Rainbow in the Dark

Just as I was re-entering Estacada, a weird “flash” lit up the sky. I put flash in quotes because I doubt it was actually visible to humans. I say this since we were driving past a few when the entire sky turned an ugly purple for about two seconds and then went back to normal and none of them so much as even glanced up.

“Interesting,” Rosanna murmured.

Then she pulled this little bag out and started digging through it. I knew it was a special bag when she pulled out a shotgun and a half dozen bottles that I at first thought were wine. You know those bottles that come with the wicker basket woven around the bottom? You usually get them in Italian places. You always take the bottle home and then use it for a candle holder. Now you know the ones I’m talking about, don’t you?

“What was that?” Leave it to me to ask the super-obvious question.

“I believe that was a message for you,” Rosanna continued to dig through her bag. I almost expected her to climb inside the damn thing.

“It was a message?”

“Somebody is in danger and needs you desperately if I read it correctly.”

Now I was really curious. There is not really anybody who knows me, much less one that would call me for help in any case.

Rosanna pulled out these weird goggles and slipped them on. She stuck her hand out the window and looked up. Then she started whispering a bunch of stuff that I am pretty sure was Latin.

“Oh yeah, it’s for you alright.”

“Does it say who it is from?”

“No, nothing like that,” Rosanna said as she took off her goggles and tossed them back into the bag. “But whoever it is has an urgent need for you to help them right away.”

“Where do I go? Does it at least say that?”

“Messages like this only come from graveyards.”

“Swell.”

Rosanna had to direct me to the graveyard. However, once we were just a few blocks away, she had me stop the car.

“This is where I get out, Ava.”

“But what if I need your help?”

She laughed! I didn’t see what was so damn funny. I waited for a moment, thinking that once she was done with her laughter, she would respond to my question. Instead, she simply kept laughing as she walked away.

I pulled up to the graveyard and just sat in my car. For some reason, my precious Corvette was not bringing me any comfort. I thumbed through a few songs until I came to the song Suite Sister Mary. I may piss a few people off, but those of you who have come to know me will already realize that I don’t give a rat’s puckered patootie. I think that the Operation: Mindcrime album rivals Pink Floyd’s The Wall. And as far as an in depth story, it isn’t even close.

This particular song is one that I used to like to listen to when I was in a funk. For one, Geoff Tate is at his multi-octave register best in this baby.
