2. " *ahem*...'Hello and Welcome to the
next installment of Little Nemo's aka
TwilightOutside's first (Apoca)Legacy
ever, this time starring me, Beatrice Eden,
granddaughter to the Founder Anais
Eden, from Nemo's lost neighborhood,
Edenville. For a quick background of'...
no, this won't work, considering the
fact I don't have an own introductory
chapter... but I still advise anyone to
read the former episodes first....well,
let's continue here instead: 'Rules for
the Legacy Challenge and Apcoalypse
Challenge by Pinstar can be found at
www.legacychallenge.com'.... oh, and
the updated AC version for Bon
Voayage in the Apocalypse Chat at
www.boolprop.com or the exchange,
of course..."
----
fun fact: Compare Beatrice's introduction
with the introduction of episode 1 of this
story...

3. " 'As perhaps you've already
recognized, like most other
apocalypse challenges, we're at the
campus at La Fiesta Tech, there are
already enough fre...' no, this is
offensive, besides, regarding the
number of fre... of people not
matching the common requirements
of society in this neighrborhood -
vampires, zombies, aliens and
simselfs specifically- , 'normal' people
start to achieve this status...
Anyway: 'A short Look at my
personality: I'm a virgo, with a
personality of 4/7/8/3/3 - born
10/3/7/7/3. My turn-ons are custom
hair and glasses, my turn-offs
muscle's'... note to myself: change
turn-on's/off's later...'...and I rolled
popularity for myself - lifetime want
become a hall of famer...'*sigh*, not
achievably in college, hopefully an
aspiration change'll help..."

4. " Hmmmm...'... this time, I start at an
empty lot, to av...', no, not totally
correct... in fact, I'll start at the 'former'
empty lot my grandmother lived
on(!)... with all the achievements she
left here... 125 bottles of Elixir = 5
Legacy points...
...
...Somehow this place... it makes me
admire my grandmother... she was an
extraordinary Student... in honour of
her I wont delete these objects - since
they're restricted by the handicaps
anyway, this wont be such a
problem..."

5. Ehrr... well, where was I...? Ah yes: '
to make it harder, Legacy handicaps were
added, as it were:
- The Apocalypse (obviously - though
there wasn't a nuclear disaster, but
vampires taking control over the
neighborhood... watch chapter 2...),
- Aspiring to do it the hard way,
- Do it yourself,
- Free roaming Ghosts,
- Fearless,
- Matriarchy,
- Noble Composure,
- One way street,
- Presidential Physical Fitness,
- Storyteller,
- and True love... whew, that's 19 points
in total...
Originally 'middle of nowhere' was
another handicap, but with the rule
update for the AC with pets - who
couldn't go to work without a carpool -
Pinstar ruled, that these handicaps could
not be combined anymore...'... okay, did I
forget to mention something... ah,
yes..."

6. '...Okay, since the lot already costs
around 200 Simoleons, we have to choose
our equipment carefully...',.. yes, this is
still a vital maxime, although unlike
my Grandmother, I have a larger
amount of cash - 9500,- precisely - to
spend... and unlike her, the possibility
to create a student residence - though
sadly not a student union - for
common generations, as long as one of
our family stays here..."

7. "... and, since my younger brother
Brian will join me soon, I'll start right
now... first step: after removing some
of the bottles, I'll create foundation
elements and buy one stilt - a non-
talking one, basically to avoid further
subplots -, then use it to place a floor
at the next level..."

8. "... so I'll have a roof covering the
driveway I'll place now, while I add
further foundation elements..."

9. "... before I sell the luxurious chair
from my inventory - a (non-restricted)
gift from my mother for college and
part of the Glamour accessory add-on
- for additional 1200 Simoleons..."

10. "... to add further build elements and
also buy an expensive (and motive-
regaining) hot car for campus and
downtown excursions..."

11. "... which I'll immediately start... and
while I will do a first inspection to the
'apocalyptical' campus ground, I
advise you to read the following sup-
plot elements of this chapter, to gain
vital information of the current state
of the different fractions in our
neighborhood... thank you, and see
you hopefully later..."

12. Location: F.a.f.E Simself Lair, former
SimSim Prison by HaspHiba3:
" And now...."

13. "... Smile!"
" Hello to you all!"
" Wow, the first Simself crowd of
2008,... that's now... around 60
Simselfs on this lot!... we really get
some traffic here..."

