"Does anyone know where Mariana is?" 

Asked the peeved Nando, who was itching to go.

 "It's 12noon. Is Mariana walking, driving or flying to work. Do we have to send out a search and rescue party to find her, again?” added the ranting Nando questioningly.

It was noon and no one could say the whereabouts of Mariana.

 "She called to say she was running late. But that was 2 days ago", said Asher.

 Suddenly Officer Torres hung up the phone and shouted

"THE THREE SEARCH-AND-FIND-PARTIES JUST TEXT ME THEIR REPORTS!!"

"So, Torres, what's the good news?" Inquired Nando.

"There IS good news!! I am happy to report that her son, Heisenberg, confirms he was with Mariana two days ago. He's not exactly certain but the last time he caught sight of his mom she was running out the door and stammering,

 "Oh Shit! I am so late! Shit! Shit!"  And kept saying, "I am so F@@#g late! OH SHIT!!"

  Then she flew running out the backdoor.  The next thing he saw was her silhouette streaking down the driveway at the speed of sound. The last thing he recalled yelling as she zipped by was,

"Don't break any laws!"

But she was uncertain of both her exact speed and the highway she was on. She told herself she would send him a text. She blew him a kiss and indicated she would call him soon.

 "But that was Tuesday" Heisenberg reported in his statements in Officer Torres's 1st-Search-and-Find-Party Report. The report continued:

"On Tuesday, that is, two days ago, a traffic cop reported that Li’l Red was riding in the front seat of Ms. Tsunyak's Rocket Powered Humvee when he stopped them", said her son.


"Do you know where they were headed?" inquired Torres.

Heisenberg recalled Li’l Red Riding Hoody returning his phone call to say Mariana dropped her off at her grandma's yesterday; all three enjoyed a picnic that afternoon then both her and grandma bid her good bye and a safe journey home. The last time Li'l Red saw her was last evening when

 "Girlfriend streaked by the chocolate factory and blew down the highway, blowing off my red hoody"

  Li'l Red Riding Hoody added that

"Except for me and my boyfriends, Wolverine, 2-Pak, and Biggie, no one else was at grandmas"

"Is there more news?" Nando asked Torres, again. Torres was somber, and replied:

"There is bad news and, I am sorry to say, worser news"

 “‘worser news?' is that even a word?", Nando wondered to himself.

"The bad news is that she left Li’l Red yesterday and no one has heard a word since!" Officer Torres was exasperated.

"What's the worser news, Officer Torres?", Nando asked, curiously.

"I can't go to Micky Dees for anybody tonight.

Brace yourself, Nando:   

There will be NO MCNUGGETS  TONIGHT!". . .
 

 

"I have new news! I am from The 3rd-Search-and-Find-Party", Officer Marji said breathlessly. He continued:

"Ms. Tsunyak was bolting at lightening speeds down The Turnpike when she was clocked on radar by a State Trooper galloping and rocketing the wrong way down a one way street.  However, as the Trooper approached the Humvee, according to The State Trooper,

'The driver was seen fleeing the scene'

"The State Trooper said he found a dozen donuts in the Humvee's backseat which, he claimed,

'I secured as evidence'"

 "She was found safe and sound this morning at The Snow White Bed & and Breakfast Inn on Jorelemon Street".

“Officer Marji . . . ?”

“Yes, Officer Torres?”

“What happened to My 2^nd-Search-and-Find-Party?”

“They were told to ‘SCRAM-AND-GET-LOST’”

 Officer Torres announced:

"Our Mariana is alive and doing well. She is still Smoking Hot and doing Pot. she is recuperating at home with family. She sends her love.

Oh, Nando:

She wants to know if you could work for her six days next week, including Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and MLK..."
