The Magic Shop

Alone In The Bedroom

Matt escorts me into the bedroom, and closes the door. He leans back against the closed bathroom door frame, sips his drink, and gestures toward a crystal sculpture on the dressing table.

"How about demonstrating your device on that thing," Matt suggests.

I smile. I gave Danny that sculpture and I bet that bastard knows it. I pull out the device, check the settings, start to aim it at the sculpture, then I suddenly turn.

At the same instant, the door to the tiny bathroom swings outward knocking Matt headlong into the dressing table. A 6 foot drunken Nordic blond staggers out and falls on to the bed. He mumbles, "Sorry about the mess."

I press the firing button, and turn back in horror to see that the shower curtain has been replaced by a mirrored enclosure. I see my reflection, the shower enclosure quivers and buckles, and then this a blinding flash of light. I am momentarily blinded.

What do you do now?