15. " Okay, once again, I'd like to
welcome you all here at the F.a.f.E.,
hope you'll enjoy your stay, and
advise to follow the common rules,
such as not killing each other, don't
pee in the pool, don't make babies
with Gage... yep, he's here, though we
temporarily banned him from the lot,
in case anyone of you here is allergic
to werewolf hairs...or Gage
specifically...
so, any questions?"

16. " Oh, oh, I have one!"
" Yes, Starfrost?"
" What about Nemo? The story says,
that Uranium has captured him to get
control of this neighborhood and the
vampires here... which is strange,
since... well, we are inhis story, or
not?"
"... Starfrost, you know, you're
breaking the fourth wall with that,
right...?"
"... and what I really want to know, is,
what you're going to do about that? I
mean, you sit here, partying around...
has nobody thought of...ehr... a secret
rescue team or so to...well, 'finding
Nemo' ?"

17. " Well, Star, if you really want to
know, you should ask... Nemo
himself!"
" Ehrr.. Hello..."
"Hey, it's him!"
"Nemo's back!
" Did we miss a subplot sequence...?"
" Hey, Nemo, where's your
doppleganger?"
" Ehr, well.."

18. " Nemo, wie konntest du Uranium
entkommen? "
"...I beg your pardon?"
" Hallo, Deutsch? Du kommst aus
Deutschland, also verstehst du mich
doch... oder liegt das am Helm?"
" Ehrrr.. ah, yes , now I understand
you... sorry, no, it wasn't the helmet,
I'm just not... well, used to German..."
" Was?... I mean: What?"
" Well, truth to be told, I'm not... well,
I am partially, but... oh the heck, I'm
not the 'real' Nemo...
and no, 'he' didn't escape Uranium...
okay, now it's out..."
" ??? "

19. " Oh, okay, to give you the whole
concept: you know, that you can
upload Simselfs to the exchange,
right?"
" Yes..."
" Well, what you possibly don't know,
is that, while there is now the
possibility to download you at an
unlimited number, it's still 'you', who
appears in another
creators/stringpullers etc. realm...
limited in power, a bit different in
character, but still you... it's like...
living in multiple bodies at the same
time... sometimes you don't know
directly, where one of these 'Selfs' are,
but deep within your
subconsciousness, you still know..."
" ??? "
" I know, it sounds strange, but
believe me, it's the case... I made this
experience after what happened to
me... or him... whatever..."

20. " Well, to sum it up short... due to a
rare combination of factors... the first
Simselfs, m...him giving them enough
money to make any fortune Sim
insane, *sob*... growing custom
content, writer's block etc... well,
Uranium was not only able to capture
m..him, but in the same process to...
'separate' him from his other 'Selfs' -
it's like... 'corporeal schizophrenia' or
so - so we don't know, where the 'real'
Nemo is....
...Okay, sometimes I...we can receive
some of his thoughts, but we can't
communicate with him, and he
doesn't seem to know the place, where
he's captured either... and finally,
none of 'us' - power limit, remember?
- has the power to control the
neighborhood nor face Uranium... and
no other Simself here as well, not even
Ephemeraltoast, even if it's her Sim,
but since it's not her legacy, so... well,
only thing, 'I' can do, is to give
comments to the storyline, as I've
already did, while the actually
storyline is written by the family
and..."

21. *crickets chirping*
" Huh? Hey, where are you all of a
sudden?... Uh, that's angsty... am I in
the twilight zone?"
" Nemoclone, what are you still doing
there? Come in, there is a free place at
the bubble blower for you...!"
" Hey, my name isn't 'Nemoclone', I'm
Nemo... sort of...*Sigh*, why does
nobody ever listen to me....?"

22. Change of Location... yes, that's still me,
and I'm not 'Nemoclone', is that
clear...?... well, insert metallic, electronic
and mechanical sounds here for the
atmosphere…

23. "... Pffft, are you finished some
day..?... damn, to think, how fast some
other Sims are able to get a robot gold
badge..."
------
the Countess: former allied to the Count,
the 'official' leader of the evil vampire
army - unofficially, a chipmunk could do
better work - now on her own, officially
trying to redeem herself by reversing the
effects of the 'vampocalypse'... we'll see,
we'll see...

24. " Okay, that's it!! How often do I have
to tell you, Countess, that a robot gold
badge is not, I repeat, is NOT enough
for what you want me to do... this
involves great mechanical skills,
knowledge... heck, I'll have to rewrite
the basic of physic for that...!!!"
----
Note: Remember Albert Gieke? The Son of
Lucy and Gerard Gieke (- the OfB Nerd)
from chapter 2 (- little picture)? If not...
well, read episode 2 and the following
chapters... seems, that he has grown up...

