INTERDICTION

Norgal laid down his reed pen and looked up at Visy. A smile formed on his lips and those large teeth were exposed causing Visy to wince.

“You know, little one, you may have the order backwards. Mira is just juicy enough and enticing enough that maybe that good old snark will have a good meal first and her ambition well be lost in Cezee’s gullet” his tone changed “and if she doesn’t shut up that smart old snark well probably spit her out only half chewed.” He slapped the desk with such force the nib of the reed pen stuck through the paper into the hand craved desk just missing Visy’s tail.

Visy was astonished. Never before had he seen Norgal in such a state. Norgal’s ears were pinned back and his eyes were frightening. It was hard to imagine this Norgal as the Head of the State. He grinned sheepishly and said “You got anymore cheese?”.

“And further more….” Norgal obviously wasn’t through. “Just where have you been? Mira’s clan is yelling about your visit and the scare you caused the little ones. Carl says you almost became eagle food. You look like you have been swimming in mud and tracking it in on my floor. And Cezee is hot on your tail and you lead her here.”

Visy reached up and rubbed his left ear, kind of nodded his head and sighed. “No more cheese huh? Didn’t know you liked it that much. I ran across some I think you would like a couple of days ago. It had little green flicks in it and it smelled pretty aged but was it tasty. Maybe I can get some for you ….. but it well cost ya a little bit….” He ducked under the table as a large container came flying by.

“Get out you little wretch. I think I’ll eat you myself, you little ground hugger. I’d tell Cezee were you live, if you new where you live, you little sneak. Just leave, leave, leave!” Another object came flying across the room.

“Now sir, you are a little upset and I have another appointment I need to go to but rest assured I can get some of that green cheese I told ya about. You’ll love it.” And little Visy winked and dashed for the door leaving Norgal with his head on the hand carved desk and both paws over his ears.

Just waiting for Mira to come.
