up side by side on our bikes infront of the
remains of the wall. The exception being Morris,
who was no longer able to drive with his arm

The Wolf Pack started their engines and revved.
The sound was deafening, easily drowning out the
sound of the approaching Dragons’ bikes. Within

us. They paused for a moment longer then
charged at us at full speed.

I heard a clang behind me. I turned and saw
that the King had dropped his spear and was
running back to the lodge. The other hippies
waited for a moment before their courage failed,
too. They all ran.
