🚨 ISRAELI PM NETANYAHU AND CABINET TO REMAIN IN BUNKER; ISRAELI AND US LEADERSHIP TAKE EMERGENCY MEASURES AMID HEIGHTENED TENSIONS 🚨
‼️Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu will stay at the Kirya tonight, accompanied by his cabinet. The Kirya houses a bunker system built to withstand a nuclear attack, equipped with satellite communication systems and sufficient food storage for at least a month. It can accommodate senior Israeli leaders and military leadership.
‼️In response to recent developments, Israeli Minister of Energy Eli Cohen convened an emergency meeting, deciding to increase coal and diesel stocks.
‼️The Israeli General Staff has ordered reinforcements for forces affiliated with the Northern Front Command and has raised the alert level.
‼️The Israeli top brass is preparing for a response that could last at least three days
‼️US President Joe Biden has been briefed on the Iranian response. Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Blinken is currently holding a phone call with the Iraqi Prime Minister.
‼️In a related move, the UK has evacuated the families of staff members and non-essential staff from its embassy in Lebanon with other Countries expected to follow suit.
🟢 SUNDAY night - ISRAEL REALTIME - Connecting to Israel in Realtime
▪️CROSS BORDER SMUGGLING TUNNELS.. Gaza to Egypt, orders to NOT blow up, because doing so is doing damage to Egyptian border wall defenses.
▪️US CENTCOM COMMANDER.. will arrive in Israel tomorrow to complete the coordination with the IDF in preparation for a possible Iranian attack.
▪️AIR TRAVEL - MIN OF TRANSPORT SAYS.. Those who want to fly should fly - keep in mind that the return flights will be delayed due to the cancellations and because there is no room on the Israeli airlines.
❗️HOME FRONT COMMAND SAYS.. activating EMERGENCY CELL BROADCAST system, which will send an emergency pop-up SMS-like message to EVERYONE, with an alert sound. This is a standard government emergency capability, and I personally saw this while in California earlier this year with an earthquake warning. It is NOT a substitute for a Red Alert app - but a quick way to get an emergency message out to everyone.
.. HOWEVER, Home Front says it ONLY works for Cellcom and Pelephone customers, and only 4th generation on Cellcom and 3rd generation on Pelephone phones at this time. It DOES NOT include kosher phones. (We asked Home Front.)
💩IRANIAN FEAR CAMPAIGN - propaganda from all social media channels
.. Wall Street Journal: Iran has refused many requests from Western diplomats to moderate its response against Israel.
.. Report: Iran will respond in a way that crosses Israel's red lines.
.. The US asked European governments to warn Iran that a major attack against Israel would trigger a response. Iran, for its part, told Arab diplomats that it did not care if the reaction against Israel led to an outbreak of war.
▪️ISRAEL OUR HOME MK LIBERMAN.. wrote on X: "In the jungle of the Middle East, we must conduct ourselves differently. A situation in which an entire country panics and waits for a multi-arena attack must not be allowed. The initiative must always be in our hands"
⭕ ROCKET ATTACK from HEZBOLLAH at Snir, northern border town.
⭕ ROCKET BARRAGE from HAMAS at Bitzaron, Gan Yavne, Hatzor, Azrikam, Sdeh Uziahu, Shtulim.

