Cold Rot (Decaying Winter Fanfic)

Lesson 2: How 2 Build.

"A Man With A Bitter End, A Blazing Past, Body Of A Warrior, The Mind Of A Philosopher And A Heart Of Gold."

Constant Sounds Of Nails And Hammer Bang Across The Warehouse.

Muhammad Was Carrying Boards And The Dropping Them Off Near Jeremy.

Jeremy However Decides To Both Work And Teach The Teen Something Too.

Jeremy Takes 2 Wooden Boards That Muhammad Has Dropped Off.

He Stacks Them Ontop Of One Another.

He Then begins To Talk.

Jeremy: See This? These Long Rectangular Pieces Of Wood Is Called A Wooden Plank, Or A Board, Call 'Em Either Between The Two, I'll Pick Em Up Now.

Jeremy Picks Up The Stacked Planks.

Jeremy: Now See What Happens When I Tilt Them Forward.

The Plank Slides Off The Bottom Plank And It Echoes Throughout The Warehouse, It Makes A Incredibly Small Chip Off The Concrete Floor.

Jeremy's Hands Pick Up The Fallen Board, Puts The Bottom Board Down, And Places The Fallen Board Ontop Of It.

Jeremy: Now, Last Time, It Slides Off Because Nothing Hold The Top Board, Meanwhile The Bottom Didn't Because I Hold It Down With My Hands.

He Then Took 2 Nails And A Construction Hammer.

Jeremy: Look, I'm Gonna Attach The Top Plank With The Bottom One, With This Nail, It Is Long Enough To Go Through And Still Pierce It, And With That Principle, The Nail Will Hold The Too Plank Onto The Bottom One.

Jeremy Sets The Nails With His Fingers And Set The Hammer Ready, He Readies The Hammer By Using The Face Of The Hammer To Set The Line Of Hitting.

Jeremy: Now This Is How You Hit In A Nail, You Set It With You Fingers, But Don't Instantly Strike It While Your Hands Is Still Holding The Nail.

He Taps The Nail Until It's Inside Deep Enough So It Won't Fall Off When His Hands Let Go Immediately.

Jeremy: And When You Did Set It Up, You Have 2 Options And 2 Outcomes, Do Nothing And Whatever Your Doing, It Won't Happen.

???: What's...Outcomes?

Jeremy: Hmmm, It's...The Consequence Or A Good Outcome Of A Way That You Pick.

???: Ummm...I'm Still Confused, What's Consequences?

Muhammad Barges Into The Conversation And Says....

Muhammad: Consequences Are Something That Happens After You Choose, Or To Be More Accurate, It's Punishment For Something That You Chose...

???: Punishment? If It Happens After You Did Something, Why Not Just Don't Do Anything?

Muhammad: Because-

Jeremy Voice Cuts Him Off And Says Something More Wise Than Muhammad Would've Said.

Jeremy: Because Sometimes...Things That You Do...Is Always Worth More Than The Outcome.

???: Understandable....

Jeremy Picks Up The Nailed Boards And Says: Come On, Aren't You Gonna Help Me? If You Want To Stay Here, Y'Better Pull Your Weight Around Here, We Don't Take In Dead Weight.

???: Ok!

Jeremy Gives The Kid The Hammer And Them Took A New One.

He Picks Up The Nailed Board And Shows Him What Happens If You Nailed The Board Down.
