Still In TOwn Meeting...
The Lights dim, and names of various towns flash across the screen.
"What do all these small, run-of-the-mill towns have in common?" Says the narrator's voice, "Success. Better schools, parks, hospitals, a better way of living. And why you may ask?"
On the screen a large shopping complex appears full of happy shoppers hurrying into and out of the store.
"STARS-MART! Your one-stop shopping HEAVEN!" the narrator continues.
The screen goes blank, the room still dark. A spotlight appears on Frosty-Luke, who is now behind the podium.
"Hello, fine people of stars hollow! I'm here to improve your way of living. My name is Luke Daynes" Says frosted luke.
Luke and Loralai look puzzled and very confused, and Luke looks a litle angry.
"The pods have opened. Watch to see if he blinks at all." Loralai says.
"What are the odds of that?" Sookie says.
Frosty-Luke charmingly smiles as he clicks the projector off. Everything about him it just a little too... perfect. Scary even. He says,
"Everyone will benefit!"
"But don't you guys normally build those ridiculous mega-stores on wetlands? Or natural areas on some corner of town? Do you plan on filling our ONLY LAKE to build this store?" Luke says, getting angrier as he speaks.
"No way man. We're a cleaner, more environmentally friendly development. All of this town's natural areas will be safe, I promise" Says frosty-luke, "Due to this towns road constraints for the incoming truck deliveries, there is only one location suitable for the store."
A slide of the town flashes onto the screen. Everyone looks mortified.
AN: wow. what a cliff-hanger. and there is so much more to come. I just hope people actually read this. the middle will really begin to heat up.
