Burning in my throat traveled down the length of my esophagus and into my stomach. I was only vaguely aware when we arrived in Cape Coral. I knew it had over four-hundred miles of canals and waterways. The sun had set, so I immerged from the cover, and Jade helped my cramped body into the passenger side back seat. The sight was more beautiful – even in the dark – than I’d ever imagined.

Imagination was all I had before then to try to place myself in the exotic, but still American, location.

“There are literally douche canoes being rowed up and down the waterways!” I exclaimed in amazement, and Jamie cracked up.

“Of all the opening lines to describe Cape Coral, ‘douche canoes’ was nowhere on the list in my mind.” Jamie exclaimed, and I felt scandalized and slumped back into my seat. Misery soon took me back under, and my sanity dangled by threads, frayed threads at that point.

“It does look like Venice a bit, without the grand Italian architecture. Jade observed aloud.

“Yeah, instead it’s the fake-looking American-Spanish ranchero style design. I like that look more in South American, where it’s not fake.” Jamie murmured.

“It’s hard to argue that Latinx and American styles are not forever fused, because the two have merged forever into one community – even if the bigots on the right side pretend this isn’t the case.” Jade replied.

The watery roads were filled with boating travelers. There were more speed boats, and even racing jet skis roared past the narrow roads.

“Well, no douche canoes thus far, but plenty of watery wankers on jet skis.” Jamie observed aloud.

“Don’t encourage him so much.” Jade whined to me. Let me tell you, it was weird hearing a whine come out of the mouth of Xena – or there abouts.

“He’s your brother, you should be encouraging his imagination.” I murmured hoarsely.

“He gets everything from me, including encouragement. By making sure no one with the will to kill him survives to do so. I am encouraging my brother.” Jade explained in a serious tone and expression.

“That’s my fraternal twin sister! Always showing how much, she loves me by dropping dead things at my bedroom door.” Jamie chirped.

“Suddenly, your job as an ME makes all sorts of sense to me.” Hailey said, and Jade huffed, but she didn’t make any protest.

“Where exactly in this bastardized version of Venice is that family home of yours?” Jamie inquired.

“I donno, just follow the douche canoes and you can’t go wrong. The richer the area looks, the more likely there is to be Takada House.”

“Can we google douche canoes and Japanese-American conglomerate owners?” Hailey asked and she sounded morosely curious and began to type in her phone.

“Huh, never would’ve imagined so many fucking search results would come up.” She murmured.

“Yeah, I could’ve saved you the two seconds. There’s all sorts of Japanese-owned conglomerates which have purchased controlling interests around the US. You see, the American strategy was to drop bombs. The Japanese were cleverer; we – they –
