Ride The Lightning

Part 1 : Winter Storm
............................................................................................................................................................................
By the Light of the Silvery Moon

By the light of a Silvery moon, an Owl and a PussyCat ghosted through a winter wonderland. The Owl flew high-cover on silent wings while making less sound that a whisper.
The PussyCat was on point making no more sound than a shadow.

Traveling with them was an old centaur making rather more noise. The graybeard almost stumbled. He used his staff to avoid a tumble.

“What ya thinkin ‘bout so hard there BlackBoy? Are you day dreaming? You need to pay more attention to what you are doing, old man. I’m getting tired of fixing your broken bones.” Snarked Gretchen good naturedly.

“Um..Yeah..sorry. I was thinking about how this all began” Said the old man. She had a point, he thought. He should be paying more attention to the here and now.
“I’d like to know about that.” Bubba..the pussycat... said. He was a little bit ahead of the old man and definitely out of earshot. They communicated via BoneFone.

“I would like to hear that story too.” Maverick, the Hoot Owl requested from high above, also via BoneFone.

“Count me in,” Gretchen said, she needed no BoneFone “ I was there, in a manner of speaking, but I’d like to hear what happened, from your point of view.”

“Tell us a story! You like to tell stories. That’s what truckers do!” the three of them cajoled him, as would children, which is what they were.

“Where do I start?” he teased them. They had him dead to rights. He did love to tell stories to his children. His recent life experience would make a good ‘un.”

“Duh..” Snarked BubbaCat, unseen in the dark. Bubba was a black panther and he blended into the night. “Start your story like you always do. Say ‘This is a No-Shitter!’
