Ran - Unusual Happenings

25

Keeping a keen eye as you don't feel anymore movement or threat, sitting down and hugging the dogs as you check them over for wounds finding a small one on dog you close your eyes and look at the bodies "okay let's get these sorted" you collect the bodies and find a place to hang them.

Doing so you skin, gut and cut the meat then keep the bones all done within and hour the furs are rolled up until the night, you place most of the meat in the rub and add a few spices then cleaning dogs wound with the homemade booze he yelped and growled you kiss his head, having a wash you get going again.

The animals were a bit spooked so you were moving quickly, you stopped at a park of some description, setting up camp and placing the fence out as you start the fire, checking and cleaning the arrows as you boil water to clean the furs, some of the meat gets boiled in spiced water first.

The dogs get a bone each as you look at the cat and kitten then cutting small bits you feed them some small scraps of the meat, feed and watering the others who were still a bit spooked, furs cleaned and hung to dry you stare at the mountain and pray for a safer travel "at least no big cats.. Shit I have jinxed us" then weep as the cat and kitten give you cuddles.

Kissing their heads you pull a few large pieces of the meat and give the dogs a big piece each while cutting more small bits off for the cats, you remove the meat from the water, then disposing of that you heat some butter in the pan adding some vegetables and herbs then goes in the wolf meat you found some of the flavour packets and add with a small amount of water.

Cooking up some corn and rice then adding some of the cabbage to the meat, you sit and eat happily a small bowl for the four gluttons, feeling exhausted you relax back as you look at the furs with a bit of hesitation "there is a lot more attacks now" thinking then saying "I want to see if we can find another deer" they grumble as you giggle.

They had gotten up and looked at what was found the play house was made into a shelter for the chickens and smaller animals, the green house was placed over in the growing area, then they saw the open shed and the storage box, the open shed was built next to the bigger one and made up a a shelter.

The plastic greenhouse was made the other side of the open large barn and the wood was placed inside on another sheet, then the metal storage box was placed by the caravans, they opened it and laughed, the bits came out it was outdoor furniture and a bbq with some charcoal, the two sheds were built near the back of the barn.

All the gas canisters were placed in the storage box, the feed and bedding were put in the barn near the last lot, the feed was also placed in it for now, all the camping and bedding were placed in the coloured shed the other one was left empty for now, they looked around and sighed "I hope none of it collapses when we get the quakes?".

As they look around Ran says "I am going down again. We could get some more bits in the planting area. She said about corn?" the three think then nod, when Sanzu says "okay, but how far away was it from here? We got here quicker than we thought? But we are driving so we're faster" Ran sighs "I will sleep in the truck if it's over night?".

Looking at him Mikey nods "be careful and come back quickly" he smiles and nods, filling the tank he grabs food and bedding, all in the cab he has fresh clothes and bottles of water smiling he waves as he leaves they watch him go when Rindou says "he is a bit excited about this?" Mikey chuckles and nods.

Ran reached the bottom bypasses the mountain and kept going straight he drove along the road for ages when he reached the area you had talked about getting corn, he smiled and got down, dragging a tarpaulin as he cuts the corn stalks, then digs a few out to transplant onto he mountain, as he does this you are on the move again.

Alert and vigilant after the wolf episode yesterday, you can see the mountain clearly now as the horses trot towards the area, as you pass an area you scan and stop them, getting down with rope you go over and grin, walking slowly they jerk and look up holding out a hand they sniff, placing the rope on them you lead them back to the caravan and tie them to the side.

Getting back on you flick the reins you now had another horse which was moving docile at the side of the caravan, you picked up the pace as you saw the clouds, growling loudly as you hear the boom, stopping you place the coats on everyone then making a quick one for the new horse, finally you put yours on and getting comfortable you flick the reins.

Moving quickly through the thunder as you see fruit trees you growl and stop picking what you can then finding young ones you work quickly to grab one of each then placing on the back cart you get moving again while cat and kitten find space inside to lay down safe and dry, you keep moving through it all when the rain fell in sheets you snarl and cuss.

Ran was on the squash when he heard the boom, he took what he had and placed in the back of the truck then got in the cab as the thunder and lightning rages only for the rain to come down and soak everything he winced and sent his thoughts to you out in this.
