I had tried the preorder thing but it didn't work too well.  I'll be working on the print version later this year, and you can listen to it bit by bit in the podcast.

General update on my writing efforts tomorrow.

Hawkqueen
I agree. Any ideas? 

Inoria
Can you contact the birds? 

Hawkqueen
No, they’re out of my range for some reason. Hmm, no they seemed to be tied up for some reason. 

Doc Shadows comes back into the room. 

DOC SHADOWS
That would be prudent wouldn’t it? I’ve worked with enough animal empaths to know how dangerous letting them run around can be. 

Hawkqueen
It really is you isn’t it? You’re not dead. 

DOC SHADOWS
Not for lack of trying I assure you. 

Inoria
You were supposed to be one of the good guys. 

DOC SHADOWS
I am. After a manner of speaking. 

Inoria
That’s some manner of speaking.

DOC SHADOWS
In this case, the manner of speaking is directly into your mind.  

Inoria
Come again?

Hawkqueen
I remember that. People just kept saying that magic word for days…made him turn into something random every time 

J.R.R. Thorne
The difference between Hopscotch and me, is that I am not some costumed gimp. I am the real deal, and I will be making each and every one of you writhe in agony before I’m done with you. 

Hawkqueen
I fail to see the difference between a costumed moron and a moron who just lives the lifestyle. 

J.R.R. Thorne
The difference is considerable my dear. Considerable. 

GRENADEMAN
AHA! SO YOU REVEAL THE FACT THAT YOU ARE PART OF THE FORCES OF EVIL! WE SHALL DEFEAT YOU! 

J.R.R. Thorne
And how will you do that while you’re tied up? 

GRENADEMAN
I SHALL DEFEAT YOU WITH MY MIGHTY AURA OF GOOD AND PURITY. 

J.R.R. Thorne
I..see…right then.
Thorne leaves.

Inoria
At least he made him stop revealing his plan.

Henchman #1
Don’t bring one!
 
Chainsaw Fred starts to fight the four of them, beating them all until Henchman #1 goes for his gun, and shoots Fred, who goes down.

Henchman #1
Well…what do you know. One that wasn’t bullet proof.
 
Henchman #2
Must have been the sidekick. 

Henchman #3
Can’t be….has a better costume.
 
Henchman #1
Good point.
 
INT. WAREHOUSE WITH DEVICE - DAY

Hawkqueen, Inoria, Frank, and Fred are all chained to a wall. Doc Shadows and J.R.R. Thorne enter. There are gleaming control panels all about. The device they saw before is now in front of them. 

DOC Shadows
Ah, I see you’re awake.  

J.R.R. Thorne
Just in time for me to reveal my evil plan. 

DOC SHADOWS
If you don’t mind, I’ve got things to do. This is nothing I haven’t heard before. 

Inoria
I didn’t think ANYONE revealed their evil plans anymore. Not after Hopscotch made a fool of himself on national television.

Henchman #2
He’s even loud when he screams in pain.
 
Henchman #1
Actually in practice I’ve found that most people are loud when they scream.
 
Henchman #2
You’ve got a legitimate point there, hadn’t thought of that.
 
From a distance, a car drives up with its headlights on. It comes to a stop and CHAINSAW FRED comes out dressed in a hockey mask with bullet proof riot gear type armor and a rather large, nasty looking chainsaw. He starts the chainsaw. 

Henchman #2
ANOTHER one? Sheesh, this must be two for one day. 

Henchman #1 takes out the gun and gets ready to shoot.

Henchman #2
Don’t you EVER get tired of paying for more wasted ammo? 

Henchman #1
Right.

Henchman #1 puts the gun away, Henchmen 1-4 proceed toward Chainsaw Fred while Henchman #5 continues to kick Grenademan.
 
Henchman #2
At least this one had the sense to bring a chainsaw-whoa! 

Henchman #3
Well you know what they say about bringing a knife to a gunfight.
 
Henchman #4
What do they say about bringing a knife to a gunfight?
