“How close is he?” Dino spoke loudly as he hurtled up the
inclining slop.
“Well,” MJ looked back, frowned and proceeded to swear
like a sailor who ran out of rum and stubbed his toe.
“I’ll take that as a too close for comfort.” No words
were muttered as they increased speed and raced deeper and higher into the
mountains, which meant no more tar road and no more houses. Only rock, snow and
occasional skeleton tree and of course the orange glow that brightened the dark
night sky and refused to give up.
MJs’ teeth clattered in the cold high speed wind, and
clung on tighter willing this impossible creature on.
“I really nee..eed to move closer to the.... ocean... and
sun.” She whispered this to herself as
she realized it was retarded of her to buy a house so far away from anything,
alone and at such a young age. She clearly remembered a green lawn and warm sun
as she purchased this new home, but clearly it was just for advertising
purposes. Magma man wheezed up hill, he
was not meant to chase things, but he was not one to quit.
The snow had become thicker by now, as Dino had to do a
semi hopping motion as to not trip, this caused great discomfort to MJ.
“Its still not deep enough!” Dino made a sudden stop and
turned to look at their assailant. Steam rose from all side of him and added to
the dramatic inevitable fate of these two unlikely acquaintances.
“Maybe you could imagine something that might remove us
from this predicament MJ?”
