| Soap Sins Monday, April 9, 2012 CHAPTER 29 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. LINK ONLY! GOTCHA! Previously on SOAP SINS - It was BILL, her co-star who was supposed to have died earlier that day. He moved his pale lips, like he was trying to tell her something. - Dakota gasped in shock and fell to the floor with a thud ...! The story now continues ... - When Dakota opened her eyes, she wasn't sure if she was dreaming. Bill's face hovered over her. "Am I dead?" she whispered. - He shook his head and then silently started to unbutton his shirt. - Dakota sat up. "Really, Bill. If you're going to haunt me, I'd rather you do it with your clothes on!" - He shook his head without saying a word again, and indicated the secret mini-microphone attached to his chest. He was wired! - Dakota nodded. This was Bill in the flesh. Only a living man would be wearing a wire and only a living man would be having such a bad hair day. The rain had slicked it across his forehead like an old mop. She stood up and glanced around the room. They were alone, so whoever was listening to his wire must have been nearby, but not in her house. In the house there were just three of them - Bill, Nick, and herself. She took a step toward him and mouthed her words without saying them, so that no one would hear. - "Are you working undercover? Is that why your death was faked?" - Bill mouthed back to her that there was no time to explain and warned her to be careful, for she was in danger. He stepped behind a curtain when Nick's whistling and footsteps became louder and louder until ... - "Did you find the champagne?" she casually asked. - Nick held up the bottle and then suddenly frowned. "You look like you've seen a ghost." - Just then someone started to furiously ring the doorbell. Nick grinned. "Aha, the guest of honor has arrived! Let him in, darling!" - "Aren't you going to hide somewhere?" - "Not this time. This time we're going to get it all out in the open." - Dakota stepped back into her shoes and opened the door. She forced a smile as Tony the mobster entered in his black trench coat. He kissed her hand and said he hoped to see more of her shortly. Dakota felt ill and shut the door. The thug hadn't even removed his coat when Nick decided to step forward and reveal himself. - "Care for a glass of champagne, old boy?" - Dakota had no idea what Nick was trying to do, but she was very glad that Bill was hiding behind a curtain recording the entire exchange. She just wished she knew who the clear and present danger was - Tony or Nick - or both? - The mobster muttered something in Italian under his breath. - Nick placed the bottle of champagne on a marble topped corner table. "You were responsible for making my plane crash in Tibet." - The mobster had already been drinking and the promise of a stunning actress who was now with another man made his blood boil, unleashing his notorious temper. "I'll kill you a second time if you don't scram!" - Nick scoffed. "I know you've got a goon waiting in your car and as soon as you give him the signal he'll come in here and finish me off, so at least extend me the courtesy of telling me how you did it first." - The mobster shrugged his shoulders. "Dunno and don't care. We paid off an Asian gangster to do the job. Looks like I'll be getting a refund." - Bill emerged, his shirt now buttoned. Nick chuckled. "Gotcha! Now that it's been caught on tape, Tony the terrible will be going away for a looooong time! By the way, I'm sure the L.A.P.D. apprehended your goon the moment you came in, so there's nothing left to do but give yourself up." - The wiseguy's hoodlum instincts took over and he reached for the semi-automatic in his coat pocket just as Nick reached for his own weapon and Bill reached for the flask of scotch tucked in the back of his pants. Dakota was faster than all three men. She grabbed the champagne bottle from the marble topped table, spun on her toes, and unceremoniously smashed it over the mobster's thick skull. He staggered back and fell into the arms of the police officers that had stormed in. Tony the terrible's reign of mob terror had come to an end. Bill unbuttoned his shirt again and handed over the wire. Nick gave him a pat on the back. Dakota was elated both men were alive for real, but it irked her that they had not included her in the undercover operation ... - Her phone rang. It was Chip the producer. He sounded as hyper as a man who had consumed ten cups of cheap studio coffee. "I've got big news." - Dakota replied so did she. Nick and Bill were both alive. - Chip didn't miss a beat. "The network is about to make a major announcement about the show. I'm calling an emergency meeting first thing tomorrow morning. Oh. And bring Bill too, now that's he's back from the dead. Trust me, this is HUGE ...!" |
