A Walk In The Woods


"Drop the gun old man and nobody dies."
_____________________________________________________________________________


I hear the words as i speak them…
Its not tongue and cheek man…
I'll blaze the heat-an leave him sleepin.
cease his breathin if he gives me a reason.
"ok son everything is ok" he slowly drops his piece then
He backs away then begins just cheesin'…
I keep my eyes on him and he starts…
"I thought you could be trouble." he remarks
I reply "No i just needed some air an i hate the parks.
Then i saw a girl or I thought, she spoke to my heart!" 
His smile faded and his face became dark.
"we don't like strangers around these parts!"

Through a Fathers eyes:
________________________________________________________________

Is this boy for real? Im as good as dead…
What kind of stranger points a pistol at a mans head…
I can't listen to his lies he thinks as the sky turns RED.
I was scared but he seemed to listen to what i said,
"Son be on your way." As i pointed away towards the sun…
The boy spoke and started to lower his gun…
"Ill be gone here soon old man my day is done,
I just want to know if angels have been seen here or just the one!"
I was confused was he serious he couldn't know my girl…
He could understand the feeling she brought to my world.
Maybe we are a like this lad and I,
WAIT why is my baby got that look in her eye.
Walking towards the boy hand out stretched but why.
"No you sound crazy!" i tried to distract him with a lie.
As she grew closer i saw a look of love on her face
The boy caught my stare and spun in place


CRACK!!!!!
_______________________________

"NO!!!!!" I yelled as the smell of blood filled my nose
I wanted to rush to her side but i simply froze
Fist clenched I gritted my teeth
Guts Wrenched I shead tears in relief…
I rushed to my love leaves crunch under my feet…
I kneel down to grab her head and speak…
As the boy drops the gun and begins to just flee…
I yell at my daughter to please stay with me…
I squeeze tight to her until the medics pry me free…
They ask me what happened but i can't even breath…

_______________________________________

"We are on in five Sue!" the studio manager rings…
I slowly shuffle my papers and straighten my things…
The prompter is lit up my throat tights up…
The stage hand points and the camera lights up…
"Good Morning Urbandale, Death is todays news…
A convict off of highway 65 slays who?"…
"His own daughter, police arrested him on site…
He claims a drifter stopped and shot her." yea right…
Mans a con hes guilty."Gun was found on the ground…
Blood pooled all around
 more evidence of his parole being broken were found."
"trial is set, he is expected to get life."
Unless he gets shanked in the pen by a make shift knife!
Susan collect your thoughts clear your head…
"In unrelated news Urbandale Gang leader found dead"
Susans eyes dried a little as she read…
"Hung himself from a tree with a sign painted in red."
Susan cleared her throat 
and began to read what was wrote…

"Just a walk in the woods."
Susan whispered as she rearranged her notes.

in my eyes this was a classic drop, simply because of the work put into the continuance of the story. some of the lines were predictable, adverage wording, but it was executed well enough to follow the story line.

You took it in a weird and unexpected direction indeed. And it's not a far-fetched approach either. It feels like one of those incidents in the world that can never be explained fully but accepted because the world is crazy in itself. Really good ending and definitely had me hooked in throughout. Great job, man.

You picked up yo strory very well. Perfectly connected with the last part...loved yo sick imagery throughout.
It kept me glued from first to the last line...
2nd part was the strongest imo...But cant ignore the closing aswell. Loved the end...
Lost of props and respect,bro

this was really nice Jbrenn.  A big improvement from some of your previous works in my opinion.  Your scheme was nice but the story got away from me a little bit.  simplistic in parts.  Some sections i had to re read but overall I was it was an enjoyable read.  I liked the part that Turtle quoted

This was definitely a really enjoyable read. 
I'd have to agree with exo on the simplistic part, although it's not too bad. Just certain words you can change to affect the emotion and imagery much better.
But overall, I thought the story was very nice, and you can tell you put a lot of work into all three pieces.
Really nice work J-Brenn. You can tell you work continues to get better. 
Go my Minions!
