A meeting of minds

Monday, September 28th, 2009

The head of the Illuminati was short.  He had green eyes and blonde hair.  He sat at his desk looking over the shipping manifest.  If they did not find a planet soon that could provide the needed… no there was nothing until you got beyond the Infinity Break.

A woman confidently entered the room. “Reid, Dahling, you know why I am here, lets cut to the chase, where is it?”

“Juno, I told you before, our supplies are out.  We are looking for more, but-”  He was cut off by her shout.

“Liar!”  She screamed, “I know you are hiding it from us.  We will grind you to dust and take what is ours!”

“If you destroy us, who will find more for you?”  He replied far more calmly than he felt.

“Please, maybe you have just a little, saved for emergencies.  Not enough for everyone, just a little for me?  I won’t tell anyone, I just need a little.”

Reid sighed, “Well, it would be easier to find more if our asteroid base hadn’t been ‘mysteriously’ destroyed,” he replied.

Juno shrugged, “Well, I had to make sure you still needed us.  Those animals are no substitute for us.”
