had been chosen to replace the aging Lord When. Before he could demand a reason why, or ask to be taken back, Lord When had passed away, leaving him alone with Binky, a snotty artificial intelligence with the single intent of driving the poor kid into being a hero, like it or not.

And thus began an adventure where every day he was training to become something he wasn't sure of, to battle situations he had no clue as to the magnitude of, and to help people like himself, who maybe didn't even know they needed help.

What a universe to fall into and all that without a decent MP3 player to listen to.

For Bleep everything had gone wrong, he had rescued the child he was ordered to save, but when he returns to his home planet, the Lord When has passed away, leaving him alone and horribly sad. He wants to join his master in the next life, but Robert, also alone, wants to save him, but does he know enough to do so.

So begins the first real test of the new Lord When's ability to do the right thing. Or has all his training been for nothing?

Preface

What's gone before:

For Bleep everything had gone wrong, he had rescued the child he was ordered to save, but when he returns to his home planet, the Lord When passed away, leaving him alone and horribly sad.

He wants to join his master in the next life, but Robert, also alone, wants to save him.

The two are not working as a team yet. Binky doesn't want to keep on without the first Lord When and Robert doesn't want to be told what to do by an artificial intelligence. At the same time he also doesn't want to lose his new companion.

How can he save Binky and still retain his sense of freedom?

So begins the first real test of the new Lord When's ability to do the right thing.

Or has all his training been for nothing?

Part One: The World Beyond Grief

"I have traveled the stars near and far,

and time from stem to stern.

Yet have I to see a man who is always lost,

that destiny does not turn.

Those who lay their treasures up in heroic deeds

and plots thick with action and adventure,

Never once thinking of the love they've lost

will one day see the truth, of that I am sure.

Even a small child who has grown too fast

far from the soothing hand of love,

shall find their hearts become complete

and become gentle as the dove.

For it is said in a thousand million worlds

that only one path is true

and that is the path we each must take

to earn what each is due." -- From the poetry of Lord When

I looked on in horror and grief as Binky became more and more shrouded in smoke and electric sparks. The poor creature was dying from a broken heart.
