Allie yelled, "Just what the smeg is going on here! You let Wolfie
loose again, and the vending machines are shooting spam and communist
pamphlets."
Holly's face appeared on the screen. His voice cracked at the lack of
power, "Dr. Cerebrum's gone off his rocker. He thinks he's V.I. Lenin
and is trying to overthrow the Blue Dwarf."
"What?" Allie was regretting ever accepting the role of "Acting Captain."
"He wanted me to order AK-47's for his revolution. I tried to tell
him that there wasn't enough power for outside communications, but he
wouldn't listen. Besides, why would Lenin want AK-47's. They didn't
even have them back then. I tell you, if everyone had an I.Q. of
6000, it would make my job a whole lot easier, believe you me."
The door to the Drive Room opened up. In walked Vinny Soprano with a
cigar in his mouth. "Who are you?" Allie asked.
"Who am I? Who am I? I'm Vinny Soprano, the greatest act Vegas has
ever seen. That's who I am, sweet cheeks," he replied while blowing
smoke in Dren?s face. ?Hey, kid, why don?t you go grab me a dry
martini while hot pants and I have a little chat.? He turned to D2,
?And why don?t you help him find the olives?? The two saw this as an
opportunity to get while the gettin? was good and left.
?And what do you want?? Allie asked in a very perturbed voice.
?I?m here to book the greatest farewell concert that anything with
ears and a pulse has ever seen. The last ever concert of Vinny Soprano
will take place on this ship, and it?ll have the most fantastic finale
anyone has ever witnessed.?
Allie crossed her arms in defiance, ?I don?t think so. This is a JMC
ship and...?
Vinny?s voice became very cold and solid, ?Listen, toots, I don?t
think you understand. You don?t have a choice.? Efof, who was
piloting the ship, suddenly felt the controls jump from his hand. The
ship accelerated to full speed and changed course. ?Now, that has the
location taken care of. We need to talk perks.?
Efof was fighting with all his might to try and move the ship where he
wanted to go, ?It?s no good, I?ve lost control of the ship. It?s
piloting itself.?
?What about Holly?? Allie asked.
Holly appeared on the screen reading Interstellar Navigation in
One-hundred Easy Steps, ?Quite frankly, we?re screwed. I don?t have
enough power to take control. It?s all been diverted to the engines,
including gravity.? At that moment everyone on board the Blue Dwarf,
with the exception on Vinny Soprano, found themselves floating off the
floor. ?We?ve just gotta go where we go.?
?Like I was saying,? Vinny continued, ?I want my own dressing room,
the largest room on the ship should do. I demand the finest brandy
before every performance, and this is going to be no different. And a
couple of girls to doing some ?entertaining? themselves, if you know
what I mean. As a matter of fact, I?ll even give you the first honor,
if you play your cards right.?
?Where are you taking us?? Allie cried. She didn?t like the feeling
of being completely out of control, which is what she was.
?Just to where the concert is taking place. You see, I came up with
the most stupendous finale ever devised. I?m going to pilot a
dwarfstar class ship into the very center of a black hole so that it
gets crushed in the gravitational forces. It?ll be the greatest
spectacle of all time.?
?My god! What about the crew??
?They?ll go down in history as the first crew to ever see the inside
of a black hole as part of a farewell concert. Did I mention that I
get 90% of the door??
