Chapter 3

[ 41 ]

Good evening, again friends and another good Fractal welcome, back to you all! The great ages, full of fractal sages warns one to be courageous! As you about to enter chapter seven! The fractal door creaks opens ever so slowly once more! Look yes you look!

Gaze into eternity, invisible and alone, gaze in to eternity and see, stories to frighten and make you sigh, stories to make you ask the questions why? Stories of hate, stories that make you want to debate the reason and where with all of your fate! Stories that search, quests that dare to inquirer into your private hidden puddles of desire. Mysterious Fractals galore, sure! But warning! It's going to get a little scary from now on! Better, better hold on!

[ BIG REX]

Well, sir, I didn't get much sleep, tell you the gosh darn'th truth, I couldn't. Too, many, to much crap gone down for me to sleep. I closed my eyes, my eyes all-right, but that, was about all!
But, it was hard to sleep! Anyways, the morning came! And to my surprise, I thought I heard a bird! Shucks, A bird? Wow, I thought all the birds had kicked the bucket! But now to hear one, that was a good sign!

Usually in the morning, I hears roosters, chickens, and after a while, lots a birds waking up with the day, but not, not anymore, not today. Nope, must be all dead, all except for one. I opened my eyes and looked for it, cause, it sounded close by, but I didn't see nothing!
No bird?
And the, the funny thing, was it sounded like a duck, What, wtf, would a duck be doing in these here parts alive? I got up, yawned, stretched my arms out, stretched a bit, and looked around, and dam, it's so hard to see the sky with half of it blocked by this here, enormous Earth hanging, floating orbiting up above my head. Realizing that for long as I live, this is the way it is gone be, was kick in the head for me, tell you that much! Yep, well, didn't have to do much to get ready for my expedition into the ship, I took my basics, tits, my sword, some rope, my knife and my hat and that was about that.

I took tits, my shot gun, cause you don't know what you don't know? And I grabbed my shoulder bag, and picked up my, my sword, stucked in the scabbard and I thought I, I usually don't touch it. I just leave it laying in the scabbard, but, today is a new day. So, I grabbed it, onto the belts locket, and let it hang at my side, just in case! I don't have a clue, if it is my last day, on these here Earths, but I know, I have changed somehow for the better, and I got to search, and see if its true, am the last fool alive on the Earths? Goddam, I hope not, well, lets see, I said to my self and I walked toward the ship. It was a big cruise ship. Some of these critters are ships that will measure 220,000 tons and carry a whopping 4,000 passengers, or more, onboard and run a world-class operation, but when the world ends so does the operation!

The letters on the side, were painted in big red maroon block letters, and was the size of an airplane. The base color of the hull was painted white. The bottom was black and the railings were shiny gold. And everything on the boat was cold and dead, so I, I didn't have much hope. Fumes had poured out of her, so the only way anybody could have survived, was unless they were lucky enough to be in some kind of air-bubble or air-pocket locked in a room somewhere!

Anyways, it was one of those rich folks cruise liners, mostly old folk, in their seventies retired, and the like, and like I said, this sucker, at least a minimum, was seventy five percent or more buried in the ground! Only a little bit of it, was sticking up out of the sand! So it was easy for me to throw up a rope up, and, and grab hold of any one of the set of straps, that were dangling down from the sides of it, and climb up the starboard quarter of the stern of the boat. And, and er um, shimmy my way, my way on to the aft deck of the, the ship, which was by the way, practically standing vertically. Yep, vertical like, now!

Perhaps this is the way it was supposed to end.

Perhaps this is the way it was supposed to end.

[ 42 ]

I'am coming Sally.
I'am coming Sally ha, ha, ah, . . . . won't be worth it. Bugs don't got to be scared. I had poor eyes sight and couldn't see them too good, from up here.
Then, I don't, don't know, I was way up top on the very top of the ship,
and, I was so high in the air, on the very top back of the ship, I held on to the railings, so I not would fall down to my death! And I couldn't resist taking a second, and not looking at the new Earths scenery! The dam views, were down right super amazing boy! I could see, I say I could see for the first time, hundreds, and hundreds of miles in every direction! Every which way! Wow, wow, Oh hell wow, I exclaimed enthusiastically, as I look over and over saw, the workings of God! Wow, my God, I said shocked, as I looked around, and saw the impossible! I took a deep breath, breathed in , breathed out, saw what my new world was about, and baby, sucker was beautiful! I saw a totally new perspective of where I was, and what this here new world of mine was, and where in tar, newtons, I was located on it. I was on a hill, in the hill, this ship was stuck into the Earth, all the way down except for the back where I was standing and holding on to! And around me, I looked out at the scenery, and goddam it! It was, was awesome! To my back, I saw in the distance, there was what? Another, another ship, too, wow! This one, was one of those big babies too! It was breath taking to see the thing so big, looked like a big jumbo building all shiny and brite, sitting on its stomach! It's, the kind that carries supplies, a supply ship, sitting out here in the desert! I think, if I recall, from my younger days, when I rode the seas too! It's called a reefer. Yep, not the kind I smoke! No sir, the kind that that brings food to folks. One of these days, I goner visit her, maybe sooner than later, if she got food?

Who knows! And, I swear, it looked like it was in plenty good condition too boy! Only thing, it was out of the water, and just sitting on the sand like a bad sand man ha, ha, ha! Like as if, like it was a toy from mother nature, she had, had just picked it up, and placed it down there for fun. Man! What a site! Wow baby! It was unreal! But, there, there it was, a giant ship sitting on the sand! And not far from this ship either, maybe a days walk, if I am lucky! And it was beautiful too, modern and sleek, and funny thing, the sky was blue, behind her too!

And the ship was painted the color of white with a big pale blue stripe painted across her hull! And right above it, floating in the air, in-between the upper earth and the lower earth, were the prettiest cloud formations you ever did see, lordy me! Boy, tell yall, it was just a drifting over it real spooky like.

And the light, was bouncing around, being reflected here and there, real eerie like and all. But, easy on the eyes, didn't have to squint no more! Tell you that much! No brite sunlight beaming down. It was no longer, steaming hot like before! It was cool, unreally cool, but cool! Didn't know I like cool, cause I didn't have much cool! Well, that was one good benefit, I thought to myself! I looked to my front and I saw what looked like the grand canyon of these old, United States, but triple the size! And that was scary, I tried to see, but could not see, for the life of me, the bottom? Did it go in to the center of the earth? Was there a bottom? And where the hell was the oceans, but way out on my left, to the East where the sun seemed to be rising up from. They looked awesome, I could only make out, the pale blueish white mist of them in the foggy distance, but it looked mighty pretty, pretty indeed! Yep! I don't know why but a coolness brought in on the waves of the breezes made me sneeze. I haven't sneezed in a long time! And don't got no allergies, so it was puzzling to me to all of sudden sneeze, but thats what I did, I sneezed. But I did! Something about this new Earth air, boy was affecting this rebel! I don't know what it was, but something, something about it, was affecting me! So, anyways, as I looked to my right, I looked and saw mountains, that seemed to reach up high and I swear, I couldn't be sure but, but, they seem to be roots the size of, of a country sticking up almost touching with the upper Earths surface!

[ 43 ]

And there where sections of the upper Earth, that were dangling down roots too, kind of forming a kind of web tree like network, difficult to understand. If you were to dare climb up it, you would be obliging yourself to go into the, the future Earth, or the past? It most likely would, probably would require somebody brave and daring to find out, just as long as it, ain't me! I might be crazy but, I ain't that crazy! I got enough troubles boy, believe you that! Its Like if, you can climb up, and what ever could climb down! As if the lower Earth was separated but close enough, so one could climb up on to each other and be connected? Wow, this was exciting stuff! But, my task this morning was to checkout this here ship. Keep it simple stupid, thats all! And get some stuff, for myself, like tools, clothes, foods, money, money honey and any other goodies, this here cowboy can find to keep his behind alive! I just don't know, but I fear for the worse, I thought to my self, as I got down to the serious business of climbing on down inside this big ship.

I'am coming Sally.
I'am coming Sally ha, ha, ah, . . . .

I took a deep breath, and like I said. I saw the aft deck had some compartments for the large water jugs, and I found one and pried it open and tasted it. it was warm but it was clean water, fresh water, something I hadn't seen in a long, long time,
I poured some all over my self as I held onto the rope. it felt chilly, refreshing, so good oh boy, it felt good, I hadn't bathed in god knows how long.

First, thing I thought I was, was gone need some light! Can't hold a torch or anything while climbing, so I looked in one of the compartments marked,' employees only.' and broke the lock, by prying it open. And there was a couple life jackets, and around six florescent orange body vests for emergencies, an axe, ship maps, and rapped in one of the clothes bins, I found three, flashlight lanterns. I clicked it on, sure enough, its battery was good, well, sir, no lie. That made me a happy man. Let me tell you. I was happy, about that. It made things a whole lot brighter ha, ha, ha. Yep, and so I went, holding onto the ropes.

As Big Rex, started to go deeper in the boat, he said, It was dangerous inside, it was dangerous down there, with all the chunks of metal, and glass, and wires dangling down from the ceiling, sharp pieces of metal ripped up, and just sticking out, all over, the place. Man o man, . . . I, I, . . .
If I was to get down below, passed the different decks of the ship, I needed a rope, of some kind.
I saw just what I needed. Cables lines, . . . cables lines in the ceiling! a h ha,
I took out my knife, and went toward the white, CCTV, cameras cables, that lined the roof's ceilings of the ship, and cut it and used that for a rope.
I was hungry. I could use a worm, right now, I eat anything.
Worms are good to catch fish!
Here fishy, fishy, fishy, here fishy fishy,fishy. Here fishy fishy, ha, ha, ha! Here fishy fishy, I said, there got to be one fishy down here. ha, ha, ha ha, .

[ 44 ]

I'am coming Sally.
I'am coming Sally ha, ha, ah, . . . .
You hear me Sally, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Sally is my three legged horse, said BR. BR, was going to a dark place, in his mind.
A place that he kept secret all the time.
See, he once had a horse, a three legged, a three legged horse, that he loved very much.

But Sally, that horse, had fallen madly in love with a tiny turtle! They had a complex affair.
You down there Sally?
You down there, . . . Sally? I coming sally.
Don't worry Sally.
Don't worry Sally.
You'll get over the trauma.
You'll get over the trauma. Your leg will grow back one day!