Tidbits and bobs#1
Essentially my version of a lore dump
- All sentient machines, regardless of where they are built or their origin, believe in a singular deity named Lady. She is the station pilot for the Grand Terminus, the last stop for all sentient machines. Lady is seen as equal parts God and grim reaper and can appear in a multitude of forms, from locomotive to tug boat. She claims all sentient machines as her children and is believed to be very kind and gentle. This belief system has aspects of reincarnation, as it is believed that the soul of the machines shall be forged anew and come to incarnate a new form of vehicle or machine.
- Lady may choose a "guardian" to help with more earthly affairs on her behalf. It is unclear what they stand guard over, however.
- It is believed that Lady watches over the Isle of Sodor, as machinery built there seems to have a higher chance of sentience. However, this is both unproven and unconfirmed.
Ok enough lady stuff I just wanted to talk about her (she's neat)
- Thomas's route takes him all the way to Tidmouth and he often brings the townsfolk to their big city jobs.
- The official NWR freight engine livery is the green and red stripes, as worn by Henry and Percy.
- Percy has been requested as a guest of honor for at least 52 weddings and he has attended 34.
- The original Ulfstead Castle was destroyed in a landslide in 1991. The new Ulfstead Castle was built in 2000 and is part estate, railway, and museum, all orchestrated by the Earl of Sodor, Sir Robert Norramby.
- May 11th is Sodor Day, which marks the end of a week-long festival for all things Sudrian. Also, May 11th and Christmas Day are the only times the NWR intentionally reduces its services.
- In 2000, Sodor's Council passed a law allowing the marriage of sentient machines.
- The volunteers on the Talyllyn railway often send gag jokes or pranks to the workers of the SKR. The biggest prank yet was when they swapped Sir Handel with Sir Haydn (with permission from both the Thin Controller and the Talyllyn Preservation Society) and waited to see how long it would take someone to notice. Sir Haydn was on Sodor for 2 weeks and was found out by Duncan, who was suspicious as to why "Handel" was being so polite to him.
- Out of all the famous eight engines, Gordon is the one who dislikes his TV theme song the most. He claims that "it wasn't grand enough."
- Thomas's favorite TV episode is "Thomas and the Jet Engine." On multiple occasions, he has begged the Fat Controller to let him recreate the episode, just so he can say he is the fastest engine on Sodor.
- Edward is the unofficial father of Thomas, Bill, Ben, Rosie, Philip, and Ryan.
- Gordon is surprisingly good at giving advice. He has even given Edward some kind words.
- Boco is the official secondary for the Wild Nor'wester.
- Sodor is a sanctuary for sentient machines, and as such, Crovan's Gate Works can fix just about any type of machine in the world, whether it's diesel, steam, electric, gasoline, kerosene, or hydrogen. Bring them any type of motive power, and they can fix it in no time flat.
- During the purge of steam, Henry and later Murdoch often smuggled engines onto Sodor, attached to the ends of their freight trains.

dad lore be insane lol
just found out that my dad was hired by THE slab Murphy to engineer a tanker that would help him smuggle diesel-
he was involved with the IRA with like 2 degrees of removal, assisting a guy who was harbouring terrorists and did a border smuggling trip a couple times
he literally climbed onto the roof of the school to get away from a teacher he disliked
he managed to somehow live in a tenement house long after they had went out of fashion
his first girlfriend was a literal slum lord
he visited Poland so much that he has a small reputation among a Polish engineering firm (I still get phone calls from those guys)
he literally contributed to the restoration of the place where I now work
he nearly got sued for patent infringement??? (idk about that one I think my uncle was exaggerating)
broke a world record (most people participating in a game of tug of war at the same time) [he's since lost it]
ran a successful business and told nobody so he could play off college debt
became number 1 supplier of tug of war equipment in the province of ulster (i still get phone calls about incomplete orders)
and I heard none of this shit from him...
#bloggy blog#personal shit lol#ire's incoherent rambling#my dad was an interesting guy#i miss that guy#and i wished hed at least updated the polish guys because i hate breaking their hearts every time they call

Saw your post appropriately mourning the availability of the Hilux. American-titled ones can be found on bringatrailer and other sites :)
too late I've already committed to my fantasy of smuggling Toyota Hilux importing the all new Hyota Tilux to a market of Alaskans who are desperate for that hyperbolic mileage and in general unkillableness of a light duty diesel pick up.

The next day, Hex feels totally out of sorts. She can’t pinpoint what’s wrong, but her whole body feels heavy. Perhaps it’s a side effect of her pregnancy, or maybe she’s coming down with something. She pushes herself out of bed, slowly getting ready for work that evening.
Somehow, she’s managed to keep her pregnancy a secret at work. Or, some have noticed but not said anything. She works for a criminal organisation, managing their smuggling operations. Any sign of weakness - particularly a change in her physical state - could be used against her. A life of crime is dangerous in many ways. She can’t trust anyone.
The hours at work pass in a blur. She has to keep getting up and wandering around her office as she feels small stabs of pain in her stomach and lower back. She’s in her third trimester so it’s probably just early warning signs of labour. She won’t give birth today.
Or so she thinks. Hex’s cramps get so much worse when she finishes work and sits down to eat dinner. She can’t ignore them now. She’s in labour.
Confused and terrified, Hex gives her cat, Diesel, one last cuddle before hobbling to the train station.

