I have said it once and I probably say it a hundred times more, I do not own RHPS, never have, probably never will, but on to happier stories.
Btw! 'this' is Vendetta's thoughts.
Vendetta followed Riff into the entry hall, and after half a second yanked him back through the door way out of sight of the humans in the hall.
"Are those?!" she asked, "uh huh" Riff confirmed, "And we have!" Vendetta gestured dramatically at the crowd of aliens partying in the next room. "Yep" the handyman deadpanned, "But we've got to…" Vendetta began. "Miss, there's no time!" Riff Raff insisted.
Vendetta fanned herself, "Okay, no need to panic, I can handle this. Go inform my father of what they want," Riff began to limp off, "Wait" she quickly grabbed him, "What exactly do they want?"
"Simply to use the telephone." Riff limped off, "right okay, okay, you can do this." She assured herself, before entering the welcoming hall, head held high. There were two humans, one male one female, and both soaking wet.
"Welcome" she greeted, "welcome to our home. I'm sorry to say you have come at an unfortunate time, but they say what seems unfortunate is offer a blessing in disguise" she tried to give an air of dignity and grace, but it was difficult when one if only fifteen years old and confronted with two adult strangers.
"Hi, I'm brad Majors and this is my fiancée Janet Weiss, is your Husband home?" the male asked, Vendetta was caught between flattery and slight agitation, on the one hand, apparently she looked old enough to be married, but on the other, she didn't understand why they always ask for the "man of the house".
"My father" she made sure to draw out the word, "is preoccupied, however he has been informed of your request and will be with you presently." She assured him.
"Well Brad Darling why don't we just as her?" the woman insisted, "Excuse me miss, Does this castle have a phone we might use? You see we broke down a few miles back and…" Riff raff entered the room cutting her off.
"Your father has been told Ma'am" he grumbled, making sure to use her title in front of company. "Thank you Riff Raff, could you please bring me a few towels for our guests?"
Riffraff nodded. Vendetta turned back to the humans, "as I said before you have come in the middle of one of my father's affairs. If you'll follow me please." She started to turn. "Oh Lucky him." Riff Raff returned with two towels. "Thank you Riffraff" Vendetta handed the towels to Brad and Janet.
"You're lucky, she's lucky, I'm lucky, we're all Lucky!" Magenta slid down the banister, the clock rang through the hall, and the band struck up a lively tune.
"It's astounding" Riffraff started, Vendetta set her head on her hand, the time warp was the national song of their planet, but after about fifteen years of it, the song had begun to wear thin in its appeal.
"Time is fleeting, Madness takes it's toll, but listen closely" Magenta climbed off the banister, "Not for very much longer"
After that line Vendetta turned to Brad and Janet, "I will be right back, Just, stay." She said, "Here" She darted up the stair case quickly, opening and closing doors in an attempt for locate her father. She final found him in his Lab fiddling with last minute details, "Dad!" she snapped.
"Your party is waiting, and we have a few uninvited guests."
"Yes, yes, just a moment dear." He waved her off, He readjusted his corset, "Well..." he posed, "What do you think?"
"Fabulous" she replied off handedly, "Now we have to go." Frank sighed, "Alright, alright, alright, you sound just like your mother" He snatched his black and silver cape and entered the elevator as Vendetta Rushed back down the steps.
"Brad please, let's get out of here" Janet pleaded, "For God's sake get a grip on yourself Janet." Brad scolded her. "But it seems so unhealthy here"
"rude" Vendetta thought, "It's just a party Janet" Brad assured her, "well I want to go." Janet whines. Vendetta wasn't too fond of this female human. 'Jesus lady, calm down.' She thought.
People began to get off the floor and Vendetta approached Magenta and Riff Raff, "Alright what are we going to do about Hansel and Gretel over there?"
"Well we can't go anywhere until I get to a phone." Brad reasoned, "Well then ask the butler or that girl from before." Janet implored him. "Just a moment Janet we don't want to interfere with their celebration"
'At least he's polite' Vendetta shrugged. "This isn't the junior chamber of commerce Brad!" Janet yelled. "They're probably foreigners with ways different from our own, they made do some more…Folk dancing."
'Well you're half right' Vendetta giggled mentally, "Look I'm cold, I'm wet and I'm just plain scared!" Janet panicked briefly, "I'm telling you there's nothing to worry about!"
The elevator doors opens and Janet screamed bloody murder at the sight of her father who stepped out and threw off the cape. 'Damn I'm not too fond of those pearls with that corset either, but it's nothing to scream about'