Truth was, things below deck as I went down didn't look good.
Wow, talk about destruction! Geepers creepers, man alive, talk bout dead! No jive, Folks, dead,

OH My God!
All over the place, on the floors. I had to step over them. And sometimes, there was so many, I just walked on them, and it, and it made a funny squishing sound when you walked on them too!
You make sounds when you walking on dead people, you know, bodies, and all!

[ 45 ]

Yep, tell you like it is, they were deader than a door nail in the head!

This place you could see, you could see it, it was once, it was once, a beautiful place, like a, like a, like a, palace, or something. With fine rugs, nice statues of peoples, and er and er, and all, nice, fine er, er, furniture, lots of them. Marbles stair cases, and all types goodies, amenities galore, were all over this fancy ship!

But boy, ha, ha, he he, it was trashed, bashed and ripped apart, and filthy now! He laughed ha, ha, a ha, . .

Now as, now, as I lowered myself down, that's when I, seemed, to smell something? He Sniffed, sniff! Sniff, sniff?
Well, I don't know, I thought, well sir, I thought, to my self, Wait! Just wait, a gottin pickin minute here. Hold on! I know, . . . I know, I know what that is?

It was the chemicals that were still smoldering from the fires in the walls of this here boat, this here ravaged place of the dead, but then, but then, sniff, sniff, Hmmnnn? I don't know, me, I thought, me smelled dog meat cooking, frying up! Sucker, smelled good too! I know dog meat cooking and frying up, when I smells it, cause some time back, out in the prairie, when I didn't have nothing else to eat, I caught a dog and ate the sucker. The Oder, the special whiff, informal doggy funk, sniff, sniff, was a pleasing fresh roasted smell, got me hungry, was coming from deep down in the ship! So, I held on the rope, as I lowered my self and kept looking around, didn't see nothing alive, but then I stumbled upon this tool box and managed to open it up, and it had lots of fancy tools I could use, and to my surprise, there was a small generator too! So I figured why don't I take the time to get this stuff out first, to hell with that Oder, its probably my imagination. Anyways, and this was real!

So I struggle and got this shit up deck, and down to my campsite, so for the next hour I pulled this thing open and looked through it. It was a treasure trove of tools I could use, all right, no doubt about it! And the generator, boy, that sucker worked too! This put a smile on my face! Wow, this was hot news, good news! Then I thought, there must be modern guns in the captains quarters maybe, I should try again, see what else this gangster cowboy can find!

[ 45 ]

Now, I, I got back down into the ship and again. There was a lot of different Odors, stenches, weird ass fragrances and still, and still goddam it, lingering to my suspicion, was the whiff of frying dog! Sticking out in my nostrils, distinguishing it from all the, aloof different smells. Rotting people, rotten smells of wet rugs, smells of spoiled foods but then, so I know it, and I knew I was crazy but not mad, but I am glad, and up and tried to follow the scent, and after while, about two or three decks below the floors, I think I found where the goddam smell was coming from. I was very quiet. Shhhhhe!

I, smelled dog meat cooking. Ha, ha, ha, Dog meat cooking, . . . frying up!
The sucker, smelled good too!
I know dog meat cooking and frying up, when I smells it, ha, ah, ha.
Cause, a long time ago, some time back, when I was out, in to the high lands, and I didn't have nothing, nothing to put in my tummy,. I caught me a dog, and I caught that dog, ha, ha, ha, ha, . .

And I pulled out Mama Lou my knife, an gave it hair cut, and fried that sucker up, myself, and ate the sucker, ha, ha, ha, . . . laughed BR, smiling, as he remembered the incident well!
If someone was cooking, I wanted to see for myself. Well, sir, sniff, sniff, sniff. I followed the Oder! I finally lower myself all the way down to the bottom of the ship.

Place had lots rooms. It was big, place was big, and it was dark, dark down there!

But, I was lucky,
I was so lucky, I had found a small ship, lantern, before, that had a battery, . . . one of those really old lanterns that had a battery and it worked just fine, and I was able to have some light!
I could tell by the whiff of the smell, floating in the air, down there, that the room over there, to the left, to the left of me, which had some tiny holes, punctured in its walls, was where the smell was leaking out!

So, I sneaked up, and tipped toed, and put my eyes up to a hole in the wall, and looked in. And lo and behold, there was somebody inside, ha, ha, ha, and he was not dead, he was alive! I saw a dude, a dude in a dark room, no lights, no nothing!

We'l well, . . . To give him lights, he had, he was using these tiny, little birthday cake candles lights, you know, . . . little red, orange and blue candles! That's he had!
That's what he had! that's the type of candles he had! That's what he had!

[ 46 ]

And he had them, all over the place, to give him light.
By his general appearance, BR, looked at him and thought, holy mackerel, a real live dude, ha, ha, ha, . . . He's is alive, I saw so many dead people, it's good to see one, that's alive for real, and if I am not mistaken he looked like a Dude, Fish, to me, ha, ha, ha, he said, looking at the man for a while! Looks like he'd been eating his dead dog, . . . to stay alive, said BR. The heavy metal, door to the room, where the man was, was jammed tight. He'd been sawing away at a big thick metal pipe, that apparently was forced upward, by the explosions, when the earth split apart, when it was tossing the boat around,
and it came up through the floor and jammed into the door, blocking it solid, so he could not get out of his room. So, he, he, he could not escape!

I was checking him out, and I saw he was trying to saw off that pipe, so he could get out. He was trying to get out! He sawing it with a tiny ten inch metal file! I guess that's all he had. And the dude, was filing it down with the edge of the file! Filing it and Sawing it.
Sawing it off, little by little, hour by hour, trying to get himself free, out of that room, that he was trapped in good. By the looks of it, using that little file, it would take him a while, a good while! A long, long time, ha, ha, ha heh, heh, perhaps a month, two, three! Ha, ha, ha, . . .

If he lived that long, without food, you see!

I guess he done ate the dog, to give himself some , give some, some nutriments, so he'd could hold up! Anyways, said the mad man, peeking through a hole in the wall,

I sees, the little fishy, but the little fishy, didn't know the worm was a looking, but I was! I wanted to laugh, thought BR, to himself, but he didn't want to scare the fish!

When you scare a fish, they swim away, ain't that a bitch, he thought to himself! BR, watched the man and saw, he saw that he stopped, trying to saw the pipe, and took a little break, a little rest, and sat down on the floor. It was obvious by the look on his face, the man was sad, sad, man! The man was depressed, and the burden, of knowing he doomed, left him with a heavy heart.

And, so, surrendering to the boredom, he leaned his back against the wall, and closed his eyes! It looked like he just wanted to, . . . die!
It looked like he just wanted this to all end, and you couldn't blame him!

[ 47 ]

Then after while, a little later, he raised his hand up, and scratched his nose, and picked some boogers out of his nose. He let his head dangle forward onto his chest, and just rested that way, for awhile.
He look like he was trying to, trying to sleep! BR, meanwhile poked his eye to the hole in the wall, and looked all around at things in the room. And saw on the other side of the room, And saw on the other side of the room he had, a small microwave oven, with firewood he put inside of it. Seemed he had, he had broken up a wooden chair, and use it, to fuel the fire, cause, there was no electricity to cook with. Cause, there was no electricity to cook with.
No light, in the boat! So he had to put some wood inside the microwave oven, and lit a little fire, and placed his pet dog on a stick, and cooked it!

BR, was checking everything out, and said to himself, that fishy, was one hungry fish, and fried that sucker up! Ha, ha, ha, That's how he had it set up, oven-wise!
BR said, smiling as he watched the man, who suddenly, shook his his head, and open his eyes, and woke back up! He raised himself up, and sat in chair next the table. And BR, said :

I saw the guy, said BR, I saw him, I saw the dude, waved away the flies, and on his left side, on a table, he had a bottle of Ketchup, and a jar of Skippy creamy peanut butter, and a jar of Goulden's Spicy Brown Mustard! So, I watched him, as he dipped the knife in each, and spread it on a chunk of meat, that he had ripped off the dog, and stuffed it in his mouth, and chewed it up, like a hungry pup! Hee hee ha, ha, ha, . . .

No doubt about it, The boy was hungry, and was eaten up some more dog! He was gnawing on a bone,
The boy, liked the Bones, particularly, particularly the yolk-like marrow inside, which are, which are, rich in nutrients.
I saw him, sucking on the sucker! ha, ha, ha, I saw him, sucking on the sucker! laughed BR!

That means only one thing, that dog, must of tasted mighty good, thought BR to himself, as he watched, curiously and smiling. You can tell when somebody likes what they eating! You can tell, you an just tell, he was enjoying that meat!

[ 48 ]

Apparently it tasted good too! Cause the dirty dude, smiled, and licked his fingers, too! But after while, the man, he looked sad, cried a bit, knowing his situation, and all, and coming to the realization and all, it was looking kind of hopeless, for the boy.
So, he was crying a little bit, an er, so he wipe his eyes, he wiped away some tears, and ate some more dog, to make him self happy again!
Then, he took a deep breath, got up, and he pissed in a bottle!
Then, he grabbed some hand towels, and he got down on all fours and there from outside, under his door, came a puddle of water, seeping into the room, it was seepage into room, onto the floor of his room. And the boy, he be thirsty.
he was mighty thirsty. So, he'd mopped it up in a paper hand towel, and take it, and squeeze out, squeeze out the water in the paper hand towel, squeeze it out into his mouth, and drank it up to keep alive!

I don't know, I don't bout this guy, I don't know whether this guy, if this was a good guy or a bad guy, BR, thought to himself, but he didn't want him to hear, him, so kept his breathing real low, and decided to use his ability as a ventriloquist and play a trick on the man.
He spied on him real quiet like a mouse, and then he suddenly made his voice come out of the dog, barking, in the microwave and it sounded like this, Bow wow, bow wow! Rouf bow ow!

BR, pretended the dog was barking, and it sounded like a real dog, and when the guy heard that,
it scared the hell out of the poor man, who jumped up, with his eyes wide open, and his mouth ajar, and spun around looking at the dog in the microwave! He was shocked, to hear the dog bark, and his face turned red, and he was trembling, as he stumbled, awkwardly falling backwards, and exclaimed loudly," OH MY God!" the dog, . . . is barking! the dog, . . . is barking!

The dog barked again Bow wow, bow bow wow, barked the dog!
I had to hold back my laughter, it was so funny, thought BR, to himself, enjoying every second of his mischievousness, and he wanted to get inside to get something too eat too. So, he tip toed around to the front of the door and he took his shotgun, and pulled the trigger, and blew open the door.
Boom, Ka Boom! Boom, Ka Boom!
The shotgun let out a loud blast!

