Chapter 14

Naboo and Bob Fossil were being led to the hut where Dixon Bainbridge was being held. It was a highly guarded hut (three guards. Three!) but Naboo had a feeling he could take them on.

Not that physical force would be necessary. After all Naboo had his trusty 'The Shaman's Guide of Tribal Negotiations and Rescue Missions' pocket book on him. Nothing could go wrong. (Oh Dear… remember sod's law. As soon as anyone says 'Nothing can go wrong' it starts to rain, the house sets on fire, or the dinosaurs escape from their enclosure and start eating everyone, except for the irritating kids, who you actually want to die... sorry ranting again!)

While Naboo's thoughts were full of rescue plans (for both Bainbridge and the engaged Vince Noir), Fossil's were full of seeing his Bainbridge again. In fact he was skipping. And singing softly under his breath.

'I'm going to see ma Bainbridge, ma Bainbridge, ma Bainbridge

I'm going to kiss ma Bainbridge, Ma Bainbridge, ma Bainbridge

And then we'll eat some cakes'

"As you can see, the man you seek is being guarded highly." boomed the Chief. Naboo looked up at him. He was trying to work out whether the guy was taking the piss or not. Apparently not.

"Oh yeah.." ventured Naboo. That was pretty much all you could say.

The guards allowed the Chief , Naboo and Fossil to enter the hut. There they were met by Dixon Bainbridge, who was tied to a stick in the ground.

Dixon Bainbridge did not look happy. This was not a dignified position for a man like him to be in. He was dressed in the same traditional wedding gown as Vince had been man (or woman-who could tell?) handled into some minutes earlier. Apart from that, he was his usual bombastic, self important self.

"Who the hell are you?" asked Bainbridge, directing his question at Naboo.

However before the little shaman could reply, Fossil over come with emotion, fell to his knees and crawled over to Bainbridge, yelling at the top of his lungs.

"OH SWEET, MERCIFUL JOHOZEPHAT, WHAT HAVE YOU DOME TO MY BAINBRIDGE! HE DOESN'T REMEMBER HIS BOOBY BOB- BOB!"

Bainbridge sighed and lifted his eyes to the roof. He was used to Fossil's outbursts.

"Not you, you overgrown ape-child. I meant the gypsy chap!"

Bainbridge would've pointed at Naboo, if his hands weren't behind his back. After all, Bainbridge had pointed at stuff while he was at Oxford. He also won the Lord Kitchener Award for Excellence in the field of Pointing. He'd pointed with the pros.

"I'm Naboo, that's who, and I'm here to rescue you." said Naboo. Naboo was impressed with his four way rhyme. He was like a very slow rapper.

"Ah…. NO not yet." said the Chief, eyeing Naboo, from his great height.

"Why not?" asked Naboo

"First… me and my new bride are to be married!" said the Chief.
