She thought, secretly, that the halls really weren't this long, but it was merely the spatial anomaly of LNHHQ itself. It would have to be, she thought, the same unknown force which continually reshaped the lawn when it is torn apart by a villain, or what caused the speedy repair of walls after they had been exploded, or ripped down, or somesuch. She broke herself out of her reverie, and walked up to the doorway to Browsing Boy's quarters. They had made a date. She would pick him up when she was ready, and they'd head out to the movies. *knock, knock* she knocked on the old door. Nothing. No sound whatsoever. *knock, knock* she knocked again, still with no reply. "The little...he stood me up!" Linguist Lass proclaimed. He should have said something if he couldn't make it. Something must have happened. Calmly, she collected herself, and wandered off towards The Monitor Room, to ask if Dr.Stomper had seen him. As she walked off, The fingers of Browsing Boy creaked open the door, and BB crept around it. His eyes burned with primordeal heckfire. "Have you seen Browsing Boy?" Linguist Lass asked, as she wandered into the monitor room. Dr.Stomper looked up from his notes. "Nope. Sorry. Last I saw, he was coming in from a mission, wandered off, out of sight." Dr.Stomper replied, a worried look crossing his face. "Something wrong?" "No, no. Just looking for him, that's all." Linguist Lass replied, and quickly walked out of the room. Lately, she could barely be in the same room with the Doc. Her mind would readily go back to the feelings she had after recovering from Romantic Innuendo's manipulating her to fall in love with him. She felt sick to her stomach when she was around him. "The Peril Room." She cooed, and headed for the Excersize/combat training facility of the LNH. _The Peril Room_ Linguist Lass quickly entered the huge room, expecting to find her beau. She did not. She, however, did find the Ultimate Ninja. UN was in the middle of his "Kill the Whole LNH" combat simulation, and at the moment had been removing the bodyparts of the Perilroom version of Entropy Kid. "Ninjas SUCK!!!!" Entropy Kid yelled, as one opinion for the thread. More of a flame, really, but it was all the same to the mysterious warrior. "Ahh...20 seconds flat. I'll want to shave that time a bit." Ultimate Ninja muttered to himself, as the Peril Room computer cleared the battlefield. "LINGUIST LASS! What are you here for? Late night combat sim?" UN mumbled, as he walked over to his fellow LNHer. "No...UN...Just looking for Browsing Boy." LL replied, as she surveyed the slowly resetting Peril Room. "Haven't seen him. Tried paging him on the Commpanel?" UN suggested, as he called up the Twisted Ultimate Ninja program. "Not yet. I should. Thanks for the help." Linguist Lass noted, and walked out of Peril Room. UN sighed in relief, and began to fight his Peril Room counterpart. "Die!" UN yelled, as he lunged with his Ninja ginsu knife. _The Cafeteria_ With no sign of BB, Linguist Lass wandered into the cafeteria....to be overcome by Heckfire... ****************************************************************************** Next Issue: The Conclusion of Netherspawn... ****************************************************************************** Linguist Lass, Browsing Boy, and Dr.Stomper are Public domain.
