That Man's Making a Monkey Out of You

Post by Simon Ward »

Whistling as he moved Simon Cross made his way into Alpha Towers. From there he punched in the 18th floor. The elevator did what it was programmed to do. He was wearing nondescript clothes, just some black jeans, a white-t-shirt and a black hoodie, and a gym bag over his shoulder. A hat was on top of his head. When the elevator came to a stop he was there. Turned a corner and he was gone. No cameras caught where he went. The beauty of teleportation.

Before long he was making his way through the next few floors. Alpha Towers had twenty floors, plus aditional height due to maintenance places and the roof itself. Thanks other skills Simon didn't show up on camera. When he was nearing the roof the man pulled out a Barbie Doll from his bag. Her skirt was ready to his specifications.

A few moments later what people saw was someone dressed as a gorilla costume on the Alpha Towers roof. In his hand was a Barbie Doll. In the gym bag rested a stereo that was playing the original score to King Kong. Simon, the man in the gorilla costume, began yelling and making noises like a very pissed off King Kong. Yes, the Barbie doll had the exact same outfit, and was even painted in grays, it was like the movie was ripped from the film strip and placed into life just not to proper scale.

Before long he had drawn a crowd of onlookers on the street. Spotlights came on him too. This was good. Lingering in the shadows was his spirit thrall. Sometimes the vampire switched views between his own and the spirit. Most figured this to be an elaborate Halloween prank. They were pretty right. It was an elaborate Halloween dare.

The spirit gave Simon an idea of where to throw his where to throw the candy in the hand not possessing Barbie. Suddenly banana flavored taffy, fruit chews and the like were being flung at the adults the spirit was helping him target. No children were to be harmed in Kong's wrath.

Candy Carnage ensued as adults were pelted with high velocity thrown candy and it was pelting them like rubber bullets, and projectile bean bags. His small stereo played the theme on a loop and he managed to rig the last few floor intercoms with the same song. Over and over the theme played as Kong threw out nineteen pieces of banana candy. When that was done he tossed down nineteen more just because. Like he said the previous night "No dare was too stupid."
