Mischief Monday - In the darkest of nights

The setting: 
Sunday night, almost 10 pm. It is lightly raining, so it is very, very dark out.
The players:
The Man who is in bare feet
The Lady who is in flip-flops
Hailey who is stressed because the threat of a storm has been in the air since 6 pm

I feel no shame

Zaphod

The event:
Phod rain to the well to mark it.
Hailey was barely off the porch because she was scared and because she wanted to look for toads.
Suddenly, Phod takes off, Lee quickly follows. Barefooted Man and flipflopped Lady try to keep up, but it is so dark and wet they can't. They half laugh half curse as they try and run into the pitch dark in the rain. Soon the dogs are lost in the bush.
Lady runs back to the house to grab a flashlight. Man is praying it is anything but a skunk or a nasty racoon.
By the time Lady gets back, Phod has returned. Lady gives Man the flashlight, and takes Phod to the house. She grabs another flashlight, prepared to go into the bush in her flip flops. Fortunately Man had Lee by the time she got back. So up to the house they all went.

I am just mad I got caught

The consequence:
A tongue lashing and told to look shameful.  Thankful everyone was safe and sound and there wasn't a skunk!

What a way to end the weekend!
