The Last Bus Ride - First Death

Tweet

Mary walked a little farther from the group. She was very curious. Trees with emotions. Ha, she thought. That's ridiculous. Don't touch the bark. Hmm, I think that Flavoid is making this all up. Mary inched closer to a Baroon. "What's a little old touch really going to do?" she said out loud. This is ridiculous." She took her hand and touched the bark. Instantly, the Baroon started to sway its angry branches. "Who touched my branches?" screamed the Baroon. "Ah, it was you. Have a taste of my Blast fruit." Mary tried to run, but the ground held her in place. She couldn't move. A large green and red fruit fell from the tree. It exploded when it touched Mary. Poof, just like that, Mary was gone. All that was left of her was two her two strapped shoes. "What's going on?" asked Flavoid. "She's gone," said James. "Mary is gone. Blasted away by your tree. Are you happy? Does this make your day. We want to go back to our own dimension. Take us back home." "Foolish girl. She was warned. Now listen and pay close attention. If you don't follow my directions. If you disobey me or do something stupid, consequences can happen. Even death can occur. There are now 19 of you. Let's keep it that way. Lunch will be ready in 10 minutes. No more interruptions!" "But," said Ron Goldman. "No buts!" said Flavoid. "I am not going to talk to you for another 10 minutes until it is lunchtime. Go back to looking at the mirrors. That is an order." One death. One tragedy. Will there be more? Of course there will. Lunch will be served in 10 minutes. See you tomorrow for the big meal. Also, we will see what the new bus looks like and get an idea of where they are next going to go. Expect another tragedy to occur.
