Renfield At The World Cup In South Africa

Renfield At The World Cup In South Africa

A chapter in my vampire novel

The evil shapeshifting hamster/human Renfield R. Renfield was taking in the games at the World Cup FIFA tournament in South Africa.

Seated in the stadium next to him was the genetically cloned concert pianist (cloned from the DNA of composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, California mass murderer Charles Manson and British actor Alan Rickman) Amadeus Emanon.

"I keep hearing the sound of swarms of bees but I don't see any bees," Amadeus remarked.

"You're hearing the sounds of people blowing the vuvuzela," Renfield explained.

"Oh," said Amadeus.

Amadeus noticed Renfield pounding away on his laptop ferociously.

"What are you doing?" Amadeus asked.

"Setting some of the boss' satellites into place," Renfield replied.

Renfield and Amadeus' boss was the London-based ancient Egyptian vampire Set.

"In place for what?" Amadeus asked.

"Well, remember how in the fourth Harry Potter book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," Renfield explained, "how Harry and his friends took a trip to the Quidditch World Cup and how some Death Eaters stormed the grounds and how Voldemort's Dark Mark appeared in the sky. I thought it would be pretty cool if we can get the satellites to send down some holographic images of Death Eaters and Voldemort's Dark Mark while some of the big games are about to start. It will be so cool."

"Wouldn't that send people into a panic? Couldn't there be a stampede to the exits and whole bunches of people could end up being killed?" Amadeus queried.

"That is the plan," Renfield grinned.

"To what end?" Amadeus asked.

"For general disorder and chaos," Renfield finished sending an email to a member of the Republican right in the U.S. saying that Barack Obama was the incarnation of Voldemort and an email to a member of the Democratic left saying that Rush Limbaugh was the incarnation of Voldemort.

To be continued.