25. " Yeah, yeah, whatever... I'm a
Pleasure Sim, why should I bother
with these details, otherwise I'd have
done this stuff myself... and didn't
need to rely on incompetent idiots all
the time... like your parents, for
example... "
" YOU... LEAVE MY PARENTS OUT
OF THIS, YOU.. YOU CRUEL,
INHUMAN...!!"
" Watch your tongue, boy... I may rely
on you now, but I'm not in the mood
for another one of your stupid
outbreaks.. and it's up to your choice
joining your parents..."

26. [insert spiritual music here:]
" *Sigh*... she's so rough with him all
the time... oh Gerard, we shouldn't
have tried to delay your work, even if
it was threatening the whole
neighborhood..."
"... yes, I know... but It would've been
too dangerous giving her this
technology... hopefully Albert has
more luck than us... *sigh*, if only you
hadn't been a secret spy of her trying
to seduce me..."
"Oh Gerard, I'm still so sorry... but at
that time, and being a knowledge
Sim... I just couldn't resist the offer to
turn into a vampir, be a secret spy and
conquer the neighborhood... can you
ever forgive me?"
" Oh, never mind... I'd have done the
same thing..."
" *Snif*.. oh, Gerard..."

27. " *Snif* WAAAAH, you killed my
parents, you soulless murder! I'm
totally alone now! you even forced me
to grow up before I could go to
reopened college... I swear, one day,
I'll take revenge and then you'll...!!!"

28. " Bla, bla... yes, I know, you've told me
already... sorry 'Fatman', but this
whole 'Avenge-my-parents-death'-
thing wont work, because I'm the one
here, who strikes fear into the hearts
of the weak and wears black... not to
mention that I can turn into a real
bat... now if you'll excuse me, I have
the need bite to bite some people after
this boredom... and don't forget, try to
run and you'll regret it, you hear
me...?"

29. " Pffft, what a whiner... does
somebody even count as a knowledge
Sim, who never rolls the want to
become a vampire, see his parents
ghost etc. at all...? "
*Bark, bark, Bark, Bark* (translation:
Secret Agent Flea to secret Werewolf
empire central: Elvis has left the building,
I repeat, Elvis has left the Building... )
----
Note: if you've read the former chapters,
you now, that the dogs of the
neighborhood are in fact spies of the secret
werewolf empire... too bad, that there still
aren't any werewolves yet, except Gage...
and hey, I didn't thought that out, that
was the 'real' Nemo, okay...?

30. " Grrrr... and I still swear, she'll pay..."

31. "... and I will get my revenge..."

32. "... and you're going to help me with
that, my friend, right?"
...oh, oh... to be continued... arg, why I
can't just tell and show you ... damn
limited-writing-and-sticking-to-the-story-
arc-powers...

33. Anyway, next Location: the Counts
Castle, headquarter of the evil vampire
army - and yes, it's Uranium Apocalypso
from Ephemeraltoast's Apocalpyse A -Go-
Go, who is really in charge, while the
Count..., well...

34. "... and if you steal my underwear just
one more time, I'll skin you alive and
wear you as a coat, is that clear?!!!"
" Ooooh... but I like to wear these
things, my love...*drool*..."
" Oh, you...hrrgh... buy some yourself,
moron!"
" Uhhm... couldn't you do that for me,
my Love... I mean, I'm a Count, what
will people think, if I...?"
"... I don't believe this, there are
dozends of Counts out there, but I'm
the one stuck with Count
Crossdresser-in-the-closet...!... Okay,
but at least make yourself useful then,
go downtown, bite some people, and
stop looking like a puppy at me,
dammit...!"
----
Note: for the Counts hidden desires,
watch the former chapter... Warning:
don't get blind while looking at him...

35. " *Sigh*... she's always so rough...
awww, if I just weren't so in love with
her..."

36. and so...
" Gaaaaze..."

37. ... both the Count AND the Countess...
"...intoooo...."

38. ...paid the downtown a visit,....
"...myyyyy...."

39. ... and raised the local vampire population
again...
"....eyyyyessss...."

40. ... and this time, they didn't even stop by
biting only regular townies, Simselves
were on their list, too, like Renee aka
Cowforbrains (Ashbua Legacy,
AgainLegacy et al.)- well, she already was
a zombie and/or werewolf before, so being
a vampire isn't that bad...
"...annnnd...."

41. ... or Willowdanin ( Armageddon
Apocalypse Challenge)....
".....leeeeeet...."

42. ...or MichelleFobbs (a Planetary
Apocalypse -Challenge)...
"....meeeeee...."

