Osis Arrives

Flying across the land Osis reaches the ocean. He was taken in by its beauty and revelled in the colors that he saw. "Oh brothers I come to see. Across the ocean lies the key. So beautiful and pure. For my melancholiness it is the cure. Ocean so big and blue. I hope the rest of the world is as colorful as you!" Osis said as he crossed the ocean. He would be flying for some time and he was enjoying every minute of it.

Meanwhile back in Kansas, Jim and company had finished their movie night. Astros had an expression on his face that Susan had seen before.

"You like what you see Astros?" Susan asked.

"Oh dear me, yes!" Astros responded. "This Thor character is quite a beautiful mortal specimen. One would think that he was a god."

"Ya," Susan responded. "I think he is hot too. What are your other thoughts of your first movie?"

"Well," Astros started, "I must say we do not have these in the realm of the gods, and in all my time in existence I have never experienced anything quite like it. Tell me just how many movies have you mortals made?"

"Countless," Jim answered, with a grin. "There are thousands and thousands of movies out there. A lot of them are good and a lot of them are bad."

Susan interjected, "and then there's porn."

"Porn?" Astros asked. "What is porn, would I like it? I rather enjoyed that last movie."

"Probably," Susan answered, smiling. "Porn is movies about sex, and focuses solely on the sex. Some have stories, but most are just sex. If you include porn movies, then there are millions of movies out there."

At this point Jim is blushing, he did not intend on bringing the subject of pornography up. He was also quite surprised that Susan was the one who brought it up. Before he could say anything Astros spoke up.

"I think I would like to see this porn." Astros said. "Can you show me it?"

Susan grinned an evil grin, "Of course," she said as she walked over to the computer in the hotel room. "Let me just bring some up."

"Do we really need to show Astros porn?" Jim asked. "There are a lot of nice movies and he has only ever seen one." Jim pleaded his case to death ears. Susan was already bringing up her favorite source of material and showing it to Astros.

Astros looked intently at the screen. His gaze was stuck on the images he saw. He just stood there motionless and speechless, watching as all the events unfolded on the monitor. When the video was finished he finally spoke. "Fairy girl, how did you discover such wondrous material to watch?"

Susan smiled and simply replied, "hey a girl has needs."

"I'm going to bed, we have a big day tomorrow." Jim said as he went to bed.

"Night Jim," Susan said, waving him goodnight. "You want to watch more Astros?"

"Sure," Astros responded.

"Real movies or porn?" She asked.

"I like them both!" Astros answered. "You pick for me, I cannot decide."

"Ok," she started, "I have an idea what to watch! Love story movies!"

Astros and Susan continued to watch movies until late in the night while Jim slept. Jim thought that tomorrow was going to be a big day because he was going to begin his campaign for president. Little did he know that it was going to be a big day for another reason all together. For tomorrow Osis would arrive and Jim will have to deal with that.

The next morning Osis is getting closer to shore, he can see the land in the distance. "Oh land I see you! Tired of the ocean blue! Wish I could stride along the ground true! For all night I have done nothing but flew." Osis said. As he made it to the shore he noticed the land was just as decayed and corrupted as the land he had left. "Oh dear me the underworld is here?! Is there no place it did not sear? I was hoping to see the flowers bloom. Alas this place is just a tomb. Will there be life where my brothers are? Or just another earthly scar?" Osis wondered if it was worth continuing his journey to meet his brothers. He did not know if the land where they were would be beautiful or dead. "I will press toward my goal! Hoping to see colors that touch my soul!" Osis continued his journey in hopes that there would be life where his brothers were.

Meanwhile back in Kansas, Jim had woken up first since he went to bed at a reasonable time. "Susan? Astros?" Jim called out to them but they were still sleeping. "I guess they stayed up too late last night. Damn it I told them we had a busy day today." Jim said to himself. "Guess I will order some breakfast." Jim called in room service and ordered a nice breakfast for the group. The smell of food filled the air and the sleepy headed duo woke up.

"Something smells good." Susan said as she shuffled into the kitchen area of the suite.

"Yes it does fairy girl." Astros said as he made his way to the table as well.

Susan took a look over Astros, "It's not fair," she said. Astros has awoken in perfect order. Not a hair on his head was out of place and he was just as beautiful as he always was. Susan on the other hand was a mess. All of her hair was on one side, her eyes were puffy from lack of sleep and her pjs were a wrinkly mess.

"What's not fair, Susan?" Jim asked as he prepared plates for both of them.

Susan glares at Jim, as she speaks. "Can you not tell? I wake up looking like a damn zombie and Astros wakes up just as beautiful as ever." She pauses as she looks Jim over, not a hair was out of place on him either and his suit was perfectly pressed. "You too?! Damn it being with gods is so annoying!"

"You look fine to me, fairy girl." Astros said, beginning to eat his food.

"Ah thank you Astros," Susan said while smiling at Astros.

After the crew eats their breakfast and Susan puts herself together they head out of the hotel.

"Ok so I think our first step should be to go to California, that's where the most people live and we can win the election easily if we set up base there." Jim explained. "Any objections?" He asked. "I honestly open to any better ideas."

Astros spoke up, "shouldn't you just get in that tv box?" He asked. "Oh I know we could make one of thos porn videos! That would be fun!"

"No," Jim snapped back, "That would be a terrible idea, and just no!" Jim turned to Susan. "Why did you have to teach him about porn?"

Susan shrugged her shoulders and answered, "seemed like fun."

"And is it fun?" Jim inquired.

"Yes," she responded, "I find this very fun. Astros is right though we should try to get on the news. They already have footage of me killing that bear. I would wager that they would love to have us as guests on their show. We would be able to reach a lot of people very quickly."

"So where do you think the news outlets are now?" Jim asked. "I mean before the apocalypse they were in New York and DC, but both of those cities were destroyed. Where do you think they would have moved the news office?"

"Well if this is the new capital, it stands to reason that they would be here." Susan replied. "It makes sense right? If they were in the capital before, of course they would be in the capital again."

"Makes sense." Jim said. "I wonder who we find them."

"Just do something flashy and godly and they should find you." Susan said. "I guarantee that they have been hunting for you since Chicago."

"But what could I…" Jim was cut off by a bird falling dead and landing near them. As if it were a reflex they all looked up and saw a man standing in the sky. He was tall and pale. He had long sickly grey hair and was wearing the same attire that Astros was wearing when they first met.

"Osis," Astros said, "this is not good."