NWR Numbers 9 and 10: Donald and Douglas McIntosh
Next up are my designs for the Scottish twins: Donald and Douglas McIntosh. They work all over the island and are considered second only to Edward when it comes to goods expertise or handling trucks, but officially call the Arlesburgh "The Little Western" branch line home, where they live with their spouses, Duck and Oliver respectively, and their growing families. The are also the younger cousins of Emily.
Donald and Douglas grew up in Scotland, learning English alongside their native Gaelic, together and became inseparable. However, they were regarded as an ideal team for goods trains and were happy until their original controller retired.
With the new controller came the beginning of dieselisation on their railway, resulting in many of their friends and loved ones being sent to scrap. This planted the seeds of their prejudices against diesels, made worse by the constant fear of their own imminent scrapping.
But Donald's offer of a transfer to the North Western Railway offered them a sliver of hope. Though the offer was only extended to Donald, he smuggled his twin to Sodor with him, sure that their lifelong work ethic would win over their new Controller. However, a string of ill fortune and a spiteful breakvan meant that it took an additional intervention from the other engines - in particular, a private conference with Edward - to prove their worth. This is something that they have worked hard to secure ever since.
Some time after, the two engines were moved to Arlesburgh with Duck - an engine with whom they had always enjoyed a special relationship. Living together caused the relationship between Donald and Duck to blossom into real love. Around the same time, Douglas found and rescued a Great Western tank engine and Break Van - Oliver and Toad - the former being Duck's younger brother. Toad became Douglas's break van in gratitude, also acting as cupid between him and Oliver. By the time Donald and Duck married, Douglas and Oliver had also fallen in love and married shortly after. They have fathered four children between them: Grace and Austin for Donald and Duck; Robyn and Scarlett for Douglas and Oliver. Both hope for more children.
Both were overjoyed by the arrival of their cousin Emily and acted as (uninvited) chaperones during her early romance with Henry. They have 'graciously' accepted Henry and have always been accepting of his son, Anthony, acting as crazy uncles to him and his half-brother Tyler.
Donald also has Dilly, an unofficial pet duck who he dotes on. His choice of pet, combined with him being married to Duck, has resulted in some gentle teasing from the other engines.
Donald and Douglas have a well-earned reputation for being engines you do not mess with, which includes those they love. They are both fiercely protective of Duck and safeguard them from any criticism or negative comments about their gender identity. Though both are fully aware of Duck's true identity, they are resolved to support them as they come to terms with it.

Being a Jew-hating terrorist means never having to take responsibility. You can always blame the Jews, after all.
Amidst Israel’s attempts to root out Hamas from the Gaza Strip, Hamas is now receiving a helping hand from the international community and the legacy media. While Hamas sits on vast stockpiles of water, food, and medicine, the international community and legacy media have placed responsibility for Gaza’s civilian population … on Israel.
According to no less an anti-Israel authority than the New York Times this weekend:
As supplies of virtually every basic human necessity dwindle in Gaza, one group in the besieged enclave remains well-stocked: Hamas. Arab and Western officials say there is substance to Israeli claims of Hamas stockpiling supplies, including desperately needed food and fuel. … Hamas has hundreds of thousands of gallons of fuel for vehicles and rockets; caches of ammunition, explosives and materials to make more; and stockpiles of food, water and medicine, the officials said.
A senior Lebanese official said Hamas, which is estimated to number between 35,000 and 40,000, had enough stocked away to keep fighting for three to four months without resupply. … The supply situation speaks to the relative sophistication of Hamas as a fighting force — an axiom among military professionals is that while amateurs talk about tactics, professionals talk about logistics. Yet with Gazans facing a humanitarian catastrophe, Hamas’s stockpiles raise questions about what responsibility, if any, it has to the civilian population.
There it is, that fabled New York Times objectivity: Hamas stealing billions of dollars from its citizens to fund its war machine “raises questions about what responsibility, if any, it has to the civilian population.”
Imagine that sentence in any other context.
Is there any question that the United States government has a responsibility for its civilian population? Or Israel’s government?
But being a genocidal, Jew-hating terrorist means you don’t have to take responsibility for the civilians you supposedly govern. You might not have any responsibility for those citizens. In fact, Gaza hospitals are right now complaining about a lack of fuel — but Hamas currently has 260,000 gallons of gasoline and diesel on hand.
But no matter. Hamas has no responsibility.
Latest Releases:

