\chapter{The Horrid in the Arcade}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bavarius woke with a startle. He had a hangover from the 3 Coors
|
|
beers he drank last night to help him relax and his head was
|
|
horrific with vomit and pain. Suddenly he remembered what happened
|
|
yesterday. It was his worse case yet ever.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It all started yesterday when he got a telephone call from the
|
|
Chief. ``Bavarius I need you to go down to the arcade to investigate
|
|
a noise complaint'' he said. ``OK'' said Bavarius.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
His head and heart pounding like a drill, Bavarius loaded a clip
|
|
into his Barretta and fingered the safety. Nervously he went to his
|
|
Chevy Camero and hit the ignition. He punched the gas then realized
|
|
his car needed more gas. ``That's fine'' he thought. I have enough
|
|
gas to make it to the arcade.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
He peeled out of his driveway and sped down the street doing 55
|
|
miles per hour. Suddenly he arrived at the arcade. He opened the
|
|
door and went inside expecting what he did not find. Instead he
|
|
found what he did not expect to find. What he found was a horrific
|
|
site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Blood and vomit and tears streaked the walls and the Space
|
|
Invaders. There were kids bodies laying everywhere, torn apart and
|
|
still bleeding blood. ``Who could do this.'' thought Bavarius. ``I am
|
|
going to catch who did this and find out how he could do this.'' So
|
|
he looked around.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Suddenly he heard a movement. It sounded like wet vomit scraping on
|
|
sand paper. In a flash he drew his Baratta and loaded a clip. Then
|
|
he spun around to face the noise. ``Whoever you are, I have a Bereta
|
|
and know how to use it, scum.'' he said.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Suddenly he saw movement. A man or what was once a man or woman
|
|
came dashing out from behind Missile Command. {\sc Out\ldots{} Of\ldots{}
|
|
Credits\ldots{}!} it screeched in a slow southern drawl. ``No monster,
|
|
you're out of life'' said Bavarius as he squeezed the trigger
|
|
rapidly and deliberately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One shot to the head, two in each hand, and one in the heart for
|
|
good measure. Also he shot the thing in the legs and nose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The woman howled and fell back then started licking up blood and
|
|
vomit. It seemed to give him strength. So Bavarius emptied the rest
|
|
of his clip into the thing's head then reloaded. He blew out her
|
|
brains so bad that it exploded in a cloud of vomit and regret.
|
|
She's not coming back from that, he thought to himself. Frozen with
|
|
guilt, the man slowly began to run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then he called the Chief and said ``cased closed.'' as he walked out
|
|
to his Camarro. He tried to start it but it was out of gas so he
|
|
walked to the gas station and bought some gas and put it in a gas
|
|
can then walked back and filled up his car with gas.
