Chapter Four:  Coming Out of the Closet

{Life Law #8: We teach people how to treat us.
Strategy: Own, rather than complain about, how people treat you. Learn to renegotiate your relationships to have what you want.}


In case you just tuned in: earlier tonight a man was arrested outside of the White House.   He was there demonstrating his rights.   He claimed "[he] had none.   I am a vampire," he said, "it is a grievous disability, and I want more consideration for myself and those like me.  We deserve to be treated as humans." a recorded scene played out behind the broadcaster. The man was taken in to custody and is being held with out bail pending charges of: disrupting the peace, unlicensed demonstrating, and waking the President.  The commentator gave a smirk out to the audience.  Since then many others have come forward to support and protest this man's claim. 

Scene cuts to a man that appears in his early thirties Yeah, I'm a vampire.  I was bitten almost sixty years ago, I was in Europe after World War two.   This woman came to me and asked if I would speak to her.  I did, she told me what she was.  I didn't believe her, but we dated for two years and she finally convinced me.   She asked me if I wanted to be like her.  I said 'sure' as a joke you know…

Scene cuts back to commentator Along with Vampires there have also been reports of were-wolves, leopards, rats, and various other forms of Lie-can- trop-pee.

On the couch in front of a TV "That's pronounced Lah-can-TH-ropy! Hello!" Others in the room looked at the speaker weirdly.

Scene on TV shifts to another young man with red hair  "I'm a were-wolf."

A woman's voice from behind the camera asked, "How do you live your life with this disease?"

He shrugged, "I just get fuzzy once a month, no biggie. You should come to Gerard's tonight and see my band."

"You have a band?"

"Dingo's Ate My Baby."

Couch "OZ?!?!"  The dark haired man exclaimed.  

"You know him?"  An older man asked.

 The dark haired one nodded,  "I never…"

"Never knew he was a Lan… Lysin… Were-wolf?"

"Oh I knew that, I never thought he'd be so…public about it."

A large black man raised an eyebrow, "Captain Harris, are you to say you knew these creatures existed on your world?"

"Ah, yep." Harris answered.

A young blond with curly hair snickered.