Watch

Watch

Watch

Watch
Which is why Hamas’ friends are able to lament the plight of civilians in Gaza after having funded their impoverishment — and the current conflict, created by Hamas.
Aid dollars deployed to Gaza over the past 20 years have been embezzled by Hamas and used for its murderous plans. According to NBC News:
The unemployment rate in Gaza is 47% and more than 80% of its population lives in poverty, according to the United Nations. Hamas, however, has funded an armed force of thousands equipped with rockets and drones and built a vast web of tunnels under Gaza. Estimates of its annual military budget range from $100 million to $350 million, according to Israeli and Palestinian sources. … Since coming to power in the Gaza Strip 17 years ago, Hamas has filled its coffers with hundreds of millions in international aid, overt and covert injections of cash from Iran and other ideological partners, as well as cryptocurrency, taxes, extortion and smuggling, according to current and former U.S. officials and regional experts.
Much of the money is public and legal, including large sums of financial aid from Qatar via the United Nations, an arrangement encouraged and approved by Israel. The Qatari aid covers the salaries of civil servants, buys fuel for the power grid and provides cash to needy families. … Hamas’ leadership has invested its income in an international investment portfolio worth $500 million in real estate and other assets from companies in Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates, which it uses to conceal and launder its money, according to a Treasury announcement.
But now, the international community and legacy media say it’s up to Israel to make humanitarian provision for Gaza’s civilians.
This, of course, is disingenuous.
None of the countries that voted in favor of a UN resolution pushing a ceasefire have offered to take in any Gazan civilians. None have called for Hamas to surrender to Israel, which would end the conflict immediately.
No, they say.
Israel must stop its attempts to destroy Hamas.
The innocents are suffering.
Latest Episode:

Ep. 1839 - The Pogroms Are Back
A pogrom breaks out in Russia as the world makes excuses for Hamas; Hamas and its erstwhile allies call for Israel to stop its campaign to destroy the terror group; and Mike Pence drops out of the 2024 race.
LISTEN NOW
This is the height of cynicism. It’s on par with the old saw about the man who kills his parents and throws himself on the mercy of the court because he is an orphan. Hamas started this conflict. Hamas is the governing body in the Gaza Strip. Hamas has chief responsibility for the health and welfare of Gazan Palestinian civilians.
And they don’t give two whits about those citizens.
In fact, they want those citizens to die. Over the weekend, Ismail Haniyeh, the political leader of Hamas, called for the blood of Palestinian Arab women and children.
So here’s the math, apparently: If a population elects terrorist leadership, that terrorist leadership consolidates its control by wiping out its political rivals, that terrorist leadership steals billions of dollars in aid and impoverishes its own citizens in the process, and then that terrorist leadership murders 1,500 Jews and kidnaps another 233 people, then so long as that terrorist leadership hides in tunnels, the terrorists must be left alone.
This is insanity.
It is insanity no other country would be expected to weather. Not the United States, not the U.K., not France, not Germany.
No one.
There cannot be a ceasefire until Hamas surrenders.
Anyone in the world who is not calling on Hamas to do just that — in fact, those who are calling for a lengthening of the conflict by shipping in more resources for Hamas to steal — cannot pretend to care about human life, either Israeli or Palestinian.
There is a reason both Hamas and the UN are calling for a ceasefire, and it has nothing to do with human rights and everything to do with stopping Israel from protecting its own citizens, the mass murder of whom created this conflict in the first place.

