Even as Astra acquiesced to the strange woman's rather practical offering
Fred began to inspect his own body. He swung his sword a few times here
and there, using both hands alternately. ~~yep, I'm still right
handed~~ [4] He looked about the room for his flaming ax, [5113] but
could not find it. ~~I wonder if I am still as strong as three dragons?
~~ He ran towards a door to see if he could split the hinges with
sheer force, but, unfortunately all he accomplished was a bruising to his
shoulder.
"Hey!" screamed Betty as she returned to the room. "What the hell do you thing you're doing cutting up my furniture!??!" "Sorry." "OK," said Astra. "Fred, let's get out of this place." Fred looked at the woman, she was tall, had a full head of red hair, and was wearing breeches made of the same odd fabric that the Betty woman was wearing. He did not know her, and even though she was attractive, he knew all too well the dangers of such attraction. "No," he said. "I will go my own way... you shall go yours." Astra looked amazed. "This witch has changed you!" she said. She pulled out her knife but Fred quickly stayed her hand. "No," he said with greater confidence. "This woman may yet prove to be a witch, but she has not bespelled me. I do not know you though you think you know me. Perhaps you know, as this Betty says, another Lord Fred. But my world was destroyed long ago. [12350]. Since that time I have seen many things... I am my own man, and will not bide with company at this time." "But Fred," replied Astra. "Even if you are not the same man I have come to know, you are his image. We work well together, we have watched each other's backs. We do not even know what dangers there are outside of this hovel!" "Hey!" grumbled Betty at the insult. "You know nothing of dangers, little woman." Fred recalled his own death at the hands of a woman. [3804] He had fallen in love with her [1619] and she killed him for love of the dragon of the Southern Caves. He recalled his resurrection at the hands of the gods and his revenge upon that cruel female [5113]. He was not about to tell these two foreign women of his travails at the hands of a woman, he was simply going to get as far away from them as possible. "Before I leave," said Fred to the women. "Has anyone seen my towel?'
