I slowed down when I saw the rocky road that lead to the place we were going and carefully started up the steep road. I was desperately hoping that my car wouldn’t hit, I wasn’t in the mood to have to figure out what would need repairing if it did hit, I wasn’t the best at repairing cars to begin with. I kept up the winding hill passing a bunch of slowly collapsing and decaying barn houses until we came to the house.
I parked my bike and hopped off, Waterfall and Torture did the same. Raven came and parked my car behind the bikes and he and Fang got out. I let out a sigh of relief when I heard that it didn’t hit, almost every time we had come up here before everything took off one of our cars would hit the rocky road.
“So where exactly are we?” It was Torture.
“Yeah, Venom, where are we?” That was Raven
I looked at Bomb, “Any guesses before I tell them? You would be the only one to know.”
“Umm if I had to guess, I’d say your uncle’s farm, or someone from your family, I don’t remember.”
“DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER!” I yelled.
“Damn will you shut up, we don’t know if anyones here or if anyone can hear us.” That was Raven again.
“Please, I know this place, we’re miles away from civilization, the closest neighbor is my great grandfathers house and that's quite a while away.”
“And what if there's someone inside?”
“Then I guess we’ll just have to go find out.” I said as I walked up to the house and opened the door. I walked in and did a quick scan of all the rooms in the house, no one there, as expected.
“There’s no one in there, as I told you.”
“So what are we going to do here?” It was Bomb.
“This will be our main base, no one will ever find us here. Even if someone would try to sneak us on us, the game cameras that my uncle put up will pick up on them and we can react before they get anywhere near us. This land goes on for miles and we can plant and harvest stuff from here. Somewhere around here there should be some four wheelers too. Plus later I’m going to go down to my grandfathers and see what we can use from there.”
Raven was the first to respond, “And you think what? We’re going to live here forever?”
Bomb spoke before I could, “It’s a safe place to stay and live what more is there to it?”
“As Bomb said it’s safe here, it’s a safe place for a main base. Of course we’re still going to travel out and help fellow killjoys and go on but we now have a safe and reliable main camp, and its big enough for all of us.” Not to mention it was forever away from where I killed my family so I wouldn’t have that constant reminder of that hovering over my shoulders. “Besides there wasn’t much action back at that factory anyway.”
“Not much action! Did you forget how many Dracs we just took down yesterday in that town!?” That was Raven again.
“Right well I think I’m going to go get some rest now.” Bomb said, grabbing a bunch of stuff out of the car to put away before taking a nap. Torture and Fang agreed with this and grabbed more stuff out of the car and walked in the house.
I stared at Raven with my icy cold, piercing, bright blue eyes, an intense stare that made people cower away from me, he stared back with his bluish gray eyes, an equally intense stare. Before he had time to react I pulled a ninja star out of my trench coat and threw it in his direction. It planted itself in the tree behind him, just above his head, if he would’ve been about two inches taller it would’ve hit him dead center in the forehead. I was purposely aiming just above him and I think he knew it, he didn’t move a muscle.
I stormed off not bothering to retrieve my ninja star, I would get it on the way back and if not I have plenty more. I walked along through the trees listening to the birds chirp, I hadn’t heard that in quite some time. I past some deer and considered killing one for food later but that would mean going back right away which I wasn’t in the mood to do right now. I continued walking, past all the animals and just kept going, I wasn’t exactly sure where I was going, just away at the moment.
At one point I decided to climb a tree, it was huge and towered above the ground. I climbed all the way to the top and just sat there staring out at the land. I was somewhere around 66 feet up off the ground just sitting here enjoying the view.
If I were to fall and die no one would know, they would look and look and perhaps find my body but by the time they did it would be too late. I could leave all my worries behind me for good. I wouldn’t have to suffer through the thing’s I’ve done wrong in this life, and all's I would have to do is throw myself out of this tree.
And there you have it, part 10, double digits YEAHHH. haha So any thoughts on what happens next? Am I gonna jump out of the tree? Will I die? Comments please I love to read them and I enjoy reading what you guys think so comments please. More to come!
Keep living, I'll keep writing, You keep reading!
