she looked like she’d seen a ghost? well, there was a pretty good reason for that ——– considering the being before her looked and sounded like a now dead man. carol did her best to keep up as he went on to explain just exactly who or rather what he was, and arguably, as fucking crazy as it sounded, it probably didn’t sound as crazy as it would have done had the world remained the way it was before. after all, a number of years ago, if you had told her that someday the dead would walk the earth looking to feast on the living, she would have thought you had lost your mind. but here she was, and so was he… though, it still all was quite a large pill to swallow.
“ you... you look like someone i knew. sound like him… ” again, her voice still held that edge of confusion, as did her features. he may have explained what he was, but why he was here? he hadn’t touched on that subject and so she still didn’t feel quite as though everything made sense. “ why —– why are you here? ”
now that was the unfortunate part. explaining his particular lifestyle would definitely take some time. so, he has to try and figure out how to condense it into a short version that would be easy for a human to understand. after some thought, he decides to just wing this explanation, and if she understands, great, if she don’t, tough shit.
“was part of a group, you could say. we was ravagers, best damn outlaws in the universe. stealin’ and drinkin’, doin’ jobs for people that don’t wanna do it themselves. was captain of my own crew. one thing leads to another, and i’m doin’ a job for what y’might call a god. pickin’ kids up from various planets to bring to him. well, one time i didn’t deliver, kept him for myself and i reckon thats when it all went downhill.” a shrug, as he leans against the tree. “involved in one universal warfare. came out winnin’, course. but after that, my men started doubtin’ what i do, how i lead. could call it a takeover if you will. mutiny. they appointed a new captain, and left me out here to hopefully die. but, they ain’t the smartest bunch, left me with my prize.”
another grin, and the heavy coat is pulled back to reveal the single arrow in its holder.
