Part 2: A life in El Marrow

Manny hopped into his car. He told the driver where he wanted to go. The driver sped off with his passenger.

The car was pretty slow, as it hadn't had a tune up for two years now. And it made a popping sound every five minutes. But eventually he came to the land of the living. He walked in and found the client's package. Empty. What the heck. Where in the land of the living was he? Manny walked around for a few minutes he saw a package on the street. He walked up to the package. He opened it. And out came Dono Hertias.

Manny came storming into Domino Hurley's office who had just given a Number Nine ticket to Manny's client.

"You ass sucking, lowlife, bast..."

"Manny, Manny, stop! I took him for a very good reason."

"What in caramba was that reason?" Manny asked.

"He's gonna get me on a headstart outta here."

"Why you scum sucking son of a .............."

Don Copal could hear Manny and Domino fighting. As soon as he did,

he ran to the two scrapping skells.

"What, in the name of Rubacava is going on here?" he asked, as he saw Manny holding Domino by the neck out of the window.

"A little relocation," said Manny.

"Relocation of what? Domino?"

"Exactly!" Manny replied.

"Break it up, you two funnybones. Now what happened here?"

"Dom stole my client."

"Dommy!!!" Don screamed. "In my office!!!! Now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Dom walked out of the room.

Manny gave Dono his walking stick. Dono walked out. Manny sat back in his chair.

Dom had stolen a good chance of getting out of here, and now he was going to pay. Manny walked into Dom's office. He searched through his desks. Manny found a gun. He gasped. He threw the gun out the window. He heard a click. Dom was coming back. Manny climbed out the window. He walked across the ledge, out of Dom's sight. And into Don Copal's.

***

Manny paced around the room of his cell. Don had stuck him in there when he had seen him on the ledge. He heard footsteps. It was the company shrink. Manny got ready to scream, "I'm not psycho!!!!!!!!!!!!" The door opened. But it wasn't the shrink. It was a man dressed in army uniform.

"Who are you?" Manny asked.

"The leader of the L.S.A." the man replied. "Come with me."

Manny shrugged. What the heck. This couldn't do any harm. So he walked out and followed the strange man.
