Urban Legends: Fairytale Style-Chapter 12

So, after hours, days, and weeks of searching the internet trying to find a scary urban legend for the Blue Fairy, I found that none of them were appropriate for the good nun. So then I thought: Hey, instead of doing a horror legend, why not, just this once, do one that makes people laugh?

And so, for one time only, you are going to get a FUNNY urban legend. However, just because it's not a horror, doesn't mean that things are going to end well...

Introducing...The Blind Man

It was a boiling hot day in Storybrooke, and at the nun's convent Mother Superior and her nuns were out in the garden harvesting it's fruits and vegetables. Several women were already panting, futilely wiping sweat off their foreheads while trying not to pass out, the large pitcher of water on the garden wall already half empty.

Mother Superior was growing exhausted herself. Her thick, cotton dress felt like a second skin, and the basket she was filling with tomato's was threatening to drag her down to the ground. In the end, she couldn't take it anymore.

"Astrid" she said to the young novice, who's face was bright red from the heat as she pulled carrots out of the ground "I'm just gonna take these inside" Mother Superior told her, lifting the tomato's. Astrid just nodded, not really taking in what she said. The head nun shrugged, and walked back into the convent.

Almost as soon as the back door had closed behind her, Mother Superior put down the basket and undid the two top buttons of her dress and rolled up her sleeves, sighing contently when those actions alone allowed her skin to breathe a little easier. After a few moments of leaning against the wooden door, she picked up the basket of tomato's and walked them into the kitchen.

After she put the tomato's in the refrigerator-lingering within the cold confines perhaps a little longer than necessary-she reluctantly started to make her way back to the heated garden, and on her way, she passed the front door of the convent. It was there that she noticed the air conditioner that was situated next to it.

Mother Superior stopped, and stared at the device, an unbecoming idea forming in her mind. Due to expenses being tight (no thanks to Mr Gold) the use of electrical appliances in the convent had been severely restricted, and luxuries such as manufactured cold air had been scrapped.

But...it was so hot, and she was practically melting in this heat!

And no-one needed to know...

Before she could change her mind, Mother Superior darted forward, switched on the air conditioner and turned the dial to it's highest setting. As the cool air washed over her, she leaned her head back and sighed, the sweat on her forehead and exposed part of her neck being swept into her hair by the wind.

But, while the coldness was most definitely gratifying on her face, neck, and arms, it wasn't enough. The dress still covered most of her body, and it was too thick to let any cold air in.

Another idea came into Mother Superior's head, and idea so terrible and scandalous that she actually gasped in self-shame. How could she even consider doing that?!

Then again, a darker, usually suppressed part of the nun's mind hissed, there was no-one around, and there were no nearby windows for anyone to see her, and it was so very, very hot...

Mother Superior bit her lip, caught in a dilemma.

But, eventually, the heat got the better of her. Looking behind her to make sure that no-one would walk in on her anytime soon, the good nun pulled off her dress, shoes, socks, underwear, and stood completely bare in front of the air conditioner, letting out another contented sigh as she felt the heat on her skin finally start to fade.

Knock knock!

Mother Superior gasped highly. Someone was knocking at the door of the convent! Rapidly, she switched off the air conditioner and moved towards her discarded dress.

"Who is it?" she called to the door.

"Blind man" was the gruff reply.

Mother Superior paused. A blind man?, she thought, considering. If the man was blind, then he obviously wouldn't be able to see her, and she really didn't want to put that sweltering dress back on...

So, abandoning the garment, she threw open the convent door.

The second he saw her, the blind man's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates. His black bearded jaw flopped open, and, shakily, he held up two window guards in each hand.

"Uh, h-hi Mother Superior" he stammered, his eyes riveted to an area south of her face "I-I'm Leroy. Someone called about putting up some blinds?"

Say what you like! I don't care, I thought it was funny and I hope you did too. This is probably gonna be the only funny legend I do, but maybe if I get stuck for idea's in the future I might resort to it again.

Usual drill, any legends you wanna see (scary ones) PM me. Until then, REVIEW!
