Chapter Two:
It seemed like they rode in the car for hours watching the palm trees and passing cars go by. Soon they saw an exit to The Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, MGM Studios, and Downtown Disney. "We have to be getting close," Magenta whispered. The driver nearly slammed on his brakes. "What did I tell you about not talking!" Magenta quickly shut her mouth and starred at the floor. Riff pulled Magenta a bit closer to him as they headed closer to their destination. They passed countless tourist shops that were decorated with gaudy billboards advertising beach towels, post cards and sun glasses. Located randomly between all the shops were all you can eat buffets and mini golf places that would no doubt be filled with families as soon as the parks closed for the night.
"All you can eat buffets," the driver said to himself. "Disgusting." Finally, after ten more minutes of silence, the car came to a stop. The back door opened, and the driver pulled the two of them out of the car. The door was slammed shut, the man got back into the car, and then he sped away, leaving Riff shaking his head and Magenta pressing on her wrist, which had been scraped thanks to the fall out of the car. "Well, now we're on our own," he said. "Where are we, anyway?" Magenta looked around and said, "I think we're in Orlando." A passerby laughed. "Of course you're in Orlando. My, you have accents that I've never heard before. Where are you from?" Magenta quickly replied, "Uh, Europe. Yes, that's where we're from," and laughed nervously. "Yes," Riff said. "And...now we must be going. But before we do...Might you know Janet Weiss-Majors?" "Married to Brad?" she said. "Of course I know her. The darling's at Disney for the day. So if you need to find her, I'd imagine she's there right now." Riff smiled. "Thank you. And...goodbye." He and Magenta strode down the street, suitcase in hand.
"Where are we going?" Magenta asked Riff Raff who was walking a good few paces ahead and kept making sharp turns at every corner. "Emerald Isle Estates" he muttered, glancing at the map that had been left with them. "Supposidly we are to meet someone there who will give us our job information and wherever we are supposed to be staying." After about five more minutes of walking in the hot Flordia sun they came to the enterance. They stood infront of the dolphin fountain for a few moments trying to cool down before they met up with whoever would help them out. They began walking again, taking a left down a path till they got to a gate. Riff glanced at his paper and pressed 8527 into the keypad and waited for the gate to open. Once the gate opened they walked through and headed towards the left once again. They passed six brightly painted condominiums before they arrived at 442. They had no sooner stepped up onto the sidewalk when the door opened and another man in a black suit with a lightning bolt pin appeared in the door.
"Riff and Magenta, I presume?" the man said. "You may call me Lionel. Come in here, and I will tell you precisely what you are to do." The two walked into the darkly lit room and sat down at the chairs Lionel pointed to. "You are to find Janet Weiss-Majors," he said. "But you already knew that. A woman told you that she is in the amusement park. This is true. She is there without her husband." Magenta spoke up cautiously. "What are we to do?" "You are to disguise yourselves, as she will probably remember you. You, Magenta, are to call yourself Angela, and Riff Raff, you are to call yourself David. Both of you can imitate a British accent well, so you are to speak with a British accent instead of your Transylvanian one. Then, you are to capture Janet. With whatever means necessary, within your given time limit, you are to get her back to our American headquarters in Palm Beach. You must do this, and she must be brought back alive and well." Riff said, "Where are we to stay while we go on this mission?" Lionel opened a folder on the desk in front of him. "Here. The Grand Floridian, which is one of the Disney resorts. You are registered as Angela and David Covington. Your keys and everything else you will need are located in this folder. You will find means of identification along with credit cards for the cost of your stay in here. Before you think of using these things to your advantage, I should tell you that all use of everything in this folder will be monitored. The hotel is located three miles from here. You will check in at 1:30 this afternoon, and immediately start your search. To ensure that you will be working and not lounging about there is no television service, no room service, no luxeries. You will be given more information at the desk. Good day."
With that he led them outside where there was a taxi waiting for them. As they climbed in the back they heard Lional giving the driver specific instructions to take them to the hotel with no stops along the way. Lional handed the driver money and walked back inside. Magenta leaned her head against the window and closed her eyes. It had been an eventful past few days and she felt like she was in a whirlwind. She had no desire to be on Earth again. She hated everything about it. The weather that frizzed her hair, the arrogant people, the culture...everything. Before she knew it they had arrived at the hotel. Riff opened the door, got out and offered his hand to Magenta. She took it and stepped out of the taxi, the hotel loomed over them, almost mocking them with its white siding, red tile roof and spires. It was a dream vacation to most humans to but it reminded Riff Raff and Magenta all too well of the castle they had served Frank in.
