Day Three
As the sun mounts its steed and races toward the sky, a few exhausted residents of Finn Rock crawl out from their various shelters and head toward the Town Center at their own pace. Bogusbet and Trestain pass the bloodied convertible from the night before, and quickly haste away from the scene. Wicked, limping only a little now, gracefully saunters down the street holding a dying flower in her hand. Mach speaks with Master Bush about memories of peace and love and how the world now seems to be living in its own shadow. Houssam shuffles a deck of cards in his hands as he reaches the Town Center. It seems people haven't waited to form search parties and just went off looking for any dead. Reverend_kyle kicks a nearly deflated ball around through the alleys. Moz searches in a few of the town clearings and ground level buildings, but isn't able to find much of anything. Broomhead, taking the reigns himself, convinces Freetymes to search with him. Both set off toward the Northern area of town. The remaining members of the give up their casual search and begin to congregate around the Town Center, waiting for Broomhead and Freetymes to come back with any news. Freetymes sees a large pile of bodies, and tentatively pokes the mass, but all are a few days old. Toward his rear, he hears something clash and echo. Freetymes twists around holding a mop handle up in defense. A number of rats scurry away from a large and green rusted dumpster while a shoe dangles from beneath the closed lid. Mop handle poised above his head, Freetymes slowly tip toes toward the green stinky behemoth. Another faint rustle is heard on the inside of the dumpster. Freetymes cautiously pushes his mop handle toward the foot, to poke it. Just as the wooden end is inches away a large swirling and banging sound is heard from inside the dumpster. The shoe falls inside the green beast as the metal lid clangs against the rim. Freetymes jumps back in fright as a cry of pain and fear is heard from inside of the dumpster. For a moment, Freetmyes thinks he can make out soft swearing. He musters his strength, and kneels a few feet away from the dumpster. He uses the mop handle to push up the top of the dumpster lid slightly, and then with haste thrusts the pole upward and flings the lid open. A head starts to rise from inside the dumpster, but as it ascends the lid crashes against a brick wall and slams back down. Terrified, Freetymes starts to slowly back away. Just as he is about to turn and run from the scene the lid springs open and out dashes Broomhead screaming loudly, with a large purple and black bump on his head. At the sight of Broomhead, Freetyles takes off for safe haven and darts into a near building and whams the door shut. Broomhead runs for a few paces and plummets to the ground, face gliding against the rock and dirt. After a minute of lying on the ground Broomhead sits up and rubs his head vigorously. Freetymes opens the door a crack and yells out to see if Broomhead is alright. Broomhead waves him over and Freetymes checks out the extent of his injuries. Broomhead, unable to speak very clearly, points toward the dumpster. Freetymes heads to the green beast to see what Broomhead is getting at. Freetymes peers over the edge and eyes a number of decaying bodies. He lets out an excruciating wail but with deep breathing techniques he manages to calm himself once again. Freetymes helps Broomhead to his feet and each head back to the Town Center dragging their findings behind them in garbage bags.
