There is a tiny old shack by a river, which is the edge of a town whose man made existence, extends for only a quarter mile. As the sun sets, a figure in a green cloak slowly makes his way to the old shack, as he is walking he hears the guards coming up the trail, so he jumps in the bushes and waits till they pass. Right as he gets settled in the guards come around the bend and pass by him, he waits their till he is sure they are gone then jumps back onto the trail and continues on his way. When he finally reaches the house he stops to study the different escape routes he has to use. Then he proceeds to the door and knocks on it.
As Scott was cooking dinner in his tiny shack he had just finished talking to the captain of the guard, who told him that there was an escapee from the prison and that h is heading out of town, so scot thanked the captain and told him that if he ran up on the escapee he would be the first to know. The guards searched his house then left just as they had come. Scott went back into his house to finish his dinner and just as he picked up his bowl, saw the contents missing. He ran back outside and shouted after the guards”you dirty rotten thieves come fight me like a man or pay for my dinner”. After his rage had cooled he went back inside to scavenge what was left of his dinner. Just as he took his first bite there was a knock on the door, being irate at the guards who came to his house earlier he got up and answered the door, standing just outside was a stranger he had seen before but could not remember his name,” what do you want ya bloody fool, don’t you know you could be killed knocking on a strangers door like that”. The stranger just stands there for a moment then answers” is that how one would great his old friend from the Great War.” “Im so sorry come on in replies Scott, would you like anything to drink, the guards came and ate what was left of all my food but I’ll see what I can find if you want some.”
So they both enter the house and go to the kitchen where he had his soup but all that was there now was an empty bowl. He got the stranger some water and they sat there and talked about the good old time when they were kids running around in the wood playing tag.