[ 49 ]

The poor, Dudy fuddy dude, done fell back as the pipe and door fell back on him with plenty of force, shocked and trembling, struggling to get to his feet dazed, he looked at me all crazy like, and then, I , I walked slowly into the room, holding the shot gun in one hand, aiming it toward his mouth! And, yelled slowly and real angrily at him, in a deep voice," Hey, hey you, year you, bumble bugger bitch, Whats your name, bumble bugger bitch?"

Listen up, shut up!
There is time, and the time,
And the time, is in your hands to die.
What you do in the next words, thats out of your mouth,
will determine if you live, live or if you die, cause am gone I shoot you,
depending on what you say!
I will make you die right now!
I will take you out!
See you in this room, this is your room.
This ain't my room.
I am violating your privacy by busting in on you like this!
Ain't I? Dam right I am! I shouldn't be invading your privacy, like this! You deserve to be alone, ain't that right?
I know If a [ bleeping ] sucker, busted in on me, I 'd be pissed, too! Under normal conditions, you would, you wouldn't want me in your room would you?

So!

[ 50 ]

Cause this is your room!
And your room is your room, ain't nobodies else's room!
And your room is your coffin.
I will repeat, this room is your coffin!
Just because, I open up your coffin door, don't think you coming out! Or see life anymore?
I ain't come looking for no buddies to save!
I ain't coming to save you!
Now, now, I don't know you. To me, to me, you is dead. See, I come from life, to find dead alive, but not dead really, but almost, and that's, you!
I got friends. The bugs are my friends!
My buddies are bugs. You ain't no bug!
I am gone ask you some more things, some questions, but you don't dare answer or say a word to me, cause I will pull the trigger!
If you understand, what I am saying to you, nod, you nod your dam head, I said to the man, and thought to my self, as I looked at him, as he stands before me, nodding his head up and down, shaking like , like trembling , fearful of me, and it got me, a thinking. Thinking how in life we fear, and the fact is, the only thing, we got to fear is bumble bugger fear it self! We fear, cause we know our bodies are fragile. I guess, thats what mother nature wanted it to be, fragile, I thought! Then, I squinted my eyes, and looked goddam at him, and said, " stop trembling! Or I'll shoot you for sure!"
The man stopped, stuck his hands up in the air and didn't shake as much as before. Year, he was having tiny tremors, all right, but, I over looked that! He was breathing fast. I imagined I could hear his heart beating faster, as his blood pressure rose up off the charts!
He was sweating goo gobs of sweat, too, pouring out of his forehead, the sweat ran meandering down the contours of his cheeks, ran down upon his upper lip, down his neck, down into his shirt, as his eyes would flicker, looking between the gun barrel, and me.

[ 51 ]

You know what ?
Up against the wall Bug, I told him pushing him up against it, he got up against the wall like duck tape,
as I quickly patted him down, the result of which, I found on him, a small German luger gun, a M92 pistol, which I happily confiscated.
Turn and look at me, I demanded.
You not gone need a gun no more.
You know what ?
Do you know who I am ? You can call me , "BR."
You know what I do, I do with my buddies?
Up top, I put my bug buddies in a pot in a bucket of hot boiling gold, hot gold, they die in gold.
They die rich! They die in my gold! Cause I, I fry them!
Just like you frying that dog, I said to him nodding my head, and said flatly to him,
Ok, good job.

[ 52 ]

Now you can speak, I said to him as I lowered my tits. Mind If I have some, I asked nodding my head toward the dog meat, that was burning up in the micro wave.
Su, su, sure ,sure help your self. Please! Its all I got have some! He answered, whispering, whimpering stuttering ever fearfully.
Thanks, I said calmly, as I walked over pulled, out my sword and shaved off a slice and put it in my mouth, hmmmnn, I said, commenting on its funky flavor. Kind of hammy tasting!
Mind if I lower my hands, he asked me. Sure, retorted BR, smiling like the gangsters cowboy he is!
Then he turned and said, softly asking, Whats your name, bumble bugger bitch?
Jon,jo jon jona jonathan, he said stuttering in pure fear of the man in the room with him. He knew this guy, was insane, nothing subdued or subtile about his crazy threats! He's dangerous, a ticking time bomb, ready to go off! He has been too loose to long! He, should of been, put away a long time ago! But, he didn't know what to say or do. The insane man, had an abhorrently low sense of the value of life, the consequences would no doubt, mean he would loose his chance to live today, this hour, this minute, by a mad, mad man! He played along as best he could, first he thought, that this man had come to rescue him. That he was going to live, but now, he realized, the man in the room, this guy who goes by the initials "BR," wasn't really normal! He's mad! There would be nobody, to offer condolences, he would die alone this day! And, he had better adjust to this situation, fast, real fast, and his only hope was to gear him, persuade him that he was a good man, who has some value, and somehow prompt him into rescuing him. It was obvious, by the man's appearance, a sword, shotgun, raggedy clothes, this individual was residual damage goods, warranting enclosure in a mental facility immediately! But that was not an option now, so, he would have to play along for now to see if he would get out alive!
The man stood there, put away his sword, but was still holding his shotgun, casually in the other hand, as he tilted his head, looking at him. He was sloppily chewing. He walked a few steps, and said with a very pensive tone, that name , your name, Jonathan? Yes, he answered, my name is jonathan!

[ 53 ]

Jonathan He said, in a low deathly kind of way, Jon, you got a name that lies! What, he said. Jon sounds like john. Than, sounds like thin, don't it? Yes , it does, he said, looking at this mad man. The two men in the room are in a fork in the road, feeling each others personality out. I think Jon, you ain't thin at all, fact you kind of chubby, am I right ? He asked him, the man answered, I guess so. What do you mean you guess? Either john you are thin or you not thin. Am I right?
Sure, he answered, you're right, nodding his head, and for the first time flashing a pretentious friendly smile to BR. He obviously, was trying to calm his nerves and fit into the narrow window of reality this madman was living in. It was important that he be successful. He knew, his life depended upon it!
And he said, jokingly to BR, to call my self instead of Jonathan, which sounds like John is thin, I could call my self, John is fat.
to be, that would be more accurate, since like you say I am a little on the chubby side, he said, in a low timid voice, daring to smile just a little bitty smile!
BR, on hearing that, responded by tilting his head to the other side, and flashed another pretentious smile.
Now, the man was showing, he to, was no fool too, and had the courage to speak his mind, something, that impressed BR. Both men, looking in to their eyes, and into their souls of the other now! Then all of a sudden all bets were off. Big Rex, turned quickly, raised up the shotgun and resumed aiming it at his face!

I like shotguns , I said as I held the shotgun steady as a rock at him, as the boy stood up, quickly raising back up his hands up over his head. The look of fear returned back to his face big time!

[ 54 ]

Thinking to myself, I said, well, well, sir,
unfortunately, I have a bad habit of changing my bugger mind from time to time,
From time to time I do. Don't rightly know what gets over me, especially in this room, see I, see I see the boy, and I see behind the boy, the flickering lights from the candle, I see all these shadows moving! Now, he don't got no where to go! Shucks, you know what I mean?
He don't got no place to go!
He hasn't seen, what I seen. He, don't know the planet has split in two. Things, ain't nice, outside, this here boat.

Ain't, nothing the same! The world ain't like it was. He has not seen what the world is like, now, next thing, then I looked around at him, I do look at him, and he looked like he was doing a whole lot of hard thinking, so I yelled, "Shut up the hell up, stop thinking!"

[ 55 ]

So, guess what, the man, backed up. His body stiffened up. He shook his head, while his hands were high over his head, said, OK! OK! I'll stop, please don't shoot, I'll stop!
Boy, was shocked a lot, almost pissed in his pants, by the looks of him, he wasn't expecting me to say that!

I thought to my self, I should leave him here! But maybe I can use him, after all, I don't want to be greedy, and be the only man left alive! Perhaps if I let him live, I will have live company, for a change. Truth be told, I do get bored, and I am tired of talking to my self, talking to bugs! We don't got nothing in common. Besides he's not a bug. Will he talk to bugs?
Will my bugs talk to him? If, I do take him with me, He is goner have to stay with me, and listen to me, if he don't listen to me, I will bring him back down here and throw his ass back in his room and block back up the dam doorway for ever!

[ 56 ]

While I was thinking, I held the shotgun, and kept it aimed at his mouth, and he, scared, let his mouth hang open. His eyes were wide open, eyeing me, then he pleaded with me, please, I thought you, you were, I don't know. I , thought you've come, well. You know, come to save me. look, he said stuttering, please don't shoot, I listen I, he said muttering and rambling traumatized, he held his hands back up straight in the air, they shook with fear.
You know, you know, Its funny when a man has almost lost everything, has almost lost his life, you know what mean, struggled hard as hell to keep it. Then, comes face to face with loosing it again. But still, I was dead serious with this here boy.
So, I looked at the man, he was, oh, about shucks, maybe 27, years old. Maybe a little more, don't rightly know, don't rightly care. He had on a white shirt, that was filthy, with what appeared to be oil, or blood, that turned some black colors, like staining on it. He had a light orange tinted beard, beard about two inches long or there abouts. And the boy was sporting, a gold necklace with a tiny Aquarius sign on it, and I thought hmmm, well he can't be all bad! Sometimes folks, sometimes wear stuff to look stylish, or something. Why, didn't know, and sure in hell didn't give a dam? But, all in all, he had a decent look to him, though, but even Looks can be deceiving! He was wearing black pants and, and he had a belt with a Iphone and blackberry case on it, and a keychain. A silver one, with a strapped going straight down into his right side pants pocket! His face was kind of round and sort of puffy. He was sweating profusely. His eyes were kind of pale blueish grey, best I could tell. And he looked to me plenty scared. Boy, was trembling something awful, again, but I wasn't gone ask him to stop again. I guess I am getting soft with him, as time went on.

[ 57 ]

I was checking him out good, his beard was stained with some food he was eating!
That ain't nothing, cause my beard is too!
Whats your last name bumble bugger bitch, I asked him, one more time, as he stood there in front of my guns barrels, quickly fearing for his life. His eyes popping out scared as all get go, shocked. What, you want to know my name? He asked. What is your last name? Jonathan Noubaum is my whole name, he said. His voice was a little on the high side, now, he was nervous. So. I nodded my head, glanced my eyes to the dog cooking on the microwave, then refocused on his eyes squarely, and asked, That dog taste good to you? He stood there, not answering, looking befuddled, as if he didn't understand my question so I asked him again. Am gonna ask you nice, once more only, taste nice? Year, kind of, he replied hesitantly, faking a smile. I cocked the trigger, it made a cold blooded metal snapping sound, in the dead silence of the room, the only sounds was his breathing, and mind. He got the picture, I would shoot, but then suddenly I don't know, I made up my mind I would give a chance, and let him live! I burst out laughing ,ha, ha, ha, Come on, brother, ha, ha, ha, I said laughingly at him and smiling! And I blinked at him, to ease his fears as I said, you're my type of people, live! I could use some live company. Shit, only type I've seen, on this here boat was dead. ha, ha, ha. You can take a joke can't you?

