| My
brother and I were back at the high school I
graduated from in 1996. We were supposed to be in
class but had decided to skip out for the day.
However, we became separated and, as I was trying
to find him, I found a place inside the school
that sold magazines and comic books. DA was
trying to find us and I crouched down as he
passed by a window. While
I was crouched down, I noticed they had number 4
of 4 in the Gambit series I was
collecting. So far, I'd only bought 1/4 and I
asked the guy at the counter if they had any of
the other books in the series. He said no.
Just then, DA passed by the
shop window again and looked in. I made a break
for it.
Blackout.
It was a warm and sunny day and
my brother and I were on a huge, hilly, green
lawn. I was reminded of the college lawn for a
moment [which was just down the road from the
high school] but this lawn was more like a
wide-open field and less like a lawn.
Anyway, we were just walking...
enjoying the day. Suddenly, DA appeared and said
that we had to go back to the school. We both
knew we would get in trouble for being truant
but, for some reason, it didn't seem like a big
deal. He started escorting us back and, as we
walked, my brother and I began tumbling around in
the grass like elementary children. I tried to
walk on my hands for a while... my brother was
doing cartwheels.
A guy came over one of the
hills on a big riding mower and we moved out of
his way. We kept walking and walking and I
couldn't see the end of the lawn... but, again, I
really didn't care. I was happy just walking.
End.
