"Hey Hemichi wait up", Cheveo said as she ran toward him, "aren't you gonna walk me home". He sighed and reluctantly said "well obviously yes now". "what you don't like me to walk with you" ,she answered. "well no I just am in a hurry today". "how's that?","well thers this car and its being sold right down the street and I want to get there before its sold.". "oh ok" she said and looked forward.
They walked till they ended up in front of a yellow house. It was a town house with a second story porch and stuff. In front set a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda and on the wind shield said in shoe polish "RUNS GREAT 700". It seemed almost to good to be true until they met the owner, which topped that. As Hemichi walked up to the door he noticed crows were lining the high line looking at him as if they new he was going to die that minute and were ready to dive in. He rang the worn out doorbell as it zinged a dull tune. A man opened the door, now it was topped, the man wore a bandana as if he were a ninja so to speak but worn the strangest shirt. It look as if worn by being injured in a fight and had multiple chains for an out fit ,so to speak,with about ten rows around his waste with parachute like pants.
Ironically he spoke softly "Yes?", "Um sir I was interested in the car your selling" Hemichi said with a small hesitation in his voice. "oh the Cuda'", he said as he walked out the door and made his way to the driveway. "Are you sure?", he said. Hemichi walked to the side of the car and said, "well yes sir its in perfect condition no nicks on the seats, seem to look like parts have been just replaced from front to back and body is in wonderful condition other than the claw like rip on the rear fender.". the man looked at him and said a precautious face, "you really want THIS car as young as you are?". "Yes sir I have the money in cash right here", Hemichi said as he pull 700 out of his pocket.
The man looked again at the boy for a few seconds and finally with a face of giving in said, "ok 700 it is"
The boy gave him the money and the man pulled the keys out of one of his pockets and handed them over. The man said," If you think that car looks good during the day just wait till night time things get a little hot". The boy said, "oh I bet it'll show up a few cars on the block. The man turned as he was heading in a said, "Oh it will do more than that, it will reap them."
"I bet" the boy said as he and Cheveo who had been looking at flowers near the gate the whole time got in the got car and drove away.
"I wonder why he said it will reap them?", Cheveo said as they stopped at an intersection. "Oh chev it's a figure of speaking, you actually think this car has spiritual meaning or power you gotta be kidding me."
They paused as the radio played quietly. "but what about the damage on the rear part of the car it looks like a bear or something got it." She said. "no I don't think so just forget it all right." he said with annoyance and they drove off.