[ 58 ]

And with him hearing that, he breathed a big sigh of relief, concluding, I wasn't gone blast him. He lowered his hands, that he had been holding them straight up in the air all this time, as a sign of surrender. I know his arms must have been hurting!
But something told me to check his identification, maybe the name he gave was a lie, maybe, but maybe not! Anyways, I said to him, lets see you wallet.

You got to be kidding, I thought you wanted to save me, you just said you were joking?

Thats what they all say! Ha, ha, ha! Besides guns on cruise ships are not allowed, So come you had one?
I, I er um, er , My work, I work for a private scientific research firm. The firm got me a License, with an exemption, he snapped, he said as pulled from his pocket a black wallet and handed it over.
I took his wallet, and Iphone. I found two hundred dollars in the wallet, and took one for me, and I told him, I've taken one hundred dollars cause I saved your life, you got a problem with that, or should I leave you here to die?
No, no of course, its fine, no problem he exclaimed smiling!

[ 59 ]

Good, I told him as I took out his Drivers license, and I calmly read his identification, his name, yep, was the same, Jonathan Noubaum. So the boy was telling the truth so far at least! He relaxed and found a spot and sat down, while I went trough his stuff.
Date of birth 1998, car registered in Miami Florida, a state boy I thought. Hmmm. What business you got in florida boy? I went to school there! Jets fan ? He looked around at me, and smiled, then faced forward again, yes! Meanwhile, I found his papers, they looked in order. Inside was a un-mailed letter he was writing to his mom. I read the letter quietly and silently to my self, as he sat up against the far wall.

Dear ma, we are having a great time! Guess what, Jasmine told me we are pregnant, what I mean is, she is! Ain't that great? I will write again, soon! I am also sending you emails too, although I know you don't check yours often. But anyway, one way or another I will keep in touch. Tell pop, I love him, forgive me about harold, tell the boys to behave and watch out, what they put on face book! Other wise they'll get nothing, when we return. Please tell the girl taking care of our place, to feed the pets fish. She doesn't seem too bright. Ok, thats all! Expect to arrive in Germany soon. This ship is wonderful. The guys are courteous. I have little to complain about, and my experiments on the bacteria, is working out. The radioactivity, from the Japanese waste is affecting my specimens, just as I thought it would. If I am right it could be big, anyway we'll talk more, included in the letter are some photos we took today this morning. Enjoy Jonathan, Jasmine, sends her love too! Mom, she such a great wife, she elevates my spirits! Love, bye. Jonathan.
I snapped opened his I phone, and thought at first I didn't know to much about how to work it, but then I realized the goddam internet is dead too, along with the rest of the world. So, I returned it, and put the letter back in his wallet and handed it back to him too!

[ 60 ]

There were two small compact suitcases on the floor, I open one suitcase up sitting next to the bed across from this big beam sticking out of the wall. It was the silver carrying case, the type you use to carry laptops and in it there were notes, on his battery powered laptop, and it said something about, talking about radioactive something or other. I didn't much know, what the hell he was talking about? Then after reading his notes, I open the other suitcase and it was full of microscopes stuff, I guess this was what he is working on, I read one note, where he described, altering an atom and that the nucleus was growing out of control due to contamination, from radioactivity bugs. I closed it back, cause, I sure in hell don't want to catch no radioactive bugs! I already got plenty bugs already! Don't need no strange ones! And I picked the suitcase up and tapped him on his shoulder, and asked him, you in physics? Year!
I think you're ok, for now, I told him. He was quiet, as I held up the suit case up to him! And he reached for it, but I quickly pulled it back, and said, I wasn't giving it to you, I was just showing it to you cause I want to know whats going on with this stuff?
That stuff, is my, my experiments! I am doing experiments to find out if there are any radioactive mutations caused by the Japans nuclear melt downs Oh, interesting, ok!?

Well, I said, I am gonna hold on to it for you for now, you will get it back in time, now relax! But, don't take me searching you, personal, like, I am just checking you out, thats all, making sure you're were one of the good guys! Good guys? What is that supposed to mean, he asked showing consternation in his tone? I'll tell you later. What science you doing boy?

I am be fan of the New Zealand scientist Ernest Rutherford. The man's credited as being the father of nuclear physics for his discoveries in atomic structure. I like studying him, I study a lot! But right now, that's not what I want to talk about, how about us getting out of here?

I am studying tool, I replied to him seriously, but he retorted sarcastically, exclaiming : Yoouuuuu! And he laughed. ha, ha,ha, Then I told him, matter a factly. I am a kind of scientist too! What? You, dressed like that, give me a break! What are you studying, he asked contemptuously?
I am studying you boy, and something tells me, you want to get out of here?

BIG REX

Chapter 4

[ 62 ]

Hell yes, that's what I thought you were here for!

Nope, nope,
That's not what I am here for!
Nope, nope nope!

And who are you? Who the hell are you to laugh at me? Did I tell you, you could laugh at me?
Did I? Answer me, boy?
The man looked at Big Rex puzzlingly, and thinking to himself very seriously, he found himself in danger once more. My god, he said to himself, what have I done? What, have I done, oh no. Big Rex's reactions , his reactions to the things, he said about him. Things he thought were OK, because Big Rex, claimed he was just joking, joking about everything, was a lie! A Goddam lie! And the fact that he was laughing at him, are having now, having unsuspected consequences! Consequences, the reverberation of which might mean he winds up dead after all? Because, he forgot he was not dealing with a rational person, but, that he was dealing with an insane person.
But, now, he now dramatically sees his understandings of what is permissible to say to an insane person, is a thing, he will lose his life for! He would have to surmount a deranged mind, and he would, if he wanted to live. He would have to see this reality kick in fast, now, big time!

He would have to be extremely cautious, in what he says, what mannerisms, he can express, because this guy in front of him is on a different plain, in the insane. His sense of self esteem, plummeted, what he had done was to say and think what was on his mind, but if he wanted to make sure he would live, he won't do that again. But what are the boundaries?

[ 63 ]

The line in the sand between his concept of reality, and this guys sense of reality, don't add up!
BR, had an accent like a southerner, He was fair complexioned, but his skin was dark, deeply tanned by the sun, like he been living outside all his life! His beard made him look like a lion, the sun turned his hair into strands of silvers and blackish brown with blondish colorings like a lion beast, his eyes brown with reflection of green in them, like something deathly. Despite that his smile was handsome, but his mind, his mind was intriguing and dangerous at the same time. He felt that talking with Big Rex, was equivalent to playing Russian Roulette, which is a dangerously deadly game to play! But, what choice did he have?
From his standpoint, the decision would have to be, please get along at any price, with this man, if you wanted to live.
You can indulge him conversation, but there is nothing, nothing he can do now?
He laughed at him, now what would be the penalty He would have to suffer? He gather up all his understanding and conjured up in his mind a strategy to placate the gun holder, less he suffer death!

He had nothing to pretend to respond with, or nothing he could think of. What could he say?
Then it dawned on him, he could be nuts too, so he mounted a counter psychological offense, and gathered up the courage to say, hey, I been locked away in a hole down in this boat, and I laugh at anything, anything to keep me from going nuts, what if you were locked up, in this coffin, wouldn't you laugh and say anything to stay sane?

Now, that clever pre thought out remark was a bullet, that hit BR, right smack in the head, and he said,
Sure , just as long as you don't do it to me! Just as long as you don't do it to me again, got that, Boy!
See I am mad! I am beyond nuts! Do you know what nuts means, boy? Listen, I wish you'd stop calling me boy!
Nope! You don't wish around me boy! Only boy that wishes around me boy, is me!
Now, listen up, and listen up good, Bumble bugger bitch! Heres the deal, take it or leave it,
I didn't come, to save your ass!

[ 64 ]

I didn't come looking to save anybody! But if I do save you, you, boy, belong to me!
You'll do what I say, go where I say, and when I say it! And now that the world has ended, anybody I find, and save is gone belong to my gang of survivors! Because listening to you, got me thinking, there might be others, so right now, I got a gang. Right now I got a gang with one member, and that member is you!
Right now, I am missing some members, cause they have fallen on hard times! And you, you are gonna be in my gang, cause I am a Gangster, cowboy! You got that boy! You want to live the rest of your life outside of this room? But, if I am going to take you out of this room, your coffin room, then you gone be part of my gang, and listen to me, if you don't I will kill you! Simple as all that! Decisions yours boy!
If I decide to take you outside of your coffin, you will work along at my side or not? Make up your mind, it's yes, or it's no? What? What are you saying? Are you serious?
You a grown son of a bitch man! If you don't agree scientists boy, I, ain't gone shoot you, no no, noooo sir!
Not me, not me no no, noooo sir!
When I kill a man for fun, I use my sword!
But, this time, this time, If you don't want to be in my gang?
I am going to blow out your candles, all of them, take all your Goddam matches, all them bad boys!
I am gone eat the rest of your Dog! Put some mustard on that bad hot dog!

[ 65 ]

Do you like hot dogs, I like hot dogs!
I always did! When I buy a hot dog, I want everything on it, onions, mustard, shucks! And a coke, ice cold!, I said smiling broadly at him!
See I like dog, thats why I came down here to bottom of the [ BLEEPING ] ship, cause I was smelling the funky smell of hot dogs! I wanted to have some dog! I am gonna put back on that dam door, and put it back, block up it with some shit , real good so you can't get out!
Gone mop up that little stream of water coming in under your door, that you been drinking off the floor.
I gone make sure you can't get out, just like before!
Gone make sure its dark, dark do you hear, in here! Just like before!
Then, I am gone light up a joint.
Then, I am gone say good bye to you, real softly, bumble bugger bitch!
Then, I gone walk, walk away! And say to you, have a nice day!

