Prologue 9 The Unveiling

Gus was confused as soon as he said it. "That was me, but it wasn't, I mean", he stammered, "I said it, but it wasn't from my mind!" Penney looked at Gus and reasoned, "that is a message, you barnacle brain!" She continued, because she HAD to. "The spirits need our help against Hillary, evidently, she has stabbed them in the back, and is in the drivers seat, ready to depose them". "Just ask, Vince Foster and the myriad of others", chimed Kenny. Pedopriest Peter made an upside down cross pattern and folded his hands in prayer. "Osteen, what do we do? How may we next serve thee?!" The Ouija board began to jump a bit- so Gus resumed with the feather. "S,h,e...o,n,l,y...l,i,s,t,e,n,s...t,o...B,l,a,c,k,R,o,c,k...

Gus looked his comrades over, this spirit has alot to say! "May I ask your name?"... "L, u, c, i,f,e,r"! Gus had a smug look on his face, "I knew it was one of Osteens boys!" Gus was impossible to live with now, having called that one, bingo!...
