VisDare 18: Inspect

So i've skipped a few weeks of VisDare...not really from choice as much as being blocked. But i'm back this week with a new installment, and once again i'm continuing the previous story following Alan and Kimberly. So yeah, this is the fifth installment. :) (part 1) (part 2) (part 3) (part 4) There are links to all the previous entries. Coming soon in the next couple weeks I will put up a master post so less clicking...I just didn't have time to do it this week. So here goes!

The two of them leaned with their backs to the railing watching a young father with his kid down the dock with a fresh catch.  Alan turned looking at her hazel eyes and quickly forced a smile before looking out at the water.  The fog had started to burn away and with it the dark water.

“Most guys come into the bar with clear intentions; it’s a game to them.  They stalk the bar, looking for a desirable prey.”  She placed her hand on his, “How long has it been?”

 “Three months.”  Alan paused.  “If I told you I made mistakes, I’m where I’m at by my own faults?”

Kimberly replied.  “We’ve all made mistakes.  What’s important is I can see it, even now you’re thinking of her.”

“For the only time in my life, it made sense.  Everything in my life made sense.  And now she is gone.”

              Danny couldn’t stop; it had progressed beyond the smile and into laughter as he sat with his wooden sword across his lap.  The dozen snails crawled towards his outreached finger and the thoughts running through his 11 year old mind were nothing good. 

                All he had wanted was to see the elephants, but his older sister had refused.  Even though their parents had gave her permission to take him to the circus after his chores were completed.  Complete them he did, quest after quest he defeated the orcs and ghouls until all were gone.  All that remained was the great and powerful dragon.  To be victorious there he would need a steed worthy of the adventure.  An elephant with its great war tusks.

                Now the dragon would wait, there was a greater evil in the land, his wicked sister with a fear of snails.
