Hurrying to Nora's house, Pito called all his llama friends and called an emergency meeting of the Tired of Nora's Bossiness Support Group. That was the original name of the Llama Retribution Squad.
The llamas assembled in front of Nora's house, much like you're assembling in this auditorium. They listened to the problem and then snorted. They thought Pito was calling them together to complain about something Nora did.
It was while they were arguing over who's turn it was to bring the wheat grass milkshakes, it was totally Paco's turn, that they heard a noise coming from the bushes.
Nora suddenly appeared in the brush and she yelled at Pito, "Hey you stupid llama! Why did you leave me in the ditch?"
Pito looked confused. He hadn't left Nora in the ditch, she'd been gone.
He held his injured foot with one of his good feet and looked at Nora. Something about her looked different, but he couldn't quite figure it out.
"You were gone," Pito finally said.
"I was hiding from the cute duckling," Nora told him. "He looked dangerous."
Pito frowned. "Oh. Well, I'm glad you made it home safe."
"Me too," Nora said, but Pito noticed her mouth didn't move when she spoke. And while her face looked like it always did, her body was white, not the golden it normally was.
Before he could ask about it though, Nora shouted to the rest of the llamas, "Who wants a wheat grass milkshake?"
In the chaos of the moment, she disappeared into the house with the herd.
Until next time, be ever attentive!

Orientation, Part 3
Pito hurried Nora from the restaurant, somehow managed to get her on his motorcycle, and screeched out of the parking lot. He was torn, he knew he should follow the duckling and get to the Evil Emperoress Elsie, but he also knew he needed to get Nora to safety before she found out who was behind the attack and made things worse by going to talk to Elsie.
He was certain getting Nora home was the best idea. Once there he could call his fellow llamas and they could figure out what to do.
"Hey Pito, what's with the grocery list?" Nora asked suddenly.
"What list?" Pito asked, hoping she didn't have Elsie's list.
"This one," Nora said as she shoved it in front of Pito's face.
Unfortunately, Pito was still driving his motorcycle and when she shoved the paper in his face, he began to swerve. He could hear a semi coming at them and just as Nora screamed he swerved back into his own lane, over the edge, and into a ditch.
When he looked up, the duckling was standing there. Laughing.
Pito was mad. He'd crashed his motorcycle and had hit his foot on a rock. Now his toe was hurting. A lot. And the duckling laughed.
"Hey, that's not funny. I hurt my toe," Pito yelled up at him.
"Oh, sorry," the duckling called back. "Nora was just funny flailing like that."
Pito shrugged in agreement. He turned to help Nora from the ditch, but...
SHE WAS GONE!!!
Tune in next time! Until then, be ever attentive!
