I do not own Megamind, it is owned by Dreamworks. Please R & R!
Later that day...
Roxanne finally slumped down into her office chair, exhausted by the days events. Looking down she realized, with some surprise, that she was still tightly gripping Megamind's bobble-head. She looked at the offending item and placed it on her desk in front of her. She flicked the head once with her index finger and as she watched that large cranium jiggle around, she couldn't help but smile. It really was too cute. It had a cape with a pointy collar and everything, and there were no chains on this little thing, it just had spikes. Roxanne rather preferred the spikes, they were much more flattering. What am I saying? I shouldn't prefer anything. Roxanne hit the little big head, as it were, with her finger one more time and had to stifle a giggle. She had never really realized how fun these things could be. They just always seemed really tacky to me.
Just then she heard a knock at her door. "Come in." Upon seeing her boss walk in, Roxanne immediately sat a little straighter in her seat and tried to appear as busy as possible.
"Yes Mr. Jameson, what can I do for you?"
"Oh Hal just told me you had gotten back from your latest kidnapping. Wanted to check and see what our next big story might be."
"Sorry boss, but I don't have much of a scoop for you today. He didn't even try to challenge Metro Man, just kidnapped me and let me go."
"Just let you go? Jeez I hope this guy isn't going completely soft on us. He may be a menace to the city, but the people just eat this stuff up. Everybody loves to hate a good villain and he fits the bill perfectly."
Yeah he does. A little too perfectly. Roxanne thought to herself.
"Hey, what's that on your desk?" Roxanne looked with embarrassment at her boss's finger pointing at the bobble-head.
"Actually this is a gift from Megamind. He gave it to me today for filling out my 'Frequent Kidnapping Card.'"
"Really? That's nuts. Hah! Hah! Look at this thing! Make it ten times bigger and we'd have a dead ringer for the real thing! Man that guy's crazy," her boss said as he carelessly tossed the bobble-head into the trash.
Roxanne swallowed around a sudden lump in her throat. "Yeah, but you know Megamind."
Her boss just smiled and winked at her. "Nope, wish I did though, he makes out to be one interesting character. But I think I'll just leave knowing Megamind up to the expert eh? What do you say Roxy?"
"Sure thing boss." Except I'm not even sure if I know Megamind.
"Great! Exactly what I like to hear. Keep up the good work Roxy."
"Will do." Roxanne let out a deep sigh after the door finally closed. She peered over at her trashcan. I should just leave it in there. She could see the little head, with its two little green eyes starring right back at her. His face looks so innocent painted on that thing. But she knew that it was anything but. I can't allow myself to get confused. Minion may have told me a nice sob story, but it's a person's actions that truly tell you who they are and Megamind's tell me all I need to know.
I should just leave it in there. Forget about it. I will.
