Messed With the Wrong Dude!; a Baby Man tale!A Story by Michael StevensA Baby Man tale! King Gorpher slide silently through the dark, stormy night like a hot ghost through butter. He'd recently got out of prison and had been anxiously looking forward to resuming his chosen profession, ripping off rich b******s to improve his monetary status.
He'd had
this house under surveillance for awhile now, after seeing a black BMW pull
into the garage. After the
remotely-controlled garage door had closed, and after he'd watched as the lights
on the shades covering what he'd decided was the main bedroom went out about an
hour ago, he was going in.
His
watch read '2.15' as he quietly approached the side window he'd already decided
would be his access point, and upon arrival, he listened carefully for any
noise coming from inside the house; all was silent and he smiled to himself and
cut a small piece out of one corner, reached in, and unlocked it. Then he slid the window up until there was
enough room for him to slither through and soon was standing in the silent,
dark room. He pulled out a penlight
flashlight and snapped it on, shining it around himself, revealing what looked
to be a spare bedroom with not much worth stealing. He opened the door a crack and shined the
beam of light down the hall. There,
straight ahead was the living room. All
was still silent as he crept from the room and down the hall as quietly as he
could.
Paintings
that looked expensive and plenty of nice stuff that was probably worth plenty
were caught in the beam's narrow arc of light.
He mentally rubbed his hand together and crossed the room to begin
stealing things. He was reaching as high
as he could to take down an expensive-looking gold clock and was already
figuring what it may be worth when a steely voice scared the s**t out of him,
"Freeze, mother f****r!"
He
panicked and slowly turned his head, expecting to be confronted by a full grown
adult, but amazingly, saw only a small baby holding a big gun. The baby had stubble on his face, and as King
watched, the baby grabbed a pack of cigarettes from a coffee table, shook one
loose, stabbed it into his face unlit and added,
"F*****g doctor told me I should quit; but I must have a major
sucking reflex; force of habit!"
King
looked around for his parents but saw none, "Where's your mommy and daddy
little fella?"
"Mommy
and daddy? Maybe if I was 9 months or
so, but I'm 38, and I'm if I hear one more 'why, you're just a baby!' comment
I'm going to projectile-spew on my shoes!
Look, dick-wad, it's a glandular problem, okay a*s wipe?", and as the
agitated baby man was waving the gun around dangerously, King replied,
"Sure, sure, now be a good baby--err--fella and stop aiming that
thing at me."
Shorty
Sandoval spit on the floor, scratched himself in a most unladylike fashion with
his non-gun hand and replied, "I'll tell you what I'm going to do; I'll
lower the gun and give you a chance; I'll let you go if you can beat me in a
fist fight."
King
couldn't believe it; fight a baby? He
knew he'd win that easy, as look how much of an advantage he would have. "Okay little guy, you're shitting me,
right? Look at you, and then look at
m---". Suddenly, he felt like
singing soprano as the little munchkin teed off on his nuts As he involuntarily bent at the waist from
the unexpected punch, he was straitened up from a ringing blow to the face and
saw stars, then nothing.
******
"Chow time!" yelled the pot bellied jail guard as King began
his first evening behind bars. He had
struggled and struggled to remember what had happened but to no avail. He'd come to and the first thing he saw was
the leering face of a policeman; a chuckling policeman. He remembered keeping surveillance on a
house, but beyond that, there was a big blank spot where his memory should
be. As he was marched in handcuffs out
to the waiting squad car he heard all the policemen laughing. He just couldn't understand it, or remember
what had happened.
He
watched with distaste as a big mound of steaming s**t was dropped on his plate. The chef, a huge dude with tattoos covering
his arms chuckled and said,
"Sorry,
I know you'd prefer strained peas but this chipped beef will have to do!"
and he guffawed mightily, like he'd just told the funniest joke ever uttered by
man.
King stared
at him, Tattoo Freak Arms met his gaze without flinching, and King decided
discretion was the better part of valor and just waked away. He spotted a empty chair sitting at an empty
table and sat down and started running his fork through the liquefied s**t on
his plate and decided he'd just have coffee.
He walked up to where a big urn of the stuff sat and poured himself a
cup. Then he made his way back and
slumped down in his chair. He was
ravenous but there was no way he'd eat the crap called food in this place. Five years of this? As he sat and sipped his coffee he gradually
became tuned in to the conversations his fellow prisoners were having around
him.
"...and he got lit up by about a 9 month old!" he heard,
followed by waves of heavy laughter coming from all the inmates sneaking looks
at him. Man, the next five years was
going to be hell!
