Moran waved when he saw some of his friends exiting from the room where they were watching their movie.  They gathered in a group to one side.

"That was quite a funny movie don't you think?" Velma asked Veemon.

"An all you can eat place I bet." Velma said smiling at thinking how much Veemon would eat at such a place.

"We can.  I wonder if they'd let a Digimon, or Shaggy or Scooby into one of those places." Velma said, thinking also partially aloud.  


"What do you folks want to do?" Jason asked looking around at some of his friends.

Well, it never ghurts to ask.. and besides we can afford to pay.." Veemon said.. to be honest Velma was not particularly wealthy, and Veemon was feeling pretty hungry, which meant he would eat a good amont at whatever place they'd stop at...

Tiger walked out of the theather. The movie had been alright, but Tigress had really enjoyed it and had not been afraid to tell him so "That is SO romantic" She had blubbered as Roual and Christine had declared thier love for each other..it had almost made him want to throw up..

Velma went over to where Shaggy and Scooby were, "So what are you guys going to be doing next?" She asked.


Jason and his group were talking about what they wanted to do next.

"The library sounds boring," B.G. whined. "I'd rather go back to the hotel."

"we're on a hunt for information about the Hotel' Dixie replied. "think of it as a treasure hunt.. and we're looking for directions to the treasure.."
_
 So there's money involved?' Both Bulk and Skull lit up at the thought. "normally we don't bother with linraries..
_
 It's usually for geeks' Skull explained
_
But for money.. we'll do it.."Bulk finished..

"Maybe we can find a local historian.  Some things never get into books." Velma said.

"And a librarian may know which branch may be the most likely to have information on the hotel, or which place may if not the library." Sarah said.

"If there's a reward involved, then that's different," B.G. said. "I might be convinced to browse through a bunch of old books in one of the most boring places in the world if the price is right."

"We sure got the morally upright with us this time," Cynder whispered to Spyro.

"Thanks, tell Shaggy we're borrowing his SUV." Deimos (Acheron) said.

The Pelvanida group then entered Shaggy's SUV and started up the engine. Zachary (Ian Holmes) was driving.

After an uneventful drive of two hours, they arrived at Shaggy's house.

"Okay, gang let's start moving the munitions." Rime (Don) said.

The group nodded and started moving out the assorted weaponry. Zachary (Ian Holmes) carried out the 2 cases of. 7.62 X 39 mm hollow points and and Deimos (Acheron) carried out the crate of grenades. They placed everything in the back of the SUV.

Rime (Don) carried out the cases of 00 buck and the shotgun slugs and placed them in the back of the SUV.

"I can't believe we went through about 1000 rounds of 7.62 mm in only a few months." Dr. Zanasiu (Timothy Johnson) said.

Dr. Kerzach (Mark Hathaway) came out of the house with the 500 round can of .357 SIG rounds. That was placed in the passenger side front seat.

"Now the firearms." Zachary (Ian Holmes) said. He went into the house and retrieved 2 gun cases. One held Nick's rifle; the other held Dr. Zanasiu's (Timothy Johnson's) shotgun.

Deimos (Acheron) entered after Zachary (Ian Holmes) and returned carrying 2 more gun cases. One held Zachary's (Ian Holmes's) rifle; the other held Mr. Bigmouth's rifle.

Dr. Zanasiu (Timothy Johnson) and Strut (Altus) entered the house and each returned each bearing the last of the firearms. Strut's (Altus's) 2 cases had his shotgun and Deimos's rifle. Dr. Zanasiu's (Timothy Johnson's) case had Rime's (Don's) rifle.

All the gun cases were placed in the passenger compartment.

"We got space for more?" Deimos (Acheron) asked.

"Yeah." Zachary (Ian Holmes) said.

"Okay, then' we'll bring out the helmets."

Rime (Don) and Deimos (Acheron) entered the house and returned carrying the group's helmets and Nick's armor and helmet. All the armor was placed in passenger compartment.

