Convergence
There was a swirl of dust on the horizon
It was a lone rider
The rider's butt must have been on fire
It was tearing in from the west
Who was clearly intent on intercepting the posse
A one-horse rider going at that pace was destined for disaster
Even so, but not without regard
The posse charged on in blind faith
Hoping that it would converge with the rabble
In time to save the fearless Petra
And Shadow her Nubian sister
Who was hell-bent on chasing her sister into disaster
Dragging their kid brother with her
"Damn our luck, this wind is making tracking difficult."
"Don't lose faith now Grand Ma, you're our best chance of finding that crazy bitch sister of ours."
"Watch it Junior, or I'll wash your mouth out with soap."
"Right now, that would be an improvement on this mouth full of dust I'm chewing."
"Well do us both a favour and pull that bandana a little tighter and shut your mouth."
