Chapter 5: Fort Ark
As we set out a couple of corpses gave chase, but they soon gave up. That's when we saw the sign, well she saw it anyways.
"Look," she said, "There's a sign over there".
I was so surprised that I actually stopped, "You can talk," I inquired
"Well duh, what do I look like a retard"? This girl was really starting to piss me off.
I looked at her curved structure, what looked like a nice intellectual face and (the remains) of what must have been a beautiful dress "Yes," I lied. *Smack* she slaped me, this girl got nerve.
"You know," I replied, "I think I like you better when you kept your mouth shut". She glared at me. "Now let's look at that sign, shall we?,"
I asked. 'Fort Ark- safe haven 20 miles↑→,' was scratched into the sign probably with a knife.
"We'll head that way," I told her, "get on".

"Who goeth thaire," said a man holding an AK-47. I was thinking, dude what century were you born in. He was standing on top of a newly constructed tower/tree house that was behind a hastily erected chain link fence.
"Jack and uh..."
" Alice," (the girl pitched in).
"Why should I let you in"
"Because if you don't Jack will blast-in your face".
"Ooh, scary," he laughed lifting his AK in a flexing gesture.
I was going to apologize for her rude behavior, but no one and I mean NO ONE mocks me. So I raised my melted-off shotgun and used my two shots, the first to blast off his hat, and the second to permanently maul his rifle. As I reloaded I heard the gate crack open and Alice retorted that that was better, and that she needed to keep me around..
"Look Kid, I'm not your slave!"
"Don't call me 'Kid'," she replied, her tone getting haughtier by the minute.
"Whatever, let's go Your Majesty".
She gave me a look that said minus the sarcasm, and that's not a bad idea. So she got on my horse and started to ride in.
"Uh, Ehn-Oh" I yelled, but she ignored me. So, of course, I blew my NOT rainbow, but bone whistle (Yes Floyd, your not the only person that can read the others story, oh and while I'm at it that branch was so not by your sleeping bag, and what else was i supposed to block the acidic saliva with, my hand?!) and blew hard. Inferno (as I've taken to calling the Horse) reared, and I hope I don't need to add that Alice fell off (if I do you need to see your mental counselor), and Inferno walked on back with a snort.
***Authors Note- You probably won't understand the story part until you read Floyd's view of the story***
"Jack!" she screamed. I gave her an innocent smile, as I put the whistle back on, and jumped on Inferno. She gave me a look of pure disgust, and stormed off.
I walked off, and asked the nearest person where I could find the city manager/governor/sheriff/whatever
"He's in the gun shop getting his P90 fixed," one of the people informed me. I thanked her and walked off towards the sign that had a crossed out best buy logo on it, and now said gun shop.