43. ...or SnootCB (the Apocachocolypse AC)...
"....BITE!"

44. ...and now for a little Break from our
regular schedule:
"Bleh!... Hi folks, I'm the rich guy from
bon voyage, who tramps around with
his family... as you see, I've got
infected with vampirism... so don't
forget, to prevent getting any diseases
while traveling to foreign countries,
get your shots first, its better, believe
me!"
"Urrrrgl... right, dear citizens, health
protection is important, say's zombie
maior Goopy too... so if you go to vote
this year,remember how important a
functioning health care system is and
vote again for Goopy!"
... this totally pointless election special
was brought to you on request of zombie
maior Goopy... sorry, these subplots have
a life of their own, can't do anything
about this... though my advise, if there is
an election and you won't vote, don't stay
at home, rather give it to Goopy literally...
it won't count, but they're still part of the
actual percentage of all voters, and can
give politicians headaches, if their
percentage of votes sounds lower... ;)

45. ... and now - you all had your shots now,
right? - up to a new location... insert
hawaian beach music here....
"... Aaaah, that's life...."
... and yes, that's Sonicdude (the Valistor
Legacy) again, Leader of the zombie army
of this neighborhood... or rather, zombie
dance group, or dancing army, or...
whatever...

46. " Daaad...!"
" *grunt*.... Oh, please, what is it this
time? First you scream: 'Are we there
yet?' all the time on the way here..."
" I did not!"
" ... well, then it must've been in a
movie I've seen... anyway, what're
you complaining about? It's warm, the
organisation of this place is great,
interesting scenery..."
" DAD, THIS IS..."
------
... and this is his daughter Christ(!)ina... a
pregnancy experiment with one of.. the
'other' Nemos in fact... poor girl...

47. " ... HELL!!!!"
...replace hawaian beach music with punk
and heavy metall, including screams of
the damned, sounds of burning flesh,
molten lava and... hawaian beach music in
a loop for the rest of your life...
oh, and again: this is parody-only,
hopefully nobody gets offended by making
fun of religious themes...

48. " Ah, Ah, Ah, isss sssomebody here
ssscreaming... oh, new guestssss...
temporarily or permanent, yessss?"
" EEEEEEEEKKSSS!!!!"
" Temporarily... though with this brat
I'm ready to take another vacation
right after this one..."
" Ah, I ssseeee.... zeeee 'villainsssss
special', right? "
" Correct... first I thought about
Kuba,... what was the name of that
place... Gu... Guan... anyway, Hell had
better prices, and the exchange for
souls was currently better than
dollars..."
" D....DAAAD, THAT IS...."

49. " ....'HIM' !!!!"
" Didn't I tell you to stop screaming, if
other people are around... and he's the
manager of this place, so would you
please finally behave, okay?!"
-----
Note: Remember 'him'? A tip: think of
Eden... or just read episode 4 again...

50. " Oh, no ssssweeaaat, Mr...
Ssssonicdude, right? We've already
had contact, yessss?"
"Hm? Oh, yesss... I mean, yes, we
did... you're still not going to hand me
over hell, right?"
" Ssssorry, I'm afraid not... and zissss
issss your daughter, right?"
" Yes... sadly, she didn't turn quite
right... must've been bad blood from
her mother.... you wouldn't possibly
trade her against a vacation house
here?"
" DAAAD!"
" Again I'm sssorrry, Mr.
Ssssonicdude... ssspoiled bratsss aren't
my favourite Ssssoulssss either... in
fact, even my own ccchildren didn't
turn out sssso...oh, well..."
" You have children?"
" Oh, yessss.... in fact, I've tried lotsss
of timessss over zeee millenia to get a
decccent heir... ssstill no sssuccesss,
unfortunately...."

51. "... Boss, have you time?"
"...excussse me a moment... yeeesss,
Maxssswell?"
" There is a guy, who want's to speak
with you... say's, he's your
grandson..."
" Oh for zzze love of... I mean, if you
jussst ssspeak of 'me'... okay, sssend
him over...."
"... and there is another petition from
the potty god followers, they're still
complaining about the fact, that they
are all sent here..."
" I don't have zzeee time for that yet,
jusssst double zzzzheir
punissshment... oh, and ssstill no
toiletssss for them, yesss?"
" Sure thing, boss!"

Note: credits to Ophidia for making the
Ssss... snake skin at mts2, and for pontiac
1979 to make Maxwell's horns... and to
the guy, who made the red skin and
uploaded it at the exchange...

