Predator Press

[LOBO]

I was only slowly regaining consciousness.

The Crone was saying something about 'The Dragon' destroying China.

"Does that evil dragon have a name?" asks Princess Phoebe.

"Yes," says The Crone. "His name is 'Scraps'."

Brighta tried to heave me onto my woozy legs. "So the dragon destroying China's name is 'Scraps'?" he asks.

"See for yourselves," says The Crone, workin the TIVO remote control. "They have footage of Scraps wading up through the Tokyo Harbor on CNN".

The actual footage was rather blasé and unspectacular ... the Japanese were kinda used to this sort of thing. But the point was well taken.

"We have to stop it!" says Brighta.

See, I already know this whole thing is a scam. 'China' is a made-up thing by the CIA, just like The Soviet Union, Vietnam, the 'Moon Landing', and Oprah ... It's all a vast global conspiracy to keep America livin in fear. Just like that 'World is Round' dogma.

C'mon, think about it: if there really was a "France", wouldn't we have just airlifted New Jersey over and dropped it on 'em? Of course we would've. In fact, I'll bet we would nuke it ten years later just in case any roaches survived ...

Balanced by Brighta, I blinked my blackened eyes open.

Princess Phoebe was looking at me carefully. "Are you okay?" she asked. "I'm really sorry about that. We're trying to save the world."

I mumbled something softly, and she leaned in closely to hear.

An that's when I jacked her up.