This is almost exactly what the Troy-Bilt backhoe tractor looks like and it was really a lawn tractor no it was made to be a farming tractor that you could put attachments on use a PTO and it works very well these things are very famous and they should be and they worked extraordinarily well they were a workhorse and they were used by a lot of people they were very valuable a lot of people had them and it was by the Troy-Bilt company for real this is what they were doing and it is no joke that they made a lot of them and they they did the produce a ton of these damn things and they were quite effective at what they do and a lot of people bought them but to make a long story short we want to make these and we want to sell them kind of bare bones so you won't see the canopy top you won't see the front end loader attachment and you won't see a backhoe attachment and you won't see that come with it unless you specifically order it and it will have a PTO no that's another attachment so people wonder what the hell it's for no they know what it is it would be a tractor and they do buy them a lot of times they buy the real thing and they buy brands that are not as pricey but there they are fairly expensive and they have excuses to make stuff and we have people who would want to make things in their garage and they would say this is what it is and we have done this before we are not gun shy and it does have an effect that we like and we use. We're going to go ahead and we are going to try and get people involved who are interested in this from both walks of life because we need it it is somewhat like smuggling because it is RTA they're very the Spartan and they look very simple and they're very inexpensive they don't have stereos or air conditioning or electronics to control them they don't have electronic tube inflation and all this crap that really never works right they don't have sensors so you know where you are and people turn all that s*** off and we can make it less expensive the price on one of these and no joke this size and it's pretty big these are damn big tractors would probably go for about $5,000 and the reason why they'd be cheap is because of bare bones there's no attachments you used to having all the attachments provided and in this case no and it would really be powerful they're powerful engines and they're good size engines and a lot of them will be diesel is not true a diesels cost a lot of money so we're going to start with gasoline and a lot of the tractors they buy are gasoline yeah because they can't afford the diesel and diesel fuel is harder to get they need a whole bunch of these and pronto and we hear it so we want them to get involved and use the workforce out there in the people out there have done this before they know it's about and they're not averse to it is competition but they're not really making the food anymore not like they used to and so that is motivation for them and we heard from you and he's been floating around so people think it's him so we're going to try and get going on this idea and we will say that it's very nice it's wonderful and this is what it looks like
Thor Freya
And we have done this before it is a science we're very good at it we do understand what people do they're trying to build a lot of stuff some of it's illegal now they're trying to build a lot of illegal stuff and they want to use our stuff to build it illegal stuff with and then say it too and I'm saying it now that we're crazy and stuff but that's how it goes we are very interested in doing this and we will start to produce as soon as people decide to we have engines that are better and we have the machine that's designed better don't get us wrong it's still very simple but it is also ons. So we're not really paying attention here he says and he says he wants back up and he says he wants people to stop making them look like they're all mighty it's aggravating we don't want you talking your way out of something that he's telling you not to do or like a dissertation things are too annoying obviously the Mac proper don't like the idea he says

