Chapter 4 - Nothlit


"Go away, we're closed," Nothlit said as he answered the phone.

"That's not very nice!" pouted Ann on the other end.

"Oh, are you the one who wanted to beat tea?"

"Um, no... You must have the wrong number." Ann looked around, confused. Little did she know Nothlit's Jedi mind tricks were already having an effect on her.

"Oh, so sorry," Nothlit apologized. "If you'll just come over here, I can grovel at your feet!"

"Um, okay!" Ann replied.

Nothlit quickly hung up the phone, turned, and grinned maliciously to his buddies.

Unfortunately, they were all passed out on the floor, copies of Memoirs of a Geisha piled about them.

Nothlit ran and got some water. After splashing enough all over the drunken boardies to wake them up, he explained what had happened.

"...so in a nutshell, Darth is Luke's father, and Ann and her evil cohorts are coming over here to involve us in their plot to conquer the world. They don't realize I've been playing Jedi mind tricks on them, and I know their whole scheme!"

Rosey fell over, hiccupping a lot. Tyrael was transfixed with the "Pat the Bunny" display. Josh had been eaten by the ugly Fyodor Dostoyevsky display. Or something.

Nothlit sighed...this was going to take some major planning, and he couldn't depend on these imbeciles at the moment. Hiding the fact that he was really eviller than even Ann and her cohorts was going to be tough, and he needed backup.

But who could possibly help?

That was when the phone rang again.
