THE WAREHOUSE HOTLINE

|41|: Is That How You Talk To A Villain?

"Welcome to the Warehouse Hotline. How can I make your day even more evil?"

"Hey, sweet chicks."

"What's up, grit salt."

"Is that how you talk to another villain?"

"Is that how you talk to another better villain?"

"I see you're quite the cool one."

"Depends, who's asking."

There was a chuckle on the other end of the line.

"I just wanted to say, a superhero may have been defeated today by a villain."

"And what are you, their villain messenger?"

"Consider it that way."

"Who was this superhero?"

"Goodie."

There was a small silence lingering from Dianna's end of the line.

"Alright. So?"

"Why would a pretty lady like you question this."

"Because a jerk like you will have to answer it."

"I like your words, but all I can say is this new villain seems like he could put superheroes out of business. Your call."

"Lemme give you one piece of advice. Stop calling. Stay evil."

The line went dead.

"This villain seems quite feisty. Interesting."
