Shinot...I fergot's some parts in the last chapter of SURGERY, LIES, AND OUTLAWS--The hunt for 20,000$. Well, I'll scoop up on that part, and gives it to yeh...Sorry fer the misplace...It's gonna be a lil' confusin'...
The clerk waved good-bye, thanking that he didn’t have to be bothered by that bag of fur once more. And as they walked out, Umi saw on a trading cart, the most beautifullest thing she's ever seen. A light-blue scarf with little black patterns of different shaded dragons. She gasped in deeply, and ran up to the cart, picking off the scarf. The female Clakker running the cart looked to the human with an eye squinted in interest.
"You like, huh, huamn?" the Clakker said sweetly. Umi looked to the Clakker, with a great smile upon her face.
"Yes, I do," Umi pulled her cupped hand under the scarf. Stranger walked up behind Umi, seeing her enjoy the scarf much. She turned to Stranger, showing him the scarf. "I...used to have something like this, but it was a bandana. I still have it..." Umi reached in to her breast pocket on her vest, and tugged out a blue bandana. Stranger frowned at the cloth, with all its torn holes, blue-purple blood stains, even some red blood stains, and it was so tattered, the wind blowing on it, it didn't even sway. Stranger nodded to Umi slightly, and walked up to the Clakker.
"How much fer it?" Stranger asked. The Clakker looked up to Stranger, smiling with its beaky lips. "Well...fer you guys takin' out all them outlaws...I'll make it..." she dazed off, thinking of a reasonable bargain price. "...10 moolah," she snapped her feathery fingers. Stranger smiled, and slapped down the money amount on the cart. "Deal! It's all yers, lil' fellah," the Clakker smiled back to Umi. She had her mouth open, shocked to say words. Stranger only grinned.
"T-thank you, Stranger. But...why?" He shrugged.
"Fer bein' a good partner. You've deserved it," he put his heavy hand on her shoulder heavily. Umi looked back down at the scarf, then jumped and embraced Stranger around the waist. He stood in surprise, but put his arms around her. She pushed off of him, and took the scarf under her hair, and pulled it up in to a bond with the scarf. She then tied it up and made a ponytail with her new scarf, with little strands of hair stringing down her face. Two long strands of th scarf hung down near mid-back. He was happy to see her hair out of her face for once.
"Thanks, buddy," Umi smiled up to him. He olny nodded, softly pulling the ponytail from head to tip. "You look nice, with no hair in yer face," Stranger commented, which she put the strands of hair hanging in front of her face behind her ears. "Well, lets get goin'. Them outlaws down in Mongo valley ain't gonna wait fer us all day," Umi nodded.
And there you have's it.
