The Great Graemlin Escape Part 3
Gathering her bearings, Lori wiped her tears away, knowing that she needed to find a way to bring the lost graemlins back home. She gently removed the sunglasses from the *cool* graemlin and wiped the moisture away with a corner of her blouse. She squeezed the hand of the *eek* graemlin to try and reassure him that everything would work out fine. She knew that somehow we could find a way to bring everyone back home if we all thought about it together.
Lori spoke softly, in her heart broken voice and said "We need to find a way to get a message to our fair lady Julie". "She will know what to do."
Trying to ease the pain of her graemlin friends she continued..."Julie knows that we cannot have our graemlin brothers and sisters roaming around the cyber unknown, as anything could happen to them out there." "They are as much a friend to her as we are and I know she will not let us down."
This seemed to soothe the remaining graemlins with the exception of the *mad* graemlin who barked "I don't see what all the fuss is about! Let them suffer out there, they are the ones that chose to leave".
Lori ignored the *mad* graemlin and continued to speak softly to the others. She asked if anyone of them had any advice as to which path we should take in order to get a message to fair Julie.
The *confused* graemlin which was sitting to her left, could offer no advice much to her dismay as she had called upon him so many times in the past to help her out. The *embarrassed* graemlin couldn't muster up the courage to even speak.
After many hours of discussion and hand holding, the only thing that was determined was that we could no longer be sad...as the *sad* gramelin had escaped, nor could we roar with laughter as the *rofl* gramelin had gone with all the other defectors and that the the *evil* graemlin had taken them with him.
We all sunk back into a depression, nearing tears again as we had not found a way to let our fair Julie know how worried we were about our brothers and sisters.
As we started to tear up again, a special woman, Michelle entered our cyber circle. Michelle told us she understood how we felt and that she missed her little graemlin friends too. She tried to console us but then began to weep with us. Her heart felt sentiments brought comfort to most, except for the *mad* graemlin.
All the while, watching from the other corner, was the snickering graemlin free-drew, which no one had noticed....
