I think the "Run Like Hell" was implied

At times funny, at times suspenseful, at times a little gory, this one has it all. I had to read it twice and I have to say it has grown on me a lot. The way that you describe things - like Karl's bangs- "shiny plastic fingers clutching at his eyebrows" and the "king...underneath its queen exterior" - you are very witty. I liked the time sequence - the way that we were able to track the last few days up to Tuesday. The characters were interesting to say the least. Poor Mike, seemed like he was trying to help his buddy, but he ended up knocking out the desk clerk. The boss, who loves three little mice...Karl, not my favorite person and the best part of the story - the way you integrated Millie.Minnie.Whatever - That was priceless!
Great job on the story.