New: Economy Ministry Reviews RON95 Subsidy Rationalization

rewrote the legion’s lore for a school assignment. 1,300 words of nerd.
My cellphone rang, “Joey, my man, how you doin’?”
“Hey Frank, howzit?” I sat up on my bed,
“Yeah, dude, we’re going out tonight, get some stuff done. You wanna come with? Gang’s not the same without ya.” The sumvabitch wanted to relieve boredom by means of extreme hooliganism yet again.
“Man, I don’t know. My parent’s are suspect-”
“To hell with our parents! My foster only ever cashes the family service checks at the bar. Julie’s don’t care what she does, neither do Susie’s. What are yours doin’?”
“Dishes downstairs, but touché. I’ll get my mask.”
“That’s the Joey I know. See you at the gas station? We’re gonna grab a few bottles of Moosehead—and one of Labatt Blue—and go up to the old Skiing lodge.” He meant steal. Frank has only ever paid for his bus to school, and to forge a ski pass.
“See you there.”
“Lovebirds, Susie.” I nodded to each.
“That mask gives me chills, Joey, every time.” Julie peeled herself off of Frank, pulling her own mask down over her face, her hair instantly freezing solid over her shoulders.
“Why do you call him that, Jules?” Susie drew her parka tighter, poorly-sewn patches folding and creasing.
“Better than J-dawg. How was the southern drawl?” Julie sassed back, leaning back into Frank’s arms.
“On-point.”
“Thanks, baby. Mwah.” And the two were in each other’s mouths again.
“They’d make out with the masks on if they could. Julie needs some kissy lips on that thing and they’d swap paint every second of the day.”
“Mhm. Can you not use my shoulder as an armrest? I’m not that short!”
“You are tho, Suz. You so are.”
“Kiss bricks, tall dark and spooky.” She turned her head away, sulking.
“If I could see them through this almost-blizzard…”
“You’re the only one not wearing a jacket. This is on you.”
“This hoodie has seen me through more Canadian-strength Mt. Ormond snowstorms than you have seen paint brushes. Also I meant that the bandana has frozen over my eyes.”
Susie stood on her tiptoes to wipe the ice out of his eye sockets,
“I forgot those were your eyes.”
I leaned down to give her an easier time, getting a poke in the eye for it.
“And they call us lovebirds.” Frank scoffed, “So, Joey, you’re really good at smuggling stuff. You pair get the drinks, and Julie and I‘ll make a scene to distract the cashier, then we leg it. All good?”
“Almost.” Julie interjected, “We grab some wine, too.” You could hear the smile in her voice. I pinched the bridge of my nose, “Fine. Deal.”
The gas station in all it’s neon lights and reek of diesel cut it’s visage through the horizontal snow. Suzie had slid, fallen, skinned her knees and whimpered about it. She was wearing a skirt and thin leggings, though, so it was on her.
“Stopped bleeding?”
“Yes.” Suzie whined.
“Good. The cash register is empty, not a soul in the place. Let’s roll.”
The doors slid away from them, Julie slithering away to the alcohol isle, Susie hesitantly following, Frank flipping off the door camera, before rummaging behind the cash register for the restroom keys.
“You two, beers. I’ll do the wine.” Julie began to peruse the selection of cheap gas station wine available to her, and Julie and I got to stuffing beer cans in our hoodies. I picked up a bottle of Labatt Blue, Canadian Pilsener, or so said the cursive label. Never knew what Pilsener was, but it sounded European, and I never could speak French. Julie shrieked, and Susie and I whipped around. A janitor had seen us, and had a mop across Julie’s neck. She was behind held upward by it against him, clawing hopelessly at the wood, kicking and scrabbling. Neither of us moved. For a long moment, nothing moved besides Julie, who was slowly weakening her resistance. The moment ended, I charged the man and Julie, smashing into them both.
Julie went down, the man, twice her size, now, went back into Frank, dropping the mop as he was caught. Something made a wet, sharp sound.
Frank shoved the janitor to the ground, the sawtooth back edge of a hunting knife ripping out a spurt of blood and some muscle and fat, shredded up in ribbons like limp red poutine. The janitor stayed down, only moving to draw shaky, laboured breaths. Frank immediately rushed over to Julie, struggling to get up.
“Jules, you ok?”
She rubbed her neck, breathing heavy, “I’m ok, I’m ok now.”
I heard Susie step back, my eyes transfixed on Frank, the knife, and the bleeding janitor. “Frank, did you stab that man?”
“Yeah, I did. Heard the commotion, grabbed a knife, tore the packaging off it and stuck it in him. Why?”
“I think you just killed that man, Frank.” A drop of blood fell from the knife, one of a pool forming on the ground under Frank’s boot.
“No, we killed him. It’s gonna be all of us.”
My eyebrows raised as Julie walked over to Frank, took the knife. She raised it over her head like Micheal Myers and brought it down into the janitors back. He screamed, the knife made a terrible noise, Susie squealed, I froze. Julie used the knife to paint a red smile over Frank’s existing grin, with unmistakable deliberation.
Then they turned to me, their papier-mâché masks lifeless and callous in their bloody grins. “C’mon Joey,” their voices sweet, “We’re all gonna be a part of this.”
“That would mean I have to stab someone, doesn’t it.”
“Yah, bud.”
“We only ever did smash-&-grab, and more grab than smash. Am I a murderer?” Frank answered, “No, you’re not. You’re stabbing a corpse-”
“He’s still alive! Look! He’s still breathing, he had a name, probably had a family!”
“Even you said ‘had.’ That’s good as dead already.” Frank’s tone turned from urgent pressure to dangerous calm, “Take the knife, and put it in.” He pointed to the janitor’s still heaving, weeping side, “Put it out of it’s misery.”
My voice broke, “I don’t wanna do this, man, I can’t kill a guy-”
“Joey stab the body. Stab it or we’re done and you’re out.” Julie slinked up next to Frank, stepping on the man, more blackish blood oozing out.
“Don’t make me choose-”
Their masks didn’t hide their animosity. I stopped thinking, took the knife from Frank and took aim with shaking hands. Julie said something behind me, and I brought the knife down into the janitor’s body, the blade burying itself in the corpse’s neck, blood spraying like a fountain. The body jolted, someone screamed, either me or Susie, and the knife came out, bringing with it torn muscle. My body got up, no feeling in it. It gave the knife back to Frank, who gave it to Susie, boots splattering the blood around them, blackening and thick.
Susie took the knife, her mask turned to me. She was pleading behind it, whimpering and choking on horrified tears. I took a step towards her, offering a gloved hand, she shot back. The hand was covered in blood, soaked through the glove. She didn’t see her friends Joey, Frank and Julie, she saw the bloodied masks and callous hearts of three stony killers. Susie put the knife as gently as she could to the corpse’s side. Frank kicked the knife’s pommel hard, pounding it deep into the body, Susie letting go in time to keep her fingers.
“Good work, Legion. This is the most excitement anyone’s ever had in Ormond, Alberta.” And with that, Frank led us back into the black blizzard outside, “Good thing it’s Halloween so nobody ‘ll question the blood.” I choked on a laugh.
