With Jane too busy with her art projects and her family out of the house, Daria was all alone. She had been in her room for hours working on her latest Melody Powers story and hunger had slowly crept up on her. Quinn was on a date with one of the Three J's while Jake and Helen had gone to some romance seminar for the weekend. For some reason they had taken both the Lexus and the S.U.V. with them.
Saving her progress, Daria shut down her computer and headed downstairs. Once in the kitchen, she checked the fridge to find it was woefully empty. Not even a frozen lasagna to be found. Not that she was in the mood for any of that. Toying with the camera that had been left on the kitchen counter for some reason, Daria thought about her options.
She could just go out and head to the pizza place but she didn't feel like walking. Calling for delivery might be better but she ran the risk of having to deal with Artie; that is if he had been rehired. Grabbing the portable phone and walking into the living room, Daria decided to go with Chinese instead. Some Beef Lo Mein sounded pretty good right about now. Setting the camera down on the coffee table, Daria dialed Good Time Chinese.
The voice on the other end was not one she was expecting. "Goddess Relief Hotline. A representitive will be with you shortly." Was this some sort of joke? "Excuse me?" Daria replied but the line had already gone dead. Forgetting her hunger for the moment, Daria turned to go put the phone back on its charger in the kitchen. She missed seeing a woman coming out of the lens of the camera while her back was turned.
A slight cough made her freeze in her tracks. She knew she was the only one here so who the Hell was that? "Please don't swear, it's not very nice." Swallowing the lump in her throat, Daria turned towards the voice and her eyes widened. "Hello there. I'm the Goddess Peorth. I have a deal to make with you." Even being a Goddess didn't prepare Peorth for the sight of Daria fainting dead away.
