Fresh air!

The Phantom enter's the garden through the double doors. As is usual these days, it is empty. Only a slight residual odor of chili remains. In2d3 cuts the main power for the lights and disappears into night. A small surprize is waiting for the Scooby Gang. The gang cautiously enters and finds...

TickTick -- Squelch, Squelch, Squelch

the gang, covered in pie filling (thanks Ragnar!) climbs slowly past the attic and to the roof garden.

"Okay, everybody armed?" Mrs. H asks.

"Got the super shooter thingies" TickTick adds, forgetting in her nervousness what General Cal's weapons are called. Ragnar and Annisette grin to each other.

"LET ME AT 'EM!!" Sword shouts suddenly.

"LET'S GO!" Leaped adds.

"Hush!" SunAeryn says.

They emerge onto the roof garden. There is a smell of chili but the lights are shut off.

"Mmmm...chili would be good right now," the Ticker says.

"We can eat when we find the Phantom" Mrs. H. scolds quietly.

<<<<<WHAP!!! SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT!!!!>>>>>>>

"WHERE DOES HE GET THESE PIES!!!!"

the gang flings themselves to the floor...

RagnarRB -- It’s a she!

Ragnar explains, dropping to the floor, "It a she I say! It's a ..."

skip...skip..skip...whizzz...<SPLAT>

Now how did someone manage to skip a pie across the floor!

To his left Sword and Leaped had gone into their pie acts, brazenly standing in the onslaught, SunAeryn had wisely taken cover in their shadow. The squirming at Ragnars heels could only be TickTick and Annisette. "Is it just me or are you guys starting to get comfortable back there?"

The creme puff gernade launchers begin to sound. It's a good thing this skirmish is taking place at the steps and not in the garden proper. What a mess that would be!

From down the stairs a strangers voice drifts up "Mops, buckets, cleaners, yep chief it's all here. There was no trouble gathering the crew either. Most of them hadn't made it out of the Mop house since the last cleaners alarm! This is my forth day with overtime this week!"

"Yeh, yeh, yeh, well at least its double pay. If you get enough you can buy that Aeryn doll for christmas..."

The cleaning crew settled in to wait. The attic was very important. It would have to be cleaned!

But where was The Phantom Hunter?.........

in2d3 -- I’m safe now!

They are all running down to the main floor. The automated defenses are working beautifully. I think I'll work on my Halloween party surprize. The Phantom slips back into the secret passages to ponder his diabolical plan.
