Yerk, at the same time, is confronting Yo and trying to kill Visionary. Rabito has transmuted into an impenetrable thought balloon to protect Cheryl. Cheryl is protecting Visi, forcing rabito to let her husband inside. Yo is playing poker with Yerk, the prize for the winner, the LoR’s life
10 p.m. LoR nursery
Chairs were brought, indirect lights pointing to the round table. The two contenders expressionless. Poker face would be more accurate. The stereotypical cloud of smoke from the cigars hanging heavily over them. Who would have thought, thought-cigars would be that smelly?. “Wait till Lisa discover you have been smoking in the nursery” The dealer complained coughing , his tiny robotics eyes full of tears. Yo had gone as far in her poker gambit as to resemble Sharon Stone in her “Casino” role. She even was muttering the soundtrack of the film, seeing how it seemed to annoy Yerk.. The fact Yo “thought” she was a terrible singer was giving the evilYo an unusual headache
“Shut the f*ck up, Yo!” Yerk complained with “De Niro” voice, discarding his cards once more “You are doing it on purpose!”
“Oopsi, sorry Jerk. Lyrics are being sing on my mind” Yo said, happily grabbing the pot “Perhaps you rather like *the Sting* music?. Tararara rara rara, raraa rarararararaaaaa..”
“Don’t mind him Yo, he is just mad at you cause he’s a looser player. You had won the last two games.” Asil said loyally, showing her tongue at Yerk
“Said the cloned butt… How am I suppose to concentrate with all of you making a mess?. And tell this weenie to stop crying or I will”
“Lets keep one thing straight, Jerk. If anything happens to Lisa’s baby, a hair of his cute tiny head is being falls down, his nappy being wet…well, lets just say…you won’t like me when I’m being angry…” Yo menaced happily.
“For the last time, It is Yerk, YERK!…You, deal again” The evil being said to Fleabot. Even if he tried to no show it, he was impressed with Yo’s sudden toughness. Who would have thought the kitty had claws? “And make my cards good, cause Yo didn’t say anything about hurting bobo-bots*…”
“Gahh!” Visionary exclaimed inside the hopping bunny.
“For heaven sake, use the seatbelt, Visionary!”
“He didn’t think of any for *my* side. Ungrateful rabbit. After all, I was the one who “thought” it!.. And is it me, or is getting oppressive in here?”
“I think rabito won’t keep at it for much longer” Cheryl frowned “This strange guy has been throwing him what it seems like an arsenal. I think the bunny-balloon is getting smaller. Soon we won’t have enough space inside”
“ I will go out then. At least you will have an opportunity. Someone will help us any moment, right? They always do” Visionary said, trying to sound cheerful and failing miserably.
“Didn’t you listen to the priest who married us? For the good and the bad. We are together in this. ..If I stay, you stay”
“Obviously, he wasn’t thinking of being together inside a bunny who was deflecting missiles just by hopping around..”

Two hours later
Lisa and the Dark Night stopped in front of a house in good need of a painting. The sign over the door in italics said: Xander the Improbable, Master of the Mystic Crafts
“We agree that is the better way then?”
“I think it *could* work…always that our assailant is *really* a Yo-being, that is” Lisa answered the Dark Night
“We have discussed it before. *Probably* he is a Yo-being. And *if* he is, that seems like the *only* possible way of dealing with him. And *if* what you told me is true, Chaos energy is for Yo-peoples like kryptonite to Superman**"
“Why are we emphasizing the words like that? And do we really need Xander for it?.It has never proved he being more than a mediocre plumber, has it?..”
“No really. But do you know any other self-proclaimed Master of the Mystic Crafts around? If someone can get us what we need, that is him”
“If only the Sorceress and the LL would have been available…but in these heroic business is the rigor they being “on a mission” when you need them more” Lisa complained, pushing the door of the shop. Looking around, they saw the young magician trying to fix a leak in the kitchen.
“Xander” Dark Night nodded.
“Lisa and DK. Aha!, I knew I would see one of you guys around here very soon” Xander cheerfully greeted.
“Did you have a premonition?” Lisa asked hopefully. Perhaps the strange youngster was really a magician.
“Nah, spiffy forgot to pay for his clock being fixed. Being a Mayor, he wouldn’t like his name being leaked into the press for no paying his bills, right?” Xander shrugged.
“Really? I bet he will need a good solicitor then” Lisa said, brushing her hands together in satisfaction.. For a lawyer, politician scandals were dreams come true. “Anyway, I’m afraid we are here for more urgent business. Say, do you happen to have any spare token full of Chaos energy around?”
To be continued and finished soon
Some notes
[*bobo=silly in Yo-speaking
**Again, in Yo-quest, Lisa and the others went to help Yo-beings in their planet. Lord Chaos and his mistress, Lady Entropy, were causing the death of the pure-thoughts. The LL defeated then with the combined help of the Yo-beings. Being energy, the death of a Yo-beings is been transformed in dark energy or entropy
