which story do you pick first?
Wonder woman at the NEW U saloon
Diana walked in the door of her apartment and tossed the mail on her coffee table. She proceeded to kick her shoes off and drop heavily on to the couch. Between her government job and her superhero career she was wore out.
“I need some time off.” She said, ” Thank the gods it finally Friday!”
She had been looking forward to this all day; with the week she just had she barely got to slow down for five minutes since last Saturday. But now it was over, her work promised not to call her all weekend and she was off call for the justice league.
‘A weekend all to me! I won’t know what to do with myself, but I’m sure I’ll find something.’ She thought as she smiled.
‘Maybe I’ll check out a few museums or the zoo.’ She thought. She also thought about going home to Paradise Island, but ruled that out. ‘If I go there,’ She thought, ‘someone will wind up having trouble with somebody and will need rescuing from something. And of course I’ll have to be the one doing the rescuing. I spent all last weekend foiling the cheetah’s latest scheme, and I didn’t even catch her. I’m really not looking to spend another one chasing someone else around.’
As she sat there thinking about what to do she noticed a bright pink envelope mixed in with the mail. She bent over and brushed the bills off of it and picked it up.
NEW U SALON, FREE HAIR STYLING IF YOU HAVE THE WINNING LETTER!! She read. ‘Another scam I’ll bet, probably just a coupon for 10% off their over priced hair cuts.’ she thought as she opened it.
As she opened the envelope she caught a whiff of a flowery perfume. As she took a deep breath of it her senses seemed to tingle. “Wow that’s some potent stuff.” She said as she pulled the letter out.
‘Congratulations you are a winner’, it said, and then it gave a phone number and a verification number. ‘Call this number right away and set up your free appointment!’
‘Yes,’ She thought ‘I should call right away.’
If she had not been so tired she might have noticed that she was following the suggestion on the letter a little to obediently, but in her current state she just reached for the phone and dialed the number.
“New U Salon, how may I help you?” The voice on the other end said.
“Hi, my name is Diana Prince and I received a letter saying I won a free hair styling. I would like to set up an appointment for this weekend if you have any openings.”
“Well actually we just had a cancellation for this evening, could you be here about 6:30? We are in the Hawthorne mall on 23rd street.”
She looked as the clock and saw that it was almost 6:00. The mall was only a couple of blocks away; she could walk and still make it easily. “Yes, I believe I can just walk and be there in time”
“Great I’ll see you shortly then, and don’t forget to bring the letter. Good bye for now.”
Janice at the salon turned and said, “she’s on her way, are you ready Suzy?”
“All set, she doesn’t stand a chance.” Suzy said with a grin.
“Don’t get too cocky, she is a very strong willed individual it won’t be easy.”
“Don’t worry I’m ready for her. I mixed the chemicals extra strong just for her.”
“Ok but be careful, I would hate to see what would happen if she found out what we are up to.” Janice said gravely.
