Part    two

.............................." Errrr what's the superbike? " asked Billy, perplexed.

"Ahh," said Leo, "it's my new bike, I got it free with my cornflakes this morning. It's the one with green wheels and two free red helmets."

Billy was partly thinking, "A motorbike in a box of cornflakes!!!???" but was mostly thinking," how ghastly a green motorbike, with red helmets, cringe my two least favourite colours together."

"Come on, hurry up and get that suit of yours on," panted Leo, squeezing into a boy wonder costume that looked as though it had been used in the last batman movie, which was in fact true. Once in this suit however he did look very.....well.....interesting, considering the fact that he was drowning in the suit ,now in it.

"Don't worry" yelled Billy, "just keep your head above water, and you'll be fine." Billy threw him a lifebelt and they got him out of it in one piece. Luckily they didn't have to cut the suit, and with the help af a handy sewing machine, some seamstresses, and a welder, they soon had the suit fitting him perfectly, apart from the minor detail that he was allergic to some of the material used to make it, and as a result was scratching incessantly.

Up to the attic they went to look for Billy's old phantom suit, there were all sorts of interesting things up there. A semi-automatic assault rifle, some hand grenades, a canister of sleeping gas, a tank, a nuclear war head, a mouldy cheese sandwich and a rubber chicken, minus its head.

"Wow!" said Leo when he saw everything, "Do you think we could use any of this stuff to save the world from evil Kate?"

"Good idea" agreed Billy and picked up the headless chicken. "We could use this as decoy while you whack this under her nose." He picked up the mouldy cheese sandwich and both he and Leo passed out from the smell. When they came round again, not realising what had just happened Billy grabbed the cheese sandwich and quickly put it in his pocket, intending to use it as bate for evil Kate, who, it was common knowledge, loved mouldy cheese sandwiches.

After digging around in old chests for over an hour, they finally found what they were looking for, the purple suit. Billy squeezed into it and began to admire himself in the mirror. "God I look good in this suit," said Billy modestly. Leo meanwhile had developed a nasty rash from all the man-made fibres in his costume and was getting crabbier by the second.

" Come on Billy" snapped Leo "We have to save the earth before evil Kate gets it!"

" Alright , alright," sighed Billy, taking a long last look at himself in the mirror. His attention was quickly drawn back into the real world when a carrier pigeon flew straight through the window.

"Get back, get back!" Screamed Billy waving the headless chicken at it. "Don't hurt me" he pleaded.

The pigeon stared at him long and hard and said, in a voice not unlike that of the Godfather, "I have a message from her supreme evilness, Kate, read it and comply with all the demands." At least it would have said this in a voice not unlike that of the Godfathers had it been able to talk. As it was, and it was a pigeon, it sat there and cooed frustratedly, pecking at the string which was holding a dirty piece of notepaper to its leg. Leo took the paper and slowly unrolled it, he read,

" I am evil Kate and I demand that you all talk with an English poncey accent, wear pointy toed shoes, walk around on your toes all day AND wear red beaded dresses. If you don't comply I will huff until you do and you will all be sorry. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha he he he ha ha ha hehe he he he he he he he he he snort hee"

"Who writes out a page of manic laughter?!" queried Billy, "We've got to stop her!"

"You are absolutely right" said Leo who then took a running leap out of the window. Billy shrugged and jumped out after him..........................

Will evil Kate have her wicked ways? Why did they jump out of the attic window? What happened to the pigeon? All will be revealed next time.
