Mad Max: The Other Wife

Crazy Man

Luckily we survived the sandstorm, we pulled over to wash off. I got the hose and turned it on, I sprayed my face with the water in relief, I gave the others the hose to wash off. The Dag was helping the wives get their belts off, Splendid washed me off a bit more and she rubbed my hair some more to get rid of the stench and the sand out of my hair. The Dag motioned me to get closer, she started to remove my belt that had Immortan Joe's mark on it. I once again held the hose and washed the rest of my body while Dag tried to get the belt off. Then we heard a big 'thump' I looked over and saw a man in his 20's or 30's, he had a strange mask on his face and a war boy attached to him with a chain. The Dag finally cut off the belt and I stepped away from it, the man seemed to stare at in confusion/horror. I turned off the hose and he then stared at the water hose, poor man must be dying to have a drink of water. I realized he had a shotgun in his hand and tensed up, I heard Splendid mumble "We're not going back." I gulped nervously and stared at the man, waiting for his next move. He pointed the gun at me and motioned me to 'come here' with the gun, I nervously walked forward. Dag tried to stop me, but I gave her a look, and she stopped. I slowly walked to the man, once I got to him I held out the hose to him. He roughly grabbed it and made me turn to the others, I heard the hose running and the sound of slurping. The man turned off the hose and threw it to the ground, I heard a chain rattle and Dag came forward. She started to try and get the mask off, but Furiosa tackled him to the ground. Then they started to fight...

I whimpered and held onto Capable, she shakily held onto me and hid my face in her shoulder. "He's gonna shred her!!" I looked at the war boy and he was blabbering on about what he wanted for his reward. The man roughly took his jack from him and knocked him out. Splendid started to walk towards the rig but was grazed with a bullet on her leg. I heard her mumbling about the Green Place. The mysterious man started to drive away and I ran towards Splendid in concern. "How does it feel?" Splendid looked at Furiosa with a 'seriously' look and answered harshly. "It hurts!"  "Out here everything hurts." Furiosa responded with a harsh tone. "You wanna make it through this? Do as I say. Now pick up what you can and run." I quickly grabbed a piece of long white cloth that belonged to Cheedo and ran alongside Furiosa to the rig. The rig slowly stopped and the man looked extremely angry by this. Furiosa started to try and negotiate with the man. The man kept refusing that we could come along, so I made an offer for him. "You want that thing off your face?" The man looked at me with a harsh stare, but I didn't back down. He harshly opened the door so Furiosa could get in, "Get in." He had a rough and low voice. We all jumped in, I grabbed the file that would help him get the mask off his face, and handed it to him. He roughly took it and started to remove the mask, the man made us give all our guns to him, which was a smart but also stupid choice. I shakily held onto Cheedo and closed my eyes, hoping for a bit of rest.
