Gene turned before his feet had carried him more than a few steps, catching sight of a shock of red hair that was fairly familiar. “Heffron,” he greeted in his deep voice, dipping his head. “Sergeant Toye, Sergeant Guarnere.” He could see a few others, Malarkey, Muck, Luz and Penkala trailing behind, looking like they were headed somewhere. “Off for drinks, fellas?”
“Yeah,” Toye confirmed, pulling a pack of cigarettes form his pocket and sticking one in his mouth. “Gotta keep occupied somehow. Ever since they called off the last jump, it’s been boring as hell round here.”
“Well, ‘cept for the nurses,” Bill added, wiggling his eyebrows exaggeratedly.
“Speaking of nurses,” Muck ventured, catching up to the group. “How about that one that nearly scalped ya the other day, Bill? What was her problem? She said somethin’ about someone named ‘Sam.’ Now I know the good Doc over here knew what she was talkin’ about, but you still haven’t told us a damn thing. So spill. You get in trouble with that nurse’s fella or something?” Muck wouldn’t put it past Bill, but the argument the two of them had, had seemed very…strange.
I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!
A great adventure! +Imp. Documents+ +Menagerie+ +Wishlist+ +Journal+
