Following Fred Through The Forest
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 2295
|
Alicia had run but not too far. She had stayed quite near as the hunters
had used a heavy net to entangle Fred. He was hoiseted between two large,
silent, dark-skinned men and they and ten others went trooping through the
forest. Alicia followed them easily. She wouldn't even had needed wolfen senses to follow the mess and chaos they were leaving behind. Why, she even had to stamp out a still burning cigar one of the shorter, more scarred ones had tossed aside. There were fourteen men in total. The two slaves, the scarred man, two identical red haired jerks who smelt like blood, four thin, wiry, blonde swords men, a midget with multiple knives and a man who carried gold. The rest were boring and looked alike. As if someone went to the Actor's Guild and asked for generic flunkies. After an hour the troop had emerged into a clearing at the base of a fifty foot wall of granite and loam. The cliff melted down back into the woods about two hundred yards off in either direction. Strange figures dressed in orange suits emerged from the wall itself. They had glass over their faces and hoses leading from their head area to their back area. Ten in all. Some short, some tall and all smelled like the grease her father used to put on wagon wheels to make them work better. The wind and the distance combined to make Alicia unsure what the two groups were saying but it was obvious that they were negotiating over Fred. Alicia had to do something She whined softly as she clambered to a higher branch for a better view. They were finishing up!