[ 66 ]

Well, sir, I thought to my self. There was a long silence, as the boy pondered my words! This boy, smart!
This boy, boy looked at me , looking and looking at me!
Boy, was doing something, some hard ass thinking.
Being a scientist boy, he gone think I am full of shit, if he does, he gone be wrong!
Funny, yep funny, how when you in a room, you, you in a, you are in a room, and somebody is thinking, thinking real hard, you can feel his little old wheels in his head, going around and around and around!
I remember, couple years back, when things was different for me, I had just got out, out of the service, I was in the North east at the time, New York City, and right under neath the Brooklyn bridge, there was this, this here, Merry go round, going, round and round, full a little babies, going round, driving those little babies crazies! I don't be ducking when I am trucking! I hold down don't regurgitate, I facilitate! I take the train to the insane! I don't take the IRT, Irresponsible Rubbish Trains for the insane masses, no, not me!

[ 67 ]

I remember. I remember back in the service. I met up with a dude, his name was Pham Charlie. I jokingly, remember we used to call the boy spam jam Pham, he was Vietnamese American in the valley, smart sucker, smart jocksucker! Goddam! Smart! And he, me, and another animal, called , Alejandro Georgey porgy, a Puerto Rican dude, The three musketeers of nano brain apps. We hooked up, man, shit! We hooked up some nano drugs, for intercellular divert system apps, to penetrate the Blood Brain Barrier! These suckers were bad!
Use these suckers, when you gone have augmented virtual sex in they real world. You check it out the parameters, do your input, turn they shit on, and bang, sucker is rocking, you hook your glasses up. Turn on, tune out, and, bam Bam! You know, some folks like to have augmented sex, right! Dreams while having sex, so being the wild mothers [ bleeping ] programmers we were, with itched bit up this app, to use along with the Big G, You know, you put your HUD, retrieve cool music, hop into a virtual environment, and plunk yourself down with your bitch, chill-out, get down and play the virtual reality way! Cause, we dudes, were a little on the, the, the advance side, and everything, was every thing! Everything was cool, we had buddies back in the states, who were employees at the big G. They stole some bad, shit from them, and sent the G crap secrets to us! Shipped us out three Google glasses prototypes, in a box, marked Support and honor U.S. military service members! We got boxes of gifts of goodies for soldiers on duty, and it got through, cause I had this pretty slick chick, this girl was working in the security check out the incoming deliveries of mail and care packages for the soldiers! She checked it out, as ok, you know, we had the usual in it, like Chewing gum, Cookies, Coffee, Gatorade, Jaw breakers, and hell year, Poker games, Playing cards, Dice, Porno mags, Weed, Smokes, Music CDs, you name it, we had it mixed in the box!
You believe that, we were bad, and we rejoiced when we got that stuff!
Year, bad old days, those were the days. Back in those days, I wasn't crazy, quite the opposite! Awesome [ BLEEPING ] times! Those long gone days, anyway, and we ran with these [ bleeping ] sockets, had good experiments going down, all of us all. The three of us, kept our big ass mouths shut, less we get, you know, loose lips sink ships! Get, get caught!
This was, what was going down. But, don't know, unfortunately, we got hit. Yep sir, war is a bitch!
And The IED, that did us in, changed all. They are dead, I survived. The codes I knew I pretty much forgot! Now I am small, and now I am, I am here, lonely crazy cowboy sitting inside a boat in a world destroyed! Shit, I was born on Earth, now Earth done up, and split in two, Lordy me, whats a freaking cowboy to do?
Well, Get over it! I told myself! But listening to this scientist boy, brought back some long buried flash backs! But, although my mind is all messed up. Now and then, now and then, I recall snippets, of the man I'd been.

[ 68 ]

But anyway, I thought to my self as I looked into the boys eyes, I could hear, his brain doing the merry go round thing, in this here room. Room, ever been in a room, four walls?
One , two, three, four! And if your lucky you got a door! When you in a room like this room, his coffin room, and the only light you got, is candle light, it makes everything look nice, but because it makes everything look nice, doesn't mean the world is nice! Like folks, some smile, smile smiling at you, make like they your buddy, when they ain't! I cut them boys, but thats another story. Anyways, I am in this here room, with one candle, and one shaky makey man!

Things look all shaky like! I like shaky light! Shaky candle is cool lite especial if in a dark room with one candle, shadows move, move around. You begin to hear things, voices yep. Then all of sudden the scientist boy interrupted my train of thought ,as he yelled out, All right, all right. all right goddam it get me the hell out! I 'll do what ever you say! What ever! But, that box, that suitcase, I got to have it its important. It's my work, its just very important, he said, apparently he was worried about it, by the way he said it so passionately. I thought it must be really important to him, so I said its negotiable For now. I'll hold on to it. I'll put it in my bag, and we will climb out of your coffin!
But if you telling me you agree, and double-cross me, I'll kill you! Agreed? Yes, he said!
So, be smart, so I want you to say it, the contract is I am saving your life and you now owe me. Say it, what is the contract? You will save me and I owe you! And you will listen to me. I will listen to you!
Good, I said, now, say good bye to you coffin boy, we getting out of here. Blow out those candles, and the fire in the microwave.
Sure.
Wait, what did you say to me? I said, sure! No, boy, thats not how you talk to me. Thats not how you dare talk to me! You are to address me always, as boss, say sure boss!
Sure boss!

Better!

[ 69 ]
Now, you know something?
What boss?
There once was a little old lady who lived in a shoe, if I ever catch up to her I'll know what to do, ha, ha, ha, I laughed mightily joking with myself, as the confused soul standing in front of me stumbled out of his room.
The boy smelt bad, just like me, ha, ha, ha, I laughed again.
He didn't know what the joke was about but he smiled and burst out laughing anyhow.

Now, Now come here I told him, as he emerged, brite eyed, eager and smiling as he strolled out, out of the doorway, to his coffin room looking around, but he couldn't really see nothing. It was dark, where he had been trapped. I set the flashlight on the floor.
Turn around I said to him. He looked at me puzzled, and I know he wanted to ask why, but he hesitated and didn't. Put your head down towards me a little like you're bowing, he looked at me again real curious like. Funny like, but the man listened. He bent over, but tilted his head up, to keep a sharp eye on me.

Blind folding you, boy, so relax. I took out this black bandana, from around my neck, and blind folded the man. Whats the blind fold for boss? Don't worry about it, take hold of this, I said handing him a piece of chain. And, he proceeded to take hold of it, and as I walked, he followed blindly. So, so it was, I took the dummy away. I was thinking to my self now.

[ 70 ]

I been, alone so many long months in the desert before the world came to an end, and split apart, that I almost kind of, kind of hungered for somebody to talk to, even if it had to be a the point of a gun.

Cause, Jonathan, this boy, he'd have to make his keep, Hold his own. He don't know it, but the world he knew is gone, The world up stairs is my world, and he is the first person who gone enter it!

The both of us gone have to survive one way or another.

I don't have a clue how we gone eat, or drink, but I figure this is big ass boat got plenty of stuff in it. Sure got to be food on it somewhere, and this boy is gone help me find it, if not, Shucks! It, well, sir, if not, we both will die. Cause I got just enough food, grub in my saddle bag for one day, for me alone. Before this all happen, I if needed food, I just up and go hunting, shoot something to eat. And. if by chance some travelers came into the desert, I'd buy some provisions from them.

But, now, no animals alive, best I can tell, If they are they sure in hell ain't around here for hundreds of miles, I know, cause I took this binoculars off a dead dude, and check it out. I searched high and low. High and low, I tell you! Didn't find shit. Nothing to shoot, and eat, no sheep, no cows, no bears, not even one [ BLEEPING ] bird in the sky, now ain't that a bitch, but where? Tell you boy, tell you.

Not a stream to go fishing. Cause there got to be streams, with water some where, some place, but not knowing the hell where, ain't gone help me none shit! I spotted a water hole like a tiny lake bout half mile away! no fish in it, no way!

I know the oceans are still circling out there near the horizon, but that'll take me and him, a couple years to walk that far, we be long dead. And the oceans, who knows? Might be, could be, will be full of carcasses of dead fish, too!

[ 71 ]

Who the hell knows?
Cause mother nature, old girl, she, she's a bitch, she is still alive, and kicking, she'd figure out, something in couple hundred years, cause by then, I been a long dead memory.

Best thing would be, to have a little rain, but how can it rain? How can it rain? How on earth, can it rain, if the other big earth is up above, so close up in the sky. Only thing, I figure maybe the storms will rain side ways like, or something. I wonder if those boys in the International space Station are still alive looking down. Must suck, knowing you gone die up there, you gone die, cause ain't got no shuttles coming ever! Might as well hang it up brother! Any ways speaking about rain, it would have to blow sideways to get to me! That would take some mighty big winds to pull that off! Oh shit, what if it never rains! Oh my God, gosh, I didn't even think of that possibility? Man, I sure do miss the old world, at least I knew how to act, what time it is, and what to do to survive!

I hate to admit it I love earth, sniff, sniff!

Sure, all this will rectify sure. I know, yep sir, yes, sir ree bob! Over time, but in the mean time, I am dead man, going hungry, and that ain't no bull_s.
Don't got no food!

Neither us gone make it. I thought, pondering deeply our chances.
No grass. Grass has been replaced by molten rocks thats shiny like glass, and lava flows, boulders and dry, dry gritty sand, dry in your eye sand, like what you find on a hot beach. Cause I got, got to believe, that since the earth got tossed around a few times, under neath all that sand and debris, and stuff, there got to be, got to be, good fertilized dark brown farm dirt, perfect for farming and all. But then again who knows. And who hell can dig that far down. The machines like them big old tractors, bulldozers, earth moving machines, them boys are all buried.

They're, are buried, smashed ripped apart or just plain no where to be seen. I am lucky there's plenty hand shovels aboard, at least I can dig my own grave and sleep comfortably!

[ 72 ]

And water, well there's plenty of that on the boat. We gone have plenty, cause I found some water cooler jugs. But, we'll see how I make out, and this boy Jonathan, if it turns out, if it happens that, he causes me more trouble than I bargained for, he'll wind up food! I got Irish, Spanish, Mexican and a touch of Maories american in me too, if you know anything about our history, we Maories boys eat just about anything! When things where bad, in the desert, and I had nothing to eat, I ate bugs, so he can't taste much worse!

Anyway, he was gathering up the plastic bags around his shoulders, trying to accommodate it and balance it, so it would easy to carry it up! So, I said to him, wait, I want you to grab on to this rope and hoist your self up, to the next level. Great! er, um, I, I mean great boss!

