–‘Quick quick disguise me girls. The punky wig, the hat!’-
Barney narrating
-‘Next stop Riverbank Park. Buses to the center stop here. Passengers for Ragwort Pool, the path across the park is now cleared through the next gate down.’-
This is our stop already. The bus hisses to a halt, next to the dark ruined park. Lucy is worried again, she wants to go into town and pick up Duna and Lila, while I will take the short cut, through the park and across the little river, and be home with Moonbeam in just ten minutes!
Me and Lucy don’t suffer from premonitions, unfortunately. Maybe we are just too newly in love, to worry about falling into a trap. We’d gone all starry eyed and smoochy, giggling under Christy’s sheet in the back of the bus. Continue reading “Serial of The Free Ch 45. The Trap”

–‘Oh Lulu Lululu.’– Barney gurgled, urgently.’-
Barney narrating
-‘Let’s go. Let’s go. Let’s go and find them now!’-
In less than an hour we had cleaned up Maggie’s Kitchen, prepared our picnics, fed all the animals and were all out the door with our bags on our backs. Leaving the neighbours having an assembly.

–‘Hello Tessa this is Pardy.. Hello Tessa.. Are you awake at all’-

*******************I could hear wild cheering as the crowds merged
I’m up here on the eleventh floor preparing my talk, for trying to win over the soldiers when they arrive at dawn. I’m all psyched up and shitting myself. The appeal probably won’t work, and then what?.
It’s two thirty in the morning here. I got keys of the manager’s office, in the occupied Customs and Excise building. This floor is in use, but empty now, the rest of the block was all abandoned till today. It isn’t because of the strikes that the Port is stopped. It’s down to economic collapse and impossibly stormy weather. Continue reading “Serial of The Free.Ch 28. Revolution Day”
