The Longest Trail (RP)
Forum-Index → Roleplay → The Longest Trail (RP)*Up at the front of the caravan, Rooster was smoking while looking over the horizon. Something was off, he could feel it. Then one of the other riders rode up to him* Rooster, remember how you wanted us to do a count yesterday? *Rooster nodded his head and took out his flask, taking a gulp of the whiskey within it, causing some whiskey to trickle down his beard* Well, yesterday's count was about 746 cattle. And now- *The man handed Rooster a electric notepad and Rooster took it to look.* We now have 730 *Then something hit Rooster and he grew fearful. He looked up to the man and uttered new orders* Scan the area. Make sure everyone is accounted for. They've arrived *Rooster turned his horse around and ran down the side of the caravan. He now knew what was wrong.*
Do you know what lies beyond?
Do you want to?
Or has your curiosity reached a nervous end?

Gwen's eyes widen at the sight of the creature chasing Reyna and Sage. She didn't have any weapons, she wasn't allowed to buy one. So she is forced to stand there and helplessly watch the sight. Geo's joke sounds very faint against the beating of Gwen's heart. Her hands tighten on the railing in front of her.
*They were right on his heels and with every jump they got closer. Rooster looked down at a metal brace on his arm and quickly deactivated a section of the fence to make it back in before shutting it down and trapping the creatures outside of the fence. Rooster turned his head around and saw the beast try to break through the shield before giving up. But one stayed for a moment, watching Rooster. It had a blue blood oozing from it's right eye and part of its head as it stood there watching him for a minute before leaving as well. Rooster looked back towards Reyna who he lowered to the ground.* I told you not to walk outside the fence, little Rei. *Reyna looked up at him and spoke in a quiet voice* Its Reyna, sir

Gwen rubs her hands, which are sore from gripping the railing so tightly. She slides off the side of the wagon with the intentions of making sure Reyna is okay, but two bulky men catch her eye. In their hands are crumpled up pieces of paper. There is a sneer on both of their faces. Their mouths are badly misshapen, almost as if it had been broken one too many times. One of them has badly swollen gums, which makes his teeth stick out, giving him buck tooth look. The other's nose is broken so badly, it's amazing that he can breathe.
"Iz thiz yourz?" The buck tooth man asks Luke. He smiles an ugly smile and nudges his brother.
"Pfft, is this kid really wasting his time with art? That's not a real man's job" broken nose adds.
"We zhould man him up 'on't 'ou think?" Buck tooth sneers. They clench their fists and try to climb onto the wagon.
"What do these two bad cases of incest think they are doing?" Gwen 'accidentally' mutters outloud. It seems to go unheard to the two meatheads, who give up trying to get into the wagon.
