User blog:TransportFan2014/Multi-Universe Stories: Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

And here it is, the absolute last episode of my MultiVerse stories from the AsphaltLand chapter. Maybe the series from my point of view would continue, but one sure thing is that any sort of racing will NEVER be featured (unlike P1 Boy's, R8 Tyke's and Azelfland's), but rather, it would be based on a concept of a game consisting of my favourite games (FSX, GTA EFLC, PUBG) and some other non-racing related games being integrated into one (Halo, Driver: Parallel Lines etc).

Title of this episode is obtained directly from a quote in PUBG (the only non-open world game I would enjoy playing), and the fact that by this point, I have successfully left the racing scene, and would no longer be anywhere there.

The following will be depicted:

• The journey to my plane
• Finding and rescuing my friends who were captured in the previous episode
• AsphaltLand getting struck by natural disasters (reference to the movie 2012, except that the catastrophe is not on a global scale)
• My friends and I leaving AsphaltLand for good while AsphaltLand crumbles to nothing (again, 2012 reference)
• The journey back home, officially marking my termination of motorsport involvement

The initial journey to the getaway vehicle

10 September 2019, 1630 hours in AsphaltLand, one hour before our planned departure; it will be raining heavily at that period

Margaret: Are you sure you wanna leave for New York when it is raining heavily?

Me: I need the heavy weather to allow us to leave. Sure, heavy rain will deter our ability to drive away. BUT, not one of Vincent's goons can handle pursuits in bad weather well.

Margaret: But.... we need some unbrellas or raincoats-

Me: We will be using raincoats, maybe. Avoid umbrellas since they will hamper our ability to shoot.

Kimberley: Right now all we need to do is to check our weapons. Uzi, ARC-920 Railgun, Beryl M762, AWM, SCAR-L, M16, DP-28, MP5K, Plasma Repeater, and Beretta 686, along with MLRS-1 HGL Hydra Launchers, M41 SSR MAV/AW SPNKr Rocket Launchers, MA5D, Hybrid BR85N, M363 RPD Sticky Detonators, and W/AV M6/E G/GNR Spartan Lasers, T-58 LAAW Fuel Rod Cannons, T-50 DEW/H Concussion Rifles, Talon of the Lost, a special T-56D GML Needler that can directly damage vehicles, Z-400 PDGG Splinter Grenades, Z-110 DEP/E Boltshots, Z-130 DEAW Suppressors, Z-250 DEEW LightRifles, Z-180 CCR/AEM Scattershots, Z-750 SASR Binary Rifles, and more W/AM Z-390 HEMR Incineration Cannons.

Me: Oh, before we forget. Any idea if we could find where our friends are currently hidden at?

Douglas: I hope they are not hidden in AsphaltLand, but only KITT can tell. Maybe those allied fiends would assist KITT in finding them, but we better hope they are not in here.

Margaret: Well.... we have more than enough artillery. So far we have got all those UNSC weaponary with us, along with our default weapons.

Me: And tons of ammunation. 9mm, 5.56mm, 7.62mm, Plasma charges, Ionised particles... you name it.

Kimberley: And .300 Magnum rounds. But yeah, we have more than enough 7.62 rounds.

Douglas: Are you sure you wanna escape in bad weather?

Me: I am certified for IFR flight- something which not a single VVS member has. They may have the most powerful cars, but you know.... bad weather equals speed does not mean everything. We also destroyed their fighters, and none of them could use their C-5 Galaxies, C-17 Globemasters and Il-76s in bad weather.

(a message from N801NW, the Airbus A330; conversations between me and N801NW are through the ACARS)

N801NW: I will be locating your friends with the help of KITT. Should be able to find them in two hours time, which means that you don't have to U-Turn back here just to find your friends.

Me: Just wondering if N389AA is coming as well, though I advised her not to.

N801NW: N389AA wanted to come, but had to act as a replacement aircraft for a revenue flight using an aircraft that is now suffering from technical difficulties.

Me: She had been a daredevil, but I am glad she did not have to risk herself.

N801NW: Confirm that there are four people boarding me?