Go you can start, I told him, and I lifted the plastic bag and tied it around his neck for him. Go on with yourself. Just remember, as you go up hold tight, and you'll be up there in no time, you gone feel the underside of a deck, once there, I will tell you, then, take your time, take it slow, and carefully toss up the bag. Then pull yourself up and wait for me. That's it! Got it ?
Sure Boss! I led him to where, I had the ropes hanging down, and took his hands and let him touch the ropes, and he automatically grabbed them and the cables.
These wires and cables, this is the rope, you're talking about, why, I don't know, why, can't we use the stairs boss? Sure, I said, this boy, was Lordy me, so clueless about the devastation all around him there ain't no stairs elevators, nothing, but, I snapped back at him in jolly good golly good spirited mood, exercise is good for ass sucker, now go ahead and do what I say!
you, I exclaimed ruefully smirking at his awkward attempts to get him self up off of the ground, and, I couldn't help but not hinting to him this titbit, I said,
go ahead and climb, but on hold tight, if you fall, you fall, you die! Got you boss, he replied in a strong self assured voice, determined and trusting in me, something he'd have to learn to do, if he wanted to live.
So, I stood back aways and watched him grasping the rope, he figured around with the cables and I could see him be somewhat relived, when he found I had sense enough to put knots in them every couple of feet, or so it would be easier to haul up on. I wasn't a bit worried, I got down here, and sure in hell, I knows how to get out, but he don't gotta know nothing, less I wanted him to. I know it would be a long difficult climb. I watched the man climbing the ropes, he was disoriented, but kept trying to go forward, and shucks, thats all you need to get up.

[ 73 ]

Anyways, he was reaching the hole through the deck, flooring where I had the ropes hanging down, but it had some sharp jagged protruding metals hanging down, that could cut slice him badly, if he touches it. He didn't see it, and couldn't, so I guided the boy, as best I could. I warned him he must'ant, put his hand out to his sides, cause they are sharp razor ribbons near by, and just keep his body straight around the rope as tight as he could be and he would be just find. Well, sir that boy, as soon as he reached the edge of the hole and felt the platform and metal deck floors, the boy upped and yelled out, hey, am I nearly outside yet?

You don't go asking stupid questions, now, do you hear. If you were outside you could tell it, smell it and see the sunshine! Now where you're at, thats just one of the levels, we got to climb, boy, there lots more where that one came from. Climb on up boy, to get to back to the uppers decks, where I come from, gone take some doing! No need, not to take heed, and go slow, and make it, than to go fast, and fall on your ass! Lets get to the next deck above. So just chill, boy, I am coming up now, hold on!

Now, what I did, was I gathered up my things, the bag and all, and tied a string around tits, my shotgun and taped my sword tightly, and carefully, so it won't fall out, because if it did, I could kiss, that mother good bye, that the last sword in the world, for who knows how long. Once Jonathan got himself up, and I caught on the rope, I looked around with the flashlight and I yelled, back to him, here I come. As I grabbed the rope myself, and started climbing up, about a couple of minutes later I too, got up on the next deck with him. The man, he was laying there stretched out, panting, bewildered that he has gotten up here. Like it was a big deal!
I took a deep breath, then I glanced and turned to him and said, yo, you did good dude, get to your feet, now and take hold of this chain, I told him as I flipped out a length of chain I had around my waist. And he grasped it, and I led him down, oh lets see, maybe, about two hundred yards, through dark twisted corridors, with half slashed hanging ceiling beams, some big, big pipes painted in hilarious, riotous circus colors, like red, blue, yellow, orange each color signaling a function, you know the engineers get high painting pipes, thats their thing. You know, hey like make up special colors for hot water, cold water, standpipes, you could just imagine it all. It wasn't pretty though, it looked like a jazzy scary, sort of like a cave carnival circus of doom. The scene was macabre. The smell was bad. So bad, it was sad! We're talking dead body hump funk stink, fumes gazooms! Yo, cowboy, yo, y'all know what, what I mean, there is a reason for putting your behind in the ground when you kick the bucket! Anyways, done did what we had to do. I held my nose and hopped over a chick with no head, dress in pink high heel shoes, sure, when she was alive, she was a looker!
We passed by dozens of broken beams with shark shaped like teeth like endings. If you had the misfortune, and were to trip, and fall on one, you'd be done for. All the broken pipes, were dripping some fouled smelling sludge or liquids. Drip, drip, dripping down. Funny thing, I saw this guy. This dead guy, dead with his mouth open, and his head was right under a dripping pipe and, and all the drops of nasty gook, was just dripping into his open mouth, till his cheek's looked like two overblown basket balls, it had so much in it! His eyeballs, was popping out, staring at you!

[ 74 ]

We passed by dozens of smaller pipes, tons of wires hanging down, along with dripping water running from the ceiling. Finally, we reached to the next spot, where I had another roped, tied up, leading to the next deck above. The descent was not what you'd be thinking, nope, you think it would be a straight up and down the descent, but, no. That's not what it was. That's not what it was at all. But instead it was where ever I found a hole punctured through the deck. That was where, that I tied a rope, to get down in the blackness of this big cavernous mother ship we were in!

I suddenly noticed something. I looked good. To my right, when the flashlight hit it a doorway. The door was leading to a room, A room, that when I pitched the light beam into it, the light revealed, it appeared to be safe enough to walk into! Come lets go in here I said. And I walked in. I placed the lantern, on the floor and as I the light I illuminated the room. I could see it looked like a Bar Lounge. So, hey, like two dudes going into after hour honk tonk bar, I wished out loud laughing, anyways, we went in and sure enough there dozens of liquor bottles. Some broken, buried in debris, but luckily, most were not broken. There was door that said rest rooms, yo, my surprise it work at lease the toilet, there was a man lying dead on the floor, his body bloated your usual dead balloon size stinking so bad it made my eyes water!

It didn't take me long, to realize I would need help, so I told Jonathan, he could take off his blindfold, along with the two flashlight lanterns we could see just fine! We placed the flashlight on the floor tilted up to reflect on the cream colored ceiling. It was eerie! Jonathan turned on his recorder, the batteries were still lasting, and played a deep funk Jimmy Hendricks electronic guitar drug tune. The music was blaring out as we looked around at the destruction.

[ 75 ]

And the air in here stank real disgusting like, but it had a little ventilation and in comparison, it didn't smell as half as bad, as being further down below.
We dealt with it shit, because we had too! No alternative! And I scrounged, around and pushed back some of that crap that on top of a large variety of wines, beer cans, premixes and liquors. I had my choice out of dozens and plucked a rare dark burgundy, opened the turkey, and quickiy found two glasses, and poured each of us a drink. Then being my natural devious self, I asked, Jonathan do you drink? Boss, he said, smiling broadly, even if I didn't, today I would. And with that we downed it, and a couple more till the smiles we had, were glued to our faces. It. Oh yes, it, Lordy, Lordy me. It tasted terribly good, eye, sir, yes, sir ree bob, if I do say myself. So I was checking the joint out and to my disbelief the water in the bathroom was running and the toilet too. I relieved myself, all the while indulging in drinking in style. Hopefully, I thought to myself, this would be just the first good surprises to come our way. We set about placing a couple of bottles in the bags, we were carrying but they would be too heavy. So we only took a few and some glasses..
We filled up some boxes, we would definitely revisit this joint you can believe that. We be back to this club stinky stink, lounge smelly or not.
We were walking out heading for the rope, when I spotted a box of chains and pad locks with the key sets on the floor. Apparently, they would chain up the door to this joint after closing time. And so I took the locks and chains, thinking to myself, never know might need them, I also found a gold cigarette lighter, the lighter worked. And I scooped up a wallet, jam pack with green bills baby, the wallet, I didn't bother looking at the pictures, just swiped the cash quickly, didn't rightly know why, no stores on Earth, to but stuff with, no seven elevens, no ATMS, but what the hell. I thought, never no! I all ready had maybe forty Thou in gold, and my head nuts, was using it to drown bugs in a frying pan with it. Maybe these 100 dollar bills, I will roll up a cigarette? And smoke it?
It was about six hundred dollars, and put in my wallet immediately. I told Jonathan to replace the blindfold, we are fixing to leaving now, and wanted him to put it back on, he slipped it bandana blindfolds back on grudgingly and I led him to the ropes at the next spot, and again we climbed to the next deck successfully. It was there that I saw some something it was a pipe with ice on it. It must mean that somewhere in this giant ship half buried the mighty self generators are still working miraculously crunching power for ice cold water and who knows what else. Power that was good [ BLEEPING ] news. That means we got gas, where who the hell knows, but it was a good sign, I was smiling, and so was Jonathan, then it happen.

[ 76 ]

I was taking dumbo towards the escape ropes, when above us, bam, the goddam door popped open and a ton of heavy duty machinery crashed down, missed us by inches. I turned to run. Shocked, I jerked dumbo back with me, so he wouldn't get hurt too. We had just escaped being smashed. Standing several feet back, looking at what had just happen. I Felt [ Bleeping ] lucky, to still be breathing. Anyhow, something must of had moved inside, shifting the weight balance, of the room and causing the shit to fall down.

We were two lucky son of a bitches to be alive.
The door that read mechanical room, popped open, and all the shit fell out almost killing us! I looked at Jonathan, startled, he had pulled down his blindfold in a jiffy, and his eyes were wide open with fear, his forehead was perspiring, his mouth quivered, as he turned his head to look at me and whispered: we, we, we are, we shit, are two lucky guys boss!.
Yep, boy we sure in hell are, but look at all this stuff that came out, heavy duty ship tools and pulleys and junk and stuff we just might use.

Year, boss, but boss, but look at that. He said, pointing to two yellow Florissant colors buried in the mess, But, check it out, check these out he exclaimed excitedly, as he crawled on top of the mountain of junk and pulled one out!
The ships emergency gas masks boss! Holy hell, the boy had sharp eyes, all right, I looked at them, and sure in hell, we could dam sure use those suckers right now so we wouldn't have keep breathing all this stink shit.

We took the time to wrestle a couple of them free, and pulled them out. Several masks we took and tested, to see which ones worked, and put them on. It wasn't perfect, but, dam sure beat inhaling cemetery stench by the mouthfuls in here, and so we proceeded to climb over the big mountain of carnage and stuff so we could continue.

When all sudden the body of the dead engineer popped out, scaring the hell out of us. I pulled my gun out and shot the sucker, twice, Bam, Bam. The way he popped out like that, had given me such a fright.
Well sir, if he wasn't dead already, he was now doubly dead.

