Chapter 4


Riff Raff stared down at the sopping girl slightly amused by the worried expression that played on her face. He soon grew bored at her unresponsiveness though and, unusual to his character, broke the silence.

"Excuse me madam but what is it that you want?" Riff Raff drawled in his bored, monotone voice.

The girl jolted at the sudden noise he had created and screamed, falling to her knees. He watched as she slowly turned her attention towards his person and expected her to look more frightened at his appearance – as most people did – instead she wobbly got to her feet and began to speak.

"I-I'm so sorry sir I didn't mean to act so rudely. Honestly, you aren't scary o-or anything I just frighten easily."

Riff Raff silently mused at the high pitch of her voice. It was not nasally as that of Columbia's nor was it sensual as that of his dear sister's rather it was very feminine and innocent…how odd.

"What do you want?" he asked again, slightly annoyed at having to repeat himself.

"Oh yes, sorry, well you see my car broke down about a mile back and well … I was wondering if I could maybe use your telephone to call for a cab or something along those lines…" she trailed off, looking at the ground as she spoke.

Riff Raff didn't respond right away, rather, he took the gap in conversation to contemplate if Frank-n-Furter would wish for her to enter. He slowly lowered his eyes to her form and began taking in her appearance. She was evidently petite in both stature and waist yet she attempted to mask her figure with baggy, shapeless clothing. Her complexion was smooth and of a pale shade… a shade almost as pale as himself. Her eyes were a startlingly bright blue and were framed with long, thick dark lashes. Her face was on the round side, though not in sense of being overweight, rather it was femininely rounded. Her appearance screamed feminine innocence. Yes, he concluded, his master would most definitely wish to see her…

"Come inside then, I will take you to my master," he said curtly as he moved aside for her to enter.

"Oh thank you so very much sir!" she beamed as she pick up her suitcases and entered the castle.

Riff Raff quickly looked outside to make sure that there was no other wanderer wishing to venture towards the castle and, upon being assured that they were alone, closed the doors with a resounding thud.
