One more thing
by Harbinger of Death
"Oh, don't think I forgot about you." Harbinger looked into his closet.
Keleos and the rats were still frozen in there. He hauled their stiff ghost bodies out,
and waved his hand. They blinked and came back to life.
"Man, I could throttle you!" Kel said, coming for him, her hands out in front of
her.
"Now just back off there, chickie," HoD said, holding her at arm's length.
"It's all right. It's Halloween now."
"You owe me big time!" said Kel, hands on her hips.
"Yeah!" chorused the rats. "Big time!"
He thought for a moment. "Tell you what," he said. "I'm getting the
Battlefield rebuilt, as you know. Since you guys are living there now, why don't you take
a look at the blueprints and see if there's anything in particular you'd like to
add."
"Oooh!" Kel's eyes lighted up. "A brand new Battlefield? Remodeled and new
and everything?"
"You bet. Have a look and I'll see what I can work in."
They sat at the table and spread out the floor plan, and put in all kinds of nice
amenities for themselves. HoD sighed. It would probably cost a fortune to get it reworked,
but it was a small price to pay to avoid their wrath. Sometimes doing whatever was
necessary to keep a Deb happy was the best way to resolve a situation.
