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

*Bows submissively* My lips will be sealed, my lady. Sorry about this, My Prince.*Grabs Tijerius under his armpit* Right. Where do we go from here?

*Lowell rolls her eyes as she takes hold of the Prince's ankles*

.. We will have to keep to the back alleys. When we are near the Angel Inn, we can risk moving onto easier pathways..


*sighing at her shoes, she kicks them off.. *


.. No good in this terrain and the Prince can purchase me another pair!..

*They start moving back to Lowell's appartments*

*Follows, holding Tijerius as firmly and politely as possible*

*Being careful where she places her stockinged feet, Lowell leads the way*

.. You might as well tell me about yourself.. I don't recall seeing you in Court..


*She isn't really interested, but at least it passes the time if she has to remain in this stranger's company*

There's not much to tell, really. I have not been in this city very long. I came here because where I lived, our kind were persecuted. My family hid me and were executed for it. I left our homestead after that and became a wanderer. I found this fair city by accident and now hope to spend the rest of my existence here, have my old life of luxury back. But I am boring you. *Watches as she walks* Milady, what size shoe do you take? I ask only because you seem to be having difficulty walking barefoot, while I have no trouble. I would hate to see your pretty feet damaged.

*Suddenly realises Aximilli has asked her a questions*

Eh?.. Oh.. size 4.. Anyway, I wouldn't have needed to walk if this daft lummox hadn't drawn all my strength in one go!..

*She hefts the Prince's ankles to ease the weight on her hands*


.. We haven't much further to go..


*Lowell is now determined to make the Prince pay for her discomforts*

Size 4? Unfortunately, I cannot help you. I take a size 7.

What did you do anyway, if you don't mind me asking? He was certainly angry when he arrived here and you seem little better. No offence meant of course.

Do??

He doesn't have to do anything!

*Lowell is now back to her normal snappy self*


He's the Prince!.. He's always 'doing' things wrong, as far as I am concerned!

Hang on! Did you say he was angry? Tijerius?.. *laughs* .. Never! Upset about his Sire, maybe.. Oh! He's probably annoyed because his brother is in the City.. and..

*Suddenly Lowell realises she is saying too much.. *..

.. and.. His brother beats him at everything.. sibling rivalry..


Here we are.. That appartment block directly ahead..

*Quickly, Lowell tugged the Prince and Aximilli across the manicured lawns and gardens, into the building*

*They wait for the lift*

No. He was absolutely livid when I saw him, and he was screaming your name. *Realises something* It looked like he just fell out of a shadow, but he couldn't have...could he? *Dismisses this obviously foolish and impossible notion* Forget I said it. Please.

*Lowell tugged them both into the lift*

.. No, of course not.. He couldn't fall out of a shadow, that would be silly!


Did you push me out of the shadow too? Did you cross into purgatory? </>


*As the doors slide open, Lowell tugs them both along the corridor to her appartments*

That's exactly what I thought. It must have been a trick of the light.

*Lowell drops the Princes feet, as she looks for her key*

.. Eh?.. Yes.. You must have missed something.. Now where is that blasted key?..

Aaah.. There it is!.. *pulls the key from her hidden pocket inside her cloak*


*Opens the door and leaves Aximilli to cope with the Prince*


If you go into the room on the left of the hall, you can place the Prince on the bed in there..

*Rebil watches in amazment*


erm......so......

*Picks the Prince up with some difficulty and carries him to the bed, where he lays him down gently*

There we go. Now...what to do with an unconscious vampire...*To Lowell* Do you think a cold jug of water will work like it does for mortals?

*Lowell glares at the young man*


.. Don't be silly!

Now, do you mind leaving? Thank you for your help..


*pushes Aximilli towards the front door*

.. Oh.. I don't need to warn you to keep quiet about this, do I?

Especially as the Prince is in my apartments.. You wouldn't want to ruin my reputation in the Elysium, would you?


*Before he can reply, Lowell closes and locks the front door*..


*sighing, she goes to sit with the Prince as he sleeps*

*Rebil gets from the park she shortly visited and comes back,she then good bye to Chris and then walks back to the bar a Elysium*

Well... *Heads back into the city to reflect on all this, and finds himself back at the fountain. He almost walks into it before he sees it, he's so lost in his thoughts.*

*stops as she sees a big store which sells Candy floss and other treats*

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW




*She then screams really loudly that brakes this mans glasses and is heard all over Requiem city*

*Hears the scream* Not again. *sighs heavily and goes off to investigate. Again*

*stares in the window of the candy shop and see a HUGE the size of a house chocolate fountain*

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW



*screams again*
