Chapter one: Hyena from Hell!!
This whole thing started two years ago, I truly believe that. None of this would have happened if Rachel hadn't lost a finger at the zoo. See I had just won the lottery and I should have seen this coming because nothing good happens without something bad evening the scales out. It's Karma or some crap. So anyway, here I was, trying to treat my sister and her friends with a trip to the zoo. I turn my back for like, three seconds and Rachel is screaming, turns out she was poking her fingers at a damn hyena and oddly enough it bit one off. Who would have guessed something like that would happen. Not me. So after months spent paying for her doctor bills and apologizing up the hoo-haa I finally get over the trauma. Someone should have warned me not to get too comfortable. Bastards.
So there I was, two years later, driving home from the store when I see this bolt of lightening off in the distance. It was strange considering that the sky was clear. Thinking it was a fluke I go into the house to find the girls (all older but not too much wiser) teasing Rachel. You see, lately she had begun the search for a man as short as her, who is also missing a finger (hello shop teachers!!!), it was her latest obsession. Just as they were predictably getting to the part where they say that they 'told her not to do it!' to which she counters 'no you told me to doooo it!!' there was a knock at the door. He said his name was Frodo, but as far as I was concerned he was trouble. Rachel, in a mad dash to escape the riffing of her by the others, gets the door. Before I can even move from putting the groceries away, the door slams and I hear two sets of feet run up the stairs. So I go to the bottom of the stairs to call up to her room and see what's going on. I don't even get to open my mouth when there's another knock at the door. So being polite, I turn on the light before I open it. I hear a shout of surprise on the other side. So I open the door to find a scraggly yet amazingly handsome man on the other side. After clearing his vision he addresses me. From what I gather, his friend came in here, they're lost and he wants to come in. Not having realized that this would be the part where I should turn him away because he's trouble, I let him in. Did I mention I hadn't dated ever? Soon after getting him a drink of water, There's another knock, this time behind the door there are two people, a tall blonde one and a short red head with a beard. They were friends of the other two. It didn't seem right to break up the set. More glasses of water are followed by more knocks. And before long I have six strange men in my house, two are blonde with pointy ears (weird) and one is missing and another is really short and kinda cranky. Every last one of them is carrying. Damn hyenas. I am so never going to the zoo ever again.
