When Darren landed near a crowd of bikers, Wilfy was already dressed
in the provocative T-shirt and had a rope around his waist.
With a huge smile on his lips, Darren started to swing Wilfy
around and around above his head. He then threw Wilfy towards a bunch
of extra fat Hell's angles members. Darren then looked at Wilfy, rubbed
his hands, driveled and waited for his bait to come back with some
fresh bikers behind him. In the meantime, Wilfy stood up and brushed
off the worst dirt from his pants. A few bikers that had observed
Wilfy's T-shirt approached him with an angry walk. One of them said with
a hostile voice:
"What are your T-shirt saying?"
"Touch me and your are dead. ...Or something to that effect."
Just before the biker with the hostile voice had a chance to reply,
one of his friends said to him:
"Agamemnon, don't you recognize this man?"
``'No, and soon his own mother will not eider.
"I think it is Wilfy Baldman."
" That Wilfy Baldman?"
"I don't think that there is more than one..."
"Nice T-shirt. Sorry if bothered you."
"Okay, but now you really should run away all of you, else my dragon
on the other side of the lead will not stay hungry I bet.", Wilfy
threatened.
The bikers didn't hesitate for long before they all ran
away. Darren's eyes almost popped, and his chin fell down. 'What
happened????', stood written all over him. His 'biker magnet' had
turned into a 'biker repeller'. As he dragged Wilfy back to him, he
started to wonder what actually had happened:
"Well, maybe a few of the bikers had to hurry back home, so they should
not be late for dinner, and others probably had to hurry to the toilet
since they had drunken a lot of beer, and some of them definitely went
for an evening jog to stay in shape. Yes, that must be the reasons. It
could not have been the bait. I'm sure that it could not have been the
bait."
Darren then took Wilfy under his arm and walked back to a new place to
see if he had any better luck there. When he found the perfect spot,
he first stretched Wilfy's T-shirt so the text should be easy to read,
he then threw Wilfy away and started to hope for a catch. As he stood
there with his fingers crossed, Jesper came walking. Jesper said:
"Hello, Rodney!"
"Hello, Jesper.", Darren responded, with 99% of his attention
directed towards his bait.
However, after Darren had said hello to Jesper a vague feeling that
something weird just happened started to develop inside Darren. He
couldn't put his finger on what, but something was definitely not as
it should be.
Two minutes later the same unexplainable thing that happened before,
happened again; the bikers ran away from the bait. Very disappointed
Darren dragged his bait back to him. As he looked at Wilfy the weird
feeling that something supernatural just had happened came back to
him. However, after Darren shook his head wildly for one minute the
feeling was gone. He then said:
"What a lousy bait!", and threw Wilfy in a garbage container.
Jesper put his hand in his pocket and took up the gift voucher for
$5000 he got one hour earlyer. He smiled as he remembered how he
got it. If this had been a movie, and not a literary masterpiece,
Jesper's face would now have started to get fuzzy, swinging and slowly
fading away as a flashback begun. When the picture would be sharp
again Jesper would be standing in front of a sign.
"Fantastic look-a-like contest today!", Jesper would read, and to help his
reading, he would say it out loud at the same time.
Since Jesper always had
dreamed of meeting famous people, he then figured that seeing a copy was
almost as good. So, he entered a door not far away from the sign he
just read. Behind the door there was an empty room and three other
doors. Two of them were locked, but the one marked 'Staff only', was
open, so Jesper entered that door. Behind it there was a long dark
corridor which Jesper followed. Where the corridor ended it was a lot
of people. Jesper almost fell backwards when he noticed who they
were. He could see Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, Adolf Hitler,
Michael Jackson, and two Elvis Presleys!!
"I didn't know he had a twin..", Jesper murmured under his breath.
He then walked around among all the celebrities and touched some of them.
The shock of seeing all the famous people had made him
to totally forget all about the look-a-like contest.
Ten minutes later a loud voice announced:
"The jury is ready to give their verdict."
Jesper turned around and noticed shocked that he actual was standing
on a stage and that a big audience were looking at him.
The loud voice voice continued:
"Third prize and a gift voucher for $1000 to the mad dictator
Adolf Hitler. Second prize and $3000 to the lovely Marilyn Monroe,
and.... First prize and $5000 to the
most notorious mob leader, since Al Capone: Wilfy Baldman!"
Then, still assuming that this is a movie, everything would get fuzzy
again as the flashback ended. Then we
would be back to Jesper when he is holding his gift voucher and is
smiling. However, since this is not a movie we can't have a flashback
like that, and have to settle with knowing that Jesper won his gift
since he looked like his twin brother.
The gift voucher was only valid in radio stores called 'Honest Ray's
Radios', so Jesper had ever since he got the unexpected first prize,
been looking for such store. When he finally found one, he entered it
and walked directly to a pretty saleswomen, that obviously was working
for 'Honest Ray', and said:
"Do you have any really powerful amplifiers?"
"Yes, we have these new small but extremely powerful Japanese
ones. However, they are not cheap. They cost $500."
Jesper seemed to think really hard, so the saleswoman, who was very
good at selling things, said:
"Gun's and Roses' used one of these on their last concert where 43
people got severe impairment of their hearing."
Jesper still was in deep thoughts. He finally said:
"If I have $5000, and the amplifiers cost $500. How many can I
buy. Is it eight??"
"No, ten."
"In that case I take ten amplifiers."
The saleswoman looked suspiciously at Jesper, but since she
just managed to sell amplifiers for $5000 she was so pleased that
she didn't bother what the feeble minded man should do with his
advanced amplifiers. Jesper payed, filled his pocket with amplifiers
and walked out on the streets again.
As he stood on the pavement wondering what to do next, Olivia came
running. She gave him a powerful hug and said:
"Darling! You are still alive. Thank God! Ever since Darren flew away
to get you as his biker bait, I have been so worried."
"Ha! You lost! You said Darren and not Rodney!", Jesper said with
triumph in his voice. Then he analyzed what Oliva said and whispered:
"Darren! Me a biker bait?"
He was sounding as if he was just about to faint.
"Yes, Darren saw you at the airport as you walked out of the plane."
"Oh, my God! I'm so scared that I can't even remember that I have been
on an airport"
"Well, you were. I myself saw when Darren flew away with you."
Since Jesper had a vague feeling that he recently had been flying
with Darren he
therefor assumed that Olivia was right. Thus, he fainted.
Three blocks away form the fainting moron, a man with a similar set of
genes was about to regain consciousness, only to find that he was lying
in a container. He became very angry and screamed out laud:
"Nobody! Not even a freaky reptile treats me like this and survives!
Dragon, prepare to meet your ancestors. Worms, a huge dinner is to be
delivered to you real soon."
He removed the smelliest of the garbage that was stuck on him and
climbed up from the container. In the meantime his brain worked full
out to find a way to confute Darren. Two minutes later the smile on
Wilfy's lips showed that he just found a way to get rid of his new
enemy.
