July
Lenexa, Kansas
Mid Afternoon
A thunderstorm more reminisant of spring than summer was rolling in.
All over Kansas City the residents got ready for tornadoes that weatherman
was sure was coming. The exception to this was at the end of a dead end
street in Lenexa, Kansas, one of the metro cities to Kansas City. It was
also there that the headquarters to the newly formed Extreme Hunting Alliance
was located. In the garage sat Chainsaw and Doctor No.
Chainsaw reached in to the cooler and out of the ice pulled a bush beer.
Both men were watching the storm and all it�s fury. Dr. No reached into his
cooler and removed a Guiness. Pouring the dark beer into a pint glass Dr.
No watched the pea sized hail fall and he was glad that he put the charger
in the garage. He also wondered how fallen was going to get back with
dinner in this weather.
Out of the rain Dr. No�s cat, Gunny, ran into the garage, soaking wet and
with a field mouse in his teeth. He looked up at the humans and gave his a
look that said, �I want in to show my trophy.�
�I think the cat wants in.� Chainsaw said.
�Not with that rat in his jaw he�s not,� Dr. No said, �Dr. Hyde wouldn�t
like a dead mouse on the floor, Lita wouldn�t like a dead mouse on the
floor, and I don�t know about Jedi, but I doubt she would like a dead mouse
on the floor. And I don�t want to clean the blood off the floor that isn�t
mine or a ghouls.�
�So, you�re not letting the cat in?�
�Nope.� Dr. No said taking a sip of his beer
The cat sat in front of the door waiting for someone to unwittingly let him
in with his prize. In the street that the base of operations was located a
truck came down the road and parked it self in the driveway behind Fugitives
car. Out of it came a large black man and an Asian woman, both holding
brown paper sacks.
�Fallen�s here with the food.� Dr. No said rather unnecessarily
Fallen rushed into the garage trying to minimize his exposure to the hail
falling from the sky, Jedi on his heels. �Where do you want this?� Fallen
asked
�In the kitchen. I�ll be up shortly Just let me finish this beer.� Dr. No
said to his comrade
�Alright.� He said opening the door.
Gunny saw his chance and he bolted in. He knew they would slip up and he
was in with his prize. He was already starting to wonder who he would show
his prize to. Dr. No saw Gunny rush in and almost spat his beer out in
surprise. �Don�t let Gunny�Never mind.� He said.
-_-_-_-_-
Amy O�Reilly, also known as Dr. Jacquline Hyde was in the restroom working
on her hair. She heard a scratching at the door. When she opened it her
cousin�s cat walked in and placed a dead mouse at her feet. The cat looked
up at her and meowed.
�You have food. Why do you have to go and kill a mouse?� Amy asked as she
reached for the dead rodent on the floor to throw it out. The mouse
twitched and she let out a startled shriek. Fugitive ran to the door to see
what was going on to see Dr. Hyde sitting on the cabinet and the cat killing
a mouse. �What happened?�
Amy pointed to the floor and said, �The cat brought in a not so dead mouse.�
Fugitive reached for the floor and the cat growled at him �Fuckin� cat.�
�He gets upset if you try and interrupt him while he�s in the middle of
something.� She informed him
-_-_-_-_-
It was a brief time later and Dr. No was done with his beer and was coming
up to get his dinner and bring Chainsaw his. The field mouse Gunny was
killing was taken from him and thrown outside. Jedi was bandaging her hand
from when Gunny took exception to her taking his mouse. Dr. No looked at
Jedi�s hand and said, �Interrupted his eating, hu?�
Jedi just looked at him as he got his food and went back to the garage to
watch the storm�s fury. Dr. No entered the garage and handed Chainsaw his
dinner. Doc No grabbed a coke out of the cooler and sat back down in his
lawn chair. �Chainsaw?� he asked
�Present.� Was the reply.
�Lemme ask you a question.�
�Sure, what is it?�
�In your opinion what is the best way, on a forum like hunter net, to hide
�Casual conversation.� Dr. No said.
�Come again?� Chainsaw asked.
�Like the football conversation,� Dr. No replied, �If a supe infiltrates the
�That we like football?�
�He�ll also think that the members of this list are not a threat. Then when
�Hmmm.� Was Chainsaw�s only reply.
�Now I�m not saying that it should only be casual conversation. But casual
�Yup.�
Both hunters continued to eat their Chinese food and watch the storm out
� I got another question.� Dr. No stated
�Ask a way.�
�After we killed Bladez, what have we done since?�
�I donno.� Was Chainsaw�s answer.
�We�ve done the same thing we do every night. I think we need a vacation.�
�Yeah, But where are we going to take a vacation?� Chainsaw asked
�That is a good question.� Dr. No replied.
�How about Las Vegas?� Dr. Hyde asked.
Dr. No thought for a moment. �Naa,� He said, �You gotta figure that there�s
�Well, what bout Buffalo. I figure that the Stormriders have things under
�And hence why we don�t go there Amy. That place has a big �Do not touch�
�Well, that pretty well eliminates any big city.� Chainsaw said.
�Which leaves us with the dilemma of where to go.� Amy said slumping back
Again the only sound that filled the air was the raging storm outside. The
�That reminds me of something I saw back in Philmont.� Dr. No said. And it

he least suspects it, wham, we bite him in the ass.�
conversation about nothing every now again doesn�t hurt. Besides, how else
are we going to spread this idea of a football game?�
side the door. The two of them sat there in a long silence. Dr. Jacquline
Hyde came out and joined the two men in the garage to watch the storm.

sign on it. So protectorates are a no-no.�
into the chair
three hunters in the garage watched the rain coming down in sheets, the
lightning filling the sky with it�s light. Across the street of the house
was once a garden but the owner has been in poor health for the past few
years and now it was just an empty plot. With a row of trees at one end.
Dr. No remembers many times chasing stray pets into the junkyard at the end
of the road, and chasing them through the garden. Dr. No�s reminiscing was
broken by another memory when a bolt of lightning struck one of the center
trees.

place where we can vacation. Cimarron, New Mexico.�
