Don't Mess With The Best!

[Kristine_ES]

The fight was billed as The Rumble in the Midwest—Grudge Match of the Century!  Spirits were high, the bookies were hand over fist and all odds were on the East Coast Witches.  The West Coast Witches, full of grudge, piss, vinegar, and their usual arsenal were headed to Kansas, ready to battle the East Coast bitches, losers—posers!  Kansas never knew what hit it when it was all over, and the meteorologists stuck to their script and reported the unusual tremors, UFOs, mutilated cattle, scorched earth and weeping families wasn’t out of the ordinary for this time of year, probably due to the Earth’s flight through a newly discovered meteor belt. The East Coast Witches learned the hard way not to gloat, and quickly rued their witchy graffiti and a lively parade. Their sisters chanted far across the sea in English latitudes, cursing the East Coast covens, ripping the instincts from their veins so that daycare was the best job any of them could do for all eternity.

I love the bit about the mutilated cattle and scorched earth!

"Ripping the instincts from their veins" is worth a fave all by itself.

ha ha ha ha ha!!!!  This is excellent. Keep it up, girl.  Keep it up!

Best spook story of the season, bar none.  Original, fun, funny, wildly creative.  I think you should contact an agent about turning this one into a screenplay.  Gangsta witches reduced to child care?  A producer would be seeing $ signs, and I ain't even joking. 

PS--East Coast rules, punks!

What a great concept, Battle of The Witches.  love it.

[Angela]

Oh, how I laughed at the daycare line.  Truly, the whole final line was tremendous, especially the part about ripping instincts.  This was the high point of the afternoon.

I believe the parade was held in the Village and wish I was there. We heard the rumbling here in Bay Ridge. And hurrah for the East Coast Sisters, but too bad about the end result. The bookies I bet made a killing, but did they consider the "daycare" mess? By the way, I haven't thought about bookies since I left Newburgh years ago. Great Six Kristine; you've dealt an Ace on this one!