[ 77 ]

Boy, was deader than dead. Boy, looked bad. He was hanging down, out this here door, his hands just a swaying loose in the air, pointing downward towards the floor. He was young. His body caught up in some wires. And his urines and body fluids came leaking out fast. God dam, that shit looked terrible. I closed my eyes and looked away. And said, lets keep moving dude! We quickly ducked and pass him and proceeded to where the rope was, when all of sudden, we heard a big crash.

Another wall just fell over making a huge, startling noise, about a hundred feet in front of us! It seeme to be coming from the elevator shaft, so we shined our flashlights, inside of it. It had a long dark tunnel, at the end of which was something very strange.

Way down, way down at the other end, we noticed a light, a light was on down there. What the hell, I said, you see what I see? Year, boss. What you think Boss?
Before I could answer, we heard the low crunching sound a machine makes when it turns on! It was one of internal ship pumps or some kind of machinery. The power was still on down there, Still working!
I must imagine, its got to be those giant powerful monster generators machines these ships carry. Electrical redundancy, mega machines that's what they are quipped, Jonathan. We goner be in luck, if those bad boys stays on.

We looked at each other. I had to make up my mind fast, decided to investigate. I started walking down the elevator shaft, and motioned for Jonathan to come along too.

The doors of the elevators were open at each deck level, and were all blocked by bodies of dead people merged together in a kind horrible soup of death. Thank god for the masks, it cut down the stench of the dead.

We walked all the way down and the last door, led to a corridor, where the area, ceiling had collapsed in.
Mountains of beams, carnage, pieces of bodies, heads, shoes with feet in them. There was a woman, a young chick in her twenties, her face with make all all out of whack, her hair, soaked, wet with god knows what, and sticking out like porcupine needles, her nose looked like a fat midget carrot, her ears, had these god awful big fashionista earrings, hanging down eerily, making her look poopyier than what she was all ready! No clothes, she was swelled up bigger than cow. She had her arms sticking out, and her legs pointing all over the place, like a the big ugly shiny pink death balloon! Only thing was she was smiling and her eyes were bulging out! Clouds of exhaust fumes

[ 78 ]

with that bloated rotten flesh stench spewed out her butt!

Oh My God, bad scene I yelled out, Bitch, you could use some deodorant, God dammit!

But, over to the right, was what looked like a long line of storage freezers, and if I am not mistaken, a butcher shop, which by the way, looked like it just might be still useable..This was of interest to me, while, Jonathan went down the other side to investigate. I went in here to see what i could see.

It, was pitch black inside. I shined the flashlight around and found on my right on the wall, the light switch, hoping against hope, I flip the switch up. It had light!

The lights were working in here too, luckily, revealing, cutting tables, machines to cut meat, refrigerators, meat racks, and all. I walked in and walked towards the cutter machine, flicked a switch. The machine, wow, that sucker, made a hum and then blades of the slicer machine, spun into action, spinning around, and around, this sucker got power down here, I thought to myself.

Jonathan, down the hall he didn't see the butcher shop at all, he was more interested in something else down there. I switched off the machine. Took a couple of carving knives, can openers, and forks and plates and shoved them in my bag. Shut the lights off, closed back the door. And went to find him. As I approached the boy at a distance, by the look on his face, I could tell some thing was not right. What's up dude?

Er, um, I mean, Boss, I, I could of swore, I heard something, he replied, biting his lip and looking plenty worried, as he glanced back to look at me. What? Don't know Boss. It was coming from that freezer over there! We walked over and looked in the freezer window, and pulled the door open, and a sucker fell out frozen. He fell on the floor and cracked in half. His head rolled and spun around like a top.

[ 79 ]

We watched the spinning head without a neck come to a stop and it looked at us. I don't if it was the darkness or the shadows in the hallway or our imaginations gone wild, but, but did the, the face appeared to flash a smile then go limp?

I looked at Jonathan and he said Boss, look!

He was pointing into the freezer, the electric ventilators machines inside was still pumping and cranking out powerful freezing air into the room, When we opened the big freezer door, It came out like white smoke, and it pour out upon us, chilling us cold.

Hey, hey look look, check this out, exclaimed Jonathan excitedly, with the look of astonishment on his face, his was squinting his eyes as he focused on something weird.

The boy, was standing there, pointing into freezer at a figure of a man standing up talking into his smartphone, frozen dead stiff. Looked like he was calling for help, and walking, but froze to death, while standing up, and never fell over. Jonathan asked, incredulously, he's got to be dead, right boss?

Shucks, I said, the guy froze to death while standing up! Horses sleep standing up all the time, why can't he?
Hey Sally don't, don't don't come down here Sally! It's cold as frozen polar bear, in here! Year, year year, Sally! It'll freeze your but off girl! life an death strange how they go together! I said, remembering my old fat rat, that used to carry my on her back, Sally, could run, faster than a son of a gun!
Hey Sally do hear, do you here? Cold in here.

[ 80 ]

Common, I said, ain't nothing here. Lets get the hell out. That man died talking on his phone, let's leave him in peace, so he can finish his conversation! Betcha there's a lotta dead folks talkin on their phones down here!

Just as my predictable words, left my lips, then, down hall we heard a sound.
It turned out to be coming from yet, another freezer.

Well sir, I heard something. it sounded like something, something heavy fell down.
I wondered what the hell was that?
Me and Jonathan walked over, toward another of the ships giant freezers. I stopped outside the big, heavy, thick, metal, grey door of the freezer, before going in, and listened didn't hear nothing, and I peeked inside. Then cautiously, I shined the light up towards the ceiling and around the walls, and looking around to see what I could see. I thought I'd checkout the ceiling. Didn't want to go in and fall on my ass!
I could see that it was a big space inside, and
deep, wide, it was a big, big freezer, and I spotted on the far left, the ceiling, had collapsed and was hanging down! And as I walked in, I suddenly felt my foot kick into something hard, and I tripped over it, and fell down, turned the flashlight around, and saw, this guys jaw, his head, his whole body laying on the ground, like a dead man, surrounded by an ice puddle!
What happened was, I had just kicked the dude accidentally, in the head!

[ 81 ]

The dude, looked like a white statue that fell over and cracked in a dozen places. And by the looks of long red blood line cross his forehead, it appeared his head was cracked, Oh shit, I said in amazement, look at this!
look at this! Will ya look at this!
Dam, sam! OH MY GOD! exclaimed Jonathan when he saw it, another one? I hope not, I sue hope not! Shit! Looks like this one we might be able save the turkey, I said. so, I did what i had to do!

So I quickly got up really fast, and placed the flashlight down, so it's shining on his head, and grabbed the two parts of the mans head with my hands and pressed them back together again, and I reached into my pocket, and I pulled out a tube of crazy glue, and squeezed out some and glued the dudes head together, then, I looked up, to Jonathan,

and yelled : Hey Jonathan, go quick look for a rag!
Or grabbed something, and help me hold this man's head together.
Oh my God, is his head cracked?
Don't ask stupid questions, go look for something to tie it back together. Like what, asked Jonathan? A rag, or something to make a tourniquet, or some gosh darn thing, I don't know. This boy, brains gone spill out, he must of been frozen like ice sickle,and fell over and smashed on the floor, and cracked open his head!
OK, boss, said Jonathan enthusiastically, and who ran around quickly, with his flash light, and ripped the shirt off a dead guy, laying down a couple a feet away on the floor, and tied it around the mans head, around his ears, thinking that should hold his head together. But, then, when he shinned the light on the man, he blinked; he was alive and said. Oh my head ! My head ow! Ow, owwwww. my head hurts!
Ow, oh, meu, ump, gees, ah, um, di fumy, bumy nuc nuc, . . . Oh, noooooooo my, my head, ow, it hurts! The man mumbled to him self said, when he open his eyes and looked at me and said mi mymy mi e la lelay,
sun bon,am aahi ick poo icy ma, ma maaaa! So, I thought, this boy is got his brain messed up, he's thinking he is an infant and talking baby talk to me, so I took out my Pistol and turned it round using the but of my gun, and beat him in the head! POW, POW, and instantaneously the old dude, yelled OH, OW, ow, OW OW!
BR, smiled and he bent over watching the man, an said to Jonathan, who, now, was shocked,
to see what BR, had done to him.
See I knocked the boy in the had, a couple of times! I hoping to get his brain working, and up to date, cause by the way he's talking, he's delusional and thinks he's little baby, and I am his mommy! Pow, So I hit him again, Pow, I hit him once more in head! Oh shit, Jonathan exclaimed shocked, you trying to break his head completely open, boss! Na naaaaa no. See he was talking a lot of baby talk, so, I just gave him a little tap,
so he could get his head together and talk straight, like a man, instead of a baby! That's all.
Pow, pow, pow, BR, tapped him hard a couple of more times! OW screamed the man, in extreme pain!

[ 82 ]

OW. OW. STOP, Stop! OW! the man cried. BR, looked at him and smiled, Hey boy, you in there! Big Rex, asked the man, and guy, was hurting even more now, let out a loud, loud scream OW, OW ow owwwwwwww!

Then BR, leaned over and whispered
Boy, you, you, you gone be alright boy!
Is that you mother?

Mother you look terrible, the man said really distressed, and it was obvious, he was clearly not thinking rationally and imagined he was back home conversing with his mother! The man was delirious, and gazed up, thinking BR was his mother, and told him! Mother.
Yes boy, answered BR, trying to give him some measure of comfort.
Mother you look really bad! Year well, I had a bad plastic surgery job boy! How you feeling, asked Big Rex?
Oh Mommy! I feel terrible. Year well, I told you, there'll be days like that, my boy! Why you wearing a cowboy hat, he asked? That's what's trending now a days boy, replied BR.
Why is it dark? It's night time.
Why is it cold? Cause it's winter!

Now, see Jonathan, see Jonathan, see I was right! It is working!
After a couple good solid whacks to the head, the boy, is not talking no more freakin' baby talk!

I think he's got a chance. A good chance!
Come Jonathan, help drag the sucker, over to the boiler room. The fish, will be warm, and toasty, over in there, and he can thaw out, and get his circulation back good again, and feel much better, said BR.
So, they carefully dragged the poor guy out, and took him down the hall to where the ships boiler room was located and laid him on the warm metal floor, and let him lay there to rest. The boiler room as indeed warm, the air in there was trapped, and you could see the ice on him began to melt,
and he laid there quietly, befuddled and clueless, like a little crazy baby, waiting for his mother to feed him!
Now that he seemed to be stabilized, I had time to check the boy out good! What I saw was an old heavy set man, white as snow, balled head, inside disheveled, shucks, he was I don't know about in his fifties, there abouts!
Medium build, his shirt was open, stained with red blood, around his neck he wore a bunch of gold chains, that glistened in the sparse light. He looked like he was wearing one of official ships uniforms, looked like one of the ship's officers, by the way he was dressed.