52. " ...Ssssooo..."
" Ähh... Hallo, Opa... " [translation:
Hello, Grandfather...]
" Adolph... you're ssstarting to annoy
me.... what issss it zzzisss time... again
not allowed to artssss academy?
Cccchurchill? Or jussst your favourite

" Ich... ich... sie haben mich gekillt...
[translation: I... I... they killed me...]"
" And now you're asssking me to...
what?"
" Ich...."
" I told you, Adolph, zzzhat I wont

53. " Ich... Ich.... WAAAAH... *sob*!"
" Ah, ah... Adolph.... ssstop crying....
I'm sssorry, my temper... you're ssstill
my favourite grandsssson after all....
okay? Now come, I'll sssend Mr. Grim
a note, you'll be ressssurrected in no
time..."
----
Note: I think, I can speak for the 'real'
Nemo as well, that this is again meant as
a parody, and after all, It's 'Simler', not...
but I already said last time, that he'll
pay... prepare for more...

54. " Ah, thisss boy isss driving me zzeee
nutsss... but I'm ssstill proud of him...
hisss father turned out to be zzza
nearly complete failure, but he... had
potenzzzial... too bad, zzzzat zzzis is
ssstill no guarantee for
intelligenczzzze..."
" Brrr... I never understood, why they
made you boss here... but if he's your
son..."
" Grandsssson, pleasse... and assss I
sssaid, he'sss rather dumb.... though
not the worssst of my ancessstors...
well, that'sss the crosss with zzeee

ssshe broke up with me.... I ssshould

Oh [csssencored]...."
-----
Note: watch ep. 4 again... ;)

56. " Well... only for information... why
didn't you at least try it then..or force
her to come back to you, if it's stil
'you'..."
" Sssadly, Mr. Ssssonicdude, this wont
be posssible anymore... asss I sssaid, I
wassss young, and it hasss been a long
time ssssincce then... and ssshe never
came down here, ssso...."
" Wait, so you don't know...???"
" What?"
"... Hm...well, what if I tell you, that I
know...uhm... a way, to get your girl
back, alive and still sexy?"

57. "... Do you mean zzzat... for real?"
" Yes... yes, of course, now what
would you give me for that, hm?"
"... what issss your pricssse...?"

58. " I want the HELL! "
insert thunder cracks and DUN DUN
DUN DUN DUN here...

59. " The... Hell?! Are you insane?!!"
" Hey, where did your funny 'Ssssnake
accent' go...?"
" Screw the accent, that's only for paying
customers, and you're lucky, that I'm still
bound to the contract, or I'd keep you
here right now... and believe me, It'll be a
feast for me, once you come down here
permanently, to get the information out
of you..."
" Oh, this'll be a long time then, because
once I've conquered the world... how
many cowplant victims are currently
living there...?"
" You're pushing your Luck, kiddo..."
" Okay, okay, how about a partnership
then at least... 50% of hell's worth, okay?"
" YOU.... 0,00001 %, not more..."
" 49,9999 %, or we'll forget it..."
" NO!"
" then forget it..."
" .... 0,05 %, and I'm really generous with
that..."
" ... 49,5 %, or I'll go..."

60. " Grrnghrmblnr... Last offer: 0,5 %!"
" 49, 499999%"
" You're kidding, right..?.. 0,1 %, and I'll
get your daughter in exchange!"
" Never...!...and I want a harem of demon
chicks for her at least!"
" DAD!"
" A demon..?.. you'll get my grandmother
at most!"
" At least five demon chicks...!"
" One!"
"Three!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
" Daaaddddy... *sob*"
" Hehe, don't worry, sweetheart... if
there's something, the boss likes more
than punishing souls, it's striking a good
deal... and this one'll take quite some
time, I think... sooo, in the meantime,
how about us spending some 'quality
time' together, hmmm...?"
" I WANNA GO HOME! "
... sadly, to be continued...oh, I see, we're
through with the sub-plots for now... okay,
finally back to Beatrice and her campus
adventures...

61. " HAAAAAAARRRRR...!"

62. "... oh, hello, dear readers, sub-plots
are over? Then, let me tell you now,
what happened to me in the
meantime... currently I spend some of
my time at the Temporary Campus
Club..."

63. ... which was built, while the political
instability still wont allow bigger
buildings, if they aren't for vampires
only... no great comfort, but enjoyable...
we have a sauna, massage dishes, a camp
fire...well, it's a start...

64. ... and this is the Campus Temporary
Centre...nothing big either...

65. ... but at least it offers a basic standard of
educational needs... CIP Pool, books, a big
television screen for guest lecturers...
most of our professors are actually guest
lecturers, who adivse us via the media
from outside the country...

