As the hovercar glides through the neon night, Terry takes a surprising right turn, leaving behind the electric glow of downtown signage and insomnia. The path ahead grows darker still, until finally Terry lands the vehicle by the zoo. He turns to face you riding beside him.

"Yo, we need to break into the zoo tonight," Terry pulls down his shades just enough to show you his dead serious stare. "I heard rumor of a levitating penguin drooling drops of blood down onto the zoo like they was breadcrumbs. I think it got turned!" He pushes his shades back up his nose.

"Problem with zoos is they never expect the unexpected. They didn't think to plan for a penguin being able to fly. But see ol' Terry knows better. He doesn't take chances." He smirks. "The zoo staff's so far in over their heads, they don't even know!" He laughs. "This is a job for us."

"The zookeepers will never believe they got a vampire penguin on their hands. Trust me, I got experience in this field. People always in denial about vamps! If they didn't call me first, then either they won't believe it, or worst case scenario, they're in on it. So, we gotta sneak in. I just hope they didn't dress up the animals for Halloween!"

He glances over his shoulder. "Did you come prepared? If not, see what you can find in back. There should be a silver dagger and one killer garlic-roast kabob back there, at least." He taps his glasses. "And a spare pair of brights if you need 'em." He gets out of the hovercar and signals you to follow when ready as he moon-waltzes his way to the base of the wall surrounding the zoo.

"That penguin could be bitin' on other animals in there, turnin' them into vampires—his own undead army! Point being: we don't have time to fool around!"

"To get inside, we gotta get past the wall somehow. Here's the plan. First, I'm gonna hurl you up onto the wall," he says, flexing his biceps, "unless you can fly."

"Once you're up there, I'll swing the end of my light-whip up so you can grab it." He pulls it out, its electric glow a lamp in the darkness. "I promise not to shock ya!" He laughs and cracks the light-whip against the pavement, its electric arc leaving a glowing streak.

"Finally, when I tell you to pull, you gonna pull! You gonna pull with ALL yo might!" He pauses and looks at you, awaiting a response. "Unless you got some better idea?"
