Chapter 2
"Hey boys! I found one!"
Spenser awoke to a hand grabbing him roughly and hauling him out of the train car. He found himself sprawled out on the ground and unable to move due to the fact that there was a heavy foot planted squarely in the center of his back. It was a little bit after dawn, and the growing light must have given him away. He cursed himself for his carelessness, but accepted the fact that it was too late to do anything about it.
"Hey punk, you don't get to ride the railroad for free. Everything has a price, and since you got out of paying before, you're going to pay now." A gruff voice called out from above him.
Railroad workers are perfectly fine so long as you don't cause them any trouble, or in Spenser's case, hitch a ride for free. Normally Spenser would have lashed out with his bat with no regard for a body count, besides, by the time anyone figured out they were missing, the train, and Spenser, would have been long gone.
Unfortunately, the railroad workers happened to come across Spenser while he was sleeping for the first time in days. By the time he realized what was going on, he had already been pinned to the ground with no hope of reaching his bat.
When the man noticed that Spenser wasn't fighting back, he took his foot off of Spenser's back and proceeded to kick him. The other men just stood and looked down at Spenser with their arms crossed, and chuckled at the sight of the young man being beaten on the ground.
When the railroad worker had either decided that Spenser had learned his lesson, or grew bored with his grotesque entertainment, he stopped his abuse and turned to his friends.
"Alright. We'd better get back to work and finish checking the train."
As each man walked past Spenser, he added a kick and spit on the form that lay on the ground. Spenser felt his bag hit him on the back and his bat fall to the ground next to him.
He thought to himself right before he blacked out, "Things haven't turned out quite as I planned, but at least I still have my stuff."
**********
By the time Spenser regained consciousness, it was starting to get dark and the train was gone. He estimated that he'd probably been out for about twelve hours, maybe longer. It was summer, and the sun came up early and set late, so it was harder to tell the exact time. Spenser took a look around him, and saw, to his horror, that his bag had been rummaged through and the money that he kept in the bag was gone. He still had some in his pockets, but not enough to live on for any amount of time.
Spenser needed a job.
He tried to stand, but found that his left leg would hardly hold his weight, and felt a shooting pain in his chest, which he attributed to a cracked rib that had most likely been acquired by his beating that morning.
Upon realizing that he had received more damage than he had anticipated, he began to check his body for breaks, bruises, and blood. When he was certain that there was nothing wrong with his hands or arms, he carefully removed his shirt so that he could take a better look at his cracked rib.
His entire torso and back were covered in ugly bruises that made it difficult to tell where any real damage was. Spenser gently applied pressure to each of his ribs separately to see where the problem was. He hissed in pain as he came across the offending bone. There was no way to fix it here; if he had been in his own home, or at the very least had some household utensils, he could protect the rib from further damage and ease some of the pain. He wanted to sleep again, but self preservation pushed him on; he heard voices not too far off, and limped through his pain in their general direction.
Like the cowboy at the end of Western movies, Spenser disappeared into the sunset.
