"HELP HELP I'M BEING HAUNTED!" I was reading up on hauntings when Nidget came rushing into my store screeching like well Nidget. I swear if it seems like the same cast of morons come into my store instead of anyone else? Its only because I only talk about the idiots showing up, all the boring customer stories I don't mention, but they exist!
"Hunted you're being hunted? Awesome." Ok so my hearing is not the best, and I did write the proper word up there, but come on haunted and hunted sound the same I'm not crazy.
"Not hunted! Haunted you idiot!"
"Right or you have mice in your house and you just don't notice it, happens all the time." Yes despite Captain Therod having me look into hauntings and such I wrote Nidget off as an idiot who didn't realize he had mice.
"Its not Mice Trezlan, there was an old woman in my house!"
"So you hired a cleaning lady and forgot! Geez Nidget you should be nicer to that lady."
"TREZLAN! JUST COME TO MY HOUSE!" I sighed took the sign out from behind my counter that said "Back sometime maybe just check back" and went with Nidget to his "haunted" house. I'll admit I thought he probably was haunted, I just didn't want him knowing I thought that, becuase you know I'm an asshole. So we made our way over to the hovel that Nidget occupied with Andre (who despite being a bodyguard and a church member did not do ghosts Nidget informed me, silly martial combat loving people).
The house was basically a two room shack near the edge of town, Nidget lived near other shorties in a similar situation (they tended to group together for this kind of stuff). I did notice on my way over no one was outside their doors, now they may have thought I was some kind of authority (due to my regal nature), but it definately seemed odd. Once inside I could see Nidget kept an extremely messy house, junk was just strewn all over, Andre was standing amongst it and nodded as I entered.
"Nidget your cleaning lady sucks."
"THIS IS WHAT ITS DOING TO ME!"
"Yes Trezlan this is not how it normally is, we cleaned this up last night and wake up and its back to being a mess." Andre seemed purturbed by it, I also noticed his eyes looked a little bloodshot, like he hadn't been sleeping.
"Right of course a ghost messed up your house, and not just you two being lazy slobs, like I'm going to open Nidget's room and there will be a pristine collection of neatly arranged..." I had the door open and was going through with my dickish display (I could tell Nidget's room from Andre's because he helpefully wrote NIDGETS on it) when I saw the strung up corpse of I assume the man that Captain Therod was looking for the other day. "Body parts strung up like a creepy display, well I'll admit that was unexpected." Nidget and Andre stared in disbelief, I took it in stride, and slammed the door shut.
"Ok so you might be haunted."
