Så begynder the ace of spades og her er et råd hvis du går og overvejen at give en person en accent, lad være! det er pisse svært. Nu må vi lige se om der er nogle der kan gætte hvilken accent han har, ellers må man sige at jeg har løbet panden mod en mur. Forresten har min novelle the horrors of the dream world opnået 220 visninger inde på fylde pennen hvilket er rimelig sygt :D Og Why do I exist er blevet vist 104 gange, plus den har fået positive kommentarer, yay for me! :D
Nå men her er så prologen til min næste superhelte historie med mig og B's helte. Glæd dig og gør dig klar til en rimelig syret oplevelse med latterlige superkræfter, geniale skurke og ikke mindst en badass antihelt der ikke er bange for at kyle lidt rundt med møbleriet.
The ace of spades - Prolog
Four people sat in darkness all of them quiet, all of them rich, all of them powerful, and all of them angry. They kept their rage under control as they sat at the giant table filling the room. The room was left in darkness and the round table stood exactly in the middle of the room. At the table sat the four men, and between them was one lone chair missing the person that had always sat in it. All the chairs where slim and had a high back, where made from comfortable leather and had cost more than an average family made in a year, but right now they could not care less, they had other matters to discuss.
”Maximilian was a mistake.” Said the man to the left
”Indeed” answered the man to the far right.
“But he did serve his purpose.” Continued the man to the far left.
“Indeed.” Replied the man to the far right again.
“Bringing S.U.P.E.R. and the government to their knees in one stroke is simply a stunning feat.” Said the man to the far left again.
“Indeed” Replied the man to the far right once again.
“His methods however was nothing special” said the man to the right thereby joining the conversation. “He reached his goals due to pure luck. He was lucky enough to find a spy, lucky enough not to be noticed and lucky enough to hack into the S.U.P.E.R. database. But eventually his luck ran out. One second rank hero took out his entire operation, pathetic.”
“Nein meine Herren!” said a voice that came out of nowhere.
“Who said that?” Demanded the man on the right. “Show yourself!”
“Youse need not shout, mein Herr. “ Said the voice again as a tall man dressed in a black suit, a hat and a high hat came strolling out of the darkness, gracefully dragging a small chair with him. “I am merely suggesting that youse are wrong.” He said, gracefully sitting down on the chair.
“Who are you? How did you get in here?” raged the man on the right.
The newcomer pulled out a deck of cards and started shuffling them before he answered: “twei questions and jet none of them has any real meaning.” He stopped shuffling the cards and pushed them across the table where the man on the far left caught them. “Do youse believe in fortune telling?”
He asked the four men and then added to the man with the cards: “Just deal them round as you please. A few in front of me, a few in the middle and the rest in front of youseself.”
“What are you here for, mister?” said the man now dealing the cards round. “Do you even know who we are?”
“Ja meinen herren.” He said as the last cards where dealt. “and now I shall show you the world as it is.”
The newcomer looked down on the cards and started talking. “I see that the cards agree with me in this matter. Four cards are in front of youse meinen herren. Turn the cards as I say what they are if you please. To the far left, the King of diamonds, next the king of spades, then the king of clubs, and last to the far right, the king of hearts.“ The four men all turned their cards and the four kings was their in the precise order he had called them.
“Indeed” said the King of hearts before the newcomer continued.
“These cards represent youse positions as the kings of crime. The cards in front of the four main cards should be random cards between twei and zen, they are youses minions.” The cards were turned and jet again he was correct.
“In the middle of the table are the ace of hearts and the ace of diamonds.” He said and flipped the corresponding cards. “and now” he said in a exited voice “It gets interesting. You see these four cards in front of the government represents S.U.P.E.R. While I know that these cards are the Jacks,“ he flipped the cards and revealed four jacks before he continued: ”the interesting part however are these two cards behind the gouverment. These two cards have never been shown in my readings before, and even stranger is the fact that both cards are Jokers.“ He flipped the cards with a grim look on his face. “The fact that these cards are behind the gouverment cards and not in front of them like the S.U.P.E.R. cards, could mean that they have jet to pick a side in this future conflict. The fact that they are Jokers also suggests that it is not possible to figure out what they will do. I believe that one of them is the “second rank hero” that took down Maximilian. But the other remains ein Mysterium meine Herren.”
“The only cards left now is the cards on your side of the table, mister.” Said the king of diamonds. “Will you enlighten us in the meaning of your cards as well?”
“I will in a moment meine herren. But first I will tell you how the situation looks for you. S.U.P.E.R. is as weak as it ever will be, but youse are not strong enough to defeat both them and the government. With the twei jokers on the loose youse will lose in this conflict. But this is where we come in.” We flipped four of the five cards in front of him revealing four queens.
“These are my queens and this is my favorite lady” he said tapping the queen of spades. “She and the other queens bring enough power to the conflict to bring us the victory. I myself bring unmatched strategy to the table and I do happen to have a few tricks up my sleeves as well.”
“Why?” asked the king of clubs briskly: “Why do you take our side? What is your motive?”
“My motive, well gentlemen, I just happen to love games and this will turn out to be the greatest game of all time. Ein rockband but it this way:
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I know you are not normal gamblers but a plan to take over the entire world is truly a terrific gamble. So as I said, I’m youses man. I shall leave youse now, but I will return when I have a plan or new information for youse.”
“We have not hired you, mister.“ said the king of diamonds. As the weird card man started walking into the shadows again “and you have not answered our first question jet.”
“There will be no need to hire me, I work for the game and youse have the best game. To who I am I will answer with the song from before:
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades
The Ace Of Spades
There was completely quiet after he had left, his high hat disappearing in the shadow, just as mystically as he had arrived, without a trace. In the void his departure had left the king of hearts leaned over the table and turned the man’s card.
“Indeed.” He said as he saw the ace of spades looking up at him.
