Sample Saturday: Deleted Scene Edition

Because of the deletion of multiple point of views, this scene from Tales of the Dim Knight is not the paperback book and wasn't in the original Kindle Edition but is in the new second Kindle Edition:

“Why do they not recognize the flag?”
Miss Invisible glanced over the muscles bulging from Captain France’s costume. Maybe a beret would help. “People do think you’re patriotic in those colors.”
Captain France leaned against an overturned trashcan in the alley. “They think I’m American until I speak. Why can’t they tell the difference between red, white, and blue and blue, white, and red?”


Miss Invisible shook her head. Days like this, she wondered why she ever let that man in her bed. “It’s beyond me.”
Blue food coloring fell from a window and splashed all over them.


Captain France wiped at his suit. “What is this?”


Two men carrying automatic weapons dropped down. The taller said, “Ahmed wants to see you.”


“Ahmed who?” asked Captain France.
“You’ll see. Come with us.”
Captain France stood, hands in the air. “But, of course.”


Miss Invisible disappeared, except for the sticky substance. One of the men slugged her with his rifle butt. She screamed at the pain throbbing in her side and re-appeared.'


“Ahmed knows your tricks. They’ll be quite useless. Come this way.”
The men led them to a car. Two feet short, their captors stopped, a blank, confused look coming over their faces.


Someone screamed, “Look up there!”


“Huh?” the men said and looked up even though if Miss Invisible didn’t know better, she’d think the voice came from the manhole leading to the sewer.


Miss Invisible and Captain France jump kicked the stupefied men.


The manhole cover lifted up. “Come this way, to safety.”


Captain France muttered, “There had better not be. alligators down there.”


The two heroes held their noses and followed their new friend.

There's even more available in Tales of the Dim Knight 2nd Kindle edition available for 99 cents through 7/8.
