Cross's Location, The Aftermath of The Farmer's Market..
Cross went out for a walk. He had been training all day with Rider, so had to get something to eat. He asked Sarah if she wanted something. Sarah asked for some donuts. Cross was walking, he saw an elder man on the side, sleeping and sitting in a rocking chair with a plasma shotgun clutch in his hand. Since Cross was new to the place, he had to ask around. The old man in the rocking chair was his first option. Cross took a deep breath, walked towards the sleeping old man in the rocking chair, and tapped him on his shoulder. Excuse me?" The old man snorted and awoke, pointing his full gauged plasma shotgun at Cross. " Who the hell are you?!" Cross rolled his eyes and said: Woh!" I didn't come here to start anything." I just wanted to ask you a question. The old man cocked by his shotgun and said: Don't move a muscle. The old man grabbed his straw hat and placed it on top of his wrinkly head. " What do you want?" Cross sucked his teeth and said: All I want to know is where I can buy some donuts." The old man raised his eyebrow and said: Donuts?" Nowhere in this area or this kingdom do we sell donuts. Only Queen Ariel and her uppity royalty advisors get the good food and pastries, like donuts." Down here where the poor people live, we get fruits, loaves of bread, dirty vegetables, slabs of pork, and dirty water. " She cares nothing about her people." If she did she would have treated us just like how she treats herself. Cross widened his eyes and said: So do you know a place where I can get some food?" The old man sucked his teeth and said: Since all the shops have been destroyed to where they need to be prepared, I'll offer you some food." Come inside." I was making some vegetable pork soup. The old man stood off his rocking chair and kicked open the front door of his house. As he kicked open the door, Cross could smell the food.
He wanted to drool but didn't. He patted his stomach as he heard it growl like a lion. When the old man walked into his house, he placed the full gauged plasma shotgun over to the side and walked into the kitchen, pouring two hot bowls of vegetable pork soup. Some slices of freshly baked wheat bread were on the side. The old man elve sat down the two bowls of vegetable pork soup onto the dining table and asked: May I ask your name?" Cross cleared his throat. Since he was in an enemy kingdom, he decided to go under a fake name. The name he decided to use was Roger." My name is um... Roger." The old man elve started laughing and said: Well Roger." I hope you like my soup." It's my specialty." Cross sipped some of the soup and lathered it around in his mouth. The soup was bland.
It's very good." "When the old man turned his back, Cross dumped some pepper into his soup. He tasted it again and smiled. It was now just right for eating. The old man placed the rest of the soup into the fridge. " What is your name?" asked Cross. The old man chopped an apple in half and bit a chunk out of it. " My name is Lonzo, A.K.A. The Gecko." I'm an old war veteran from the golden era when dragons still ruled the world." I served my time in the army and paid for my crimes." Now I'm a free man living in the Farmer's Market. Lonzo burped then grabbed his stomach. He had to use the bathroom.
