《On The Run From A Dragon》Day four: Part One
Advertisement
Tom awoke to a scream. There was day light pouring in from the window. Jumping up and stepping out of June's room ready to rock and roll. He looked down stairs to see June's dad holding his shotgun at the bottom of the stairs. That's when a "Tom!" hit him behind. June's mom yelled at him the way all mother's know how.
"Put that gun away. I know that scream and she is going to be fine. Now go down stairs and get breakfast with Jimmy. You two are just alike."
Tom nodded with a 'yes ma'am' and looked down stairs to give June's dad the all clear, but he was long gone. He put away his revolver and walked down to the kitchen. It was a nice breakfast with ham, eggs, bacon and hand made biscuits. About three minutes later June and her mom came down to join them. Tom was about to ask why June screamed early, but got his answer. At the base of the longer quills there was little black puff balls. She didn't look at Tom when she sat down. Tom thinking he knows what to say.
"The puffy things are cute."
June hid her face behind her hands and sat her head down on the table. Tom looked over at June's dad for help, but he mouthed 'on your own'. Tom didn't know what to do and got back to eating. June muttered something but no one could comprehend her. June's mom put a hand on her shoulder.
"Deer we can't hear you."
She turned her head to look up at Tom.
"They're not weird."
Tom bit off a piece of bacon.
"Now that I got a good look at them, they're just feathers."
She looked hopeful and asked.

"So it's normal?"
Tom finished off the bacon and added with a nodded.
"Completely normal."
She smiled and got something to eat. June's dad gave him the thumbs up. When Tom got done eating he put his plate in the sink and got a dreadful feeling right down to his core. He looked out of the window from the kitchen and then at the front door. The three of them could see he was worried about something as June asked him.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
Tom's paranoia yelled at him.
'Need To Hide Or Not Be Here!'
Tom glared at the front door and didn't look at her.
"Is there some where we can hide? I think they're all round us."
June was going to ask who he is talking about, but a gentle knocking came from the front door. Unholstering his reliable gun, Tom leveled it at the oak wooden door. June's dad pointed to his study room and said.
"There is a trap door under the rug. Hun when they are inside put it back on top."
Tom and June rushed over to the small study. They moved the plush rug and after he opened the trap door, Tom got in. It a bomb shelter with all the stuff you would need to live for a week. June got inside next and he felt a lot better when the door closed. Siting down against the stone wall, Tom let out a long breath of relief. She looked down at him and asked.
"Are you going crazy?"
He laughed with a small.
"Yes."

Get on a train. Head east. Get on a ship. Travel further east, in style. See some wonders of the world. Find what was lost. Find where home is. How hard is any of that?Well, for Jake Ranger, pretty damned hard. The world being a wild, crazy mess from a global altering event called the Shattering doesn’t help much. Nor does being a famous folk hero. That last one really sucks, because people always run up to famous heroes and beg them for help with all their problems. Then there are the actual outlaws and monsters. They don’t help much either. Mostly they just get in the way and make everything way worse. And in a world that is so screwed up decades after the Shattering, there is a lot of variety to both outlaw and monster. Then there are the more civilized, (read: sane), non-human folk, and good old humans as well. They all get along just spectacularly. Totally best friends, on every level, for life. Of course getting to the east coast is only half the battle. Once there, he must contend with the so-called “civilized people.” Then there’s the ship ride; pirates and sea monsters are a thing too, after all. Should have read the brochure. But when the chips are down, the bad guys are winning and the wild winds of chaos are blowing, it helps to have a fighter on your side. Even if he is a little wild. After all, that’s not really a problem. That’s what beautiful women and lots of gold is for. Proper motivation is always key to success. Welcome to a Steampunk, Wild West, Victorian era, Lovecraftian infested, fantasy, shoot ‘em up world. Complete with a slow build harem of badass beautiful women, crazy adventures, and fun, monstrous villains. Welcome to the world of Wild Steam. Do enjoy your stay.

So... It has come to my knowledge that I need a proper synopsis to post/save this so here goes a thing: Someone dies, and what comes after seems to be like one of those myths of old where you are brought to the afterlife, except, this particular soul's afterlife doesn't seem like it will be comfortable, will it? WARNING: I am only writing this because I want to see how long I can keep writing from here and I am only posting it in RR because I like the display. I advise you do not start reading it but if you do, know that I PROMISE NOTHING. Pd: I write in the night settings so it may be needed to see.
