Chapter 77 - Revelation

I walked out of the barn to come upon a sickening sight. Larry was flirting with Brenda.

"So, how does a woman like yourself run this whole place?" Larry asked.

"Oh, I manage just fine. Plus I have my boys to help out, I couldn't do it without them" Brenda said.

I walked up to Lily who was still on the gazebo, looking out into the vast nothingness... or just looking at the trees, hell if I know.

"Oh, hey Tom... need something?" Lily asked.

"Yeah, Lee and Ken think there's something going on in the barn... and to be honest, I think so too... I mean, what sort of excuse is "Mama gets nervous when the door's unlocked"? Like, seriously. That's the weakest fucking argument I've ever heard... and I've heard some pretty weak ones... like one time where I had a guy pinned to the ground with my gun in his face, he was begging for his life, arguing with me at every turn... didn't turn out well for him... or his people, the next day they were wiped off the map... but, that's what happens to those who rebel... anyways, where was I?" I asked, forgetting the topic I was on.

"Uh... the barn?" Lily said nervously.

'Well, he's a bit more... unstable than I originally thought... still kinda cute though' Lily thought.

"Oh! Right! Yeah, so... I might need some help with distracting that... Andy guy, to be honest... I don't trust him one bit, or his mama and brother... I mean, the guy fucking blew a woman's brains out! I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if they were cannibals or something... wait... oh fuck!" I said in shock.

"What?" Lily asked, confused.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Mark! He's getting "fixed up" by them, right?" I asked.

"Yeah, why?" Lily asked back.

"They're gonna eat him... oh god... they're gonna fucking eat him... and make us eat him too! That's why they wanted us over for dinner..." I mumbled.

"What!?" Lily asked again, shocked at my revelation, "What do you mean "Wanted us for dinner"!?"

"Well, they want US for dinner. We're the dinner... fuck... we have to keep this a secret, get prepared... if they ARE cannibals... well, they're gonna go hungry tonight..." I said with a chesire grin.

"What? You're just going to kill them based on an assumption?" Lily asked, getting more shocked by the minute, "Just... calm down"

'This guy's fucking nuts! What did I even see in him!? Well, he is kinda cute... and he's pretty strong... but, he's pretty crazy... eh, everyone has their flaws...' Lily thought, as a small blush appeared on her face.

"Alright... alright... sorry, but when stuff like this happens... the, well... the adrenaline gets to my head, I love a good fight... something from my youthful days... heh, my brother and I always fought each other... got injured a lot too... that's probably because of the heavy firepower though... anyways, I could be wrong... but, think about it like this... there were fucked up people BEFORE people got up from the dead, and started to eat other people... why wouldn't those fucked up sons of bitches come crawling out of the woodwork now?" I asked.

"Fuck it, I'll inform everyone I can to just be cautious... don't let their guns out of our sights and if they try to reach for them... pull out our own" Lily said, "I hope to god that you're wrong on this..."

"Well, so do I... now, I have to get to distracting Andy... love ya, ciao~" I said as I walked away, not noticing her face going from just a minor blush to as red as a tomato.
