Chapter #3
Dead Lines
by: Unknown
Leela munched the bag of Flarg Puffs and killed the last of her Slurm while watching an old re-run of The Scary Door. Leela's hand hit the bottom of the bag and she looked down at it puzzled. "Where did they all go?" she thought turning the bag upside down to try to find them, sadly she watched as only crumbs fell out and landed on her midsection which seemed oddly less toned, where once was a modest hard washboard stomach was nothing but a simple fleshy one, not fat of course but it looked like she'd never really taken much care in exercise.
"Wha-?" she looked at it puzzled "I need to do some crunches and fast, this is unacepta-" she was cut off as a commercial for Chocolate Fudge Covered Chocolate Fudge Bars.
"All the goodness of Fudge spread over a tasty layer of pure fudgey goodness!" The announcer voiced as an image of two biniki clad women poured chocolate all over more chocolate... and each other "Warningfudgemayormaynotcontainfiftypercentrecycledlard!" he quickly blurted out as the commercial ended. Leela's Mouth filled with saliva.
"Ooooh Chocolate fudge bars..." she said dreamily "No!" she shook her head, "I need to get back into shape and..." the image of all that chocolate forced it's way back into her mind "Maybe just one... or two." she thought.
Leela hurried into the kitchen sure there was a box or two left. Hermes was coming out of his office when Leela nearly ran him over.
"Watch it you lazy coconut!" Hermes scolded has he regained his balance.
"Hermes did you do the Planet Express supply shopping yet? Did you get any chocolate fudge bars?" Leela questioned him, almost ready to hop up and down like a giddy little girl.
"Ah yes" Hermes began "I bought one of those warehouse carton sized containers, you know buying in bulk saved money!" Hermes beamed "Saved 2 and a half cents per bar!".
"Oh great I'll just-" Leela started to say as she attempted to push past Hermes but found his arm holding her back.
"Now see here you crazy girl, you haven't been pulling your weight much around here and I'm getting sick and tired of it!" Hermes barked as he poked her stomach with a pen, Leela was surprised to feel it at all, usually she had a wall of toned mucsles to absorb the pokes.
"You are gonna clean out the stock room by this afternoon or I'm going to start spending your weekly snack budget on those desperately needed ship safety repairs!" Hermes finished before slaming his office door.... then opening it back up walking inside and slamming it again.
"Oh no..." Leela thought as she walked to the kitchen "What will I do without my Greasy Pork Bits... or my Butter Stuffed Eclairs!" she worried. "No, this is strange... I never needed those things in the real world... why would I be so concerned all of a sudden..? I'm getting too into this simulation, I need to get a grip on myself... maybe I should just end this thing altogether and-" Leela's train of thought was interrupted by an unusually shiney nickel on the floor.
"Oooh shiney!" Leela giggled as she snached it up. Leela's mind was losing focus, she was getting lost in the role this world had made for her. She hummed some tune she didn't really know and bopped her head from side to side not really thinking of anything as she stared up at the celing as she walked.
Leela came into the kitchen to see Amy at the table reading a magazine and the last bag of Flarg Puffs by her. Leela scowed at Amy for taking the last bag but then saw the crate of Chocolate Fudge Bars on the counter, it had "Count: 140" on the side, Leela licked her lips and greedily approched it.
"Hi Leela!" Amy greated her happily just now seeing her "Hey, I think Hermes is looking for you, he seemed like he wanted to tell you something."
"Oh no..." Leela thought "Yeah he wants me to clean the store room..." Leela said defeated.
"Ouch, rough." Amy said "It's half full of the jelly bean cargo you spoiled by letting it sit to close to the ships engines and making one big solid chunk of jelly."
Leela's sweet tooth sent her into a dream of candy treats as soon as Amy said jelly Beans. "I'd help ya but this magazine isn't going to read itself" Amy said looking back at her fashion mag and hoping Leela didn't beg for help.
"Now what..." Leela said looking at the chocolate fudge crate.