Kimberley: Yes, four. And don't worry, Margaret, we will get you out of here, with Douglas. Don't worry about getting all the hate when we reach New York- Lily has explictly said she will spare you. Besides, my younger sis also did a similar thing that you did- except she was not involved with the bullies. Lily forgave her too, so she would forgive you also. Anyway, we just need to get out of this city for good. Check all weapons. By the way, we may have a total of 12 occupants, if I find my former classmates before we arrive.

Me: Yep, make it four. At least.

N801NW: Fine. I have just taken off. Expect my arrival within 50 minutes of your journey.

Kimberley: (also using the ACARS) Say your callsign?

N801NW: Northwest 5562 heavy.

Me: Okay. Thanks. I gotta test my weapons and plan an escape route.

N801NW: Good luck.

(after 30 minutes of weapon testing and route planning)

Kimberley: Wanna say your final goodbyes to Pholia??

Margaret: Maybe. To be honest with you, I was hoping I can taunt Jennifer as well. Too bad I screwed up and killed her.

Kimberley: They would be breathing their last breaths anyway.

(in the dungeon where Pholia is held hostage)

Pholia: WHAT DO YOU C***S WAANT??!!!

Kimberley: Scream all you want. And in case you don't know, my sister actually had a similar fate to Margaret- being a bully previously. But, Margaret took a lot longer to turn a new leaf.

Me: Sure, I may be responsible for this. But remember, Kim gave you the chance to turn around. But you hurled all the insults. Sure, I know I am partly responsible, but the fact that you chose to insult my friend, who did nothing wrong, meant you are going to enjoy your punishment. You could have hurled all the hate on me, not them. Also, one day some people will burn this castle down. Since you and your mother chose to curse my friends, you two just have minutes left to live.

Pholia: YOU DESPICABLE IDIOT!!! IS KIDNAPPING ALL YOU CAN DO???!!

Me: I intended to keep myself out. But since you chose to cross my path and hurt my friends, I would not turn a blind eye on this.

Margaret: Not to mention your allies- the VVS- made P1 Boy turn against his friends. You did the same to my boyfriend, as well as R8 Tyke's date, Zoe. And R8 Tyke himself. I am not going to ignore this.

Pholia: YOU ANIMALS!!! DON'T THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS!!

Me: Keep insulting us some more. We are outta here.

Margaret: If you think insults will work, you need a bath. douses Pholia with three barrels of gasoline I hope ya learn not to try to hurt our feelings!

Pholia: screaming goat

Kimberley: Let's leave. I am concerned that Vivendi would eventually discover us hiding here.

Douglas: Even if they do discover, there is nothing they can do when fiends like Cactuars, Insect Matriarches and Elder Drakes are banging them from the inside out.

Pholia: COME BACK YOU SICK F***S!!! LET US GO!!! (As Margaret, Douglas, Kimberley and I head for the Chrysler 300) Just you wait.... trying to release herself

(at the getaway car)

Kimberley: So you are saying.... we gotta take the long route??

Me: Yes. It may seem counter-intuitive, but we need to give the plane time to refuel and undergo maintenance. Going head on also allows the VVS to track us- as if the presence of goons in their C5s, C17s and Il-76s are not enough. One sure thing though.... we wrecked their fighters. So no need to worry about shootdowns. Also, I see it is raining outside. Another 15 minutes and off we go.

Margaret: Any regrets leaving this city? No? I know you have regrets for leaving your friends, but for leaving this city?

Me: Although I got new friends here, my biggest mistake is stepping into this city, which looked so promising at start but took a fatal turn.

Kimberley: If some of your favourite cars get added here, then what are you gonna do?

Me: To hell with those vehicles. I am not gonna head down the rabbit hole again. (as all of us enter the Chrysler, with all weapons in our backpacks)

Douglas: Well, how are they going to know that their members are in this castle?

Me: No one will know. But I am expecting these rioters to go rioting near the castle. Another possibility is that Vincent knows we have been hiding in this castle. Either scenario would lead to its doom. And I don't care about the fates of Pholia. Since they are recognised as VVS workhorses, you can expect what the AsphaltLand residents are gonna do.

