The Calypso Family Apocalypse

Chapter 16

Welcome back. It’s been a long time coming but I’m finally writing again. I have my notes, but even with them I have some trouble remembering what happened. I will do my best but I feel that these next

three chapters will not be as good as before.

In the last chapter, everyone had finished college. Beth was our heir, and she was engaged to Peter.

Peter moved in.He is a Popularity sim, his Stats are.:

5/8/6/3/3His LTW is to be the Mayor.

We have a quick wedding. But decide to wait on babies for now.

Well, What’s in the paper today, Sorka?“Well, it’s really good news today. There’s a job for me, Seth and Beth.”

That’s great, So its Dance, Oceanography and Show Business.

“Wow, I can’t believe we are this lucky!”Well, it does help that Journalism has been lifted.

“I hate this costume.”Well, get promoted and you will never have to wear it again.

“How will this help me get my LTW?”Just stick you head in already.

“Aaaaaaah, Huh, what’s that smell?”

“You know, I think I could go for a grilled cheese sandwich right about now.”

“Hello, I’m home. No more French Fry costume for me.”She was promoted to Cartoon Voice.

And got sent back to work.

“I’ve been promoted to Dance Video Star.”

“I’ve been promoted again, I’m now a Supporting Player. I’m going back to work now.”Again, Great.

Bye.

More wishes. I still have the one you dropped off in college.“Well, you can never have too many wishes.”

“I’m back, I’m now a Broadway Star. They gave me a career reward too.”

Well, here it is, I’ve never really seen a use for it.Truthfully, I’m not one to hide genetics.

Hey, Cassie, did you find a job?“Yeah, the job I wanted showed up today. I have to go now.”

They seem to be finding there jobs quicker this time. They’ve only been home two days so far.

“I’ve been promoted to Getaway Driver.”

“I’m back, I’m an Interpretive Dancer now.”

“Bye, I have to go back to work now.”

Back again so soon.“Well, I’m a Tap Dancer now.”

Early Friday morning Cassie head off to work.Go get us another promotion.

“Will do.”

“I’m a Leading Lady now, but I have several days off now.”How many”

“I don’t go back to work till Monday.”I probably could have fit a baby in, but I decided to wait till she had reached the top of her career.

Bastian does the grunge work around the house, since he hasn’t found his job yet.“It’s ok, I’m sure it will show up soon.”

Hey Cassie, ‘nother promotion in the bag?“Yes, I have been promoted to Bank Robber.”

Did I miss some pictures of you working, Seth?“No, I got my job last Tuesday, but I haven’t been to work till today.”

He had a bunch of days off apparently.“I got promoted today at least, I’m a Underwater Demolitionist now.”

Jessie and Delly are enjoying there retirement.“Our kids have it so easy, when are they going to give us some grandkids?”

Just as soon as Beth lifts Show Business.

Sorka, Is that you?“Yes, it’s me, I’ve been promoted to Ballroom Dancer.”

Back to work already”“Yes, I have to work.”

I wasn’t sure about the last picture until I had seen this one. She’s hard to Identify without her hair.

Back already?“Yes, I’m now a Flamenco Master.”

Good morning Cassie.“It is, I’m a Cat Burglar now. I need to go back to work too.”

Bye Cassie, have a good day at work.

Well, that was quick.“I’m a Counterfeiter now.”When do you work next?

“Not until Monday.”

What’s going on Sorka?“Well, the last time I was at work I got a chance card. I didn’t make such a good choice and lost a skill point.

I can’t remember what skill she lost. I just know that that was the onlybad part about that chance card.

Hey Seth, We haven’t been seeing much of you lately.“I know but, that’s ok, I’ve been doing fine on my own.

Just now I’ve been promoted to Marine Biologist.”

Sorka is the first of generation five to lift a career.“I’ve done it, we can dance again.”

“Come on everyone. Follow my lead.”With the Dance Restriction being lifted we can dance again,

as well as meditate and do ti chi again.

The dancing continues on into the night.

