Misery's Watch*

Amlan/Ezzy 'detour' to a snow-cabin where a fanatic 'fan' demands Amlan 'invent' a new 'image' for his 'iconic' patriot-Lady character, requiring (pure) wits!

A 'dark' Halloween-season fanfiction of the novel-adapted award-winning film Misery (James Caan). Thanks for reading,

AMLAN: I need this time-away from Lady-write(s) for patriotism-chess escape.

EZZY: We've earned it; as your consultant, I'd be happy to join you for retreat!

AMLAN: Cool...we'll take my rented white-auto and maybe find social-media IQ.

EZZY: Hey, writers/publishers/editors may find 'relief' in social-media game(s).

AMLAN: Cool (thanx).

Writer Amlan Satan and publisher/consultant Ezzy Harris sought this (earned) time-away from Mr. Satan's Lady-patriot comics-writing series, which had earned him the Pulitzer and sought a snow-lodge (Colorado) 'retreat' together which would result in the devastatingly 'hellish' detour (for eventual social-media culture commentary/Selfie-lore), which is what this Homeland (American) tale of eeriness concerns (for all!).

The snow-cabin in Colorado where Amlan/Ezzy were taken, by a horrid-witch living there (alone) for some-time, Hazel, was the rehab-center following the horrid car-crash in the snow-road(s) where Hazel discovered the vacationing pair. Well, Hazel had read Mr. Satan's Lady-patriot tales (online) and had become a (closet-secret) 'fanatic' and now kept the two (Amlan/Ezzy) 'prisoners' with the urgent-demand Amlan 'reinvent' the Lady-patriot 'avatar' to her (personal!) liking, and it would imprint onto Ezzy a photo-synthesis for the 'cage' of Homeland snow-road(s) bureaucracy (surely).

HAZEL: Oh, c'mon, Amlan/Ezzy; this is your oubliette-cabin 'chance' for discovery!

AMLAN: Why're you keeping us here, lest we 'invent' a new Lady-patriot face, lady?

EZZY: Mr. Satan's 'avatar' is a certain 'definition' (for fans/readers); he simply can't.

HAZEL: I (really) don't (really) care what Prince Amlan can/can't do (now); it must!

AMLAN: Look, Hazel; this is quite the 'offbeat' flattery, and maybe I'd write you?

EZZY: Yeah, we'd spin your 'visage' into some cyber-folk analogy for fan-paranoia.

HAZEL: Hmm...I dunno if that's the 'watch' I seek (here); dunno about 'other' ideas.

PUBLISHER_HOUSE: We really need someone in the cabins-area to investigate.

OFFICER CHARLIE: Look, we've no evidence/sign of any car-crash (whatsoever)!

PUBLISHER_HOUSE: We're simply helpless, and feel 'abandoned' by disappearance.

OFFICER CHARLIE: Alright, I'll do some road-tours (in snow); restore your media?

PUBLISHER_HOUSE: We've just so many calls (now) about Mr. Satan's plight(s).

OFFICER CHARLIE: Cool (alright).

Well, Officer Charlie found Hazel's cabin and discovered Amlan/Ezzy tied-up, next to a typewriter, on which Mr. Satan was supposed to 'reinvent' his iconic/laureled Lady-patriot 'avatar' for the eerie/fanatic witch living there. However, Hazel was armed, with a white silencer and shot the 'detective' in the head, and Ezzy began to weep, knowing her 'faded' memory of that white-auto (rented) Amlan procured for the original-conception of writer's retreat(s) was now simply (perhaps!) a ghost-image of lost hope(s).

AMLAN: Would you get us some 'fine' paper from the town-store, Hazel?
HAZEL: Oh, oh, you're deciding to seek this Lady-reinvention 'schema' of mine.

EZZY: Yeah, I'll take-care of Mr. Satan; he just wants fresh-paper for type.

HAZEL: Very cool...I'll speed-there, and return in 1 hour (ok).

AMLAN: Now she's gone...we crawl around the cabin (fast) to find her silencer.

EZZY: Excellence for Hell; we've got one 'chance' me thinks for witty-survival here.

AMLAN: Good (thanx).

INTERVIEW: You got-away, and now enjoy world-exchange (Indian) luchi-bread!
AMLAN: Ezzy was valiant; we got the gun in-time; shot Hazel; saved our lives.

INTERVIEW: No plans to 'reinvent' your Lady-avatar or write about your ordeal?
AMLAN: Some things...better left to bread (ha).

EZZY: I got you this (Swiss) 'transparent' watch, hon.

AMLAN: Wow...thanx (good for social media).

EZZY: We'd been delivered from a toy-woman of darkness (ok).

AMLAN: Maybe I'll write something about my Lady-patriot (escape from Inferno).

EZZY: Sounds like a 'ticking' lead.

AMLAN: Good.
