I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE." >Ugh. He stops by every now and then just to insult you. >Doesn't even matter if you have never been late on rent. >He just doesn't like you. >You unlock the door and open it. >"There's the mutant dog." "That's a new one." >"Yeah, couldn't keep on calling you a hairless ape. Anyway, I have a reason for being here today." >Oh, this is going to be good. >"Pack your stuff, I'm evicting you." >Yeah, this was go... Wait. what. "I'm pretty sure you have to give me a week's notice or something..." >"I did. I posted a note on your door saying 'Get out'" >That was him? You thought that was some little kid or something. >"You have until three to get out. If you're not out by then, all the shit that's in this apartment is mine." >3 o' clock? "THAT'S HALF AN HOUR!" >"Yeah, so be fast. Oh, and if you're still here at three, I'm calling the cops." >He turned around and shut the door. >That asshole. >Who DOES that sort of thing? >You turn your mind from vengeance and start to pack. >Or, at least, throw your belongings out into the hallway. >As you're doing this you see the landlord walk back down the hall. >He looks at your pile of junk. >"That's still on the apartment. I also forgot to say that you still owe for this month's rent." >His face. It looks so... punchable. >You feel your fist clench. >No one would miss this schmuck, would they? >You loosen your fist and decide it's not worth it. "Fine." >You get up and walk back into your be... your former bedroom and picked up your bag o' bits. >You open it and grab the amount needed for rent and put them in a smaller bag. >You put the giant bag of bits on your back and walk back out with the smaller bag in your hand. "Here." >You throw the bits at him, but he side steps and they just hit the wall. >"Try that again and I'll have you locked up!" "Just get your bits and leave me alone." >You let out a sigh and realize you have yet to put pants or a shirt on. >You get a pair of relatively clean shorts and a shirt from your pile of junk. >After putting them on, you look at the time. >fifteen minutes. >Shit. >You have get going faster. >Or, at least get the crap you care about out. >You walk back inside and grab a backpack that you had. >Inside was your laptop, phone, and headphones... load of good those things can do you. >You keep them on hopes of being able to charge 'em sometime. >A man can hope. >You start to gather all the crap that you will really need. >You pack up a pair of shorts, pants, and some socks. >Only had one pair of shoes, due to no one here knowing how to make them. >You look at the clock. >Ten minutes. >You grab all the other things you needed, and are out of there before three. >Walking down the street, no where to go, you just sort of wander. >Your absent minded wandering brought you to out side of your work place, the local night club. >Now, while it didn't open to the public, the boss has said before that if anything happens, they are free to stop by. >Lets hope that offer still stood. >You goto the door and use the key they gave you. >Walking inside, you ask out,"Hello? Anyone here?" >You hear some foot steps from inside, and then hear,"Waddya want?" >The figure steps a little closer, and you see it's your boss. "Hey there, uhh, boss..." >"Anon, issat you? The hell you doing here at this hour?" "I... Kinda, sorta got evicted." >She seemed to become more alert once you said that. >"How'd that happen?" "The landlord was a dick on the ninth degree of dick. Remember that note I told you about a few weeks ago?" >"Yeah, what about it?" "That was my two weeks notice." >She sortta glared at you slack jawed. "So, I abesnlty wandered around, and ended up here." >"And then you remembered what I said, didn't you?" "Yup." >"Well, you sound like you could use a drink. So could I." "Is that your way of asking me to work for free?" >"I dunno, is it going to work?" >You let out a small laugh, and get to the bar area. >You get out the drinks. >You wish they had a ponified version of Kraken, but they don't. >You just get out the Applejack Danleis for you. "The usual right?" >"Nah, to early for that. I'll just have what you're having." >You shurg and get out two glasses