Hey, Bastian. Did you finally find the Science job?“Yes, it finally showed up.”

“Well, it’s been fun but I need to find my own place to live.”Bye, Sorka, I’ll miss you.

“Bye, Sorka, come visit us sometime. I’ll miss you.”

Looks like the dance party is still on going.“Yeah, this is fun.”

Hey Seth, did you get promoted.“Yes, I’m a Whale Tracker now.”

Boy I sure hope your next outfit has some shoes or something, that looks really cold.

“It does. I hope my feet warm up soon.”And he’s back to work again.

“Well, I’m back, I’m a Deep Sea Fisherman now.”

I see nothing has changed up here. Well, it’s not like there’s any thing to do anyways.

I took way too many pictures of them dancing.

I guess it was a real celebration.

“Quit taking pictures.”

“I’ll let my one nice point out on you.”

Nice outfit.“Thanks.”

Well, good luck.

I guess all that dancing finally wore them out.

Good luck Bastian, Have a good time.“Thanks, I’ll do my best.”

He’s finally off to his first day of work.

“You’d better promote me today. Or I will get me some real guns.”

“I’ve been promoted to Protector of Whales, and I have to return to work.”

Good luck, Seth“Thanks, I’ll be bringing home my last promotion, just you watch.”

Good luck, Beth, How many promotions do you have left?“Just two, I think.”

Hey, Seth, did you get your promotion? “Yeah, I’ve just lifted the Oceanography restrictions. We can now have Summer and Fall, and most

importantly we can have smart mild and elixir again.”There’s more to it than that, You can have ponds and fountains and eat fish again. You can now have

fish tanks as well. I will have to refresh my memory to see if any on the thinks I’ve listed are still restricted by any other jobs.

Celebrates.I did some checking, they can’t have ponds yet. They’re still restricted by Natural Science.

Jealous God Handicap has been lifted.Now we can place Jumbok.

You did a good job.“Thanks.”

Have a good life, be happy.

Bye, Seth

Hey Cassie, did you get promoted.“Yeah, I’m a Smuggler now. Is Seth leaving?”

Yes, he’s lifted the Oceanography restriction already.“I can’t believe it, my younger siblings have finished before me.”

“I’m a Blockbuster Director now. I only have one more level to go.”

“Just one more day, Peter, then we can start our family.”“I can’t wait.”

Bastian has a sweet ride, I’m sure he’ll bring home another promotion today.

Oh, I guess he’s sharing with Beth. I wonder whose ride it really is.I guess it doesn’t matter. Good luck you two.

“Thanks.”

Well?“I’ve done it. I’ve lifted the Show Business Restrictions. We can now use the mirror to change our hair

and makeup. We can have outing and dates.”That’s wonderful. Bastian what about you?

“I’m an Inventor now.”

“That’s so much better.”Yes, it is, I love being able to make them look different now.

“This isn’t me. I need a better hairdo.”I need to find something better for her, but this will do for now.

“Oh, wow, I look ever more like my beloved roasty toasty cheesey goodness.”Oh bother.

Wow, you look really good Jessi.“I like it.”

Delly didn’t change much.“I have a beard now. I look hot.”

He does too.

I gave Bastian some facial hair and lightened his hair some, but I liked him the way he was.

“Peter, it’s time.”“Really, you mean it?”

“Yes. I do.”“Yay, time to play hide the cheese.”

“Cheese?”Yay, Cheese!”

“No, Yay Baby.”“Yay Cheesey Baby?”

“Whatever.”

See, I told you he’s hot.“Hands off, he’s mine.”

“You don’t have to worry, dear.”Awww, they’re cute together. I’ll be sad when they go.

Well, time to see some more of this. Ick.

Bastian’s off to work again, Good luck..“Thanks.”

Ick, it looks like she got vomit on her dress.

How’d you do?“I did well, I’m a Scholar now.”

Baby bump number one.

Please don’t get a chance card, Last time someone was nearly at the top she got a chance card and got fired.

“I’ll try, but I can’t guarantee anything.”

