Winning story for the Psyber-X and Scholar & Scribe Competition is in! (I didn't forget about you lol):
After a 1.5 week vacation away from California, I came back to this story as the longest Choose Your Adventure Psyber-X story. I wanted you to throw a party and tell the story of how you'd do it in Zeelis...let's have a read, shall we?
I'll use the same graphics as the last author used:

It has been 50 years since the battle against the cyberpunks. For the first time in those fifty years, we made the cyberpunks soldiers to retreat for reinforcement. They still had their soldiers patrolling every corner of zeelis , but for the first time they ceased their daily attacks.
This is a great victory and it definitely calls for celebration. I picked up my radio and contacted @dark-rose. She is the only I know who can still host a party since the war.
"Do you really think we can make this work. I mean we should be on guard, this might be a trick by those punks." @dark-rose asked as she got to the queen's bunker. "You host parties all the time, this should be easy for you."
"Queen, I host small parties that don't last past five minutes. You are planning something really big here. To make this work, we would need some magical powers from @the-last-elf.

The elf was seen making a loud entrance into zeelis. Everybody wondered how he managed to to go by unnoticed by the Cyberpunks. "I hear y'all want to host a party, I don't see how I can help with that."
They explained to him that they needed his help to make it a discreet party. They believed that with his magical powers he could somehow make the cybers blind to the party. "In that case we would have to move to @doubleworld that's the best place my magic works." The Elf said.
Under the elf's magical invisibly ark, he transported the people from the west side of zeelis down to the dark side of the city run by doubleworld. The Cybers have never been successful trying to penetrate this part of the city. The stage was set, the word was out, all road led to doubleworld for the greatest party since the war.
There was only one big challenge, doubleworld didn't have enough resources to host that many people. "We need some volunteers to go into the city and gather supplies." Then came @doziekash, a brave and fearless resistance. "I'll do it, my crew and I will get some resources."
- @doubleworld To The multiverse
They made a list of what they will be needing and handed it to doziekash. "Be careful out there, we don't know those punks are planning our there." He Went round gathering his team members.
His team members were full of brave fighters that have killed not less than 200 cybers since the war. His team were people who loved to take the fight to the cyberpunks. He sent for his second in command @merit.ahama

Unfortunately, as good as @merit.ahama had been...he was found shot in an alleyway. I had to take up the list and do it on my own, much like most of my life. If we were to have a party, I'd need to drive into Zeelis on my own. I wasn't about to put anyone else's life in jeopardy for a party. I brought a few NFTs strapped to my leather chaps. Entering the city was easy. It was getting the supplies and leaving that was the hard part.
Once inside, I pulled up my goggles that saw through the purple and green haze, slipped on my mask, and made sure my filter was sealed properly. Immediately, I felt the heat of a laser at my back. I dodged it, barely, but it did singe my jacket. This had better be a good party! Passing a few people drunk on octane in the streets, I made it to Bawb's Booze. I grabbed a !Beer and a few cases of Octane. As I left the storefront, a kid pulled out a gun and pointed it at me. He was only about 5 years old. I tossed him a can of Octane and he didn't know what to do with it. With that distraction, I made it over to the Lari's Pizza joint and bought some !Pizza I had to bolt back, dashing through crowded streets full of debris and scum, slices of !pizza dropping along the way, but when I got back, we had a laser light show and tossed !wine, !pizza, and !beer around to show everyone how much we were !alive and how much fun we could have !lol
