A Conversation of the Events Into the Late DragonzFyre's Untimely Deceasement
(We pick up the discussion as it happened, after formal introductions
between the two parties has been completed)
ShadwWithoutTheO: I've been investigating the curious death of DragonzFyre... it seems no one is quite sure what exactly happened. I wanted to find out what killed him, but it would be simpler to list what didn't kill him.
Ziyall: Be careful! His shadw might come to haunt you!
ShadwWithoutTheO: Oh no... I'm afraid he's quite deceased. Oh if but it only weren't so!
<a pause>
ShadwWithoutTheO: I must apologize, the tears on my keyboard are making it difficult for me to type. It's become quite slippery.
Ziyall: Now that is an excuse for typo's I've net heard yet!
Ziyall: Hmmm ... have you witnessed this death??? I'm thinking that he's just in hiding.
ShadwWithoutTheO: The first witness (of the terribly tragedy) I interviewed said it was a boulder that caused his immediate dismissal.
ShadwWithoutTheO: My second witness (of the terribly tragedy) said it wasn't a boulder, but a runaway elevator.
ShadwWithoutTheO: And yet another witness claims there was a rapidly deflating hot air balloon that was to blame.
Ziyall: Hmmm ... so, he's tryed this before.
Ziyall: tried*
ShadwWithoutTheO: Be brave, dear Barb. You're crying too, I see?
Ziyall: Hmmmm ... so, he's been spotted many times after passing?
ShadwWithoutTheO: No, these reliable witnesses point to each of these mishaps taking place on the very same date, at the very same time... that hapless day we lost Our DragonzFyre. No one disagrees on that.
Ziyall: Hmmmmm ... maybe he was secretly the DragonzFyre Triplets?
ShadwWithoutTheO: I didn't mention the mad elephant stampede, did I? There was a circus in town that day as well ... It's almost too much to believe.
ShadwWithoutTheO: Excuse me while I shed my tears - and eat this delicious piece of smoked jerky.
Ziyall: That makes four independant eyewitness accounts! All different but claiming the same victim. There's only one plausible explaination ...
<dramatic pause>
Ziyall: Clones!!!! All these victims were clones I tell you!
ShadwWithoutTheO: No... you know as well as I do, brave Barb, that there was only one DragonzFyre...
<yet another dramatic pause>
ShadwWithoutTheO: ... but he's gone now.
Ziyall: One REAL DragonzFyre - and how many clones???
Ziyall: I still think it's a ruse to make us think he's gone... but, I can't possibly believe he realy is!
Ziyall: really*
ShadwWithoutTheO: Here, use my hankerchief to mop up your tear-stained keys.
ShadwWithoutTheO: I'm under the impression that indeed ALL these events happened simultaneously which resulted in his untimely demise.
Ziyall: Hmmmm, you should see how many more witnesses there are and what they say happened to him. It sounds like foul play to me.
ShadwWithoutTheO: At the moment of his death, his most beloved and faithful pet gave out a lod mournful howl and keeled over - dead.
ShadwWithoutTheO: loud*
ShadwWithoutTheO: May I have that hankerchief back?
ShadwWithoutTheO: Another story claims his most beloved and faithful pet stays at his graveside, never leaving, to this very day.
Ziyall: Oh my!
ShadwWithoutTheO: And that's not all. Within the hour of his untimely death, out of the blue a bolt of lightening struck and completely destroyed the DragonzFyre estate.
Ziyall: But, that still doesn't prove he's gone.
ShadwWithoutTheO: I know, I know.... All of us wish it weren't so, but its no use to be in denial any longer.
<a pause while the sound of sobs can be heard from both parties>
ShadwWithoutTheO: Excuse me, I need to wring out this hankerchief again.
Ziyall: Nothing has been proven as far as I can see
ShadwWithoutTheO: What more proof do you need? He's gone, brave Barb. It's normal to be in deep denial of such horrid truth.
Ziyall: Nope nope nope! <sound of a dainty foot stamping three times> Too many people saw too many different things...
ShadwWithoutTheO: But now I must bid you farewell, I must go ... for Dr. Abdula is most earnestly awaiting me.
Ziyall: I still say clones.
ShadwWithoutTheO: You know, all they ever recovered from the scene of the tragedy was a fingernail. There was very little left.
ShadwWithoutTheO: ... it had its own little coffin and everything at the memorial.
Ziyall: Still not enough proof for me. I won't believe it! Not for a moment, do you hear?!
ShadwWithoutTheO: Yes yes... but I really must be going. Farewell to you Madame, and give your charming ferrets a chocolate covered truffle for me.
Ziyall: Ack!