"We have enough room in the trunk for 2 more cases of ammo and maybe even a grenade launcher and some crates of specialty grenades for the launcher." Dr. Kerzach (Mark Hathaway) said.

"Well, a rocket launcher or recoilless rifle is too dangerous to use indoors and the Armbrust and MATADOR are single use." Deimos (Acheron said). "And that Mikoto character was able to shrug off small arms. So we'll go with grenades."

Zachary (Ian Holmes) sighed. "Briggins is not going to be pleased when you bring in a grenade launcher. Let's just get an M-14 and some M948 rounds. Deimos and Rime, you two are our designated marksmen. You both get to carry the M-14 rifle."

Deimos (Acheron) grinned. "Couldn't we do both? Leave the heavy munitions in the car and bring the small arms. If we get an intruder, we'll use the hollow points and the shotguns, then we'll step up to the M-14 and M948 rounds."

Zachary (Ian Holmes) got inside the car and started the engine. The weight of the weaponry and ammunition slowed it down.

"Where to?" Zachary (Ian Holmes) asked.

Dr. Zanasiu (Timothy Johnson) sighed. "Pete's Munitions."

The rest of the group nodded.

"Pete's Munitions it is." Zachary (Ian Holmes) said, turning out of the driveway and into the road.

"That is a good start, also if there is a folklore section.  There are some folks who write books about places that are supposed to be haunted." Velma said.

"Those are some good places to start." Sarah said nodding and agreeing with both ideas.

After a drive of an hours they arrived at Pete's Munitions.

Strut (Altus) and Deimos (Acheron) entered the warehouse like building.

They waved back at the greeter.

Strut (Altus) got a hand cart and went over to the ammunition area. There he got 1 case of 00 buck (250 shells) and 2 more cases of 7.62 x 39 mm hollow points (1000 rounds) each.

Deimos (Acheron) had gotten another hand cart and was about to ask about the M-14 rifles when Barrett Model 82A1 caught his eye.

"How much for the Barrett 82A1?" he asked.

"That is $8,900 without tax." the clerk replied.

"I'll take it."

The clerk nodded and handed him the case containing the rifle. Deimos (Acheron) then bought an M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle for Rime (Don).

He pushed his cart to the restricted munitions area.

"Sir. This area is restricted to those who bear proper identification." the guard said.

Deimos (Acheron) showed him the Pelvanida ID and was waved through.

Deimos (Acheron) looked at his ID and noticed that the ID had morphed to match his new identity.

There Deimos purchased a Milkor MGL grenade launcher along with 1 crate each of 40 x 46mm HEAT and high explosive grenades.

He finished with a 500 round case of M948 SLAP for Rime's (Don's) rifle and a 500 round case of M903 SLAP for his own rifle.

He met Strut (Altus) at checkout line.

"Acheron, do you know how much that is going to cost?!" Strut (Altus) said as he saw what Deimos (Acheron) had purchased.

"Altus, relax, we have money." Deimos (Acheron) replied.

After several minutes, all their weaponry was rung up.

"That will be $100,000, including tax." the cashier said.

Deimos (Acheron) showed the cashier his Pelvanida ID card.

"Okay with the discount, it will be $75,000."

Deimos (Acheron) and Strut (Altus) wheeled their purchase back to the car.

"What the hell did you guys purchase!?" Dr. Zanasiu (Timothy Johnson) demanded.

"More firepower." Deimos (Acheron) replied. He placed the two new rifles and the grenade launcher inside the roof container.

Strut (Altus) had just finished loading the grenades and ammunition into the trunk.

"We ready?" Zachary (Ian Holmes) asked.

Everyone nodded and got inside the car. It was a tight fit with all the weaponry.

Zachary (Ian Holmes) started the engine and headed back to town, they passed by the ruins of the Insane Cafe.

After a few hours they arrived at the town and met Dixie.

"Thanks for the car Dixie." Zachary (Ian Holmes) replied. "Oh, it's a real tight fit as we stocked up on ammo and weapons."
