Brothers: A Tale of a Bird and a Son

Chapter 12

It's been exactly twelve days since they started heading over to the traveling sells man. It was windy that day, that could extinguish a candle or a torch, or any unprotected flames that could happen today. Though that could be expected since they were traveling through a rocky plain where Tommy has read goats might live.

Most things have been rather quiet as his teacher has mostly been teaching Techno and Wilbur how to drive the wagon in the daytime. At night there was little to no chat. They joke a few times. Tommy even let Techno draw with him. Though it wasn't anything that stood out. Just normal chit-chat.

Wilbur has been trying to be better and Tommy has been trying to forgive him. But even he will admit that it's been hard to trust Wilbur at the moment still. Especially since he seems to be trying to gain it so quick, with food or just plain agreeing on him. Eventually, Tommy will have to tell him to stop, but at this moment he's not sure what to say.

Aizawa seems to have taken a liking to them again it seems. Though to Tommy, it's been hard to tell.

Tommy has been also trying to keep track of his dreams as he has a theory that maybe his dreams are memories that he can't understand. Though so far it's been unproductive as most of them he immediately forget the moment he wakes up. It frustrates him to no end.

All he's doing is trying to focus on what he was dreaming of last night and nothing comes to mind.

"You look like your about to pop something. Stop that." Techno yell at the boy.

Tommy sticks out his tongue at him. "Piss off, I'm trying to remember."

"Yeah, well you look like you about to shit yourself and we don't need that." Techno sighs leaning his head back a bit. "Just three more days on the road and we'll be there." He then mutters.

"Hopefully get answers and supplies." Aizawa chimes in looking at the two of them.

"Probably have to take a few jobs to get through supplies," Wilbur suggested looking forward to the path they were taking.

Tommy sighs and shuts his book close and starts closing his eyes for a moment listening to the three chat away at nothing just to fill the silence for something.

He soon looks around seeing the stone path and light snow on the ground.

"What happened to you kicking Techno ass if we ended up on a mountain?" Tommy asks with a snicker.

"Oh that's what we need to do, go to those fight clubs. They were so fun!" Wilbur said happily, which made Tommy smile.

"There's the Wilbur, I sorta know." The boy thought.

"If they have one then yeah sure go ahead, me and Tommy will make sure you don't kill each other," Aizawa spoke up.

"Eah sure why not. I can kick your ass any day." Techno shrugs with a smile.

"Aizawa can probably kick both your asses," Tommy said chucking.

"That's probably true so I prefer we don't do that," Techno replied.

"You afraid this old fart might kick your ass?" Aizawa step in.

"No, I just don't want to get charge by harassing the elderly."

"Be lucky I'm watching over Wilbur driving, or else I would be trying to fight you now," Aizawa spoke.

Tommy could notice him smirking as he said that.

Eventually, the day became night and they had to stop to set up camp. It was the same as ever, Tommy was in charge of making the fire, Wilbur would find any fuel, Aizawa cooks the meals, and Techno made sure that nothing important was on the wagon along with making sure the wagon was hidden. Though even Tommy will admit that he was having trouble with the fire with how the wind roar at them.