15 mins later

Me: Okay. I have notified Azelfland and P1 Boy regarding my getaway. I am not sure if they would come... anyway let's get outta here. For real. (as I start the Chrysler and drive out of the castle)

back in the dungeons

Pholia: I gotta hurry. I have never met such @$$#0!€$, and I have never been kidnapped before. (trying to release herself) Not to mention that they took away my phone.... Unfortunately they have made that belt wrap my waist too tightly, and have left me in chains. Not to mention that they doused gasoline on me.... I just hope I can leave.... (pulling her arms against the chains, hoping to get them free)

back in the Chrysler

• Conversations
• Songs played

Me: Okay. Shortest journey would take at least two hours. But with all the rioting, I am expecting a five hour trip. Looks like we will reach NYC by 0230 hours local time. An additional hour is also expected to reach the WTC, if we use the trains.

Margaret: I never expected we would be friends again. Regarding the WTC trip, I would use my Maserati Quattroporte left at the airport. I will prove that cars beat trains.

Me: We would see about that later. Cars can beat trains, but I dare to say that ain't the case in a city where traffic is conjested.

Kimberley: Save the conversations for later. Right now, we gotta look out for trouble. And look out for where our friends could possibly be.

Me: Speaking of home, ever since I entered AsphaltLand, I have returned there periodically, but I barely spent my time there. Never expected to be able to return there permanently, although this is what I hoped for.

Margaret: Well when I was being part of the bullies, we got word that you guys were last there. Luckily none of us spotted you. Nontheless, all of us were using individual cars, so you can use any of their cars.

Kimberley: But my boyfriend said he would be taking the trains. But maybe Lily, Sarah and Naomi would use them, if we brought them to safety.

Margaret: You guys choose the WTC, of all the buildings. Maybe it is due to the main building being called the Freedom Tower? You could have choosen the Liberty Statue instead.

Me: Towers give better panoramic views. Having a 270° view of New York would definitely be the most pleasant thing I could see. Maybe if my friends would be in the picture as well, things get better... and I am not talking of New Jersey there, unless I wanna have a look of Newark Liberty Intl and Teteboro as well.

Kimberley: As long as we could find your friends, I don't mind meeting them at literally ANY building.

Me: One sure thing is that I will not attempt another adventure in the racing scene after I go home.

KITT: KITT here. Say your status?

Me: My 4-man squad is now on the way out of AsphaltLand.

KITT: You may wish to make a 45 minute diversion, though.

Me: Diversion? I hope you mean you found my friends.

KITT: Yes, I have found them. And wait for some time while I plot the route to their current location. But I can tell you that your friends, along with Azelfland's girls, as well as Alicia and Yuni are hidden in the office towers at the mall in the Tokyo track.

Me: Can you tell if everyone is there?

KITT: I can only tell that their last known location is the mall towers. The signals from the SIM cards end there. I will need to examine the area quickly.

Me: The mall just happens to be in a route that branches away from the route I am taking to one of the three airports, so why the rush? Is it Vivendi trying to kill them off?

KITT: No. Not Vivendi. But Mother Nature.

Me: Mother Nature? Are you serious?

KITT: The seismic readings that I obtained from AsphaltLand are increasing dramatically and at a rate much higher than the average. Catastrophe would strike AsphaltLand much sooner than you think, so we need to save them fast. And yes, AsphaltLand, is going down. Not due to Vivendi, not due to the Fiends from Spira and the Fiend World, not due to the rioters, but due to natural causes.

Me: F*** this. Thanks KITT. I will pass the information to my crew.

KITT: Before I go, Azelfland's girls are hidden in the tower that had been burning since the day rioters attacked it. The other was not affected since it does not contain any Vivendi/Gameloft-affilated offices.

Kimberley: Any idea regarding here they hid our friends?

Me: They have hid them in the office towers above the mall on the Tokyo track. We should be able to reach them in 1 hour and 30 minutes if we do not get a single interruption along the way.

Douglas: That is good news for us if we reach them before catastrophe strikes.

Margaret: Just beware that Vivendi goons are still out there to hunt us. Unfortunately, we cannot turn our phones off, or we cannot get any assistance from KITT. Or Mac. Or Azelfland.

Kimberley: Yeah... we better be ready to fight if they try doing jack on us. And loot any gun they have after killing them, our friends may need to use them in case we get knocked out.

Me: I am sure that Azelfland is now running as a decoy to keep these crapheads off our back. But hopefully we don't run into an ambush.

Douglas: But even in an ambush, all it takes is a few Heartseeker charges to eliminate all of them.