66. ... and, of course, an electronics stand
with cellphones... still, there seems to be a
lag from the overload of the
communication servers even here at
campus... this made it harder for me, to
get in contact with the members of the
secret society, that my Grandmother
joined...

67. Luckily, I was able to trace them down by
old pictures, showing my grandmother
with members of the society - like this one
- or, according to time passed, probably
his son, who just falls to the admirable
money grabbing skills of this obviously
treacherous NPC... I wonder, if I'll could
achieve these skills, too?

68. ...another member was Maja, actually the
second person my Grandmother was ever
friend of... she became the Connection
student for Vampires at Campus, working
for a better understanding between
vampires and non-vampires... a honorable
goal, Hopefully it'll work out...

69. ... finally, since I'd achieved enough
friendships with secret society members -
the beforementioned as well as my
Grandmother - I also became friends with
our Prof... she knew my Grandmother,
and immediately followed my Uncle's
call, when they reopened campus... she
had a safe place downtown, but no car, so
I took her with me a few times... of course,
this wasn't in any way related to the fact,
that I was one of her best students...

70. ...and still determined to my goal, to get
even with my Grandmothers 'greatest'
achievement... 130 best friends!...
Admittedly, times are harder, friendships
do easier end now... but I'll try hard, and
I have some advantages unlike my
Grandmother : Business perks for advance
friendship, maximized skills... and a
bigger pool of possibly friends, alive and
undead, then she ever had...

71. ... but of course, I didn't let my other
skills go loose... so I achieved a Gold
stylist Badge on my travels, too...to be
upright, this achievement was also
connected to a loss...well, I've just had
achieved my Silver badge together with
Jon, a student I shared three bolts with
(!)...

72. ... when all of a sudden, the Count
appeared, making him the next victim of
his diabolical scheme... I only could escape
with sheer luck... only to find, that the
Count had strangely plundered the whole
underwear section, just when I had
enough money from styling to spend into
new clothes...*sigh*

73. ... but nevermind... while downtown, I
met of course some of my family members,
too... and also Nicolai, the spouse selected
for me, when I was chosen Heiress...
strangely, he wasn't too pleased seeing me
here...

74. ... but I added that to the fact, that I still
had to study four more years, until we
could get married and found the next
generation... still, I already discussed the
number of babies we'd need to continue
the legacy... I suggested him to have three
babies at least, plus additonal ones, if they
weren't girls...

75. ... his reaction, however... was bit a cold...

76. ... and then he accused me of being a
heartless monster... only thinking about
achieving babies, like they were skill
points... not to mention 'his' feelings, if
he'd even get any right in this decision, if
he even wants children...
...In fact, deep down, he was touching a
nerve... I've really never thought about
that... and I started to wonder, if it was
the same, when my dear father, General
Long, joined our family... had anyone ever
asked him, when it was opened to him,
that he had to marry my baby mother and
have children with her...?

77. ... with that in mind, I assured him, that
of course he had a right to discuss the
topic with me... only circumstances
forbade, to decide against children at all...
but if there was anything, to made this...
sacrifice easier for him...?

78. ... his anwser was quite... perplexing at
first, but in the end somehow logical...:
'Money'!... well, as a Fortune Sim, he
clearly suffered great from the
vampocalypse and his restrictions,
regarding buying new objects... so money
was the only thing, that could possibly
brighten his days... though I had hoped
for... something else as a compensation...,
but never mind...

79. ... and since there was a still a College
house to build, too, I found, it was a good
time, to try out the new options brought
in with the Bon voyage Add-on... though I
couldn't imagine, that there was actually
a chance to dig up any treasures here, far
away from any sea's or piratical
acitivity...

80. ... so I was more then surprised, to find
anything at all during my digging... like
bones...

81. ... or water pipes...and of course, the water
was still poisoned due to evil vampires
activities...

82. ... but even these misfortunes couldn't
stop me from continuing this quest...

83. ... and in the end, it paid out...happy, I
was able to give my grandmother the
achievements of my diggings for Nicolai...

84. ... three treasure maps, which probably
showed the way to three pirate treasures!
" Pffft... couldn't you give me a real
treasure instead? what should I do
with these maps? Do you think, I'll
follwo these maps now... only to find
out, that there aren't probably any
treasures, but perhaps only stupid
medicin men, zen guys and bigfoot's
instead??!"
... again, there were things I didn't really
thought about... so I had to switch to
another way to get money...

85. ... but it wasn't until my Uncle Antoine,
who visited downtown...

