h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*Grabs up knife and holds it to C.J.'s neck.*

Not one more sound. Understand? Linus, are you all right?

I say we tie her up to the chair. Then we can talk in a much more relaxed environment. All these interruptions aren't contributing anything to the conversation. In fact, they tend to get me a bit nervous...

~spots a length of rope in a corner, gets it and waits for feedback~
~also makes sure that he is in posession of the zapper that Linus dropped when he encountered the coffee~

*Wakes up on the floor of the galley*

Hey! Who's kicking me? Ouch, my head hurts and what happend to the mobile food?

*Notices the hole in the wall, and CJ being held at bay by her fellow travelers*

Have I missed something here? What's the rope for Kheldar? Is there going to be a hanging or are we playing at skipping now?

Yuck !! That coffee tastes terrible. I think i need a beer to get rid of the taste

*directs a at CJ*

Tie her and gag her, Kheldar.

*Thinks about kicking this broad's legs out from under her, but is hampered from doing it by the muzzle of the phaser that Linus is holding on her. The coffee is dripping from his face and that at least makes her happy. Realizes that they couldn't have spaced her family because they just now escaped from their cell and haven't had time. The sweet-faced one is coming at her with a rope.*

#T#&($%#%#%$&^^#& !!! (swearing)

back at Linus!

LOL i think i could actually get to like you , given time and neutral territory...but in the mean time *fires the gun at CJ (it's on stun remember)*

That should make it a bit easier to tie her up

Thank you very much Linus .
It's a shame that the stunning doesn't include her tongue though. All this swearing. Good thing there aren't any kids about.

~starts tying CJ to her chair~

Well, I hate to do this, but since you really brought it upon yourself...

Perhaps they are messages of good will in here native tongue... but somehow i don't think so

It would mean that the look on her face is one of joy and happiness. Somehow I find that very hard to believe...

Is there a cupboard nearby that we can stuff her into? I'd hate for one of the crew to come in and raise an alarm. Do you think we should gag her too, for when she wakes up?

*Not too stunned, she is using ventriloquism, and approximating mari-rae's whiny voice: *

How about the cupboard under the stove? That looks like the right size. I really think we should put her in there.

~A little surprised to see CJ talking about herself in third person...~

That wasn't me who spoke, it was her!! She's trying something.

*Opens the cupboard under the stove and finds a good sized knife hanging in there.*

No wonder she wanted us to put her in there! Linus! Hit her again with a stronger setting on that phaser!!

*Linus shoots. C.J. really does look like she's out cold now.*

OK, so what do we do with her?

~still choking on the word 'ventriloquism'~

I don't know. I suppose we can't just leave her here.
It's a shame she's completely out now. I wanted to ask her a few questions. Anyway, maybe now I get a chance of flying a space ship...

~Suddenly Kheldar hears a sound. Turns to see if he can find out where the sound comes from...~ OK everybody, hold on, I'll be right back. ~and runs off to http://www.h2g2.com/F18878?thread=57793 ~

*Removes the knife and shoves C.J. into the cupboard. Shuts and locks it. Dusts hands off. Follows Kheldar, not forgetting to take the knife with her.*

~Sticks his head around the corner~

OK everybody, what's the plan? Shazz and TM have just arrived and wish to join us (I think ). They're waiting in the Docking Bay. Shall I call them over here, or are we going over there....

There's nothing going on in here any more, so let's go to the docking bay. Do they have a ship? Maybe we can escape!!

They do seem to have a shuttle. I'm pretty sure we all fit in there, so we can get out of here, back to our hovercraft (where we may find our lost adventurers back), and continue our way to Vegas. Or wherever we want to go, of course
