It sounds like Constantine is quite the character....I can just picture him standing, tossing his hat behind the cabinet, trying to get the groundskeeper attention. I think he kind of wants to be the groundskeeper's friend.

Oh, a true character he is, my lady -- glad he caught your attention! ;)
Comment from Mary Kay Bonfante
A pink ball that turns into an armadillo? This is so much fun!
And who else would beat up a file cabinet, but the infamous G-Trash!
Halt, you Heathens? You have left me in suspense.

Gotta keep those pre-teen attentions that are used to video games and such!! ;) Thanx so much for your 'joining in', my lady! ;) Yvette

Oh yeah, I never thought of that! I don't have teenagers (or any kids at all), but that's so true. You're welcome, dear Yvette, as always.

I greatly enjoy the character 'Constantine' !
A pink ninja-like armadillo? Wow! Do all authors 'indulge' for their writing? Hehehe!

Comment from robyn corum
Y,
Another lovely chapter with all the same sort of delicious ingredients one has come to expect from you. *smile*
Notes - for you to use or toss, as you wish:
1.) "Hey!" (h)e interjected excitedly, waving his hand back and forth.
2.) "Do I look like the kind of fella that would beat up an unsuspecting cabinet?!"
--> aaaccctually, you're only supposed to use one form of punctuation in each setting. I understand this is for a younger crowd, though. Hmmm...
Thanks so much - moving on...

Hooray for the second set of eyes -- you rock, my lady!! ;) Hope you've got a fun weekend on tap -- the weather is going to be fantastic! ;) Enjoy!! ;)

The garden shed reveals more of its secrets. This is a novel that is racing along in its own small corner of the world - you prove that you can pack a lot of action into a mere five hundred words.

Comment from Lu Saluna
This garden and shed are full of surprises. A pink armadillo no less. And who is that lighting the shed? The rose bush. I love a good fantasy story.
And this is a good one.

Yvette,
Ok... Nicholas is getting introduced to all sorts of magical creatures. Your dialogue is so good in this. I love the back and forth between Nicholas and Constantine-very believable and unforced. It looks like the grounds keeper is going to be an exciting one.
on to Chap 4...

This is delightful to read. Nicholas is getting introduced to all sorts of magical creatures and fixtures. It looks like being the grounds keeper can be an exciting and rewarding job--if all the magical elements approve.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I enjoyed this chapter, YM. Your dialogue is fun to read. I can 'hear' these two standing there discussing all that is happening. I love the idea of the pink armadillo. What I really like about these chapters is the length--not too long, not too short. Thanks for sharing. Respectfully with Love and Admiration, Jan.
