CHAPTER THE FOURTEENTH:The advert


"Move your arm to the left a bit, a bit more... There! Now let go!" Flamslinger ordered.
With nothing else to do that day, Flameslinger said that he'd teach Gus archery. Gus released the string and the arrow flew onto the target. It hit the bull (the green circle around the bullseye).
"Nice one! Not many people I teach get a bull on their first go. But I guess I did help you," Flameslinger commented.
"How do you know how to hold it perfectly?" Gus asked.
"Ahh, just practice. That's all you need when you have the basics. Are you alright on your own? I need to talk to Zap."
"Yeah, I'll be fine. See ya!"
Flameslinger walked out of the hallway and through to the dining room.
Gus fired again. Miss. Maybe he wasn't alright on his own...

Meanwhile, Zap and Lucy were having a webcam chat with Dr. Malum. Stealth Elf was with Malum. Malum said that they were heading to Italy next. A skeleton (Chop Chop) was causing a stir there.
"How much room have you got in that house?" Malum asked.
"What? I won't be able to let them stay here! My mu-" Lucy stopped.
She remembered about her mum. 4 o'clock. Almost a full day. She hadn't been answering her mobile. She wondered whether the same thing had happened to her mum as her dad. A car crash...

"Are you ok?" Malum asked.
"Yeah. I'm fine. How much room at your house?"
"5 rooms. About space for 2 in each. I'm sure you could have 1 or 2 at yours."
"Yes. So is Stealth coming over here?" Zap asked.
"Yes, my assistant will bring her," Malum replied. "Oh, and look on TV. Channel 3. Bye!"
'Channel 3?' Lucy thought.

"Oh Mike! I love you so much!" the actor cried.
"Melissa! I've been having the same feeling!" Mike replied.
"Let's get married!"
"Yes!"
The theme song played as the soap ended.

"Why did we have to watch that rubbish? I mean, that wasn't helpful at all!" Lucy complained.
"Wait! Look!" Flameslinger pointed.
The adverts were on.
"Try out the hot new toy: SKYLANDERS! Pick up your figures! Place them on the portal! Play the Game!" The man shouted.
"My name is Zap! Abba Yabba Jabba! Buy me and you get my awesome abillities in game! Abba Yabba Awesome!" An actor cried.
"Hey... I don't sound like that!" Zap exclaimed. "And when was the last time I said that? Come on, Abba Yabba Jabba?"
"If you are awesome enough to get me, you are sure to get the high score! I'm Bash, and I'm exclusive to London, England! Raar!"
"How strange..." Gus said. "How did they know about them?"

Underneath, the words "always in stock at 26 Manchester street, Ealing, London" were written. A strange gap was next to it.
"Say 66895 to manager?" Flameslinger wondered.
"Where does it say that?" Gus asked.
"At the bottom on the right. Here!" He pointed at the gap.
Flameslinger had such good eyesight, he could see the hidden writing on the advert.
"They must have Bash! Someone must be using these adverts to get us together!" Zap exclaimed.
"But I don't see why they had me in it, they don't know where I am! And it was a waste of a bad actor, they could of used him for Eruptor!"
They decided to go to the store.
