Greased Out Chapter Nine

"Aww look" Brookalyn said as she picked up a puppy out of a patch of daisies. "NO BROOKALYN!" Barrett, Darkus and Arica said at the same time. After thinking a few minutes Trisky managed to say "No pets". "But you guys look at him don't you see he's just a tiny little guy. I've never ever got to have a pet before" Brookalyn whined. "Neither have I" Arica said. "Wait I take that back I have four unidentified species" she teased. Barrett rolled his eyes. Just then a guy ran up panting and said "That's my dog Chase! Why do you have it?". "I found it sucker it's my dog!"Brookalyn yelled. "She's kidding take your mangy mutt and leave" Darkus said. "That ain't no way to talk to people" the man said snatching his dog away from Brookalyn. "Well, sir, you don't understand. We've got miles to go and limited time to get there" Barrett said. "Shut up Barrett we can't trust anyone!" hissed Darkus. "Well, I'm good old country folk and I can already tell you all are runaways. I won't go to the police or nothing but, if you would like a decent meal and shower my farms just a few mintes away" the man said. "That's mighty kind of you but-" began Arica. "Alright, kids come on" he said. They all looked at each other and nodded. After about ten minutes they saw a bunch of horses and a couple of cows behind a fence. "Are you a cowboy?" ask Brookalyn. "That I am little lady a bunch of us live here and travel horseback" the man replied."I'm James by the way" he said. They told him their names and he let them shower. That night they ate a meal like never before! They had beef stew, milk, beans, baked potatoes, squash, salad and apple pie! "That's the best meal we've had in a long time we can't thank you enough" Arica said. "You kids ate whereever you came from didn't you?"James ask. "Not really we'd get a piece of nasty bologne or bread or if we were really lucky a slice of pizza or a few potatoe chips. The food we got from the hunters was all like stale bread and tuna fish then  the indian food was all weird like squirrel stew"Brookalyn said. "What?" James ask. "Its a long story"Darkus said. "Very" agreed Barrett. "I've got time" James said. They told him their whole tale.
