| Post subject: | Blue II, the sequel |
(Editors note: The time line has been adjusted from 2008 (present tense) for the Lockhart portion of Blue shifting back to 1992. So 1992 is the beginning of the sequel where we left off with the reunion of Runs With Stick with both her father and Silver Two Trees.) 1992 the cabin: Runs With Stick stood there staring at the old Cunni at the table. "Mother help me, can it be?" "Is it really you Father?" The old man looked down at the table and took a deep breath. "Yes, I believe I am. Your friend here found me working as a janitor down in Broken Knee." "He has your eyes my darling, how could he be anyone else?" Silver Two Trees asked. "It's been almost 20 years Father. What happened? We all thought you were dead." "I still don't remember anything. I was told that I was found in the forest half dead from a shoulder wound and a head wound." Runs With Stick sat down next to the old man at the table. "I was 11 Father. You had gone to help your brothers. You wrote to us for about a year and then the letters just stopped. We had heard later that group of volunteers had been ambushed at the request of some of the tribal council members." "If you say so, it must be. I really can't remember anything other than working. I never knew my real name. The just called me Ran From Death." She turned to Silver Two Trees, "And where have you been all this time?" "The Federals arrested me and gave me a choice, work for them or go to prison. They said if I completed my task I would be set free to start over. It is because of them I found your father." She reached across the table taking Silver Two Tree's hand in hers, "Sam talked to me at the bus terminal. He's known all along. He said we are all officially out of work." She stood up and put her arms around the old Cunni, "I know you don't remember anything, we will be your memory if you wish to stay with us." The old Cunni took a deep breath, then looking up said, "I will stay. I will listen. I will be your father and you will be my daughter. And is this young buck my son in law?" "Yes he is Father. I will talk with the Elders and make it official. Too many things have happened to allow it to be delayed any longer." Silver Two Trees turned bright red, "You must be hungry my dear. I will make us dinner while you freshen up." He wrinkled his nose, "You smell like an old goat." Runs With Stick laughed, "Did I ever tell you about the architecture of bus terminals?" Continued. |
