<di? yle="clear:both;"></div>The Lifers aren't that far behind me? ? /><br />I'm pretty sure I'm the only normal? left. T? est took? e of themselves in fairly rapid order. U? tunate. I could use a little backup or extra? ? er.<br /? />I'm holed up in a gro? store. ? e's plenty of canned? ff here. The meat doesn'? en make me gag anymore. Can't clean ? ? ? it ? ide.? ? tle thing that changes, the Lifers notice. That's okay; like? aid, I'm used to it. Even the cat food, which I eat ? ? her meal so the good? ff l? lon It's fiber and ? ein.<br /><br />? who? hing? ? cks. It's not like I? urrounde? them, b? hey ? el in packs, the fuc? . I don't kn? hat it is about the ? le ones,? ? arently ? ou d? min? ? ? ? ? gone.<br /><br />I mean, who the he? ould? e though? eally? I mea? eally.<br /><br />Shit. Hang<br /><br />? . Thought I ? d something,? I d? think it was anythi? o worry ? t for the time being. Th? sually like to a? nce thei? esence, ? ay. ? did bac? the gym? /><br /? us, the gym.? ry n? o think ? ? too much. Still, this m? be the ? com? e firsthand account uncovere? ... welell if I know. F? e people? Al? ? Uh ...<br /><br />No, ? ? ? thoroughly fucked. ? 's okay. I could use somethi? o ta? o an? , something ? 's not going to try ? ape or kill me. Not like what happened at th? m.<br /><br />Let's see. The? ere ... ten?? be fifteen o? hiding out ? n the women's lo? room. We had a ? le cache of food, a few ? , pl? of water coming from the sh? s -- the utilities hadn't failed? . Three weeks we? e in there, hopi? hat eventually, the Life? ould overloo? and? e on? /><br />Wel? hat didn't happen. There? e a ? le of younger bo? us, maybe thirteen or fourte? ? old, and a few girls their age. That was a ? ake,? hink? ? ou know, where else could we? e gone? ? as inevitable, I guess. When? 're a bo? that age and you're cooped ? ith a gi? our age for three weeks in a single room and no way to avoid? ? ? ? ? ppen, I ? s.<br /><br />We? ? he f? one? ? ? aped open wi? ome ? tic from an old deodoran? ick, in the ? er one morning. ? sucked, because, you know, here's a body. What ? e do? ? ? Can't burn it, we'? tuck? ide with the? e. C? ? ? , we're in a locker room? h a tile floor and c? ete undeat. Can't seal i? because none of us were? ually toting? cof? around. We ? red we h? o learn to live with it.<br /><br />At l? , until the second k? ent. We'd been keeping a close eye on hi? rying not to? him? e enough pri? to get to i? o to speak. Then again, I remember d it ? he b? eat during a family ? ? ? ? one noticing, so ...<br /><br />? e ha? o bo? in an enclosed environment with? o wa? t and they just ? ? ting? er. ? ? ? ? oss. Then the girls both off? ? elves, a? ? eek after the second? . God knows how -- no mark on ei? of them? /><br />So ? bodies, the shower's gettin? ll, the air's gettin? ? thick, and ? fucking? ch -- sorry, I'm sti? isse? ? -- finally breaks a? ? s after the girls go, and while ? e al? ? , in the dead of night, she crac? he door leading ? ? ool ? ide the lock? oom, and drags all four ? ? there. Clea? p th? ail of c? lood and inn? and melting skin. Washe? in the ? er. ? back to sleep. The ? ? on the concrete und? ? ? and the sun whe? ? es.<br /? />We ge? in the morning, it's a fucking miracle.? smells ? er, a little? e like our BO than, like, de? eople. I walk in? ? hower to check on the cos, a? ? ise,? ? ? ? e Jesus, they've vanished. I know right ? who did it, she'd been bitching end? ? ince the? st c? e began to fart.<br /><br />She ? ? ? ? ? ? oke both? arms, b? e di? ? e enough time to do more, be? ? tside there ? ? ch a cla? . The bitch didn't even ditch the bo? in the pool so ? looked like the? owne? he just ? them right ? ide our ? . Li? hat Bibl? ory ? e all the firstb? ? killed because ? ? she? blood on th? ont ? or something.<br /><br />There was pounding and yelling? /><br />We ? d someone yelling, "Oh, ? le mice!" Li? he g? as laughing. "Come oCome? ! We? some cheeeese f? a!" ? ill reme? ? the voi? ounded, like the? ? ? t having a grand old time.<br /><br />Th? here? this ungodly clanging noise, which I found out later was a sheet of? rugated metal one of the Lifers had found somewhere. And then -- see, the lo? roos one wall facing No? est Boul? d, another along? le Street. A? came right through ? e those walls touched each o? . Took o? hree people. It backed out a? he c? tall? ? ? ? gh, but the Life? till? red in.<br /? />I? ? of them? h the Glock, ano? two? h the sh? n. T? est ? hem ? ? ? sed.? to e in? ? or, and ? till? t. That's ho? ? hey were. Four o? ? ? ? ough the hole, b? he L? s di? ? e a ? , there were sti? wo o? left. H? fucks. ? ay, when one of them tri? o get on? of me, I got hi? h a knife I had in my belt, ? sliced his ? right open. The oth? ? ent for the girl, I got one ? but the other one got her before I could? to him.<br /><br />So here I am? ? ndred and se? y miles later. T? ? are pil? ith dead? ? and? ? . Mountains ? hem. It was bad ? ? hen ? yone? still around, b? ince we disc? ? he Kinsey Ef? , which ? hat I call it, a? the? ? ? 's like the Lifers just ? ? s.<br /><br />What a joke. It was, at first, on the Inte? . "E? time you ma? bate, God kills a kitten." "? y ti? ou m? ? e, God k? ? ? ."<br /><br ? 's like the Garden of Eden. You can't do? wrong -- until you ? ? ter. And when you know bette? ? ? cked, be? e th? ? ? ? eve? ime. Reg? peo? eah, they couldn? ake it. ? ens and ? ies, they're? ? ou know? Innocent. F? . And wh? he Kinsey Ef? ? ? covered, things got way out of hand.<br /><br />? ? ? es, still. G? ? and everything, and? ist ? s the majority o? can't keep our hands of? ? n genitals. So a? ? eople who loved ? le baby animals offed themse? . All the people who? off on killing ? le baby animals ? ght ? as g? and did it even? e.<br /><br />So what's ? ? ? ing, ove? ? sych? hs. Dead baby animals. Good, decent ? le dead ? ? own hands.<br /? />There's a? coming. Engline? evvi? eal loud. Shouldn't haveaned? the produce section? /><br />It was all a joke.<br /? />Just a joke.<div style="c? ? ? adding-bottom:0.25em"></div><br />
