- About the Author
Intrigued ‘beyond belief’ © ___________ contrived to stay another day at the Castle by saying that his car still wouldn’t start. He spent the day with Jane who, having been ordered by her master (Chaikins) not to mention her sister, did not and instead passed the time walking ___________ (the bloke from the video shop) around the Rose Garden and making small talk in Latin, French and Greek as was the fashion at that time.
By midnight _____________ (the bloke from the video shop) was no closer to working out what the fuck was going on and he went to bed in a mood of confusion. An hour later he was woken (as he had been the night before) by the most appalling of shouts and screams which, on investigation, looked for all the world as though the gorgeous Jane with whom he had passed the day most refinedly was being forcibly enjoyed up the arse by a large priest or Cardinal while a few buxom women in neo-Nazi uniforms (blah blah) held her down. Pressing his eye close to the keyhole ___________ was so engrossed in what he saw that a noise behind him failed to register.
When Chaken’s wife ___________ tapped _____________ (from the video shop) on the shoulder he jumped up at once and quickly made an excuse about looking for a toilet and getting lost. Chaken’s wife _________ told him where the bog was and excused herself, lighting her own way down the corridor with a long and unnecessary candle.
The bloke from the video shop (____________), made as if to go to the bog and then returned to his vantage point and watched ‘Jane’ getting used horribly in several more ways. After an hour _________ could bear it no longer and, utilising his memory of the House and its gardens, contrived to find a route into the chamber wherein ‘Jane’ was getting abused in this way. His route took him over rooftops, through windows, into ventilation ducts etc and left him, finally concealed behind an old type of curtain made from psychedelic curtain material (called an Arras) in the same room as ‘Jane’ whose cries of pain were pretty well drowned out by the groans of satisfaction coming from a whole sports team what had arrived as if this were entertainment laid on for them by Charkin.
Only when ‘Jane’s’ torment was finished and she lay tired on her bed did ______________, the bloke from the video shop reveal himself and implore her to speak with him about what was going on. Of course ‘Jane’ who was really Elizabeth knew nothing of ___________ from the video shop and thought at first his presence in the room was probably yet another cruel and unusual idea dreamed up by the insane Cherkin. In the end tho, after much talking, everything got cleared up, the bloke from the video shop got a tearful embrace and together he and Elizabeth hatched an escape plan to rescue her of the horror she had too long endure.
