The Boondocks

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

The rain lasted well into the night. The rain gave the air a cold chill. That means we got to pull out the blankets.

It was morning time and Hunter and I where eating c-rations again. I looked at Hunter and his face had a worried expression. I asked him"Whats wrong?"

"Winter is coming and we are running low on food. We need to make a run and now or it will be to cold to."

Hunter replied.

"Lets go right now." I suggested.

"Alright finish eating and I will get the guns and cars ready. You get the bags."

I ate quickly,got the bags ready, and clipped my combat knife to my belt. I made sure all the windows where locked and made sure the place looked abandoned.

"Lets go." Hunter said calmly.

We walked through the kitchen to the door and headed out to the Dodge Challenger.

"Can I drive" I asked.

"No. The last time you did you almost hit a tree and almost killed us both." Hunter replied.

I started laughing and Hunter said "Its not funny Bo."

I got into the passenger side and Hunter asked

"I thought you wanted to drive"

"Really?" I asked

"No"

"You're an ass."

" I know" Hunter said laughing,

Town was about thirty-six miles away from my house. If we don't run into trouble we could be back by sunset.

With our luck we would.

"Do you need girl things." Hunter asked.

"Please." I replied.

"You know I'm kinda happy that you don't have to go through the drama of high school" Hunter stated randomly.

"Why" I asked.

"I would have been in jail because if any boy would have messed with you I would have killed him." Hunter said.

"Oh dear lord Hunter I would have put a boy on the ground crying if he messed with me thank you very much!" I exclaimed

"That's my little sister." Hunter said laughing a bit.

"Can I sleep a bit?" I asked.

"Yeah you look like you need it." Hunter replied.

"Oh I need it." I said.

"This face is beautiful ok." Hunter stated.

"I look just like you." I replied.

"I know you get your good looks from me." Hunter said.

I did look like him an exact replica almost,except that I'm a girl and I don't have short hair like his. Or I'm not tall and muscular. It's like we where twins when we stand by each other.

We both have a sharp jaw line and a nose that was a little crocked. Black straight hair and big gray eyes.

I laid my seat back and went to sleep.

---------------------------------------------

When I woke up I was still in the car. I looked over at Hunters side and he was gone.

What the hell. How dare he leave me in this car in the middle of a parking lot.

I took off my seat belt and found a piece of paper on the dash and it said:

Bo don't freak out. I'm inside. If they pass by just play dead.

P.S. There is a pistol under your seat if they get violent shoot them. Oh and STAY IN THE DAMN CAR!

I'm me, how does he expect me to just sit hear? I reached under my seat to get the pistol that was under seat and got out of the car to stretch.

"Didn't I tell you to stay in the car.?"

Hunter asked.

I didn't get scared because I knew who it was.

"No actually you wrote it." I said.

"Whatever get in." Hunter demanded.

.Once I got into the car and got my seatbelt on Hunter drove out of the parking lot and started driving out of town.

Then we saw silver Ferraris blocking the way out of town.

"Shoot first die last." Hunter said

He pulled the car over and loaded his AR-15 and started firing.

My heart was pounding. I couldn't hear anything. I was dumbfounded.

All I remember is seeing is Hunter go down.
