Coming to America
Chapter Two
Herb looked at the baggage carousel. Lime and Mint were running
around the carousel yelling and pointing.
"It's not over here Herb-sama!"
"Not over here!"
Herb yelled at them,"It's a twelve foot tall steamer trunk! I think I'll be
able to see it with my own two eyes when it comes by!"
Lime and Mint looked at Herb and then went back to yelling and pointing.
"Not there!"
After an hour of such humiliation from his minions Herb decided to give up.
He groaned and said,"Come on you two idiots let's go ask the airline agent
if they know where our luggage is."
Herb turned around and began to walk towards the agent's booth.
He said to himself,"Well, at least those two idiots lost all of their
tapes."
Two voices shouted,"Herb-sama! Look at what we found!"
"Spoke too soon," Herb grumbled to himself.
---
The agent had to bite his tongue to stop from laughing.
He looked at the oddly dressed blue haired man before him and asked,"You
want to know where your luggage is?"
Herb said,"Yes."
The agent said,"And you expect us to find it and give it back to you within
the hour?"
Herb said,"Yes."
The agent couldn't help it and fell on the floor laughing his ass off.
After a couple of minutes the agent regained control of himself and got back
up.
"I demand to know where my luggage is Mr.-" Herb read the tag on the
agent's
shirt,"Delta."
"Uh, my name is actually-"
Herb waved his hand and said,"I don't care! Just tell me where my luggage
is."
The agent looked at his computer terminal and asked Herb," You wouldn't
happen
to be visiting Alpha Centauri anytime soon?"
Herb growled and the agent said,"Hey, don't get so mad! Here we'll
reimburse you."
The agent took out two suitcases from behind his desk. He put the suitcases
on the desk and said,"The guy who owned them was arrested before he could
pick
them up so you can have them."
Herb yelled,"Lime! Mint! We're leaving!"
Lime and Mint ran right next to Herb. He pointed to the two suitcases and
Lime grabbed them as they walked away.
Mint asked,"Where are we going Herb-sama?"
"We're going to pick up a car and get out of this place."
Lime and Mint sang,"We gotta get outta this place! If it's the last thing
we ever do! We gotta get outta this place! Girl there's a better life for
me and you!"
Herb tried to ignore their wailing and just prayed that the car they would
get didn't have a tape player.
---
"I'm singin' in the rain! Just singin' in the rain! What a glorious
feeling!
I'm happy again!"
It did.
Herb yelled at them from the back of the mini-van,"Will you two shut the
hell up?!"
Both Lime and Mint turned around to look at Herb and said,"Hai, Herb-sama!"
Herb yelled,"The road! Watch the road!"
Mint turned back to driving the car, but kept his eyes on Herb.
"Don't worry Herb-sama! They do this all the time in old movies and
they don't hit-"
SMASH!
"-anybody."
Herb, Lime and Mint all looked ahead at the car they had just rammed into.
Mint said,"What should we do, Herb-sama?"
"Get the hell out of here!"
As Mint pulled the mini-van away from the other car he said,"It's the
American
way."
---
"Herb-sama! Can I drive the car?!" Mint whined from the back of the
mini-van where he sat next to Lime.
Herb was driving the mini-van and said "No."
"Can we listen to our tapes?"
"No."
"Can we sing?"
"No."
"C-"
"No."
"Herb-sama, I was only going to ask if we could open these suitcases we got
at the airport."
Herb shrugged his shoulders and said,"Do what you want, but don't throw out
anything valuable."
Lime said,"Herb-sama, there are a bunch of bags of white stuff in here!
What
should we do with them?"
Herb said,"Give them to me."
Lime handed the bags of 'white stuff' to Herb. When he looked at the bags
Herb rolled down his window and threw them out the window.
Mint asked,"Herb-sama, why did you throw it out the window? I thought you
wanted to keep all of the valuable stuff?"
Herb snorted and said,"Bah! There's no way a bag full of whit dust is worth
anything you idiots."
Next Time! Las Vegas! The real city of lights!
Until I find better things to write about. Ja ne.