86. ... to meet his new girlfriend, to help me
find another solution... though this isn't
about his new girlfirend, but his other
friend...

87. ...Ephemeraltoast, writer of the
Apocalypse A-Go-GO... a real surprise for
me, since my Uncle was normally rather...
biased against Simselfs...perhaps it was
really true, and age has... well dampened
his sharp intellect a bit...
" Haha, won again!"
" Damn, how can you possibly win
every time?"
" Well, if you're always trying it with
paper..."
" That's not a paper, that's a treasure
map, and treasure maps belong to
pirates, and pirates always win..."
" Well, this isn't a scissor either, it's a
double forked Hook, and Hooks
belong to pirates as well..."
" Really?"
" Yup!"
" Damn..."
... then again, Simselfs aren't known for
their sharp intellect, either...

88. ... though there are exceptions...
" Greetings, dear Simself, I'm sorry,
but I just couldn't overhear you and
my uncle talking about pirates right
now... see, I'm currently on a quest
digging for pirate treasures, but so far
I don't know, where to search
exactly... you can, by any means,
provide me with any vital information
about pirate treasures and possible
hide-outs?"
"... You know, you're a weirdo: you
claim to be a Popularity Sim, but
you're acting like a [censored]
Knowledge muncher...do you actually
listen to your own words at all...?"
"... Oh, I'm sorry, if my manner of
speak causes you any inconvenience,
if you want I'll try adapt it to a level
better understandable for
you...*ahem*... 'Hey buddie, got infos
fer' me? I'm currently digging fer'
nothing, that sucks... now gimme'
some words already..."
"... how did you actually get any
friends at all?"
"... ehr... I stun them?"

89. "...whatever... okay, to answer your
question: if you're searching for
treasures, the best way to find them,
is... to forget it! "
"... I beg your pardon...?"
" *sigh*, for someone so smart, you're
amazingly dumb... girl, most pirates
never ever even had enough money,
that it was neccessary to dig the
smallest hole in the ground... Tortuga,
Port Royal... all these places were
made to let pirates lose their money
faster, then they could earn it... I'm
surprised, that you even tried it... I
mean, who would be so dumb to
think, that they could actually find
anything else, then..."

90. - absolute unavoidable subplot sequence
with Jack Sparrow and Frank the Stilt -
"... bones, waterpipes... I'm starting to
loose hope, mate..."
" Oh, oh, oh, Captain, why don't we
just hide a treasure first and then
search for it? I bet, we'll find a
treasure then!"
"Mate, we're 'searching' for a treasure,
because we don't have one..."
" Ohhh, I haven't thought of that..."
"... if we could at least find anything to
get out us out of this
neighborhood...too many Undeads
here, Mate, I can tell..."

91. "... well, anyway... if you really want
to make money... Sing!"
" ... I beg your pardon?"
" *sigh*, Girl, you've got all 10
creativity points... just start singing
and wait for other to give you money
for that... heck, you can even make
friends that way... never thought of
that?"
"... in fact, I've already thought about
it... but found it a rather unlogical
solution... I don't think, that people
will share money under these harsh
conditions..."
" Oh, for the love of... tell you what,
just do it... now if you'd excuse me, I
have the need to ask a certain helmet
guy, if all his Sims are Thesaurus
addicted, but don't have any social
skills..."
... uh, oh...

92. ... though I didn't achieve the information
I had hoped for, I followed the Simselfs
advice... and was surprised, to find so
many admirers of music, even in this
harsh times...

93. ... were it Simselfs or regular townies, at
the disco or regular lots...

94. ...with or without stink... *ahem*.. well,
but I earned my first five thousand rather
fast...

95. ... though what I didn't expect, was the
interest I seemed to cause for a specific
fraction, the zombies(!)... of course, I was
relieved, that they only wanted to talk
with me, not devour me alive...

96. ... instead I had the Honour, to meet the
Leader of the zombies in our
neighborhood, General Don Zombie...
----
Don Zombie, made my Maxis... and
Candie020765 of course, was named
General by Sonicdude, while being on
vacation... see former... well, you know
already...

97. " Hello, Bea, I'm pleased to meet you...
the Guys said, you're a really good
singer..."
" Thank you, Mr. Zombie... uhm,
you're not going to devour me, right?"
" Wha... no, of course not... unless
you're bowl of chili in disguise... or a
bottle of Booze... what wouldn't I do
for some booze now..."

98. "... I'm sorry to interrupt you, Mr.
Zombie, but... according to my
knowledge of the existing fractions in
these neighborhood, aren't zombies...
well, declared as evil forces? At least
there was a claim, that they try to
conquer the neighborhood, too, which
means..."

