Chronicles of the Pumpkin King.

As Tech was noticing he was there, he was here, and he was when, he looks down at his hands clasping them together and begins to pray. "Lord who are the Lord of my lords, please forgive my stupidity and my ignorance. I'm asking for your strength, your love, and your vision, of a Bright new world. Lord I am on the front line. Lord I am battling for you Lord. I stand strong for you Lord but, my lord, I am afraid. I am scared. I am asking for your blessings for your holy ointment to help me walk my own lines. I am not afraid but I am fearful, Please understand Lord the strength that drives me is gifted by an unknowing source of ever flowing love. Lord I invite you into my heart, my soul, my senses. My flesh is of your flesh my love is of your love Lord. See inside my soul my love for you is undying through all the gods we find mercy with you. Thank you Lord for this day and yesterday and Lord we pray that we never see the tomorrow that we seen in a projection on the wall. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen."

He looks over at heavens, Mike of the moment, and said very quietly with suspicion in his mind, "How much did you here."

Mike gave him a smirk and said "I prayed with you. Your my strength today Tech, for you said everything on my mind, you said everything exactly when I needed to hear it for some times I hear exactly what you need to hear somewhere else right before I tell."

Tech with a confused look on his face says, "What you mean."

Mike explains I was listening to your prayer, yes. I was also before that listening to a friend explain to a friend, Fear and stupidity."

Tech begins to sigh but Mike stops him and says, "She said to her friend of friends, Fear is for smart people."

Tech quirks his head to the right and says, "huh"

Mike says with a similar bout of fear lurking behind his positions, "Fear is normal. To fear and move with fear makes, Bravery a real word."

Tech begins to speak but, Mike cuts him off with a special note of remembrance, "For no fear seems cooler, I guess, if your stupid, because no fear makes you stupid, because, you get messy. You forget that your humanoid, and make mistakes, so you quit planning to f**k up. So you forget to plan for a plan b. in the first place. Remember you see you there, here, when, and everywhere. Remember, that means at least, plan a, b, c, and d already."

Mike stops for a minute thinking of everything horrible he could possibly imagine in a time that horrible is all that happens, and said to Mike, "I guess that makes Brave, for not just me, but for blaze, for Vinson, for Jihan, for Scock, For the Maxwells, the Fords, The Schumachers, The Ryan's, but also for the Trimble's of rector line of bad a*s bitches bro."

Mike says, there's also some truth to that for a Ryan line of Faulkenberry, Holland, Mitcham, Mills, and Millikan line. But you have time before you deploy. Do you want to come have a drink with some of us smokers in a ventilated area." With that Mike winked at him and escorted him to another area of operations.

Mike walked Tech from what seemed to be surgery room to a long hallway with no doors but doors everywhere. The doors were not seen because someone had to place them appropriatly for any door in the hallway could take to multiple places but Mike had secret key. The hallway seemed to be endless to site until Mike and Tech walked straight through a projection of another hallway that led them through an underground old school subway.

Tech confused just followed. Mike began to say, "Just in case, you don't know why she thinks you can lead, It's because now your learning to follow."

Tech looks very confused but understands because he has heard said by a women many times. "To lead you must follow and to follow you must listen. If you can't listen you can't even begin to lead in the first place."

The voice echos in Techs head. This is not the first time her words have echoed in his head. This time, however, he felt strengthened by her words because, a man had said them to him first. Not because he was a man but because he had something he had heard in his head before and he thought he was crazy but, now felt reassurance in the words of another souls leading him to a drink. The drink he was about to receive from a special new bartender.

As they walked through the subway they past a few doors till they got to one that looked like an old time saloon door. Mike pushed open the door and let Tech pass through to a old new old new world. The world seemed very primal, the world of an old time western. The town looked almost empty as the walked the dirt road Tech noticed, an old Version of John Wayne leaned against a wall with what looked like Old Skool and Jesse James. Laughing it up just a chatting away like best friends that had known each other their whole lives. Tech amused walked passed them as Old Skool noticing them winked amusingly at unsuspecting Tech.

Tech, had not ever thought that Old Skool had ever seen him before on any of his previous walk throughs. Tech raises his eye brows looks over at Mike whom then winks at Old Skool and Stars the back hair on the head of Tech and winks again as he bows to rebels of foreign wars John Wayne and Jesse James. Also to Old Skool, the rebel without a cause, before James Dean, had ever found his cause to be the rebel without a cause anyway.

Hearing these words from some other place Mike walked him into the old saloon, and began to ask Mike who James Dean was anyway, But before he noticed that the saloon in the saloon had a different breed of customers.

Tech studied the audience and began naming names of the Superstars of Fairy tales known about through legends of generations. As he was Counting Tinkerbell and Cinderella, he noticed Ursula and Jafar. Not knowing who Jafar was mistakes him for the genie in old Aladdins story of long time ago lore.

Tech more squilly than SpongeBob and more stumped then Patrick walked right by Sandy to sit with a few men, that Mike introduced as Geronimo, Saint Nick, and Klingon version of an old soul formally known as Jesus.

Sitting with those men would have been an honer itself but the stage lit up for an oh my God moment for None other then hero of musically abilities enter Center Stage formally known as Prince.

In her red sequined dress of a gifted fashion designer from a parent trap movie that no one remembers as a trap successfully set up by estranged twins, she began to address the fairy tale group with first introduction comically as Tech noticed a new old face flash her from Prince to loved new new face. Then a man whistles to show adoration for his long time cow friend Lucy now as Veronica. Tale Tell Paul Bunyan a giant who hung with New princess Veronica also nicknamed Center Stage by Groupies had met her before cows came home for Christmas. The Groupies who set with the Giant man and his wife Metric formally known to other generations as Metis or Lucy had a shine on their faces. The Groupies who they dinned with were usually sent here to relax after there wars where won or lost, for a drink and a smoke with other veterans of sometimes the same and sometimes different foreign wars. Though the wars were usually for the same underlying reasons. The soldiers were soldiers not the reason they were there to battle. They were not why they were sent. They were just proud to be where they were from and proud to represent it.

The soldiers of many of these wars though proud of their home weren't always asked or volunteered freely. Sometimes there were people over their heads who had Draft picks of their own in mind for a Sullivan train to make such an impact on forever.

The women in red announces a welcome to the new and a howdy to the old. The Groupies loved the way she shift from Prince to Veronica and then from Veronica to Ariel for her first number for the world to remember a mermaid of a different flock of fat beads just trying to be heard for tells where taller than hers anyway.
