Chapter 6 By Berg!
Freddy was exhausted. He had offered to take Daphne across the lake. By the time they got to the pier to hire a boat, there was only a rowboat left and Freddy was too nice to go back on his word. On the southern bank of Toluca Lake, Freddy flopped out of the boat and onto the grass.
"Whew. I'm exhausted."
"Oh no you don't, Freddy!" exclaimed Daphne, "You promised to show me around. So…" Daphne lifted up Freddy to the best of her ability, "Get out your map and start showing!"
"Fine…"
Freddy got up, stretched, and motioned to a sign.
"Apparently, we're in Rosewater Park."
Ding ding!
A noise cut through the silence.
"What's that?"
From the fog came a Hotdog cart, operated by a man in a large, Pyramid Shaped Helmet.
"Hey, Hotdogs. Lets get some," proclaimed Freddy as he rushed forward. "We'll take two, thanks."
"Zyxhnashgvat", the man in the Pyramid Helmet said.
"See you!" said Freddy as he paid, then walking off with Daphne their hotdogs.
"Ghztabnfua!" proclaimed the man.
"Oh, keep the change."
"Ytzna!"
As the cart retracted into the fog, Daphne looked at Freddy and said "What a nice man."
James sat in the hotel, thinking. He didn't really want to work there. He and his ex-wife had stayed at this very hotel just a few days before she was hospitalised. They had married at 18, and she died when James was twenty. Now James was in his final year of University, working in a holiday break. He kept thinking about this dream he was having. In the dream, which was more like a nightmare, he smothered his wife to death. He shrugged it off as feeling guilty over Mary's death.
Meanwhile, a car was speeding down Sagan Street. Behind the wheel sat a woman, blonde and wearing a pullover. She sat there, speaking.
"Looked dead, didn't I? Well I wasn't, but it wasn't for lack for trying, I can tell you that. Actually James' last pillow put me in a coma. A coma I was to lie in for two years. But now, I have one target, one person I have to kill. The one I'm driving to right now. The only one left. And when I arrive at my destination... I'm gonna Kill James."
