Good Goddesses

Ch 5: The Human Hourglass


In a small room, The bar tender Linda was handcuffed and sitting in a chair. Uni and Nepgear were standing across from her. "I told you, I was working the bar when they came in. This girl starts crying like a baby, so I pour her-"

"What do you got against the badge huh? You tell lies about me! You poisoned my partner here!" Uni growled.

"Poison? It was a shot of root beer." Linda responded.

"I'll take care of this Uni." Nepgear gently pushes Uni back and looks at Linda. Nepgear takes a seat and told her to come closer to her. Linda does so and her fake mustache was ripped off of from her face. "Just as I thought!"

Uni then punches Linda in the face. "What kind of a monster wear's a fake mustache huh!?"

"Umm...you girls." Linda said and chuckled, shaking the punch off.

Nepgear and Uni look at one another...they touch each other's fake mustaches. "That's not the point! Back to the storyline!" Nepgear broke the 4th wall.

Uni punches Linda again. "What's wrong with you girls!? It's a costume. My boss makes me wear it for Monday Fun Day at the bar."

"She's stalling." Uni told Nepgear.

"Looks like it's time." Said Nepgear as Uni goes to the door and opens it and Uzume comes in.

"Haven't we already done the whole Good Goddess, Bad Goddess thing?" Linda asked them.

Nepgear chuckles. "We're all Good Goddesses here. Now, this is how it's gonna go down."

"Don't do this at home kids." Uni said to the camera.

"Uzume here, is gonna handcuff herself." Nepgear said and Linda rolled her eyes. Uzume handcuffs herself to the wall. "And then? She's gonna swallow the key." Uni gives Uzume the key and she swallows it.

"And then? In 12 hours, she's gonna poop it out! And then she's gonna rip your limbs off!"

"If I were you? I think about coming clean." Nepgear and Uni leave as Uzume stares at Linda.

12 hours later.

The light was flickering badly and Linda was gone. Uzume was still handcuffed to the wall. Nepgear and Uni come inside. "Where's the suspect!?" Nepgear shouted and throws the chair.

"Her lawyer...showed up. Said we couldn't hold her. That was 11 and a half hours ago!" Uzume said and was still handcuffed to the wall.

"Oof. By the smell of things you should have the key by now." Uni said.

Uzume grabs Uni and pulls her close to herself. "I couldn't do it Uni! I tired! This was a bad idea!" Uzume yelled and lets go of Uni.

"We need more light in here." Uni said and looked at Nepgear.

"Darn lights keep flashing...I told the rookie to fix..." Nepgear eyes went wide as she grabs the hanging light. "Rookie. Flashing. Rookie! The Rookie's the night flasher!" Nepgear shouted.

"Let's roll!" Uni said and runs out of the room with Nepgear, leaving Uzume behind.

"Hey guys!...Neptune doesn't pay me enough to do this crap...Ughhhhh." Uzume groans.