[ 83 ]

Lots of stripe's on his jacket. He resembled that old American president, Abraham Lincoln. slightly, but not tall at all!
He had a black trimmed beard, and wore phone set in his right ear.
He dam sure looked European to me, possibly, French, who the hell knows?
He was holding on for dear life.

The guy, was shivering! The old man look bad, he looked really cold, and his skin, just had that misty icey sheen to it!
Don't know, how he stayed alive but, I didn't think he could live much longer.

I for one, wouldn't bet on it. I wouldn't bet on it at all!
And that was those noises, that drew Jonathan's attention!

Me and Jonathan, was doing the best we could for him. He was asleep now. I left him alone and went back to the freezer, to check out if food was inside.

I saw some meat hooks, but no meat, and underneath the hooks, there was a small wooden bench, and next to that was a long aluminum chopping table.
As I looked inside, I noticed, the back part of the rooms ceiling, was crushed in, and I saw some men, smashed under tons of debris, Boy, were they, . . . dead!

Apparently this guy, had been trying to push the debris away, from in front of the door, so he could get out of the big locker door, and must of gotten so cold he just froze in his tracks and fell out on the floor. No way could, he have done it and gotten out, if we didn't stumble upon him!

We got busy and pulled away the junk, blocking the door, opened it, and went back inside the freezer and looked around. But, tough titty, and we came up empty! No frozen meat, any where. No meat, no meat, no meat to eat! So, we went back to where he was, and walked in and to my surprised the guy had wakened up, and was on the floor leaning up on his elbow, and was passing the time, looking all around. And, i don't know, but the fish, he seemed better now, and hopefully had, gotten some of his senses back. Whether he nuts or not nuts! I was not gone play his mama, no Goddam more! Enough of that crap!

[ 84 ]

I drew my pistol and we walked in on him and I yelled, "Hey you, you inside there, Bumble bugger bitch, what's your name, bumble bugger bitch?"

Well, sir the man, when he heard me call out, he just about freaked out. He didn't answer, or appear to understand what I had just said. But you dam sure could tell, he was just happy to see us! Seemed his head was working!
He didn't call me mother, an that was a good thing, believe you that!
He looked up at us, his eyes brightened, his face broke out in huge smile, like he just saw his momma! Oh Oh, I said to my self! He smiled broadly, his head wobbly on his old neck, like his head was gonna fall off! The blood leaking out of his head, where he cracked it, had done dried up! He looked shitty, but the crazy glue was doing a good job! Although for a minute there, it looked like he was about to lose his head, as he started shaking, shaking it, as he awkwardly struggle to get to his feet, the boy was plenty dis-oriented, half out of his mind, or all of it, I don't rightly know?

Part of his brain, must of froze up and perhaps he wasn't using one side of his head? But at least he wan't dead! But, still he was so happy somebody heard him and come for him. The boy was besides him self with joy!
I couldn't believe the guy, he actual was crying, he couldn't make it to stand up, so he walked over to me on his knees. He crawled on his hands and knees and embraced my shoes and wrapped his arms roundly both my legs crying like pitiful dog in need of love! He kept, thanking me for coming. He had given-up, he said with dismay.

Jonathan and I, we looked at each other stunned, but this was the way, he was expressing his gratitude!

I got the man to stand up and he seemed out of his mind and carried on incoherently.
I searched him but he was in such bad shape, I don't even think he noticed!
And I pulled his wallet out, and also found he was carrying a revolver, which I quickly confiscated. The card inside, the wallet, indicated this boy was none other than the ships Captain. Holy shit! His drivers license said his name was Di Andronikos wow, I thought to my self, this guys Greek boy, he knows where all the secret goodies are on this ship!

And he got to have, he must got keys too. Wow, this means, we don't have break down doors to get into stuff! We gone have keys! Wow, I thought to my self, this was big time news. I was looking tough on the outside, but happy as five year old on the inside!

Holy Mary mother of God, the man exclaimed several more times, holding up his hands patting my hands even though it had a gun in it. He didn't notice! Thats when I knew the boy had lost his marbles. And was going nuts fast!

Hold on feller, let me see if I can get you out of here!
Now, after about ten minutes of dragging him out of that place, we took him back to another room and laid him down so he could get accustomed to normal temperatures, and defrost defrost his brain a bit more.

I took out a beer, and knelt down looked at the boy, and nodded my head to him, signaling, if he would like one. He smiled, nodded his head back, and without a word being spoken, put out his hand. So, I gave him a can of beer.
He was happy, already, wouldn't hurt to make him, well make him happier and more talkative, it you get my drift, boy needed to be more talkative, warm them frozen lips up!

[ 85 ]

And, no better way to warm them cold lips up, than a beer, and yapping your head off!

He began yelling and yelling, some, somebody, he burst out yelling fanatically, looking up at the ceiling, then at me and Jonathan.
Some, some yes, wow, I can't believe it. Some, some, somebody actually heard me! Thank God! Thanks, oh thank you, thank you, thanks! thank, thank, thank you, you yes, thank you, thank you! You must be god?

I pulled open the bizarre mans coat, and sure enough on his belt there was big wad of keys.
I looked at him, while I made up some Bull Shit, story on the fly, I am the new Big Rex, police rescue security team. What are these keys for?
He was in dream land, not listening to me, so I slapped him upside the face, he woke up fast, stunned, but that's what snapped him out it, and he said, Oh, yes, um, um, er, they, they are, they open the different doors on my ship.

So, I tried to get him to elaborate, so I asked, you mean, like food storage rooms, motor rooms and the like?

Yes, of course, he nodded his head up and down in agreement exaggeratedly.
OK. Look! We need to have access to portable gas tanks, does the ship have any? Especially, we need ones with wheels so we can store gas, once we get out side?
He looked at me bewildered, but I could see him searching his mind for the answers.

He replied unsteadily, thanks, thank, the kind you can attach to pickup, are in, section FA-1deck, on the upper deck near the pursers office cabin #R3.

I could show you, but I don't feel up to it right now. I need to see a doctor, and get bath, I, I, need to call my wife and tell her you found me and I am going to be all right.
Then I am going to call my boss, he's got to know too!

Then I want to sleep in a nice warm bed, a nice big one, hmmnn! Can you take me out now?

Sure in a second, but first our rescue supply envoys, haven't gotten here yet, supplies are a tad low!

[ 86 ]

Just a tiny bit, Captain, sir!

So, to act fast, we want to use emergency supplies on board your ship, you understand?

First tell me, where would I find, the ships doctors offices, some portable generators, equipment like extension cords. We gone need hundred foot long ones too.
And well, sir, you got to tell me where I can find stuff like, welding machines the engineers on the ship uses.

Our staff could be in need of this stuff right now and it sure would help if you could cooperate, and tell me, right now where I might pick up some, clothes lines, hampers, paper hand towels, toilet paper, first aid compartments, even a battery powered ICD defibrillator, is needed sir, during this big, big emergency sir!

Can you be a little patient? Sir, and help me by telling me where all this equipment is now, sir! Here I said to him smiling, and handing the boy, another beer!

I suckered up, real good, to the boy, cause this stuff was important and he had all the answers in his head, and he just might go bizzerk and lose his mind, memory and all real soon. I knew he was teetering on the edge of being insaner than me!
He soon appeared to forget about stuff often in the middle of a sentence, this tragedy had knocked the juice out of his brain, it was still frozen, so I hedged my bets, and figured while he still lucid, while he still sane, I better get as much info about the ship as possible?

I pulled out a map, I found of the ship, and discussed it as best I could with him about where things like food, weapons, portable generators, and, and food pantries where located.
He showed me on the map where the gasoline tanks were located. I wrote down the locations of the stuff, he told me about, and told not to worry everything will be ok! Which of course was one big ass lie! The world was dead outside!
I am going to need the ship's keys for safe keeping and for other safety reasons, so they don't get lost. We're gone do a lot of climbing to get you out of here, I don't want you to lose anything. The dick head, believed me, and I knew what I had to do.

He was getting worse by the minute. I told him to try to relax, he was just having panic attacks! I told him, they only make things in your mind, seem worse than what they are, and they will pass and he will feel better soon.

Are you a doctor? You look a little weird but you got a nice smile! Are you a doctor?

[ 87 ]

When I need to be, I replied smiling.

The guy started shaking and mumbling something, then he started again, he was loosing it fast. He started crying again, and thanking me and carrying on, I don't even know if half the time he understood me, but the main thing is I got the map and info!
He got up, fell unto his knees and put out his arms to me and yelled, Holy Mary Mother of God, some, somebody heard me, Thank God!

One thing was for sure, we needed to get this boy out into some fresh warm air, and fast less, he just collapses, and dies and or go bonkers crazy, and go bye, bye!
He closed his eyes and kept thanking us for coming. It sounded like a broken record all ready!

Holy Mary Mother, Holy Mother, Oh, yes, yes than thank you! Dear God, some, somebody heard me, Thank God! I am, Di Adronikos, the Captain, help me please, please, I am freezing, thank God somebody, somebody came. I thought it was allover for me, thank god, OMG!

Well, the boy, went on ranting, but then, got serious for a moment, and told us a little more, about what occurred.
Turns out, he doesn't remember taking the elevator down to the lower deck, or why he went into that freezer,
but, he said, the walls and beams of the freezer box, down there caved in, but, somehow he survived.

But, he said, I got myself trapped inside, some guys with me, they got crushed, when the ceiling caved.
They're dead, cause part of the freezer, it collapsed in on them.

[ 88 ]

So, he kept on talking and was paranoid. He looked at the floor, then in my eyes, then he turned around fast to see if someone was behind him. Then he began scratching his head real hard, like he was trying to figure something out! He was getting jumpy.
He smiled, crazy and I told him, everything was gone be OK!
I was smiling as I tried to calm the man down!
He was the Captain of MV MARINA, all right, but he was Captain nuts mostly, right now!
His main concern was to get himself together, and warm his body back up, and get him out of here, which I promised I would do, but I said, I wanted him to rest up a bit, to stay here with Jonathan while I took another look around, since I was down here already. I wanted to make, a quick search to see what else I could find! I'll be back! Jonathan, ever the dubious one, exclaimed fearfully, you will be back, won't you? What did you say? What did you say to me? Jonathan choked up, realizing he was out of line, and said you are coming back, Boss?
