Where Did Green Day Go???, chapter 7
"What? No way!" Magenta protested.
"I didn't erase their memories." Plumbob said weakly.
"Even when you did I still remembered it all!" Billie Joe spat. "Every few years or so I'd get another little piece of my memory back. Mike thought Tre and I were crazy."
"I'm so sorry!" Abby said.
"Sorry. Sorry! Eight years and that's all you have to say!" Billie Joe screamed. He pushed all his weight against Plumbob and he didn't expect it. Plumbob landed roughly on the pavement and Billie Joe grabbed Abby. However, just as he did so, a beam of orange energy zoomed past his head and made a huge hole in the wall behind him.
"Freeze!" A chorus of voices said. They all turned round. There were three huge Punishers standing there, all holding ray guns. There blue suits and orange ties clashed horribly, but they probably didn't notice because of their dark sunglasses.
"Oh no." Abby whined.
"These are the guys that are chasing you aren't they." Billie Joe hissed.
"Yes." Plumbob said. "Please help us escape!"
"What? After what you did to me? No way!" He said.
"They'll punish you too. You're involved now." Plumbob said.
"What! I didn't-"
"Quiet!" The Punishers said at once.
"I have an idea." Plumbob said.
"Raise your hands!" The Punishers said. They all did as they were told. Meanwhile, Plumbob was hissing instructions to them all quietly.
"Abby Stone, Magenta Cool, Plumbob 427 and Billie Joe Armstrong, we are arresting you on counts of-"
"NOW!" Plumbob screamed. He shot the three Punishers with darts from his watch while the others ran through the hole in the wall. The Punishers were surprised, but not knocked out. They started shooting as Plumbob jumped through too. They blasted the wall to bits as they ran on down a new street. Billie Joe was leading the way.
"Through here!" He yelled. They went into a shopping mall and out a set of doors at the other end. He kept running through alleyways, over fences and through peoples back yards. Eventually he stopped. They were in an alleyway hiding behind some trash cans. He sat down as he gasped for breath.
"I need to quit smoking." He said. Abby and Magenta sat down next to him.
"Do you see why we didn't have time to erase your memory properly?" Plumbob said. Billie Joe nodded.
"But why did you come here? Where are you from? Why did you have to see me?" Billie Joe asked. It sounded like he had asked himself these questions for years.
"We wanted to find you. We're from the 22nd century." Magenta said.
"In the 22nd century we couldn't find out anything about you. There was nothing in Library files, the internet, TODS, nothing."
"What's TODS?" Billie Joe asked.
"Oh just a database cataloguing every event in human history." Magenta said lightly. "Anyway, I found some CD's of yours in my Great Aunt Ramona's house, and I listened to them and thought you were amazing. Abby loved them too."
"No-one else did." Abby said. Billie Joe looked shocked. "Don't be surprised, hip hop rules the world."
Billie Joe opened his eyes wide. "No fucking way!"
"Yes fucking way. There's a huge statue of Eminem in our town square." Abby shuddered.
"That's why we had to find you. We read your autobiography, and after the year 2005 you just disappear." Magenta said.
"Disappear?" Billie Joe said. "Why?"
"That's what we're here to find out." Abby said.
"We better get moving." Plumbob said. "The Punishers aren't very smart but they'll catch up somehow."
"Where do we go?" Abby said. Billie Joe grinned.
"I have an idea. I'll call Tre, then we'll take a little trip to Mike's house. He cant say we're crazy now!" Billie Joe pulled out his cell phone.
"That's your cell phone!" Abby said. "It's like a brick!"
"We don't have cell phones inn the 22nd century." Magenta added.
"Lucky you." Billie Joe said as he punched in Tré's number. "I fucking hate this thing."
"I didn't erase their memories." Plumbob said weakly.
"Even when you did I still remembered it all!" Billie Joe spat. "Every few years or so I'd get another little piece of my memory back. Mike thought Tre and I were crazy."
