The Nosy Housewife & The Last of The Mad Nazi Scientists
Chasity Chase looked out her window as the movers unloaded large crates off the moving van. An old man and a young boy seemed to be supervising the operation. She sighed. Chasity had been hoping for another housewife to move in next door to alleviate the boredom. Her husband worked for President Reagan and worked long hours, sometimes seventy or more a week leaving her alone most of the day. Most of the residents of this suburb of DC were older then the twentyfive year old housewife. Anyway it was too early to make a judgement call on the new neighbors. The young boy had to have a mother, right? She'd make up a care package and take it over once they got settled in. Maybe she would find out a little more then.
Chasity went to the supermarket and returned with some fresh fruit and a bottle of wine. She began putting together a nice fruit basket to carry over to the new neighbors so that she could snoop... er welcome them to the neighborhood.
Chasity walked next door with her basket and knocked on the door. Much to her surprise a dwarf answered the door. He was between three and four feet tall with crooked teeth, a slight hunch back, and appeared in his fifties. She had mistaken him for a child earlier. "Ja, vhat can I do for you?" The dwarf had a German accent.
Chasity was a little caught off guard, but quickly recovered. "I just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood." She held up the basket.
"Der doctor ist very busy," said the dwarf not moving from the door.
Past the dwarf, a man wearing a white lab coat exited a door with stairs leading down to the basement. "Vhat have we here?" said the man. He appeared quite old, but moved like a much younger man. "Who is this lovely creature?" He kissed her hand and bowed.
"I'm Chasity Chase. My husband, Dick and I live next door to you."
"I'm Gunther Von Horne," he said gesturing her to come in, though they didn't move beyond the foyer. The dwarf just stepped asside and scowled at her.
Chasity could see boxes and boxes of strange equipment lining the hall. There were strange metallic instruments, glass tubes, and lots of wires. "Need any help unpacking?" she asked hoping to get a closer look at the boxes.
"No thank you my dear," said Von Horne. "As you can see, I'm very busy at the moment. Perhaps ve can get together later after Ludwig"- he gestured towards the dwarf- "and I are settled in. I thank you for the basket and the wine."
"Just being neighborly," she said as she was shown out the door.
Chasity waved bye and slowly walked back through the yard staring in the windows as she went.

"You're begining to remind me of that nosy neighbor on "Bewitched" said Dick Chase.
Chasity sighed and let the curtain fall. Her husband didn't understand her curiosity. Doctor Von Horne had been next door a little over a week now and there were lots of strange goings on in his house. Lights were on all night and sometimes they would flicker. She could hear the hum of machinery walking along the street past the house and packages of all sizes arrived every day. Ludwig would meet the delivery person in the yard and sign for them. Later, the doctor would come out and help move the larger ones inside.
"Besides," said Dick, "shouldn't you be getting ready?"
"Yes, give me a half hour," said Chasity taking one last glance out the window. Dick was flying out west tomorrow and it was always their ritual to make love before his extended trips.
Chasity headed upstairs and stripped off her clothes and what her husband refered to as "her old lady underwear" in the bathroom. She always took a bath before and after sex. She wanted to smell nice going into it and always felt dirty afterwards. She bathed and put on her rather conservative nightgown. Chasity was shy and didn't like showing off her body even to her husband despite being quite attractive. Her husband said she had the body of a Playboy playmate, the perfect girl next door. She thought she was too skinny and her C cup breasts were a little too big on her thin build. Her rear end was bony too. Chasity let her long black hair down, brushed her teeth, and headed into the bedroom.
Dick was lying on the bed naked, his penis already erect with anticipation. He wasn't shy about his body at all and looked forward to their rare sex sessions. Chasity turned out the lights, pulled off her nightgown, and slipped under the cover. Dick joined her and climbed on top. Fifteen minutes later, she was back in the bathroom showering.

Chasity returned from taking Dick to Delos airport just as the sun was setting. She fixed herself dinner and as it was Thursday settled down to watch the Cosby show and Cheers. Just after Cheers, she heard the hum of machinery next door and her lights flickered. Chasity got up off the couch and peeked out the window. The lights were on in the basement of Doctor Von Horne's, flickering again as if his machines were drawing large amounts of power.
Chasity couldn't take it anymore. She had to know what was going on over there. It was dark outside and there weren't any street lights between their houses. She felt reasonably safe walking over there.
Chasity crept through the yards and walked up to one of Von Horne's basement windows. She fell to her knees and peered in. What she saw looked like something out of a thirties horror movie. A regular Frankenstein's laboratory filled the room. Huge tubes, machinery, electricity flickering between electrodes. She could see Gunther Von Horne fooling with some kind of computor screen tha looked far more advanced then her Commodore 64.
Chasity jumped a mile when the voice behind her said, "Vhat are you Doing?"
