As they entered the kitchen, Rusty was bent over at the other side of the table to rummage for the day’s newspaper. Straightening up, he slapped a broadsheet down on the table in front of them.
“Have a look through this paper an’ see what ye can get.”
Dejectedly, the snake and the cat sat down and began to leaf through the paper as Rusty left the room. There were many adverts in the paper, most of which sounded tedious and none of which appealed to them.

The advert was fairly unassuming, medium sized and seemingly nondescript, printed in simple black and white. But it was the wording of the ad that caught their eye:
ARE YOU OUT OF WORK?
ARE YOUR RELATIVES MOANING AT YOU TO FIND SOME?
DON’T DESPAIR!
THERE IS WORK FOR YOU!!
JUST DROP BY THE LAKE IN THE PARK TODAY
(SUPERVILLAIN COSTUME PREFERRED BUT NOT NECESSARY)

"The lake in the park?” said Ricky, his red eyes wide.
“Supervillain costume?  Dude, what is this job?” said Maxxie, his yellow eyes even wider.
“I dunno, but if it needs a costume to do, it sounds mental enough to be cool!” A smile emerged on Ricky’s thin lips. A smile emerged on Maxxie’s mouth as well. There was a moments’ silence. Then…
