Captain Niples (with amnesia)
Parotts bar
Before the wedding, after Stag night crew has just come in
"So we're in a parallel dimenshhun?" said Captain Niples, slurring his words
as the alcohol had taken its firm grip.
"Yup" said L'ontar.
"And we can't get home yet?"
"I think someone's working on it. I'd normally say that captain's going to
handle it but I dont think he is."
"Why's that?"
"Because he's sprawled out on a table in front of me with complete memory
loss, and I dont think the beer he just drank helped much."
Dren walked over, looking a little nervous and slightly confused at seeing
the Captain in this state.
"This isn't like you at all Captain!"
Seymour looked up. "What's wrong? Don't I usually drink beer?"
Dren saw that the Captain was really out of it and decided to be bluntly
honest.
"Nahh, you usually stick to your namby-pamby chardonnay stuff."
Seymour reached for the bowl of bar nuts. Dren stopped him.
"Never touch the bar-nuts."
"Why?"
Dren pointed to the toilets. "People don't wash their hands, come out and
put their grubby mitts in the bowl. Lots of germs."
"Hmpf." said Seymour. "I guess I don't know much about pubs. I take it I
never really came in here much?"
He saw someone out of the corner of his eye. It was the dark-haired Katrina
Swete standing at the doorway beckoning seductively to him. The drunken
captain staggered to the doorway and kissed her. He didn't notice which hair
colour she had, things like that were too confusing late at night after a
few of those dirty pints.
**Next day**
Seymour woke up in his quarters with a banging headache. In fact the banging
was partly (but only partly) to do with someone trying to knock his door
down. He got out of bed, noticing that the bedcovers were all over the
place. I must have had a good night, he thought.
In his expensive silk dressing gown he opened the door to see a steaming
Katrina gazing at him. He instantly remembered last night. Or did he? He
remembered Katrina bringing him back to his quarters, but was the one facing
him the same girl? And if not, what happened to the other?
"Has you hair always been like that?" He croaked.
"What's the sudden facination about my hair lately?" Katrina said, pushing
him into the room. "You're not even dressed. Come on, hurry up!"
"What for?"
"The WEDDING!! Hurry!"
<<Katrina? Sorry if its going all wierd, I'm posting in different
time-frames just to keep up and not miss anything out.>>