Good luck, Bastian.“Thanks”

“I did it, I didn’t even get a chance card. Now we can buy nicer stuff instead of the crap we have now.”

I packed all the old furniture into Cassie’s inventory and let her take it with her.

“Bye, everyone.”The house is beginning to feel empty now.

Well, Bastian. You’re the only one left.“I started later then everyone else, But I’m still doing really well.

I’m a Top Secret Researcher now.”

Beth decides she doesn’t want to quit yet and since no one needs the car I let her take it.She will have to quit eventually because I want to take them on vacation when Science is lifted.

“I’m home, someone hug me.”You don’t have any kids yet. But you will soon. Now get to bed you’re tired.

“Ok.”

“I’m trying to sleep, baby. Stop kicking me.”Well, bump two is out of the way.

“I don’t feel anything, are you sure it will kick me.”“Well, it kicked me last night.”

Bring me another promotion, Bastian.“I’ll try.”

“I’m a Theorist now. I have three days off now.

“Oh, I feel funny.”

“Owwwwww, it hurts.”

“Awww, he looks like his daddy.”

“Let’s call him Matthew.”“I like that, Matthew it is.”

“Where’s my grandbaby, Let me see.”

“Awww aren’t you just the cutest.”

Little Matthew has his Daddy’s hair and I’m not sure, but I think he has his mothers eyes.

“What’s this I hear about a vacation?”“Well, I was thinking that when Bastian lifted science then we could all take a trip to Twikki village.:

“Really, that sounds like fun.”We’d have to do it on a Tuesday after Matthew grew up to a child.”

“Time to get bigger, Mattie.”

“I’ll do this for you now, but you’ll have to help me next time.”

I hope to see some ears.

Pink Tux! Haha

Ears, I see ears! Yay. Matthew Stats:

5/9/6/3/3Not bad. I could live with that.

Training takes very little time now that we can use smart milk again.

“Me out. Hehe”

“Mama.”Aww, good job Mattie.”

“Mama.”“What baby.”

“Tickle, tickle tickle.”

I see we had time to change his hair. He is adorable.

I believe that the only thing left is the nursery rhyme.

Well, I guess I was wrong.“Come to Mommy, Mattie.”

“I wobbly Mommy.”“You can do it.”

“I did it, Mommy.”

“You’re such a big boy now, Mattie.”“I wuv you, Mommy.”“I love you too, baby.”

I wonder where daddy is during all this.Probably making and eating grilled cheese.

Monday morning Bastian leaves for his last day of work. I hope.Good luck, Bastian.

“Thanks”

“Hot Mommy, No bath!”“It’s Ok, Mattie. It’s not too hot.”

“Cheebi tumbi luma luma luma,”

Home already?“I did it, I’ve lifted the Science restrictions, Now we can have lights and electronic and spray roaches.

And we can go on vacation, because the airplanes are working again.”They can only go to Twikki and I think the Mountians, I’ll have to check.

You’re not staying to go on vacation with us?“No, I want to start my own life.”

Bye Bastian, I’ll play you later.

“I can’t wait till we get to go on vacation. Where do you think we’ll go?”“I don’t know, but I think I’d like to see the beach before I pass on.”

“We go beach bunny.”

“Arrg, it’s brand new, it shouldn’t break so soon.”He looks evil when he’s angry.

“This show sucks, I’m much better then they are, I never burn my grilled cheese.”

“I’m beating you.”“No your not.’

“Hello, Yes I’d like to quit my job.”…

“I’m going on vacation.”

“Well, Mattie, tonight’s the night, You grow up quick and then we’ll go.”“Go beach?”

“Yup, we’re going to the beach.”

“Btbtbtbt”

“Tickles”

He’s adorable, But no time, time to go.

“I have to wish quick, We’re going to the beach,”“Well, then here’s your wish, it’s what all your family wishes.”

“Ok, thanks.”I had him wish for Peace of Mind.

“Bye, everyone, See you in Twikki Village.”And I’ll see you in the next chapter.
