Highlander 7: The Puerto Rican

Highlander 7: The Puerto Rican.

Duncan and Methos were eating brunch at a cafe.

"Why are we making another sequel? Each one is more disappointing than the last", said Duncan.

"It is because of the tv show. People really liked the tv show" said Methos.

Suddenly the camera speed slowed down and there was a sound effect! Another immortal walked into the cafe! He was about 5'6". He had a shaved head, pencil thin mustache, and very stout arms. "I am Hector Ruiz. 300 years ago I was born in the highlands of Puerto Rico, and I cannot die!" he declared.

Methos invited him to their table. "I don't want to fight you. You have very stout arms" said Methos.

"I have been fixing cars for 100 years! My arms are stout!" said Hector.

Duncan had a flashback sequence. He remembered owning a small truck freight business in Erie Pennsylvania in the 1950s. It was mostly a tax shelter thing. Hector had been the Mechanic. Then the Flashback ended.

A few minutes later a very attractive woman guest star entered the cafe. "I want to sleep with her by the end of the movie!" said Duncan.

"I want to sleep with her!" said Hector.

"Then I will fight you!" said Duncan.

Methos gestured and the woman sauntered over to their table. Her name was Violet. He invited her to join them for brunch. Duncan and Hector tried to make clever conversation with her, but they were thwarted by comedic veiled aggression toward each other.

Eventually the brunch was over. Duncan and Hector met in the parking lot to plan their sword fight later in the movie. They both drove away in cars worthy of Dirk Pitt.

Later that night Duncan waited outside the abandoned warehouse for Hector. After half an hour he got a phone call.

"Where are you? I've been waiting half an hour." said Hector.

Duncan compared his address to Hectors and cross referenced it on the google map. Duncan was at an abandoned warehouse on East River Road and Hector was at an abandoned warehouse on East Pointe River Road. "There are so many abandoned warehouses in town it is hard to pick one out!" said Duncan.

He hopped in his car and sped toward Hector's warehouse. They met outside. Hector was finishing up checking his blackberry. "Finally" said Hector.

They snapped the lock on the Warehouse and went inside. "It is dark in here! I can't see anything" said Duncan. none of the light switches worked. "They must have shut the electricity to this warehouse off before abandoning it".

"we will have to find another warehouse" said Hector. They looked at the next 12 warehouses before finding one that appeared to have working lights. Inside they began fighting. After a few minutes several workers showed up to watch until the police arrived.

"what are you trying to do?" said one of the police.

"we were just practicing!" said Duncan.

The police arrested Duncan and Hector. Duncan called Methos from lockup. Methos did not answer the phone.

The next day Duncan and Hector got out of jail. Duncan met Methos at the bar Methos owned. Violet was there! "Why didn't you answer your phone?" said Duncan.

"I was on a date with Violet. We were dating all night" said Methos.

The End!