99. " Pfft... not this old story again...."
" Is this an anwser to my question?"

100. "... Mrs. Eden, I assure you... I never
wanted this whole conquering-the-
neighborhood-thing... I'm a rather
peaceful guy, who just got a job he
never wanted... believe me, I'd be
happy, if I could live in peace with my
family and with enough booze and
chili, far away from the troubles of
this neighborhood... "

101. "... Hm, yes, this sounds convincing...
still, I don't understand, why you're
interested into my musical skills
then...?"

102. " Oh, rather easy, Mrs. Eden... see, the
guy who actually called me here,
wanted dancing zombies... don't know
why... well,as I said, I'm not really into
conquest... and since booze and chili
doesn't even seem to exist here... why
not spent my time with something
useful at least...?... and well, dancing
requires music, so..."
" May I interpret the meaning of your
words the way, that you... want to
hire me to sing for your zombies?"
"... well, yes, Bea, that's the whole
point... I admit, this may sound rather
odd first..."
" What will be my payment?"
"... so you accept?"
" With an appropriate payment, yes."
" Okay, well, then... tell your price..."

103. ... and after getting offered a really
generous payment, I got my first bigger
'Gig'. We decided for a small concert first
to get to know each other better at the
newly opened concert hall, the 'Burned
Barn'...

104. ... and truth to be told, it was a rather
enjoable evening...
Okay, listen up, everybody:
Another head hangs lowly, child is slowly
taken
and the violence causes silence
who are we mistaken

105. But you see, it's not me, it's not my
family
In your head, in your head they are
fighting

106. with their tanks and their bombs
and their bombs and their guns
in your heads, in your heads they are
cryin'

107. in your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie, e, e,
what's in your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie, e, e, e, o

108. Another mother's breaking, heart is
taking over,
when the violence causes silence
we must be mistaken

109. it's the same old theme since 1916
in your head, in your head, they're still
fighting

110. with their tanks and their bombs,
and their bombs and their guns
in your head, in your head, they're still
dying
In your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie, e, e
what's in your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie, e, e, e, o, o, o, o, o,
o, o

to argue' -

111. *clap* clap* clap*
"WOOOOOO!"
"ENCORE, ENCORE!"
" YAAAHOOOO..."
... yes, I really had fun this evening...

112. ... and for the money I received for this
first time, I was able to complete the
student residence... well, there is still
something to add, but It'll be enough, till
Brian joins me... which will be exactly
happen in the next part... for now, I like to
thank you all for bearing with me through
this long, stressful chapter, and I'll hope
we'll see some day again...
Bye...

113. ... and now, still the unavoidable
Epilogues again...
" *sigh* Oh, Jerry..."
" Yes, dear...?"
" You know, I thought... since even
our grandchildren are out of the
house now... I just feel a bit old yet..."
" Oh, for me, you still look hot, girl..."
"... no regrets, choosing a weird
looking girl instead of a 'normal'
woman... like your other downtown
bro's in other apocalypse
Challenges..?"
" Well, since you call me 'Mr.
Apocalypse' for a reason... let's say, I
seem to have a fetish for the
weird....he,he..."
" ... smart mouth... so, what do you
say then about a little...?"

114. [censored due to obvious reasons...]

115. " Grandma, everything okay...?"
"... wurrgl.... everything's great, dear...
but I didn't remember eating anything
for years, so why do I still...ah yes,
absurdities everywhere... *sigh* Alex
took three tries, and Amaryllis and
Antoine two... seems like my stats are
getting better..."

116. Epilogue II:
"... Aaah, wieder lebendig, danke,
Opa... Haha, ich bin wieder
d...aaaack!" [translation ~ alive again,
thanks, Grandpa...Haha, I'm
ba...aaack!]
*dies*

117. " ... dumdedumdedum...."
"... and I still don't think, it's a good
idea, Uranium, to let Dr. Lecter cook
our meals..."
"... Oh shush, Jack, he's the only one
with decent cooking skills... and so
far, he didn't kill anyone, right?"
"... true, but..."
" ... and don't tell me, you never drank
any cowplant milk, so what would be
the difference?...By the way:
Sephiroth, where have you actually
buried Simler? His Ghost hasn't
appeared for quite some time now..."
"... buried?"
to be continued... yes, this chapter is
finally over, honestly...

118. ... I lied... XD... this chapter was hosted by
the Roomies from La Fiesta Tech... Happy
Simming!
